  1. Our monthly electrical bill is always the same because they average it out. It is $230 a month. About $8 a day. A meal of a hamburger with fries and a soft drink at a drive through is about $11. We run the air conditioner about 300 days a year out of 365. Even for minor heat. Electrical power comes from generators at the dam as the water runs through it. Mother nature thus supplies the energy free (rainfall in the nearby mountains). The electrical fees are just for maintaining the wires, repair truck crews, and such. There is no fuel being consumed except for water evaporating as the rivers run down to the sea.
  2. When msfs2024 was first released, scenery ahead of you coming closer as you flew would pop into your view as you flew along. That issue has been cured by Asobo with memory optimizations. It was much worse than the videos above. I may still have the issue in the video above. I just never noticed it because it didn't matter enough to catch my attention. I always use Ultra for the setting to preload scenery not currently in view.
  3. Where I live (California) the temp will go over 100 F on average of 15 days a year. In the 90's about 60 days a years. It is noon here and the temp is 98. Will go up to about 104 in afternoon. It's 98 outside and 75 inside. Thank you HVAC magic box for changing the weather. Even the wealthy Pharaoh's of ancient Egypt never had life so good. Only Fans. Thank you Ostriches for donating your feathers !
  4. If you have decided on a Q3, then you might want to buy it now instead of waiting. BreitbartMark Zuckerberg's Meta Faces Potential $1.4 Trillion Pena...Mark Zuckerberg's Meta could face penalties totaling $1.4 trillion if four states prevail in their lawsuit alleging the social media giant fueled a teen mental health crisis, according to company fili

  6. PC desktop, Firefox browser, If I hold down the shift key and click to start Firefox it opens in "Troubleshoot Mode" and Avsim runs fast. But there are advertisements on the screen. PC desktop, Firefox browser, If I DO NOT hold down the shift key and click to start Firefox it opens in "Normal Mode" and Avsim runs slow. But there are NO advertisements at all on Avsim. Avsim used to not have advertisements. And ran faster. I'm sure Edge, Chrome, etc. have a safe mode or a troubleshoot mode too. But the key to launch in their safe mode might be a different key then the shift key.
  7. The Q3 has an excellent high resolution color pass thru (I think you tap the headset to turn that on or off). You can see your controllers when it's on because it uses a quality camera on the front of the headset to produce the image. Or make the view go back again inside the plane (I think by tapping again. PCL has tap pass through, but the image is very low quality black and white. I have a PCL. The pass through camera works by just tapping the headset.
  8. Ryan, your comuter will run a Q3 fine. The Quest 3S has old tech fesnel lenses. The regular Q3 has the best lenses in any VR headset, The screen on all Q3 is not the best which is why the PCL gives a better image, even with less quality of lenses. PCL uses dual QLED panels paired with Mini LED backlighting with local dimming, so the screen is better than the Meta which uses dual LCD panels which do not feature the Mini-LED backlighting or local dimming. The PCL thus has better contrast and more vibrant colors. The lenses on the Q3 are the best and sweet spot is enormous thanks to the quality of the lenses.
  9. I almost always fly analog gauges. With analog gauges on my msfs2024 there is no hesitation or other strange thing right after changing views and has never happened. I have over 500 flights in msfs2024. ChrostopherLow above says that he does not have the problem. Others say they do. The ones that say they don't are almost surely not fan boys. The ones that say they do are not likely to be hard to please haters. It is simply that everybody has different experiences with msfs2024 on desktop computers. How I change views. The numbers are not keyboard keys. They are buttons on the "Generic USB Joystick" which is a switchbox with 9 buttons and 3 toggle switches. I just tap one of the 9 buttons. Other people have assigned these same things onto the keyboard keypad. I also have 3 of those custom views assigned to my alpha yoke hat switch. My camera settings which might be relevant are these:
  10. I"m sure there is for you. But not for me. That just doesn't happen. View change is assigned to my alpha yoke. I flick the button sideways and the view changes. I flick it again the view changes back. After those changes there is nothing wrong with the view immediately afterwards. I never use the keyboard to change views because keyboards are not ergonomic.

  12. Stability is perfect in SU6. Unless I crank up the graphic settings above what my hardware can do. If I do that, then I get the issues others speak about. So I don't do that.
  13. SU6. I can successfully click the global rendering screen , works exactly as in the past. Love SU6. Clouds? I pay very little attention to the clouds because they always look fine to me compared to the clouds in real aviation videos I see on Youtube.
