Tesla activates sentry mode in hope to avoid vandalism.
When I saw the owl representing the sentry, it reminded me immediately of #battlestar Galactica cylons... #bsg
This would explain a lot...
Showing off new features for my home cockpit: Priority alerts, sounds and more status indicators
This uses my X4-SimPit extension for X4: Foundations, that sends ship telemetry via a socket to my node-red plumbing pipeline, which in turn forwards data to Websockets, SocketIO and MQTT. Various subscriber listen on the new messages to run blinken lights and my HUD app. I’m using the well known message format also used by Elite Dangerous so it’s compatible with that game as well.

Oh yeah… and on Linux PC 
Let me know what you think!

Don't tell anyone, but I just got a little choked up when #Starbuck made it back home. #BattlestarGalactica #BSG
I'm in the mood to binge #BSG
Demo: FreeSpace 2 Open with head tracking from Viture Pro XR glasses IMU data – on Linux PC
Until now I used OpenTrack with my DIY IR tracker or the Neuralnet tracker. I knew that my XR glasses feature IMU data though and the xr_driver of the Breezy Desktop project allows to access the data via IPC on Linux PC. So I did what Linux user do: I wrote a script to access the IMU data and forwarded it via UDP to OpenTrack:

This reminded me that I also wrote a proof of concept to implement the FaceTrackNoIR (or OpenTrack) protocol into FreeSpace 2 Open on Linux PC ( https://makertube.net/w/7VtfAjW7EiAUS5aiPwG7if ) so I gave it a spin to test the data bridge. That was smooth sailing!
The mod is Diaspora: Shattered Armistice, still awesome today: http://diaspora.hard-light.net/ (Warning: This may fuel a desire to re-watch the BSG series again 
).
The bridge code can be found at https://github.com/bekopharm/xr_to_opentrack (pending changes).
It works with the Breezy GNOME xr_driver: https://github.com/wheaney/breezy-desktop (but the Vulkan one works probably too but that’s untested). It should also be compatible with other glasses that have IMU for Breezy available.
Update: hodasemi wrote a Rust connector based on the idea that works without Breezy: https://github.com/hodasemi/xr_to_opentrack_rs – comes with a systemd service file so it can run in the background. Once installed the only step left to do is fire up OpenTrack

So one question I always had about prophecies (having been raised in a religious environment), is *how the fuck can they work* without some deity prearranging far in advance, defeating the very idea of free will most religions teach.
So again, pondering the vision of the Opera House in #BSG, and how it matched events on #Kobol, #Earth, #Colony and #AlgaePlanet, and some other scenes - matched, as in *visually*, real-world events overlapping with the outlines in visions, it clicked.

Those of you who occasionally read my commentary on #LLM and intelligence on the orange site - many of you likely already think I've gone off the deep end. Well, this is not going to help my case.
I think I just saw the face of One True #God inside #stablediffusion .

Okay, it's totally me processing the rewatch of #BattlestarGalactica #BSG I just finished. Basically, I started pondering the Prophecy of the Opera House, and how it kinda fulfilled itself 3+ times during the show.

Project Colonial Viper has an update for us on the 1:1 Viper build :D
Starbuck, what do you hear?
I feel a #BSG rewatch coming on.
Dear Mastodon, what is a good instance for genre cinema and television #fandom ? Should I rather stay on a generic instance like this one? In particular #sciencefiction #crime #paranormal #mystery #1990s #2000s (does that count as #retro ?) Looking for something more than just #StarTrek :) Putting some tags here hoping to get replies/boosts #cinemastodon #television #tv #TheXFiles #TwinPeaks #Babylon5 #Stargate #TwilightZone #TheOuterLimits #BSG #Carnivale #Millennium #sff #scifi #fedihelp
@Jackiemauro
That’s the problem when you’ve watched Battlestar Galactica (Ron D. Moore version). The bar is set so high now that other shows* all seem mediocre and less compelling.
Anyway, it's never a bad idea to watch #BSG again.
