Thought you asked about VR and Google Cardboard? Don’t know anything about streaming, but there is/usd to be a couple of forum threads on VR & would be surprised if someone hasn’t tried Cardboard...
The Quest To Find Raxxla

Yes, my idea is next: elite can show 3D on screen in left-right format. Sooo if you stream it to phone and use cardboard to watch it should give 3D. Basically u can do it by sort of remote desktop soft.
You can do other stuff, open cardboard back, run camera app with back camera active and watch on screen
. But then you must maintain exaxct position to see 3D.We have an insider (H_Z) in that part of the world keeping an eye on the root vegetables market, just in case!
(Not saying anything about Brexit mind, just in case Big Boris is listening!)
We do Ok with the root vegetables up here.
Just don’t try drinking, smoking or eatin out and you will get by, if you vissit.

Extensive studies often sponsored by Multi-Billion $ Corporations... Please do yourself a favor and always take "studies were performed" with a huge grain of salt.
(it's common practice these days to simply purchase studies, it's completely normal for the institutes to literally ask the desired/preferred outcome of any study)
Radiation intensity is one thing. Naturally it can be harmful at high intensity, which isn't the case for mobile phones.
BUT.... the biggest threat Radiation typically poses is dose and exposure over [t].
So if you see very young people (even small kids) operating Smartphones or being chatty on them, they're doing nothing else than holding an active VHF/SHF Transmitter with extreme PRF right next to their body or head. And they get alot of exposure over the years due to intensive usage.
PS.
Similar things were stated about WLAN installations, totally harmless and no factor at all. "WLAN everywhere" was all the rage.
Well, in fact they're so "harmless" that both civilian and military Radar Installations even at large distances were jammed and a 5GHz Radar Blanking had to be implemented into the WLAN standards (i.e. FCC-06-96A1).
I remember our old Airframe (fighter jet) received a new and upgraded RWR decades ago (Radar Warning Receiver), fully tested and calibrated by the manufacturer.
Well, the sorties we did with this brand new RWR were.... let's just say "rather surprising".
We ended up seeing the device literally being jammed into oblivion by surface signals, rendering it nearly unusable for months. Only over open sea it was found usable and fully functional.
Manufacturer had to analyze the results and found out the Equipment wasn't at fault. It was merely bombarded with EM signals from the populated ground in a huge frequency spectrum. Much worse, much more intense and much broader then they had expected based on all civilian rules, regs and certifications guiding the production of EM-capable consumer devices.
It wasn't until a few Software updates later that the new Equipment worked to full satisfaction.
All I'm saying is... things aren't "all safe, sound & shiny" as the industry would love to make its "consumers" believe.
There's so much conflicting information out there on the safety / hazards of trusting industrial giants in technology, media, medicine etc, etc these days that it's sometimes wiser to err on the side of caution.
Society still seems to be getting ever sicker despite apparent advances in one direction or another...
Dont worry....there may be a fountain of youth on Raxxla!
Until then, think we need to balance safety, with actually living our lives without being scared to leave home
non-ionizing EM radiation is not the same as ionizing radiation. There is not the same exposure with time profile. Trouble is most people just hear 'Radiation' and think atom bombs..
You radar detector is probably triggered by a few micro-watts of signal. Even 1m from a wifi router the power levels are negligable in terms of human exposure, and the SAR limits (regulatory radiation limits) are very conservative. Interfering with sensitive instruments is a totally different kettle of fish to cooking humans.
I think we've gone far enough off topic now..

Back to topic: Visited Parvati last night. 2 Suns nothing else on FSS.
Yeah, it’s just another of those things one has to accept as a consequence of the development approach.
It’ll be easy enough to just assert that atmospheres distort signals too much for the current FSS / scanners to distinguish specific signals. No real worries on that front.
Probing/mapping of non-landables is a bit more of a problem, but only really due to the names used. If we just consider it as a Level 3 scan, then the problem goes away.
Besides, we do know though that all the scanners are fallible. Off the top of my head;
- Gen Ships - if not near a body are still only picked up if within 1,000ls (word on the street, haven’t tested personally)
- Huge amounts of non-permanent surface POIs - not detected by FSS or DSS, but detected by ship’s radar and SRV wave scanner.
- INRA bases, etc - can’t be detected by ship’s radar, detectable by FSS and Probing (can’t remember for SRV scanner)
- Guardian sites - originally undetectable except by MK1 eyeball. Shows up on scanners following an upgrade from Ram Tah. Detectable by FSS and DSS. (I think they still don’t show up on radar, but haven’t specifically checked so could be wrong.)
- Lots of debris in space doesn’t show up.
- The survivor of the Thargoid attack on the Far God base didn’t show up.
For the INRA bases, to all intents and purposes, they could have been there from the start of the game. With being MK1 eyeball only originally, they wouldn’t have been found until something turned up to indicate they were there to be looked for.
There’s plenty of scope for things to be credibly explained away on that kind of basis.
Equally though there’s plenty of stuff where it would be credibility breaking.
It’s kind of a truism though. Belief is inherently a matter of thinking something without sufficient evidence, disregarding uncertainty and sometimes ignoring contra-evidence. Otherwise it’s not a belief.The truth [about Raxxla] is out there...
Having said that, I've never found a "belief" that wasn't 50% "lie" either.
Also, it’s a slightly esoteric and OT discussion, but I’d personally say that ‘lies’ ascribes a level of intent which is often not there.
Following on from that, a philosophical point for general consideration; ‘lies’ is a term which is well into the realms of absolutism. Absolutism is itself a belief and therefore subject to the same principle. Is the concept of a lie therefore itself 50% or more a lie?
(Sorry for the OT folks, I just enjoy an abstract philosophical discussion once in a while!
)@Macros Black - Still on the hunt for a NS binary, in close proximity to each other, near Sag A. Trouble is, although I'm pretty technical in my own little field; sound, video & general internet type things, are not remotely my bag quite honestly (I'm getting old!), and playing on PS4 certainly doesn't help. Before I invest a hugh amount of time, are you (or anybody else) able to work with the following format, to pull out some useful comparisons? I know that the current raw form will not be much help, without somebody more capable than I lending a hand...
This also got me wondering....The radio source found 1kly above Sol that didn't "quite" line up with Sag A* - I wonder if it could originate from this massive (seemingly largely unexplored) field of neutrons?

Yeah that's the kind of thing I had hoped somebody could help with. There are distinct differences for different star configurations. Presumably due to gravitational effects
I've also seen some "unusual" witch space on some jumps in this area, including
a) a pronounced tunnel just before exit, with lots of upper central lights
b) and what I can only describe as "green orbs"

Thank you for beating me to this. I spent many years in the early aughts working on this and you’re right, they’re completely safe.
Thanks CMDR. I'll run them through Audacity for comparison. I'm no audio expert, but if I fiddle long enough... Even a blind chicken may come across a grain.
Dont worry....there may be a fountain of youth on Raxxla!

Fountain of youth? I thought it was a hair restorer!!

I’ve either had too much whisky, or not enough, cos I didn’t understand that!
Isn’t Absolut vodka? I prefer whisky, or brandy!
That would do me! Hmmm. Maybe a waist reducer would help as well!
