Repaired my #computer captains #chair in preparation for playing the new #starfield #videogame. The original #HOTAS chair mount I made from wood for my #Saitek X52 for playing #EliteDangerous broke a while ago. So I designed and had new ones cut from 1/4" aluminum using #onshape.com and #sendcutsend.com

Sometimes, I just need to space out for a bit.

Ooooo my desk mounts for my #warthog #hotas arrived today - they are seriously heavy duty/industrial design - much more sturdy than I expected. Can't wait to set them up in a couple of weeks when I get back from this next batch of work trips.

#EliteDangerous

Ordered some metal desk clamps for my #Warthog #HOTAS yesterday for #EliteDangerous - now I just need to order a desk top which is not some shitty honeycomb imposter from IKEA so I can actually clamp things to it...

IKEA's Linnmon products are like its #privacy stance, hollow, weak and lacking any sort of structural integrity - if you try to put any load on it it will break, horribly.

So kitchen counter top it will have to be...

Hier, j'ai fait une partie de DCS avec un copain pour tester mon premier HOTAS.

Conclusion : le T-16000M est une petite merveille qui marche très bien sous GNU/Linux (Ubuntu 20.04) et Steam/Proton.

On s'est vraiment bien marré ! Quel plaisir !

Ci-dessous, c'est moi aux manettes d'un MiG 29. Capture d'écran en jeu, après un atterrissage réussi ! :D
