NASA teams take SLS through fueling test to inform launch datehttps://www.nasaspaceflight.com/2022/09/artemis-i-fueling-test/As part of continued troubleshooting and seal replacement validation efforts, teams at the Kennedy Space Center in Florida took the SLS rocket through a Core Stage and Interim Cryogenic Propulsion System (ICPS) fueling test on Wednesday, Sept. 21. NASA officials hoped the test would reveal no leaks of the liquid hydrogen (LH2) system, which has so far plagued the agency in all fueling operations where the commodity was loaded onto SLS at the pad.Sep 21, 2022 9:21 AM

Show HN: A couple of links about Stable Diffusion AI Generationhttps://github.com/AUTOMATIC1111/stable-diffusion-webui/wiki/FeaturesI've been studying Stable diffusion for some days and this Github page I linked in the title shows the incredible power that Stable Diffusion has Right now, and it is growing everyday. I think people on HN ought to know and discuss about it, and share their ideas and discoveries.It can do text-to-image out of nothing with a customer-grade GPU, and image-to-image for incredible variations that you can guide with the criteria you choose.https://imgur.com/a/Jt76AHAJust check that picture out, I made variations from the base picture top-left, either to black-ened, or to white-ened, or to the combination of both... The power is infinite. It is called "Prompts matrix".You can run it from your own computer preferably with 8GB VRAM+ GPU, or cloud-based virtual machine (I managed to run it on Microsoft Azure but not for cheap). To install Stable Diffusion and experiment for yourself, simply follow this page guidance: https://rentry.org/voldy#-guide-If you just want to try out simply you can cheSep 20, 2022 12:06 PM

Show HN: Thanks to SMC, firefighters with iPhones can track stairs climbed (OSS)https://stairmasterclimber.com/appHey HN! After months of work and over 1000 hours of research, design & development, I just released SMC, an open-source & free iPhone fitness game for firefighters, hikers, tower-runners and people who want to become fit by climbing stairs with friends - The app can also measure and track stairs climbed on a StairMill/StairMaster machine. Earlier users using stair stepper exercise machines would have to use/purchase more expensive machines that pair with their phones, now they simply wear their Apple Watch (or keep their phone in their pocket) using instructions in the app while exercising. - Firefighters across the world regularly wear heavy weights/their suits+hose reels) while using the stair mill / stair master machine in their fire stations, as climbing stairs is a critical part of their job. There is no central place where the exercise is tracked, requiring them all to be self-motivated and self-disciplined, SMC hopes to improve that. - SMC is open-source, safe to use and doesn’tSep 17, 2022 10:37 PM

Ask HN: Why is Disney+ UX so bad?https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=32837397A few weeks ago I bought a one month Disney+ subscription to check it out. I have all kinds of problems when using their web player compared to Netflix and YouTube:- subtitle settings get reset every time I close the website.- the button for changing subtitles is in the upper right corner. Once you open the menu the button for closing it appears in the upper left corner. You can't close the menu by clicking outside of it, despite the fact that you can still see the blurred video in the background.- pressing space doesn't pause the video, but repeats the last action you did. If you closed the subtitle menu by pressing esc, pressing space will open it again. If you entered the full screen mode, pressing space will close it.- there is no way (afaik) to open a list of all episodes from within the player. You have to go back to the show's main page, choose the season (because it always defaults to season 1) and scroll a horizontal list (which always defaults to the first episode) using a buSep 14, 2022 2:07 PM
