Of total road deaths per year, 14% are Motorcycles, and the 5 Tesla fatalities are 0.0008% of motorcycle deaths. I think a more poignant subject is how did they have us arguing over this so quickly? Most posts are just anti-Elon. Boggling...

Thanks! Haha... your right. I got my frame up and running with a Raspberry Pi 2 and it is temp throttling after about 5 min. The page could definitely use some optimization.

I’ll work on that next. Maybe there should be a setting to reduce background video quality?

Think 24/7 digital frame on the wall type thing that flips to the live stream one hour before launch and back to the countdown for the next mission. Critical feedback welcome!

Works on mobile but designed primarily for larger displays. For mobile (or anything with YouTube embed autoplay disabled) it displays the mission patch in the background instead of the NASA earth views loop.

Think always on, digital frame on the wall display, that auto flips to YouTube livestream for every SpaceX mission. I made it, critical suggestions requested.

I'd like to know! I was wondering this myself...

I'm testing Chrome (Same build on the same OS) and I see video. Must be an issue with the flash detection. I'll dig deeper... thanks!

Thanks! Yes, first time I sat down to use it I thought, "Uh oh..." But now I find the experience to be quite immersive with the monitor close and vertical. Right, now that I look at it the chair is low. Usually the arm rests meet the height of the desk which seems to be the optimal height.

Yes! Yes, yes, yes. I saw this when it hit the front page awhile ago and have been waiting to stumble across the proper hardware to try it out. I love vim.

Nice! This was my first thought... digitize it! Didn't want to spend the cash for the keyboard though so it ended up being a desk. I would love to convert it into a digital keyboard one day.

Haha. No there's totally not as you see it in the pics. I removed the black panel at the base which gives 8 nice more inches and a foot rest on the lip. I find my feet playing with the spring mechanisms for the pedals while I code.

- Nice!

- If you look closely I have some speakers mounted to the underside of the front face. They are pointed down and reflect off of the surface of the desk (iMac style). I originally wanted to fit them inside the grills but space is surprisingly limited once you try to fit a speaker box in there.

- Thanks! Been interested in better ways to hide the wires.

- I imagine that could be very difficult to pull off. ;)
