This is the way.
This is the way.
Cyanoacrylate. Unless you’re literally soaking it in your food I’m not too concerned about food safety with where the joint is - but of course I’ve been exposed to so many carcinogens that a little super glue won’t matter
I find the opposite to be true for me, but I’m the type that will sit down and read a textbook for entertainment as well. Purely informative podcasts, not entertainment etc. I’ve learned a lot of philosophy and ancient history via Spotify actually, it’s a very useful medium for information access, for those so inclined.
Golden retrievers can swim for over 40 minutes without tiring - they were originally bred to retrieve shot waterfowl from the middle of lakes. It’s still absolutely a good idea to get a life vest, but even in a lake like this the doggo should be ok.
Yule.
Exactly. The christo-fascists love to promote the whole “prepper” thing of being self-reliant and ready for social collapse when the “Communist takeover” happens, but honestly we need to be doing that for the upcoming fascist theocratic dictatorship rn…
Exactly this. Also try Indian Madras Lentils packets (I get them at Costco), really cheap for a serving and microwavable. Also bulk Indian spice pastes if you can get them cheap enough. Makes the rice+beans gourmet for dirt cheap. And with coffee, I’ve gotten to the point where the biggest cost is actually filters. To help with this I got a reusable mesh filter from Amazon. Works well, easy to clean, and holds up (I’ve used it for over 100 cups now). Then you’re at like 10 - 15¢ / cup if you use bulk coffee mate and sugar.
For cheap food, rice and bulk Indian lentil packets can be around $2.50/meal for good sized portions, $1.50 - $2 for smaller portions and 3 meals/day. See also: ramen, potatoes, off-brand soy sauce, bulk dried seaweed (very healthy and cheap). use an app to track macros yourself and you can save a lot of money. This is assuming you have what you need to boil water, but even a hotplate can do ramen and rice, and potatoes microwave well. Bulk frozen chicken breasts can work for meat if you have a little more money.
Native English speaker here, I don’t have a clue what a “cold camera shoe” means either…
This cured my depression for a few hours. Thanks.
No, no I think that’s about right…
That would be an interesting one, because I speak enough old norse and Latin to pass as a foreigner from the far east (until they realise I don’t speak Arabic). But 2523 English will be unrecognizable, and worse, they’d probably recognize our “old” English. It’s like if Shakespeare showed up today, vs some guy from the future who barely speaks English and pretends to only speak an uncommon foreign language.
First of all, domes in general aren’t a great idea except for maybe greenhouses - at least on planets in our system. NASA and ESA have done some cool concept experiments as to what pressurized architecture could look like, and it’s a lot more like a cross between a space station module and Earth architecture.
Second - assuming we’ve adapted/evolved to the low gravity, skyscrapers are probably the way to go. That said, if we’ve adapted that heavily we probably have similar adaptations to the atmosphere etc. - in which case architecture would probably be similar to Earth architecture, but able to build higher assuming the same materials.
But if we were trying to colonize a low-gravity world, we’d have to use an orbital station with centripetal-force “gravity” and only research stations on the surface, with a science crew rotation every 6-12 ish months to prevent bone loss.
This is actually the plan for the Moon and then Mars - use Gateway as a station to resupply and host crew rotations for Moon and Mars missions, and eventually to support long-term habitation. But until such a station exists, Lunar Gateway will be used for a waystation for crew rotations between the Moon and Earth.
Space engineering is about to become a very high demand field, on the absolute frontier of human exploration…
I’d say say at least use a VPN. Most of the suggested security practices are easy enough there’s really no reason not to…
I don’t want interesting, I want a decent life, preferably not in slavery to the rich… Is it time to move to Sweden?
Don’t rule out Nietzsche either, with his ideas on the creation of your moral system, becoming a “god” unto yourself, exercising will through art, and will-to-power by helping others (and thus altering their lives and will in a much more effective way than harming them as a “show of force” / what most think of as power). I highly recommend studying his thinking very deeply when anyone abandons the idea of god. And remember, even though god is dead, in thus spoke Zarathustra the character (representing one of us, who knows that god is dead) never told that to the monk, but rather envied his ability to believe. Believing in a god is by far better than taking that responsibility on yourself, but for us, it is no longer possible. We ought to envy that kind of belief.
But at the same time, any dogma that harms us or others (Christo-fascism, all forms of theocracy, etc.) is objectively bad except to those in charge of it. Which is no one except one who “speaks for god,” and protestant Christianity has abandoned such a figure and taken on a life of its’ own. It helps no one, not even a person in power, and thus should be abolished.
But as I said, I envy those who hold other beliefs. For now we must take the responsibilities of god onto our own shoulders.
Only one problem - the relative velocity of the ship is the same. Yes, the ship’s vector got changed, but yours did too. Same reason you don’t feel centripetal force in orbit, despite the constant vector change at 9.8m/s^2…
You’re correct in that he would not feel anything from the assist itself, as the spacecraft is accelerating the same amount as him. However, the key here is that he appears to be dramatically altering his attitude with some kind of RCS thrusters. There’s not much use to that unless he’s firing the main engine, but I’m assuming no main engines were used as they don’t appear to ignite.
The leaning appears to be in response to attitude corrections, and is pretty accurate given the rate of rotation here. The way he’s bracing only makes sense in gravity, so I’ll assume the ship has an AG field (like most standard sci-fi ships).
The only thing that appears to be off its the acceleration at the end …
I introduce another option, as I’m much more detailed than even “1.” I can visualise entire scenes with the background and all, along with other sensory experiences such as touch, taste, and smell with complete realism. Very useful being in engineering. I do watch the referenced content, but it’s more to “enrich the dataset” so to speak, just for inspiration and to provide more details to imagine later. Sometimes I’ll just turn it off and go with the fantasy instead.
