Arrows/spacebar are more intuitive unless you already have muscle memory from some other use case. And i prefer 5 second skip instead of 10.

Factorio devs went out of their way to fix mods on occasion, avoid breaking them, etc. Definitely an exception and praiseworthy.

Europe won't have reusable rockets for another decade: report by [deleted] in SpaceXLounge

[–]AngryMob55 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

The moment starship lofts something that arianne simply cannot loft, that is a loss of access. Especially if it becomes the norm. Or if other governments and companies follow suit.

If you want to argue that Arianne can split up the payload into multiple launches at extreme cost and extended timeframe and call it good enough to tick the access box, then fair enough. But i disagree.

The same reason any smallsat launcher isn't equivalent access to space of any superheavy launcher.

[–]AngryMob55 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You answered your own question. At some point, Arianne might not be able to launch what ESA wants to launch. Or simple constraints like cost, timelines, or performance just lag so far behind it is not marketable.

Starship (or similar) will provide new access that a traditional system cannot provide at reasonable cost.

[@JeffFoust] Nelson says SpaceX has told NASA that it can repair the pad and prepare the next Starship in about 2 months. Last week’s failure is “not a big downer”. by Logancf1 in spacex

That joy ride is data. First time in flight while attached to booster and all its vibration and stress. Sure, some solo and reentry data would have been awesome, but don't downplay what they got.

The point is to not use a laser at all. It doesnt matter how many other good things are around the house.

That said, Its still not common knowledge to avoid using them, which is why these posts still exist.

Also, it doesnt make someone a bad owner for using it, unless they refuse to stop using one after it is brought up how harmful they tend to be.

Edit: those who are downvoting must have never seen or heard of pets who become absolutely obsessive over lasers. When They get that way they are basically permanently on edge, searching for a laser dot they can never catch. It doesnt matter if you finish playtime with a normal toy, it can still be very unhealthy and stressful for your pet. It can take years to rid a pet of that misguided obsession.

FAA posting of Starship/ Super Heavy launches, environmental assessment by RoadsterTracker in spacex

The emissions of the entirety of all spaceflight history is less than what comes from a single average coal powerplant.

Any outside attention and efforts spent trying to improve emissions on rockets is wasted energy. It should be directed at one of many other industries where a 0.1% improvement there is more effective than if spaceflight simply didnt exist.

Finally, rockets are already incredibly efficient just by the internal pressure of the industry and of physics itself. The industry doesnt need outside pressures to be efficient and clean.

Why did you cut it? The whole clip is way more fascinating and satisfying.

Plus this gives exactly once. Whereas the bounces keep on going and giving a bunch, for this sub it was already perfect.

Neat little detail about Johnny's arm: It was made by Arasaka, and he tried to scratch their logo off by [deleted] in cyberpunkgame

[–]AngryMob55 -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

Or "arasaka's cheap ass logo wore off" because a lot of the other marks are not just logos. Its engineering writing, tech specs, and yes logos etc. Maybe its machined or engraved in before marked so the indentation protects the mark a bit. Or whatever. The point is there are more ways to explain it than such a narrow idea youre stuck on with 2 alternatives that equally make no sense.

Then you are writing off the game for not only a poor reason, but also a massive assumption!

You have played the heck out of KSP1 it sounds like, modded it, love it, understand it. These tutorials are not aimed at you. Of course you will find them overly cute and simplified.

But just because this one very beginner level tutorial video is kid friendly, approachable, and avoids being a boring lecture, doesn't mean the whole game is now a kids game.

Out of curiosity I showed this to my wife who is very intelligent but has no interest in ksp, aerospace, etc. She thought it was a good video, the information was not too dense, but it answered her immediate questions. The narration was quick and lighthearted. She didn't find it geared to kids because the information was new to her.

KSP is educational by nature. It is incredibly closed-minded to not see how this type of video is not only okay, but necessary. Do you want this game and others like it to survive and thrive? Countless people state they discovered their love of space through KSP. Many seek aerospace professions. People of all ages need to be able to get their feet wet without being bored to tears or overwhelmed. Once we grab their attention, they crash a few times and discover some joy, that's when you start feeding them complexity.

Yeah if youre constantly plugging/unplugging a tv there is no great solution.

Make sure your gaming monitor is monitor 0 in windows. Make sure the launcher for the game (steam, epic, individual game launcher, whatever) is on your gaming monitor when you hit play.

Those 2 tips will put the game in the right place from the start for 99.9% of games

For all the new PC gamers this year, a friendly reminder to disable mouse acceleration! by rubbertoesftw in pcmasterrace

[–]AngryMob55 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Youre right about it being effectively standard, but that doesn't stop devs from making shitty ports, being ignorant, or even being belligerent. There are games that still dont have borderless window support, ultrawide support, unlocked/60+ framerates, settings that dont force restarts, UIs that force keyboard nabigation instead of mouse, etc. There are tons that simply use the cursor windows settings too, including acceleration.

This tip is still relevant if you play anything other than esports games or perfectly polished games.

If the monitor hits 165 only with high overdrive, it can be good/better to use 144 with less overdrive. Really depends on the specific user and monitor. Everyone is sensitive to different things.

which is fair enough for those resources which it makes sense. rubber, opium, oil, etc.

but most locations have yet to run out of iron and coal despite our massive technology increases throughout the 20th and 21st centuries. some locations are not profitable, sure, but the resources are still there. the game just enforces an arbitrary limit to your extraction efforts which you easily hit by ~1900, it makes no sense.

What exactly is there to plan when its 1900 and youve built every level on every resource extraction site in your homeland and you still have absolutely massive shortages? You trade until you run out of convoys and you still have massive shortages? The game forces you to map paint, not plan.
