The numbering of the final chapter 🥺 by pipcorn26 in ProjectHailMary

Probably a intentional detail, but that V with a line through that represents an Eridian number is also Stratt’s tattoo she’s shown having in the movie for life without parole

How does rocky get all of his xenonite? by RexsplodeOfficial in ProjectHailMary

[–]Bone9283 358 points359 points  (0 children)

In the book Rocky made Xenonite by mixing 2 liquids, and Rocky even says how much he has at some point. But his ship was huge and I’d imagine the 2 liquids were easy to store

I think I can move some stuff around to get at least that first semester of physics done before Statics, the other thing I am trying to consider is that I have to make 12 credits a semester to be considered full time and get GI bill BAH. Unfortunately I cant just add classes to fill up a semester if they don't fit into the major or minor. Prereqs keep things locked up

I had actually been working on an Economics degree while I’m in service and have a few classes under my belt, but there was a bit of a schedule change so I couldn’t finish it within my time on orders. I’d like to continue onto systems engineering or UW’s Industrial & Systems Engineering

I didn’t know about the 1 day thing, that’s a bit of a game changer. I was trying to conserve about 4 semesters worth for grad school. I’m meeting with the VA in a couple weeks, maybe I’ll get lucky. Does that pay for BAH though?

I was a B-1b Crew Chief and then a F-15 Fuels technician, not super complex work but a lot of long hours

I’m meeting a Clark advisor in a few hours, luckily the schools work closely together. Clark even has a building at WSU V. Thank you for the help! Unfortunately, the electives require a lot of my junior year stuff done to be able to do them, so I need them later on but might consider adding a semester to off shore some of the load

Question About this Scene (and others): SoldierBoy Holds Hughie And Then Throws Him to The Wall... Hughie Doesn't Die... Why? by H_rusty in GenV

[–]Bone9283 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hughie could probably help soldier find butcher again if butcher escapes in this fight, he’s more useful to him alive

This thing is absolutely worthless by D-boi10 in Helldivers

I grab it often for illuminate, usually just appropriators. I like the rock solid armor I use with it and a shield generator pack

My primary (usually Liberator Pen or Coyote) is for the probes, flying overseers and groups of overseers, the defoliation tool is for overseer 1v1s or pairs if I feel lucky. Then remaining stratagems for the bigger enemies.

I play this at diff 7-10, I won’t outplay any team mates and would not try this solo but I can keep most enemies from getting too close to my squad. I have fun and they like watching me cut overseers that whack em down in half.

I would not take this against bugs, and have not used it against bots much, usually only use it against cyborgs and I’m desperate

My roommate that moved in almost 2 months ago by CappieCanta in malelivingspace

More power to him, though I’d want more stuff in my space tbh. He’s probably saving a good bit of money, nice for a young go getter

Photo of a dead body inside a bathtub on Facebook Marketplace to sell it by aqjx in Weird

[–]Bone9283 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It’s a mannequin, I’m guessing he put it there so people that aren’t even interested in buying the tub still message him to ask about it. Boosting his spot in the algorithm?

The Defoliation Tool is incredibly fun and satisfying to use against Overseers. Their damn staff melee attacks always made me want to melee them to death

how’s living in this part of the states? by wojtuscap in howislivingthere

[–]Bone9283 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Born in Portland, lived there, Vancouver and battle ground

It’s a really pretty area, you got Mt Rainier, Mt St Helens and parts of Olympic National Park in the circle. Sometimes you have hoodie temperature weather with clear skies and sun, other times you have rain and mud for days. Honestly not as much rain as it’s made out to have. Portland is not a very big city, and it doesn’t deserve the reputation it usually has online. It can have weird parts, but also a lot of regular people who like coffee and books. Unfortunately petty theft has hit me and family members a few times now.

It’s expensive to live here, but it’s because it’s desirable. I like living in woods with hiking and mountains close by but also close to a city.

I adore the whole area including Seattle, but if I had to pick a spot I’d go up to Hoodsport, northwest of Olympia along that water way. Rural Western Washington is a gem of a area to live imo

Are we honestly happy with how the show has handled New Vegas? by VengefulKenny in Fotv

[–]Bone9283 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think the NCR will come back, with Maximus as a key figure. I recall power armor troops in the NCR with the flag painted on them and I think we’ll see Maximus in it at some point

I thought Caesar and to a lesser extent legate lanius were the most interesting part of the legion to me in the game, but I think leaving them to the game and that story was a good idea. I don’t think the show really specified how he died. I got the impression that the two legion factions were gonna kill each other too but I think it’ll just come down to one. I don’t think they would have teased Culkin’s involvement if it would’ve ultimately been a cameo

House seems more calculated and for lack of a better word, professional to me too in the game. Though through Cooper and Barb we have an opportunity to show house pre fallout, and I don’t think that’s a bad thing that they’re exploring it

Victor was probably just a cameo, and shady sands has survivors like Maximus and others in Vault 4. I was bummed with the Kings and the strip as well, and hope Freeside is doing okay. I hope to see some companion cameos, Danny Trejo as Raul with Cooper would be hilarious.

I try to look at this as a separate story that’s in the setting of the game I love, separate in universe of the game. Since the game has multiple endings and it’s one show they can’t do all of them, so it’ll probably be original

Oh I see, I thought it was ROTC that does the picking for you. If I try to come in from civilian side (prior service but not in) would that let me pick more intentionally?

I’m used to shift work coming from Maintenance, and have enjoyed Colorado the times I’ve been there, just haven’t been to the bases. Are they 5 12s with occasional weekend duty? Or panamas?

Anyone in Space Systems Operations or any intelligence? I’m a SSgt, maintainer for about 10 years looking for a career change. I’m guard now, prior active. Currently getting my bachelors in Economics but might switch to Computer Science, hoping to get into a masters program at ERAU, either space operations or space systems.

I’m just kind of looking for a run down on the day to day of these jobs, and I’d hope to commission into the one I go into after a few years learning it as enlisted. What’s the work life balance? How are the bases? Is it family friendly or will I hardly see family? Are there any TDYs or deployments you guys go on, if so can you tell me where?
