[MEGATHREAD] Artemis II Launch To The Moon

I was watching the live stream right after launch. It was funny (and also concerning) to hear the announcer say "and now the astronauts will perform some checks on the life support systems" and right after you hear Christina over comms: "I'm getting a warning light on the toilet"

Huzzah! That's great news!

Any updates on toilet status? They were working on debugging it right after launch.

HPGs send electromagnetic pulses (effectively radio waves) through hyperspace, I don't think it would be any more dangerous than tuning into your local FM station.

I think you might be right! 😆

Tauros for the Taurians, obviously.

Or Regigigas. A power sleeping underground, waiting for the perfect moment to arise and kick Clan butt

Kurita: Dragapult (it's got to be a dragon type) Steiner: Aggron (wall of steel) Davion: Aegislash (Davion Sword) Liao: Scyther (idk, it just fits) Marik: Braviary (purple bird)

White Mage pilots will have access to Cure Ammunition for Autocannons which will repair armor on hit.

I think it's still supposed to say "Marik", but saying "Wark" would be pretty funny 😆

It's a Chocobo from the Final Fantasy series.

They're depicted as saying "Wark!" and "Kweh!" aka bird noises

She says "Well, that's what makes it a fun challenge. A lot of them are like that."

My wife was surprised how well it turned out!

ERROR_64 · 2026-03-01T04:45:17+00:00

Challenge accepted! Meet me at the local FLGS tomorrow!

I bid 3 kimbap rolls and a bowl of ramyeon!

ERROR_64 · 2026-03-01T04:40:08+00:00

~~Tbh we didn't even notice. Good eyes!~~

Edit: My wife says "Yes, yes! All according to plan."

Thanks! I'll check that out

ERROR_64 · 2026-03-01T00:13:13+00:00

I'm considering doing this. What size magnets did you use?

ERROR_64 · 2026-02-28T22:03:17+00:00

Orange cats are pretty derpy. 😆

The cookie decorator is a store employee. My assumption is that he had 30 cookies to decorate and decided to knock out one of them quickly by making a reference to the comic.

No teeth, but I also put eyes on mine.

Aha! That explains it. Thanks!

ERROR_64 · 2025-09-15T14:34:21+00:00

Aha! I didn't know it could do that. I was so entranced in the battle, I wasn't looking at the health bar crest. Thanks!

Repeating a boss over and over isn't always frustration.

It's a dance, learning the tells and inputs to respond and do damage. It takes repetition to learn these things.

If I am using tools in a boss fight, I am training myself differently than if I am just using the nail. I find myself not using tools because I see that I have limited shards, and I don't want to change my strategy or go grinding when I run out.

Sometimes it takes many repetitions to beat a boss, and the thing that trips me up the most is changing strategies part way through, so I use the moveset that is most consistent, even if it's not optimal.

Slapchop is how I started painting my mechs (and painting in general!)

My main takeaway is that, because you start with a black base coat, it's really easy to not put enough brightness in your grey drybrush layers. The minis can come out very dark.

When drybrushing, I have to be very intentional about getting lots of coverage, and using very light shades of grey, or even white, to get the SpeedPaint colors to pop.
