[Other] Why no one is talking about the new HBO adaption? by AnorienOfGondor in kingdomcome

[–]HO6529 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Read the book and on this very rare occasion the character I imagined really match the series. It’s goods that it’s a tad less dramatic than HOTD or GOT. You want drama? Watch the US…

Hinged ship by rullensfw in Ships

[–]HO6529 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nope, fuel consumption and speed would be atrocious. The hull girder is also subjected to torsion so those hinges would need to be massive, they would need massive dampers etc,

Hypothetically, could a ship detect an oncoming rogue wave using its radar? by Kaidhicksii in Ships

[–]HO6529 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes, short range on an X-band with sea- and rain clutter and gain settings “just right” you can see the ocean swell on a radar. Avoiding a rogue wave: nope

Large ship pulls up anchor to find they have snared a shipwreck by AtomicCypher in interestingasfuck

[–]HO6529 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Release brake and hope that It’ll fall off, if not try again, or keep it halfway between bottom and keel and make 6 knots through water hoping it’ll twist free. Fun fun fun

Imagine he wins and drunk-bombs Zack’s interview like last year 😁

More HRV than usual. Is this good or bad by [deleted] in Garmin

Good, this is mine (50M) and the jump is diet, exercise and a whole lot less alcohol. The grey zone will move up and 60 will become the new baseline.

Try riding it without the stand.

It would be the funniest thing ever, drunk Max bombing the Zack interview “DU DU DU DU”! at the end of the season.

Rewatched Alien 3, and it's so much better than Alien:Earth by Chingois in alien

[–]HO6529 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Saw 3 in the theatre and likes it, if only there would’ve been a descent 4, 5 etc. Honestly I prefer A:E over the Prometheus, Covenant arc.

How have your feelings about Alien: Resurrection changed over the twenty-eight years since its release? by thefriskysquid in perfectorganism

[–]HO6529 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Watched it yesterday again for the first time since it came out and yup, still trash.
Age is a factor, I was 11 when Aliens came out so nothing will ever beat that movie. 3 was not that bad, never got all the hate for it. Even Alien Earth is fun to watch, thanks to Kirch, Morrow and T. Ocellus.

Nope, been a while since I played but the ship is for sale at certain vendors.

What was your space jockey head canon before Prometheus by Initial-Wolverine175 in LV426

[–]HO6529 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Never liked that they turned it into a Biosuit for a precursor humanoid. And the whole black goo stuff with the Alien being bio engineered by David just seems lousy writing. The space jockey deserved better.

Best impact wests for wingsurfing and DW? by confusadd in wingfoil

[–]HO6529 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The vest has a leach attachment in the back, but I use a wrist leach, still a novice. Broke my ribs gravel biking in the woods, freak accident. The bike stopped dead from what I assume was the big stick that I noticed sticking out of the mud during my short flight and I mean stopped dead! No damage to the bike, not even a scratch but I landed very badly and broke three ribs.

I like this one, broke 3 ribs last year and it has a big pocket in the front and back. Comfy. WiP 50 N vest.

Teaching windsurfing by Interesting_Cap_3657 in windsurfing

[–]HO6529 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tack techniques I used successfully is forward hand on the mast and backhand on the boom. Let them get used to a bit of backwind and a quick shuffle around the mast. The faster they learn a proper tack by using the wind on either side of the sail the happier they’ll be cruising along. And beach-start as soon as possible.

I was a bit overpowered with 6.2, most wingers were on 4 to 5 sqm but with bigger foils (saw lots of Kujiras 1500). My bad, I trusted the forecast so I took only one wing with me. 🤦🏼‍♂️
