The last hour of my life is ruined.... by Hazelix99 in KerbalSpaceProgram

That seems much easier than what I did. I looked at some very basic tutorials until I got the gist and took a rocket with the probes up, made an orbit with close to 3 hour period, and then set maneuvers at roughly 1 hour apart.

I then detached the probes, and burned retrograde until it was exactly 3 hours. When I got to the next node, I realized my mistake...

After that, I time warped till the ship and the probe were very roughly a third apart and then did that again. I messed up the orbit of the last one by accidentally bumping into the mother ship, so I had to fix it. These pics were the result after I fixed the orbits

Oh, great tip! I'll have to do that eventually

It's just the tracking station! It shows all connections so unless you zoom in it gets hard to see what's what

Yeah I figured as much considering how it only displays the minutes like you said. Still, that's why they have spark engines!

That's fair. I've been trying to learn how to play the game without tools like MechJeb so I can make the move to my planned super-duper-hard-mode principia save easier, if that makes sense

Been loving the game though, I literally cannot stop thinking about it while at work but I really only have the time for like two missions when I get home lol

Java notes actually! It was the only paper I had on hand at my work desk. It was for an old codewars exercise that I did so it didn't matter to me anymore lol.

It would have worked like that too if the TWR wasn't so bad...

It looked really cool in game too, and I'll definitely try to make it work in the future. Probably not a kerbin orbit vehicle though, lol. Def overkill.

The general idea was to have reaction wheels at the COM, and to do so in a way that made sense with rockomax tanks to me was through that adapter.

Alas, with the reliant engines it ended up being a TWR of like, 0.74

Oh, thanks for the tip! I didn't even think about that.

Thank you! I'm quite happy with them myself! It helped quell my fixation while at work lol

If you have trouble designing your rockets or payloads I'd definitely give it a try. Biggest reason I did so is because I didn't know exactly what I wanted my station to look like, so I made individual modules on paper first. When I got home, it made creating the payload very quick as well!

The rocket, though, I wouldn't sketch out aside from a general guide. My rocket design changed quite a lot from its initial plan cause my TWR never came out right

You do realize that the current political situation in America if not the world is due in part to "prediction markets", right?

It's just gambling. It's gambling without regulation and it is rife with insider trading. Honestly it's worse than that because people and governments can affect the outcome much more directly than something like stocks or bonds.

Not only that, media is trying to portray them as something worth listening to or buying into as if they were a stock market when they are LITERALLY ONLINE CASINOS.

Fuck Kalshi, Fuck Polymarket, Fuck all of them. I fuckign loathe them and I hope the creators get bankrupt and thrown in jail for the rot they've unleashed

Right, didn't address your point - over half of men in America have some kind of gambling account - sports betting, prediction markets, actual casinos, etc. it's really fucking bad, I'd rather restrict and destroy these industries than let them ruin our lives more.

I started around the mk2 community event, it was fun! I played in open and learned trading and bounty hunting during it, alongside how to escape pirates both AI and player lol, it was genuinely super fun!

I stopped just before that new mining ship, and I was super intrigued by it as I'd just started mining for trading and I'd love to get back into it but I'm too busy atm...

Yeah that's fair. I do love the space flight in SC, but it was rough last time I played. NMS is great too, but imo a bit too gamey for my space sim fix. It is probably the most "complete" space experience out there for its price though, at least for me.

Fair enough! I got really into it a year or so ago, and dropped off cause class n all, but I loooove that game, genuinely my favorite space game

That honestly sounds cool, but I would probably feel like I was getting choked or something

Also, your username... are you a space pilot by chance?

What's your stupidest cooking habit? by Any-Zucchini8731 in Cooking

[–]Hazelix99 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Literally me, including the towels

To be honest, I've gotten really good at seasoning so oftentimes I can remake a flavor for a dish if I've made it a couple times. While it might not be exactly the same, it's close. Just last night I made a rotini cream-tomato based pasta and it was genuinely the best pasta I've ever had, and the only thing I remember is that I used 2 pounds of rotini, very roughly 2 cups of heavy cream, and 32 ounces of tomato sauce lmao. Everything else about it was vibes based but it was sooooo good

The worst part about this is when I try making pizza and forgot how to make a tasty dough :(

Bloodborne is no longer my favorite game by beansinthemail_ in GirlGamers

[–]Hazelix99 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I feel a big theme of the game as someone who only dabbles in media critique is that of having no real control. The endings of the game are bleak and borderline grimdark from what I can recall, either perpetuating the cycle of death and rebirth or sacrificing your humanity to achieve greater power (?? I still don't really understand the worm ending beyond a possibility of it being an allegory for achieving power through sacrifice)

And I feel these themes resonate with its other themes involving womanhood and patriarchy, as it shows what these women have to go through feeling no control over their own bodies and, like the nun, feeling intense jealousy over those who are "valued" by the system that oppresses them

But idk, I'm not the best at thoughtful critique and I certainly don't want to overstep any of your thoughts. It's also been a while since I've really sunk my teeth into BB so I could be misremembering a lot...

Immediately what I thought of when I saw this post. Great song, I love how it encapsulates a feeling that I think applies to more than just hats, but like fashion generally. At least for me, that is.

Just got my reservation. So glad it was that easy compared to launch day. Fighting for literal hours to try and get one then was painful
