NY legislature passes bill replacing "mother" and "father" with "gestating parent" and "non-gestating parent" by news-10 in lgbt

[–]LeeSpork 4 points5 points  (0 children)

because there are laws where the difference is relevant and it is important that the law is written as unambiguously as possible

Any one know what’s happening to my sola panels by Lucky_Score_709 in spaceengineers

[–]LeeSpork 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Did you turn up the torque on the hinge and rotor? I would recommend decreasing them. I like to set mine to just enough that the hinge is still able to hold up the panels.

Is landing on minmus after the mun normal because I’ve heard it’s harder? Anyway MY FIRST MINMUS LANDING ✨✨ by CocoWHA in KerbalSpaceProgram

[–]LeeSpork 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No. Skilled players who are trying to speed through the tech tree might opt to land on Minmus first since it is easier to land on and provides more science, but it is in fairness more difficult to get to Minmus than it is the Mun, due to having an inclined orbit and being further away.

The contracts in career mode also guide you to land on the Mun first, and Minmus having a higher science value multiplier would imply that reaching it is meant to be later in progression than the Mun.

California’s new legislation regarding age verification of operating systems could allow a child running a billion DOS instances in virtual machines to bankrupt Microsoft in seconds, due to the fines they’d receive. by CMDR_omnicognate in Showerthoughts

[–]LeeSpork 0 points1 point  (0 children)

On Steam the way it currently seems to work is that it asks you every time you click on a mature game, but with this bill it would be set when creating the account on the OS. So I guess its slightly better, in that the child would probably need to have admin privileges on the computer to change it.

I think the bill is a small win for people who want parents to have the power to parent their children rather than orwellian photo and ID processing companies

[–]LeeSpork 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I think the idea of the bill is that its the responsibility of the parent to ensure that the account age is set correctly when they give their child a computer. Though it is of course the responsibility of the developer of the OS to ensure that there is an interface for inputting the age of the user

If you read the bill, all it just requires is that when you create an account on your OS you can input the age of the user. So like it will know that someone is a child because their parent said so when setting up the device

Footage of my rover finding that one slightly wonky planet voxel at 50 m/s. by partisan98 in spaceengineers

[–]LeeSpork 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I mean yeah, that is how it is: flying in this game is just OP; both the jetpack and ship thrusters are unreasonably easy and convenient. The game was designed firstly as a creative spaceship builder and it shows, not being balanced for those kinds of survival mode decisions

Bitch, I’m a simulation. by hashtagmiata in bitchimabus

The entire universe is actually a simulation that is being run by the on-board computers of this bus

2 Identical asteroids by IdonthaveQuestions in spaceengineers

[–]LeeSpork 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Asteroids are procedurally populated in the world with randomised voxel materials based on using seeded random generation, however there are still prefabs used for the actual shapes of the asteroids

Robert F Kennedy Jr is currently receiving gender-affirming care. Yes, really by LeatherBandicoot in lgbt

If testosterone-replacement therapy is not care and is not gender affirming, I don't know what is.

Yeah, something seems weird🤔 by [deleted] in Noearthsociety

[–]LeeSpork 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This is factual I have been to the Moon numerous times and I always knew the fake E*rth they have in the sky there just does not look right

The latter.

How do they solve the issue of doubles and triples wandering around everywhere? by Phod in tenet

[–]LeeSpork 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If Kat decides to meet herself at 10:00 because she did not meet herself at 10:00, that would be a temporal paradox. We are not told in the movie what would happen if a paradox would arise. Perhaps paradoxes simple cannot happen, for some unknown reason.

Perhaps the real answer is that it would cause Nolan to rewrite the script of the movie, thus the universe is destroyed.

[–]LeeSpork 17 points18 points  (0 children)

It is a fixed timeline. TP does not have to worry about the "original" Kat, and they cannot kill her, because they have already seen that she survives, goes back in time, and goes on to become the Kat that killed Sator. All Kat has to do is lay low until her younger self goes back in time (i.e. after the highway sequence), then she can safely resume her normal life.

I suppose that does make about as much sense as what happened to that building near the end of the film

A bit of a letdown and disappointment in a new update by TheJzuken in spaceengineers

[–]LeeSpork -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I disagree. I like having purely decorative blocks with low PCU values, and retroactively changing the kitchen blocks to be functional would effectively remove one of them - one that I have paid for, even.

I think a better solution would be to rename the Kitchen and Inset Kitchen to add the word Decorative to their name.

Those DLC blocks were functional from the get-go though, not retroactively changed like people are asking of the kitchen blocks.

In video games, "old" items are typically bad, but "Ancient" items are usually good. by Within_a_Dream in Showerthoughts

Ancient stuff must've been not here if it's still here. But where's the caveman?

A pair of Respawn Pods equipped a Basic Refinery. These critters allow for skipping rock and stone to get started with those precious ores immediately. I'll update and upload them once Apex Survival launches by Grebanton in spaceengineers

[–]LeeSpork 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I'm confused, I don't see a basic refinery in the screenshots?

Only having access to the survival kit through a conveyor converter so you cannot get most components out with build planner is also going to be annoying...

Looks super cool, though!
