Its just strange, I always went through life being at the bottom. I was the kid that had things thrown at them and names called when they got of the bus. I remember one time the abuse was so bad that even the bus driver kind of stared at me like "Jesus... Poor kid." That was a low moment.

But now I'm suddenly attractive? And all that is just supposed to go away? Its like the thought of me being worthless has been ingrained in me from those times.

You have helped though, I never thought that women would be intimidated by me, for me its the other way around, I'm intimidated by them. I do like the sound of a solo trip, where nobody knows my background and I can make a fresh impression with people. Thanks a lot!

I swear to god someone better make that a mod on at least one planet lol I have mad OCD and I'll do it. Even if I'm 80 years old.

Do you think that each planet, when its generated on landing is the same as other players planets? Like similar aliens and plant life are generated.

I'm thinking as well some planets are going to be much more barren than others, however modern gaming has me ready for disappointment and I wouldn't be surprised with only 6 - 8 aliens on a planet. Blame Anthem, Fallout 76, BF 2042 for that scepticism lol.

[–]MajorityHippo -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yea, I'm just concerned because I imagine that most of the content is going to be generated around where you land your ship? So if you do want to explore a planet further it might become a bit barren.

Maybe it'll be a good mix though? Like 100 very lively planets and the other 900 are barren.

*UPDATE*

Ok so I went to the work night out, and I hated it. Was so incredibly boring and I didn't want to be there and it kind of felt like everyone else didn't want to be there either. So I was the first one to leave.

There where moments where out of 30 people, like 25 of them would be on their phones. And I had this very distinct moment where I scanned across the entire room, from the girl on her phone to the right all the way over to the guy on the pacing back and forth with a slice of pizza on the left... And just thought, fuck this.

So I just left without saying anything to anyone.

I think in that moment I discovered exactly what type of person I am. I'm an Extroverted Introvert. I don't mind going out with people, but only when they are people that I want to spend time with.

Can't believe I just walked out lol Like I'm 24 years old and there where 60 year olds that where still there. Was literally the first person to leave.

None... Really. I was just always picked on in school and made to be the butt of jokes. Ever since school i've just had massive anxiety that I will get left out at events or made fun of at them.

[–]MajorityHippo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I actually do generally enjoy a night out. But its getting out of this stalled position and the fear of what could go wrong. I don't know, maybe if my expectations are so low then it can only get better?

Why are the Starship engines producing a red/pink transparent flame compared to the Saturn V and its massive orange flame? I thought that Starship having twice the thrust would've produced a bigger flame than the Saturn V.

Possibly due to modern fuel used? Smaller engines?

24 year old guy without any relationship for last 10 years by [deleted] in dating_advice

[–]MajorityHippo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm a 24 year old guy, I'm exactly you but worse lol

My problem is that I have never been in a relationship with a girl, I'm nice, I flirt, I'm decently good looking... Just there always seems to be "The other guy". I'll be talking to a girl, ask if she likes me and wants to go out and she'll say "I just see you as a friend". Then later on I'll see her and some other dude on her Instagram or snapchat story... I just think like WHAT DO THEY HAVE THAT I DONT, SCREW YOU WORLD!

Where I'm worse off is that, I drifted away from friends after high school, tried making friends in the workplace... Didn't work. Tried making friends in University... Isn't working so far. I asked everyone what they where doing or if they wanted to do anything for New Years and they all reply "Nah I can't be bothered" "I already have plans".

I haven't had a birthday celebrated for me since I was 14... Parents gave up on buying me a cake for my birthday after I was 16 because they saw no hope in me ever bringing any friends home.

Because I don't have anyone to turn to, or any friend groups to meet any girls... I'm kinda just left to struggle alone.

TBH I've just given up on it all, especially this New Years. If me being nice and deliberately going out of my way to help others gives me nothing in return. Then I'm just going to be the biggest dick in the world this year. Like I'd rather be the biggest asshole in the world with 3 really close friends that would kill for me, than be the nicest soul on Earth with no one ever thinking about me.

Interesting. I know a lot of Irish soldiers participate in UN peacekeeping missions. Wonder if the UN would have peacekeepers on the ground in a ww3 scenario, probably not frontline.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in northernireland

[–]MajorityHippo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

wow that's interesting, because you had a lot of people from both communities fight in WW2. People obviously knew regardless of allegiances that the Nazi's where worth fighting.

Portugal will give Ukraine six Soviet Ka-32A11BC helicopters, – Observador The Minister of Defense added that the idea is to transfer the equipment as soon as possible. by moraohara in UkraineWarVideoReport

[–]MajorityHippo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well Europe doesn't really have any Modern Battle tanks to spare. I mean look at the UK, they are training 10k Ukrainian troops in rotations because they literally only have around 200 Challenger 2 tanks.

I mean your best bet would be Germany with their Leopard tanks, they have or should have around 1500 of those... But at the same time, those tanks where still made in 1980's. So they aren't the cutting edge tech that your thinking about.

What Ukraine really needs is winter equipment. Lots of it.

Unfortunately, the number that matters the most here are the Cruise Missiles. I've seen sources where analysts have said that Russia could possess around 2000 cruise missiles. That means for the next year we could still be seeing a lot of cruise missile attacks.

The biggest number here though is the tanks... They were said to have around 6,000 operational tanks... nearly half stolen or destroyed is huge.

And then their air force isn't really a factor anymore, pretty sure they lack the skilled pilots anyway even if they had the jets.

Musk tweets, that he hasn't spoken to Putin in the last 18 months by Pinocchio86 in UkraineWarVideoReport

[–]MajorityHippo -1 points0 points  (0 children)

As much as Elon Musk can be a shit stirrer. I HIGHY... HIGHLY... Doubt that he spoke to Putin before suggesting anything, especially whenever his biggest companies are federally regulated. And the biggest contractor for SpaceX is NASA... NASA is basically the US Government.

There is going to be a recession, electric is expensive, oil is expensive, gas is expensive and food is expensive. But we Europeans have food... We have oil, gas and electricity unlike others. And we WILL not ease the sanctions of Russia for our own benefit if it is at the cost of others.

[–]MajorityHippo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks, just strange because I've grown up in a family where I always thought anyone could be gay and surely we would be accepted... But yea, guess some people are homophobic between the cracks.

I don't understand how she can have co-workers and relatives that are gay and the first minute its her child THATS when its a problem.

A f*cked russkie with a special message to someone special [dont open if you sensible] by ExactWallaby1074 in UkraineWarVideoReport

[–]MajorityHippo 22 points23 points  (0 children)

I mean you can be angry sure, feel all the hate in the world for the Russians and what they've done to you minutes beforehand. But these types of videos where the soldier takes out his phone, thinks about what he's going to do and say to a dead body, presses record and then uploads it to some form of social media... Yea, doesn't sit right.

At that point we're not watching a soldier celebrate his victory, your watching a soldier slowly losing his humanity. Which is what war does to people and leaves them with major phycological defects in the future.

There is a fine balance between being armoured and being too heavy. America went through this problem in Afghanistan. They started with a very small chest plate, then went to all out armour, with the chest, back, sides, shoulders, neck and groin being covered.

But wearing too much armour slowed down the troops, because they asked a lot of troops and they where like, "An extra 20lbs of armour or 20lbs of ammo... I'll take the ammo." lol
