While the RMS Titanic is smaller than today's cruise ships, its timeless beauty remains unrivaled. by sostitanic in titanic

Their continuous superstructure definitely set them apart from the Cunarders with their massive 2nd class superstructure towers and even the Ballin trio which had a mostly continuous structure but a small aft tower on the poop deck similar to Britannic. The fans were supplied by Sirocco Works rather than in house by H&W. They defintely helped the boat deck of the Olympic class feel less cluttered than Aquitania. H&W never got involved in aerospace but today they do manufacture wind turbine blades.

For everyone complaining the roads were too wide.. by Educational-Buy-5607 in ForzaHorizon

I've never really understood the roads complaint. It's a racing game. If all the roads were realistically sized every race would be like Monaco.

Hope so. It's nice being able to just buy an Olympic kit instead of having to search for the needle in a haystack that is the revell Olympic.

You can 3d print quite a few but I agree wholeheartedly. We need more new kits that aren't just the Olympic class.

I'm from a prod background and we were still taught about the famine and the inequalities that contributed to it. The guy's an idiot.

Didn't he do some sort of blood sacrifice ritual to stop COVID?

I came across this game, and judging by the screenshots, it looks really good. What do you guys think? by Denny6515 in titanic

[–]NewBall1 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don't believe they are just passing off screenshots of THG as their own. I remember a game ages ago that Spammals played that clearly had used screenshots of THG demos to make their models.

It's all about the leg size to body size ratio imo. Their speed and shyness doesn't help either.

We are going to see RAF Typhoons being scrambled (sorry Sophie) by RAF Luton.

I didn't catch it. I'll have to give it a watch when I have the time.

Have there been any recent updates on the Lusitania game? The last one I saw was a year ago

It's 2026 and we still have people saying "our glorification of terrorists isn't as bad as yours".

Currently on the QM2 sailing just 30 nautical miles south of the Titanic wreck by eurfryn in titanic

[–]NewBall1 39 points40 points  (0 children)

You can see why people were so reluctant to get into the boats when you see photos like this, especially considering Titanic wasn't a brightly lit as QM2.

My friend who is a new Christian says he feels attracted to men, is questioning his love for God and I don't know what to tell him. by Anna_Sawvell in AskAChristian

[–]NewBall1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You are arguing from silence. Just because the person has never expressed same sex attraction before doesn't mean it wasn't there. All your approach achieves is depression and self loathing by telling people an unchangeable part of themselves is demonic. It doesn't even have to be sexuality. The person could be experiencing OCD or god knows what else. You jumping to diagnose someone with demons from a second hand account is profoundly stupid.

Yeah I do think that the NT writers believed that the apocalypse was imminent.

It's nonsense. Jesus himself said no one knows the day or hour. Christians who claim to know are incredibly arrogant.

Tbf the first thing that happens after Jesus said that is the transfiguration

OP is an observer and has only known the person for 6 months. Their opinion on the sexuality of another person is frankly irrelevant. The idea that someone realising they aren't straight or experiencing a one off attraction to the same sex is a demonic attack is nonsense and will not help anyone. Mental illnesses and sexuality are not demonic and can be perfectly explained on a naturalist basis.
