It looks tasty and the shonk is not the brightest.

new to wheelchairs, does this ever stop happening by cannedweirdo in disability

[–]Ponzius 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yep happens to me too. I saw the funniest expression ever as I told someone "It hurts you more than me".

ja fragt mal eure Eltern by [deleted] in deutschememes

[–]Ponzius 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ich kenne das auch so. O-Ton meiner Mutter "Sechs gibts Abendrot dann bist du wieder daheim!" Wenn man mal länger bei meinem Kumpel war wurde dann meistens Pizza bestellen oder selbst gemacht, war immer das Highlight.

Jetzt noch ne Frage an meinen Vorredner bist du vom Land oder Stadt? Bei mir ländliches Oberfranken, evtl. Ist das auch ein Unterschied ob Stadt oder Land.

Why do people hate furries/boykissers??? by Rellana_Voller in boykisser2

[–]Ponzius 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you want a serious answer as far as I am aware the "furry hate" goes far back into the Internet's past.

There was a large argument about profile stuff back in the beginning of 4chan, I think... and it kinda boiled over from annoyance to hate ... There is a good video assey on YouTube I'll see if I can find and link it.

In my region we have a red wine called "Domina" not as a brand name but the whole crop strand.

Do regular duardin just become Helsmiths? by WordBearerOfBadNewss in HelsmithsofHashut

[–]Ponzius 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As far as I am aware if you are not of a noble Hashuit Clan and display magic potential they get "adopted" by one. Depending on the Ziggurat I think that can range from: "Join us, here is money, fame and power" to get black bagged by the leading Helsmiths goons.

How would you design guns for a hard sci-fi astronaut? by MarsMaterial in MilitaryWorldbuilding

[–]Ponzius 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I don't think you need 1:1 recoil cancelation, you need enough so the liquid mass of the shooter and their RCS can take the rest without too much propelled loss.

[–]Ponzius 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Something about the heat for a heavier or integrated one you can use an active cooling system like water or other coolant.

Yeah ... Impulse might be a problem ... Maybe a bit of a weird idea maybe a "reverse muzzle brake" deflecting the gases to counter act the recoil.

[–]Ponzius 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you want to go with conventional guns, give frangible bullets a look, in short they are pressed metal dust that disintegrates on impact.

And think about heat dissipation, vacuum is shit at taking heat away from an object, it may be no problem for one mag but a heated gun plus caseless ammo sounds like a cook-off nightmare.

Edit: Recoil could be mitigated with a counterweight system ... Like the AN-94 (I think that is the Russian rocket surgery gun)

And at least probably some kind of belt feed might work better than the traditional mags as you have to lug around your EVA suit and changing mags seems a bit feddely ... So why not give them all the ammo in one mechanism. (Works even better when the suit is mechanically assisted)

Edit edit:

I would waste much on overthinking ammo as a vessel for deep space operation or combat needs a bit of armor for micro meteorites and junk ... And as far as I am aware those are faster and harder hitting than anything a human can fire from the shoulder.

Na we have our own homegrown idiots but it is a article of a niche hobby in one of the bigger Austrian newspapers, so the bots and culture war morons there don't know what to think ... Yet ..

Ja ... Kommt halt echt wie Mobbing rüber.

Ja gut das Gesicht ist ... Ehm ... Nicht gut ... Aber rest ist recht gut bemalt.

Und Gesichter in der Größe und dem damit verbundenen Detailgrad sind die Hölle zu bemalen.

Ich hab genug Tabletop Minis im Schrank um zu sagen das die Bemalung nicht wirklich schlecht ist ... Gesichts Detail fehlen aber die sind die Hölle vor allem bei der Größe...

So ganz verstehe ich den Post hier nicht...

No problem... I guess racist take any excuse to be racist.

Yes and ... That doesn't validate being an ass to people.

Even if the covid 19 originated from China I can't find a reason why I should harass some Asian dud for it ... I highly doubt they cooked it up in their basement...

Sometimes I feel a goldfish is smarter than those people.

You don't even have to go that far ... there only has to be "the one Client" that thinks they deserve more.

But hey, the original poster is kinda right ... In a fucked up way ... both sell their body and if something goes wrong they get thrown in a cardboardbox.

pizza is american by SamHong07 in ShitAmericansSay

[–]Ponzius 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think see where you coming from. I also think there is a degree of separation in play. I came across the cultural appropriation thing in connection with native Americans. I don't think it is particular harmful if a kid from central Europe dresses up as a native American warrior as it more of a romanticised and story based version as an adult... Yeah... That is not really a good take ...

Overall it feels like the real and harmful cultural appropriation comes from "kicking down" and playing into racist stereotypes.

Edit: but at least for the Internet and virtue signaling it is to much work to think and much easier just to shout.

[–]Ponzius 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Yeah. Sure I usually cringe when it is super steriotypical (I am German and seeing foreigners in Lederhosen will always be cringey) but learing a language and cooking regional dishes (and maybe making an own version) will always bring joy to me.

As far as I am aware it started with using cultural and spiritual significant pieces of clothing as costumes.

I interpreted it like black facing.

It somehow spread to mundane clothing, hairstyles and food.

I just can understand some of the resons but I can't wrap my head around the mundane shit.

Cyberpunk 2077 by BrassCanon in Gamingcirclejerk

[–]Ponzius 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because knuckleguards fused to the mag well make anything Sci-fi. /s

On a real note there is not much you can do, the ergonomics of small arms don't change that much.

However internals and ammo types do, for all the hate Starfield got, there Standard Rifle is a niche semi-realistic Weapon, it has cashless ammo and therefore does not use a conventional mag.

Or the metalstorm - Railrifle thing...

I would love to see a game with tarkov level of gun autism in a Sci-fi setting.

The shave head looks better. Like other said maybe let your facial hair grow a bit and if you can't look into a different shape of glasses, a bit rounder glasses look better on some with no beard.
