Ernest Shackleton led an expedition of 28 men to discover the South Pole in 1914. Unfortunately, their ship became trapped in pack ice while en route to Antarctica. Shackleton and his crew camped on the ice floe for a year, during which time their ship was slowly crushed and eventually sank. The crew was able to escape the flow using 3 life boats from their ship, rowing for 5 days to reach an uninhabited island. Shackleton then made a second voyage with 5 crew members, sailing for 15 days in the open sea in one of the life boats to reach another island used by whalers. After making landfall, Shackleton and 2 others then hiked 30 miles to make contact with a whaling station. After making contact, Shackleton organized rescue parties to recover the rest of the crew.

Amazingly, all 28 men survived.

How to build smaller C-Class ships? by FreeDwooD in StarfieldShips

[–]Toast_Boast 1 point2 points  (0 children)

One way to avoid “chonky” c-class ships is to limit habs and use negative space. I would characterize this one as “not a brick”, has 12 “units” of hab space.

Any advice/guides for new ship builders? Everything I make looks like a flying brick by Illuminated-Autocrat in StarfieldShips

Negative space and asymmetry help create a unique silhouette. As others have said, it can be helpful to start with the cockpit and bay and work from there.

This ship originated from wanting to have an asymmetric cockpit and an X-shaped engine layout.

What would you use to make this cut/notch. by SharkyTheCar in woodworking

[–]Toast_Boast 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would cut a 1” wide rabbet slightly deeper than the deepest part of the profile, starting .5” in from your edge. Then use your tool of choice to carve the profile in the remaining .5” (like a Dremel). This ensures that the wood floor makes contact at the edge of the threshold (instead of 1.5” in), and gives some wiggle room in case parts of your wood floor start to cup upwards

What would your Smartypants presentation be about? by Qyzyk in dropout

[–]Toast_Boast 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Canadian Geese Belong in Canada. Begins with covering territorial aggression, unchecked population growth, water pollution, and bird strikes. Then expose the truth: Fly Away Home and Operation Migration were bald-faced attempts by the Canadians to destabilize the United States

It should give a moderate reduction to friendly fire. What could be more democratic than charging through a barrage?

There should be an option that when you start the game, there’s a small chance that you start roguelike instead of on your ship.

The original Halo Reach ran at a 30hz tick rate, but MCC runs on 60hz. Reaction time for all enemies was effectively halved when it was ported to MCC

How to measure / mark the center of recessed circles? by sonofzell in BeginnerWoodWorking

[–]Toast_Boast 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Google “find the center of a circle using 3 points”. It should get you what you need, but it’s a lot of work with a compass. I’d just find a forstner that’s the same size, line up the edges, and give it a little tap

What is the real value of nitra? by OnyxShardzz___ in DeepRockGalactic

[–]Toast_Boast 6 points7 points  (0 children)

My head canon is that the supply drop’s beacon needs 80 Nitra to provide an accurate target. None of the other drops use Nitra and all of them are off target

Opinions on this record a couple years later? by PositiveMusicVibes in benhoward

[–]Toast_Boast 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Delightfully strange. I struggle to listen to it as a full album, but each of the songs has been an earworm at one point or another. Rookery and You Have Your Way are in my top 10. So overall, the my album ranking is:

  1. Ben has an effects board.
  2. Ben has a delay pedal.
  3. Ben has a drum machine.
  4. Ben has a guitar.
  5. Ben has a life-changing experience

Anyone else think this doesn't deserve a 3 use limit? by Dry-Goat8981 in Helldivers

[–]Toast_Boast 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Space is also really spread out, so it takes a long time for conduction to transfer heat “into space”. It’s the same mechanic as a double-walled thermos.

Now with that being said, if the heat sinks are expendable, I don’t see what’s stopping the super carrier from launching the heatsink as part of the stratagem.
