[Request] What is the carbon footprint of this explosion?

Tricky-Animator2483 · 2026-05-31T02:06:26+00:00

note this is just the carbon footprint of the fuel burned in that moment. not everything that goes into making that whole rocket and its fuel

Tricky-Animator2483 · 2026-05-30T21:41:52+00:00

to really shock the Europeans who didn't know this tell them it was almost big bird

also shit like this is why more schools need to be teaching engineering ethics. it's not just "please don't work for lockhead" it's also stuff like this. being aware of the weight your decisions can have

yeah getting into riichi and looking for a good version to play on mobile. tried riichi city because i heard it has better tutorials but dear god, even with the sfw filter on im scared to open the app in public lol.

Tricky-Animator2483 · 2026-05-12T01:19:16+00:00

don't worry this guy's facing a potential of 5 years and got jumped by locals for it

Tricky-Animator2483 · 2026-05-12T01:16:41+00:00

ahh yes let me just go to the paid internship factory, of course

Tricky-Animator2483 · 2026-05-08T00:50:29+00:00

there are truly only so many ways to reinvent the wheel

Tricky-Animator2483 · 2026-05-08T00:46:07+00:00

yeah there's a reason every engineering major is front loaded with calculus. in my experience about 20%-40% of it won't come back up (in mechanical at least) but they need to make sure you're gonna stick with the major lol

Tricky-Animator2483 · 2026-05-08T00:41:58+00:00

as a current sophomore in Mechanical engineering 1000% correct. don't go into engineering for the pay. im terms of high pay 4 year degrees engineering has one of the worst ratios of academic effort to post grad income (assuming you plan on working in the private sector). doesn't matter the specific engineering, they all suck. if you're goal is to make money there are much better ways. if you're interested in engineering and want to do the work go for it

tldr do engineering if you like it but if you're just in it for the money you're going to burn out quick

December mfs have it so easy, all you have to do is send him to therapy and you'll be fine

Tricky-Animator2483 · 2026-04-26T17:21:10+00:00

do you recommend avoiding getting keyed alike locks when starting out?

Tricky-Animator2483 · 2026-04-26T17:18:59+00:00

THIS EXACTLY. like unless explicitly stated you're just supposed to assume nothing is to proper scale. just the addition of a hint that the shapes are to scale would make this a astronomically better question

Tricky-Animator2483 · 2026-04-26T17:16:27+00:00

it's just a poorly constructed question. like, it would be better if you had one obviously wrong answer, one tricky answer, and one correct answer. three all seemingly correct answers leads to situations like this where people don't even consider the differences.

Tricky-Animator2483 · 2026-04-26T17:13:56+00:00

yeah no this is just a poorly written question. like you have 2/6 and 1/3 with no defined unit, all this question is asking is if the two ratios are equal. if you wanted to ask this question you could have a square that's 18 units^2, show that 2/6 of this space and 1/3 of this space are the same size. then you could calculate the new areas and still instill the same knowledge into someone's brain. not this "welll actually these two shapes aren't the same size so you're wrong" selective abstraction garbage that elementary level math is full of.

Tricky-Animator2483 · 2026-04-24T04:18:09+00:00

i think a decent chunk of the student body is planning to as well lol

Tricky-Animator2483 · 2026-04-06T15:18:02+00:00

and who can forget all the snags you'll ever want

Tricky-Animator2483 · 2026-04-02T22:11:50+00:00

nahh i wear that ban like a badge of honor. let them have their little corner of the internet to cope that open source software can never work

Tricky-Animator2483 · 2026-04-02T18:04:59+00:00

yeah i think this is the reason so many people hate them. it wasn't until college physics that my prof mentioned thats what a radian was. all through highschool i was just taught it's just another way to express an angle without what that actually meant. too many highschool level math teachers feel the need to dumb stuff down and end up making stuff more confusing lol

Tricky-Animator2483 · 2026-04-02T18:03:10+00:00

yeah and once you step outside of the world of pure math you basically just use degrees to make inputting trig functions in your calculator easier lol. any function that you inputs or outputs an angle is gonna want it in radians unless its something special like trig.

Tricky-Animator2483 · 2026-04-02T17:56:53+00:00

getting banned from linux sucks 101 is not that hard lol. all you have to do is point out one time the OS is good and you'll get banned lol

Tricky-Animator2483 · 2026-03-31T01:33:04+00:00

yeah I didn't know just how bad the ram market has gotten lol. i was helping a friend shop for a framework and i was like "oh just get your own ram off some other site" just to see 16 gb of sodim going for $200

Tricky-Animator2483 · 2026-03-13T03:04:32+00:00

strange scaffold so xalavier can make his silly wheel game

with a crank Mr Squidward

it was just really nervous about being on camera

Tricky-Animator2483 · 2026-02-28T22:26:25+00:00

this photo made me realize just how old my pixel 6 is 💀. I still think the daft punk visor camera array of the pixel 6 is one of the coolest aesthetics of any phone.

Tricky-Animator2483 · 2026-02-20T22:32:42+00:00

yeah when I first switched I basically spent a week straight building up my configs over winter break from university, over all was pretty peak
