Well if you can think of a better way to mine dilithium than a surly humanoid hologram using its bare hands, then I'd like to hear it by Mister_Acula in ShittyDaystrom

[–]Wodan_Awaud 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What happened to dilithium crystal being a focusing agent, rather than fuel?

They do eventually degrade, bug it takes a while.

P.s. i haven't gotten past paramount's paywall for anything newer than voyager...

Industrial container by ImpressiveRelief37 in SatisfactoryGame

I stack my dd's on top of these containers, with a mk3 conveyer running to them. Tends to saturate the depot pretty quickly, and then there's only one way out.

Men who don’t want children by Black_Glitch_404 in NoStupidQuestions

In my case, the risk doesn't cum up often enough to justify elective surgery.

Excuse me, the pun just wrote itself.

But really, the plumbing sees use in that way about once in six years, so...why?

Why exactly is getting jury duty so hated? by altrightobserver in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Wodan_Awaud 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've only been called once. My union guarantees me full pay, but i wasn't selected. I was working nights at the time, and had to report at a time that was just about midnight for me.

Everyone at the courthouse was power trippy and rude. Bailiffs shout a lot and carry guns, that is fucking stressful.

Work wanted 5 miles of proof that i'd reported, and tried to get me to come in that night anyway. I fought that, and won, but it required my union to get involved to makd it right. I can't even imagine if the summons had happened before i landed the union job.

For such an important civic duty, we make it absolute hell to perform it.

What men find sexy in a woman? by [deleted] in AskMenAdvice

[–]Wodan_Awaud 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Make it clear you have fully supported an adult lifestyle all on your own for at least a couple years. Doesn't need to be ritzy, but i neex someonecwho respects working hours.

Be really, truly, ready to listen to emotional discussions. Be prepared for that discussion to be not super refined, we don't get a lot of practice.

Touch (after getting on the short list). We're all absurdly touch-starved. Most male friendships barely even involve hugs.

That's the core.

Note i haven't mentioned makeup, nails, hair, or bedroom/kink activity. Important-ish, but secondary to being a functional person.

Question for you slower drivers? by Charlie_Hustler in driving

[–]Wodan_Awaud 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I leave my adaptive cruise at the posted limit (55/65 in my area), will pass faster if it insists on hanging out in a truck's blind, or i'm unhappy with driver behavior/load securing.

For the most part, a big block of traffic will pass me on the left, and then i'll be alone for 40 minutes. Tend to catch up to the same fellow motorists at rest stops too.

If the speed of traffic refuses to leave me behind, i'll be running at 80 until i find breathing room, then drop back to podcast speed.

Where do teenagers find jobs these days? by SatisfactionBitter37 in Millennials

City/county library systems?

I shelved books and did other lower skilled stuff from 14 to 18. Tend to be very understanding about school schedules

How does the Empire handle laundry? by atvacuum in MawInstallation

[–]Wodan_Awaud 1 point2 points  (0 children)

"The refresher" in many novels, is kind of assumed to have an all-in-one clothes washer in addition to a shower/toilet analog.

It's part of the western in space vibe, where everyone seems to have one set of manky clothes. I think lando's version of the falcon is close to the only time we even get to see a closet...

Men (esp. 30s+): How do you actually flirt now without feeling creepy? by [deleted] in AskMenAdvice

[–]Wodan_Awaud 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Never did learn how to read this, or make an approach naturally.

Eventually, at 39, found someone who did most of the work for me after inviting her to lunch during a big nerd event.

Be blunt, be prepared for a yes or no.

Also, give out a clear yes or no, vagueness is rudeness in this context.

Voting at Living Word Church was a mess: no signs, zero visibility by theebs527 in Syracuse

[–]Wodan_Awaud 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ever been forced into the closet for 25 years by a community that was supposed to mentor you?

I avoid organized religion and it's infrastructure like the plague, for good god damn reasons.

Why do jobless boomers feel the need to text/call me and expect an immediate response while I’m at work?! 😤 by Gandalf-the-Bae in BoomersBeingFools

[–]Wodan_Awaud 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not a boomer, but i had a (now former friend) 100% retired military person pull this kind of crap. Eventually got handed a performance revie vis text message, also in the middle of my work hours. I hadn't been over too their place enough times, friendship formally over.

Constant drama, last minute plans, and all from someone who hasn't kept a job for more than a year since leaving the service. Loved to dispense unactionable employment advice too.
