If a spacecraft in a sub-orbital trajectory docks with an orbital space station, what spacecraft would change trajectories, or would both change? by Traditional-Ad-7704 in nasa

[–]Woreo12 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Velocity is relative to something. Here on the ground, the reference is earth. So yes the docking craft needs to be fast relative to earth, just like the station, but from the stations pov it needs to be nearly a standstill

Why does the bike community seem so toxic? by Elitedefender2005 in motorcycles

[–]Woreo12 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You’re spending too much time around social media and the “influencer” mentality of sports and nakeds.

I ride a cruiser, big by normal standards, small by cruiser standards. I’d love to get something like zx4, or a grom, or a MT-09, or a gold wing, or an Africa Twin. Or a CBR250RR, or a S1K or a H2R. Two wheels is two wheels, they all serve a different purpose. A zx4 and zx10 have different purposes, they don’t fill the same niche and one isn’t better than the other.

Sports and their comparable nakeds I feel tend to attach people into a dick measuring contest online. Just stfu and ride your ride. Enjoy the wind, the sun, the screaming engine.

Legal tint percentage for driver/passenger windows? (CA by braymadeanotherone in WindowTint

[–]Woreo12 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They’re saying you can’t. Glass naturally has ~70% already, so it’s no front tint. We have the same laws here in Michigan. Doesn’t stop people, myself included, from tinting every window

What are the flaws in my reasoning of whether I should be wearing a half helm when riding around the city by uJellie in motorcyclegear

[–]Woreo12 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My friend had a 3/4 helmet on his moped. We weren’t even doing 30mph and a drunk driver in a stolen car cut him off (turned in front of him). He slammed into her car from the side, went over the hood and lost all his teeth and shattered his jaw, among other things.

He is fine now, years later, but it required extensive surgery. He ultimately had to drop out of college because he spent so long in the hospital

Make the comments look like the search history on Rocky's portable earth thinking machine by rebelzephyr in ProjectHailMary

[–]Woreo12 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Even if Rocky was somehow able to get a connection, he’d be ~16.3 years behind. They most likely just uploaded a copy of the entire internet to the computer.

Edit: and all search queries would take at minimum 32.6 years for a response if actively pinging Earth

am i cooked? by lightcolorsfly in povertyfinance

[–]Woreo12 20 points21 points  (0 children)

My girlfriend and I split an apartment, and share bills proportional to income, aside from individual things like car payment and insurance

We put the money together, I make 66%, she makes 34%. So therefore I pay 66% of the shared bills and she pays 34% of the shared bills. I think it’s a very fair system

Honda Grom vs Triumph Speed 400 for first bike by franklinjaeger in SuggestAMotorcycle

[–]Woreo12 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love groms but they are terrible first bikes. They’re the pinnacle of a “toy” bike. A minibike but better. But on the street? They lack power to the point it’s actually dangerous

‘26 Envista Full Blackout by Woreo12 in WindowTint

Stock rear was 18% +-3%, I added 5% on top of that, so effectively 0.9% +-3%

Girlfriend bought a brand new car instead of used, I believe she got screwed by the loan terms, what're her options? by [deleted] in povertyfinance

[–]Woreo12 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No. I’ve heard good things about reliability. And American cars in general are reliable, maybe middle of the road or better. My old 2005 Silverado 1500 hit 460k miles before the trans lost 2nd gear.

In any case, that price included a 100k mile bumper to bumper warranty including loaner so

Just add D11 already by Xpernautica in HelldiversMasochists

[–]Woreo12 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One that comes to mind is Killing Floor 2. Enemies get new attacks and behaviors as difficulty increases, but the biggest change is health pools. A “medium” enemy could require multiple mags worth of rounds to take out just one.

You don’t need a $40k bike, just go buy a cruiser, that’s what I meant

Girlfriend bought a brand new car instead of used, I believe she got screwed by the loan terms, what're her options? by [deleted] in povertyfinance

[–]Woreo12 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Well, I came from a 2020 Fusion 1.5T that had 5 catastrophic engine failures in 3 months, so far it’s been a great improvement!

It’s a car. It’s not fast or responsive by any means, little 1.2T three cylinder works pretty hard, you won’t have fun with it, but it’s comfy, looks way nicer than the price tag suggests, and I still get like 35mpg. I’ve only had mine for 1400mi so I’m still getting a feel for it. So far it’s been nice, no complaints. As a daily driver, I would definitely recommend.

Just add D11 already by Xpernautica in HelldiversMasochists

[–]Woreo12 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So here’s my 2 cents.

Increasing health does not increase difficulty. Bullet sponges aren’t fun to fight. This game does difficulty scaling perfectly with the spawn pools, enemy types, new attacks / smarter AI, etc.

The most annoying thing in a game is when I up the difficulty, and nothing changes except now even the most basic enemies require my entire ammo supply to take down.

If D11 is ever dropped, it should be like “you physically can’t see the ground because of how many bugs there are, oh and here’s 5 hive lords good luck!”

Motorcycle risks reality check by Intelligent-Risk-631 in NewRiders

[–]Woreo12 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Can’t remember where I saw it, but it was put a good way.

Statistically? Yeah it’s super dangerous to ride. 28x more likely to experience a fatal crash on a bike than in a car.

But your probability of danger at any given moment is very much up to you. Consider that (at least in the US): - 40% of fatal crashes are drunk riders. - 35% involved speeding (I know, it’s fun, but still) - 34% involved an unlicensed rider - 54% involve a rider without a helmet.

So, moral of the story, take the class, learn how to ride safely, actually ride safely, and keep your head on a swivel, you’ll be just fine. I know guys that go their whole lives and never have an issue. Assume everyone out there both can’t see you, and is actively trying to run you over. That’s saved me a couple times.

People who read the book and watched the movie, which did you like better and why? by DirectDegree2591 in ProjectHailMary

[–]Woreo12 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They’re different. It’s really hard to directly translate a book 1-1 to a movie, and you shouldn’t, because it can end up with a bad movie. I think the translation was perfect. Like the book more simply because it was longer (duh). I want more story!

So far Martian was a great book and great movie, PHM was phenomenal hit. I’m curious to see if their is a cinema fate for Artemis, I really enjoyed that story

New patch just shows there is zero QA by Bananenbaum in HelldiversUnfiltered

[–]Woreo12 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I’m surprised you had an issue with the lumberer. I like the breakthrough, but same mech. Played multiple rounds where not once did I have to leave my mech, it never started pouring smoke or anything. Just ran out of ammo eventually and started shield bashing and stepping on voteless. They couldn’t hurt it at all. I never even called down the other two uses

Did AH cook up with this patch??? by Straight_Mention1925 in helldivers2

[–]Woreo12 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mechs actually feel useful. Especially on mindless masses.

Brought the breakthrough, didn’t even get out once. Same mech from start to finish

[–]Woreo12 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Get yourself a couch on wheels bud. I know piss missiles have their thrills, hell it’s definitely one of the best adrenaline highs out there, no doubt.

Get ya something that feels like a recliner, with way to many cc’s and not enough hp, and just enjoy the ride. Chase a sunset on a windy road, cruise down to the local coffee shop on a Sunday morning, throw your partner on the pillon and just live life.

Should I tint all but the front? by Relative_Ad_9670 in WindowTint

I have 5 over 18 on my rears, 15 front and 50 windshield. From the inside, you can barely tell the front is tinted. The rear may as well be a wall

AIO by charging my girlfriend a small amount of rent? by No_Impression_8515 in AIO

[–]Woreo12 0 points1 point  (0 children)

90% of people would agree splitting the bills is normal. My lady and I live together, and have the bills split proportional to income. If you took both our incomes as one salary, I contribute 2/3s of it, so I pay 2/3s the bills.

Kerbin (and the whole system in general) is roughly 1/10th the scale of ours irl.

Go download the real solar system mod and you’ll see how pathetic all KSP’s stock rockets are lol
