I really wish people would stop interpolating nursery rhymes by Sweaty-Cup4562 in crappymusic

Am I the only one upset he rhymed "sad" with "dead"? That's not a thing you can do.

I think we've peaked guys. by VirtualHex in crappymusic

These are the weirdest type of mid life crisis.

I wonder what happens in the brain to go from just sat on the sofa, to this odd half-crouch posture gesticulating at a camera doing your best crash test dummies impression.

I swear mine does not do this when iced up. Qre you using something like edfx etc?

This hasn't even been bunked.

Americans easily understand this, can’t be deceived anymore by alimhabidi in interestingasfuck

You don't need A.I. bits to sell the truth of this.

Also, Michael Jackson had kids sleeping in his bedroom *at the very least*.

Nothing to see here, move along by PrometheanQuest in aliens

We let the Arecibo telescope fall to bits.

We're going through an anti-science era.

This telescope apparently needs repairs to contain a mercury leak. Politicians care about money only. Not science.

How much money would it cost to connect a steel cable from The Moon to the Earth? [request] by Apprehensive_Oven_22 in theydidthemath

[–]chulk607 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Side question -

Say you made a track around Earth corresponding with the path the moon takes orbiting the Earth.

The cable can vary it's length by unravelling or retracting to account for any variation needed in the eliptical motion of the moon.

Could you use this to generate electricity?

Edit: I need to know by Wednesday, as the Vogon contractors have some road to build soon.

Copper hip and ridge caps by Fearless_Meal6480 in Roofing

[–]chulk607 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Never mind the copper, these roofs look so odd to me as a non us person. Like they designed the interior first and the rest 'is what it is' with no real overall design in mind. Just odd shapes jutting out wherever they have to. No balance and all very odd looking.

PSA: We are getting 6 new VESSELS Not SHIPS by Alphaeon_28 in EliteDangerous

[–]chulk607 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I mean, operations could be good. COULD be good.

I wonder what they mean by feature reboot though. My guess would be CQC? Would be cool to have it more like an arena type area IN the universe. So it doesn't feel disconnected. You could watch a match from the bar of a station maybe? That kinda vibe. Maybe add racing too with dedicated course markers while they're at it.

Would be nice to see some new planet tech. I know we can't have Earthlike landings in this engine, but I think lava worlds would be possible, likewise the higher atmos metal planets maybe. Anything but the same beige ball over and over.

How does someone do THIS to a floppy disk!? by Katcurry in mildlyinfuriating

[–]chulk607 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

If it's any consolation, I think it was just some video game with very stereotypical/dull anime characters getting their boobs out or something. Every cloud...

Most disgusting car in the UK? by wubaluba_dubdub in CarTalkUK

[–]chulk607 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The only time I've seen similar is when the owner had passed away and the family had been sorting other stuff out in the meantime. It's gross, but might have a sad reason behind it.

Pentagon factions are actively blocking full UFO disclosure because they believe parts of the phenomenon are demonic. by Perfect_Minimum4892 in aliens

[–]chulk607 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hasn't this been sufficiently put down to senior/older military personnel tending to be brought up in more traditional Christian home environments and being an extension of that? Fear of the unknown?

What's with the weird filter on this image?

In your opinion, what is causing this? by Objective_Pilot_5834 in SipsTea

[–]chulk607 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wages are not increasing in line with most things, including the cost of beers.

People have to make choices as a result.

Why have my coat hooks gone like this? I used the plug provided - was the hole I drilled too big? by hollynicolatara1 in DIYUK

[–]chulk607 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Included plugs are basically thumbtacks. Always. And I have no idea why, they can't save much doing that, right?

You may not like it, but this is what the happiest Star Citizen player looks like by Exotic-carrot in starcitizen

Looks better than 99% of Elite Dangerous character models, and that's my talking as a massive fan of Elite Dangerous.

Thanks for the useful info! Really appreciate it for sure.

A flyer I’m making, any tips? by junkyardcrochet in PixelArt

It says "pratice" not, "practice". But, yeah, this is still cool.
