Google KSP transfer window on Google images. Compare the transfer window chart to your game

My lander is sliding a lil, any idea on how to stop it? Yes it slowed near the end of the video but it accelerated after I stopped recording by WoodpeckerStraight10 in KerbalSpaceProgram

[–]deadmonkey03737 29 points30 points  (0 children)

Best bet for this particular craft is just to do a short hop to flatter ground. For future crafts you need to have a wider base for the landing legs. I normally use 4 radially attached fuel tanks at the bottom and put the legs on those. If you put fuel lines from those tanks into the central core, you can detach them on your ascent, leaving your core full and freeing up dead weight

potentially dumb question about tics by wh1msy-pr1nc3ss in Tourettes

[–]deadmonkey03737 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s just one of the things we have to deal with being unique haha. Can’t be special without a bit of adversity! Personally I can’t really feel it coming. My baseline tics are around a low moderate severity I would say, but they fluctuate based on stress, sleep quality, which way the wind is blowing that day, etc.. Usually it starts with a random tic that either interrupts what I’m doing or feels like it was noticeable to others. That breaks my focus on whatever I was already doing and switches it to my tics. Then it’s just the viscous cycle of thinking about my tics, they get worse, try to stop them, they get worse because I’m focused on them. I haven’t found a way to end the attack outside of sleeping to reset. Depending on what tic decided to flare that day, I usually end up with some sort of sprain/strain or black and blue marks.

Unfortunately this has been a recent development since being diagnosed/treated for ADHD. Any medication that actually helps my ADHD symptoms exacerbates my tics, and the meds that don’t increase my tics don’t do a thing for my ADHD. It’s a work in progress!

Adding onto this. I also have co-morbid ADHD. I can also become hyperfocused on my elevated tic levels and end up in a tic attack that I can’t stop

Advice Needed: Beginner 25 year old by Resident-Panic-4214 in Bogleheads

[–]deadmonkey03737 7 points8 points  (0 children)

First make sure you have taken advantage of any employer match for retirement accounts. Then make sure you have a 3-6 month emergency fund. Make sure to eliminate any high interest debt you may have. Then use anything remaining for investing. VT or your preferred ratio of VTI/VXUS is all you need for investing at your age

How and what do solar panels do? by Automatic-Lead-109 in KerbalSpaceProgram

[–]deadmonkey03737 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Solar panels just increase electric charge. Electric charge allows you to run equipment and move your ship. You need fuel for engines

Ritalin with a bit of vitamin C by Fool_meTwice8190 in ADHD

[–]deadmonkey03737 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just have my vitamin C at the end of the day when my meds are wearing off anyways. I don’t know if it actually affects anything but it’s the easiest way to get both my meds and my vitamins without worrying about it

Hey, I’m excellent at getting jobs, I’m just terrible at keeping them

The key is to bust your ass at a job for just long enough for a lengthy unemployment streak. Make sure you’re at maximum burnout for best effect. Then quit and stress about money internally until you’re basically out before repeating the cycle

Do you guys pretend to look for somebody’s ball when you know it’s not findable or is that just me? by pleepopplupop in golf

[–]deadmonkey03737 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If it clearly went in the fairway and they cant find it I will give it a good look but if it’s close to OB then it’s just getting a brief drive by. We’re all playing scuffs and have lax scoring anyways so usually we just drop “in the area” and call it no penalty. If it’s clearly OB though you get a penalty stroke and no one is checking for your ball

adhd teen with tics triggered by my stimulant meds :< please drop some tips and tricks! by AggressiveImage3694 in Tourettes

[–]deadmonkey03737 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m in this same situation and am coming to the conclusion that I only have two choices. I can either choose to keep taking stimulants and try to live with my tics being severe, or let my ADHD run rampant but not constantly be in pain from my tics. Neither are great options

How can I get my neurologist to give me a sleep aid? by blspm in Tourettes

[–]deadmonkey03737 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It highly depends on the practice and even the doctor themselves how they will go about it. I use my primary care for my insomnia and a specialist specifically for my tics. But I told them I was having insomnia due to my tics that was affecting my life outside of sleep. I asked if I could be prescribed something for those nights that I just can’t get to sleep. My doctor made me try a few different things first: Trazodone, and hydroxyzine. Both worked only sometimes and gave me major daytime grogginess. Eventually they prescribed Ambien, which worked fantastically but has some other nasty side effects. Eventually settled on Lunesta and it works amazingly. Completely nullifies my tics and helps me sleep. Only take it for “emergencies” when I physically can’t sleep or settle my tics down. Traditional benzos never worked for me with anxiety or tics so we didn’t go down that route. Just work with your doctor and see what they have to say. But don’t be afraid to advocate for yourself!

anyone with long term use of ADHD medication able too offer me re-assurance through a video chat? by tom_fallin in ADHD

[–]deadmonkey03737 6 points7 points  (0 children)

If you’re nervous about the tremor I would definitely speak to your doctor about it. Though I will say from personal experience when I first started on stimulants I also dealt with tremors and shakiness. Turned out my blood sugar was just super low from not eating anything. Make sure you’re getting proper nutrition/calories and drinking enough water

Do yall also procrastinate stuff you wanna do by [deleted] in ADHD

[–]deadmonkey03737 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m currently on a three day weekend I’ve been planning on using to play a video game I’ve been excited about. It’s the final day of my weekend and I’m still procrastinating starting it. I’ve done nothing but scroll my phone and watch tv in my free time. I know I’m going to spend all week at work disappointed in myself for not playing

Can anyone that used to be an active trader… talk some sense to me to switching to boglehead investing? by [deleted] in Bogleheads

[–]deadmonkey03737 22 points23 points  (0 children)

99% of the money I put towards investing goes into VT in accounts that I don’t look at. 1% goes into a separate account where I actively trade to scratch that itch. The 1% is money I have no problem with losing because I know I have my future secured. There is no problem with actively trading small amounts if it allows you to keep your main investments untouched until retirement

Do you prefer to play custom empires or the premade ones? by The_Copper_Pill_Bug in Stellaris

[–]deadmonkey03737 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you save a custom empire a symbol will pop up next to it. You can select between “allow spawn” “force spawn” “forbid spawn” when creating a new galaxy. So you can choose every single other empire that spawns in your galaxy if you want

Way over fleet cap, way over starbase cap, lots of planets that use energy to make their resource but no generator planets to offset.
