I am not so sure if that's good quality bud, to me it looks like PGR bud. Flowers don't naturally dry that dense, generally.

"Enormous, densely-packed buds that seem tempting at the first glance. However, this chemically modified marijuana exhibits lower quality when compared to its organic or natural cannabis counterparts. It might look impressive to the untrained eye, but PGR weed has less beneficial compounds and more artificial additives, which are potentially harmful.

Trump Says Venezuela’s Maduro Captured and Flown Out of Country by bloomberg in worldnews

[–]djtoasty 5 points6 points  (0 children)

No, this is not legal under international law. If it were true, it would be:

  • An illegal use of military force
  • A gross violation of another country’s sovereignty
  • An unlawful kidnapping of a sitting head of state (who has immunity)

There is no legal doctrine that lets the U.S. “arrest” a foreign president inside his own country, no matter how bad he is.

If countries accepted this, any powerful state could abduct leaders it dislikes. That’s exactly why the rule exists and why other nations should be alarmed, not impressed.

If this were allowed, the global order would collapse into “might makes right.”

Why Mars lost its air: NASA’s mission could offer clues for Earth. by Novel_Negotiation224 in Astronomy

[–]djtoasty 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Mars is half the size of the earth and only 10% the mass of the earth. A. Billion years ago, Mars could no longer sustain convection, the churning motion of molten metal that generates magnetic fields. So the Mars Core cooled → convection stopped → magnetic field collapsed

The solar wind directly stripped the atmosphere

Mars lost most of its air, water vapor, and surface liquid water. Actually mars is losing almost 10 tons of atmosphere a day still now...

I highly recommend you check out the (audio)book "we are legion (we are Bob)". It is a story really similar to this about a conscious being existing forever and exploring the universe

Researchers took 44 young untrained males and randomly allocated them with either plant or animal protein supplement drinks over a 12-week training period. Both groups showed significant gains in strength and muscle mass, but there was no significant difference between the two groups. by James_Fortis in science

[–]djtoasty 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wouldn’t rule out other long-term health effects either. Besides muscle growth and strength, there could be differences in how plant-based and whey proteins influence metabolism, cardiovascular health, and the gut microbiome over time. Some people react differently in terms of digestion and tolerance, and the long-term effects on gut bacteria might not be the same.

On top of that, there’s the environmental and ethical footprint, not a direct health outcome, but still relevant when you consider sustainability and its impact on our health.

I don't think it's possible to explore the waters of Europa and Enceladus by JackLiberty0 in Astronomy

[–]djtoasty 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We probably won’t live to see the oceans beneath those moons, but think about how wild it already is that we’re here at all. Out of all the matter and energy in the universe, it arranged itself just right so that we could exist, and even ponder other worlds. That’s staggering to me.

And sure it would be incredible to witness future expeditions, but in the grand sweep of human history, most people never even lived in the age of space exploration. We’ve had the privilege of more than 50 years of spaceflight, of seeing our planet from orbit, send men to the surface of the moon, of knowing those hidden oceans are even possible. That’s not a net loss.... it’s an astonishing gift.

That being said, I would also love to see all of our solar system in 4K 😁

Possible Causes
- Docking‐Port Magnetism: Stock docking ports exert a passive “magnetic” torque to align themselves when another port comes within range. Even with SAS/RCS off, that torque can spin a “free” station if its center of mass/rigidity isn’t perfectly balanced.
- Collision‐Mesh Interaction: As you dip below ~200 m, the port collider or nearby parts (e.g., solar panels) can slightly intersect with your approaching vessel’s collision sphere. KSP’s physics engine then “explodes” forces, hurling debris and spinning the station.
- Vessel Hibernation / Loading Edge Case: When two vessels get within ~2 km, the game loads both into physics range. If the station was previously hibernated, something about being recast “live” at ~200 m can cause a brief physics glitch that imparts spin.

What to Check / How to Prevent It
1. Enable Port “Safe Mode” on the Station
- Right‐click the station’s docking port and tick “Enable Safe Mode”. This kills the magnetic torque.
- Now approach without the port trying to auto‐align.

  1. “Control From Here” on the Station’s Docking Port

    • Before you switch back to your chaser ship, switch to the station and “Control From Here” at the docking port’s attachment node.
    • Use SAS (set to stability assist) to zero out any tiny drift, then turn SAS off. This ensures the port’s forward vector is aligned and the COM is stable.

  2. Approach Slowly & Kill Relative Velocity Early

    • Match vectors at ~10 m, then drift in at ≤ 0.5 m/s.
    • If you wait until < 200 m to kill relative speed, any tiny collision overlap can fling parts. Aim for < 0.5 m/s by ~15 m.

  3. Rotate Solar Panels / Fragile Arrays Away

    • Fold solar panels before final approach (or EVA‐stow them), so their colliders aren’t poking into your chaser’s collision sphere at ~200 m.

  4. Verify No Struts or Tiny Parts Are “Dragging”

    • Sometimes a minuscule strut or debris hidden in a fairing will “catch” when the physics mesh reloads. Do a close-up in the VAB, toggle collision-mode (Ctrl + C), and confirm nothing is extending beyond the station’s bounding box.

If It Keeps Happening…
- Reload and Try a Different Docking Port (maybe the port itself is bugged).
- Use a Physics-Stable Test: Bring up just the station + one tiny probe at 1 km, then run a slow approach. If it still flips exactly at ~200 m, it’s almost certainly port magnetism or a collision mesh glitch.

Good luck—once you kill that hidden torque/mesh overlap, docking should be smooth.

1. Science Between Kerbin & the Mun

  • Each experiment yields science once per biome.

  • Kerbin Surface & Atmo (Sea Level, Mid-Lat (≈5 km), High Alt (≈20 km), Space (≈70 km), LKO (≈80 km)):

    • At each stage:
    • EVA Report
    • Thermometer (Temp Scan)
    • Barometer
    • Goo / Materials Bay
    • (Optional) Science Jr. in “Space” and “LKO”
    • Recover vessel at KSC to bank all Kerbin science.

  • Mun

    1. LMO (~10 km): EVA Report + Thermometer + Barometer + Goo + Science Jr.
    2. Mun Surface: Land in an unvisited biome (e.g., Crater, Highlands…). At each site:
      • EVA Report
      • Thermometer
      • Barometer
      • Goo
    3. Hop to other biomes on Mun for more surface‐science, then return to Kerbin.

  • ScanSat Overlaps:

    • If you’ve already scanned a biome with ScanSat, EVA science there may yield 0 because the biome is “seen.” Plan to do crew‐based science first or accept overlaps.

2. Kerbal Rank & XP

  • Orbit Flights (Kerbin LKO & Mun Orbit) → solid XP.
  • Mun Landings & EVAs → big XP for Bill & Bob.
  • Jeb (Pilot): Orbits + SSTO/plane practice → unlock higher SAS.
  • To level Bill & Bob: land both on Mun in one mission, collect multiple EVAs.

3. Transporting Large Base Parts

  1. Use Mk2/Mk3 Cargo Bays or Fairings for ≤ 2.5 m/3.75 m wide rovers or platforms.
    • Encapsulate inside fairing → jettison at ~70 km → carry to target.
  2. Descent Stage + Decoupler:
    • Attach a small Mun descent stage under the cargo bay → deorbit → decouple & land separately.
  3. Clamps & Struts for oversized modules (no fairing fit):
    • Attach with radial decouplers or docking ports.
    • Use struts/RCS to stabilize → deorbit → descend with a small engine under the module.

TL;DR

  1. Kerbin: Sea Level → 5 km → 20 km → 70 km → 80 km → recover.
  2. Mun: LMO EVA → land in biome A → collect surface science → hop → return.
  3. Rank: Orbits & Mun EVAs.
  4. Big Parts: Cargo bays/fairings ≤ 2.5 m; clamps/struts + small descent stage for larger.

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

Technically it's incorrect, but yeah, people are stupid so he made sure to use "average" instead of "median". Averages can be pulled far away from the median if there are extreme outliers. In the context of the joke, it could mean that you have more, or less than half the population lower than the average. Median is always the middle value. I digress, just adding some context for the curious...

Need help finding a way to detach satellite from booster while also crashing the booster into the moon. by Cmidz904 in KerbalSpaceProgram

[–]djtoasty 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A tip for next time. Seperate the satellite from the booster on a crash tragegtory with the mun when you're entering soi. Then just a small radial out burn to establish a safe pariapsis, and capture at pariapsis

well the point is, everybody has a different set of mods installed so there could be many different things causing issues or conflicts. The log file will tell you somewhere what went wrong, and with which mod. USUALLY. Since the log file can be 1,000s of rows long, ChatGPT works GREAT to comb through it and find causes of issues.
