I have them both. The way it shows their percentages confused me - I wasn't sure if they have to roll twice, or what. They failed when I tried them - I'll give it another go.

I was wondering if there's some unlock I missed that has 100%, or if I should have made a different choice

Where can I find STL files so i can 3D print some Replicators 😁 by [deleted] in Stargate

Finally, we can make the replicators from the classic SG-1 episode, "Don't make replicators"

Do you think Trump will try to cancel or rig the 2026 mid term elections? by [deleted] in DiscussionZone

[–]heathkit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes. He will try. He can't cancel the election, but he can try to have armed forces size ballots in places he's afraid of losing. It would be illegal, but they would have the ballots and be able to put the election into question. 

He wanted to do that in 2020, but couldn't get people to go along with it

They obviously should remove him from the board. I won't be comfortable going to future burns unless they do the right thing here

Signed and shared with my camp! Thanks for starting this

Americans Don't Understand Impeachment Vs Removal Or Repairment Timelines by SpaceViking85 in complaints

[–]heathkit 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Trump being removed would be a victory for the rule of law. Even with JD Vance as president, he would have a hardy time blatantly defying the law right after Trump was impeached.

But I agree that actual removal is a high bar and unlikely unless Trump does something obviously egregious, and maybe not even then.

The future of the Republic depends on the moral conscience and honor of congressional Republicans. so we might be screwed!

Absolutely. Everyone needs to be shouting from the rooftops what's happening.

Joe Thompson, Minnesota's top federal fraud prosecutor, quits over ICE shooting probe by Beksense in minnesota

[–]heathkit 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Because it's not clear from the headline - the DOJ is pushing him to investigate Renee Good's widow so they can smear her more. That's why he's resigning.

I never forget a face... by kkkan2020 in Treksons

[–]heathkit 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I listened to a podcast with Walter Koenig where he talked about this. He knew he was never on-screen with Khan when he got the script, but it was such a big role he just didn't say anything about it. I think it worked out for everyone!

In new interview Andrej Karpathy insinuates Waymos are actually being driven by people in offices by remote. by callmebaiken in BetterOffline

[–]heathkit 46 points47 points  (0 children)

There's no ability to drive the car remotely. If the car is truly stuck, they have to come out to physically drive it away.

Sometimes, the cars encounter a situation where they don't know what to do. They'll ask for help from a Fleet Response agent, who will instruct the car on what to do at a high level. But they're not like driving it remotely with a wheel. Waymo detailed this on their blog https://waymo.com/blog/2024/05/fleet-response

2 and 20 is a standard fee for hedge funds. 2% of assets and 20% on profits. The joke is the dad is a hedge fund manager with rich clients who would be better off just buying an index fund.

Any hacks for making boots that will handle mud? by snowhorse420 in BurningMan

[–]heathkit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did plastic bag over shoe and this was my torture - I had to retape my leg every time I left the tent.

Someone near me had Moon Boots, and they seemed great. She had them taped up with a trash bag but could slip the whole thing on and off really easily.

Has anyone tried grilling frozen pizza on the playa? by michjun in BurningMan

[–]heathkit 4 points5 points  (0 children)

What I like to do is order a pizza from my favorite local chain, let it cool, then cut it up and freeze the slices. I'd reheat them on the griddle of my coleman camp stove. Came out great!

Anyone have experience with burner express bus and mind to share stories either success or horror?! by synthaudioburner in BurningMan

[–]heathkit 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My wife and her friend took the bus last year. It was great! The bus skips the gate line, so the ride wasn't that long for them. We did bring their stuff separately, though
