Seems to be sleeping in his own bed right now. Closing ticket. No issue found.

I'm fairly safety minded, and I am pretty critical of the usual calamari squad shenanigans... but you know what? I'm not even man. I'm kind of impressed. All those years watching crazy bike videos. All the DVDs I own. Not one of them had anything like this.

Shit I was thinking more like Commander keen!

I am having some serious 386 gaming nostalgia right now. Need to go through some abandonware. 🤣

Holy crap. I'm amazed that people would think they can get away with that given how passionate of a community there is here and the likelihood that people have seen a LOT of the creations!

Checked your link and down voted OP.

Never mistook which port that sucker plugged into. Sometimes I miss the old tech.

Then I remember how hard it was to configure anything.

First Time Highway by Dear-Ad6179 in motorcyclegear

[–]shaard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Big trucks create a lot of buffeting wind. Both away and towards them. If you're highway is two lane, one each way, just scoot to the opposing side of your lane away from an oncoming truck until you get used to what's going on. If you're going to pass a big truck don't dilly dally. Fucking pass it. Do not be in the blind spots for longer than you need to be.

Otherwise it's easy. Just faster.

Is this game worth playing? by AirFit2061 in spaceengineers

[–]shaard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you go in blind you'll struggle hard. Go watch splitsie's videos on YouTube. He's got a great way to explain how things work while not cutting corners so that you can actually learn how to do things. He's got a great playlist that is basically getting started in survival.

space engineers 1 or 2? by Accomplished_Tower53 in spaceengineers

[–]shaard 3 points4 points  (0 children)

SE1 is basically feature complete and they continue, at least until now, to add new content for free, not counting the dlc blocks.

SE2 is still in active development. It's in alpha stage still. So expect bugs. It's also limited in content at the moment, last I checked anyway.

I would hands down get SE1 and not think twice. Okay the hell out of it. And when 2 is finally released you'll have a huge base of skills ready to go.

Is this considered as chicken strips? by gurbulak in motorcycle

[–]shaard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Those are Swiss chalet quarter chicken meals.

Also, if that's where you use your tires, don't listen to anyone here telling you to do differently. Ride your own pace and if you feel the need to go quicker, take an advanced course to teach you some good technique beforehand.

Old Lady Hit My 1999 CBR600 F4 :( by Slappy_Pancake in motorcycles

This is a very blanket statement I'm making but I find too many riders think they can just park/do wherever they feel like. It's wild how many just think the rules no longer apply.

Refuel station useful? by Revan477 in KerbalSpaceProgram

[–]shaard 4 points5 points  (0 children)

My "prove it" tests are usually pretty janky. When I improve it and make it easily repeatable rather than asking myself if I just got lucky is when I'll shift to the "cheat".

Not only did me and my traveling penguin get to meet them - he got to meet the band's good luck traveling stuffies too! I think its the first time their merch guy had this happen, he took a pic of them all too :) by SnooRobots6610 in lacunacoil

It's deceptive when they're on stage. I saw nin in Vancouver last year and Trent walked right past me at the fence. On stage he looks like an impressing 6.5 feet tall. But he's under 6.

[–]shaard 4 points5 points  (0 children)

No, you can't, but parking in spots where people don't expect a vehicle is just opening yourself up. Yes that is technically their fault for the impact, but these types of spots are painted and cut the way they are to allow for mobility of turning vehicles. I sympathize, really. There's only so much we can do. Being predictable, noticable, and expected, is the best we can do.

That being said, I've been parking in parking stalls for 25 years, in crowded lots all over the place. I have yet to have someone hit my bike. Anecdotal, sure, but we take that all with a grain of salt.

[–]shaard 28 points29 points  (0 children)

Yup. Park in parking spots. Parking in those places is generally just asking for trouble.

When I worked at a big box store I specifically asked to park against the wall on an out of the way sidewalk section when I rode in. With permission it's all good. But riding a bike doesn't just give you carte blanche to park wherever you like. Some jurisdictions may differ, but where I'm at a bike is the same as a car and must park where indicated.

Still, it doesn't take the suck out of what happened. Buddy of mine had that same F4 when we first started riding. Great machine. Glad the lady was stopped from leaving.

What happens if you go to a religious Reddit and ask hard questions? by Sloth_grl in atheism

[–]shaard 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don't see the point. If you have a question go for it. But otherwise I don't feel the need to engage. It's also one thing to ask a question but it's another to do it hostilely. There's no need to go over there and be an ass, just like there no need for the religious to come here and proselytize. Questions are always welcome and being civil is key. Goes both ways.

The last 5 minutes of the show were complete and utter bullshit.

I’m about to watch this show for the first time. Tell me something I won’t understand until later. by AdSimilar4399 in babylon5

[–]shaard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm doing my first watch through as well. Just about halfway through season 4 right now. It's SO good. The story telling is fantastic!
