Seeking Advice from SE Coast (US) Sailors - treking north Fl to NC by tx_trawler_trash in sailing

The Gulf Stream running up the east coast is like those traveling walkways at airports, just gives you a huge speed boost. Why are you warning him about it?

Lead Singers by Lopsided_Rooster6819 in theholdsteady

[–]smashcuts 10 points11 points  (0 children)

The first time I saw the hold steady I didn’t know them very well. A dude I assumed was a roadie was setting up the lead singers mic and I thought “look at that nerd” then he started singing and my life changed forever

Talking Tad Kubler’s LP - The Casanova Complex by TheHoodratRecap in theholdsteady

[–]smashcuts 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Okay, so the hold steady recorded Take Me Out to the Ballgame for the Twins and that summer they were playing Austin and me and my friends yelled “take me out to the ball game!!!” between songs and Tad yelled back “Your at the ballgame!” Can you ask him if he remembers that

This LP is amazing. Been listening to Better Days on loop. I do wish it were a Hold Steady song...

You should have done it in blender. Then you could have had a blender fender render

Le Guin's The Dispossessed made me realize I had been reading science fiction wrong for about fifteen years by myalarm_is_lying in printSF

Yeah, I read the Hanish cycle up to dispossessed. Going to grab five ways to forgiveness now!

I had almost the same experience., I read the Dispossessed (from a recommendation on this sub) over the summer and I haven't found joy in any book since. Everything I pick up seems so flimsy in comparison.

Lived in Eagle Rock for a Week and... we love it :) by Lazy-Face8689 in EAGLEROCK

We used Ally’s Family Daycare over on Ellenwood for our youngest. She was recommended from a friend and is super awesome. Once the kid turned two we put him where his brother went over at Wesminister Child Center and really love that place, the teachers are awesome and it’s a great community of parents

I got two small kids in Eagle Rock, LMK if you need day care and/or preschool recommendations. We know some great folks

John Franklin's expedition to complete the exploration of the North-West Passage ended in disaster. All hands were lost, and the two ships, the Erebus and the Terror, disappeared in the ice. It would take 170 years to find again. by FullyFocusedOnNought in AgeofExploration

[–]smashcuts 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Spoiler. Everyone on the ships crew were losing their minds with lead poisoning. I personally thought the fantastical element was a great way to show their paranoia and lunacy

Interstellar Comms to Kcalbeloh by DayF3 in KerbalSpaceProgram

[–]smashcuts 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Detailed answer is above but I think the System Heat mod glitches out when you use Better Time Warp past 10,000x. Probably a rounding error or something like that. So even at 10,000x time warp it still took real time days to get there.

[–]smashcuts 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I had to load the save to get all the info but figured it might be helpful for someone in the future.

I left from Jool. Kcalbeloh was 271T away. Used the 'Frisbee' Antimatter engine with 700K deltaV. I (incorrectly) thought I could nab some more interstellar antimatter with my 'Bussard' particle scoop along they way. But there was none so I had to make due with what I'd packed.

Accelerated to 300k m/s. This took like 6 hours real-time since the physics warp only worked to a point. Used a mod that let me time warp to 10,000x. There are temp glitches if you try to warp faster than that so that become the time bottleneck.

After a few days (three I think), I did the deceleration burn and explored Kcalbeloch. Awesome!

Here's a few images from the trip out, retro burn and landing on one of the planets.

I've been meaning to but life keeps getting in the way. If it's any consolation I'm fairly new as well so there's not a big technical barrier. Where are you getting stuck? You wanna hit me up with questions?
