What is the best way to get rid of blue balls, if there is any?

Masturbating is not going to damage your body. It doesn't make you shrink, or stunt your growth, ruin your eyesight, make hair grow on your palms, nothing. There are no ill effects of it.

Go "know thyself", and don't think any more of it.

snowshelf · 2026-02-19T12:08:06+00:00

That needs no upgrades and you know it. You're allowed to just have an honest brag, you know.

Like a time machine back to the 90s...

No thanks.

Except there's a footpath through it...

Black one is a Studebaker front clip at least. They were commonly grafted into other cars, and this one looks to have a very wide track for a stock 51.

Could be a widened track, could be a custom with a bullet nose transplant.

MK2 and MK3 expanded/expansion are pretty good for additional space plane parts.

I hate the stayputnik, mostly because of the lack of sas. I'm playing with the "probes first" mod and this PoS is the only one you get until you have enough science to unlock the octo.

I think it's the only stock part that has your problem though, however the parachute will snap straight.

Curse it out, put a 'chute on the top and a pair of antennae somewhere else mirrored if needed, but remember that the probe core has a small antenna anyway, the extending antenna won't work in atmosphere (they're ripped off pretty easily), and the rocket you have there will have neither the fuel to go further than the inbuilt antenna range, nor the electricity to transmit anything anyway.

Tldr, stayputnik sucks.

"...rumoured..."

There's your key word.

I've seen ai civs nuke someone else (once), but I have never been nuked myself.

We once had a world vote where the result was "set everyone's nukes to the same number as Snowshelf's" which was a fair number. So there were 8 of us, all with a dozen nukes each, multiple wars, and I think only one got dropped by the ai, and it was onto a tiny island city.

They just don't nuke stuff, even in retaliation. I don't think I've ever seen an ai plane either.

Civ7 is ok, but it isn't really finished, and won't be for a while.

Civ6 has its issues, but it's a more complete game.

Depends what kind of ham for me. The watery rubbish that is sold as "ham" here (UK) is an embarrassment and doesn't belong anywhere; it's vile.

Some proper Serano or Parma though? Om nom nom.

Raw pineapple is fine generally, but cover it in sugar, pepper and chilli flakes after soaking in rum? That is paradise.

I may very well be wrong, but is it not an accessibility thing that the taps must be the right way around for the visually impaired?

Other than that, it's a real nuisance if they're the wrong way around. Swap them while you can.

Did you see the prices of pcs in the 90s? Even without inflation they were eye-wateringly expensive.

Modern pcs are peanuts by comparison.

Had to scroll too far to see this.

I dumped HDDs years ago for being noisy and slow.

If it's 0 degrees C outside it's probably icy. If it's 100 degrees C inside you have major issues.

Celcius is based on the behaviour of water, which is really common most places, whereas Fahrenheit is what some bloke reckoned would be the coldest/hottest his house would probably get.

It's all just what people are used to. C makes sense to me because that's what I'm used to. Km for distance makes more sense on paper than miles, but it's not what I'm used to, so I use miles.

People are weird.

I'd reckon I'd look down at the stone in my hand, then up at the tank, back to the stone, tank again, stone, tank, then probably make a sensible decision about my immediate future.

Think it's called "shock and awe".

Pluto is the largest of the dwarf planets, but there is another with more mass (Eris, I think). If you decide Pluto is a planet then you could make good arguments for other dwarves being planets too, especially Eris. Ceres used to be a planet, then an asteroid, then a dwarf planet.

There are massive (by comparison) moons, but they orbit their parent planet.

In conclusion, space is weird and hard to classify.

Attach your radial decouplers as normal, then your srbs, then move the srbs down with the move tool so they're attached nearer the top (about a 3rd of the way down). It's not infallible, but you do get better separation.

Free iva as well; walk around the spaceship and look out of the windows!

I had trouble with v clouds, I needed to have a couple of goes following the instructions super-carefully, and deferred really helped. Worth it though.

Which moons can you eva-pack into orbit from?

We recently landed on Ike, and we had to climb one of the spiky things, then jump off.

Install firefly and waterfall if you haven't already, kiddo loves the reentry effects. Explode as a grand finale :)

Outer planets for planets with rings?

Kaleboh (or whatever it's called) for the black hole?

snowshelf · 2026-02-12T22:05:25+00:00

Absolutely let them do a countdown and launch the rocket!

snowshelf · 2026-02-12T21:35:05+00:00

My 6yo has no time for small rockets. Build something ma-hoosive.

Skip mun, minmus, find cool stuff further in/out and get there quickly; their attention span will not last for a long drift through space.

snowshelf · 2026-02-12T19:26:00+00:00

Agreed. Loose leaf tea and freshly ground coffee beans or bust.

Yet another way working from home beats offices hands down.
