If there was justice then Elon would get spacex yanked away from him or shutdown.

If there were justice, Boeing would be bankrupt.

The plan was always for spacex to rescue them, but for some reason it couldn’t be done until early this year. Something about the launch schedule.

Yep, because sending a ship to the ISS is like calling an Uber to get you home, right....
Of course the plan was always for SpaceX to rescue them, they are the only ones that have the capability and a working ship. But that does not means that they can cram another unscheduled launch with such short notice on top of the schedule they already have.

Now for him to claim that the astronauts were abandoned by the previous administration while saying they can’t be rescued yet says either maliciousness or incompetence.

To be honest, that is what I was reading from the start of this story basically everywere, it is not that Musk said something no one ever said.

So, I get the you dislike Musk, but accusing him for not readily solve a problem created by the incompetence of others (Boeing) does not seems that fair.

Yes, if the person do it in the wrong place.

See, the problem with people like you is that they think that every place is the right place to talk about everything. And then call bigots the ones that point out "look wrong place to discuss these topics".

But what you fail to explain is why it should be allowed. If there is a division into topics (be them subreddit, lemmy communities or whatever) it means something. It is not that on StackOverflow you can discuss about personal relationships, there are site of the network dedicated.

True, but this does not mean that everyplace is the right place to talk about everything.

[–] gian@lemmy.grys.it 3 points 2 weeks ago (4 children)

The problem is: why do you need to talk about these arguments in a game subreddit ? Or in any other place not dedicated to these arguments ?

Yes, if you sign up to be a mod, you are signing up to moderate. That includes dealing with whatever hate falls into your community.

Just keep in mind that "dealing" can also mean "nuke everything off topic".

I get the hate for Musk, but honestly the SLS program should have been already terminated. It has not yet delivered anything, it is overbudget of orders of magnitude, and even if it will deliver something, it will be orders of magnitude more expensive.

I get what you’re saying but the forgetful customer is explicitly what they said they want, which is dumb any way you look at it.

I don't disagree on that.

Many times you’re forced into signing up for subscription, or coerced under the guise of a free trial. Now this wouldn’t be as bad if they came back and were like, “hey we see you haven’t used our service in a while, do you still need it?”

Maybe, but at this point I doubt that a forgetful customer would pay attention to it. What would really make the difference would be to renew the subscription explicitly. This way you could be forced to sign for a false free trial, but you would also need to confirm a subsequent subscription.

rather than just leeching money from the user. The system is designed to purposely allow the user to make these errors and that’s wrong any way you want to shape it.

Yes, this is another way to see it. But the solution in my opinion is not to eliminate the concept of subscriptions. The solution is to educate the customer.

Fine, but this is on the buyer not on the seller.
I mean, if you buy a subscription to something and then don't use it (or forgot to cancel while not using it) is not really a seller fail: you would have wasted your money even you'd have bought it without a subscription.

I get subscriptions are (mostly) bad, but it is not always a seller fault and the buyer should be aware of what he is doing or spending money.

and then simulating all the toolpaths to be able to export the G code for a CNC machine. I don’t know how much of what I saw is smoke and mirrors, but even if that is a stretch goal it is quite significant.

My point was that this already tested on a smaller scale with ships: the fuel changed and that changed the exhaust fumes ability to reflect sunlight which cause some problems the proponents of the solution have not foresee.

[–] gian@lemmy.grys.it 1 points 3 months ago

I remember to have read that change caused some other problems, and these collateral problems were unexpected.

But I don't remember if the problem were about the ocean currents or that the ocean was warmer or a mix of the two plus something else.

[–] gian@lemmy.grys.it 1 points 3 months ago (4 children)

There are gasses and particles that can be released into the atmosphere that will reflect sunlight and warmth away from earth. In theory that could be done very quickly.

As far as I remember, that was tried with ships and it has some collateral effects that cause different damages to the oceans.

 

The 4.5 Omega Update is out

https://www.nomanssky.com/omega-update/

 

Someone know where to post a feature request for a Proton App ?

Specifically, I'd like to ask to add the option to backup the photos from ProtonDrive on Android even using the mobile data connection and not only using a WIFI connection.

 
 

After 7 years of vanilla (or lightly modded) game, with the new update I decided to give a try to use some more mods. I'd like to have more varied planets and scenarios, with some more QoL improvements.

For now I downloaded these mods:

-Better Planet Generation -DUD'S SKY - COLORS -DUD'S SKY - TERRA FIRMA -Exosolar's Deadzone III - Revenge of the Deadzone -Exosolar's Expanse -Reduce Pulse Speed Lines -Atmosphere Hover - Pulse Speed Adjustments -Gumsk's Base Building - gBase -Fast Actions 5.7 -Instant Text Display - ITD -Exosolar's Quick Scan with Range Boost -Disable Auto Aim - Aim Assist

Assuming they all work togheter, any other suggestion ?
