Oh hey, it’s my parents, about literally every topic I wanted to talk about as a kid.

Yes pls gib

I’ve not worn a bikini due to self cons ious about my stomach, but I have worn leggings which are very hugging.

I use a pair of underwear called a gaff (I haven’t clicked on the other comment link to check but I’m guessing it’s a pair) and it pulls everything up nicely. It’s not “unclockable” if someone wants to get up close and inspect, but hopefully anyone that close already knows you well and doesn’t care.

I also use KT tape (DO NOT USE DUCT TAPE) for squishing everything up. No bathroom breaks like that, but I carry a couple small pieces in my purse and tape in a way that I can go, then put on a small piece. Note: I am a grower not a shower, so normally everything can fold up nice and neat, if a little pronounced. If it’s cold out, one pair of underwear is usually enough. Otherwise it’s 2 pairs of normal underwear. I’m chubby so it’s not out of place on me to have a slight bulge in the pelvic area as a woman.

I won’t speculate on sizing, but if tucking underwear is uncomfortable, KT tape can be used to “pull it back” between your legs.

I think it’s also just a fundamental misunderstanding of how vastly, hugely, mind-bogglingly EMPTY space is.

I can’t even comprehend it, and I don’t believe anyone can. Human brains aren’t designed for big numbers.

EVERY PLANET in the solar system (plus pluto and the other planetoids) can fit between earth and the moon. And we’ve had people on the moon! It only took 4 days to get there. Every planet could be passed in 4 measly days. And there’s barely anything between them on a normal day.

Between solar systems is even MORE empty. Less things floating around, since most stuff gets caught in gravity wells, and the light stuff gets shoved out to the edge by stellar winds.

Between galaxies is ALSO more empty than between solar systems. Waaaaaay less particulate stuff. Even less that’s big like rogue planets.

And then you have things called voids where there’s basically nothing. All the galaxies have gathered in filaments that look kind of like soap bubbles, and the voids are the bubble. Nothing inside the bubble. Some bubbles are small, some are huge.

When Andromeda and the Milky Way collide in a few billion years, almost nothing will actually “collide”, in fact it’s basically only going to happen because of how chance works with large numbers, the space between stars in a galaxy is huge, and all the stars will be whizzing by each other and their gravity wells will interact, but they won’t hit each other (except, you know… Statistics and big numbers)

So yeah.

Space is really empty, and big exponents on numbers confuse people.

I know a guy named Sean Murray. Chill dude.

I do a double take every time I’m reminded that NMS has a Sean Murray.

I haven’t played in awhile, but NMS was fun last time I tried it. Honestly, it was fun when a friend gave me their copy in disappointment on day 2. I don’t follow hype trains, having learned my lesson in the 00s… So I didn’t have any expectations for the game beyond the article titles I’d see bashing it. It was genuinely fun before they made it better.

I hope this means they’re adding more lifeforms. I didn’t play too long since I was mid-game in another game, but I keep wanting to check it out again.

A fool and their money are soon parted.

That said, I’m all for sending Klandace to Australia to face charges. Idk if anyone will get their money back, but it’s worth a shot!

They said with confidence, yet having 0 idea what they’re talking about…

Every time I see a comment like this it’s either from a parent that regrets becoming a parent, or someone who has never had kids…

Holodeck nonsense? That’s at least one or two episodes per season.

On whatever surface or bag pocket I place it on/in.

Now whether I remember any of those places… Lol.

My favorite general use one is in my purse, my favorite chunky razor style is with my camping gear, and my favorite dagger is on my outdoors bag.

No idea where my 30 others are and I figure I’ll find them in some box or bag or another. I know I placed a few of the mid tier ones in different survival gear bags…

Both those numbers seem too low. The right one doubly so.

I mean… They would have been right 5 years ago. But then they caught up and are showing some other manufacturers up.

Similarly here, Chinese manufacturers are making progress, and as usual they’re catching up quite well. In a few years I fully expect to see actual competition, and competition benefits everyone.

If you mean that’s where they got the name/premise for the show lower Decks from the titular TNG episode, they’re pretty open about that.

I WAS a little disappointed they didn’t have anyone except Sito referenced during the show. They could have shown all the lower deckers from the tng episode at one point or another, they had 5 seasons and brought back a ton of other people.

Yes pls gib

Hard disagree on the quality, I loved it even if the first episode of s9 had me a little upset at, first. Much like Mitchell was.

The show 100% improved in their last two seasons, and nobody can convince me otherwise. It was great when it aired, it’s held up well since then.

They had been operating for many years under the “gotta make a cliffhanger that can pivot to a movie in case we get canceled” and then a surprise pickup for another season, when they finally thought they were getting another season the network just decided “nah we want new flashy tech heavy shows more in the next 5 minutes” and they got the surprise too late in the season to flesh out an ending without movies.

While I did enjoy the movies, I feel like they would have worked better as 3-4 episodes each in their own season.

Hell, half a normal season would have probably cost less and did more for the story.

I always loved the minor shade the writers tossed around, and the jokes about various governments always made me chuckle.

Honestly the one bit in the clipisode where they inform other governments of the program where the Chinese ambassador says “the government of China doesn’t hide thing from it people” was hilarious then and it’s double hilarious now, just for different reasons. I’d love to know how writers of the show might have dealt with the last few year. Some may have refused to write for a show glamorizing the US military anymore. I know I would have by now. Or put in so many negative things the producers would fire me.

But yeah, I love all 10 seasons, and if every copy in the world were destroyed, I have 5 different backups of the Blu ray and DVD sets. In fairness those backups also contain the rest of my movies and shows, it’s not just contained to sg1…

I think 11 or 12 would have been perfect to wrap up all the story bits. I loved every bit of the show.

The problem was the network dropped them the ONE FUCKING TIME they thought they were getting another season, so they assumed they had more time to flesh out the end.

Coaxed into a snafu!

Attest the goon, make a deal for them to call a supervisor out.

Keep going until there are no more supervisors left in the company and the ladder is bare.

Sunday nights would certainly become interesting if everyone knew things go back to 1 on Monday.

Without getting into specifics, I’m 100% confident I can cut through up to 12mm of hardened steel in under 10 seconds with one, assuming I get the alignment right and the steel isn’t going to shift on me. Given it’s being called “heavy duty” chain, I’m going to assume a layman’s version of that and say 12mm is probably overkill, but let’s just go with that.

10 seconds of grinding. I’ll give myself 3 seconds to run in, 3 seconds to run away. 6 seconds to cut, we’ll go with 4 of those actually making contact. That’s 3 trips per half-link (you need to cut through both sides of a link to pull the chain apart) so 6 in total to break one strand.

I’d say 30 deaths is generous.

And again without getting into specifics, blood on brushless tools doesn’t do much, especially if I use some corrosion resistant coatings on the sensitive contacts.

Ultimately though, one would hope the immortal being is willing to accept the temporary trolley torture if it means the others can be rescued
