@tardy saddle these are the Rods from God

telephone pole length tungsten rods dropped from orbit that would reach mach 10

iirc the idea is that they'd get SPEEDY if dropped from orbit

For smaller ground targets

The US air force once considered/had a concept for using them IRL and I think it's fucking great that some of the smartest people went "Ok, but what if we dropped a rod from space"

I thought i saw this concept used on the TV show Babylon 5 in the 90s. I believed they called it the planet destroyer . This concept is older then I thought.

I had a buddy in 1996 talking about spikes being used to launch from satellite he was into conspiracy theories back then. I said oh you saw the episode too dumb ass

either way you can just delete that, as all it is, is an incomplete install

#

Rods from god or “Project Thor” has actually been tested. The US military decided its way too expensive to get the satellite and rods up there as they’re so heavy. It would require them to pay for almost an entire rocket per satellite. But there’s also another reason why they looked into it. You’re not allowed to fire weapons from space at the planet, such as nukes, missiles etc. Basically anything that delivers ordinance. But a metal rod technically doesn’t fall under that classification meaning you can side step international law a bit.

So I got the rarest Oreo

I get performance problems when playing Forza Horizon on HDD

#

It seems nowdays loading times is not the only problem anymore when running from Hdd

subtle mantle
#

I'm assuming more and more games are taking advantage of SSDs in streaming in assets rather than loading them into memory. Probably because a lot of people are still using 16gb.

west wraith
#

Imo you should toss that in the recycle bin and get an SSD even the cheapest you can get will be 200* better then a HDD

fierce wadi
#

but the game is 100gb big for just a racing game

west wraith
#

That's normal now ay

fierce wadi
#

yes normal bad

#

delete those fking cringe cutscenes from the game

west wraith
#

Normal good, I like the bigger world better graphics as technology and time advances

fierce wadi
#

no normal bad in a sense that it could be smaller

#

Like Call of Duty

#

which is 200gb big for looking like dog

#

These games are badly compressed or something but RDR2 is 100gb and looks better + is a way bigger game

tall creek
fierce wadi
#

yeah its a bit annoying for me

#

copying 100gb from HDD to SSD takes a while now ...

All new games with hype like that get backlogged tho

fierce wadi

Yes but this was because people stoped playing after a while

#

Also you had like thousands of people trying to join a single server

#

Its still a lot but they cant hold up a small amount of players when you compare it to their streaming service

Yeah they didn't expect so many players at once

yes i was surprised kinda

but its starting to lose players we will see how much will remain when they hype is over

I has question. Why don't we set up a verification gate so the bots can't get through?

#

i.e make it so civ role isn't automatically applied, and only applied when clicking a 'verification' reaction role
(Hide all channels from people without the civ role, and have only 2 channels (Rules and information, Verification) shown to people without a role, or just send the verification message with the reaction role in #rules_and_information)

#

I suspect it'd be a bit more work and more annoying to new members than just banning the bots as they come along though Coffindance1

unreal dune
#

Like actually 100% exactly what you suggested

mystic flint
#

Oh. Huh? Thought the bots didn't have the functionality to get through it though

unreal dune
#

First, most of the spam/scam we're getting right now is from phone-verified accounts from hijacked people

#

They don't

#

But they do have the ability to scrape the entire user list

#

Even without being able to actually see the server and channels

mystic flint
#

Is the member list still visible after hiding verification channel from civ role?

unreal dune
#

Not to an average user

#

But a Bot can still pull that data from the Discord API

#

Which renders the activity pointless

mystic flint
#

Ahhh

Damn! Well good to know

That's utterly fucked. Wonder when discord is going to find some way to be rid of them, When I used to run a server it was a pretty common problem, and it still is years later what

@marble viper So, basically you can set PTT buttons of your keyboard that will send your voice to anyone connected to voice who has that role.

Mixed with self assignable roles, you have a system where you have basically have 'radio channels' in guilded.

Then you have tired comms so that groups can fall under other groups, with the top most group being able to send voice communications to all communication brackets listed underneath it.

#

ACRE is obviously much cooler since it's in-game and location based (distance, etc)

#

Mixed with Star Citizen's in-game comms though, guilded provides pretty much everything you need in a nice neat package.

subtle mantle
#

Yes.

marble viper
#

Or is this way to complex

subtle mantle
#

It would be complex obviously, but its possible.

#

Take for example my briefing rooms here

marble viper
#

Christ

subtle mantle
#

"Briefing" is a voice channel and then I have room 1 through 5.

marble viper
#

I'm bad at stuff without visuals

subtle mantle
#

Someone in "briefing" can send voice to everyone in 1-5 all at once if they want.

#

But, lets say you and I were in Briefing 1 and someone else was in Briefing 5.

#

So, you can I could talk openly in Briefing 1 without talking over anyone else in Briefing 5- like a normal discord group.

#

Here is the neat part.

#

You, me, and the person in 5 though can click on a self assignable role called "Channel 1" (for example).

Then we can assign a keybind for "Channel 1" PTT to something like "9" or something.

#

When I push 9, anyone who has the role "Channel 1" will hear what I'm saying, even if they're in a different room.. So it works as a radio channel essentially.

marble viper
#

Pain

subtle mantle
#

It's more capable than TS.

marble viper
#

If you look at my flow chart, air command aka my ATC has 4 channels to manage

#

Someone is gonna cry setting that up lol

subtle mantle
#

It's probably more intimidating than it really is.

#

You really just have to have your own comm channel and the tier below and above on PTT.

marble viper

#

With self assigned roles it is really easy to adjust as needed too.

#

Hey guys

#

I need your advices

#

i'm kinda bored

#

I never had a good gaming pc

#

and I got one 2 weeks ago

#

went from 15-30 fps to 144+ on a lot of games

#

and I got curious which is good

#

I tried Apex legens, Valheim

#

I rediscovered Destiny 2 60+ fps

#

but i'm kinda bored

#

i can't explain it

#

I played too much of destiny so i'm going to stop that

#

I only play Valheim with friends and not for so long. That's not the type of game I want to spend 3 hours at. I prefer having short quality time with friends during the valheim sessions

#

Apex is nice but kinda competitive and i m bad at FPS games. so for me it's a "try hard" game, which I don't like playing all the time

#

I need game advices for times like now

#

since I didn't have a gaming pc for a while. I didn't follow up what games I could play etc

#

I just want to have fun in a game whenever I launch it

#

I played genshin impact at its launch but, as you all know.. no end game and it's a gatcha.. basically you get novelty once a year with a new MAP for a couple of weeks until you discover everything and you get noveltybby buying new characters..

quaint epoch
#

the games in my current multiplayer rotation are PGA TOUR 2K21, Fallout76, Human Fall Flat and Forza Horizon 4 but that will but Horizon 5 soon.

#

i play all those games with different friends, generally a good time, not try hard at all, well golf can be if your friends are twats

lethal seal
#

hmmm

#

it's interesting

#

i could join a multi gaming community to play games like PGA TOUR 2K21 or Human fall flat

#

i never played fallout games but

#

I only heard bad stuff about them

#

I know there is a big fallout community but I always heard about the games not being popular or smtg

quaint epoch
#

PGA has an active enough community that you can queue up with randoms mo problem

but i don't know if I want to play golf ...

#

fallout76 has a bad rep but my friend convinced my to get it and its not all bad haha

gamepass and other similar subscription game library services grant you access to a library of buy-once non-MMO games, indie and AAA alike

once you stop paying though you no longer have access to any of them; it's games as a service, even more detached than the digital license you'd get for buying a digital game

Just so people are aware you can play it for $20 haha.

Someone mentioned it on another Discord channel I'm in.

first month was $1, after that it was the normal rate

distant condor

Ahh right, still not bad.

#

Get to play Back 4 Blood, FH5, AoE4 and Halo Infinite when it releases.

quaint epoch
#

oh ya I have been using it for B4B too 👌

#

but i'm going to try FH5 first and if it's every bit as good as FH4 then i'll just buy it and stop paying for the game pass. which i didnt want to do for long

#

maybe Back4Blood too but that one really depends on my friends' interest

My mate was able to get it again, no idea how. Maybe he just used a different account.

at least, now. maybe when they first started doing that people could abuse it

#

So say we achieve nuclear fusion

#

Like we create basically a mini Star for energy

#

Would we then open up the possibility for that process to eat itself up eventually by using up its eternal source and cause an event similar to a star burning out? When the energy is converted so much it rapidly expands and melts down

#

After all nuclear fusion is based on the concept of efficient fusion similar to stars

I wish I still had my copy of it, but that's one that disappeared a long time ago. I'm not advocating anything here, but there is no official way to obtain the game anymore, aside from buying a used copy (if you can find one). So it's up to you how you get it.

# jolly remnant Drinking helps.

I had to quit drinking last year for immune health reasons. I still smoke plenty of weed but hard to bring that across state lines for family stuff

jolly remnant
#

but it was weird, AZ recognized the CA RX, but wouldn't let you buy in AZ.

raw stag
#

I have RX but idk if IL will recognize MI rx. So I don't bother

jolly remnant
#

Now its just legal here period. So I tell her to keep up the RX for the two or 3 times a year we might head to AZ.

#

just occurred to me, makes more sense for her to get the RX in AZ now.

#

since like... you dont need one at all out here.

raw stag
#

Well... you will likely pay more tax for recreational vs medical

#

That is how it is here in MI

#

So worth keeping your rx up to date

jolly remnant
#

Weeds dirt cheap here.

#

I mean so cheap that black markets are upset cause like... if you aint growing it, you aint making much proift anymore

#

I remebr when I did smoke that 1/8ths of good wee were $50

#

now 1/8ths of PHENOMINAL weed are like $35

#

not to mention you can pick and choose whatever you want. I haven't smoked in years, but for my wife, its like a candy store, she knows what she wants for a head high, a body high, to help her sleep, or to maintain when she's doing art stuffs.

raw stag

That is how it is for me. I have specific stuff I get. I am not gonna just buy whatever my neighbor is growing

I believe you

Droids will always be stupid af

#

But ehh

#

Makes it better in my eyes

fierce wadi
#

Droids are funny but its S3 when it gets a lot better.

raw stag
#

I just head canon it as the separatists being cheap af and using bad computers

fierce wadi
#

S1 was alright but I hated S2 and the whole Cad bane arc.

raw stag
#

Makes the high end droids even scarier imo

golden yarrow
#

Legends Droids

#

Are crazy cool

fierce wadi
#

Yeah also that, CIS didn't focus on building good just on building big

#

Like coppertop? Hes cool.

golden yarrow
#

They were payed per unit not by quality

golden yarrow
raw stag
#

Gotta pump that production up

#

I will try to watch some more tonight

golden yarrow
#

I don’t recommend it but go watch some S3 episodes

#

And come back

fierce wadi
#

No

golden yarrow
#

What

fierce wadi
#

First watch rookies and the Season 1 ryloth arc

#

Then go watch S3

golden yarrow
#

Ok fair

#

Cuz who cares about cad bane

fierce wadi
#

IKR. I hate that arc.

golden yarrow
#

It’s just a waste

#

Could have gotten way better stuff

fierce wadi
#

Yeah I agree

#

Could have done so much better.

golden yarrow
#

Idk more stuff on geonosis would have been cool

#

Or an attack on the ship yards

fierce wadi
#

Yeah or like when the CIS attacked Kel Dor

golden yarrow
#

I recognize the name

#

Don’t have anything to place it against

fierce wadi
#

Would have been really intresting to see cuz that is a planet that is hard to get to

golden yarrow
#

That’s where uhh

#

fierce wadi
#

Sorry Kel dor is the race, Dorian is the planet

golden yarrow
#

fierce wadi
#

Yes Plo koon

golden yarrow
#

Would be interesting

#

I really enjoyed the fighting on mon calla

#

It added some really cool cannon stuff

fierce wadi
#

Yeah that was super cool.

#

I really liked the Kamino battle

#

Thatis one of my favs

golden yarrow
#

Also gave more depth into the battle of Kamino

#

99 was probably one of my favorite characters

fierce wadi
#

Yeah 99 was cool.

golden yarrow
#

He actually has a few pages of lore

#

On wookiepedia

fierce wadi
#

Tho what would been a cool arc in S7 would be the Dark Disciple arc. Much better than that one with the two annoying sisters

#

Really?

golden yarrow
#

lol

#

More stuff on mandalore would have been cool

#

Like showing more fighting

#

I’m so sad that it’s over

fierce wadi
#

Ehhhh. Idk I think they did all they could with Mandalore.

golden yarrow
#

After so many years of watching that show over and over again

#

I can’t believe it’s over

fierce wadi
#

Same...

#

But we knew it must end eventually

golden yarrow
#

Yea…… unfortunately

#

I’ve been trying to get my gf to watch it with me

#

Give me another excuse to watch it again

fierce wadi
#

I mean like timeline wise the CW only lasted for like 3 years.

golden yarrow
#

I think it was 6?

#

I don’t entirely remember

fierce wadi
#

Nope. It was 3

golden yarrow
#

Yea your right

fierce wadi
#

Tho in rebels I really wished they had a cody vs rex scene.

golden yarrow
#

Idk

#

Didn’t Cody get killed off in legends though

fierce wadi
#

Eh that is one story

golden yarrow
#

Granted it’s not cannon

#

But still

fierce wadi
#

Another and the more used is after O66 Cody became like head of stormtrooper training.

golden yarrow
#

Idk why but I do not like Cody at all

#

Yea there was something like that with it

#

And multiple where after all the stuff he went though just dies to something stupid

wintry sleet
#

daily reminder that the CIS were the good guys

#

that is all

golden yarrow
#

I mean

#

It can be seen both ways

#

Personally

wintry sleet
fierce wadi
#

So he could've gone to the lothal training center for inspection. Rex attacks it, cody wanting to fight again goes out and meets him. So its just them either Melee fight or shoot out while screaming at each other calling the other one the traitor.

golden yarrow
#

The empire was in the all up until they blew up a planet

fierce wadi
#

The CIS was only created to start a war to Kill off Jedi.

golden yarrow
#

No?

fierce wadi
#

Yes.

wintry sleet
#

Negative.

#

The CIS were coopted to do that.

#

They were their own entity prior.

golden yarrow
#

Palps maniuapted them

#

However you spell it

wintry sleet
#

Palps took advantage of the situation and manipulated them*

fierce wadi
#

Thats way palpatine did the whole Clone wars. To kill off jedi and a large scale without them knowing.

wintry sleet
#

At the outset, the CIS genuinely were the good guys.

golden yarrow
#

He ran both sides of the war remember

golden yarrow
fierce wadi
#

Yes Palpatine took corrupt planets like Nemododia but also upset ones like Raxus and made them take up arm.

golden yarrow
#

They were the good guys until they were basically wiped out from the inside

fierce wadi
#

But the whole point was to kill jedi.

wintry sleet
#

No.

golden yarrow
#

Yea

wintry sleet
#

The CIS existed before Palpatine did anything with them.

golden yarrow
#

But he used them

fierce wadi
#

No...

wintry sleet
#

Yes.

fierce wadi
#

They were upset with the republic yes

#

But the CIS wasn't really a thing till Dooku was sent to make it.

golden yarrow
#

They are a company that existed for a long time

fierce wadi
#

No thats the trade federation

#

The CIS stands for Confederacy of Independent Systems

golden yarrow
#

Fair

#

But they basically ran the CIS

fierce wadi
#

Which we see in episode 2-3. But before that, like in Episode 1, It was just the trade federation.

golden yarrow
#

Under the counts thumb though

wintry sleet
#

The Trade Federation blockade of Naboo was a major catalyst in the formation of the CIS and their secession from the Republic. The TF became part of the CIS later.

golden yarrow
#

^

fierce wadi
#

Yes. The CIS was led mostly by the Banking clan, The Trade federation, and the Techno union.

wintry sleet
#

The entire blockade proved that the Senate didn't give a quarter of a shit about member planets, and that's what cheesed off the CIS.

#

Or, I should say, proto-CIS.

fierce wadi
#

Ok

#

But

#

Who told the TF to make a blockade?

wintry sleet
#

Separatist sentiment existed in groups long before the actual formation of the CIS.

golden yarrow
#

Yea

fierce wadi
#

Yes their were planets that were upset with the republic and Palpatine used that

#

I agree to that

#

But the three main CIS members, TF, BC, and TU

#

Were just greedy cuz Palp promised them money if they do it

#

Why did he promise that? To start a war to kill off jedi.

#

Lying and deceit. Basic tools that every sith knows.

wintry sleet
#

Yes, when Dooku actually initiated the formation of the CIS via his Raxus address, that was the point.

#

Prior to that, that wasn't the point.

#

Prior to that, you had the formation of groups like ORSF that did the Republic's job for them.

#

Because the Republic wasn't actually doing their job.

fierce wadi
#

Yes because the republic was dumb and demilitarized and making planets use their own security for defense.

wintry sleet
#

That was a portion of it, the other portion was massive tariffs placed on every trade route to outer rim systems.

#

That really fucked off the commerce guilds (not the Commerce Guild) and trade corporations.

#

All Dooku did was stir up more secessionist tendencies under one banner, the opinion was already there. Like I said, Palpatine coopted and encouraged the movement, but he didn't create it.

#

It was a convenient thing for him, it wasn't something that he alone came up with.

fierce wadi
#

So you are saying the clone wars would have happened even without Palpatine interferance?

wintry sleet
#

I am saying that there could have been a secessionist crisis without his interference, yes.

#

Would it have played out the same way? Absolutely not.

#

In fact, I'd say that the secessionist states would have had a better time of it without him.

fierce wadi
#

But without palp the TF would have never blockaded Naboo which as you stated was a major reason for systems to lose trust in the republic.

wintry sleet
#

It wasn't the major reason, it was a major reason.

#

The tariffs placed on trade and the lack of policed spacelanes were, arguably, a larger reason.

fierce wadi
#

Well Yeah because Palp didn't want them to actually secessed he wanted them to stay and join the empire.

#

I said a major not the

wintry sleet
#

And that sentiment existed prior, and could have kicked off into an actual war without his interference.

golden yarrow
#

Star Wars politics very complex and interesting

wintry sleet
#

I mean, it's all wishy-washy theorycrafting anyway.

raw stag
#

I just wanted to see cool yodas and stuff

wintry sleet
#

Same as the "what if Germany won WW2" spiel.

fierce wadi
#

Would it tho? Cuz if we think about it. If palp wasn't there dooku would have left the order, Naboo wouldn't have been blockaded, anakin would have never been found by the jedi or at least much later, dooku still being a jedi would convience the planets to stay and fix the republic within and probably joining the senate and start to rebuild the republic military as the planet ones sucked. Also boba wouldn't have been born as the clones wouldn't be created.

#

But yes star wars politics is strange and confusing.

raw stag
#

Do you guys think Jar Jar is really a sith lord?

fierce wadi
#

No he is a dumbass who should have got ran over.

#

He causes problems with his mistakes then fixes them by making more and everyone acts like he is intelligent deep down when he is not.

wintry sleet
#

The rest of the galaxy would have been better off if the Trade Federation had just bombed Naboo from orbit.

Gray Paladin Laranth Tarak exemplified this ability, having such accuracy and quickness with her twin blasters that she could intercept blaster bolts, slugs, and even shrapnel from an explosion with her own blaster bolts, either deflecting or destroying them in the process. So great was her accuracy that she was even able to send one of her own bolts straight up an enemy's blaster barrel.

@golden yarrow does that mean people making NFTs are complicit in money laundering or are they just exploiting the movement?

golden yarrow
#

I mean if you look deeply into it

#

It has many many signs of money laundering

#

Unknown buyers spending hundreds of millions of dollars

#

no one is like “omg someone just spent 30 million on my nft”

Only people who are like that are the people promoting them

Soooooo

not all NFT guys are scammers

lots of people use it to get around paying taxes as well
