@SandyofCthulhu @radioactivered I will sprinkle them on my cereal and you cannot stop me.

@radioactivered DO NOT EAT THE WAFERS

Junior, please put an atomic wafer in the power box, will you , dear?☢️

@SparksN123 @ElementGeek I’m not a fan of all these fees or government meddling in general, but I’m pretty sure your precedents don’t apply because the Supreme Court would ask you to demonstrate how these things are rights protected by the Constitution, and most of them are not.

Have a think about that.

@Lorgarwasright2 I memorized the third edition. I feel no need to update.

@diegomayra @ThatGuyYouKnowF Come over to the commercial side. It's worse, but you don't have to deal with crawlspaces. Usually.

@ThatGuyYouKnowF As someone who worked in HVAC, I was lied to. I spent over 50% underneath and above enclosed living spaces.

@RaphaelBizmann @ThatGuyYouKnowF Millwright is just all of them at the same time. Only with tighter deadlines, no support, and no budget.

@ThatGuyYouKnowF Once again, Millwrights are forgotten when it comes to tradesmen memes.

@fierceasymmetry @Lorgarwasright2 You can do that in 30k. Pick a Yeomanry Mesnie and you can add some dirt covered peasants with sticks.

@Lorgarwasright2 The army needs some infantry units a la Bretonnian men at arms. They should have the same "hyper elite nobles leading trash mob peasants and yeomen" vibes.

@kangminlee No, but it's going to be a part of my arsenal going forward.

Has anyone ever used "fish head" as a racial slur before?

@RaltsAuthor @johndrewmarkley @planefag The entire reason that Larry Niven's Ringworld had a sequel is because a fan pointed out that his physics did work quite right. Larry wrote another whole ass book to patch a hole in his world building.

@johndrewmarkley @planefag Oh, I didn't know that. Huh, seems like writing scifi must be harder than I thought.

Looking at the planned appendix for my sci-fi "bolos with the serial numbers filed off" story again; this beautiful concise briefing document for policymakers explaining how the Big Tanks are just big enough to cram in an aneutronic fusion reactor, usually only found on naval vessels or city powerplants, and how multiple economy-of-scale feedback loops innate to the engineering of that give it ridiculous power-to-mass/volume and thus allow something the size of a large barn to survive in terrestrial combat by being significantly more shooty than all the shooty things that have LOS to its big ass. This was before some kind twitter person who actually knew what he was talking about informed me that aneutronic fusion isn't considered "pipe dream until well after we figure out baby's first net-positive fusion reactor" but literally "according to all theoretical science and engineering now in hand, effectively impossible." My "step two, then a miracle occurs" was "there will likely be significant engineering economies of scale innate in various superconducting and cryogenic technologies, and in being able to set up a more complex magnetic containment field (requiring more field coils and emitters everywhere.) Handwavium wasn't supposed to power the *entire tank* and thus the plot. I mean the story features Big Robot mecha powered by magical gi- I mean, ~psionic sensitives~ so it's not like I'm hell-bent on hard sci-fi relativistic torchships only but I like writing sci-fi because I'm a retard so inventing entire magical/power systems from scratch with consistent rules that make for an interesting world is beyond me; it's so much easier to copy the homework of the math nerds. But I'm too dumb to even do that. This novel is dead. Dead!

@_PaleblueDot__ @planefag Good SF is just an eloquent physics dissertation.

@planefag Are you writing fiction or are you writing a physics dissertation? Focus on themes, characters, and narrative, that's the hard part anyway.

@spikesguides @GoneFishin8gain Sometimes they hire teleporting ninjas. They will tell you your package is two weeks out and it shows up the next day.

@GoneFishin8gain Know who has never wronged me? DHL. They won't tell you where it's at or when it'll get to you but it always shows up.

I hate the postal system so much, it's unreal. Please tell me I am not alone in this. They've had my box FOR A WEEK, JUST SITTING THERE! THEY JUST KEEP ADDING ONE MORE DAY TO THE DELIVERY DATE LIKE I WON'T NOTICE IT! THEY WON'T SEND ME MY DAMN BOX! LET ME COME AND GET IT OR GIVE ME IT, YOU BASTARDS! Every time I order a box from USPS, it's GURANTEED to take a week longer than anyone else! I WOULD TRUST DHL'S DRUNKEST AFRICAN BUSH PILOT OVER THE USPS! I WOULD TRUST A HOMELESS GUY WITH A FENT PROBLEM OVER THE USPS! I WISH OBAMA AXED THE USPS WHEN HE HAD THE CHANCE!

@MonitorWarnow @PooWorldOrderr @nikitabier You are so fucking desperate.

@PooWorldOrderr @nikitabier Suspend this account, he is spreading 24/7 hatred against Indians.

Good morning saaaaars!

@samuel_costner Don't you talk shit about claymore roomba.

We don't need humanoid robots to sweep the house. No hint of the image of God for clankers. We need R2D2s. The world needs trash can robots and fix-it droids.

@CandyCats357 "Wanna go to the range this weekend?"

It’s none of my fucking business.

@basedganyu You wound me terribly, but I can't disagree.

North Carolina's should be a hi point

@flufferbot01 @emm0sh @i2cjak Hi.

@emm0sh @i2cjak Jeezus where is the HVAC guy saying ‘that’s how I’ve always done it’

electrical engineer here! What the fuck!

@brim006 I was never radicalized. I grew up this way.

What radicalized you?   For me, it happened back in my freshman year of high school in the early 2000s. The head coach of our hockey team believed in getting the team home to our own beds after road games no matter what instead of staying in hotels. Hotels were a distraction. With no hotel costs, he wanted to use the money to upgrade our road meals. Nothing fancy, just basic meat and potatoes type places like Cracker Barrel or Perkins instead of cold Little Caesars on a dark January bus ride home across rural North Dakota. The athletic director and superintendent shut the idea down and basically just absorbed the savings from his no hotel policy into the athletics budget. So after that our coach, the other assistants, the parents, and us players started fundraising in the off‑season in hopes to get better meals on the road. The first year went great. We raised a ton and were easily able to have nicer sit down meals on every single trip. We all sat together at big tables, had actual food choices, ate healthier and built even more camaraderie. It was fantastic all around. But then other sports teams and parents caught wind. It was seen as unfair. The AD, principal, and superintendent demanded we stop, in order to keep things “equal” across all sports at our public school. They even tried to force our coach to hand over the privately raised money so it could be redistributed. Thankfully, our coach was an old‑school Canadian ex‑pro hockey player who didn’t take shit from anyone, and told them to F off, and we continued with our meatloaf road meals as planned. The principal and AD eventually backed off, but the superintendent had a vendetta against our team and probably mostly just our coach so he never stopped. He even went as low as instructing bus drivers not to take us to the restaurants we’d planned for on the road. Our coach always overrode it, once even driving the bus himself since he had the license from coaching cross‑country. Over the next few years we continued the fundraising for better meals. Some of the other teams, and other parents continued to badger the supt., our coach and even sometime us players about it instead of just joining us in fundraising. Watching peers and especially some of our own “leaders” work so hard to sabotage a positive thing for us was eye opening and really stuck with us. It gave us an early look at how petty and nefarious and systems and people can be, even at the local level. And honestly, in the end, all it did was radicalize about 30 teenage hockey players for the rest of their lives who walked away believing “equality” was the dirtiest word in the English language. 😂
