  1. Some content has been removed. As per the usual, do not attack the person, attack the argument. Do not make statements solely for the intent of causing an argument.
  2. See, that's part of how they get you... Did they have the ability to cast hollow things then? The only method I know that easily does hollow casting, roto casting, wouldn't really be on their tech level. But the substrate idea is plausible.
  3. As someone who does live on a farm, although it is not mine, I do live in the community here. They do care, but like anybody else, if it's not their pressing need, it falls behind those needs that are. I work in the suburbs. The same thing applies. My girlfriend lives in hipster central downtown of a major urban center, and the same thing still applies. People are aware of what is in front of them, and only take care of what's immediate to them. Once those needs are satisfied, then they will look towards helping others. It's basic human nature. The farmer's work in a co-op style. There are dozens and dozens of vary large "vegative" farms (I say that instead of produce, since a good number of them are soy), and a few livestock (There's actually a huge elk farm, which is odd for Ohio, and oddly an unexpectedly large number of small alpaca farms). Most of the farmers hold full time jobs, while only a couple of them actually own the heavy machinery required to operate farms like these. They schedule their days to have the machinery come in, and the work gets done. While they do hold regular jobs, they're not commuters like myself, so the jobs aren't usually the best paying, and the farms make up their majority of their annual income, while also being a significant expenditure. They are focused on being the most efficient they can be, and that means industrialized modern farming techniques. When I'm in the suburbs (where I'm from originally), everybody is all about ease of access and best value. In the city, the groceries are all organic etc etc type stuff, because that's what they think they want. Personally, I hate it, as I'm used to getting 3x as much stuff for 1/2 the price, but that's mainly cause I live near the source of all it and most people around here have larger families (there's a very large Amish population too), so the grocery (singular, there's 1 in about 20 miles) caters to them. Each group of people aren't truly considering the needs of the others. Of course, my statements themselves can be considered stereotypical and over reaching, but that's kind of the point of my post too. We know what we see. Now, putting on the moderator hat, let's avoid any talk of political stuff. I'm going to let the thread be as is, it's pushing the edge of what we allow on a good day. If we want to discuss the economics, logistics, education and needs of the various regions, do so, but please avoid making statements that we would consider political. Thank you.
  4. Because they’re just horrible movies, Retcon too much, or just don’t fit. I’ll start. Boondock Saints 2 Indiana Jones Crystal Skull Star Wars 8 9 & 10.
  5. Well yes, as those things are supposed to exist pre war, and depleted uranium doesn’t.
  6. Like heck. TUBM smells of elderberries.
  7. Having probably ended up on a government watch list, I can tell you first hand obtaining significant quantities of this is not easy to do. And as mentioned, quite harder pre war.
  8. I highly doubt that anybody with your / our level of investment into the game would consider a refund even a remote option.
  9. Large hadron collider: A revamp that could revolutionise physics https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/science-environment-61149387
  10. Fr8, I’ve merged your post into the KSP Memes thread. I got a sensible chuckle from that.
  11. @FleshJeb I’ve been following this one, and have no clue. But I have been fully expecting @kerbiloidto post a clip from “2010” in regards to aero braking on Jupiter.
  12. Instead of just taking a nap in my car during lunch (@2am), I decide I want snacks and then a nap. zip around the corner to the local speedway gas station. Learn they have been bought out by 7-11, and currently have a 75% off clearance sale on snacks that 7-11 won’t keep. Proceed to spend about $25. I now have a lot of snacks.
  13. That's because this is the "business end" sub for the forums. Most of the posts here directly relate to what we do here, and as such, we keep a close eye on them. Most regular users don't post here unless there's a question or problem.
  14. The not yet made public thread telling KSP2’s release date.
  15. That’s rub. I haven’t noticed either way. To be honest though, I’d rather see the dev team stay with whatever version of unity or tool they are currently using. There’s a precedent here, any time over the past decade the KSP tram has decided to update to a new version of Unity, it has introduced new bugs that basically set the game back a version as we waited for them to be fixed. Some of them really never got fixed, just worked around. This close to release, it’d be ridiculous to change engine versions just because it’s shiny. Imagine the uproar if they said they had to delay another year cause they changed engines and everything broke.
  16. Welcome to the Forums @kspsinsoluciones! We ask that any posts made out of our international sub forums be made in English, or at least include an English translation. Thanks! Pedimos que cualquier publicación realizada en nuestros subforos internacionales se haga en inglés, o al menos incluya una traducción al inglés. ¡Gracias!
