What do people that are for the first time moving to a place where is snows need to know?
  • When there's snow on the ground, drive like you have an open cup of coffee in your lap. Turn, brake, or accelerate too hard and you spill steaming hot coffee on your bits. Winter tires will help a lot, but drive like you don't have them.

    Drop your most "wtf that's not how the world works" from movies/tv shows.
  • Just because a plate stopped a bullet, doesn't mean the plate then distributed that force evenly across it's whole surface. The bulge on the back side of an impacted plate doesn't form gently.

    Throw Out Your Black Plastic Spatula
  • Food should never touch anything artificial. If it hasn't been levitating since the day it was hand harvested from old growth forest, it's basically pure poison.

    Is there a hidden SOS Beacon function while still on the ship?
  • I do know that if you deploy an SOS beacon on mission, it doesn't give you the SOS beacon to redeploy until you quit the game. To me this implies that your "SOS status" is set to On as soon as you deploy a beacon, until you stop playing (or maybe join someone else's game.) If that is the case it would make sense that you could still be flagged as SOS On between missions.

    Is it dumping you on a ship with a mission selected and Hellpods ready to board, or just idle?

    if you can't handle an accidental team kill, then don't play this game. - rant
  • I've noticed that there really can be a real difference between the occasional oopsie teamkill, and someone who is either unskilled or careless. When it's just one guy in the group doing it, and he's racked up 5-7 accidentals, there does need to come a point where responsibility is taken.

    Elon Musk Keeps Saying Trump Will Tank the Economy
  • Well there's the problem, you seem to think that things like basic pattern recognition and an understanding of basic reality are involved in someone deciding they like Trump.

    Russian court fines Google $20,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000
  • And the fact that Google didn't pay them more money than exists in the world will be why Russia blocks Google's operations in the country and seizes every bit of property they can get their hands on that they say was even vaguely related to Google's operations. They didn't even bother with a realistic number, because in the end they don't really care who does or doesn't believe them.

    Trump faces a P.R. disaster
  • Trump's entire political career has been absolutely riddled with what should have been career-ending PR disasters. Nobody can seriously believe that this one, or the last one, or the next one, will somehow be the one to do him in.

    Tony Hinchcliffe doubles down on racist Trump rally jokes and hits out at critics: ‘Change your tampon’
  • ‘I love Puerto Rico and vacation there. I made fun of everyone,’ the comedian said

    This is no different than "I have a black friend, I can't be racist." Absolute clown.

    Smartphone buyers meh on AI, care much more about battery life - 9to5Mac
  • How about making a phone that's a whole millimeter thicker just to make the glass thick and strong enough that it won't break if you drop it?

    Great idea! Unless of course the replacement of parts and broken phones is a core part of the business model.

    The absolute state of online housing discourse
  • Even taking you at your word, just building more houses wouldn't solve the problem unless the other existing issues are solved first. There are already more than enough houses, several times more unoccupied houses than there are homeless people in fact. If you just make it easier to build more, those new houses will just end up in the same situation as the existing lot: bought up by corporate groups as investments, held ransom by landlords, and generally NOT made available to consumers who want to buy a home.

    So yeah. You're gonna see some pushback if you're only making that second argument, all that will do is make the investor class richer without solving any problems.
