Angles/reflection
just another operation?
Correction, I meant ray casting
maybe its RNG lol, since its so many bullets, its easier to just do an RNG for when some bullets bounce
Yes, if the ray meets a wall, it traces another ray based on the angle
based on time spent firing, rather than for every bullet
Yes I imagine rng
yeah it'd make sense
yeah, eve online doesn't do raytracing
or casting
its just, lock on target
because it's online with potentially hundreds of players in a single shard
in the same 'zone' in real time
extra processing power for missiles tho
so despite trying to be kind of a hard science fiction game, it doesn't bother to even handwave teleporting bullets... oh well ๐
They're responsible for Jericho as well, right?
Chris Jericho
Wrestler
wrestling is fake
but the injuries are real
had to fix it with the question
yeah fuck Irak
stoopid Sargon
<:ohsargon:451135765368274954>
the guys like "apologizing is ridiculous, unless! UNLESS it's France, because.." fuck france I guess?
apparently he's into that victim mentality
@What Would Jack Conte Do? France should apologize for giving us Post-modernism and Quebec.
all other wounds heal tho, except when it's recent - then they scar
nvm that scars don't ever heal
He would have said the same about the us with slavery, ect. Even though as time goes no one is left alive from those ages. And the africans are now submitting to their new overlords. The Islamists, Chinese, or Radical Ethnonationalists respectively.

This comment is top notch

haha
You know the hat thing makes sense. As we dont salute without headgear or indoors (except ceremony). As you take your headgear off indoors.

There was an older theory that native americans in the east part of North America were Europeans, but this is suprising
nice
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uqKGREZs6-w Lets colonize mars, because its worth it for.... reasons
#GermanLogic
<:pepeping:466401908811235329>
Should be USA logic
Before the Ching Chongs get there
nah, the USA will land on mars, succeed in a return trip (after a few failed tries)
and then public will lose interest, just like the moon landings
because there's no profit in going to mars
also it says 'nuclear power will exist on the mars colony for the first 3 years or so"
why not permanent nuclear power? lol
wasn't there something about mining the moon for nuclear resources
i dunno
it seems like all other energy sources on mars are completely unfeasible besides nuclear power
Because it would require shipping fissile material and reactors from earth
and walking outside could probably only be done once per week or once per month, due to having to filter out all the dust
Whish wouldn't be cost or time effective at all
and having suits that are left ouside is dumb.... how do they maintain them?
the entire mars venture isn't time effective or cost effective lol
But yeah colonizing Venus seems more feasible
why venus??
Sun
oh solar power?
is that it?
lol
i mean we can't really terraform venus either
but whatever
Honestly just build a ton of solar panels on some planet and Beam power back to earth
lol
i guess
not as efficient as oil tho maybe
or nuclear power
I wrote this comment in the kurgeCRINGE mars video
-----------------------------
2019: Debut some spaceship.
2020: Get more investors.
2021: Deliver more hot air.
2022: Get more investors.
2023: Sweep 10 more failed ventures under the rug, and bribe the media to 'forget' about it.
2024: Get more investors.
2025: Start a minor LEO space tourism venture.
2026: Get more investors.
2027-2035: Virtue signal more and more about Mars as investors dump in money.
2036: "Go to Mars" reality TV show is a flop. There's is a plan to go home, but some things go wrong, and the whole crew dies.
2060: Elon Musk refuses to retire, but is so senile that he can no longer give coherent speeches. This continues for a year or so until all investors have finally lost confidence. No one now mentions Elon Musk, except in the past tense.
2037 - 2088: A handful of more ventures occur, driven by entrepreneurs who were inspired by Elon and charismatic enough to attract continued investment. Mars mania is about to fade until some crews succeed in return trips, but no venture is taken beyond this. The thrill is lost by 2087 or so. This is just like the moon landing.
The Next 1000 Years: No one cares about Mars beyond tourism possibilities or science. Space stations orbit above mars, to send probes down to collect samples. The probes then blast off back to the space station above, to deliver the samples back to the lab. That sorta thing.
The moon however? There is a future on the moon, IMO; even a few permanent colonies. The distance makes it more economically feasible, and there was an argument for benefit to industry.
@What Would Jack Conte Do? I agree with the message mostly
However oil isn't actually that efficient
If you consider the war cost to keep the world status quo on America's part
And I agreed when should have some colonies on the moon, but the problem is that there isn't anything there
Water, minerals
mercury's also a good place for colonies, if we wanna get that dyson sphere built (and utterly destroy mercury as a result of massive strip mining to build the sphere, lol)
there's elements and metals on the moon or something
i was some essential element
can't remember which tho
i think it was this one
helium-3
used with deuterium for fusion (assuming fusion is invented)
supposedly 1.1 million tons of helium-3 in the first few meters of lunar topsoil
shorter video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n9EMcyfGMDA
that is crazy tho... the moon could become the saudi arabia of the future
can't wait for moon dictators who keep their women in space burkas
just saying
since this is a history channel
landing on mars will be to space expeditions what the storming of the bastille was to the French revolution
getting people on mars is really just a symbol
*> space burkahs*
Memri hologram tv
@What Would Jack Conte Do? why would we build a dyson sphere already and kill majority of life on earth
Knock Knock "Whos there?" "Your favorite hair style!"

poor kids...
war, war never changes...
Ondsinet likes floating cities on venus
<:pepe_eyes:378719408362881024>
<:GWjiangLoveHeart:408280788749254658>
Gib extraterrestrial city
Excited as shit
In uk only rip
is this movie good?
What movie
they shall not grow old @Ondsinet
No u
ungrateful little shit
Rude
no u
Oof
there was a boardgame called "Year of the Rat" released in 1972, about the 13 week communist offensive that was going on in the same year
surrounding the vietnam war which was ongoign at the time
they released a boardgame about it, lol
usually people are like 'too soon'... especially given TV at the time
@Den Rรถda Smurfen I dunno, presumably it'd channel the UV rays back to earth or something
there'd still be sunlight, it's just that most of the solar energy that doesn't touch earth goes back to earth as well
via the sphere
there needs to be an elon musk emoticon... for now I'll stick with launching a moon crusade against the moon saudis
its not uk only? @Goblin_Slayer_Floki
The link was region locked to UK via BBC
im in france, and i can watch it
Well it was locked to the us then o.o
BUT HOW DOES IT TASTE
Nice
what does hotep mean
some kangz shit
hotep niggas are black imperialist/reject western culture
NigGTOW
haha
@Militant now do the same thing but with black "israelites"
Itโs the same shit
Itโs the blacks that mixed with some libtard Jews
There is no such thing as black Israelites
lol they wish
they're straight up nigger
They also seriously believe the khazar theory
oh? what's that
Some bullshit anti Zionist propaganda the โPalestiniansโ made up to deny Ashkenazi Jewish connection to Israel
Thinking that ashkenazi jews are originated from the khazars
Which is completely false and have been proven wrong.
Liechenstein Chad
I thought hoteps were blacks who rejected identity politics?
those arent bad tbh
Independant/self sefficient AND servent to community seems a bit conflicting.
Not dependent but dependable
^
You should be SO self sufficient, that you're over efficient, and transfer that extra back to the community
yup
But if everyone is effecient then the communisty shouldnt need anything by that logic.
But not everyone's efficient, thus the need for community charity
too bad most people arenโt naturally charitable or generous
@MountainMan If that were true then civilization would have never existed
?
The welfare state supplants the naturally emergent phenomenon of charity that communities develop on their own
most of civilization has been run because of capitalism and work
not because people give stuff away for free
Mmk, then I guess charity didn't exist prior to the 1960s then
only time everyone gives to the community is if they need to
lol
If I had more time right now I'd rake your ass over the coals
just @ me later and educate me then
@Fitzydog oi raking people over the coals violates the NAP
Sometimes you gotta do what you gotta do
Even if it violates NAP
Damn
cool
@MountainMan So yeah, I'm just confused where you got the idea that community welfare and charity somehow had to be compulsory.
This is so far removed from the truth, it hurts lol
Up until mid part of the 20th century, charity was completely voluntary, and it actually operated *better* than it did before welfare. (At least, in Anglo nations, where we don't leave old people outside to die...)
Within communities, altruism among an in-group is a part of human nature, as long as the emergent phenomenon is not interfered with, which is what happened with the introduction of welfare.
Prior to welfare, you saw very little in the way of individual homelessness and starvation, as long as there was a community to facilitate the assistance.
This also meant that recurrence was less of an issue, because it was assumed you would pay back the assistance in some way, else face ostracization. The use of charity truly was a 'net' in the sense that you did not stay in that position, and those providing it wanted you to be off of it as soon as possible.
The most common welfare nets of the day were those of your local church, and being a participating member insured that in the event you fell on hard times, you would not be in fear of being left out in the cold. Service guaranteed safety, in a sense.
As to the modern phenomenon of people not giving to charity, I would argue that its a byproduct of compulsory welfare taxation, which simultaneously eliminated the need to belong to a church for social safety, and created a monopoly on charitable resources by making people think they no longer had to donate to charity, because it had already been done via taxation.
Also, bonus statistic: In the US, Republicans donate to charity more than Democrats by an overwhelming margin, even though we have welfare programs.
Also, 91% of people who identify as religious are likely to donate to charity.
Noted and written down. Thanks for the thorough answer.
๐
Meh. Maybe my point of view came from mostly listening to what other people say. And now that I think about it dosent really reflect reality. Me and my whole family donate all the time. <:GWcorbinTopKek:384871333705678868>
blind org gang
reading this wikipedia about John Von Neumann https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_von_Neumann -> suddenly find this gem: "During a Senate committee hearing he described his political ideology as "violently anti-communist, and much more militaristic than the norm". He was quoted in 1950 remarking, "If you say why not bomb [the Soviets] tomorrow, I say, why not today? If you say today at five o'clock, I say why not one o'clock?"[144]"
smartest man in the world (arguably) -> unironically would've pre-emptively nuked commies
Damn, I never heard of that. Very interesting and terrifying
interesting
united states weren't a western ally in 1940
wasn't?
battle of britain is missing!
it only shows allied bombing, not Axis
- but German bombings would seem rather small amount in comparison (not that it would have felt like that at the time)
haha

Well culinary science is a thing, but it's not "cooking"
It boils down to it for the most part, nutrition with an emphasis on the preperation and taste/serving.
Went to culinary school for half a year before realizing it was a dead end field.
*heh heh heh*

https://imgur.com/gallery/k5m0IDx pictures released of the just found carrier USS hornet
whoa, thats pretty cool
Im surprised it stayed whole like that.
Looks like it skid to a hault on the bottom too
i think the shadow is especially neat
Wasn't it scuttled?
They did find the original USS Hornet that did sink in the aftermath of the Battle of the Santa Cruz Islands after she was crippled by the Japanese
Was she one of the ones hit by kamakazi's or was that too early in the war?
she was abandoned after they did cripple her water pumps by a torpedo and several armour piercing bombs did destroy her flight deck. but she did not sink before after the main battle, she was a tough bugger
*Speaking of aerial attacks on Naval vessels....*
How about that USS Liberty incident?
Friendly fire happens all the time in warfare
Sure...
lol 'friendly fire' is your buddy accidentally shooting you in the back from poor muzzle discipline, or being surprised in an intense situation.
Fighter jets firing on the only military vessel in hundreds of miles with an American flag flying above it, after circling it for a good 45min is not 'friendly fire'.
@galesteppes Thoughts on the Liberty incident?
They thought it was an Egyptian ship
It didn't even have an american flag
@Fitzydog you af boys all know a thing or two about friendly fire
