without looking it up, and in absolute terms? probably?

but in output per worker? lol

noita is insane and has absolutely zero handholding. it’s truly hardcore and kinda souls-like in difficulty/lore, but truly excellent!

magicraft is the king in casual spell crafting, very good game to play a bit after work, can call it quits anytime and pick it back up again. just had it’s full launch as well and might still be -20% (about 12€)

fictorum is fairly unique, because it’s first-/third-person and 3D, and also very good with an intuitive spell system and a little bit of indie game jank

it’s not a question of age; it’s a question of origin.

that doesn’t change.

probably cause it’s an austrian invention? which makes it austrian by defintion?

it’s common in germany, but not native…that’s like saying pizza is a german dish…

FYI: it really shouldn’t…

you can just say season 8, but why would you, when a “a shit of ice and fire” is available as drop-in replacement?

“only”

that’s a lot of milking to do…not sure you’ll have time for anything else

bit late to the party, but:

it’s not that reports out of a warzone shouldn’t be questioned… it’s the way the user up top chose to frame their skepticism.

it reeks of alt-right divide-and-conquer tactics…

there’s plenty of people with poor articulation, but this is not that. this is on purpose.

there’s a certain way the far-right tends to speak that’s very distinct, once you start noticing it. and tankies, certainly not by accident, use a lot of the same language.

may i offer you a cactus in these trying times?

this is exactly, and i cannot stress enough just how exactly, the plot of “Don’t look up”

the ejecta themselves would definitely pose a danger, but air supply running out would probably kill you before they impact the moon.

the distance between earth and moon is already significant, the angle shown in the picture is pointing away from the moon, most of the mass would stay in the same place due to gravity pulling everything back together, the orbital path the debris has to take in order to impact is gonna take multiple orbits for most of the debris, and only a fraction will impact on the site pictured.

still dangerous, but not as immediately as one would think.

the only significant projectiles would be a small portion of the debris just off-center from the exit crater (the sort of “cork” shooting out):

• some of that mass would be going the right way
• some of it will be going the right speed to arrive in time before air runs out
• and some of that is gonna rain down roughly in the area the picture was taken at

so it would only be a fraction of a fraction of a fraction that even has a chance of coming down onto the astronaut pictured, but that’s still gonna be enough to be dangerous.

it’s also gonna take a couple days to arrive most likely; the debris is not gonna come straight at the moon, because by the time it makes it there, the moon would have moved and it would miss.

a vanishingly small fraction will move fast enough to impact on a (mostly) direct trajectory. those impactors will still take at least a couple hours, even at close to relativistic speeds, and it’ll consist almost entirely of dust and tiny micro meteorites. the fast movers have to be tiny, because anything larger would be torn apart by the acceleration.

(…actually I’m not sure any material apart from more exotic states of matter like nuclear pasta (which doesn’t exist on earth. yes, that’s an actual technical term) could even theoretically be accelerated to a significant fraction of c in the presumably less than a few seconds pictured above without being torn apart at the atomic level…and dense material experiences greater gravitational pull, so it would have a harder time reaching the moon…)

in order to impact, the vast majority of the debris would need to move on parabolic trajectories, and most of those will take multiple orbits in order to impact.

during those orbits, most debris will be pulled back onto earth, or in orbit around earth, since it’s gravitational pull is so much greater than the moons. add another fraction to the ones above ;)

we’re still missing a bunch of considerations, but I’m gonna stop here.

point is: as pictured above (apart from the impactor being impossibly dense) the danger to someone on the moon is mostly manageable and secondary to the danger of supplies running out.

probably radiation:

that kind of impact is gonna tear apart a lot of atoms and the energies involved would create high temperature plasma; basically a very big fusion bomb…

does “novyi svit” translate to “new world”?

eh…given the distance and the weird orbits it’s gonna take for the debris to actually hit…a few days probably?

couple of days for the bombardment to hit the surface, and then it’s a game of statistics how long it takes for a direct hit or secondary ejecta to hit your landing site/base.

probably a better idea to take all the fun pills all at once than to wait for that…

actually, you can probably simulate this rather well in universe sandbox! ;)

thank you very much!

also: ha! i’m doing the same thing! currently at book 2 ;)

you probably already know this, but for anyone else:

The Cosmere Series (of which the Mistborn Saga is a part of) does heavily feature Sci-Fi as well as post-apocalypse themes alongside (mostly) fantasy (Sci-Fi: the sunlit man, tress of the emerald sea; post-apocalypse: Stormlight Archives, Yumi And The Nightmare Painter), which made me think OP was talking about this series specifically.

In some of the other books it is mentioned that all of the powers originally came from a being called Adonalsium (basically God). what fuels all these manifestations of powers is called Investiture. Each Shard of Adonalsium manifests different Powers, Allomancy is just one of them.

so it’s a unique mix of classic fantasy, sci-fi, and post-apocalypse genres in a single gigantic saga, in which the sci-fi and post-apocalypse themes are intentionally kept vague and in the background.

highly recommend all of the other books!

they are great in their own right, and also give a LOT of extra bits and peaces of the overall lore!

what’s best about the series is, as you’ve already explained, the “hard-fantasy/sci-fi” approach to powers: all power requires some kind of source, everything comes from something.

best to do the Stormlight Archives after Mistborn (either order works), then the rest; order doesn’t really matter, although i recommend Tress of the emerald Sea and The Sunlit Man to be read last, because they contain a lot of sci-fi lore, which is best enjoyed last (imho)

also: Stormlight Archives Book 5 is coming relatively soon, i think it’s december?

austria is gonna burn before we give up falco, lol

i mean you weren’t actually off on the altered carbon, it just isn’t described in as much detail, but is effectively the same thing ;)

Thirteen, also by richard morgan, features similar themes as well!

NO works better, because it doesn’t cause a feeling of asphyxiation.

helium is expensive af, so it’s not an option. (it’s also basically non-renewable and we’re probably running out of helium in the medium-to-far future…so not a good idea)

hazbin hotel is an adult cartoon musical tv show about the daughter of satan trying to establish a hotel with the aim of rehabilitating the souls of sinners so they can enter heaven.

it’s an excellent show! a lot of fun with a bunch of famous actors doing the voices/songs ;)
