Please remember that it shows your name by your score, so if you put your real name in and give your position someone could theoretically find your name etc.

I know lots of people don't want their screen name linked to their real one.

You can hear to some level, the boats and actions in the vicinity of the cable. So it might provide evidence in case of a break.

It also lets you know if the cable is moving round on the seabed etc, this is useful as it can cause wear.

I seem to remember it being used to check the health of power cables too (they have fibre cables embedded within them)

I watched a great video on it and it's shocking.... But he really did cut the crime rates.

It's gone from high chance of being murdered to medium chance of being arrested without trial, most consider that an improvement.... For now.

Probably going to go full power hungry dictator at some point though, they almost all do ☹️

Drop a question in your instances meta community

...Is the description anything to do with the image?

Some instances restrict image uploads because of people uploading..... Unsavoury images.

You should be able to link to an external image site.

My parents had their current house built - an awesome oak framed building. I got the frame design from the architects and turned it into a 3D printed jigsaw.

Each beam had a bit on the end that plugged into the relevant socket (with a little bku-tacto help in some cases)

I had done no 3d modeling previous to this, and practically none after. Took me months, awesome though!

I tend to spend a weekend cooking and freezing loads, then not really cooking for weeks.

So it's a massive targeted shop every few weeks to do that, then mostly small trips (often on foot/bike) to the local shops to get milk and any odd things I run out of, or if I feel like mixing dinner up with something else.

Yeh, I see the edits

You seem to have made 3 posts?

Doesn't that just mean that lower orbits can be used? Less air resistance?

CS2 still has some glaring holes. It doesn't have functional bus lanes for example.

I have rage quit over some stupid bug/design decision every time I have tried to play it.

Also, still no asset mods... WTF

Their size makes them very hard to turn too, so you can see them a while off, but that doesn't help if it takes Kms to stop.

It also only helps if there is someone actually looking out of the window....

Oil tanker was likely carrying aviation fuel for the US military (as per the BBC).

Let the conspiracy theories begin! (Does jet fuel melt ships!?!)

This happened not far off the coast. Looks like the oil tanker was at anchor waiting, while the cargo ship ploughed into it.

Oil tankers are not exactly the most nimble of ships, even if it tried to get out of the way.

I might just be bad at it, but all my games ended up being either a boring cake walk, or ridiculously difficult.

Never really got into it.

Reus2 has been most of my deck commuting playtime if I'm honest. Great little game with endless replayability.

Then you are using it for music and pay the full rate.

Your API definition there is spot on.
