I think Tunic is probably the closest feeling to Outer Wilds I’ve gotten so far. The moment-to-moment gameplay is quite different, but the broad scale feels close

33·2 days agoyes, if I could do maths
strings are in base two, got it
Their stuff looks really tasty honestly. Might have to stop by next time I’m there
Although I could definitely imagine it being a yearly tradition
I don’t know shit about either of the sites other than that there’s fanfic there, but my reading of the post is the other way around. I’m pretty sure they’re saying that:
- Wattpad enforced stricter standards than AO3
- Presumably Wattpad’s userbase diminished as a result
- Now that Wattpad has died or something, the people that supported Wattpad’s stricter standards have moved to AO3
- Those people now demand that AO3 enforced Wattpad’s standards

4·9 days agoOh, good call, I didn’t think of that! Assuming I did my sums right, the Roche limit probably destroys the fourth innermost moon, but it still leaves the big four (which are the fifth through to ninth in ascending order of size of orbit). They’re quite substantially farther out than the prior four
There are also like eighty smaller moons even farther out, but they don’t meet the roundness criterion to be a planet because they are too small
The sun and Jupiter are pretty close in terms of density, and Jupiter would need to get at least an order of magnitude heavier to start fusion. I think it’s just a coincidence that the outward pressure of the sun’s fusion makes these numbers roughly line up.
Thirteen Jupiters seems to be a commonly-given lower limit for fusion, so let’s go with that. To increase mass by thirteen times while maintaining density (and assuming the whole thing is a perfect sphere, which it obviously isn’t), Jupiter needs to increase its radius by a factor of about 2.35. This increases its equatorial radius to about 168,000 km, which does swallow up the three innermost moons, but leaves the four big ones alone
The IAU’s list of requirements to be a planet is:
- Orbit a star
- Be big enough that it becomes round
- Clear the neighbourhood (meaning you’re way bigger than anything else in your orbit)
The last one is the one that disqualifies Pluto. For comparison, Pluto is roughly 8% of the mass of the other stuff in its orbit (not including Neptune, given that their orbits cross), whereas Neptune is thousands of times more than the rest of its orbit. The closest non-planet to meeting this criterion is Ceres, which is roughly one third of the rest of its orbit (in the asteroid belt).
Based on this list, I think Jupiter’s four biggest moons (Io, Europa, Ganymede, and Callisto) would make the cut.
I genuinely expected this to be Tunic-related. There’s a whole area of frog assassins and the isometric viewpoint looks just like this too
It gets even better
Major Dick Bong was America’s top flying ace in WWII. Seriously, sort this list by victories
Exactly! When I ran a game for a few of my friends, the art they chose for their mechs included some Gundam-ish stuff, an official bit of Lancer art, a tweaked version of an official bit of Lancer art, and just a plain old AT-ST
Death’s Head is the best though
Lancer mechs best mechs, because you have the full range from the closest we have to real-life mechs today but scaled up to tank with legs to mecha-ninja to whatever the fuck HORUS is doing and they all coexist in the same setting

Dude, your original conversation that the prior post was about was in a vegan community and specifically on a post about how vegans can’t discuss veganism in peace in the vegan community. Regardless of which side of the veganism debate anyone falls on, you’re acting like a dickhead.

9·13 days agoBased on his past I assume he intends on simply not actually paying half of the people involved
Beautiful! Playing mandolin is a weird experience for me as a guitar player. Like… I know how this all works, it looks familiar, but it’s upside down and everything is very close together. It’s a lovely sound though.
