I can stare at one of a building’s security cameras from across the street like a creepy ghost child, and then the entire camera system stares at the people inside and sets them on fire, one by one. It’s like something out of a horror movie
When I say “fake fireplace”, I mean something like those structures fueled by fossil methane that produce flame and heat but obviously don’t burn actual wood
Dunno if my save is just borked and I’ll have to revert or what, but I can’t seem to find Barbacoa Wraps (and possibly other damage-reduction foods) in my inventory immediately after crafting it. If it helps, I’m currently on Sarah Morgan’s personal quest. I was a little further along, but I reverted to a prior save when...
Behold, my new ship, built completely from scratch, designed to rival arguably the best default ship in the game (you could get the latter as a quest reward), but almost entirely using Nova Galactic parts. …Granted, it’s not nearly done yet, because it needs a buttload more engines, more weapons, and everything needs to be...
Am I supposed to be getting a companion’s initial commitment conversation almost immediately after completing their personal quest and romancing them?...
Am I better off carrying one melee weapon or investing in stagger resistance perks to fight off melee attackers? As it stands, I often have to either shoot melee attackers before they reach me or beat them back with a Va’Ruun Painblade because they probably won’t give me enough time to reload my shotgun.
When a certain character in the game dies because they’re still loaded into the Net at the moment when someone disconnects the jack, it kinda reminds me of IRL USB devices, where failing to dismount/eject them on the computer before physically removing them can cause problems, especially for the USB device. It almost feels...
I’m tempted to start making oddly specific small statues made of random materials, maybe with limbs pointing to the previous statue in a sequence. Is there a better method?
So, on a thread on the bug on “the website that shall not be named”, someone found some quest IDs that, through console commands, could (at least temporarily) somewhat stop the effects of the bug....
Just as an example, there were evidently reports during the 2007 Glasgow airport attack that someone attempting to subdue the assailant and assist police kicked said attacker in the testicles… but somehow managed to do so hard enough to injure one of their own foot tendons.
So, let’s say there’s a species of bacteria that is known to dwell in Greek yogurt. How long would it take before that species of yogurt-dweller only has modern descendants different enough to qualify as one or more new species?
Quickhacking is weird when you think about it.

Do we have any theories as to why complex life eventually started requiring various metal elements as micronutrients?
For example, why did zinc, of all things, start getting utilized by brain and prostate tissue in humans?
If nuclear fusion were to become useful for residential heating, could the plasma be useful for fake fireplaces?

[Mild spoilers for ship parts that exist] I still have the starting ship, but not a lot of the original parts are left

Weird bug: Barbacoa Wraps (food item) not showing up in inventory when crafted
Dunno if my save is just borked and I’ll have to revert or what, but I can’t seem to find Barbacoa Wraps (and possibly other damage-reduction foods) in my inventory immediately after crafting it.

My Netrunner/overdrive build trying to get around “no killing” rules in certain gigs: (i.imgur.com)
Despite my attempts to be stealthy, I tend to be spotted at some point anyway
[Potential spoilers for Nova Galactic ship components] How’s this ship look? (i.imgur.com)

Do we know of a means by which artificial nuclear fusion could be used to mimic stellar carbon-12 production?
Is PLA a good material for 3D printing a tool intended to remove pack ice from a driveway?
[Potential Spoilers] Question regarding romance mechanics…
Am I supposed to be getting a companion’s initial commitment conversation almost immediately after completing their personal quest and romancing them?...
Advice wanted regarding melee enemies when you tend to wield guns…
Am I better off carrying one melee weapon or investing in stagger resistance perks to fight off melee attackers? As it stands, I often have to either shoot melee attackers before they reach me or beat them back with a Va’Ruun Painblade because they probably won’t give me enough time to reload my shotgun.
What somewhat-“friendly” bacteria species are common in Greek yogurt, and would their gut presence likely increase consumption of other dairy?
A netrunner dying by improperly jacking out seems weirdly realistic
When a certain character in the game dies because they’re still loaded into the Net at the moment when someone disconnects the jack, it kinda reminds me of IRL USB devices, where failing to dismount/eject them on the computer before physically removing them can cause problems, especially for the USB device.

How would you go about determining where you’ve already been in 1.20 caves?
I’m tempted to start making oddly specific small statues made of random materials, maybe with limbs pointing to the previous statue in a sequence. Is there a better method?
Why do carnivorous/predatory animals seem to sleep more than extremely intelligent animals?
For example, why do things like domestic cats and dogs seem to nap and sleep for longer than humans or elephants?
[Spoilers for a quest nane] Where should I stop in the main quest before finishing the entirety of the side content?
All I know is, I don’t want to get anywhere near “high price to pay” until I’m done with the side content completely.
Remember a month ago, when I posted about a bug causing hostile ships to turn up empty? More info has surfaced
So, on a thread on the bug on “the website that shall not be named”, someone found some quest IDs that, through console commands, could (at least temporarily) somewhat stop the effects of the bug....
Do some animal species relocate their populations over the course of centuries or millenia, to the point of self-extirpation in their original territory?
Apparently some humans are born with two spleens. What evolutionary pressures likely created the trait, and what future pressures could drive second spleens to become more common?
Does this description imply that life-support gel is an engineered breathable liquid? (lemmy.world)
How do some animals (or at least humans) manage to generate more force than their own muscles are rated to handle?
Just as an example, there were evidently reports during the 2007 Glasgow airport attack that someone attempting to subdue the assailant and assist police kicked said attacker in the testicles… but somehow managed to do so hard enough to injure one of their own foot tendons.
Depending on the setting and its origins, perhaps a scholarly Bard would work well. (lemmy.world)
Did our understanding of the function of human eosinophil cells change substantially in recent years, and if so, why?
Do we have enough evidence of Neanderthal leatherworking to replicate the techniques for ourselves?
Do we have any estimates as to how long it takes for a species of bacteria to go technically extinct entirely via genetic drift?
So, let’s say there’s a species of bacteria that is known to dwell in Greek yogurt. How long would it take before that species of yogurt-dweller only has modern descendants different enough to qualify as one or more new species?
