@nyrath@iamgerardthomas There's definitely a really big hump to get over with Blender. Compared to a lot of other design programmes, it seems very unintuitive at first. Once that bridge is crossed though, the basics come pretty fast.
Well ... this depends. I think the original design is okay.
See, it is labelled an "interstellar" ship, which implies cruise duration on the order of decades. As such, long term GCR shielding is a must, and this requires MUCH thicker shielding than the wimpy neutrons from a mere fission reactor (or even the fast neutrons of a fusion reaction).
The original design appears to have propellant tanks surrounding a central core (which may include the crew compartment?).
I'm having a very expensive weekend. Had to replace my iPad Pro. Lovely to have a new one on the way, but painful to have a £1300 expense I wasn't expecting.
Would be a lovely time to buy a print or digital book!
Explanation from Substack as to why they allow Nazis, and others with extremist views on their platform. All very nicely written, perfectly reasonable…
But no, just fuck off. De-monetize the fuckers, de-platform them. Don't allow or encourage them.
@thisnorthernboy Conflating moderation and censorship once again, as well as willfully ignoring what should now be obvious that discriminatory rhetoric feeds from engagement while never suffering from it. Of course they will never be at the bad end of it, so why not profiting?
