  • Its not great, but not nearly as bad as Challenger SRB O-rings.

    I was speaking more from the managerial and not the engineering point of view, when I made that comment about the vibes. How management politics underplayed problems until a disaster happened

    My point still stands though. If the leak grows large during the trip, and all the helium escapes, then they can’t maneuver the craft, which means they can’t get at the right angle to reenter the atmosphere without burning up.

    And if the shuttle tiles situation tells us anything, they don’t take everything with them up into space, to do on-site emergency repairs.

    Even if they brought extra helium with them, if the leak is widened (launch vibrations, etc.) to a point where the helium escapes too quickly now, before the whole reentry sequence completes, then they’re stuck.

    Just feels like driving a car across the Mojave Desert, with a known tire leak, and hoping the leak doesn’t get any worse. Feels like a ‘roll of the dice’ moment.

  • Can you at least make the text smaller? That way people aren’t as bothered by it, but you still have your licence?

    I already did actually, a couple of weeks ago.

    I’m using the Lemmy web editor. The web client doesn’t let you change font sizes, but it does let you mark font as subscript or superscript, which is a smaller font size, so I did that.

    My understanding is some mobile clients have problem with the subscript/superscript formatting, and the cause of that is on their end, not supporting the format text yet.

    If you don’t see my license declaration in a smaller font, direct the devs of your client to look at this page, which is the formatting instructions from Lemmy, and specifically the subscript and superscript formatting.

  • It must be the AI accounts that take offence with the licence.

    That would be my guess.

    There’s a lot of history in the last three-ish weeks in multiple of my posts with me using the license, including a standalone topic, where people/““people”” are ripping into me every way they can for using it, so I’m assuming it’s just more of that.

    The same cycle tends to reoccur approximately every day to every other day. Usually someone asking an innocent question about it, and then somebody else replies to them, ripping into me, and then it explodes from there, derailing the OP.

    I hate that the Lemmy admins are not taking care of the problem (if you admins are, and I’m just not just seeing it, then you have my apologies, and my thanks), but I’m also kind of numb to it at this point.

    Getting to the topic of the OP…

    Gamers Nexus is very consumer advocacy oriented, so I hate to think people are downvoting them for being them.

    In fact, if you’re looking to build a PC, and want good advice on your rights when it comes with warranty repair for products you may have purchased, I would definitely suggest watching the video that’s linked In this topic (start @26:00 if you are in a hurry).
