Going for a smaller scale build rn because I'm to rusty to tackle something larger.
is no longer in the way. Both of these things maximize the coverage a single turret can provide. Because of the weird fucked-up linkages, the magazine is located on the gun (the white bits). After the magazine is expended, the turret has to rotate back into position to reload a la the mk26.
Getting back on the Lego horse, starting with a wierd f'd up six degree of freedom turret for my next ship, Marengo. Anyways, the idea here is that the extra degree of freedom eliminates gimbal lock and the offset mounting gives the turret line of sight to rearward targets since the radiator...
Got a job Wednesday. Graduated Thursday. Spent all of yesterday getting drunk in a hammock and listening to music. Got a nice caprese from a car-free streets festival. I'm doing pretty good right now.

Will be transitioning to a scaly for main sona here soon, so agreed on kobolds and raptors.
Wonderful little dragon species swap piece from @firestoem.bsky.social ! I'm planning on moving towards a reptilian sona in the future, good to get a taste of the scaly future.
Post a perfect album from the 90s that isn't Nirvana, Pearl Jam, Soundgarden, or Alice in Chains No skips, definitionally perfect
My favorite gender of airplane is shitty propeller based missile truck that would get mulched in five seconds by the presence of competent AA and cost less to build than its payload. Anyways, beloved.
Horse drawing night at a friend's place. Here's my horses.
Skwiggview: Speed Racer The Wachowski's described this as car-fu and uh yeah, it rules! I love the movies, I love my silly, I love my cars, I love my art, I love my zany bullshit, I love my peem. Deserves the re-appreciation it's been getting 100 fold.
Skwiggview: Chaos: Making a New Science Eh, it's fine. Overall, helps illustrate how properly trying to deal with non-linearity helped shake up scientific thinking and was enabled by computer-based visualizations but doesn't really converge to a satisfying thesis. Less than sum of its parts. 5/10
Skwiggview: Stop Making Sense Music is surely the closest thing we have to a channel to the divine, to have been on that stage was a transcendent experience. Behold, the power of JAM. 9/10, banger.
Skwiggview: The Vast of Night Really really solid micro-budget thriller. Put's every dollar to great use with intelligent direction and fantastic leads. A masterclass in show don't tell and creating an atmosphere. Good for general audiences and sci-fi fans alike. 8/10
Skwiggview: Children of Time It's fine, borders on good. The human plot is fairly stock and uninteresting. The spiders on the other hand have great alt-history, alt tech tree shenanigans, and weird gender politics that are like candy to my brain. It's fine on on it's own but there's another thing..
Skwiggview: Critical Mass Man, it sucks when you're really digging something and then sour on it big time near the end. Overstuffed and undercooked, it reads more like a pitch deck for space VCs than a story. As literature, the characters and dialogue have gotten worse and more repetitive.
Skwiggview: Delta-V This is a comfort food book. Not particularly challenging and workmanlike in its prose, plots, and characters. Isn't high art but entertained me enough to stick with it. I'm mainly here for the asteroid mining tech porn though and in that regard, it's licentious. 6.5/10
Tight, love me some noodles, hit me with that TF juice.
