The Ghost with the Most is back.

tbh not sure if I want /mlp/ to be red, probably might end in excessive shitposting and spam. /trash/ might just do the job, so yeah

I think /trash/ has a mascot now, but I don't remember much.

@Sovetski

There's already a risk that someone might notice me browsing 4chan when they pass my room or open the door to tell me something, so last thing I need is there to be a confirmed chance I'll be scanning past horsecock if this happens. /trash/'ll do the job since it isn't one of the regular boards I visit.

And last I checked /trash/'s mascot (or waifu at least) was decided to be Rarity by will of trips.

inb4 the board turns red and we get all those generals back too

though /trash/ is pretty comfy, glad Hiroshima added all these new boards

@Sovetski

Well, if /trash/ is going to basically be the red-board folk want /mlp/ to be then I'm going to say that Hiro is probably going to hold back longer with /trash/ and the new boards made.

And I need to check back in on /trash/ later tonight. Last I poked my head in they were already trying to build a 4cc team and brand.

this has been posted at least a million times on /mlp/, but I'm still pretty hype every time I see it tbh fam

are we returning to the golden age?

@Sovetski

Time will tell.

The Night of the Ghost Of Jihadi John

Update: the Bataclan theater went FUBAR and the AFP is quoting Parisian police as saying a hundred are now dead.

The Night of the Ghost Of Jihadi John

Supposedly.

This evening gunmen went out across central Paris, killing roughly fifteen individuals and taking 60-100 hostages at the theater. A suicide attacker attacked the Stade de France where France and Germany were playing a game of dive-grass and killed three.

As of currently the hostage situation at the theater is over and two gunmen were killed in the raid, most hostages were rescued. But Paris is on lock down.

OH MY FUCKING GOD, HE'S BACK!!! 4CHAN, BRONYS, AND TROLLS EVERYWHERE REJOICE!!!

Music choices at work

Oh how I wish I could put this on.

But we don't even do music at work.

Sci fi science: "How'd that really work?" Thread

I agree with all your points, honestly. The biggest issue really is resource acquisition, definitely.

Y'know, now I'm wondering how exactly you'd defend such an operation, if required. After-all, such a massive structure would be an extremely high value target, both for capturing and defending.

Would you fortify the ringworld itself, or would you use dedicated defensive craft? Probably both, or one or the other, depending on what you're defending against, your tech level, and all sorts of other things.

@LHG100

Well given this is space any attacking force could "attack" such an installation from far outside the defender's field of view. Range becomes a non-issue and you could hurtle stuff at such a structure from the next star-system even, the only factor that would need to be considered is predicting where the target will be when the missile reaches it so you can land a direct hit, running enough calculations and mapping a route through the stars and other gravity sources I'd hazard that should someone know all the required variables you could maybe get away with launching something at such a station from the other-side of the galaxy.

This of course will take a significant amount of time and the route will become so complex with so many stars, blackholes, and other objects getting into the way that the chances of failure ramps up exponentially. But the basic point stands: someone could fly something far outside where they could be seen.

So the best defense might be simply early warning so that defensive installations/space craft could intercept and destroy/re-route/capture a threatening object. But that's considering the attacker hasn't developed teleportation technology and could just zap themselves inside the super-structure and attack it from within. Things can rapidly become incredibly asymmetrical.

I guess this is a thing now, huh?
