That’s correct. IM-1 in Feb 2024 and IM-2 in Mar 2025 both ended with tipped-over landers.

Headline is misleading. The Nokia hardware worked fine; it’s the host vehicle from Intuitive Machines that tipped over and ran out of power.

Who are the remaining 55% still buying swasticars?

Startup time. RAM consumption. Privacy.

It’s usually because of cheap electrolytic capacitors. Letting a $10+ item die because they were too cheap to pay $0.25 instead of $0.15 for a properly rated component.

At long last, we have created the Torment Nexus from classic sci-fi novel Don’t Create The Torment Nexus.

That’s weird, the computer says everyone was born January 1, 1900.

All I see is “Crush your enemies, see them driven before you”.

Factorio, because the factory must grow.

Video tutorial covering roundabouts and also defensive techniques for fighter aircraft.

All three of the cancers have brain worms.

Instead, THE_PACK takes that aesthetic, cranks it up to 12, and adds some silly text. Everyone is role-playing as a skeleton that’s obsessed with motorcycles (hogs). You have to TALK IN ALL CAPS to be heard over the engine noise. And everyone’s friendly and welcoming in a way that edgelords aren’t.

A few great examples from the last year or so:

• Exhibit A
• Exhibit B
• Exhibit C

IMMA LET YOU FINISH, BUT THIS MEME ABOUT CRANKING HOGS WOULD BE WAY BETTER IF IT HAD FLAMING SKELETONS IN IT.

Yeah, Tactical Breach Wizards has been in development since at least 2020. I was in the closed beta in 2022 and it was pretty great. They’ve finally announced the release date of August 22, and I’m excited.

IS IT THE KIND OF CIRCUS WITH A MOTORCYCLE THAT’S ON FIRE, JUMPING OVER A ROW OF MONSTER TRUCKS, WHICH ARE ALSO ON FIRE?

'CUZ THAT’S PRETTY SWEET, BUT ALSO BORING TO WATCH AFTER YOU’VE DONE IT TEN OR TWENTY TIMES FOR REAL.

Can anyone prove it’s NOT an extra-long cow?
