triple cheeseburger

For #toughtober Day 8 (Plasma) I made an animation illustrating how a Q-drive works. Annotated diagram to come later. Once again entirely nondestructive #scifi #space #art thanks to #blender3d #geometrynodes

thank you...

Digital illustration showing various doodles of a guy with pale skin, ginger hair, and yellow eyes. In one of the doodles he's shown eating a sandwich. Next to the sandwich is some text reading: "Sandwich featuring GMO-derived bread, cheese derived from cultured milk, and cultured GMO ham." In the background is a coloured heightmap of the western region of Hellas Planitia, with the lowest sections coloured blue to represent water. Surrounding the water is a haze of green, pressumably representing flora coverage.

Cel-shaded 3D render depicting some spaceship hardware. Two cylindrical propellant tanks are secured on trusses and have pipes leading into a pair of large flat sections with many small electric engines fitted to them.

Same as the 1st image, just viewed from a different angle.

Seconding this post. Please keep calling and mailing. ESPECIALLY if you're in Germany.

If Germany flips to opposed, with how the current shakeup is looking, chatcontrol is dead in the water once again.

3D renders depicting a cardboard cutout of a 2D illustration of a girl with brown skin, neck-length pink hair, pink eyes, a yellow t-shirt, and black pants. The cardboard cutout is stood on a white plane with a simple dark grey background.

i made a cardboard cutout of one of my characters to use as a size reference in blender scenes

i couldn't live on a venus balloon habitat i'd be stressing out all the time over the idea of something going wrong and the whole thing and all of its occupants plummeting into the clouds below

Sharing this again because despite all of the horrors, you are not alone. MILLIONS of people around the country are standing up and saying NO, and you can join them.

i like the idea of a "tachyon drive" not as an FTL drive but instead as a handwaved regular engine just with an exhaust velocity greater than c

spinning around slowly

idk what happened to the audio that was bsky's fault 😭

wormhole

Actively talk about how insane this is let people who are not online know how much this will impact them and how fucking creepy is. Stuff like this pass easily due to apathy and distractions like what’s going on in global politics. Once shit like this is in no government will chose to remove it

Cam has a triangular cross section and pointed profile with twelve turrets and six large retractable radiator flaps. Original artwork not permitted for use as AI training data or input.

Lisse has a very dark, rounded conical hull, oversized radiators protected by movable plates, and a retractable suite of turrets and scanning equipment. Original artwork not permitted for use as AI training data or input.

Second image of Lisse showing major interior components such as her bio-core, internal exhaust bell, and large focusing mirrors for lasers and telecopes. Original artwork not permitted for use as AI training data or input.

Early concept art for some of the girls from my WIP sci fi story. Cam is an interceptor/destroyer specialized in fast attacks and Lisse is a long range sniper and surveillance platform.

Science is dominated by male native-English-speakers with elevated affluence. It's a demographic that makes up less than 3% of the total global population. If someone wants to keep politics out of science, they are comfortable enforcing the status quo that benefits them (a small privileged group).

img that says “got a really crazy art coming up in the next 7-8 years. Stay tuned.”

Here's your reminder that Meta platforms are responsible for around 85% of CSAM distributed on the internet - not porn sites, not sites that allow NSFW content, the stringently-SFW Meta platforms.

ftr this isn't the first time bluesky has done stupid as fuck shit. I was here in the trenches in 2023 watching them pull dumb moves and get yelled down by everyone to back down, successfully. the people running this place are not on your side but they are hilariously easy to bully. go hard.

Seeing some nuclear fusion hype on YouTube again so here's your occasional reminder that nuclear fusion will never be more practical for generating electricity than nuclear fission and is really only of interest for space propulsion systems

Three-panel digital illustration depicting a person laying down on the surface of a neutron star. In the first panel on the left we see them from above, hands rested on their stomach, looking up in awe. Their body is lit from beneath by the neutron star's glowing surface. In the middle panel we see a close-up of their hand, which is now tentatively touching the surface. Small lumps and dents are visible in the otherwise stark white ground. In the third panel on the right we see what the space above looks like, with numerous stars tinted blue and with a lot of motion blur applied to them.

resting on a neutron star... the gravity pulls down like a weighted blanket, the surface is warm and the little millimetre-scale deviations are fun to run your fingers across, the view above is a hypnotising cascade of blueshifted starlight rushing overhead

*wakes up on the surface of a neutron star*
Aw dammit, not again!

🫂 (i don't really know what to say exactly i just hope that you're okay and that things can improve for you. i know we don't interact much but i still appreciate you and wish nothing but the best for you)

also i think it's kinda funny seeing the people in the comments of these videos praising the "90s cgi" when these images actually come from the 2000s instead

i wonder what the folks working on Orion's Arm think of all the youtube DnB mixes that use their art as background images without giving any kind of credit

I'm completely broke, I've been unable to meet my needs since the month began.

I'd like a little food, but medications come first

$60 will get me my medication, and leave me with some grocery money, my anti-consultant medication is $40 after tax w/ current GoodRX coupon

any assistance helps 💙

Halo fans get madder than any other fandom when you say something in their media is unrealistic and it's crazy because Halo isn't even remotely realistic

i think it's a bit of a shame that there isn't at least one or two others besides protons and neutrons that are stable... would be cool and fun i think. i wonder if there's a chance any might do what neutrons do where on their own they decay but when paired up with another particle they're stable

imagine living in the universe where all of the hundreds of other types of baryons and mesons are stable and they make their own atoms and elements and people have like >200 different periodic tables to keep track of

Efil is a rly pretty starting planet

Digital art painting of a yellow steam locomotive on an alien planet with a slimegirl crew. The locomotive is short, with twelve red wheels, a yellow saddle tank, cab, and coal hopper, front and rear platforms, two funnels, and highly detailed valve gear, brake compressor, dynamo, frames, and piping. The slimegirls are the curvy, apparently busty orange Conductor, who is standing on the front platform with their hand on a handrail. They wear a dark blue vest with hi-vis yellow stripes, and a glob of purplish hair-goo bangs drip from their red and black flannel headscarf. The other slimegirl is the thin blue Engineer, who is standing on the ground behind the engine, about to climb up to the front platform with the engineer. They wear a blue and white striped shirt and headcarf, and has a big blobby messy dark purple pony tail, and in addition baggy pants and a dark blue vest with hi-vis yellow stripe. The background is a somewhat alien landscape with brown rocky cliffs, blue-green clovers, wildflowers, and weirdly shaped trees, but with a normal partly cloudy blue sky.

Narrow gauge "Foresight" class S20-332 Advanced Steam Tank Engine no.11513₆ of the South Lymer Railway (the SLYM) on the planet Gymnome, circa 2335 AD.
