Through destruction we are remade; The Forge of Days understands this

Half a year now that I haven't recovered from blowing my nose too hard or wrong or whatever... :|

There is efficiency and then there is... "big zero, present"

Strongest toki pona enthousiast.

someone should make a jewish mysticism themed restaurant

they'd bring out kabbalah nuggies arranged in a sefirot, it'd be great

For the first time in my life, I am going to decline a job offer.  On the plus side I have multiple from which to choose, but it still feels odd to be on the "decline" side.

Mostly because I was not looking for jobs of my own volition I guess - in all previous cases, I didn't "have" to search for a job, so never had (or needed) more than one on the table at a time.

Terminal velocity 18km/h?

So living on titan feels allmost a bit like swimming... So what's really neat about this that I would expect those settlers to be absolutely ripped. We'd unironically be calling them titans in no time. Also weird to think about the economics of a world were carburant is plentiful, but the oxygen for combustion is precious and any oxygen and CO2 should be recycled. Dynasties built on hot air, my granddaddy breathed here being the equivalent of not under my roof, hehe titan is kind of humourous.

Fun fact: you could fly on Titan using just wings attached to your arms alongside muscle power. And a very good winter coat as the temperatures there are cryogenic, but details, details...

Could you do it in a full exosuit is the question. I would posit something as stupid as big wings on a motor that flap for you like that mechanical bird drone. Or just a quadcopter bike, similar to the bikes used by scuba divers. Or hydrogen balloons slightly too heavy to lift you and bounce around.

Oxygen and hydrogen wouldnt be a problem either; a large portion of the crust is water ice. Energy to melt and elecrolyze that water would be the bigger shortfall. No solar panels, wind generators might not collect much (tbh Ive heard nothing about the actual weather conditions on Titan. Does it ever experience storms? It must have weather patterns to have rivers of hydrocarbons flowing long enough to form drainage channels, because precipitation must be falling uphill and draining through them to create them. But how strong do the winds they get? How frequent?), very little electromagnetic field coming off Saturn (compared to the surface of Europa) so you cant just stick a metal pole up in the air. You'd have to run on nuclear isotope power. A hot isotope generator will be a problem if it starts melting the ground under it and sinking deeper and deeper until you run out of extension cord or it gets crushed.
