I imagine it will get recycled; and the specifics are probably pretty interesting[1] (as would be the specifics for creating the replacement and arranging timely supplies of nice and fresh steel of appropriate spec for it.)

[1] Like imagine what's involved in recycling a scrapped battleship? Must be pretty cool.

Most shipbreaking is done by starving people in horrible, deadly conditions :sun:

Yeah that was pretty wild to discover that the best method for cutting apart that ship was a Giant loving Chain that can somehow operate as a Giant loving Saw.

This begs the question "Why do starships in 40K not also have chainswords, perhaps on those big dumb tumblehome bows they are so insistent on using???"

(I blame the Adeptus unwillingness to innovate)

I wanna get my scuba cert knocked out at some point for basic rear end rec diving, but anything beyond that, no thank you. And honestly I don't even know if I'll be able to thanks to sinus issues.

I think the only exception I have to nothing beyond basic rec diving is that I'd like to go on one of those dive tours of the sunken Imperial German fleet at Scapa Flow at some point.

I'd still recommend the Advanced class for skills development and nitrox for comfort and extended bottom time, once you're comfortable with the basics. They're easy to do and I definitely found that I was hooked and eager for more after my first dive.

A rescue cert is also a great idea if you end up diving a lot. It's physically grueling because it's a lot of swimming and dragging people through the water and up onto a beach, but not _difficult_ per se. And first aid training is never a bad idea.

I choose to believe that this statement was given via telephone, and the official actually said “hashtag Israel”.

I laughed inappropriately hard at this. I feel like we've been close to that world ever since "Twitter diplomacy" became a thing.

It hasn't been strictly true that marijuana use fucks over people wanting to get security clearances for quite a while. The process is still too inconsistent for comfort, but it's generally sufficient to be truthful on your application and discontinue use.

Holding space for all the folks that will go belly up to CISA for a job that requires a clearance the day the feds do something about the "discontinue use" part
