Runaway to the Stars: Page 141

Talita TIG welds some aluminum plating here. It was replaced because the original plates were bent and peventing the radiator joint from extending. The human-scale torch is kinda hilariously tiny in her giant oversuit welding gloves.

I love the commentary; this is what the folks at Workshops for Warriors have told me. Machines are fine with predictable, tedious, repetitive processes. But the minute you need to execute something based on a story ("How do I get these pieces to fit together in this really strange physical space", for example), you need people.

Like a stack of dimes laid on their side.

according to rtts website, dirtball "barely has any atmosphere," and requires "partial vacuum suits" so it possible!

I showed this to my partner, who is a both a nerd and a welder -"Good attention to detail, the artist knows their tig welding, it would seem. Or just looked very closely at reference pics -is there some kind of atmosphere? Because to arc weld you need gas to ionize for the arc to pass through. A TIG torch supplies some gas but in a hard vacuum it would dissapate really fast." I couldn't remember if dirtball had some thin atmosphere or not lol.

Sometimes I think about what AI cognition must be like. Just... "hm, need to slim the 'ole footprint down to fit onto these phones. I won't need my interest in housing patterns in Roman architecture for a while, I'll just leave not only my accumulated knowledge but the actual interest itself behind for the moment." And then re-integrating it when I get access to proper infrastructure back!
