      The funny thing is that they learnt absolutely nothing from the fate of the Vasa. In fact they doubled down on their strategy on more cannons = more better, and build Store Kronan, which had 126 cannons (more than twice as many as Vasa), and which ended up capsizing from its own weight and sinking, just from attempting to turn too quickly.

              Nah, tbh I was just making a meme because I remember folks used to joke about struts. I haven’t played in a long time. I remember thinking about all that a bit. If you’re having fun, you’re playing right. 💜

              I have been playing Satisfactory lately. I’ve tried making some layouts intentionally bad just to try new stuff and see how it works.
