  • Halo’s Slipspace has always been my favorite. It’s another dimension where instead of being able to move in four directions, things can move in eleven. This results in travel being faster there than in normal space.

    The fun part is that the UNSC and the main antagonists- the Covenant- use the exact same method of FTL travel. The Covenant are just dramatically better at it, to the point of UNSC ships that attempt to run away from the Covenant via slipspace sometimes having the Covenant fleet they were fleeing already there and waiting on them.




  • I guess?

    PTO can usually just be used anytime as long as you give notice and get it approved. That doesn’t match with the American definition of ‘holidays’ since those are specific calendar dates, but I think British English uses the term interchangeably with vacation?

    It’s not always an acronym- a lot of people will just say ‘vacation time.’

    But yeah it’s basically so that you have one pool for vacation time and sick time that’s paid. A lot of places expect you to take unpaid leave if you’re sick- or just fuckin work anyways- because unchecked capitalism.
