    Great, I don't remember enough of this stuff to figure it out fast, and for some reason it's invaded both of my thinking molecules.

    The TL:DR is, there are two good things here but some issues too, notably about time required to get these to doctors to help us. Probably a minimum of a year, but we have a lot of activity going on by the pharma research industry. -- Let's put this in perspective. The normal duration of a...

    Worst Star Citizen day in some time...

    Things haven't been smooth for me, not by a longshot. But what I experienced only affected a handful of players compared to the wider community. But the whole experience was handled poorly by CIG. I had to wait a week before there was a response to a concierge request for help. As for 3.9...

    Don't let this happen to you, a PSA.

    Sigh. Sucks to be me... I keep my favorite mugs in my office, that's how my family gets ahold of them when I'm traveling. But I work from home if I'm not traveling... and airplane cups aren't made of anything I want to think about drinking coffee out of.

    At least you're allowed to have a mug like that. My family keeps washing mine when I'm away, and breaking them...so I started using just store bought ceramic mugs. It's not the same, but I don't care when they drop one. My oldest son is the only one in the family that understands, he's Navy.

    This is why it's important to self isolate if you can. Just precautionary, but if it helps to slow down the infection rate it slows down how fast hospitals will fill up with critical care cases. Some good news but it's just regarding test kits...

    Excellent advice @NaffNaffBobFace. That fixed a entire stream of issues I faced early in this patch, including an issue I had opening doors in two of my ships. It might have been more than two, I just gave up and deleted the user folder. It worked.

    Get Amazon Prime. You get 10 digital books "on lone" you can download to your computer, tablet or cell phone. When you finish one, you can replace it. Barns and Noble are doing something similar, but I haven't used them for a few years now. They never seem to have the books I want.

    lol, sorry. BTW, chole might have been a typo, but it's a compound verb to me. It meant choke and gargle at the same time. Comes from drinking into that layer of skunge at the bottom of a bottle of Blue while trying to talk ... we made up a few nouns and verbs playing caps I mean in college.

    Make beer from toilet water. That's largely why they made beer in the first place, except they were getting the toilet water from the town well. The fermentation process removes impurities like body parts, and shit.

    Miralax my friend, or one of the generic ones made with a similar formula. It makes the stubborn bits sticky, but pliable. Uh... it also has the capacity of removing any remaining flavor from water. I used juices to fix that issue, but it's amazing how much flavor it can remove from...

    Get ready for the most rewarding experience of your life! Other than a few rough spots during puberty (during which you and mom will lose about 75 IQ points you gain back after that's over) the only really rough spots are toilet training, then teaching them to go directly to the bathroom...

    Possible exploit\weapons research suggestion

    If a MOLE can turn a rock into plasma, then why can't it turn a ship made of the same material that was in the rock into plasma? Got shields? Sure, but they have limits and can be overcome if you have enough energy. So I have no problem with a MOLE, with 3 of the most powerful lasers in the...

    If you don't have a cable, it's called a USB Type B cable, and you can get them at almost any place you get computer parts.
