    It's my Birthday!!

    Happy Birthday! I have a system for figuring out my age. I'm 29. I do have a lot more experience being 29 than average, but experience isn't a bad thing. I have more experience at being 29 than anyone else on the planet, so this year I decided to have my 30th birthday. In June. edit: It...

    Some Real Life Stuff

    I'm not sure a month would be long enough. Not even a year. But I also think that customers with an issue are not really at fault. It's really the fault of the way that companies have approached the call center. When someone calls with a complaint, it's always the last option in a long...

    Now that 3.5 is live and I can get used to the new flight model this weekend...

    Yes well... I'm sorry, I forgot I said I'd leave it alone in the next post. Just remember, there are things you can learn from a Thrustmaster. Then in the third post, I remembered and remembered also that I had a few friends that can out drink me and have a lot of experience with all kinds of...

    What do you do for a living?

    That's the only hobby left that I haven't tried to automate with a computer... and that's coming. But the ability to shape some wood into whatever I want has been amazingly satisfying, not to mention useful. One of my next project though is an automagic 8' X 4' CNC machine for wood. You...

    Now that 3.5 is live and I can get used to the new flight model this weekend...

    Yeah well, I have to be careful with what battles I pick. A few officers and NCOs in several of the units stationed on the same base are family friends. Every one of them can drink me under the table. And some of them are also good with stuff that looks amazingly like a broad sword, but...

    Why would anyone want to live in Australia?

    Australia is an amazing place for North Americans. Just look at those specimens of wildlife. If one of those grabbed me, I'd never want it to let go. btw I've been there twice. Loved it, even if all I saw was the east and northern coast.

    Now that 3.5 is live and I can get used to the new flight model this weekend...

    It didn't need any help from me, that's for sure. But @Blind Owl, you might be able to find a bottle of some kind of lubricant to help with any friction you might encounter during the initial performance of the Thrustmaster.

    Star Citizen nameable ships?

    It's kind of hard to think of 32 character words, but heez I was going to call mine Pneumonoultramicroscopicsilicov because it reminds me of Slavic names. The I thought, Naw... I can't even remember that and used a 5 letter Anglo Saxon name that means Hunter. You don't have to name a ship...

    I'm going to leave the obvious joke alone. I think @August shared the configuration for a dual setup. It might help work it out for other setup's too. https://testsquadron.com/threads/thrustmaster-t-16000m-dual-stick-configuration-files.15513/

    Some Real Life Stuff

    That is a wide topic. You can still use that as the way to make a stand, but back when, I mean when we were kids, you knew how to turn it off, and turn it back on again. I think it's a complex issue, but for me there was a turning point in 2001. My oldest was in high school, he was 15...

    What do you do for a living?

    My hat's off man. I have an autistic nephew, he's 3 years old now and has started half day programs. His Grandmother takes care of him at home. His parents... don't really understand why he doesn't respond to chatty instructions, so Grandma (Na to him) is his refuge in a lot of ways.

    3.5 is alive

    Bah Hum... uh, what does the Easter Bunny say? He's a rabbit, and I'm in the US. No holiday for me. On the upside, no snow or even freezing rain this year. And they carry Tim Horton's at the grocery store now, so it's not all that bad. There are some interesting problems with this build...

    3.5 is alive

    @August, thanks! And here I thought I could actually get to bed before midnight 30 for once this week. Nope. lol but that's not necessarily a bad thing. It looks like you missed a couple of updates. When that happened to me last summer and fall, I had to use the Validate option in the...

    A bug that led to some nice screenshots :)

    And this is why you don't really want to fly a Connie or other ships with similar size like it was a fighter. you're a floating stationary target in comparison.

    What do you do for a living?

    I get to invent new ways of doing things, and the answer to the other question is YES. My job became a hobby, then in 2005 my hobby became by career.... there I said it properly that time.

    The Fall of Babylon 6: A Tale of Disaster and Mismanagement

    lol I don't even know what that means. I liked The Godfather, and Jabba the Hutt is like my last landlord. Almost as heavy as she was too.
