    [Video] - Patch 3.5 is almost done!

    Green does have it's uses... the "go" part of a stop light for instance. But I'm with @Montoya, that green, pared with white is disturbing on a few levels. I have 2 of those rovers somehow... the regularly colored ones... so PLEASE someone else win the darn thing.

    I freefall sometimes, when I'm bored... I can't drink for about the next 4 or 5 months, so that's all I get for now. The trip down is not too bad, and in a prospector it's a chance to get some refueling done in the magic atmosphere.

    They did say something to that effect, so we'll see how it goes. They could just leave it really. Hurston has earth like gravity so could have an atmosphere like that. It's just something you need to be aware of... it's going to take time to get out of the gravity well of a planet. I also...

    Yep. Not to mention the distance you have to travel in Hurston's atmosphere. Bring a snack and a drink.

    Yes, Taranite, Bexalite, Borase are the top 3 for me. Laranite can have big payouts but the bigger the payout the more risky it is. If you don't have good control of the mining laser, you can find yourself in trouble. I mine a lot of Bexalite, mostly because if I end up at Lorville I don't...

    Sometimes you get lucky too. Last week, I landed on a node of Larinite that gave me almost 22K. There was another node about 400 yards away almost as good, but my capacity was full. I landed, and while I was turning it in, crash. lovely.

    Oh nooo, I missed my own 3rd anniversary

    I forget everything, all the time. My wife knew that about me before we got married though, so she scheduled the wedding for Christmas day. It was brilliant. Now I have 2 things to forget. OH crap, I forgot. One of the kids was born Dec 24th.

    St. Patricks Day(Stella Fortuna) Sale - A lot of wait for next to nothing

    There is no rush to buy a ship now. In a few months CIG will have another ship that fills the same hole anyway, so why rush?

    Black and Yellow -- TEST Edition

    Then again... SC is full of kitsch, and you don't have to look far for it. Those subways get me every time I see them. A subway? 900 years from now? On rails? I keep thinking I'm going to see a Texas Instruments calculator next.

    VIRPIL restock is in just a few hours

    20 years... USB 1.1, so you're good. Speed changed a lot (in an upward direction), and device support is a lot better. Just be aware, some of the 20-somethings in SC have brutal reaction times in combat. They have no strategy, and their tactics are often the same fight to fight, but man, they...

    VIRPIL restock is in just a few hours

    Not all of them need USB but most do, and it turns out to be the most portable format. If you're worried about the availability of USB plugs on your chosen platform, just know that the number of USB ports is not really that big an issue. One solution provider you might be interested in is...

    TEST Book Club - March Selection

    It's a LOT lighter... that's all I'll say till you finish it. I like hard science fiction, but it isn't my favorite story genre. I have a much Much MUCH lighter suggestion this month.

    I use audio books too. Amazing invention, for me they have been a lifesaver. If you are a member of some of the various book clubs, you can get audio books included in your subscription. There is a review of Seveneves that showed up almost a year after I read it that captured a lot of how...
