Dinklage was angry that the opportunity was taken from dwarf actors to act as dwarves, because they are dwarves. He doesn’t take any offense the way woke morons pretend. And yeah, this is the problem with ideologically captured morons—they are ideologically captured, and they are morons.

Are you using the Glaive to ram? I’m curious why you say it is terrible.

So, probably others here already knew, but I didn’t until today; that the Firebird got a huge upgrade. Not only does it have twice the missiles (24), but its stealth armor mod went from 20% to 40%. What does this mean in practical terms? First of all, it can fire four, six S3 missile salvoes...

I recently saw a Lancer MIS cut the F8 in half in no time. Apparently it can’t manage S3 missiles at all. For those not current on missile play, S3s don’t do a lot more damage than S2s. The real difference is S2s have a 5km range, and S3s have a 25km range. That places the quietly flown MIS...

I thought someone said a couple weeks ago they knew him irl and would check on him. What’s up with that?

“Incompetent, lazy, troublesome, self absorbed, a narcissist” with the last repeated multiple times—all terms Gal Gadot is using to refer to and describe Rachael Zegler. In fact, Gal is blaming Rachael for all five failed test screenings, and railing on her for her comments about the production...

That was one of the earliest controversies. It is a couple years old now so it’s hard to recall, but I think the original decision was based upon the same kinds of arguments people make about “cultural appropriation” arguing that it was somehow rude to feature little people at all. The notion...

Star Wars Theory is six sessions in and seems to be enjoying it. He doesn’t seem to be getting bugs.

Continuing crazy coming from Disney over the hot mess that is Snow White. After many tens of millions in reshoots, focus groups, rewrites and more reshoots, Disney wants to can the entire ending of the film, noting focus groups hated the story and Rachel Ziegler’s performance as Snow White. At...

IIRC, Avenger_One said it is a blast to fly and very deadly, but easy pickings for most light fighters—pretty much the same as the Sabre. Gladius kill them dead.

No, I’m saying that in normal scan you will boost up to top drift speed, your SCM; then cut your engines and drift uncoupled for as long as it takes. SCM sets that limit, so that’s the speed to compare. This also means you can neglect IR in comparisons since you have almost none when your...

People keep saying this ship is useless but I would point out we don’t know that. So in the event someone here has never heard me mention. . . Scan rate is a linear function of the max speed of a ship unpowered, times the quadratic (squared) function of its scan radius. We don’t have scan radii...

I am shocked. Is it not a transgression, nay; immoral ponderance to discuss “building bases” when so many exist already? Does it not speak to mankind’s most base instincts to multiply materialistic consumer goods when what we already have is so many bases being held temporarily for us to meekly...

What concerns me is we got this and nothing else. Where’s the Polaris?

I think we’re agreed. If I understand what CIG has said on this, you’ll be able to hire engineer NPCs to handle the little stuff, but in order to access the more complex and powerful functions of full Damage Control systems on cap ships, you’ll need both a player, and a couple NPC engineers...

My bad. I should have said “galley”. It has a microwave, but nothing like a kitchen. And yeah, you can make due. It’s not terrible. It has a deceptively small footprint, and it’s pretty quick. No cargo though, which makes no sense to me. Even so, if current signatures stay with us, I have to...

Disney news seems to be split between the Acolyte folks continuing to complain publicly, and Mark Hamil inadvertently aiding Gina Carano’s lawsuit by making flagrantly political statements—all pretty boring. Let’s skip that. In Disney adjacent industry news, Amazon is again being lambasted for...

Does seem meh, but if it has the standard Sabre’s stealth capability, this might make an interesting recon scout. Unfortunately, erkul is showing an IR sig 20% above the standard Sabre. So yeah, meh. The Terrapin and Ghost Hornet are crushing it in stealth since the last signatures pass. Sure...
