You say indoctrinated, I say that a lot of people are looking at his actions and are forming their own opinions. Musk has a lot of qualities, both good and bad, like most people. Unfortunately, like a certain person named Chris R., he has a big habit of overpromising, underdelivering, and...

Can they be that daft? Yes...yes they can. Okay, let's talk about ways they might change things. Now, I have not been hand mining in ages, so it may not work this way anymore, but IIRC, you would break, then tractor them up and they would go automatically into your backpack. Maybe this has...

Here is the thing, the Vulture and Prospector were supposed to BE the starting profession ships. With the crazy ship prices though, they now feel they need to introduce cheaper entry ships, driving up the price of the old "starters"

That was my point....CIG introduces the GEO, and to force people to use it, they remove the ability to harvest with the multi-tool as it's "not real enough" Same with salvage eventually, just like it is with the tractor beams.

Let me guess, with the introduction of the GEO, we will no longer be able to mine with the multi-tool?

Actually, I used SF to pickup an LTI Emerald Connie Phoenix which was one of the few ways to pick up an LTI Phoenix. Of course, that was when they had the Emerald Archimedes and the Emerald Ursa for sale with LTI, so it didn't cost 3k to get an "expensive" ship. (I can't believe that at one...

I always use "gets run over by a squirrel" instead of of "gets hit by a bus" when discussing business continuity plans. "Look, I know Sam is a great worker, but what happens tomorrow if she goes out for a walk and gets run over by a Squirrel? She's the only one that knows those processes and...

Penderyn Whisky isn't bad either (Welsh Whisky, abd distinct from the Irish or Scottish versions) Really wanting to go to the UK and maybe Ireland at some point.

I was fortunate enough to see Billy Joel on his River of Dreams Tour and Reba on one of her tours. Both performers were absolutely fantastic. Recently, I have been able to see Alton Brown on his stage show (it's good, get a ticket and go if you can), took in a Lecture from Neil DeGrasse...

About 10 years ago, I backed for a game being made by Chris Roberts. It had big plans and a reasonable implementation date, but it could all be done with mostly existing tech. Sure, it would need some stuff like 64 bit precision and some tech that would allow for upgraded netcode to allow more...

I think this is a partial translation Oh, yes. My dad [something something something] you know? Guesstimate….oh yeah? My dad from the Lead Hills, do you know him?

Scotch eggs are not bad, but I find the ratio of sausage to egg a bit off for my taste

Oh, I do agree with you, but some of the stuff I see CIG doing in the name of "realism" (needing to fight fires with hand held fire extinguishers for instance, cargo loading, etc.) is just plain silly. I see the need to load and unload cargo when you are moving goods from one ship to another...

Yes... There I was...it was the dawn of the personal computer age...Mattel had an electronics game system called intellivision that you could place baseball on (really bad power switch design though), and even an add on module that allowed for "voice". A time when CP/M still held sway, where...

operation pitchfork isn't happening as there will be no vanduul systems...at least at 1.0 launch and since operation pitchfork is supposed to happen just before the game goes live for the final time.... That said, you have to ask why we have WWII in space as "start of the art" in 930 years. No...

No Glorious Leader, they have to release a game that people will buy. How many people already have a copy of SQ42? Lots. What they need is to sell to people new to the project or don’t have the game in their pack, and who won’t wait for reviews to buy it. I don’t think CIG’s going to...

I have already suggested multiple times in spectrum that since we can already “repair’ ships with our hand held salvage guns, that salvage ships that have the right materials should be allowed to repair ships in a similar manner….for now. I am not suggesting that it remain that way, just saying...

If you are interested in a game package with 20k UEC and 6 month insurance, there is a Cutlass Black package being offered with red paint, armor, backpack, and shotgun for 100 bucks, which is 10 bucks less than it costs for the regular ship. Correction, it is warbond...

May we never forget the lessons of the past.

you are correct on that, I have just never seen that color scheme on a MISC ship
