But you do have rating systems hanging over your head. You have a credit score, you have an insurance risk (for every conceivable insurance), you have a tax score for your state and federally - that has a risk assessment attached for every state you work in or inhabit (You seriously don't want...

Welcome to TEST! My advice right now, would be to wait until IAE. You'll be able to buy some ships that aren't currently available to buy - and save a bit of money sometimes too. What ships you buy are honestly your personal choices... so, like @Raven_King says, figure out what floats your...

That's Pretty Pink of you there. I had a few friends who were RCD and PPCLI a few decades ago. It's been a while. Welcome to TEST.

A Prospector is not a physically defendable ship. Every Prospector owner knows this. But with the high risk, also comes high rewards. But it is not worth combat to protect the ore, and it's not worth paying a ransom. So why would you? To save an hour or two? Most miners don't even wear...

It is pretty much essential to have a carrier of some kind for Pyro, and I was rolling my eyes but not at you or your comment, but about them -> I also own a Liberator. If there are 2 ships released every month for the next 4 years, they still wouldn't be in a good place, and that's just...

More ships than just the Liberator are missing. There's also the issue of NPC's who try to walk into walls, or stand on seats still.

Depends how you look at it. I have the memory of an elephant, except I often forget where I put them.

Good beer works for me. So does copious drinking of very strong coffee. Even better if you mix the two.

I don't know if this is available for you or what brands or what it's called there - but we have gel that you can put on a toothache, just a bit will do it. Just a drop and poof... no pain. Odd taste in your mouth though, and if you get it on your tongue it'll also go numb. It will work with...

I do too. Only at one point, I grew a little taller than my hair. edit: I voted Kirk, but I'm told you can also vote for Janeway or 7of9. Welcome to TEST!

Having two databases is not an odd thing, and it's not a bad thing. That is done all the time in software, to separate concerns. In the case of a game, the concerns are session data, vs long term persistence data. They actually require two different database architectures to work effectively...

Welcome to TEST! I don't have the authority either - that's @Montoya job. Now I've gone and woken him up... Come and join us in Discord!

uh... holy shit, I didn't even notice. 🤪 thanks for the heads up!

Hehe, yep like M&M's, but made with slightly different ingredients. When my wife (a Texan) and I go to Canada, she buys 5 pounds of the stuff, and she doesn't eat M&M's anymore. Kind off topic isn't it... sorry :) (In context, that has roughly the same meaning as when my kids say, "Sorry, not...

lol nope. That's what Canadians call a rocket. I'll give you a hint from like 1979 or something. "When you eat your smarties, do you eat the red ones last?"

My deepest condolences to you and your brother. It's a hard and heart wrenching thing to go through, but cherish the memories. You'll have them the rest of your life. My mother died of cancer back in 2010, my father 2 months ago also of cancer. You know, when I went to BC in June, it was to...

I dunno, probably nothing you need to pay taxes on, which will be fine with me when I get there.

As I'm from Canada, living in Texas - I have to agree with that article. North American accents are as diverse as they are in the UK and Ireland, but span far more distance in both time and space. The article talks about Shakespeare - there is still a region in North America where someone...

Wait a sec, he pays us exactly what we deserve. Look, how much have you spent on beer and taxes since you joined TEST? @Montoya is giving us free points! This time I can blame Microsoft for me getting the shade of yellow wrong.

It's amazing what becomes visible in the infrared part of the spectrum. They've known about some sort of rings since 84, but only had glimpses of them until Voyager 2 in '89. 6 rings total, and they are changing rapidly. Something else interesting is in the James Web image, if you look at...
