    Queen Elizabeth II passes

    Mostly for members from the UK and Commonwealth countries, but she had a lot of respect and admiration from other countries. Rest in peace, Your Majesty. This might be the cause of a lot of debate in the Commonwealth at least, and potentially in the UK. We'll see.

    Gallant Burstfire mode

    To me, the Gallant is one of the most underrated personal weapons in SC. I use either that or a P4 SMG. And I don't normally wander around with 2 weapons dangling from my back, especially two huge monstrosities. That not only looks and sounds ridiculous, but you can only use one at a time.

    Using Voice Attack to transfer inventory

    Hey Guys, if you're in Discord please make sure that you set push to talk so we don't have to listen to dozens of Voice Attack commands. It's really funny, especially if you don't annunciate clearly while under stress, but it also gets annoying and will likely have people muting you in short...

    Hello all...

    Welcome Gh0st! Ghost Dragon... I has a soft spot for dragon mythology, so I love the name.

    Ship Showdown 2952!

    The Pisces is my favorite ship that doesn't have a specific role. Current spread is going to be mind numbing to those who don't like it. I'm not even going to say, look for yourselves. If the Pisces wins, I will also have chosen 4 winners... only I don't currently own an Avenger Titan so I...

    Hello everyone! o7

    I landed my Carrack like a SpaceX command module capsule thingy at New Babbage. Had to jump down, and it's a long way. Everything was going fine until I came that a sudden stop on the hanger floor. That kind of hurt a bit. Thankfully, I did manage to complete my trade after I respawned.

    Nightvision

    All this seems to be doing is manipulating the in-game gamma and color balance. I have been doing that manually for years because I have to. Shoot me if you think that's bad... and CIG can' refund my money if it ends up against the rules. I'm doing it to overcome a real life disability that...

    Shit new applicants are saying

    I hadn't heard about an MPUV being used to get into Klesher before. But whatever works to get you into Yellow and Black!

    Not far from $500 million in funding UPDATE - 500 Mil hit

    It would probably wait until you stopped spinning to do an update. You can't focus on an area in your real life if you're spinning either. I've seen some developers even simulate a player getting dizzy from doing that. It gives the game a moment to figure out what the player should be seeing...

    Not far from $500 million in funding UPDATE - 500 Mil hit

    What do you mean? It is all English. 🙂 Actually it is. If you're inclined to have your eyes glaze over, just read the last paragraph. A zbuff is shorthand for Z axis buffer. The depth buffer. Look around you where you are. Your monitor is overlapping the wall, and your table overlaps the...

    Not far from $500 million in funding UPDATE - 500 Mil hit

    This is a prime example of where "It's Alpha" is absolutely not an excuse. In real time software, preloading objects is not an option, it's a must do. There is a kind of workaround we can use, that is to open the elevator door, and if what is behind hasn't rendered then let the door close -...

    Satellite internet .

    I have used geosynchronous satellite, I still have an account but I haven't used it for 2 or 3 years. It isn't fun to do anything that otherwise requires real time. I'm locked into that contract for another 2 months. For me it's better to use a cell phone link even with the limits. I'm...

    My prediction for the Ship Show Down

    If you're correct, I have 3 of the finalists, including the one you pick for first place. cool... only unless they get black with yellow highlights, I'm unlikely to use them. More hanger queen skins.

    Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power (Amazon TV LOTR series)

    You're the expert here in movies, I'm just the audience. Try this. compare a map of middle earth drawn by Tolkien, with a map of Europe 40 to 20,000 years ago. The resemblance is striking, even though Prof. Tolkien was using just conjecture made by HG Wells (who he knew.) Pay attention to...

    Ship Showdown 2952!

    Early returns, but the Carrack is 3 to 2 against 400i so far.

    Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power (Amazon TV LOTR series)

    I have to agree, it was visually really well done but the story itself is not compelling me to watch more. I'm going to, I just am kind of on the fence. One thing I realized though, as told so far this is part of the story of the Hobbits, though not so well portrayed, Gandalf (maybe but...

    My prediction for the Ship Show Down

    Thanks. I voted for the Terrapin so I might even get more perfect overnight. ... and look! even CIG is perfect... Edit: Technical but short. The issues above are related to malformed cookies, and are probably safe. They'd have to have whoever wrote the website to check. But there are...

    Hello from an Origin fanboy!

    Welcome to TEST! A lot of us consider crashing to be a skill. I for instance, have become very proficient at crashing a Prospector into almost any moon.

    My prediction for the Ship Show Down

    Don't worry, I'm maintaining my average so far. 0/2 isn't bad.
