    Ninjagirl told me to go trim the grass 5hrs ago

    Well. She asked him to cut the grass or mow the lawn or whatever she calls whatever she wanted, and he didn't... so... she went out with the weed wacker. I'd call that a serious warning either way.

    I like this! Good plausible explanation. Good story too!

    Ninjagirl told me to go trim the grass 5hrs ago

    You're not... like in trouble, like you won't likely be in the doghouse, or sleeping on the couch for this specifially. But trouble is a kind of range. you need to equalize this, or it counts as a loss of status with your wife. Not a good situation, because they tend to pile up over time...

    Hello, Squadron.

    Welcome to TEST @Straiker. Hey I started with pong and asteroids on dedicated terminals, so yeah C-64 and whatnot counts.

    I have just blown my own mind...

    Read up on it online then like google toum. I ruined about 30% of the batches when I first started making it.

    Good old roleplaying...keep the safety word to 1 syllable, trust me!

    Careful @Radegast74, some of the syrup-sucking, maple-leaf menace lives in Texas. I might say Sorry to you. Is that aboat right? (No Canadian says "A boot". we say it more like "a-boat".)

    I have just blown my own mind...

    Not this... if there's anything that doesn't taste like mashed potato, it's instant mashed potato. Even though it's made from potato, it tastes like it was sent to an Eylmer's Glue factory at some point in the process. Sorry Idahoan, it taste like paste. This is how to make good baked...

    Pseudo Night Vision in SC

    Can't really speak for anyone else but fro me... Beer. Chicks. No, I mean little chickens. More beer. Sister-in-law story-about-niece. Made niece feel better. Then played SC for a bit.

    TWRL idea - different type off ammo.

    Yes Window and shied are two different things - to different things, and that's a problem. What is a window to one, is a shield to the other. Silicate glass (like used in glass windows in your house) is an example. It's transparent to infra-red and light, but opaque to ultra-violet. That's...

    TWRL idea - different type off ammo.

    Interesting read. If you're into it: https://physics.fullerton.edu/~jimw/nasa-pap/ If you're not into it, the math will make your brain run out your nose. Very cool stuff though

    TWRL idea - different type off ammo.

    So you know how I'm always after CIG for non-Newtonian Newtonian Physics. THEY said it was Newtonian. I called B.S. on that, not even first. So energy weapons aren't laser beams. Read issue with lasers above. I think they should be particle weapons of some kind. The shots are too dang...

    TWRL idea - different type off ammo.

    Some bit of TLDR; here too. Read last paragraph to skip. I read the above comments by the way. some good experience and knowledge in TEST. Most people who study combat physics in space have pretty much decided plain old musket ballistics is likely the best system. That's an unguided, fast...

    Pseudo Night Vision in SC

    FWIW, adjusting gamma is not cheating. nor is adjusting brightness and contrast. But. In space, where the sun don't shine it's dark. How dark? REALLY dark. What I don't get, is why we use an ASL altimeter instead of proximity radar. Makes 0 sense to me.

    That thing Montoya wants

    Drool. No I mean really. I drooled. Dunno what happened, but I want the F8.

    Piracy A pirates best friend...

    Yup. Me too. So I bought one. It is fantastic. There's one problem though, doesn't have anything to do with the Eclipse really. Maiden flight, I get interdicted. Pirate says I should bugger off (sooo... why did he interdict me if he didn't want company?), I turned to face him. Blew him...

    I have some really really really bad news...

    It's OK... it's OK. It was Barton 1792, not Texas 1835. Phew! Scared me there for a moment! Just think of all the bourbon soaked oak barrel staves though... That makes some great furniture. If I ever get a leg amputated, I want a peg leg made out of Kentucky Bourbon Oak. No better way to be...

    Thoughts on 3.2 and CONCERNE (so it's a rant ofc)

    Beer is not anti-brain juice :cry:. Tell me it's not so.

    Please don't like my thread-campaign

    Ok. How many others resemble hooters? Cuz where I'm from, that's what we call perky and large mammary glands. I'm trying to gauge how many tits play SC here....

    Thoughts on 3.2 and CONCERNE (so it's a rant ofc)

    Not trying to disagree with you, just explaining what CIG was thinking. You're right, it's a little insane to expect people to pay that kind of money to do them a favor. But quite honestly, their methods and thinking are very similar to what we do in enterprise software development too...
