    finally managed to land on a planet...

    My first landing went only slightly better, but also ended in suicide. It was a Cutlass Black, and it did land right side up. but. The new Cutlass model doesn't have ladders to get in or out, so I landed and lowered the ramp. I didn't even bother to look at the height of the ramp off the...

    Well, I've reached "Fuck It".

    also, in Levski, if you took too long to land, it might screw up when you try to take off. What it does, it'll rubber band you at some point back inside the hanger. You might be just lifting off, or exiting the landing bays when it happens, or you might even be well on your way, 100 Km away at...

    SUGGESTION - If you find a profitable trade run inform fellow TESTies

    Trade is not very smart, that's pretty clear at the moment, you still have the buy low, sell high but some of the items we made money on yesterday in intra-system trade, simply didn't make any money today and prices were static and seemed the same on different servers. That's not how it worked...

    SUGGESTION - If you find a profitable trade run inform fellow TESTies

    What we found out last night (There were a bunch of TESTies in on and in Discord, from like 6 PM until 3 AM. Actually longer but I fell asleep at 3 AM, no idea if they're still running) Right now the economy is kind of predictable, but very volatile. The highest buy prices are usually at...

    3.0 is live.

    It's not really buggy... so much as quirky. It does need polish that's for sure, but almost everything works. Port Olisar doors excepted, but you can usually get out another door, and walk around the strut to your ship. Once you download and install the client once, after that every so often...

    3.0 is live.

    It feels like it. Then they went on vacation until January 8th(?), which might be a problem if a few issues don't get fixed lickety split like. During a cargo run, I encountered a server issue (30007 error) which resulted in having to reclaim a ship, and swallow the loss of the cargo, and the...

    Whoever has doubts about the Commitment of CIG/SC/SQ42 ...

    The only thing I am worried about is whether or not I will be able to play SC on my current hardware, but I've never been adverse to getting new hardware. My bank account sometimes whines a bit, but I personally have no problem with the idea.

    PTU for everyone!

    Got 3 hours in this AM, in 2 sessions. Levski's back in operation. So are the pirates pulling you out of quantum bu they're easy to either defeat or ignore. If your ship can't fight, just go re-engage quantum travel as soon as possible. First session sucked. there were all sorts of issues...

    Video: Speculative bubbles of the past and bitcoin

    @Montoya, BRE-X! Seriously? You don't look old enough now, to have been anything more than like12 when Bre-x was a thing! And you made the only mention of Barrick Gold I've heard in a very long time. But! You're I think your analysis is absolutely right. You could add Nortel stock too...

    Video: Net Neutrality is gone, where do we go from here?

    Well quite honestly that's because we are not nearing saturation, and bandwidth is not inefficient. Instead, it is incredibly efficient. Where did the idea that bandwidth is inefficient come from? Also. Traffic shaping *is* part of network operations management, and consequently is relevant...

    @NaffNaffBobFace https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/solutions/collateral/service-provider/visual-networking-index-vni/complete-white-paper-c11-481360.html Not sure what it corroborates, but your data is there. It's an interesting read anyway Total Internet traffic (All protocols) for 2017...

    Video: Net Neutrality is gone, where do we go from here?

    What it did do was prevent Internet Service Providers from censoring the Internet without effective controls on their actions. In a nutshell: You need to decide whether or not you want your ISP able to censor (filter, block, throttle) your access to internet services, and demand extra payment...

    Video: Net Neutrality is gone, where do we go from here?

    It requires thinking. That is also a good thing! So just to reiterate a point. Net Neutrality is about censorship of the internet at a very basic level, and censorship is about freedom. When we talk about "Free and equitable access" to the Internet, we're not talking about "Free" as in...

    Video: Net Neutrality is gone, where do we go from here?

    That article quotes two opinions, one for and one against the repeal of Net Neutrality. Good lord I hate that name. It is traffic shaping, packet filtering etc... it didn't need a new name. Anyway... you raised 5 points. There are, in terms of the issues surrounding "net neutrality", the...
