I know, ho-hum, the thing we've all been on pins & needles for over 2 decades has successfully deployed all its mirrors and gadgets and we can just forget about it, amirite? Amazing bit of work from the continuously amazing NASA...gotta say, in these times, they are a consistents source of...

Whatever the next Greek letter after "Omicron" is, well, IT'S COMING! lol https://edition.cnn.com/travel/article/airline-passengers-partying-canada-sunwing/index.html

I diagnose "Dumbass-itis"

Two observations: a) nothing of value was lost; & b) interesting how the misinformation about this death is spreading https://www.ocregister.com/2022/01/04/husband-kelly-ernby-wasnt-vaccinated-when-she-died-of-covid-19-complications/

You are missing the point. You are supposed to say "Fuck it" at some point and buy an even bigger ship / more ships lol (For some reason, I have no problem landing my Aurora at Bud's Growery, but when I try landing it on Clio, it blows away...last time, about 7km. And yes, of course, I turn my...

The flu shot is better than nothing...I highly recommend it...but having said that, and echoing previous comments above, the flu shot relies on old tech, and is no where near as effective as the mRNA vaccines. Here's to hoping they apply the mRNA tech to the flu shots, and soon...

The haters are absolutely vicious! Not saying that there are some real reviews, and not saying there aren't valid points (which we really wouldn't be in a position to ascertain or judge), but just be aware that GlassDoor has been weaponized in the past.

I'm betting tax breaks. I'm betting the UK govt. is essetially make this all cost-neutral to them, so why not? We can check their financial statements at some point. BTW, this is what I think of when I hear "Star Citizen" and "GlassDoor" reviews: View: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wsB4uvWrokc

Nah, they just told Disco they are closing it down to troll him ... joke... I have no idea what they are doing, I haven't heard that they are closing down LA...I have heard they are expanding the UK studio like crazy, which is smart --> wages in LA are insane, and are much cheaper in the UK. I...

Just a quick note...as many have pointed out, there is a difference between "hiring discrimination" and then sexism/discrimination at the workplace. In fact, one could have a perfectly fine hiring experience, and then land in a cruddy work section where the boss and/or co-workers are complete...

Agreed. In my line of work, we have a saying, "The plural of 'anecdote' is not 'data.'" LOL, esp. after listening to the video by @vahadar , where the person (a former employee) is talking about introducing metrics to the animations...he is talking about CR saying, "yeah, whatever, go to town"...

And in the true spirit of Star Citizen... Bah humBUG! get it, BUGs...I'll go grab my coat...

Just in time for Christmas...with as infectious/transmissible the Omicron strain is, they are saying that cloth face masks are pretty much worthless, and we all should be wearing at least genuine surgical masks or N95 respirators. Merry Christmas...

Time again for the Annual "My scented-candles don't have any scent" COVID surge tracking, lol: View: https://twitter.com/nick_beauchamp/status/1473509106187223043

I was betting that the Steel was either going to come in right *under* the Ares, so that people would have to melt it to get the credit to buy Steel, or just above it so that they would have to CCU up to it. As more and more people bitched about the Ares, I figured CIG was going to see about...
