    Greetings

    We don't hold mining events on Monday any more, but on Thursdays when announced. @Athyrah is busy with her studies at the moment :like: That said, we often have impromptu mining ops, almost at any time. I will help anyone almost any time I'm online, I know a few others are good to go too...

    Bed login question

    I haven't had any issues with this lately, 2 or 3 weeks... It was kind of weird because the database would survive a change of server, but not a log out. Fortunately, for the most part it's working now. Symptom is an indication that they were having problems with some database commits...

    I give up.

    I'll say, the level of detail (LOD) is awesome both in the planets and moons, but also the ships and other game assets. It's not so great with in-game character development, hair styles (are a joke) and other things like rendering flesh, even how they walk have big problems that border on a...

    I give up.

    Almost everybody. There are a couple of competitive technologies, but not nearly as successful. I used to work in simulation development (as opposed to game development... they are close but have different objectives) The technology itself has been available to implement since some time...

    Bed login question

    The outcome of that would probably be you log into the same bed as your friend 30%of the time (not asking questions), and into some random ship 30% of the time, and cause a server crash the other 30% of the time. There is 10% missing - it's in the stack of boxes on the ground over there...

    Welcome to TEST! Pac-Man that you played in a Pizza Hut arcade? Gawd I can hardly remember that. Question: Do you remember Pong or Asteroids?

    Illiterate plant (hello!)

    verbal salad is random stuff you can think of to say to a bunch of drunks you don't yet know. Also known as a word salad, but not in quite the same context as word salad meaning schizophasia, which definition is actually describing part of aphasia not schizophrenia. Unless... ok I shut up now.

    Will there be steaming piles?

    Bullshit.

    I give up.

    TMI follows: It's for me, kind of "do or become a useless piece of uncooked meat." I chose do... My wife would treat me like hamburger if I gave up.

    I give up.

    They do grant them, normally for specific medical problems. I happen to have one of the problems, but I am using SC to work through it, because I need the same skills in my work - my SC time seems to be helping with that.

    3.18 pushed back

    It's probably a good thing. If there's a risk of introducing new bugs, it's better to take baby steps, not giant leaps.

    I give up.

    I have many of the same complaints btw, I think we've talked about it before. There's nothing wrong with the way you feel about it. A break from the game sounds like it may work.

    Prices in the US seem to be up in the clouds too, so I looked online. I was thinking (read: I got bored) this should be a simple recipe, since kids can bathe in it... I dunno about either of these, but maybe? First link has way too much advertizing...

    What about soap suds? Let the brats play in bubbles. When my oldest kid was like 2, we spent a week at my parent's house. They had a jet propelled electric bathtub, my son didn't think much of - until I put probably way too much soap suds in the water for that kind of tub. It berried him. He...

    Will there be steaming piles?

    I haven't really enjoyed Rings of Power, but I can see how they're tying into the Tolkien story now. But Tolkien was a master story teller, and wasn't trying to write for the small screen. It was also a life's work for him, compared with a studio that has deadlines and budgets to deal with...

    ok maybe a silly question but...

    I've done exactly that, quite a few times. I sometimes do this with packages too. You can use this to reset ships in the package if you upgraded the wrong way or if the package is re-released with different options. You do need to watch what ships you have in packages though, that's how I...

    How will we defend player bases when we're away?

    Don't bet on it. Closer to the mark here.
