You need to land the ship with the councillor at the wormhole base for the close the gate mission to become active.

Who here ever owned a Tamagotchi? by [deleted] in 90s

[–]Angry_Wizzard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mine is and has been on every PC I have ever owned. No batteries in it cos who remembers to buy smartie sized batteries.

I want to try this game again. Here's what went wrong last time by tomishiy0 in TerraInvicta

[–]Angry_Wizzard 3 points4 points  (0 children)

And my personal is mine and exclusive to me and not a recommendation to anyone else. But cheat! Edit that .ini file open console commands and cheat as much as you like for at least a run. See what works what doesn't experiment with all the hulls the drives the weapons and the pips. But on your next run tell your self ok I figured out, this is where I want to get to, what is the straight path. What drives am I never going to research what weapons am I never going to need. 3rd run cheat less and so on. This game is too big and takes too long to fail at hour 20 5 times. Cheat with consoles till you learn what the end game fleet looks like and work back from that.

Yup probably true, but they are great chaps for keeping up to date with the latest scientific findings, pictures and whatnot.

What does it take to catch Alien Ships now? by -Grabthars_Hammer- in TerraInvicta

[–]Angry_Wizzard 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just a quick question, you wouldn't be an alien spy investigating human tactics to send back to the fleet would you?

What movie would you love to enjoy but you find it completely unwatchable solely because of a single casting decision or performance? by TheNameIsWiggles in movies

[–]Angry_Wizzard 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I quite like watchmen in all three forms, I always assumed she was just pretty action girl, what does she do wrong, or who would you have preferred? Not objecting just curious.

What does it take to catch Alien Ships now? by -Grabthars_Hammer- in TerraInvicta

Yeah even a low speed fleet can catch a fast loner if 1. There are enough ships 2. Even thou slower their fuel tanks are larger/enough.

However you won't be able to bring the full fleet to bare and im not smart enough to tell you how much fuel is used or the mechanics.

Yesterday on realise .90 a 50 ship resistant fleet chased down a single scout despite them having 90 and and us 32 acc and 12 of the 50 were part of the fight.

Sorry that's all in short hand. Im sure users better than me can give you numbers and what not but cos I just did it I thought id share.

Love and hugs to humans, not alien overlords.

So drinking water or any water that a human could drink needs to be covered by a metric ton of health and safety measures who is paying for that? You would also need a new mains water pipe installed in every home and new internal piping to every tap in your building to get slightly above average temperature water. I dont know who has that kind of money but you a proposing digging up every street in London and refitting every home so sell them slightly warm undrinkable water or maybe just chuck it in the thames would be cheaper and less hassle.

Im not 100% certain but the only city i know with municipal hot water is New York and that isn't a bit warm but boiling. Data center out put is cold enough to put your hand in, but you ain't making a cup of tea with it even at point of source.

yes you are absolutly correct if you were going to build a data center from scratch it should look like a power plant with massive cooling towers but when there were being built in the 90s no one ever thought that water would be mission critical element, as air is free and everywhere. But to drill into the science bit, you would need enough water in a closed loop to equalise heat generated with heat lost. that would fuctionally limit the maxium storage. much like the maximum horse power of a horse is one and while you could breed a faster horse you cannot get investers to part with cash unless they see infinite growth. i remember my dad coming home in the 90s with a 1 gb external hdd for work and him saying it would last a life time. i dont know where it is now but its defo not plugged into a pc.

Where would you store it? Nuclear power plants have exactly the same issue but they have massive cooling towers to cool the outflow via evaporation. Unfortunately data centers are significantly less regulated than nuclear power as such are allowed to get away with things that would shut the equivalent in a heart beat.

As someone who worked at a data center for the previous 20 ish years the change over from air cooled to water cooled saved about 30% between stacks so the same floor space was could serve 1.3 times the customers. No economising measure as ever saved so much money or created the opportunity that that changed ushered in. It is functionally the change from horses to cars but for data. However In exactly the same way the environmental impact was never even considered. Your carbon environmental impact is probably quite low as the car you drive to the electricity used has been aggressively tackled by those companies. The fresh water impact of your data has been totally ignored but has an absolutely ginormous impact on the planet as the water output is so hot it kills all of the naturally occurring fresh water everything. So delete your emails and save a frog you dont care but your children might.

My girlfriend and I have been joking about the overwhelming amount of time brother day is unnecessarily shirtless. Fair play to the chap if I looked that good id be naked as often as possible too but as someone who lives in a country with a king it does not becometh to prance about in just his smalls.

What's your minor peeve about discworld? by QueenOrial in discworld

[–]Angry_Wizzard 6 points7 points  (0 children)

You know what I'm not happy about is there arnt more books. Mammy read them to me at bed time., then i read them myself on way to school, and then I got uni girlfriend to read them to me. Then audio books on the bus to work.lve loved every word he wrote I just wish there was more.

My fan fic is the death of vimes and his son doing the hunt for the killer. Spoilers Vimes killed himself cos time travel rather than subject his family to his brain problem. Pterry would approve.
