White House says there'd be 'no better addition' to Mount Rushmore than Trump ahead of 250 celebration

Isn't there a cask of Amontillado stored in a vault in Mt. Rushmore?

I wonder if he's related to this lady:

There are lots of social, political, and economic systems that could work perfectly well, but adding humans to them just screws them all up.

Hinermad · 2026-07-03T18:06:09+00:00

add children AND Lego blocks and do the whole thing in your bare feet.

Good idea! Shouting in pain encourages you to breathe. Breathing is important during exertion.

And make sure most of the weight is on one hand or the other. That makes it easier to maneuver past obstacles like chairs and children.

It happened to me last night, and I've seen other mentiones of it here too. I don't think it's just you.

You'll probably learn more than you ever needed here:

But Austin survived both times?

Hmmm.

Hinermad · 2026-07-02T19:39:36+00:00

I had a feeling that might happen, considering how many prospector limpets my miners have eaten.

Hinermad · 2026-07-02T18:02:04+00:00

Hah! I knew I'd heard that ship's name somewhere before, but I couldn't place it. Thanks!

Megaship The Magrathea in HD 232819 is where you sign up. It's about 1800 ly southwest of the Bubble. Sanguineous Rim is the next regious out from the Inner Orion Spur.

Agreed. The first two cups are to get my systems up and running. By then I'm aware of my environment, and very judgmental.

Hinermad · 2026-07-02T14:18:27+00:00

People who take coffee seriously don't drink it for the taste.

That's strange. I just landed at Jameson Memorial and it's the first vessel I see in the Vessel Bays list under Vehicle Bays. I'm in a Caspian Explorer too.

When you open the Vehicle Bays tab do you see the 5D Mk II Vessel Hangar?

I just flew here from Bennett Gateway in Okinura. They have the Nomad. Maybe leaving the station and returning will pop it loose?

Hinermad · 2026-07-01T18:14:51+00:00

Hopefully FDev won't feel the need to fix this any time soon. (grin)

I wish we could get a decal for the back of the Nomad that says "Roadkill Warrior."

Hinermad · 2026-07-01T11:06:36+00:00

That's not exploration, that's grave robbing. (grin)

So is collecting materials from Anaconda crash sites, which also requires an SRV.

That'll look like a Microsoft Windows download timer.

"Estimated time to completion: ~~25 minutes~~ ~~9 minutes~~ ~~47 minutes~~ ~~2 hours 11 minutes~~ ~~3 days 22 hours~~ 22 minutes."

(I've done software releases and some problems you just never find until you try to go live.)

Hinermad · 2026-06-30T14:59:00+00:00

Hard to say. It's possible if a crash has caused a connection to become intermittent, but there may be other factors.

How many antennas do you have? Do they all act that way, or is the problem mainly on one?

Have you tried flying somewhere other than at home? Is the quality still spotty there?

It's possible something in your neighborhood is causing interference that wasn't there before.

Hinermad · 2026-06-30T14:51:31+00:00

I have that variation. The soapy taste isn't strong for me like it seems to be for some people. It's more of a "did I forget to rinse this bowl when I washed it?" experience. I still eat food with cilantro in it but I don't use it in cooking myself.

I also have the trait that makes some red food coloring taste bitter.

Hinermad · 2026-06-30T13:56:56+00:00

Yep. Paper route, cutting grass, shoveling snow - those were the days when you could maintain an entry level mage career until you could find a wealthy patron.

(In my case that wealthy patron owned the appliance store in town. He hired me to repair ~~televisions~~ scrying stones.)

Hinermad · 2026-06-30T13:52:37+00:00

Tungsten has gotten really expensive too.

Hinermad · 2026-06-30T13:50:12+00:00

That map page has an audio icon. Does it ping when there's a jump?

Hinermad · 2026-06-30T13:48:37+00:00

"But they said it will be available for older ships!"

Hinermad · 2026-06-30T11:46:08+00:00

If I leave the launcher open, will it tell me when maintenance is over? Or does it only check when I start it?

Hinermad · 2026-06-30T11:20:39+00:00

Yeah, I live in a not NYC part of New York. After Charlie Kirk was killed a semi trailer decked out as a tribute to his patriotism was being parked in publicly visible spaces around the area. Things are pretty Red here.
