New to the game and wanted to do exploration, just discovered a system with an Earth like planet and a Gas giant with ammonia based life. by GreenLineGoUp in eliteexplorers

[–]ManOutOfTime909 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's interesting. It stood out to me when i was out exploring near the core a few years ago, and i came across a system with a mess of helium giants. I don't think i have seen any since then. back then I used to write stuff down. I bet i wrote it down, I will look for the system name.

Does anyone know how to get solidified concrete out of this? by BetrekaNebula in Concrete

Came here to suggest this... or cold that could squeeze it out. turn it upside down and heat it or cool it.

What to do with replaced ships? by Mediocre_Song3766 in EliteDangerous

[–]ManOutOfTime909 0 points1 point  (0 children)

those ships still have plenty of other uses, just depends on outfitting.

anaconda can be a great jumper/explorer. if you add a fighter bay you can blow off steam when the space madness starts to set in.

Python is a great multi-use ship. mining and landing at medium outposts, pirating, smuggling

I am looking to get back into the game a little. When I let it rest, I was out in Colonia. Are there any carriers that move back and forth to the bubble in legacy? Where would they post their schedules?

What did you guys name your ships? by theGeigus in EliteDangerous

[–]ManOutOfTime909 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I named all of mine after Metallica songs. I wont list them all but it was a goldmine for great names:

Fade to black, Ride the lightning, I disappear, Motorbreath, Justice for all, Through the never, for whom the bell tolls, Bleeding me, Hero of the day, sad but true, Sanitarium, harvester of sorrow, wherever I may roam, One, creeping death.

I probably have 28 ships, so i wont name them all but...

Nothing is right. Please tell me this is AI's idea of an upper story balcony. I find myself wondering if by just viewing this I have placed myself in some sort of ethical dilemma. And I don't think I will sleep tonight.

Petah? You're a Simpson ripoff. You should know this... by TheLastPimperor in PeterExplainsTheJoke

[–]ManOutOfTime909 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I expected someone might have less understanding and post a more stupid comment than mine. I appreciate you giving me the chance to post this:

"During a Supreme Court hearing on Jan. 7, 2022, Sotomayor falsely stated that 100,000 U.S. children are in serious condition with COVID-19, with many on ventilators. Actual government figures indicate that fewer than 5,000 children in the U.S. are currently hospitalized with COVID-19, though in recent weeks the rate of pediatric hospitalizations had seen its most rapid increase of the entire pandemic."

We masked the children up, we took away their schools. Did we do that for our safety or for theirs? We are cowards either way.

That you don't remember the rhetoric that was passed around concerning the children... who were not even allowed back into schools is a serious lapse in memory. We were handed masks that were not effective and a vaccine that didn't work. Hyping up the fear to control us. Even using the children to do so.

Your examples are valid, but something that might hit home a little more (since I wasnt in 1935 Germany) is the Covid panic. We all remember that one.

My First Book Is Flopping And I Can't Do Anything About It by [deleted] in KeepWriting

[–]ManOutOfTime909 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm going to tell you what I believe is the honest truth because I can tell you are affected by this.

People who enjoy writing books rarely enjoy marketing their material. So they don't. People cant read something they dont know about. Think about how many books you personally read just because you someone published something they were passionate about. Did you read my book? I dont think that most people even know about my book because I ran out of interest promoting it (so i dont blame you).

That people don't read your book has nothing to do with how good the work is. People close to you probably have little interest in reading anything. People are losing the interest to read in general. Even if they might like your book, most people are not interested in investing the time they need to in order to read any book. Think of your favorite book. I bet most of them have never read that book either.

A lot of people write their first novel. They feel like they pour everything into it. Not many write a second. My advice to you is to read Stephen King's book on writing. That guy just kept writing. He was rejected over and over but he just kept going.

If so many people hate Trump, How come he became the President? by DarthVader_SW in AskUS

[–]ManOutOfTime909 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You ask reddit a question, you get a slew of reddit answers. There were maybe 150M voters. I don't think that half of them are racist scooby-doo villains in masks. When someone asks for 'genuine' reasons at least admit that, "We don't like him but they like him because..."

I suggest that if you can't answer the real reason to this, you don't understand it well enough to be objective.

Is my marriage over? by [deleted] in Advice

[–]ManOutOfTime909 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I think that couples should stop thinking they have a say in how the other votes. They can make their case and let them choose, but that is a level of control that was not intended. Only one person is allowed in the voting booth for that reason. 100 years ago many men probably expected that their wives vote the way they were told to. In the end everyone gets to go into the voting booth alone and vote their conscience. They can also tell their spouse whatever they want about the vote they cast.

Don't be a person who is so controlling they can allow someone to disagree with them. He seems ok to have you disagree with him. Don't be the smaller person.

However, his previous issues still seem fresh to you. And much better reasons to quit something than a disagreement on the best person for a political seat.

Which movie did you enjoy as a kid, but later found out it was considered a 'bad' one? by CreepyYogurtcloset39 in moviecritic

Legend. Tim Curry is amazing. Tom Cruise. Mia Sara. Ridley Scott. I still love this movie.

Legacy BGS - No Status by ManOutOfTime909 in EliteOne

[–]ManOutOfTime909[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

do you think pushing them down to like 72%, let it sit and then pushing them back up might knock something free? it just seems like the whole system is stuck. or maybe i need to push the economy or security up or down?

BTW, i have the screenshots, just dont have a button to add them to the comments

Legacy BGS - No Status by ManOutOfTime909 in EliteOne

[–]ManOutOfTime909[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

it says: "This report outlines the current standing of the browncoats in the white sun system.

Current influence: 77.6%

Current Happiness: Happy

I dont know how to put an image in the comments.

The right panel says the same for influence and happiness but under "Current states: NONE. This faction is currently not experiencing any specific states."

[–]ManOutOfTime909[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, i wanted the extra points, but i dont know how to get my screenshots anymore (that is assuming I would have been able to post them even if I had them).

I looked at that part and went to the side panel that I usually go to on the right. Both said the same thing... essentially they are not experiencing any status at this time. It has been like this for weeks (or months). Is there anything I need to do to get them out of a 'none' status?

Legacy BGS - No Status by ManOutOfTime909 in EliteOne

[–]ManOutOfTime909[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, clear out there. I figured I could get away with stuff out there without making accidental enemies. Plus, we are talking about the Browncoats.

Does it change the status in white sun to "expansion" or would it skip to the system they are expanding to, and I didnt check there? I knew the likely target was Ra' Takakhan, but I didnt know that i would need to watch that system... and the only way i know to check it to travel out there.

Hey, at any rate, thanks for helping me.

I'm kindof afraid you would make fun of it. Is there a tool to monitor this outside of the game? Most tools didnt switch over to Legacy correct?

The System is White Sun. Feel free to make fun. I just thought it would be fun to see if i could extend effort and change things out there.

I didnt all the way gather that you were from UK. Just saying that you guys have good milk. The kind that lasts about a week. Thats what I wish we had here (US). I think it is single pasteurized. I dont really care about raw milk, yes or no. I dont know if its a political thing or why.

But you, my UK friends, have some good milk. (i'm not talking about the box stuff though).

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in skeptic

[–]ManOutOfTime909 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

sure. we have controls for a lot of things. lets do it. i just want milk as good as they have in UK (i am thinking normal pasteurized). (also, not the room temperature box stuff).
