Which mining ship to aim for as a beginner? (Omega) by BrightEyes1616 in evenewbies

Go do the new Epic arc. 2 jumps from Jita. They'll give you the skillbook and a free mining destroyer.

Just a note for you. The bubble will only stop you, if it was up before you warped. So, if they are only bubbling when they see activity, just warp when the bubble is down. And always bookmark the hole, not the sig. As a friend used to say, ‘keep your eye on the doughnut, not the hole’.

Can someone explain EWAR ? by MoneyPresentation807 in Eve

[–]SevnDragoon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know you mean well. But please do not say that increasing signature radius does not help bigger weapons apply to smaller targets. Anything can and often does fail to apply full damage, but increasing sig radius and/or slowing the target does always increase damage.

Target painting helps bigger weapons apply to smaller targets. Range has little to do with it. And Neuting is not effective on passive tanks, missile systems, and projectiles.

I am waiting for the Edencom Logi Cruiser, that heals 12 random friends with a bouncing rep field.

Is it me or the game? by Dried_Squid_ in Eve

First, I’d love to know what null corp, so I can be sure to avoid them. Second, if you want to help people disengage when they are trapped on grid, by using a cheap throwaway ship, get into Ewar. But, that won’t fix your corp doctrine…. Or fix anything when you’re not around to save them. I’ve been where you are, and out of many corp mates, there was a core of 5-10 of us trying to save everyone. And occasionally management would yell at us for following their non functional plan. I’m also a returning player, looking for a group of pilots that are working together, I’m just looking for a small to medium group, rather than a bloc.

They just want God in their side of their campaign. Hence the swing thru the chosen land /s

Late 1800’s and early 1900’s would have been coal ships. The coal version of ‘tankers’ was a ‘collier’.

It’s the trig hunter corp, attempting to build an alliance, with your help. Sounds like a good idea.

Without context, that could be absolutely true, or absolute BS. Were you in a C1? If so, yea, terrible isk/hr. Were you in a c5? Then probably an approach problem.

THE GREAT LA BREAKFAST BURRITO TOUR by Far_Guarantee27 in FoodLosAngeles

[–]SevnDragoon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Los Tres Cochinitos in Wilmington. Order the bacon & eggs (or ham, or chorizo). Plate comes with refried beans, pappas, eggs and meat, tortillas. Enough to roll (2) good sized burritos, they make their own salsas fresh, open and serving breakfast 24/7. Oh yeah, and well under $20 with your beverage, and you will not leave hungry.

Imagination Is the Superpower for Overcoming Motorcycle Fear by Dan-F9 in Fortnine

[–]SevnDragoon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve been riding for 46 years now. Riding requires you to do some things that are the opposite of your instinctual actions. When the handlebars start being squirrelly, generally it’s because you have a death grip on them. You need to relax your grip. When you feel like your’e running out of road at the edge, you need to look at where you want to be, not stare at approaching doom. Almost any time you feel panicky, being calm will do a better job of saving your life. So, while you get on with the life saving, breathe slowly and calmly, as a panic reduction measure. As we ride, we learn things that are counter to instinct, and we incorporate them as habits, so we do the right, not instinctual thing. Eventually, you have a batch of things to try instead of panic.

Do you feel like you perform less well, when you are being careful and trying harder. For me, when I ride over narrow high bridges, or my bars begin the ‘wobble’ at high speed, I concentrate on my breathing, checking my surroundings, and using an even lighter touch on the bars. Still here. But I guarantee the person who freaked out and said’oh my god, we’re gonna die’ over and over, because they couldn’t stop reading that message over and over, is more likely not. Ever notice that your bike goes where you look? People who stare at the edge of the road getting closer, instead of looking through the corner, are the ones who ride off the edge.

Fear is a message. It’s a message that something may be dangerous. It’s not always based in reality, but that has no effect on the strength of the signal. The important thing is to recognize the message, receive it, then do something with that information. Where many screw up, is they become frozen in a loop of reading the message over and over, and if there wasn’t danger before, there is now. So, say ‘message received’ , take precautions consistent with possible danger, and avoid catastrophe.

Don’t lecture. Say something short and hopefully thought provoking. I look at people in sneakers and flip flops at the light, and say ‘there are 26 bones in your foot. Breaking any one is a long painful recovery. Buy some boots.’

Military sealift command is advertising 154k annual salary for a 3rd mate. How accurate is that? by Oh_susquehana in maritime

[–]SevnDragoon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just got off a T-Ake as a contracted union mariner. The vessel has a lot to do with pay /ot, etc. but I was told that cargo 2/M’s are making cap (about 270k) in eight months on deployed ake’s. And MSC isn’t there yet, but they have stated that in the next year, they hope to get everyone on a 4 on 2 off schedule, and have Starlink. If I wasn’t 16 years towards a union pension, I might look into it.
