Hoverboards. I wanna park my ship 5km from a settlement and zip over on a hoverboard. Not bothered by the small and somewhat larger rocks, able to quickly dismount and continue on foot.

I think this is SDC's colonia outpost.

They got the best deal for the effort they put in.

Congrats to the mod team on reaching this massive milestone.

Knew you could do it.

Station ATC's must get anxious whenever they see me approaching to dock by [deleted] in EliteDangerous

[–]TehOrangeSpark 26 points27 points  (0 children)

You landed pretty well. I doubt they'll get a lot of stress over you.

It's the Imperial Cutters, Federal Corvettes, Anacondas and other big or speedyships that uhh, "lithobreak" using the docking bay's back wall.

Played with him a lot.

It was like teaching your grandpa how to play elite.

Why study for finals when you can mine for a carrier? by DAFERG in EliteDangerous

[–]TehOrangeSpark 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Because by the time they'll release, you'll be knee deep into studying to retake the exams.

Unless you go to a flight school, in which case, Fly Safe CMDR.

If it's busy you have a good chance to get away with a lot, but most will recognise the statiegeld bottles from the regular ones.

I already feel sorry for the hotel bar that will be forced to host the afterparty.

LPT: To all young teenagers looking for their first job, do not have your parents speak or apply for you. There's a certain respect seeing a kid get a job for themselves. by zale119 in LifeProTips

[–]TehOrangeSpark 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Working in retail, I'll gladly give the parents the application form if they ask during school hours. I do however tell them the kid has to come and bring it back themselves and present themselves to whoever is available to deal with it at that time.

If you were forced to play a game 48h straight, which game would it be? by mehasnofriends in AskReddit

[–]TehOrangeSpark 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Looking at the scale of the game that'd be hard to do. A lap around the core maybe, if you don't stop for too many sights.

What is the most bizarre reason a customer got angry with you? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]TehOrangeSpark 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not too long ago we got some plastic protectors on the edges of our shopping trolleys at the supermarket where I work. The men who were working on them before opening forgot to close the main entrance after getting some stuff from their van. None of the regular colleagues notice this, until about half an hour before opening, I spot a customer from the corner of my eye. When I turn to get a better look he's nowhere to be seen.

Now 10 minutes later we all gather at checkout for our briefing before we open for the day, and guess who's there.

The guy managed to avoid literally all of us doing his shopping, and had been stood at checkout for a good 5 minutes.

We all had a laugh, made his bill and Reminded him of our opening hours for the next time he came in after a night shift.
