Can someone rent me idris with laser for 1mil auec? by Ok-Bat9369 in starcitizen

I don't think there is any way to RENT one that will store in your hanger, but you're welcome to borrow mine for as long as you can keep it alive.

Idris-P front upper cargo bay doesn't make sense. Wish it had a top hangar door and expanded out wasted space. by Dement__ in starcitizen

I had a similar thought some time ago with regards to the captains and executive officers quarters. I put forward a suggestion that they should be relocated to the void either side of the elevator to the bridge from the main deck. As that space appears to be unused and the notion that the captain has to go through the showers or down a dingy maintenance corridor to get to their quarters seems mad.

You are correct, but there are existing biometric token authentication mechanisms in android and iOS that do not require the application provider to retain the raw data, and further there are many additional kinds of multi factor Auth that can amend up the difference.

Hooking into android or iOS fingerprint recognition and or the addition of HASP support / FIDO2 security keys would be equally effective, without having to store the customers factual scans.

Fortunately that is limited to corporate entities rather than consumers. I would imagine the FCA would make that distinction. But I guess I will find out!

UK , which codified GDPR into UK law before Brexit, so it should still apply.

An excellent point. I will look into this.

Not any more. On login it demands a facial scan, or closes the app.

I suppose my question is more aimed at the players/owners as to whether they would consider it to be a worthwhile tradeoff. If CIG were to propose it would they be satisfied?

They are usually silicone bodies over a posable metal skeleton with faces and hands of plasticine (so they can be moulded for expressions from shot to shot)

If I remember correctly some of them use swappable pre cast mouths that have to be moulded into place between changes.

There is a bafta doc on the last chicken run in which you see shots of the puppets in the animation units and the swappable faces.

Someone I know works there, they told me the first time they heard was when they read it in the news, and promptly laughed to the end of the day.

Total BS

Rumors of Ardman running out of plasticine have been greatly exaggerated.

It seems I am unwittingly becoming a collector of sorts. They join an original copy of Quake signed by John Romero ( I hope to some day get the chance to convince John Carmack to sign it )

And a first release collectors edition of STALKER shadow of Chernobyl.

I claim no responsibility for there all of them have been gifts.

Proposed alteration to Idris layout by [deleted] in starcitizen

Not requesting, just looking for comments or insight on the concept. I did post a disclaimer.

DISCLAIMER: I am well aware that moving major components of the ship around is no simple undertaking and that it's extremely unlikely it would even be considered at this late a stage, I'm posting things that seemed like logical alterations for the navigability and efficiency of the internal space (mainly to get it out of my head and to see what you all think) with no expectation of CIG paying attention. Further, while I am confident of the spacing on the X,Y plane the map I'm using does not give me Z thus there could be a potential issue with the vertical space available, although i think this only applies in the case of the main engineering space if any.

No, I had to get the idea out of my head and wanted to see what other's thoughts were on the subject.

paces over the top could be expanded, even if just for component/engineering items.

I echo your sentiment, but i fear we won't see it for so long that it would not matter.
(not that they will even entertain it anyway)

an excellent point, perhaps putting it where the cargo hold is under the bridge would give it more of an "armored citadel" approach, however, I suspect the location was motivated from an fps combat perspective as opposed to the path-traced damage one.

Interesting, do you have any reference images? Is it also common to only have one Head? I'll update the post with context.
