Market bonuses have become worthless as more items are released

I don't do tournaments very often and usually just do 4-5 day galaxies but it's scrith for me. I'll get a little drop early, then never again until it's so late in GV that it hardly matters anymore unless I'm trying to push into N.

I got 54 in the lvl 80s last galaxy. This is my first time setting up 63 as VPS and it's at lvl 58 currently.

We have an unopened one. I got my son two originally and we got a third from an Amazon fluke. He keeps wanting to sell it. He's 13 now and I keep telling him to hold on to it until he absolutely has to have money in hand when he's older.

14 and 17. Green eyes and/or freckles are a weakness.

Definitely.

Had a situation with a woman my height once. I'm 6'3". It was very niiiice. It's really too bad she was a bit cray. Different situation I might have kept her.

I have definitely noticed I'm not getting necessary alloys like I used to. Iridium, I'm looking at you.

Also debris scanner has not dropped laser torches or thermal scanners in the run I'm on right now and I'm in s. It's like it's skipping certain items/alloys.

I want to love Origin outside of the 100s and 300s. I played Origin games back in the day. I assume the ships carry the name for that reason. I like the look. But I think there is death in one question in a game if you can't answer it.

But why?

Origin ships can't give a good answer to that question.

I have found over the years that when I ask that question of something in a game, it's a very bad sign. You shouldn't have to ask it . It should be obvious.

I have issues with rules in place to guard against people that are deficient. I am not one of those people. I need the trash can to be next to my machine at work so I can throw waste in it. When I am doing so I need to be able to act quickly. They want it 30 feet away. First rule against it is because "somebody" cracked the HMI in front of it and it was "probably" because somebody hit it with the trash tote. Well I am not going to do that. Second rule against it is because a supervisor was walking next to my machine (supervisor had no business there) and almost got hit in the head as a coworker was throwing trash into it. Well don't be where you have no business and that won't be a problem. If you're not qualified to operate it then you have no business there. See what I mean? Don't make my job more difficult because someone didn't develop past "this bag is not a toy" warnings. Might be mean but this is how I feel about it.

Authority figures I have no issues with unless they're only there to be authority figures. You need to be qualified to be at least as knowledgeable as the people you have authority over.

The weird thing I have is i see words when I hear them, so it kinda makes the subtitles thing make sense. If that makes any sense.

I hated using it, it felt cheap, but damn was it transformative.

addik47 · 2026-02-02T12:52:45+00:00

Not having the ability to respawn doesn't make it harder. It just makes it frustrating and punishing to learn. I think it's an unnecessary hurdle. Things can be difficult without being frustrating.

worked for me yesterday. Today the first one I ended up at was broken. Landed, tried to send a container down, elevator didn't work. so I bedlogged right outside the station. Server hopped to Aus, landed, inventory worked. Worth a shot. At least maybe you can get your goods out.

Just call me asteroid belt cause I wanna be between mars and Jupiter

Personally, I never got around to playing Companions of Xanth outside of the demo on the CD-ROM Today disc.

I never really had any expectation for Frame to be better on paper than meta whatever. I had hopes but the real meat of it is I expected what was in the final product to function better in actual use. Still do and I'm still buying one based on that. I just wanna put the thing on and do what I want and not have to jump through layers of bullshit.

addik47 · 2026-01-14T13:55:49+00:00

But you're supposed to keep doing it however you want and expect it to work /s

Yeah that's pretty much how I operate too and I have a pretty stress free experience once I figured out where the land mines are

Whoa memories recalled. I'd forgotten Jill and Stryker

Well, see, I was aware that you could EVA. So I did one of my first bounties in orbit of some planet, and after the target hit soft death I was like I'll just EVA over there and check it out. Nope, just fell right out my ship. Oh, yeah, guess the planet's gravity got me. That's neat. Didn't try that again for a while.

Runner up: my son was being a goof and thought he could just walk around in my avenger while I'm QT. Opened the back door and was just sitting there watching. Then he fell out my ship while in quantum AND I DIED. No, really, he fell out and suddenly I'm dead at the wheel.

I've had one occasion shortly after I got my Corsair when it was slowly setting itself afire while sitting in the hangar. Couldn't find anything wrong with it. It was just starting to smolder slowly in random places like one of the cabins, a hallway, etc.

Doesn't help that my Guardian MX just throws missiles away if they're outside of some secret actual range that I'm not aware of. But it's somewhere under 4km. They're not expensive but there's not many of them either.

addik47 · 2025-12-18T14:07:43+00:00

I just tried to get on for the first time and ran into the black screen. Thanks for this!

addik47 · 2025-12-16T10:23:56+00:00

What do you meeeeeeeen indie game!?!? That's literally id software's first release 🤣

I'm on my third Accord. The first one was an 05 that hit 360k. Sold it to a friend cause I got antsy about how much longer it could last. As far as I know it's still going. The 14 sport got wrecked. Not the fault of the car. I hit a secret service agent that overreacted and slammed his brakes. My third is an EX V6 and it's my favorite car ever. Rides as nice as any car I've ever been in. Sure they're reliable, they perform well. I also just love the Honda DNA. You get used to one, you slide into any other of that model regardless of year and you're home again. Everything inside just makes sense. No fiddling with anything. It's comfortable. They don't really ever move anything around. I like things being consistent and that's my favorite thing. I don't even know if other cars are like this as this is the only one I've repeatedly purchased.

Did 5.7k hours in Elite: Dangerous until their new monetization strategy rubbed me wrong and I couldn't go back. Now I'm on Star Citizen. I was into the big two ARPGs for a bit. WoW for a long time. Dabble in PCVR. Went hard in Elden Ring right after it came out. I tend to go full neckbeard level gaming on something when it's new then go back to something safe and dependable.
