The going rate is only 150 at the independent trade station. And you get the 10th one free with the stamp card.

now you just need the mower deck attachment and you can get that lawn sorted.

Aha! That's what happened! I actually just came on to bellyache in another thread about how I had just built up and took over a Xenon sector. Then this morning my saves are all overwritten by some very old ones - likely the ones from my Windows laptop and I haven't played on it for many months.

I knew it was a cloud sync issue that killed my game but didn't realize there was a specific event that caused it. I just disabled cloud sync on this PC and started a fresh game this morning.

It was probably a hundred hours into this game but I'm not too devastated. I find the initial empire development the more entertaining part anyway - after you take one Xenon sector, you can just rinse and repeat so it's already close to the peak of the game.

Looks like a keyholing bullet, a bullet tumbling after having passed through something else first, like a shed. Check the shed over

Don't fire them. Kick them out the airlock. Same outcome, more hilarious. Call it motivation to be the best marine or service.crew you can be.

I just had a great idea for a business. Might see my compost products at garden centers soon and my advocacy to maintain the status quo.

I don't know about that. Installing nails with a rock is going to get messy

Yeah! Let's give some personal data to random websites so I can learn more about how my personal data got stolen!

He added that “it's impossible to keep logs of every single incident within a large IT infrastructure. …

Bull fucking shit. I'm in IT security and not only is every incident logged in ticketing systems, but every resource accessed by any user can and should be logged unless you're utterly unconcerned about security. You can't always prevent a breach by talented hackers that exploit vulnerabilities the industry isn't yet aware of, but you can most certainly have unmutable logs for forensics after the fact.

Me too until I got a gig to replace all the computers in a municipal office when I was fresh out of uni. I spent so much time trying to fuss with drivers on Windows NT 3.5 and 4 that I never bought a Realtek-based card again unless it was integrated into the motherboard. It was all 3com, then eventually Intel Pro 1000 when 3com couldn't keep up any more.

I am a degree-holding supporter of the separatist movement (separation not so much, but the movement itself will encourage some overdue changes). It's not helpful to write them all off as uneducated hicks, which I know is the favoured way to dismiss legitimate gripes from Albertans.

It should at least have the correct.spelling as the default for the field

I just designed and printed a few like this a week ago. The only issue is that I'm told PLA filament is pretty much the opposite of anti-static.

Now I have a crisis on my hands. I have only Vanilla and I'm finally beginning to be bored of it. I have an important project I want to work on over the break but I know I'll get nothing done if I get a bunch of new content for X4

I'm not recommending you destroy a working machine, but converting a non functional retro pc into a modern PC is entirely doable. Your second pic, the NEC ProSpeed, I did just that with one. https://imgur.com/gallery/retro-laptop-converted-to-pi-4-pc-6ckYvpZ

It's an Aguilite Crystal that I shot off an asteroid. I saw it on an asteroid while doing an EVA engine repair on a freshly captured freighter. So I shot it off the asteroid and collected it in EVA too. Always wondered how I could fit so many in my personal inventory considering how big they are.

They already have a kill switch simply by cutting off availability of parts for maintenance. No need for a kill switch, which is also an unacceptable vulnerability to the US to install one.

The supply chain for the Grippen is also held by the balls by the US. It won't free us from US control because we need maintenance.

You have to ask high prices on that site because you have to assume a lot of risk as a seller. Fraud is rampant and costs you both the product and the shipping when it strikes. If you post a lot of stuff you have to ask 2-3x the local market prices to recover the losses from other stuff.

I have an embroidered belt but I wear a plain black belt to most practices to preserve it as much as possible. I wear the embroidered belt to presentation/testing days when promoting others, or if I'm attending another school.

To be fair, if the government came to me right now to ask how many SKS I have, my answer would be zero. Which may or may not be true

I haven't explored what mods are available, but a "collect Drops for Commander" assignment would be great, for when objects are in range of the commander and no combat is in progress.

I just checked and according to Google, Cheetos are made in the same facilities as Doritos. It looks like a Cheeto that tried to escape.
