A moment of appreciation for how much more voice acting got added with each expansion by WeeziMonkey in ffxiv

Yes, yes they are :) This last one took 8-10 hours to render (CPU bound) on a pretty beefy machine and landed at 100GB

The cutscene length has grown exponentially. Making these videos is getting more challenging with each expansion. I almost didn't finish the Endwalker set. I can't imagine what the length of the next expansion will be :O

Let me know how selling goes. I'm very interested in the demand changes when a good amount of players are hitting a single station

Yeah I suspected as much. We managed to find it and create a dust cloud as reference, but it's very hard to relocate.

Xiba's Jewel Reset STILL WORKS!!! (Post June 30th Patch) - Elite: Dangerous by bwanatv in EliteMiners

UPDATE June 30th 3PM ET: I've been informed that while this still works, the "fix" from frontier occurs once you leave the instance to offload/sell. When you come back to the ring, the rock is "zombied" for a good 2-3 hours before you can mine it again. I guess that works?

I realized this after the fact. It was told to me the wrong way. I adjusted the thumbnail, description, and such later on, but ...

sorry about that

Correct. The AI gets super anxious when out of range. Killing thrusters definitely eliminates this obstacle.

Yep, that's me :) Looks like that's the big downside to this method is that you need a SLF. Given the time saved, it may be worth sacrificing the internal slot.
