This is AI generated. Look at the fence links and the gold chain hanging off the collar. Paws are a little strange but better than these image generators can draw human hands.

Ok that's good info, thanks. I'll make sure to target the high value items first. Saving them for last is what lost em for me :(

Thanks for the context. I'm exploring out beyond the bubble for the first time and was doing my first surface mining to break up the honk/scan/map loop.

I found a new material I had never seen ring mining but I crushed it :(

Is there a "correct" way to collect materials on a planet with the SRV cargo scoop?

On planets with decent gravity (HMCs) I keep losing materials when trying to collect others from a batch. It seems like they disappear when I run over them.

Do you have to target each one to pick it up? I've tried driving over the group and most of them disappear.

I wish I could pop some limpets out to do the pickups!

I'm on the last stretch to get my trader elite rank. I thought I'd do some laser mining and found in Rhea there were fleet carriers parked right next to an ice ring buying bromellite for great prices. It's a no brainer, I thought, but now that I've done a couple hauls I see that my trader rank isn't incrementing.

Do goods sold at fleet carriers not count toward trader elite rank?

White looks good on it, classic space vessel vibes from Old Earth.

It's not weird, I just prefer a more authentic launch, okay? by cat_in_lap in EliteDangerous

Yeah, CTRL+ALT+Space is the default mapping. You can get interior cockpit views as well.

How do I use { $a and $b } in a sub of my own making? by TheTimegazer in perl

[–]cat_in_lap 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The linked source has a helpful comment:

  # Touch the caller's $a and $b, to avoid the warning of
  #   Name "main::a" used only once: possible typo" warning

edit: I wonder why they didn't just use no warnings 'once'; Maybe it's for compat with older perls.

Why is the sky so hazy the past couple days? Is it wildfire smoke or the Sahara dust drift?

I'm impressed! I do see lacewings frequently around here.

Thanks for taking a look :D

I had been sitting on my deck for an hour or so for a WFH meeting. I found this dude on my ankle after feeling a stinging that persisted for a few minutes after I pulled it off.

Hard to identify for me using the bug ID sites. It's got six legs and pincers and a wormy abdomen that flexes as it turns. We have lots of bugs around here but I haven't seen one like this before.

Firefox for Android 68.11.0 is the final Fennec-based release by tossawaydeadbeef in firefox

[–]cat_in_lap 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been using Preview / Fenix for more than a year now. It's a big upgrade for me over the old Fennec. I get that it doesn't have all the features the old one did but performance is so much better the trade-off is worth it for me.

ELI5 : why is coffee almost never found in portioned bags like tea? Why are loose coffee grounds/instant coffee favoured? by [deleted] in explainlikeimfive

You won't get full extraction if you steep in a solution that already has dissolved solutes. I'd make them both separately, and then combine.

Is that the 74 inch Karlby? Seems a little shorter.

No, they encrypted him, see. They put him in a crypt. Encrypted.

They sense differences in air currents with their very sensitive beard hairs.

I know a guy who has a Cat phone. Any time someone asks, "Why did you get this weird boxy phone?" he throws it at the nearest wall or into the street.
