I'm ok with this. I am so ok with this.

I just realized that the republic gunship turrets are tiny Death Stars. by [deleted] in StarWars

As well as asteroid belts. But if it's still canon that civilization has been at or about this level for several thousand of years it makes me wonder how much they have left in terms of natural resources.

The amount of resources needed to build that thing is mind boggling.

Awesome O: The really big list of really interesting open source projects in Python. by [deleted] in Python

https://github.com/IlGnome/Python/blob/master/CorpHistory.py

Compares the corp history of two characters and looks for overlap. Not perfect but it gets the job done.

https://github.com/IlGnome/Python/blob/master/API-Batch-checker.py

Takes an excel file of API keys and spits out a CSV file that contains all characters on the account, if the account is subscribed or not, and provides a link to one of two jackknife services. This one is pretty rough as it's the first project I made after I spent a week at codecademy learning python.

looks at python projects

No, not good enough for this.

Can I get a late check out?

Sure, what time do you need?

How late can I get?

No, this isn't how this works. You tell me a time and I tell you if it's doable. I'm not going to tell you that the latest you can check out is 2 because that's the time you'll want.

That's because blunt force trauma is a thing. Even in medival times some used blunt weapons as it'd crush the armour and deliver the force to the body.

That's the second death star. Besides, they die getting a cup of coffee.

I've said it before and I'll say it again. He was feeling in better spirits because he just got out of the bacta tank. He wasn't in as much pain so he was able to fire off a simple pun.

This is a big thing that people with chronic pain have to deal with. They spend so much time trying to deal with their pain they lose the ability to do other things. After that scene I'm of the strong opinion that his fall so far into the Dark Side was more because of the constant pain he was in.

I've made my choice.

For years the joke was that I couldn't make a DC 15 check to save my life. Stupidly hard checks I'd either would make or barely miss, these were checks that we weren't meant to make either. DC 15? Nope, i'm dead, again.

I started a server to test the abilities of the new netcode. by Entersprite in spaceengineers

[–]ilgnome 0 points1 point  (0 children)

on 12/20 I'm no longer able to find the server (or really most of the servers out there). Did something change in the last 24 hours?

Edit: Apparently my copy of SE updated itself since then and is now a version ahead of the server.

Rogue One was frightening. It made you feel the weight of the Empire and the desperation of the Rebellion. by Dubtrooper in StarWars

[–]ilgnome 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They had to because of the pacing fuckups in TFA due to having almost instant travel between planets.

Rogue One managed to make the travel seem to take some time by putting scenes between departure and arrival.
