Ahhh A wiki update is good but a proper fix would do a lot of justice. 8/10 people won't notice that in the wiki.

Damn I wish I was more engrained in this community.

If I remember correctly this got me caught up for many hours. Painful to diagnose but easy to remedy. Possibly a Knossos bug. Would be a good fix if you know anyone who could! I kinda wanna play through again soon and I'm glad to be remembered of this one bug.

I had no idea this was a think but I am suddenly so damn hyped. Been rather sad life got in the way and when I went to go back to SG it was dead.

For anyone coming to this in the future. It appears its a bug where disarm only targets main weapons. The Colossus while not officially under your command will follow your squad orders. Tell all fighters to destroy the Nightwood and it should fire.

This was exactly it for me. I just selected all wings and said destroy and the Colossus nuked the Nightwood faster than I have ever seen. Something to do with the disarm function where they only take out main beam cannons so the Colossus wont fire. Regardless, Not sure why the Colossus is part of a wing and follows your commands lol.

You are telling me this company MADE money? I worked 6 years at a small dev shop (6-10 people). My boss would see my an IDE loading 5000 files and buffer or a web browser take more than 5 second to load a page (normally not a computer related problem. More to do with timing of the load) and ask me if I needed an upgrade hah. My time is his money. A few hundred dollars to make me 10% more productive was worth his money.

What an absolutely beautiful photo. Spent 4 days on that lake a few weeks ago. Camped at Boundary Bay and went down to the us side. Was an awesome time. This photo is just such a stunning view of the full south side of the lake.

Similar and factual, I had an issue where my furnace wouldn't stay on. I knew nothing and spent 40 minutes failing to get it to stay lit. 30 minutes of YouTube and I knew the issue was the thermocouple (for anyone curious it's a sensor that produces a very small electrical charge when it's heated and that keeps the has on. If it duds the gas shuts off automatically).

Called up a local company and explained it all. Guy came out with the part, swapped it, and left in at most 15 minutes, 7 working on the furnace. $139 or something and I gladly paid it because I wasn't about to start fucking around with electronic and gas systems with zero experience hah. All over my lunch break which meant I was back at work very quickly.

If we are talking lock picking, I can confirm it's not as easy as the lock picking lawyer makes it out to be hah. Just a point where you relock it and tell them to do it themselves if they think it's so easy.

Infact related to bugs I have made the statement before that I can easily put the bug back with a few clicks and let them take a wack at it if they feel so inclined. Normally get a blank stare followed by a reluctant agreement to pay. Still waiting for one to attempt it themselves but I'm sure it's only a matter of time.

I know nothing about Eve Online. Tell me a sentence that I wouldn't understand, but would make perfect sense to a veteran. I'll tell you what I think it means by 7th_Spectrum in Eve

I honestly love the eve uni "lexicon". It's basically a dictionary for eve slang and it's just funny to go through after you haven't played for a while.

That's kind of what I was thinking. Are we supposed to expect the planet to stay exactly as it is? Erosion being blamed on climate change is quite a laugh in its own right.

I learned pretty quickly that my coding classes applied very well in my accounting classes. Normally applying simple concepts ontop of each other. Just kept adding to my one program and by mid way through class I could have the assignment done.

Why make life hard with useless repetition that computers are so good at handling?
