I'm much more excited about drones and the progress that has been made in such a short time. I can totally see flying cars using similar technology in the not so distant future. 3D printers have also contributed to rapid prototyping. It's really a g…

To be honest, the childhood of Anakin Skywalker was never a story I considered needing to be told either. I'm very disappointed of Stephen Colbert, who was asked the other day by George Lucas why he didn't take over the Daily Show from John Stewart.…

This has been done before, but the problem lies in getting it done safely every time. The DC-X project was just as spectacular.... and blew up too.
-
The Force is back! lol They should start shooting episodes 8 and 9 asap before Han Solo finds new ways of trying to kill himself in vintage airplanes.
-
Not sure I have a favorite scene yet. I'll have to watch it again.
-
It depends, you can't button then zip most coats. lol I will fasten my pants first as it's easier on the zipper. Silly Garibaldi.

Well, I finally saw Interstellar and overall I enjoyed it very much even though I didn't at first quite know what to expect. Emotionally the movie was all over the place, moments of sadness, hilarity, love, anger, despair and hope. No movie has had …

Very nice indeed. :-) I wonder if this will be like this in ED in the near future. Is this the trailer for a new mini series?
-
The trailer didn't really pull me in if you know what I mean. There's more interesting stuff on YouTube.
-
Hmmm.... looks like minecraft in space... only much nicer. My spider senses tell me this is yet another time sink. lol I definitely don't need another one of those. Anyone try it yet?

The content of the original Cosmos show was tailored to require as little updating as possible. Still there are so many unanswered questions left today. It's a fascinating subject matter and I enjoy it quite a bit, even though I don't even own a rea…

Spock will be missed but not forgotten!

I just upgraded my life support unit. I never really saw a need to do so until now. It all has to do with the ramping up of the overall hostility and a noticeable increase in interdictions. The complimentary LS unit that comes with your ship gives y…

I watched both the original and Neil deGrasse Tyson's version. Time well spent. :-) Brian Cox has done some mindblowing shows/lectures as well.
-
Too bad those mods are not in HD.
-
I'm itching to play ED with an Oculus Rift head set, but that isn't quite ready for prime time yet. This would add another layer of immersion but since I'm still playing with mouse and keyboard for the time being, it wouldn't work out anyway. The f…

Well, I've tried to explore a bit of ED space and it has been a rough ride. The way things are for me, I can't jump more than 100LY before I have to make a pit stop. I get interdicted left and right and it seems to me they have ramped up the difficu…
-
I'm glad they are remastering Homeworld. I bought the games back then even though I wasn't very good at them. ) I noticed the current trend to re-release old games with better visuals and audio. It's a good idea as some are true gems. I have been g…

George Lucas apologized already for Episode 7 just for good measure, so he has that side covered. We know Disney rejected his ideas, so there is hope. It will have lense flares and established young live actors. A bro-friendly hiring policy for sto…

Thanks for the information SpiritOne, I'll look into this. Hmm, plasma accelerators... 800k+ per weapon, it's going to be a while before I'll get one of those. At least I know now what's killing me. lol While doing some research on the subject matte…

I'll try, but I fear my cobra will only get me so far. I'd hate to have to part with my guided missiles. Well I got my answer, I went on a conflict zone mission and butted heads with an anaconda which was down to 25% and had her knocked down to 2% …
-
I read Red Mars a long time ago... all I remember was something about a murder mystery. Not what I was expecting and I never bothered with the other books. But that doesn't have to mean anything.
-
I will try that next, I've almost saved up enough cash to upgrade my hull to withstand a greater beating and my FSD to jump farther distances. All I have to do is find my way back to the station that has the gear I want. I upgraded to version 1.06 t…
-
I refuse to play any SM games, his games are too addictive. ;-) Finally making some good cash in ED, 85k in a one hour playing session, not bad at all. Love zapping those pirates during random interdictions too. It's all about knowing when to fight…
-
Dark Forces was awesome at the time!! It holds a special place in my heart... for a video game that is. lol
-
Another ED update today (1.05)... mostly fixing bugs underneath the hood again as far as I was able to figure out. I scratched two pirates out of the sky, racking up rewards up to 28k, minus 5k in guided missiles. I upgraded my shield generator aga…

Epic! @-) It's going to be a great year in space gaming.
-
I'm pretty good at the Rorschach inkblot tests but I'm drawing a blank here. :-/ That said, I fail at seeing 3D objects in those noisy images too.
-
Slowly but surely I'm upgrading my cobra with some effective gear. I swapped my fixed beam lasers with tracking beam lasers which helps a lot when you are struggling with mouse and keyboard during dogfights. I added a guided missile rack and am savi…

I actually enjoyed watching the LotR trilogy with the comments track on. ;-) I'll wait for the director's cut.
