Was für eine geile Aktion... Wenn Homeworld 3 noch da ist halte ich gerne die Hand hoch 🙃

[–] Asetru@feddit.org 6 points 16 hours ago (1 children)

The pain is still real.

Being right doesn't make it appropriate. The context of a message is important and having such a statement about such a person in such a situation met with a comment like that is ridiculous.

[–] Asetru@feddit.org 4 points 3 days ago

The ridiculousness of your comment was kind of my point.

Either Alien (Ian Holm as Ash), Aliens (Lance Henriksen as Bishop) or maybe Terminator (Arnold Schwarzenegger as the Terminator). Just for the big reveal of "he's a machine", with all the muppets being like "oh woooow, that's insane, we literally couldn't tell him apart from us!"

Greta: "what about no longer killing the planet? Or children, for that matter?"

Jaybone: "Yeah, but maybe you could first wear something I consider appropriate? Then we can talk."

That's anarchy? Wow, that's dumb. They should not just collectively decide something. They should write down what they decided so that people who couldn't attend or that later come from outside the community know what has been decided. Or, even better, if I know I can't participate in the decision (or don't want to) I should be able to pass my voice to somebody who's there who I trust. Or, even better, just in case that person spontaneously gets sick or dies, to a group of people. Maybe, to get some consistency with people getting to know the details of the decision making process and the prior decisions, only redistribute these stand in votes every few years or so. Just to get the anarchy organised a bit.

Theoretisch schon. Aber in echt ja erst wenn jemand echt Rücklagen bildet für den Fall, dass so ein Ding hochgeht.

Was verantwortungsvolle Staaten ja bestimmt tun, oder?

Oder?

DS9 is waaaay better than voyager.

That's debatable. Both had their flaws, but I really preferred Voyager's idea of "dang, it's going to take us decades to get home and we're in uncharted territory, so let's explore the hell out of our way back" over DS9's "were sitting at the galaxy's newly discovered traffic junction and our new enemies look like anything, so our major conflict is that anybody could be a traitor and our utopia is turned upside down into a surveillance state".

Treason, like beauty, is in the eye of the beholder

 

Ich weiß, ich weiß... Die Winterreifen. Die Heizung. Die Batterie, die bei den Temperaturen ein wenig weniger aufnimmt. Alles in Summe. Vielleicht will ich bei dem miesen Wetter und der Dunkelheit auch schneller zu Hause sein.

Das dachte ich mir alles schon. Kennt man ja. Hab mir deswegen auch die letzten Wochen nichts dabei gedacht.

Und was war's tatsächlich? Bremse hinten fest. Und zum Schluss so arg, dass ich as erst gemerkt habe, als nach einer längeren Fahrt die Felge hinten so heiß war, dass man die kaum anfassen konnte. Schrauber hat hinten die komplette Bremse tauschen müssen weil die durch die Hitze komplett im Eimer war.

Yay.

Schön: während die Karre in der Werkstatt war gab's einen elektrischen als Leihwagen. Man stellt sich langsam auf uns ein. Daumen hoch dafür.

 

So, the core box has been shipped to known Star Wars Armada content creators, it seems, so the first gameplay reports are dropping, which is nice to see and should help to decide if the game's for you...

Tbh, especially the ship movement seems odd to me. Too many steps involved to get a ship to its next position. The emphasis on story and interaction beyond fighting on the other hand seems very star trek-ish and at first glance well done.

Link Collection for all Things X-Wing TMG (ffg-forum-archive.entropicdreams.com)
 

So, there's a page with lots of links for various X-Wing TMG resources... But it's hosted on the FFG forums and with the game being discontinued and having been transferred from FFG to AMG literal years ago, I thought I'd just copy them here. This is, for now, just the copy-pasted link collection. I'll go through them to remove stuff that's no longer online and maybe add stuff I found elsewhere, but right now I'd just like to keep MidWestScrub's links alive in case FFG decides to finally pull the plug on the forum.

This is meant to be an addition to the excellent post @MajorJuggler has kept updated over the years. For that 1.0 thread, click here.

It shows the format, the number of people, what lists they were flying, and the number of wins and MOV (Margin of Victory). All data is voluntarily submitted, so there may be some holes in the information depending on how in depth the submission was.

Pink Brain Matter. This is a recently released site that analyzes data from List Fortress. It can tell you the percentage of Rebel lists in major tournaments since the recent points change, and the percentage of those lists that took certain pilots, etc.

Probability Calculator. This will allow you to enter in a ton of variables for numerous different attacks to see expected damage under various circumstances. For those of us who are math impaired, it's a vital tool.

Yeah, this really helped me to even understand what different editions and factions were and how that's all supposed to work.

VWs Gewinn (feddit.org)
 

Keine Ahnung, ob das in die community hier passt, sonst gerne löschen...

Ich hab einfach mal die VW Finanzen angeschaut... 23 war ein Rekordjahr, sowohl was Umsatz (>322 milliarden Euro) als auch was Gewinn (>16 milliarden Euro) angeht. Überhaupt gab es in den letzten 10 Jahren nur ein Jahr in dem der Konzern Verluste gemacht hat - '15, als über 16 milliarden Euro für den Dieselskandal zurückgestellt wurden. Zahlen hier: https://eulerpool.com/aktie/Volkswagen-Aktie-DE0007664039/Umsatz

Kann mir mal einer erklären als ob ich 5 wäre, wo gerade diese Lesart herkommt, dass der Konzern den Bach runter geht und dringend Werke schließen und Löhne kürzen muss?

 

Title pretty much says it.

I regularly draw stuff on a computer and always had convertible laptops, first to take notes and later to be able to draw stuff. I started with a Lifebook T3010, went on to get a Thinkpad X60 tablet, later an X220t. When I needed to replace that, I got a Dell XPS which I hated with a passion due to its lousy digitiser, which was an AES pen instead of the tech they used in previous generations. Out of my frustration, I got a wacom cintiq tablet display, which is, however, clumsy and over the years the connector (which really isn't made to be used in non-office environments) started acting out, so I started to look for a convertible again. However, I'm having a hard time finding EMR convertibles. Does anyone have a good recommendation for a convertible with decent Linux support that has a built-in EMR panel? I'm already thinking about getting an older Thinkpad X2x0t off of ebay, but it's hard to find a good deal on one it seems...
