  1. There are a lot of symptoms to the problems we are having on the forum, @AlamoVampire. It can sometimes manifest itself in the way you describe, and sometimes when you finally get it working you can see you've posted the same thing multiple times (once for each refresh). Although that doesn't seem to have happened this time, so not always. Other people experience other problems, but they are most likely all linked to the same root cause.
  2. "Stuff has been removed" But also, I really did have to remove some political stuff in line with the forum rules. Sorry guys, this isn't the place to air your concerns about various policies.

  7. Only if you are familiar with those units. I grew up with imperial and have since been forced to move over to metric. With that background I can honestly say that, for the average layman, there is no inherent benefit of the imperial system when it comes to visualisation of size, volume or distance. Its sole advantage is that millions of people in the US are familiar with it. If those same people had to move over to metric, there would be a lot of grumbling and complaining, possibly a civil war or two, but after a few years, everyone would get used to the new system and would be just as good at estimating 10 m as they are at guessing 12 ft.
  8. Content The vapour trail that forms around you when camping at high altitude.
  9. Water Closet The cupboard where bottled drinking water is kept.
  10. Rocket A very small rock
  11. Counterproductive Someone who can add things together very quickly.
  12. Ooh, Evil Kenlie could write about the future? https://media.tenor.com/FdjfDJ7l9d8AAAAM/doctor-who-time.gif
  13. In Portugal, Starlink costs 40 euro per month, which is currently the equivalent of $42 US, including sales tax. In Sweden, it's more like $50. They have regional pricing, so they'll charge whatever they are able to get in the local market. But I can't see them being willing to lose money on their plans, so the US ones must be highly profitable, at least until some competition is available.

  15. I think I smell politics. Yes. I smell politics. Let's not, please.
  16. Maybe we should focus a little bit more on KSA and a little less on hardware/OS preferences. Amiga was the best tho
  17. I don't know why we use "mil" instead of km either. But at least it's metric, ish
  18. Gøy! Shall we call that the Nuke scale? I can see it now:
  19. An interesting discussion on the Imperial Banana for Reference vs the Metric Banana for Scale.
  20. My NDAs have all been with Squad or Take-Two Interactive Software Inc. I would be surprised if any of the developers' NDAs are different.
