Clifford insists on using the worlds least used streaming platform, I guess he is a fan of quality over quantity?

The Twitch streams at least usually garner a few hundred between all the streamers, even if 70% of them are there for the !raffles and giveaways only

Hell, I was testing out the OBS streaming software and happened to have WOW as the game I was practising on and I had 2 people viewing after a couple of minutes.
Poor buggers sat through me tapping on the microphone mumbling such philosophical phrases like "Is this thing on?" and that classic "What does this button do?"

Marching Powder is objectively the worst poster known. He also needs to learn how a keyboard works.

I totally buy the narrative that Lesnick was embezzling jpegs to sell on the Black Market.

I think it was Btak or so who suggested that CIG implement some (what would account to malware behaviour) check to see what other programs the citizen is running or prevent other programs running at the same time.

Maybe Mirificus can pull up the right comment :)

Its pretty standard stuff to do with cheat protection but you still have to know what cheats are out there, get their signatures and block them. You can't just block all other apps.

I have to say that me and probably 99% of the people that saw that movie totally forgot about the "hyperdrive scene" minutes after they left the theatre. People don't normally fixate on such small things and obsess over the implications.

Seriously, I didn't remember it even happened until this thread started talking about it, and I can guarantee that most viewers had the same experience.

I'm being a jerk here, I realize. I'm just a little perplexed at the SC cultist-like fixation on this scene.

Wow its almost like people experience things differently from you.

Fun thing. If I get into arguments with people about nerd poo poo, I can fight them with nerd swords that don't break. If they back down, well, maybe they should have paid attention to Yoda and do the loving training before fighting a father figure who wants to cut off their hand for good reason.

I guess they did some kind of hallelujah session for the true believers or something. Let me guess: they paid money to watch some dumb video, opened their hearts and wallets, can't shut up about all the ~progress~ that's been made

Depressingly accurate.

Edit: even their progress reel was a fetch quest attempting to highlight co-operation, but instead managed to shade all ships other than the new dropship they had for sale for the poors, while teasing the whales with a scale mockup of a limited edition and unveiling a solid train system that would be the envy of a small german town. Oh, and all the capitol ships will be getting those trains.
