It sucks and hurts like hell, but was okay. She turned mostly blind overnight, like from one day to the other she could barely see and mostly moved by whiskers and brightness/darkness.Of course this was right before christmas eve, when all the vets are on holiday. She still demanded her food (and ate it, allthough a bit more messy). I skipped new years eve to care about here, because getting blinded and then getting blasted away with the absolute bullshit our country and people do at new years eve I thought would have scared here to death. She was surprisingly calm that night, and snuggled a lot while the rest of the city tried to one-up each other with the biggest bomb they could find.

Three days later - for the very first time in her life - she was't there in the morning to get some food with my other cat. Found her sitting in a corner of a room, without motion, just slow breathing. No sound, no whip of the tail. When I touched her, she did everything she could to walk away into the next corner she could find by her whiskers.

Luckily that day the Vet was open again, and after some quick tests, it was pretty clear that her kidneys have given up, and we put her to rest. Of course I cried like the big baby that I am, but she had 13 good years, and (as far as I can tell) only one really bad day.

Overall I'm kinda glad it went that fast, because I cried a lot giving food to a blind cat, that cries because it doesn't understand why it suddenly can no longer see.

So sorry for your loss.... That's a real tear jerking story.

https://support.robertsspaceindustries.com/hc/en-us/articles/360012619613-In-Game-Character-Issues

KNOWN ISSUES

We are currently aware of and tracking a few different issues that may occur that can have one or more of the following symptoms occur during play:

Your character avatar turns into a small, white, floating ball.
Your character has their arm permanently raised above their head.
Your character's head is missing.
The mobiGlas is missing from your character entirely; the hotkey to pull it up does nothing.
Your character has become invisible.
An object gets stuck in your character (such as boxes stuck in hands or feet)
You become unable to interact with most things in game while in this state.

POTENTIAL WORK AROUNDS:
If your character has encountered any of these issues listed above, there have been some reports from players that entering character customization and changing your character's gender, appearance, and attributes a few times may correct these issues.

To avoid an object getting stuck to your character, be certain to drop any items you may currently be holding before picking up another.

I am a long term lurker here but I just wanted to send my condolences and let you know that the exact same thing happened to my sweet little tabby girl about 2 years ago. She went blind overnight and was walking around the house using her whispers alone. We had to put her down as well and I cried like a baby. She was only 7... it wasn’t fair and I still miss her.

I especially feel bad because while I was never ever mean to her, we have a lot of animals and she was always the quiet one without much personality so I never gave her as much attention as her siblings. 😢😢😢

- lando turning into a massive sleezeball before our very eyes

- drugs and alcohol being left openly on display across developers desks during video segments

- the rental mansion that test squadron partied in for some reason. Or maybe that was a fever dream

- special edition Porsche ! And Alpina bmw Parked in the cig parking lot

There's summaries all over the place but you'll have to sift through page after page of slapfighting. FYAD got temporarily closed because they were doing some insanely creepy stalking of trans goons and posting a bunch of deeply transphobic stuff because "irony" and the idea was they were gonna be able to come back but they'd be policed a little bit more strictly and uhhh they couldn't just take the L and started doing a bunch of "haha I'm a nazi it's funny get it" poo poo and got themselves nuked.

Seems like kidney failure is a bit of an issue with cats. We lost one of ours in the summer to it. Wife wanted to do everything possible to keep it alive (it was "her" cat) and we were doing infusions every day and tests, but in the end it became clear we were just delaying the inevitable and causing the cat more pain.

As an aside, went to our vet to give a new year present and in return she offered us a stray that she had taken in. A beautiful ginger and white siberian. Its huuuge! Like Maine Coon sized.

Don't have a photo to hand, but its a bit like this, but more ginger.

I need sources for these


- one was an RTV IIRC many years ago...the live thing they did. IIRC it was Lando and Tyler? It was filmed next to the place where they did the ATVs, and the camera had a look into Sandi's office. Of course nothing strange happened there....Sandi sat at her computer and...worked? But you could see how she suddenly opened up the livestream, realized she's on camera in the background, and then walked (as much out of frame as possible) to them, whispered something to them, and they changed the camera angle. It wasn't a real fuckup, just funny, because you saw other people working at their desks. But Sandi didn't like it.

- the other one was a panel on a CitCon, where Tony Z started talking an never stopped, and Chris next to him had trouble keeping his head up and his eyes open. You know when you are super tired and desperately try to stay awake, and everytime your head sinks you immidiately wake up with a "I WAS TOTALLY PAYING ATTENTION" stare.

From a strategic standpoint, why did the make Squadron 42? Isn't the team already understaffed, so splitting the work among two big projects doesn't seem like the right move

:reddit: SQ42 is a lot simpler than SC, so easier to do that first and use the money generated to complete SC which will take far longer.
