I appreciate the message, but that's a deep sea worm... and looks like it was designed by H R Giger. :lol:

Anyone know what this ship is? Saw it sailing into Les Sables d'Olonne, in western France. . First time I ever saw a military ship, and I would've loved getting closer to it.

Tried to match it against active vessel classes of France as listed on Wikipedia but without a clear match.

I see no obvious weapons, maybe it's a research or ELINT ship from another European navy?

That's one way of getting interesting in space, I guess...

Speaking of which, Space Jam's website is still online.

A couple of days ago, in E:

Was engaged in some exploration/resource searching when I noticed the crater rim's shadow creeping up during sunset. Had way too much fun "riding the wave" for far longer than I would care to admit.

So just got my laptop computer back from the repair shop.

Lesson learned: do not spill wine on your keyboard!

I was astonished to find that Stolichnaya vodka fixes sticky keys very nicely.

It was a really good party.

In the USAF this type of ship is called a 'target'.

But how else would I run Windows apps?

New wine belongs on new keyboards! ...or something like that, wasn't it? :shifty:

Mine bravely weathered spillages, but a while ago the lower part of the keyboard stopped responding . (probably unrelated) So I'm using a USB keyboard instead, which is something I did often anyway as it had a numpad (apparently a whole keyboard is cheaper than one of those usb numpads, for reasons unclear)

Squeeeeeeeeee!
Star Trek TOS is on Netflix now! :woohoo:

Huh?
What's this Netflix thing, and why people are waiting for shows to get released on it instead of having them downloaded back in the last decade or something?

Netflix is a way of getting shows over the Internet without the MPAA siccing the government on you.

I'm Swiss, so it wouldn't actually be illegal for me to download movies...

Netflix quite simply manages to be more convenient, and somewhat safer.

Uh, why? It's a TV show - it was broadcast for everyone to see, so it can't be illegal to share a copy.

:lol:

Actually, sharing a VHS recording would still be illegal in Switzerland (just as uploading a movie is).

 

[Artlav]

:lol:

But seriously, how do they argue for it being illegal to share something that is free anyway?
