Incoming Rant 🙃
You've been warned.
I'm back after taking a break for a few months. Spent the afternoon getting everything set up again. Redid my exploration route.
And what happens?
The first target I picked features yet another variation of a exploration related bug I wasn't aware of yet.
Nice.

Different universe, but there's no escaping the Pink Gas Giants! ✨ It was quite the pleasant surprise when this was the first gas giant I encountered after unlocking space travel.

Due to 'The Expanse: Osiris Reborn' -> 'wanna test out Owlcat Games games' -> 'Rogue Trader looks interesting...' - I started listening to WH40k audiobooks.
And I'm so happy because I found a whole new rabbit hole to dive into, but I'm also scared because the only thing I do know about WH40k: 💰💰💰

Sometimes all it takes is a single screenshot. 🥰
I'll admit, the Corsair wasn't really speaking to me in terms of design. (don't @ me)
But somehow... this angle with the colour and kit?? Yeah, somehow this does it for me and I don't even know why exactly. Good to know, she can grow on me after all~

Today on "You take a break from Elite and get reminded of it in the most absurd way possible":
Was reading about different negotiation models/tactics. At one point I suddenly thought 'Oh sweet, I heard that before! Sounds like that one Tourist Beacon about the Sirius Convention.'
Brain, c'mon, why.

If only this would be enforced, sigh.
For years now I've had a spreadsheet to convert ingame currencies to euros to actual purchase costs.
Every time I type in "prices" I wonder how tf this became necessary and then decide against the purchase.

Another POI I long wanted to visit:
The DSSA Explorer's Bar & Grill at Arms End.
This one was on my list since the DSSA's original deployment.
Sad news though: it will likely decommission in about a year. But for now, thank you for you service! o7

Suddenly had 'unavailable items' on my Steam wishlist & my owned games number was down.
Turns out there are new-ish age rating regulations in my country. Protecting me from buying such dangerous games like

Papo & Yo and Shelter?
These regulations are not it, seriously...

Ohh... When did the galactic plane lose its detail when viewed from the edge and became a single white blob? 😭
Went through a few graphic settings because I adjusted them recently but nothing seems to change it back... Does anyone know something?

Gotta say, I'm a bit proud of everyone. Just a few days ago we weren't sure if we could clear even one counterstrike system - and now we're probably managing all of them. 💖

Still sorting through & cleaning up old drives - came across a ton of AMVs from the late 2000s/early 2010s. Looking them up on YouTube really hits hard: Most of them don't exist anymore. Unsurprisingly, I guess.
Hope some of the creators now edit professionally, there was so much talent.

Do you still call it 'solar eclipse' if it's another star that's doing the eclipsing?
In any case... three suns in the sky always remind me of the 'Remembrance of Earth's Past' book series and now I want to read/listen to it again.

Having issues with pictures saved from within Elite looking dark. Image on the left is a F10 saved one. The right is a camera grab of my tv screen.
Any suggestions? Didn’t used to do this and the only thing updated is Elite itself.

I'm off to finishing the Codex - Original Canonn Challenge first, then exobiology.
Carrier is coming with me, as thanks to the change in the exploration data bonus, I don't see a reason anymore to keep the data on me forever.
