Re: Elite: Dangerous - Design Decision Forum
Urban dictionary has this: "I got the cliffnotes." noun. Used to brush people off during a potentially long-winded story or explanation of current events. When someone is talking or telling you a story and you don't want to hear it, say "Thanks but I have the cliffnotes," to shut...

Forget not the Raspberry Pi (I'm sure DB hasn't

Re: Elite: Dangerous - Design Decision Forum
You could take that idea a little further and say that in emergency situations you could use some of your normal drive juice to 'fast charge' the HJ, and possibly incur damage in doing so.

Re: Names of long numbers
My old Jaguar Sovereign (1993) had a switch on the dash which let me switch between the two systems for the digital readout. The readout could itself be switched between KPH (or MPH in imperial),Km/Litre instant (MPG instant), Km/L Average (MPG average) and Range Km (Range Miles). As for the numbers...

Re: Space Marines 'trademarked' by Games Workshop?!
So these cretins have permission to use the term 'Marine' then in association with armed fighters. Not a fight they want or would win that. I would imagine that if brought to the attention of MOD here in the UK it might prove interesting ...

Re: Do you love old racing cars?
I'll ask my buddy what series he raced/s in over there. He (sometimes) lives near the Atlanta circuit, but races all over in his 'Historic' race cars.

Re: Elite: Dangerous - Design Decision Forum
How do other MPG's handle in game death (I've never played one so in some ways I'm new to this)? What happens if they lose the network at a critical time?
