Enough (Is Enough ) to be properly configured with Seamonkey/Thunderbird (and I'd presume other mail apps too).

There is a thread for that

Joining the praise, and also +1 for having RSS enabled too!

Torin Kerr the main character of the Valor and Peacekeeper series by Tanya Huff . Up to gunnery sergeant during the Valor series, and mostly mercenary/soldier of fortune in Peacekeeper.

I'd guess one of our "sweetheart" sci-fi TV series: Farscape (mentioned in most of the places as an "American-Australian television series").

I've had the dat to obj convertor script produce obj's where the polygon normals were all flipped from what i would have expected them to be but i'm not sure if it was something in the script doing that or the way my 3d app was interperating the obj model when it loaded it, just wondering if the da...

+MBP for not using The Expanse (novel series or TV series), which is the more recent example I had in mind; the "Epstein" drive is developed on Mars and advances the solar system volume where the humans spread.

+You're getting the chalice!

[...] Fair dibs. But then what about cim's multiple docking oxp? Should be the same. As long as they are aligned with the Z axis of the station, their position doesn't really matter. When the docking is triggered, only the corresponding docking box' alignment with the ship/camera (i.e., the OpenGL ...

[...] Query : IS the difficulty in allowing External Docking tied in with the dock needing to be along the Z-azis of the station? [...] A quick rant about the z-axis stuff: - in OpenGL there is no real "camera movement" - a whole OpenGL scene is always presented through a "camera&quo...

Doom (1993) and sequels? [...] #4 +MBP as had to do some extra research, when you mentioned Doom (1993) I jumped on the wikipedia page and read the "plots" for Doom and Doom II (which I'm not sure were ever present in the games themselves). I fired a local copy of Doom II, and through the...

[...] So how does this apply to the Nuit which Switeck has been writing about ? [...] Well, from what I can tell, a common denominator would be the normals being reverted (i.e. pointing inwards for the station, and outwards for the dock), I just confirmed this for the Nuit station. This is the base...

[...] Correct. If you go in slow you can stop with the dock invisible. Yes, what I was trying to say was that you either were inside the dock (with both dock's and ring walls inivisible) or inside only the ring (with the dock -- somehow -- absent from view, and the ring walls invisible). Some of th...

[...] The hole in the ring does this also and lets you see the ball when pulled through the dock. [...] That shouldn't be the case, as one should see the dock box' (sub entity?) walls. What pkhb encounters is like he never transitions into the dock box, but only inside the ring for the whole dockin...
