Snow on the close by mountain tops, but I think this will be another winter without any accumulation on the ground in town.

The palm trees in my front yard look funny covered in snow anyway, lol.

Timezone o/

Coincidentally, here a lot of snow is falling from the sky too. Snow persists for a month already on the ground. I want summer!

Just the ones Rich and Ed have been in.

It's actually no doubt a very interesting story to some people, as it's a tale of bribery and manipulation. Which took a lonely Vexor nos pirate, roaming around Old Man's Star for ransom targets and kills.

To one of the most powerful Alliances in EvE and possession of my very own Nyx. Built for me, for free.

Then quitting EvE for 5 years then returning as a Taishoku and deciding to go balls deep into the fray again and reactivating the old account while keeping the new muck about Taishoku Mayaki as she is a pretty cool char.

The ultimate trick for computer hardware/software which suddenly stops working:

Unplug it for 60 seconds. Not shut it down, not reboot it, unplug it from the wall until there's zero electricity in it. Then let it cool for 60 seconds, enough so every last capacitor discharges, every last byte of RAM memory totally loses it. Unplug it and let it cool until it's just a piece of dead silicon.

Works like charm. My effin' audio controller didn't expected me to play that card, heh.

(But then I tried every stupid thing before)

In case of doubt, unplug. Teach that PC who's the hand that feeds it! Twisted

I rather like it when people at work forget about that rule then start trying to work on the board with the capacitors still jam packed with juice. They make lovely shouting sounds when they discharge into them.

I am about to ramble to no one in particularly but it's on topic!

Atm I am struggling to find motivation to play Taishoku a lot as low-sec has pretty much died for me, my usual gang has moved into nullsec and joined Fountain Core and no longer does roams around Black Rise. And right now the solo ships I want to fly in nullsec Rich will fly better as he has perfect skills for most bloody everything.

I however am fairly heavily invested into industry right now as an income source, but severely lack a source of ore other than buying it. And within Co2 most the industry chaps mine on mass for themselves in huge swarms of Rorquals. Like one guy has 6 to himself and just pumps out ore like china does steel.

So ore is hard to get as an independent and the small ballers don't produce enough ore to sate me, so I have been importing billions of compressed ore down into nullsec, which is still profitable but a pain.

I've done some maths and to get into a Rorqual on Rich it would take 42 days to train as he has no mining or Ore Industrial skills. However Taishoku if being unused is sitting on 25million Skillpoints. (A lot of them injected from big daddy Rich's isk).

I need 8,804,237 total SP invested to fly a decent Rorq which would be 200d, 16h total training time from scratch. If I include Taishoku's perfect flight of shield, engineering, navigation and drone skills I reduce the total training time to 84day 8 hours. And the total amount of skill point down to about 4 million rounded down.

Rounded down as I am to lazy to calculate the true value of that bit.

So it seems logical to me if I extract all spaceship command, gunnery and missile skills that are not Rorq helpful it should come up to well over 15 million or so skill points which should cost about 5 billion isk in extractors to extract the required 10million SP and inject them back in to have an instant Rorq pilot who can use 'Excavators'.

Then I can have two capital pilots on standby Nyx and Thanatos, or Nyx and Ninazu to jump in to save my Rorq including the Co2 support fleet as Taishoku is now the Rorq pilot. Instead of one of my already Capital capable pilots.

She can then munch rocks for me while she slowly retrains back up to be a fully functioning combat pilot once more, and should pay all the isk invested back within the week.

I shall sit on this plan, I have tried mining a lot and always failed to invest in it... But maybe something like a Rorqual would change my mind on the matter as it's better than Carrier ratting.

Just failed my digital technology exam, I guess.. Last exam I was ever going to have (thesis next) and it was so easy even but I messed up and ran short on time and panicked and ugghhh.. ****.

Although it's possible that I actually did pull that. Not the best grade, of course, but at least passed.. Here's hoping!

When you don't know the difference between there, their, and they're, you come across as being so uneducated that your viewpoint can be safely dismissed. The literate is unlikely to learn much from the illiterate.

Maybe you only think you got something worng, while it was ok. Lets hope that. Pirate

And I am using orca or retriever to mine asteroids. But its only at the times when I am lazy and dont even want to earn ISK by shooting NPCs.

No, it's definitely wrong. Whether I pass or fail comes down to how lenient the prof is going to be with my consequential errors..
