Funny as always.
Is number 5 uninstall the game?
You should actually like the video... there was a Beluga in it!
.. Ask for help. I am a firm believer in this.
I have been playing since launch and I still ask questions. I believe that there will be as many different answers as players which is awesome. If we all did the exact same thing the exact same way then why the hell play it? Yeah, we can all deep core mine for bazillions but ship loadouts, strategies to finding the right Yellow Egg, even down to where to sell is all up for discussion and opinion.
And as for the Cess Pit answers this is/has getting... anyone else old enough to remember BBS days? Even then, the toxicity levels were so high you could feel the face slap from across the 2400 baud phone line. Ever since there has been electrons in the universe, there have been those with fecal matter where the central nervous center is located.

I recently 'found' a similar (50 things? - something like that - you should know) youtube video in the 'recommended' list and sat through it, it was useful.
This video was funny - but the message useful, particularly the 'ask for help' bit.
Thanks, The Yamiks - you made me chuckle

Ye Exigeous did a nice job on that video!
That was the one
I may even visit your channel a little more often, you appear to be quite insane... That works for me
Great video! They still shouldn't nerf the FDL though
aahhh cmon.. it's too good & you know it =}
Yea it's great for combat. Many people wanted specialized ships like a specialized mining, combat, cargo ship etc. And Frontier tried to implement it with the restricted module slots.I think the FDL is the closest thing to a specialized ship. It does one thing very well and everything else pretty poorly. Maybe it doesn't need a nerf as much as a counter. An armoured transport that can't be mass locked by an FDL maybe? If it is nerfed, it would be just another generic ship. I feel it's more about the pilot in many cases.
2400?? Lucky. I was around when it was only 300... and through an acoustic coupler no less. You were considered skilled if you could whistle the sync tone.

hey, 2400 but with mnp 5 compression!
i didn't experiment the acoustic couplers but i indeed had a 300 baud portable modem. i carried it around with an atari portfolio and a couple of copper wires with crocodiles attached to hack into phone lines on the street. for, em, experimentation, artistic and journalistic activities.
the 2400 mnp supra modem was at home where it ran my youth group's own bbs on an atari 1040st over a single switched line, meaning we had to log in sequentially, no chat except with the sysop. that would be me until i handed over the whole thing for reasons.
contrary to your impressions, for me bbs and early internet were an incredibly nice and busy place. it was mostly weirdos and hackers which were mostly awesome and fun people. we were a generation that saw the birth of the internet and had huge expectations and hopes for it. i have to say it has gone downhill pretty fast and steep. anyway, we were so naive ... i guess we still are.

The 300/75 modem was a major milestone really, which really did open the can of worms that is now the internet. I remember the huge phone bills from those days...
Good video with great advice.
