State of the Game

it's hardly semantics. you're stating that astronaut is a title that can only be applied by recognized institutions ... Astronaut has only overlapped with that kind of definition because only a couple of military-esque institutions were involved. what happens when places all over are sending people into space.. will there be an international test? Will there be a pilots federation formed to designate those who are worthy of the title astronaut? Or is astronaut a term of achievement for reaching a place in a given manner.
 
Yup. Ender's method of arguing is to bore people into submission.

it's the internet. an argument's purpose is not to convert the other party...since that never happens. It's just to amuse yourself. talking about what defines an astronaut is a decent enough distraction from coding.

We could discuss elite, but the state of the game seems fixated on fleet carrier interiors being a disappointment or consoles never getting released and both of those topics dont seem to have anything fun to add to.

I rest my case your honour.



(Although I secretly agree with your point! ;) )
 
So were the monkeys that went up (after the dogenauts) astronauts or astroseminauts or astrosimiannauts? Pretty much where we are with more expensive monkeys tbh)

I decided on Bezcockridernauts, but that's just my opinion based on the wonderful contributions of our brethren!

I was wondering if he was annoying enough to say the famous line as they went up, and whether the others were secured out of punching reach.
 
At which point the reply would be "adding lunch rocket to your Amazon shopping list."

Cue ten minutes of yelling at it ("I'm sorry I don't know that") unplugging it and plugging it back in, asking about who has the Alexa app on their phones so they can get it connected onto the wifi again, before finally giving up.
Have you set Alexa to keep your voice recordings?

Deliberately or not, switching off the 'record and store my voice requests for 'learning'' setting really dumbs down the response quality. I did it since my kids use it a lot, but inside the rocket I'd have it set to on :D
 
Moaning everyone except Ender.
