State of the Game

Thank you very much for reminding me to set up a daily backup of my personal OneDrive to my NAS. You know, just in case. 😉

I already have it shared across several devices. But screw the memes on there, I'd rather not lose my other documents. I remember reading horror stories like that when researching it. I started using it on a trial basis about 8 or 9 months ago and while I have been making occasional manunal backups, nothing I do personally beats automating it...


Clippy?

...It does seem to have a direct correlation with frequency....
Indeed. I was on a service that ran every 10-15 minutes. Combine that with the numbers and it makes sense. For context the Bakerloo line ran three trains in three minutes, with a three minute break in between. I was lucky to meet myself when using it, and often joined the people who'd taken the first train at the bottom of the escalators when I'd arrive on train #3, having sat down for my journey.
 
so tomorrow, does fdev embrace the state of the game and just troll everyone hard... or just do a clip show of the year?

the right choice stream:
big text: "state of the game:"
then show all of the cool pp characters that never made it in the game. show the code for power collapse and faction elevation... have some employees playing Odyssey on the ps4. land on a planet with oceans and clouds and crash land into a thargoid that's walking around. have the cmdr pet his cat in the passenger seat before getting up and walking thru the ship to jump out of the access door. cut back to the streamers who are in vr on foot with hand controls...

then it cuts to black. coming in 2022.... to me. braben spins around in his chair, laughing... then gives the camera the finger. in the corner is a pile of bricks and a homeless person just crying and in the other corner behind braben is barreh the pp aliehn in a cage.
then just the text "have fun with update whatever"

most people might not get what they just did but we'd get it... and that's all that matters
 
I took this screenshot on our way to work yesterday...

Ah Vermont. Hope to be up soon to ski!

I remember having some ri friends up and driving to okemo from my house in quechee and one of them asking if everyone in Vermont drove on the wrong side of the road and i said no we just drive where the road is cleared (or at least sanded in your case brother nemo).

or in the end of year stream...fdev reveals they have a plant on the sotg thread that revealed a code thru their posts in the thread that reveal the location to a populated thargoid settlement.

but they don't reveal who or the posts.


just to force cannon to read it all and go insane
 
To keep this thread better behaved / under control, may I suggest Brigadier Sir Alistair Gordon Lethbridge-Stewart,
as our mascot for next week:

Always good in a tight spot, when faced with danger, often comes out with such immortal lines as: Chap with the wings there, five rounds rapid
 
oh yes, forgot about him - it's been one of those weeks / months / years (cross out as appropriate).
I'm still none the wiser as to who the hell he is - but fair enough, he was suggested first.

EDIT: Is this the chap ?

looks like him. he has a very recognisable personality/humor in his acting and is apparently really good at carpentry.

very good meme potential
