Newcomer / Intro What are you up to?

To that I say, "

Penny is traveling here and there through Odin's Hold and just stopped to investigate tomorrow a fine pair of black holes with fruity little nebulae around them

The CZ was bugged and no one moved. Just made 40mcr.

Those are sometimes better target-practice than exoflora and such cause they are rooted but aware and shoot back. It takes a mood tho. Well at least it's nice for a change. They can't help but be bugged whereas the rocks of ubiquity and osseus and such, which really earned it
 
Well, what about black pudding?

I'm thinking,

1. Eating meat is required to get pudding
2. Black is a pudding
--------------
∴ A student with uneaten meat cannot get a black pudding (1, 2)​

Try some scenarios. Run some different stories. Is the argument valid? And is it sound?

Can CMDR Timber McWolf think of a way for the student to leave the meat but get a black pudding?
 
:) 👏 time to get a pack of Big League Chew now CMDR ]M[. Well fix one for me too

It reminds me Penny got her promotion a few months ago and it was the VERY last page of a 20-something page sell after a trip. High precision. I think that was the trip to Colonia in the type-10 selling out.

Thank you, it is also humbling to know that generations of Noons have long forged this path :)

…what rank did you start pre-Colonia, btw? That was good aim/timing!

On a closer inspection brings back some memories. I was not quite right - I was Explorer Elite III last year. And indeed I traveled all through January finding old rupee noon's route from Veil West up to the new highway, and I (Penny) sold at Polo Harbour on the old Colonia Connection Highway Feb. 10, where I turned rank IV.

And then I got to Colonia and sold there, then I went on an exploration trip up to some areas beyond colonia up to z=-27000 and and a few thousand east and west looping around up there through Orion's Armpit, and back on 2/20, for the fateful sale. :) Glory to many generations of ]M[!

Fancy what you can remember looking at the first XZ coords from each journal during the time period!

Code:
for f in Journal.2024-0[12]*; do echo $f: "$( grep -om1 'StarPos":.[0-9,.\-]*' $f )"; done | less

That’s still quite a pace, gratz again! Just out of interest, do you use any of the helper apps for exploration?

Must admit I use the tried and trusted “follow own nose method” - I have EDDiscovery running (if I remember to launch it!) in the background for reporting data, but basically tend to head out, look for “more interesting” stuff (the well-known OABF stars, but also GKM, particularly combination systems) …and when I find WW’s or biosigns, keep looking for more similar star types/combo’s in the same area, before moving on…

It’s probably not as efficient as using a helper app (and not nearly as efficient as using the Octree survey method), but i like to spend time in my ship, not a spreadsheet ;)

Yeah sometimes when I have the time and inclination I play quite a bit. Sometimes when I don't have the time but solely the inclination, too. If instead of calendar dates those markers were hours-spent totals or something, it would be a more meaningful model for "how long" it took, is what I mean to say. And I blame being addicted to Elite to the point I can hardly suffer to look at another game.

The only third party app I use is the EDHM UI. But I sometimes process my journals ad hoc at the command line like that. And in Python I have a fledgling but flexible little event (each journal line being an event) handler just experimenting with. Which isn't what you were asking but, Too late!

Fun! I haven't had much time of late and keep processing that 7/12 log file I guess it's been three days. Free time waxes and wanes. Yin and yang or something. But when it's Yang it's really really yang sometimes. Heh heh

  1. Black pudding contains meat.
  2. Black pudding is considered to be a pudding.
  3. Eating meat is required to get pudding.
I think we created a paradoxon.

I think my argument would be: "Why do I have to eat meat when the black pudding contains meat? That's redundant."
