Newcomer / Intro What are you up to?

OK, I've abandoned mastering FA off with a PS4 D-pad or whatever you kids call them.
I had a HOTAS in my Amazon wish list for a while so while I'm self isolating (bloody grandchildren!) I placed the order.
Wifey went nuts when it arrived as she spotted it in my wish list and ordered it for Xmas.
Just had to return it.....
Nine sleeps to go....

Hehe.

I always refrain from buying too much stuff near Crimbo. Christmas day would be... somewhat dubdued and positively icy if there was a toy turn up I already had. I keep dropping hints about this:


... with an 5950x instead.

Somehow, I dn;t think it'll be in my stocking.

So, you're planning ahead for Christmas 2021, then?
 
Hehe.

Lol I'm the same. I generally end up on a shopping spree in January for myself, filling in anything key to the next year's plans which Santa didn't bring. New amp for the guitar is top of the list this year (similarly sceptical that Santa will be that generous!!).
 
Hehe.

I thought you were after a new computer desk.

 
Went out Musgravite mining to test the PWA fix. It's looking very good. Cores were easy to see from a long way off.

I found 3 Musgravite cores and 2 Alexandrite cores in an hour. Sold my haul for just under 50 million, but I didn't search very hard for good prices.

All in all, I'd say things are working ok again, and payouts are still reasonably good.

May I ask how long that took you?

I'm not the greatest decorer so it'll tame me a lot longer. I was mining a bit earlier, albeit not seriously, and I found zero cores.

Good to see the fix works though@

Well, I just dropped into a random Hotspot that happened to be in the system I was in (Camazotz). It's not even a pristine system, just major reserves.

It was a rocky ring, of course.

It was pretty easy to find the cores, they lit up from a long way out and displayed that weird black/yellow grid thingy that they do. I noticed that the grid seemed a bit bigger than it used to be, but it worked the same way. I only misidentified a few. I did well cracking them, with no mistakes. I spent about an hour in the actual ring. So, add on time to go sell the stuff, I was probably busy for 90 minutes.

Probably what I'll do in the future, though, is just store the stuff in my carrier after mining it. Then later, when I have a decent amount, worry about selling it for good prices.
 
Krait MK2, two Standard lasers , prospector and collector limpets. Dropped into a ring, not at a hotspot, just looking you know...
60 limpets used in total for 10t of tritium. PWS works but does not show tritium in roids right next to you. Only found prospecting.
Why can it not be a tunable device? like FSS? \o/ mining....not really...
