What NOT to do.....

Balance is needed here...

Less frosting and more sprinkles.

Excessive use of frosting has shown to undervalue the CeP whilst giving the FlP community an added edge.

The SeP are a quiet bunch, in their own group, because of the lack of sprinkles.
 
A wild guess...

You frantically tried to catch the cupcake, tangled up with your joystick cable at which point it fell off of the desk. Probably on the far end side. Then you crashed your ship due to the joystick impacting with the ground...and it is broken as well. About right?
 
Two days ago, I bougth and A-kitted an ASP for mining. That's à 12M Cr ship, mates.

I detach for the first time with it, and my lovely wife chose this exact moment to talk to me.

I must have put like 5% propulsion in it. Quite enough so when I look back at the screen, I se a pile of debris and a 500k insurance bill.


Lesson of the day : go into fracking divorce if needed but DO NOT get your eyes off you ship after detach, till you are through this letterbox.

Same happened here last morning, it was early and it wasn't even 6:30 yet. I brought my cup of black coffee right to my desk just beside where the modem is connected to the router that is instead below the desk. Losing my coordinatination in a careless attempt to grasp the cup, I bumped my forearm into the cup, spilling the black coffee into the heat vents, only to hear a brief zapping and an internet connectivity error on Windows. Thankfully, the warranty was far before expiration. :D
 
You need to fit a CC, cupcake computer. Pre 1.3 they were a complete mess and you could end up cleaning crumbs from your orifices for days, but since their upgrade I've had a 100% cake to face success ratio.

Or do I mean docking computer? Yeah that's it, fit a docking computer...

I would avoid using docking or cupcake computer... I am old-school, NEVER use a docking computer in an Elite game as the one time you leave it unattended it will slam you into the station wall or sometimes, into the other side of the station where there is no slot. I prefer to put cake in my mouth, not the back of my head.

Lol, next time I eat any cake I'm going to sing the Blue Danube Waltz to myself. Might get a weird look for anyone else sitting in the Cafe, but what the hell.

Over the weekend I discovered that the hyperspace jump is almost but not quite enough time to roll a smoke, particularly when there's a white-dwarf at the other end and you forgot to throttle down. Result? Baccy all over the keyboard / joystick, 50% hull damage, and still no rolly.
