Are you sure?
"It's a shame you're not a tech wizard anymore, we could really use your expertise right now..."
Slowly and cautiously, I approached the pyramid, my boots echoing against the metal floor. The air around me felt charged, and a strange shiver ran through my body as a low hum vibrated in the air, resonating deep within my chest. The symbols on the pyramid changed their pattern, pulsing more slowly and steadily now.
"Did you hear that? Something's going on here..." I said as I scanned the room for traps while trying to find out more about the technology in front of me.
My heart began to pound violently, each beat growing louder in my ears and drowning out the echo of my footsteps. The closer I got, the more I felt as if the pyramid was a living being waiting for me. Doubts and fears swirled around in my head and an inner voice urged me to turn and run back to the elevator, but I forced my feet to keep going.
When I finally stood in front of the pyramid, a shiver ran down my spine, not because of the cold in the room, but because of the profound feeling of being watched, observed by an invisible presence. Every hair on the back of my neck stood on end as the low hum of the pyramid grew louder and enveloped me. My breath caught as the symbols began to glow brighter, their light pulsating in sync now with my heartbeat. I couldn't shake the feeling that this was more than just technology - it was something intelligent, something that recognized me on a level beyond comprehension.
Next, all the screens stopped showing their streams, and showed different perspectives of myself instead.
"It's reacting to my presence," I exclaimed, my eyes wide with a mix of wonder and dread.
Great site, thank you
In the Commanders -> Crafting list if I add a suit to the list in personal equipment and all I add is updating the suit from grade 3 to grade 3 it shows I need components to do this. It looks like it is picking the grade 2 to grade 3 components. You also cannot pick grade 5 to grade 5.
If you have a suit of a given grade and want to see what components are needed for just adding the modification you will get the suit upgrade components also.
I'd like to spray obscene words on Thargoids and throw them into a settlement full of some goofs with a catapult.
Reminds me of those that have been in the Pleiades, like "Deliver us Salvation", or "Bugs Get Squashed". There was also one that looked like a Thargoids forbidden sign showing the flower like design with a dash through it.
“Don’t, know.”, I cautiously said while coming out of the elevator myself.
“Before we do, we should, check what it is. And, it looks like… something, relays camera feed, from somewhere.”
Maybe it was the object, which I was having some fuzzy feelings about, but I wasn’t entirely convinced if it was actually the thing relaying the camera feeds. Seemed likely, though, given what we were seeing.
I also wasn’t sure if the cause of those funny feelings was down to the unknown nature of this… thing, or came from those certain components to my body which were neither quite natural, nor human. And had a tendency to dislike the exposure to the Guardian technology that Azimuth loved using all too much. I gestured for my companion to move ahead, carefully… was in no rush to get close to whatever that was, myself.
Hopefully, those rows of androids were somewhere other than this facility or wouldn’t wake up on us… considering their number, that would present a very unnecessary delay.
The elevator took way longer than I had anticipated, but finally a hidden loudspeaker chimed softly, signaling our arrival. As the doors slid open, I was immediately struck by the stark contrast from what I had expected. Instead of a bustling command center filled with terminals, screens, and control panels, there was a vast, dimly lit chamber in front of us. Almost cathedral-like, with high ceilings that stretched into the shadows, its walls seemed to absorb all light coming from the elevator.
In the center of the room stood a bigger structure that immediately had my attention - a pyramid-shaped object that bore a faint resemblance to ancient Guardian relics. Its surface appeared smooth, save for a few enigmatic symbols that pulsed with a soft, eerie glow. Surrounding it, large screens displayed streams of data, their contents shifting and changing in real-time. Some were showing different perspectives of a hall with alcoves on the walls that appeared to contain androids. These monitor showed the words ‘Ark One’. At the same moment, others showed a kind of ship control room containing a similar looking pyramid.
I stepped out of the elevator, my senses heightened and every nerve on edge. This certainly did not correspond to the largely standardised structure of a normal human facility.
"Alright," I said, my voice echoing slightly in the vastness. "Whatever that thing is.... let's ensure it is shut down for good."
And you haven't learned anything yet? You're lucky Artie is too nice a person and I'm a guy, not a woman. You don't know me, don't say anything and judge based on internet. You shouldn't have started with your how to say it so you wouldn't get offended... your unusual "physiology" that you write here to us.
Funny, even though I have you ignored, I still see you what you wrote to others.
Come at me and pretend 'i didnt do anything wrong to you or others' policy at first place.
Have a nice day, o7
I value my account more (by far) than some internet 'victory' over someone who had already lost.
OmG! Someone sprays trash-talk'ish messages on a wall!
Clutch your pearls!
You never heard that? It's one of the most idiotic concepts leftist invented. One of many, to be more precise.
You capitulated before you even started. Ouch.
BTW, you can always send me amusing PM's as Strong Words Throwing Rayman did (that name is based on wording from her PM to me). LOL. That was entertaining.
Very rarely, it comes from servers or DNS, other than that if your system is serviced and your connection secured the game should run smoothly, I'm at 89.8 FPS and 12 ms average Max Graphic settings doing mostly CZs.
I have to agree with you on that. What's your plan to get out of that phase?
Artie, Artie, ban everyone I do not like! Reeee!
No, do not do that. That would be just silly and kinda edgelordish chicken move.
Been wondering that myself. And no. No sign yet...
Anyone else having problems jumping between systems? I'm way out in the black and FSD charges to full but ship won't jump. Keep getting in-game "failed to connect to server" messages in my inbox too...
Solved. Had to Task Manager out of the game and reload. (Even Escape had stopped working).
Back to normal rant. Dear frontier, stop nerfing the amount of rare commodities. I had good route from Phiagre to AZ Cancri filling up 216 rare cargo and back to my power territory. Now az cancri has only 36t.
Play your damn game for once and u'll see how frustating it is.
"Who are you?"
"Salvation."
"I mean, I want to know which sex you are."
"Azimuth."
"Dammit. What's in your pants?"
"Proteus Wave."
We need salvation once again to save us or fail us
In stations controlled by any Power there are sprays around the place and there is one particular that shows sort of trashtalk ish.
I could check the rest but im farming merits.
I guess it's a different type. The dilemma here, at least for me, is that, according to the website rules, I can't trash-talk him so hard that his hairline would finally retreat and capitulate, and I don't feel like investing into intellectual battles with such individuals.
Basement dwelling ED players who have not grown out of their teenage edgelord phase are a curse. Glad that I put this person on my ignore list and I would advise everyone to do that as well.
@Artie: is it possible to change the "ignore" filter so that replies to the ignored person also get filtered out? That would be super helpful in not seeing that type of sh***
Raxxla save us *facepalm*
Waht do you even mean by
sexism
alt right dog whistles
and other troubling things.
Let me guess, everything you do not agree with because you are the self anointed thought police and know exactly what's OK and what is not.
As I recall, "sex is a social construct". This literally means, that sexism doesn't exist. 'Ism of X while there is no X? That's some serous mental gymnastics, lady.
And of course, the "alt right dog whistles". Can you explain that? An example would be nice.
And while we are at it, what do you even mean by political "right"? Everyone right of Mao? Stalin? Trotskiy? Genrikh Yagoda? Some other Marxist fanatic from later times?
Why are you not complaining about leftist dog whistle? Are you completely illiterate in history? Start with Bolsheviks, gulags, followed by almost a century of murders, destruction of economies (that means human lives), famine, genocide and so on. You have no idea, do you?
"other troubling things" let me guess, everything you cant label but do not agree with so it must be deleted. Very totalitarian of you.
