BuuhanonHey, can someone help me with my CMDR profile? I'm trying to set up a picture so it wouldn't be stretched by Inara. What sizes have you set up so avatar would look perfect and not gaping?
It has to be square-shaped, none less than 128x128, as far as I know. Personally, I use 300x300 image.

It literally supplies the appropriate dimensions on the upload photo screen.

Watching the new season of "The Expanse" just reminds me how rubbish turrets and torpedoes are in this game

I have not seen the Expanse yet but I will agree that turreted weapons in ED are rather lack luster.

I mean, that makes sense. The turrets in Expanse are a thing because no ship has a shield. PDC is survival where missiles fly around and speed is key to survive railguns, since some ships are instantly disabled or outright killed with just one round to the right place.

Spoiler:
Show more

Also, the battles in Expanse are stretching dozens, hundreds if not thousands of kilometers.

No joking on any of that, and it's worse in the books. The range of battle in both show and book is just scary as hell. One of the things that has been a pain to work out for cross-over stories. -.-;

If George C. Parker was still alive today, he would be selling NFTs.

NFTs = No Fucking Thanks

I second that. I really don't think NFT is a good idea.

Grecale80I really hope this new year could bring us a bit of normality again.

The virus just mutated from slightly worse than influenza to slightly worse than the common cold. If this doesn't end the pandemic, nothing will.

Any chance I could see your source on that? Google is just giving "do you have COVID or the cold and how to tell?" articles.
