Except, that sounds like tbe exact opposite of what is written above. The crash is a point, where even computer can clearly tell, that something is wrong, so not to kill the entire process is irresponsible at best, and suicidal at worst.

>Look up supervisors and umbrella applications. They’re awesome.

thanks, I will. I hope it won't be just some feel good esotery though... :ablobcool:

the MiG-23 (first flown in 1967) was actually the first fighter jet to introduce a Heads-Up Display (HUD) where radar data from the Sapfir-23 fire control radar was displayed on the ASP-23D combination gunsight/hud.
so X4 has these quests you can do for the factions later in the game where they ask you to construct a station at a particular spot. They want you to use your construction ships (like giant space cranes) and hauling vessels to build it at the specified location with the specified station modules and equipment. If your station has at least what they asked for, you can give it to them to complete the quest and they pay you its value plus a little more as a commission. So you can add extra stuff, if it has like an L dock but they asked for an S dock they'll still take it, but your profit is lowered.

It hasn't been worthwhile for me to do these quests for a little while because I have a mining empire and I do a lot of mercenary work for the Split of Zyarth's Dominion. I have my own shipyard and a fleet of ships I'm using to defend Zyarth territory and raid Argon space which pays the bills. But now that I'm using all the resources I mine to feed my shipyard, I'm not selling the resources to the ZYA shipyards anymore and ZYA was having trouble making ships. They're bottlenecked on not having enough ore, and can't make new mining ships fast enough to get shipbuilding started again.

So I took a quest to build them a little defense outpost in a sector with raw materials and I built their defense outpost, but also added a fully vertically-integrated shipyard that's totally self-sustaining and only requires ore and gas input to produce ship output. Then I completed the quest and the NPC took control of it and started spamming ships. That's about where I am right now, but I could write pages about the shit I did to get to this point.

@alex
That sounds.... horrible and dangerous.

Software does not just crash. Why would they even want to treat crashes as normal?

I am not a programmer, but what do they want to achieve? If there is a crash, the program is obviously not where it should be. Why would you not stop it before 1/2 of your disk is gone or something?

Am I missing some joke? This sounds like:
one of tank shells didn't leave the barrel, just load another one and try again...

Columbia University sparked controversy after announcing it would be holding separate graduation ceremonies for different races and ethnicities

When asked to comment, the university replied, “we looked into it and it turns out the people who we thought were assholes ended up being right about everything”

Not gonna lie, the lit up picture looks 10 times better, but I definitelly cannot say they are my style...

I honestly thought, you had some crafting plan with this keyboard, and thet was why you kept the top side empty...

@mystik
A therapist I went to believed in tabula rassa and red a lot of esotery books...She also didn't understand the base problem I was talking about, so I got exactly what I paid for with a free meetings.

@COOL_FREE_RINGTONES @EmmaFaber
Man, I just wanted to go sleep... this is that 1 step too far even for fediverse....

@EmmaFaber @billiam
This...

I knew talking to you would most likely be pointless, but it is amazing to see, that in all of your rants, you never took the time to learn the basic arguments of the opposite side.

Men don't care if laundry or washing dishes is "manly" in your tiny bitch brain. They want to come home and rest after day of hard work and enjoy time with kids/wife.

But I guess it doesn't matter, so just go and take your meds Emma.
