Engineer: I need 50 units of special exclusive tea. For reasons.
Me: alright bet, it’s not TOO too far out to the EAST INDIA TRADE COMPANY system (😳)
Station: You can have 15.
Me: okay… When will you have more?
Station: When you get back 🙃
Engineer: 🙃

#EliteDangerous why are you like this 🤣😭

Okay that is a successful surgery! The Rudder pot was acting crazy even with a 50% dead zone looked like Jim’s shootin’ hand.

I’d hoped to get it apart, but the assembly was pretty complex, so instead I used a 23g hrt needle to precisely inject some IPA under the pot cover. Twisted it to share love, then let it rest before reassembly.

Now it’s lookin like Jim’s other hand: steady as a rock.

I wanna be flying spaceships but I had to tear down my flight stick to troubleshoot an issue with the rudder axis.

Maybe tomorrow

Day one of recording, in the books 😩😮‍💨😌

Looked at a couple video clips a friend caught in the studio and I def see some room for improvement, but we’ll see how the takes all shake out in the mix! We’ve got six more recording days, or, well, nights. Scheduled this week. Plenty of time to get it all 🤌🏽

@tdp I had everything mapped out to the HOTAS with I think a single exception for something I mapped to spacebar. It was a science to never have to come out, now with the new star map it’ll be even easier 🤩

Flying in VR in this game ruined basically all space flight games that aren’t VR. And, honestly I can’t decide if I love it or hate it for that 🤣

@tdp i don’t actually have odyssey yet, and I’m on the fence about getting it at all since everything I love about it involves the VR side of things.

I am curious about running around on foot though, so I’ll keep an eye out for a sale or somethin.

So I hadn’t played #elitedangerous since before Odyssey came out, but I’ve been thinking about it a lot the last month or so.
Was messing around with MW5 mods yesterday and tried out a VR one, and I tell ya, looking around that cockpit gave me FEELS.

So now I’ve had to patch the client and poke around the new menus and things. Can’t wait to actually take to the stars again. 🤩🌌

@cailinkins 🥺🧡🫂

@callielaren @solient oh god I just fired it up today for the first time in like 2 years, hopped on here and this is the FIRST thing I see 😅

I wish I had room for both my drums and my Index. I wanna fly spaceships again but VR ruined me and I won’t do it in 2D again.

Between Elite Dangerous and House of the Dying Sun, and even the inedible jank of No Man’s Sky, literally any 2D screen of spaceship cockpit just feels false now.

Did a lil duet video with a friend of mine’s video. How fun 😁
