Yeah, Starship truly impressed meโฆat first. Then it was delay after delay, failure after failure. Itโs extremely obvious that Tom Mueller was the catalyst behind all of SpaceXโs actual success.

Inspired by the Expanse, Interstellar, and the Martian, if this sounds like its for you, check it out here!

Yeah, this came up in my Facebook memoriesโtwo years after the original two year reminder. (Which was nice, since I axed my Twitter account)

11.05.2025 01:53 โ ๐ 0 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 1 ๐ 0I have passed up my total #TearsoftheKingsom playtime in #NoMansSky, and am still finding new and interesting things.
08.05.2025 17:37 โ ๐ 2 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0Still enjoying the hell out of this game. #nomanssky
05.05.2025 19:49 โ ๐ 1 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0Some parts of it are definitely repetitive/predictable but those just become familiar. The planets themselves are based on sets of variables that are randomly generated. Iโm still finding new and exciting stuff daily.
23.04.2025 22:34 โ ๐ 0 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 1 ๐ 0Vast is an understatement. Without a couple of methods of fast travel, itโs nearly impossible to find a specific star system on the galactic map that isnโt adjacent to the one youโre currently in. And there are literally trillions of potential solar systems in this game.
22.04.2025 22:12 โ ๐ 1 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 1 ๐ 0Well. Solar panels and batteries. And a landing pad he could use. And a mineral extractor for some passive income. And access to extra storage. He thought it was great!
22.04.2025 20:00 โ ๐ 1 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0BUT. I was able to save his location, and use certain means to travel back there on my own game later. I built my own base just over the hill from his. With blackjack. And hookers! 3/
22.04.2025 19:57 โ ๐ 1 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 2 ๐ 0I played a game with my buddy the other day at his base, and he isnโt as far along as me, so his base is pretty barebones. 2/
22.04.2025 19:55 โ ๐ 1 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 1 ๐ 0So when you play multiplayer with someone you essentially play as a โguestโ in their game. You get to keep any resources you get, but youโre temporarily at their location for that session. 1/
22.04.2025 19:54 โ ๐ 1 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 1 ๐ 0Yeah, I was actually really excited about it before release, then ended up passing on it completely after seeing what actually came out.
I feel that they finally delivered the promised game.
Itโs seriously one of the best gaming experiences I have ever had. I absolutely adore everything about that gameโฆ except that I canโt erase my memory and play it for the first time again.
19.04.2025 23:10 โ ๐ 1 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 1 ๐ 0Oh you MUST. ๐
But Iโll tell you what I tell everyone else. Go in as blind as possible. Donโt even read the synopsis of the game on Steam (or whatever platform of choice)
Just start it up and play. It is best experienced knowing nothing, and once you know, you can never go back.
Of course, nothing is likely to top that first time playing Outer Wilds. Problem being that it can never be repeated. ๐ฅฒ
19.04.2025 09:52 โ ๐ 1 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 1 ๐ 0I mostly got it to play with a friend back home, but ended up getting really into it. Itโs like Morrowind meets Minecraft. In space. ๐
18.04.2025 22:25 โ ๐ 1 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 1 ๐ 0One of my oldest friends is playing, and we live on opposite sides of the country now, so itโs a good way to hang out a couple of times a week. But also, a fun and a bit addictive game. ๐
18.04.2025 20:03 โ ๐ 2 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 1 ๐ 0But then I upgraded! #nomanssky
18.04.2025 18:52 โ ๐ 0 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 2 ๐ 0I messed up. #nomanssky
18.04.2025 18:52 โ ๐ 0 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 1 ๐ 0Ok yeah. Iโm a bit hooked. #nomanssky
16.04.2025 09:34 โ ๐ 4 ๐ 1 ๐ฌ 1 ๐ 0My little man turned 18 this week. He has trouble jumping up to some of his lookout spots these days, but he still sits in my lap while Iโm working or napping, and is pretty much the best company anyone could ever want.
23.03.2025 05:18 โ ๐ 2 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 2 ๐ 0Wellโฆ no, but that one was my favorite. ๐
06.03.2025 20:21 โ ๐ 2 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0I randomly thought about this silliness today.
I never found out what he was blathering on about, since he completely disappeared shortly afterwards.
