Gaming Snips And Bits

Not had a crash yet but several 2+ minute jumps between my current home system and Jameson Memorial.

Swapping between open and solo didn't seem to do anything to help either

Is it just me, or is it taking a bit longer to jump between systems today in #EliteDangerous?

Don't mind me, just draining the local settlement for all it's titanium and steel supplies...

Fred. I think your one looks like a Fred

🎶I'm all alone. More or less 🎶

That's today's earworm sorted, plus a reminder that I really need to start another rewatch of Red Dwarf at some point. It's been too smegging long.

Bit of an odd week for the YouTube channel:

- Released by far my WORST performing video in a long, long time

- Released my BEST performing short in the entire history of the channel

Can't win them all I guess - onwards and....sideways? 🫡

YouTube video by Gaming Snips and Bits First Impressions of the Panther Clipper MK2 [Elite Dangerous]

Not a full review yet, but first few impressions on the new Panther Clipper MK2

#EliteDangerous

There are many Panther Clippers MK2 being shown today. But this one is mine. Yet to receive a name and still undergoing it's shakedown cruise, so far this one is overall looking like a welcome addition to the hanger, in spite of a few minor issues.

#EliteDangerous

I'd like to take a moment while I'm screaming about helping people and disability to address the #EliteDangerous community directly about something.

Supercruise Assist and Auto-Dock are as much Disability Aids as anything else. I'm FUCKING TIRED of people being called lazy or stupid for using them.

Rest in peace Ozzy. A true pioneer in music and an inspiration to so many bands that followed.

If there is an afterlife, I do hope he's there tearing it up and rocking out with those who left the mortal coil before him

Mandalay coming in to land at Jameson Memorial in anticipation of the Panther Clipper MK2 dropping later on.

Just parking up at Jameson Memorial for access to all the internal modules that I may need for when the Panther Clipper MK2 drops later.

Let's just hope that as far as ships go, the Panther Clipper MK2 will be a good one...

YouTube video by Gaming Snips and Bits Good Old Games: Warhammer 40,000 Dawn of War

New video up today - and it got me thinking, what constitutes an old game? For me, I think if a game is legally old enough to drink, vote and fornicate, then I think it has the right to be called old - and dare I say it, retro

Probably still feels cooler than has most of this week 😁

Perfect Dark Reboot Canceled and Xbox Developer The Initiative Closed as Part of Devastating Microsoft Layoffs - IGN The troubled Perfect Dark reboot is canceled and Xbox studio The Initiative has shut down amid devastating layoffs sweeping across Microsoft today, sources have told IGN.

Oh FFS, was looking forward to the Perfect Dark reboot. Whilst Zero wasn't much to write home about, the original is a fantastic game that still forms a regular part of my rotation. #Microsoft

Replacement PSU is here! Before the Panther Clipper too.

Also it's early, but looks like no other components were taken out when the old one failed.

Thanks @corsair.com for a robust & fast RMA process on my old PSU.

I just really hope that Corsair RMA my power supply before the Panther Clipper drops. Really looking forward to that ship 🚀

RMA request is in - just hoping it all gets approved and the PSU gets replaced 🤞

Well, this is poop. Power supply died on my main gaming / editing PC last night. No warning, just a click and a dead system.

Hopefully going to put a new PSU in this weekend. Y'all cross your fingers for me that nothing else is broken...

Sidewinder right at the top. As it should be (given that I've referred to it as the "Top 1% of ALL ships" - clearly you're a person of excellent taste

Just came across this little gem of a post-it note in Starship Simulator - also applies to people who work in an IT support role 😁

Owning a rug that really ties the room together surely?

New #EliteDangerous video went live today - this time looking at the Scarab SRV:

Not going to lie, pretty happy with how some of the shots lined up with the voiceover on this one

Been playing a little #readyornot this evening - not going to lie, this arcade machine sums it up perfectly for me:

- Insert Coin
- Suck at playing
- Insert another coin in frustration

A Scarab SRV gazes down upon it's fallen comrade... #EliteDangerous

Fired up Forza Horizon 4 last night for the first time in ages as I needed a ~3 second shot for an upcoming Elite video. Ended up playing it for an hour or two.

Got this shot, because frankly, why not?

Latest ship review is live on YouTube - this time it's the Corsair.

It's taken a little while to put this one together, but it's been fun.

Corsair review dropping either today or tomorrow - just in time for me to start working on the Panther Clipper review 😁 #EliteDangerous

Two of those would be lovely... 🤔

Hopefully. If so, it needs at least 1000t of capacity to live upto the legend.

Somehow trying to balance the time I get on #EliteDangerous between getting footage for the Corsair review, hammering Powerplay objectives and building out a station or two.

Never a quiet day in the galaxy - and to be honest, I like keeping busy...
