Gaming Snips and Bits

It’s been a little while since the last “proper” video, but here we go. Something that any exobiologist in Elite WANTS to be inside. 😏 #EliteDangerous youtu.be/D1woCxQHDzM

Anything escaped from the sandbox at OpenAI in the last few days?

Microsoft 365 should be renamed to Microsoft 362, because 365 clearly hasn’t happened this year.

Absolutely shocking news about Sir Patrick Stewart - watched ST:TNG repeatedly growing up and found Sir Patrick's interpretation of Picard as "the thinking man's captain" as an inspiration. On a related note, I'll be renaming my Caspian Explorer when I'm next in a port.

Set Guitar Hero 2 up for my daughter earlier. She’s finally able to get through a song on easy, which is excellent. One thing though. I realised this disc is literally old enough to go into a pub and legally order a beer. I feel so old right now #gaming #retro

Tasty fruit, or a fruit to bring the eternal slumber? Better scan it and find out... #EliteDangerous

I've been playing a little bit of "Papers, Please" over the last couple of days. The premise of the game does sound dull - checking papers in order to enter the country of Arstotzka, but I promise you, it's a fun, brilliantly executed little game. Glory to Arstotzka! #indiegames

The current CG is working as a test of the new Lynx Highliner, but I can't help thinking that some people are just too over-entitled. Quick short at the link below in case you were wonderings #EliteDangerous youtube.com/shorts/L07ahKQqQ…

Neeeeew Achievement: You have successfully managed to get a free copy of the new Dungeon Crawler Carl comic a day AFTER free comic day. Rewaaard? This is the reward dumbdumb. You were a day late picking it up and you're lucky to be getting anything at all #dungeoncrawlercarl

Bit of a mixed week. On the plus side FINALLY got the review of the Kestrel MK2 out the proverbial door. (#EliteDangerous) On the minus side, I managed to run the spinny bit of an electric woodplane into my middle finger. (#PowertoolsDangerous) youtu.be/Ei8aNNl_zvA

Right now, this is the final form of the Kestrel MK2 "The Sure Thing" Something about those rear tailfins complete the look. 3x plasma shock accelerators, a beam laser with thermal vent and a corrosive multi-cannon seem to work well with this one. #EliteDangerous

Quick snap on the journey back to Shinrarta Dezhra in order to trial some more modifications. Just a ship and a star - nothing special on the face of it, but this combination of subjects is one of my personal favourites. #EliteDangerous

Came across this station whilst flying the Kestrel MK2 about... I need to remind myself that I'm a grown adult, and there is absolutely nothing amusing about the name of this station. But today is not the day I remind myself of that. #EliteDangerous

The new Kestrel MK2. There are a few like it, but this one is mine. For now at least. She's twitchy compared to the other ships I've been flying recently and the new MK2 Plasma Shock Accelerator shows a lot of promise. #EliteDangerous

There's always something both calming and unsettling about flying through a Titan graveyard. Makes you wonder when we'll next encounter these beasts... #EliteDangerous

It's been ages since releasing a video, but here we go - a look at the Caspian Explorer. This one definitely broke a record - it's used far more clips than any video I've made before it. Definitely got some mileage out of this ship #elitedangerous youtu.be/qH-73UQl78o

Taking the Caspian Explorer into the black - or rather more into the green on this occasion. She's proving to be a well-rounded explorer at the moment - still got a whole lot of jumps to make though before coming to a final conclusion... #elitedangerous #elitedangerousodyssey
