Just as a general reminder, whether or not I wind up buying #Starfield will depend upon the outcome of Leona Faren's suit against Zenimax/Bethesda. This has new information, too, out of Ms. Faren's lawsuit: to wit, after she was basically railroaded into resigning with the promise that her healthcare coverage would continue, including the costs of her transition care, that coverage was retroactively yanked. Leaving her to have to foot the bill.
Morning Folks! It is the last day of #Blaugust2023 and I do my best to set some expectations for how stressful "Tabulation Day" is going to be for me this year. I also talk a bit more about #PathOfExile and also talk a little bit about dipping my toes into #Starfield soon.
I'm finally coming to a #Starfield map that I like. This has the locations of the 120 visitable stars, nearby bright stars for context, and the locations of two important star density regions: the Ursa Major moving group and the Tucana-Horologium association.
Hopefully future mods or expansions can visit some of those locations.
I might sell a high resolution printable pdf plus a few other relevant maps through a KIckstarter for ten bucks or something.
In #Starfield, a colony ship which launched from Earth after the year 2100 opted to use Macintosh Classic IIs, discontinued in 1993 but seemingly upgraded by these colonists to hold two floppy drives.
For reference on the mass given in the image, the original Classic II weighed 16 pounds / 7.3 kilos.
