More Traveller goodies

Here’s two cool ones from Zozer.

The Solo supplement is great even if you just want to use it as a GM to generate ideas.

And this colony builder is nice for any space setting.

I need Linux networking help.

We have a device that runs embedded linux and we manage wifi connectivity via the wpa_supplicant application. We have clients that are wanting to connect them to a Cisco IPSK network.

It’s been a long time since I did networking, and IPSK + radius is something I only vaguely know about.

But I can’t find anyone talking about the two in the same article.

Anyone know if it’ll even be possible?

Nepenthe A483436-B Ni (2724 Balgua/Foreven)

VlWG-11

Nepenthe Vlight Winged Glider-11

Vx: 10.67 tons Speed=6 Advanced Protected Weeks Q=-2

A personal glider designed for use in low gravity, dense atmosphere worlds. It contains an air filtration system that purifies air for the rider, a long range comms, GPS system, and also converts to a paddle boat for water landings. Primarily used for entertainment purposes on Nepenthe and can be rented for 300 credits a day.

@rivetgeek that’s storage space, not necessarily actual weight. And it’s made for 1/3 gravity world, so it can afford to have some extra goodies. But I might tweak that number, it was generated via T5’s vehicle system which might not handle gliders well.

deinol,
@deinol@dice.camp avatar

@rivetgeek how about this:

When ready for flight the glider occupies 2 tons of space, but it can be collapsed to 1/2 ton for storage and shipping. Actual mass 350kg.

deinol,
@deinol@dice.camp avatar

@rivetgeek lol, looking back over the numbers, the mass jump came from the extended power system, which is assuming a powered vehicle, not a long life battery for comms and rebreather.

So yeah, my tweaked size makes sense.

Looking for book recommendations for female and queer sci-fi and fantasy authors. Especially classic ones (pre 80s), but I know they aren’t as prominent then.

Facebook Clickbait Headline: Ancient shipwreck with Orichalcum may prove Atlantis existed!

Me: Um, that’s a copper/zinc alloy. We call that brass. It’s a neet find, very early for brass, but it’s not Atlantis.

@RogerBW it’s amazing how many people think “allegory Plato invented” means “historical fact”.

If anything it’s based on a vague sense of a previous “golden age” from before the Bronze Age collapse.

Now that I’m more than halfway through my Ogre Battle Box, I’m pushing to finish it off.

Although there’s a box somewhere in storage that has the infantry and light GEVs, plus hopefully the turret to my Fencer.

I should mention that if you are interested in Epic/Battletech/Ogre scale miniatures, SJ Games is doing a project for a new set of tanks that I’m of course getting two of.

Playing with Army Painter Speed Paints 2.0

I can see how easy it’ll be to paint up tiny tanks fast. I’ll need to pick up more colors.

After geeking out over 48 year old cybertank designs with @nyrath , I poked around and found an old interview where he talks about how he stumbled into illustrating the iconic Ogre tanks.

@rivetgeek @nyrath I love the Ogre models, but I want a game more complex than Ogre, and less complex than BattleTech. So I’m hoping this new edition of Epic hits the right sweet spot.

So I’ll be experimenting with a variety of adaptations for my silly collection of all three.

@deinol@dice.camp avatar

@rivetgeek @nyrath

That’s okay, now they can be long range radio antenna to control the swarm of scout drones an Ogre uses for long range sensors.

How amazing is it that your designs got tiny little plastic models all these years later?!

It’s an amazing time to be a gamer.

I don’t know why I never put it together before, but I just realized that Happy Days is the 70s equivalent of That 70s Show.

Of course Happy Days had a much larger cinematic universe.

@SJohnRoss to be fair, it felt old and dated when I watched reruns of it in the 80s, and I just never really thought about it much after that. 😅
