  1. Spamming.
  2. Well written, with a superior command of the English language. I salute you, sir.
  3. Yes. Very, very fluently.
  4. A one-party government doesn't mean you lose free will, but living in China does. I don't personally believe in democracy...
  5. The Chinese people generally approve of whatever their government tells them to approve of, so that's hardly any guide.
  6. Regulated by private bodies? How does that even make sense? Regulation comes from the government. Deregulation = putting things in the private sector. Anyway, the point of my reply wasn't that our medical system (the best in the world) is turning into crap, it's that whatever small amount of money we save on food from allowing illegal immigration we more than pay for in *every* other aspect of our lives--emergency room prices being just an obvious example.
  7. That's also the reason medical prices are as outrageous as they are. Not saying it's right, just pointing it out. :-)
  8. Seems to be back online.
  9. The chances of enough drives failing at once to actually lose data is vanishingly small, and space is more important to their business than individual drive reliability.
  10. If the zone population was 2-4, yes, it might be a problem. As it is, it is not a problem.
  11. At minimum wage (7.25/hour), you'd have to pay him at least $0.60 for the 5 minutes it would take him, and programmers make a lot more than minimum wage ($40/hour). So make it $3.50. I'm sure Cerium will take paypal. The 25 million HS bucks works too.
  12. The fact that everyone believed it says a lot about the status of the zone.
  13. Make sure it'll run in Wine or natively on Linux. Any reason to use C++ over C? The more I use C++ the more I dislike it. Seriously, though, you should think of this as an opportunity to learn a new language, like Python, or Ruby (or C# if that's new to you).
  14. Hyperspace, obv.
  15. There are (or were, last time I used blender) a huge number of tutorials. I'd just do tutorial after tutorial until you feel comfortable.
  16. Ship exp is a part of hscore3, not the current version.
  17. Ship exp
  18. Lol, apparently I don't have that font on my linux install.
  19. If it comes right down to it, the zone knows your resolution... so we could just give you the old green message if it's off your screen. There may be a more elegant and graceful solution (like putting the lvzs around the edge of your screen), but it would be quick and easy.
  20. Since I have no idea what you guys are talking about, I'll assume it doesn't work for me.
  21. Even so, there are other things that will kill people en masse, either directly or allied kills. So we need to provide enough ids to make that possible.
  22. On first read, that seemed like a request to help you move.
  23. I totally forgot about things like cobalt. Yeah, we're gonna need a lot of ids.
  24. We already do that, actually. For ID, Jump, and Transwarp, we have 20 map objects (each) that we rotate through. It's really not that difficult to program.
