  • Folk are saying steal a ship to add to your fleet to get slot for a custom ship… you have to register a stolen ship before you can enter the ship builder but almost every cheap stolen ship I’ve ever captured has been 10k or 11k to register. I one time got like a level 4 ecliptic ship that was 9.8k to register but that was the cheapest. The ports sell ships for 6k - 7k. I also think the commerce perk gets them cheaper but I don’t know if it affects registration price at all. Don’t waste time pirating ships just to replace all the parts, just buy the cheapest ship. Best thing to do with most pirate ships, if you happen to have one is register and sell it to make a couple thousand credits.


  • I can’t speak for everyone but, in the US, I would imagine students especially cooking with fresh ingredients is pretty rare, especially guys. Personally I didn’t start doing that myself until I was married and really only because my wife enjoyed cooking. Since kids I can’t imagine being on the processed food train - most people I know didn’t start cooking at home when they had kids.

    I’m a big proponent of the “cooking is way easier than you think” camp but you’d be surprised how little some people have in their pantry and cabinets. There’s folks that don’t even own a baking dish, anything more than a 12" frying pan is probably a big ask depending who you’re talking to. Spices? I knew kids in college that didn’t even own table salt and pepper shakers… if I said the word turmeric I’d get a funny look.

    I somewhat agree but your time scale is way off.

    At least in the US, it’s been exactly this way for at least the last 20-30 years. 20 years ago was 2003, if you showed me this photo and told me it was from the turn of the millennium I wouldn’t bat an eye. The 90s was crazy with all these fast brands and snacks. Everyone’s freezer was filled with totinos pizza rolls.

    Arguably longer to be honest. I can’t remember a time where frozen microwave junk food didn’t dominate the grocery stores and TV advertising. I wouldn’t hesitate to believe an argument that it’s been like this since the early 70s but assume it happened sometime in the 80s when the stay-at-home housewife transitioned to the career-focused woman.


  • I used to use BitWarden but switched to 1Password about a year ago once I decided to buy a business account for my department at work (which gives every user a free family account)

    1Password is fantastic. It stores more than passwords, it’s fine tuned to do that, but really can be used to store anything securely. The dev team uses it to share secure .env variables and API keys for example.

    One of the best features though is the ability to share secured links to VIEW passwords outside of your network. When a coworker asks me to share an account password I don’t just copy and paste the username and password over email. I click share in 1Password and shoot them a link that only they can view (using email 2fa). I can also make more open links to shared credentials that expire (or until I expire those links myself).

    The phone app works great and once you get it set up on one device it’s easy to configure it on others.
