I did not. It only fell to where the spinning blades are, I wouldn't have expected that to have any live electrical components.

People can be worried about more than one thing at a time.

Oh, so "anything" doesn't mean what it used to mean?

Can you share a full-body shot of yourself please? Don't worry, you won't suffer while it gets used to create other content that we'll distribute to your friends, family, classmates, coworkers, etc.

An old phrase that's stuck with me over the years, although I forget where I heard it:

I like it when my code works first time. It's like Christmas, but less often.

How is this not "related to games"? It's a thing that has the sole purpose of enabling people to play games.

Oof. Thanks for that kick in the feeling department.

Best response I can think of. Starts out saying the reaction is understandable, then has a little light jab at the dad, and then talks shit about the son again for good measure. :-D

Yep. It felt like the beginning of something from a horror movie, but I still have both hands.

 

In the task where they had to count the seats in the cinema Andy Zaltzman says "one" while he's talking. That should have been his accepted answer.

 

It's just a screenshot showing Light No Fire is on a lot of wishlists.

Perhaps this is the beginning of the run up to a release date announcement.

 

With all the stuff being added to No Man's Sky I'm wondering what will make Light No Fire distinct.

What can LNF add to differentiate it from NMS?

Welcome to the Eurogamer 100, a list of video games that aims to reflect their ever-changing nature. Rather than ranking games by their influence or significance, the below list is a suggestion of the very best things you can play at this moment, according to us.

It's a pretty good list, I think, although there are a few "wtf" moments here and there as I see what's included and what's omitted.

I'll cut right to the chase. I'm playing the Aquarius expedition and I got a ship called The Celeste when I started. I fixed it up a bit, filled the inventory, and then, when I got enough nanites, I claimed the Iron Vulture from a previous expedition at The Anomaly.

The Iron Vulture appeared, and I began emptying some of my exosuit storage so I could transfer stuff out of The Celeste into the Vulture. For some reason, however, I cannot spawn in The Celeste again. So the ship, its technology, and cargo are all gone.

I have not had this problem in the past, so I'm really not sure what happened.

I can't even remember everything I lost, but I really wish I could get it all back.

I advise caution for anyone else looking to do the same thing.

 

Sean Murray traditionally teases No Man's Sky news with a single emoji tweet, but he's also used the "world" emoji in posts about Light No Fire's open world.

Keep your eyes open for potential news in the next few days!

 

Just a little informal post to say I think about this game all the time at the moment. I know I shouldn't say it, but I miss the hype of No Man's Sky pre-launch. The podcasts, the Reddit threads, etc.

I just want some news, ideally a release date!

 

I just wanted to make this little post to say that after losing my previous permadeath save after 12 hours, I persisted, and made it to the center on my second attempt.

I kind of cheesed it though, thanks to the teleporter on the anomaly, and a guy named Jeff Pesos who happened to have a base one hop away from the galaxy's center.

I did manage to do this on the Playstation many years ago, but I recently got back into the game on PC and wanted to 100% it.

Anyway, that's it, thanks Jeff Pesos!

Several months ago there was a QR code on an episode that led to the linked website.

Today's finally the day it says yes!

 

Hey dads, my wife and I got an email from the school district this morning saying that someone had emailed threats of violence to a lot of schools in my county.

They said there will be a police presence at all schools, and they don't think the threats are serious.

My wife and I are keeping our son (6) at home today because we're just not willing to take that risk. Are we being overly cautious given what the police say? What would you do?

Edit: Here's an article about the threat that I just saw. Seems like it really was a stupid hoax.
