I'm sorry you wont be making it, it would've been nice to meet you and we all have such a good time each year. But with hypercritical neuroses fueling such an erroneous parti pris, I'd probably fear for my safety as well, lol. :laugh:

I completely agree with the first part, but, I think Medgirl's joking comment quoted below perfectly demonstrates exactly why I don't feel comfortable going. Maybe the one good thing that's come out of the Brexit referendum is that I no longer have a work trip to New York City.

I do hope those that go enjoy themselves.

I guess one of us will have to say it... if you are afraid we'll just give you some protection. Just have to get the guns out first. Would you prefer big, explosive, or purse size? I'm guessing the latter and if all else fails I'll use my teeth to rip any "danger" apart. :)

I hope those that subscribed had fun and enjoyed themselves.

I have a similar Logitech headset, an H800, and I've lately been having these problems too. My PC's specs are completely different to yours, but, we share the same OS.

I haven't found a solution yet, other than to continue using it as-is. Or, if you can suffer through the bluetooth connection's poor quality, use that for the time being.

Hi NicholasJohn,

suppose, that I can´t give you a hint on how to get rid on the annoying sounds you are hearing, but I also have a BT Headset Problem.

I own a Philips SHB9100 Bluetooth headset and I got lots of trouble on operating it with the Windows 10 Machine where STO is running now.

Whenever I connect it to the PC, I got two possibilities to choose from:
Either "Handsfree Audio Mono" or "A2DP Stereo Audio".

Obviously I want to have Stereo HQ sound, but it doesn´t work. I only have mono sound on the right ear (left channel / ear without sound!)
This is system wide on Windows (means also Teamspeak - and I struggled with it at our pride event).

Curious thing is: It works seamlessly without any problem in Stereo HQ on my iPhone and also in the Macintosh (also worked well in STO on the mac when it was still supported).

I already looked into a different A2DP driver for Windows 10, but didn´t find any. The systems driver hooks up on the Bluetooth Realtech chipset.

Any idea what I can do?

Regards

Nicolas-James (also a "NJ" *hehe*)

Daneraes now has a bad ass tool kit at her disposal.

:pinch: Between her dragons and the Unsullied, I totally agree. BUT I honestly have to wonder how useful the Dothraki hordes are actually going to be.

The use of cavalry strikes me as something to put on the "AVOID" list when drawing up plans for a sea invasion of a large hilled city with narrow streets and fortified control points. A battle on wide open plains hell yeah, but using them for urban assault sacrifices literally everything that makes a large cavalry force useful: speed, maneuverability and the numbers to mow down everything in their path. We've not really seen whether they're worth a damn without their horses.

In King's Landing, cavalry could be easily funneled into the city's alleys maybe 2-3 abreast (at most), then cut to pieces with pikes and archers from ground level and from every window and doorway along the path. Then of course their corpses (both men & horses) would just choke off the streets even more, impeding the progress of her Unsullied foot soldiers.

Danaerys, Tyrion, Varys and Grey Worm would surely have to understand this. Therefore, either the Dothraki are mainly along for what happens after King's Landing, or they will be employed mainly as foot soldiers in KL, negating their most effective use.

And just in case: if you know about any sort of giveaway that we all could use just post it here or send a pm to me, I'll try to update first post asap -as much as I'd like to keep an eye on all of them, it's a bit tedious at a times to scroll through all of the websites that have STO + Giveaway tags in google.

Free... one of my favorite words... Did not have the 2nd freebie so many thanks...

I too loved her outfit, and admired her tactics.

That said she is still toast. Daneraes now has a bad ass tool kit at her disposal. Not to mention that the north will be very hard to deal with. John and Sansa working together, Bran soon to arrive, and lil sis off dealing with her list.

Dig that outfit...looks like Tal Shiar formal wear to me. And are we sure that wasn't a thalaron detonation?

Just moved back to Los Angeles from nyc, and just started playing GW2 recently. I like MMOs, and played wow for a long time, but the people are just too much. Heard GW2 has a good community and some interesting gameplay, so I'm giving it a shot. Still trying to figure it all out.

Looking for a good MMO community that understands how different the experience of playing video games is for women (let alone queer women). Ideally, the experience would be the same. Everyone gets to have fun equally, and no random dudes ask me to get naked for them.

So far the most interesting thing about GW2 has been the personal story aspect, and the dailies system is so much better. I'm more of a pve player (love raiding, but haven't gotten that far). Do enjoy some larger scale pvp as well. Interested to see how the wvw mechanic is done. Have to admit that I can't take the anthropomorphic frogs seriously, but y'know. Fantasy world.

Other interests include photography, flow arts (fire poi), and sci fi. Volunteered at LA pride, and walked in two GW2 "parades" on Sunday. It was very sweet.

I also enjoy photoshopping sunglasses onto pictures of cats.

Nice to meet you.

Episode "The Naked Time", TOS

That was a hell of a ride. When I first saw this episode, I was stunned. Lovely characters, Chapel in one of her best moments, Sulu fighting (where is his foil in STO?), this awful song that Kyle was singing, and even a Mister Spock who was crying over never told his mother that he loved her. A coldstart of the warpengine, which is impossible to do, unless you have a Miracle Worker onboard. And also the obligatory torn apart shirt of Kirk in the end. Great.

The breakup of planet Psi 2000 was characterized by dramatic changes in its magnetic field, including at one point a four degree shift of the whole magnetic field. Does that sound familiar? As far as I know, Earth's magnetic field reached it's lowest fieldstrenght EVER, and nobody knows why.

There are talks about pole shifts, of natural cycles, even about planetary objects entering or passing our solar system causing this. In finding out which of these theories explains most of whats going on, I stumbled upon a article, which might explain why people are getting more and more strange or aggressive or spiritual. It states that humans have a receptor for magnetic fields.

Could this and the weak magnetic field of earth be the cause for the strange behavior of humans? What do you think?

If you want to read on, here's the rest of the naked time series:
The Naked Time - Introduction
The Naked Time - Part 2 - Gravitation
The Naked Time - Part 3 - Lightspeed
The Naked Time - Part 4 - Time

Do you also notice the world getting weirder from day to day? More and more people behave in a strange manner, the weather is becoming lifethreatening all over the planet and our animals are either travelling in wrong directions or die for unknown reasons. There are astonishing news in the media every day, and it seems that there should be a link tieing all that together. What is happening?

I want to find out. I started digging, researching, asking questions, what is it that makes people turn evil, did we cause a chain of effects that probably killed our planet, with all the lifeforms crawling around on its surface? What I discovered shocked me, made me happy, shocked me again, it was a rollercoaster of "no, that can't be true" and "what the heck is going on".

These discoveries will be the topics of my coming postings, as the picture is much too complex to explain in one post. I'm very interessted in your thoughts, opinions and statements and perhaps there will be an answer in the end. I wanna start with the good things that come up during my research, than switch to the more depressing ones, closing with the things I don't understand.

Because STAR TREK is one of the things that brought us together in this lovely community, I will illustrate my thoughts and ideas with episodes of this fantastic franchise. Gene Roddenberry's vision was to show us opportunities we might consider in building our society, solutions for problems that occur when doing so, and how we could eventually cope with threats which are far too big to handle for us.

Which leads me to a final question: What if the tale, that Gene was telling us, is not about the fiction of science, but about our past?

Hope you enjoy my findings and conclusions. Have fun.

Start here:
The Naked Time - Part 1 - Magnetism
The Naked Time - Part 2 - Gravitation
The Naked Time - Part 3 - Lightspeed
The Naked Time - Part 4 - Time
