EVE seems like a fun game that I'd like to play, but I can't bring up the dedication to play it every free second of my day. Also, monthly subscriptions.

I think you can pay monthly subscriptions with in-game cash if you do well enough.

Yeah, and if you're clever, you can make enough after 2-3 months with some clever passive industry stuff that doesn't require you to be logged in. Or immediately if you're good at scamming/ganking.




Ahahahaha
How?

One of my double agents *might* have told PL that CFC didn't have active cyno chains to bring in reinforcements. And I *might* have been lying. If PL knew what CFC's numbers were like they probably wouldn't have escalated.



Pretty lights.

Almost looks worth spending all of my time on.. almost. Very pretty, though.

When I search for information about a game Google now generally has the appropriate Bay12 thread in the search results.
It begins.

Eve is not that bad. You can be mining at a tidy profit within an hour, and doing basic NPC pirate missions in pretty much the same amount of time. I only play about an hour a day, not every day. A fairly well-equipped cruiser can be paid for in about an hour or two of fairly safe mining. I'll be out of game for a while until my financial situation is more stable, but once I'm back in I'll gladly form a Bay12 corp or join one someone else has made.

But what if you lose that cruiser?

You don't fly anything you can't afford to replace.

You insure the cruiser, and then mine for about an hour to buy another one if you have to. Unless you're completely incompetent (which you shouldn't be if you have the skills to fly a cruiser, as it takes a week or two to train those up) you'll have made enough money on missions or pirate bounties to make up the cost (never deliberately do PVP with your best ship. The rewards aren't anywhere near as guaranteed as PVE.)

Went to the computer lab in school to do an assignment that I thought I was running behind on. Turns out I still have two weeks to do it, though it's already done.

That's not the WTF. While I was in the lab (which is strictly 'school-work only', there are people whose sole job is to wander around the lab and make sure people are using the computers properly) I noticed that someone was reading what I'll refer to as "adult comics" in plain view.

Was it Oglaf, or actually "adult comics"?

Whoah... all this morning and most of yesterday I've been thinking it was Friday today, and that I was going out in the evening. :-X
Only realised my mistake when I saw an event post on Facebook that confused me.

Thankfully I haven't had to deal with that yet.  Seeing as how I'm a lab assistant, I'd have to be the one to tell them to stop, and probably call the cops on them for indecency in public or something.

How I dread the day.

I wish it was Oglaf.

No, it was "adult" adult comics.

Maybe it was research. For a report. On sexual stereotypes in internet culture. Yeah, that's the ticket...

In the days when Sussman was a novice, Minsky once came to him as he sat hacking at the PDP-6.
“What are you doing?”, asked Minsky. “I am training a randomly wired neural net to play Tic-Tac-Toe” Sussman replied. “Why is the net wired randomly?”, asked Minsky. “I do not want it to have any preconceptions of how to play”, Sussman said.
Minsky then shut his eyes. “Why do you close your eyes?”, Sussman asked his teacher.
“So that the room will be empty.”
At that moment, Sussman was enlightened.
