It would be so funny if Chіna published an image of X-37B in response, but idk if it'd be as cool as the one we published ourselves #kb»a

Behold: The US Defense Intelligence Agency has released a report on challenges to security in space, including an NEI image of China’s spaceplane from Maxar, taken in 2024.

Long ago, I ghоstwrоte for various IT companies' SЕO blogs. SEО has since moved on, and what remains is mostly LLМshit – and I think that's just sad. Think of all the undergrads who could be getting paid to shitpost about "whoops our cert has a private key of 4" and the PHP vuln right now! #kb»r

Though, I'm curious whether this is due to feedback, or because they're looking at achievements and noticing a statistically significant dropoff at Wings of Wax and Thousand Points of Light. Or maybe they have fine-grained telemetry about ranks and retries. #kb»v

Honestly I'm not sure either the Ladon or Shadow fight should be patched. The Ladon isn't that hard in any non-attacker if you don't fly pure pursuit (and if you're playing on Elite or Ace you should know that), and capping Lux Lunae 22nd's flares just puts an uninteresting hole in the design. #kb»v

I say this as someone who doesn't like how the Shadow 22 fight is designed. The core issues are that: >there are two strats to beat them and both are build dependent rather than skill in a way you can't know >they hard break missile guidance even without flares in ways which just feel wrong #kb»v

How I'd do it: >no invuln except for the flares >Parthian Shots do actual damage >they'll try to bait you into a one-circle fight while a wingmen comes in and gets you with an LAAM >if you try to catch an extending Shadow instead, that's when they'll Parthian Shoot you right in the face #kb»v

I'm now 2 for 2 on "beating Namco-published AC games before the big filters get nerfed in a patch" weird that they're different franchises tho

finally getting around to doing a ship design for the jovians, might still change it up a bit though and im still figuring out a naming scheme for them, currently it's just military theorists cause technocrats, but meh

Always strange to see when someone follows another user who is a) constantly poasting b) things which I know for a fact they find grating. I'll sometimes bite that bullet for one reason or another, but only if it's only every now and then. How do people use this service? #kb»r

Also in looking up Xabungle cockpit screenshots, I'm pleased to report there was apparently a Xabungle steering wheel playset for the kiddies

People keep on asking me “What’s the best vehicle for my secret volcano lair” expecting a Humvee or a Land Rover and I keep telling people that you’re driving on concrete in a heavily guarded area. You want something that’s not gonna break the bank. A Honda Vamos fits the bill.

You know AC8 was good because the memes for AC7 were almost immediately insufferable and we aren't nearly at the bottom of material to mine from AC8 yet #kb»v

the last week of aceposting has been of better quantity and quality than I have ever seen absolutely peak vibes rn

Take heart: it is entirely possible in 2026 to get Aniplex to fund an anime adaptation of your Elite Dangerous self-insert harem fanfic with space elves. The sky's the limit! #kb»o

…it has basically all the faults you'd expect from that description, but what's remarkable is that it's *not* outright terrible. It would probably have a minor following two decades ago #kb»o

LRP: I bet a lot of airlines in Strangereal are adopting propjets for regional flights due to all the wars disrupting the global energy supply. It's no wonder Osea went all-in on SBSP lol #kb»v
