My advice, for what it's worth, is not to worry about numbers, or benchmarks, or pbs, or strava, or what your computer algorithm tells you. Just get out on your bike and enjoy riding it. Listen to your body. If you feel tired, have a rest for a day or two. If you feel fine, then go out for a...

To consider only the cassette is the wrong way to think about it. Cassettes and chains wear together. As the chain wears*, so the teeth of the cassette gears wear to match. So a really old chain and cassette will continue to work a lot better than a new chain on an old cassette, or an old...

£5 for a helmet? Was it made of cardboard? Nice bike though.

You know you can run a NZXT AIO without CAM right? You just won't get the RGB lights on the pump... ...which you may or may not see as a advantage ;-)

Exactly the kind of nonsense I hear from car drivers all the time.

Patch Notes

Box Hill is barely a hill. Monstrously over-rated. I mean, it is a hill of course, but compared to some of the Yorkshite climbs it's a pussy cat. Hell, it's not even the hardest hill on Ride London (Leith Hill) You wouldn't want to do it 9 times like they did in the Olympics, but once up...

Why do you not want to use SpeedFan?

Leave your captains mining until they rank up. It is believed that captains level up piloting through flying and manoeurvering the ship, not by making trades. Because mining is more ship handling intensive (navigating around asteroid fields, getting into position to mine etc) than trading...

...build a wall museum out of them: https://blogs.msdn.microsoft.com/directx/2019/01/07/wall-of-gpu-history/ Thought this was pretty cool. (edited for unintentional rhetoric)

With luck, one (or more) of your auto miner captains will have leveled up to 3 stars in piloting. That captain can be transfered over to your trader ship (via the comms interface). They'll then be able to be assigned to autotrade. If not, then leave your captains mining until they rank up. I...

Order your ship to follow the ship you're on. If it's a big (capital) ship, order it to dock with it. If not, wait till you land on the next station and order you ship to dock with the station. If your ship doesn't have a captain, promote a crew member to captain, and then order it to follow...

My trusty Focus Cayo frame died a death in the spring, and I needed to get something in quick to keep riding. Rather than rush a very expensive decision, I got something cheap in from China to tide me over the summer. Flet like a bit of a risk, but I'm not road racing anymore (only track) so I...

Pochettino didn't leave Tottenham for Real Madrid last summer. What on earth makes people think he'll leave for Manchester Untited this summer? Is he out of contract or something?

This is the thing about the X games.... On the surface, they look like games about flying around in space ships shooting things and trading stuff. And yes, they are games about that. But I always found the real games were: a) bumbling around learning the game, working out the systems...

It's been out less than a week. Yes folk are still playing it. Egosoft have been incredibly reactive to fixing bugs and making (admitidely) small changes. Rumour has it they're toying with the 'war' settings that could dial up conflict, with a potential beta release in a couple of days...

I'm not sure I'd recomend a HOTAS just for this game. There are genuine concerns about the long term ecconomy in the game; in that because the enemies aren't enough of a threat to the player or NPCs, ship replacements aren't therefore in high enough demand, and hence the whole economy grinds to...

Both. I have a HOTAS stick to use when I'm flying around exploring, scanning, manual trading, dogfighting, etc.... basically when dossing around in a spaceship. You will however deffinately need easy access to the mouse (and keyboard) for when you're managing your fleet, looking for trades in...

There's a very important option in the Settings>Gameplay Settings menu. Turning ON 'Maintain Speed While In Menus' will allow you to continue at high speed in 'Travel Mode' while you're pottering about in the map or ship information screens. Was driving me nuts till I found that out. (also...
