I SHOULD be looking at the Caspian Explorer, or getting footage for the upcoming Type 11 video. But I might have got distracted flying this gorgeous little wedge...

Few more shots of the upcoming Caspian Explorer. There's definitely some aspects this ship does better than the Mandalay and some aspects the Mandalay does better than this ship. #EliteDangerous

So. Fun fact. If you play the game Elite Dangerous, you can actually find Voyager 1 in game. I haven't taken the trek out there yet. But I want to go find it soon.
Voyager 1 is almost one light-day from Earth. The intrepid #spacecraft will cross a major distance milestone in November 2026 - 16.1 billion miles. #Voyager1 #lightday

First day in the Elite Partner Program and I get to play with this gorgeous thing - the upcoming Caspian Explorer - she's not a bad ship and she's proving to be not "just" an explorer.
Thanks to all who got me far enough to be accepted into the program, much love to you all ❤️

Been playing a little bit of this recently - "Peak"
It's a co-op hill climbing game essentially - both adorable and bloody frustrating in equal measure...

Is it just me, or is it taking a bit longer to jump between systems today in #EliteDangerous?

Bit of an odd week for the YouTube channel:
- Released by far my WORST performing video in a long, long time
- Released my BEST performing short in the entire history of the channel
Can't win them all I guess - onwards and....sideways? 🫡

There are many Panther Clippers MK2 being shown today. But this one is mine. Yet to receive a name and still undergoing it's shakedown cruise, so far this one is overall looking like a welcome addition to the hanger, in spite of a few minor issues.

I'd like to take a moment while I'm screaming about helping people and disability to address the #EliteDangerous community directly about something.
Supercruise Assist and Auto-Dock are as much Disability Aids as anything else. I'm FUCKING TIRED of people being called lazy or stupid for using them.

Rest in peace Ozzy. A true pioneer in music and an inspiration to so many bands that followed.
If there is an afterlife, I do hope he's there tearing it up and rocking out with those who left the mortal coil before him

Just parking up at Jameson Memorial for access to all the internal modules that I may need for when the Panther Clipper MK2 drops later.
Let's just hope that as far as ships go, the Panther Clipper MK2 will be a good one...

New video up today - and it got me thinking, what constitutes an old game? For me, I think if a game is legally old enough to drink, vote and fornicate, then I think it has the right to be called old - and dare I say it, retro

Oh FFS, was looking forward to the Perfect Dark reboot. Whilst Zero wasn't much to write home about, the original is a fantastic game that still forms a regular part of my rotation. #Microsoft

Replacement PSU is here! Before the Panther Clipper too.
Also it's early, but looks like no other components were taken out when the old one failed.
Thanks @corsair.com for a robust & fast RMA process on my old PSU.

Well, this is poop. Power supply died on my main gaming / editing PC last night. No warning, just a click and a dead system.
Hopefully going to put a new PSU in this weekend. Y'all cross your fingers for me that nothing else is broken...

Fired up Forza Horizon 4 last night for the first time in ages as I needed a ~3 second shot for an upcoming Elite video. Ended up playing it for an hour or two.
Got this shot, because frankly, why not?

It's taken a little while to put this one together, but it's been fun.
