I'm fine with an "OmG Battaray err0r!!!!1"-warning that I can send to /dev/null as long as it works. I'm more worried about performance, as this is a gaming laptop that is used as such.

I could give you an answer now, but that answer would be obsolete by the time of filling the paperwork. Only uuidgen knows my true answer.

I realized a few years ago that my GF inadvertently solved this issue for me: She likes registering for anything that provides a discount, so I use her phone number.

"Are you a member?"
"Nope, but my GF probably is..", and 90% of the time I am correct.

Hobbies: 10/10. Factorio Dpace Age is out, and I've started tinkering with music making again.

Work: 9/10. I'll spare you the boring details, but I was able to deliver some great news yesterday, and my design doc draft is now what we'll be doing for the next two years. The next step is to get budget approval for 5 additional hires.

Family: 8/10. Youngest one has the sniffles, but she's in good spirit and watching Gabbys Dollhouse.

Finances: 9/10. Payday today, and all of the bills that are normally due today were paid ahead of time.

All in all, pretty good.

Space science factory platform is done and working well (Nauvis is the bottleneck for SPM). Once I have cliff explosives unlocked I'll expand the Nauvis base to a more proper scale suitable for my playstyle.

In addition to that I've built an interplanetary platform, but early testing reveals that it needs some work/rework to be capable of making the trip without getting destroyed.

Loving the QoL changes, by the way.

An end implies that the factory cannot grow any further. Preposterous!

It is. I want to play the game as the devs intended, but I usually play without biters. So I turned nauvis enemies off while leaving them as default for the other planets.

The engineer wakes up and it was all a dream.
And he was dead all along.
And he plunges into the lava while giving a thumbs up.
And he's Keyser Soze.
And he's actually a she.

Neither. By "we" I mean my colleagues and I at work. It's a proprietary thing we use. I cannot share the name as it's too easily googleable and doxxable, as it's a highly niche system.

"I present to you the next generation of thingamawidgets. The future of thingamawidging: The SVeLNeRBLoMT^tm^ "

I can sort out the blue aspect through cheap spray paint, but I need to do some research on making a 19" rack round...

Heh, that made me realize that the trademark of the system we're currently using, which is abbreviated into four letters, should have the first three in the opposite order.

There's a lot of context that I cannot share without making it a two week course in what I do for a living, but to put it simply, both versatility and modularity are descriptors that make sense together for the intended audience, as the system can be one without the other. Plus versatile refers to the software, and modular refers to the hardware.
