Read The Churn. It tells Amos’ story back on Earth prior to the events of the show. Well, the books but so far every clue we’ve had confirms The Churn is still relevant — and spoiler free, unless you want to wait for the show to tease out the details.

Her maintenance crew is based on the Thomas Prince - that is where she was eating, after visiting the Seung Un for repairs (and bomb placement).

Naratively speaking, we spend a lot of time watching ships arrive at noteworthy locations. They were thrusting towards the destination days or weeks earlier and that phase of flight is less interesting, the story always glosses over.

It depends. Things like New Horizons (visited Pluto) go so far that we put all the fuel we had to spare into pushing it out there as fast as possible, so it got to Pluto in a reasonable time. This meant it has no fuel for slowing, and shot past rapidly on it’s way out of the solar system. Similar to the Voyagers and

To be honest it sounds safer than keeping it in the pit near all the people, fuel, cars, oil, etc.

It never bothered me so I may not have the most valuable input on that. I’ve noticed (once pointed out by others) that they often latch onto a phrase and use it - ad nauseam.

Very good, and differing sufficiently that the TV and written stories are two sides of a similar coin, neither really being a disappointment compared to the other.

In the books Venus is a massive media event. Ships from all over the system go to Venus and the unfolding events there broadcast by hundreds of ships. Eros was a real big deal, got everyone’s attention.

It’s a great comparison, but S-G being spineless was written into the books from the beginning, back in 2012ish.

I’m borrowing from the books some but perhaps it remains true — The hybrids are likely not an antiship weapon. The hybrids were probably launched at Mars, given Nguyen’s Mars hatred backstory.

Just ressurected an abandoned 10 VM I had on my machine — Was meant to be a work desktop VM sometime last year, I never completed the migration from the 7 to 10 VM. It was two major 10 updates behind. I installed RSAT yesterday, then applied the updates - RSAT still installed and working after updates this morning.

I think that was mostly in my Downloads folder, an item I’ve been meaning to automate cleanup on for ages, but never bothered.

I’ve carried RSAT through multiple OS updates, including service packs. The only time I had to reinstall was Win7 -> Win10.

Personal theory - The boiling water impacts the taste and texture negatively, but standing them upright in the jar applies more heat to the bottoms without boiling them, while the steam cooks the tops more gently.

4GB the first time I ran it. Not huge, nice to have it working quietly in the background. Takes one more thing off my plate for maintenance.

I’ve never had RSAT removed either. That would be annoying - but I don’t think it is expected behavior.

Wonder if you suffer from what hit me a few months back - I had Duplicati setup for backups, and it failed after an update. After some digging I found that Duplicati made the dubious decision to keep configuration files within the C:\Windows tree, so a major update wiped those files (actually, moved them to

They disable it by default because your OS should never take it upon itself to delete user files without permission.

Wow. Really? Have you looked at any of the folks who would be judging your moral integrity under such a law?
