Some posters put up a bunch of theorizing about that in the last thread. I think Derek did a longer write-up, but I doubt it made it to the blog. :allears: IIRC the consensus was that it is some sort of numerology thing with her, but also serves as a stupid HHGG reference in the old nerd shibboleth style.

I think it was a HHGG reference in the old nerd shibboleth style that someone at CIG convinced Sandi was a powerful numerologic integer and he's been enjoying the epic troll ever since.

The real question is, how much does it cost per kilo to send something into orbit using the space shuttle. Would $140M be enough for, say, Ben?

using https://www.rocketbuilder.com it came to 130M for an earth escape shot in Q4 (Merry Christmas Ben!). It only cost that much because I just had to add "Full Spectrum" service.

e: I assumed Ben was about 500 lbs for this, so ymmv

Oh, this is great stuff. AI perception based upon "speech, sight and sound." Awesome. I know some AI researchers who would love that tech!

Star Citizen will AI perception based on speech, sight, sound, touch, and especially smell. The most fidelitous AI perception.

Beet YES! This thread is at its best when it goes off the rails! It's not like there's anything to do until Citizencon (barring the evocati outright saying 3.0 is trash or CIG pulling another PR disaster).

Like there are actually any evocati that log in
