LinuxFest Northwest Interviews:

Brought to you by: System76

Rob’s new System76 PC!

“You guys weren’t kidding, they really do pay attention to all the small details. There’s even a removable, cleanable filter on the bottom at the vent intake! Now that’s class! It says we really care about what we sell and go the extra mile to make sure it lasts as long as possible. And from the moment of my order, until and after it shipped, Emma was right there answering any questions I had and letting me know what the status was. A very personal touch you just don’t find anymore. You can bank on any future computer I purchase will have the System76 logo on it.”

Rhode Island Q&A | STOked 93

chris — Mon, 08 Aug 2011 22:15:32 +0000

Star Trek Online’s lead designer, Al Rivera, joins us to chat about the new Rhode Island variant, STO’s latest Tier 2 science starship! In another segment of “Rumor Busting” he also lays down long-term plans on bringing more and more starships to the game, new special abilities, and so much more behind-the-scenes info.

Then the Foundry Files team returns to report on their latest player created adventure, and we cover the community’s STO beginner tips and collection of “tribal knowledge” that all captains must know.

Rumor Busting with Al “CaptainGeko” Rivera:

Is there a canon reference that this ability is based on? (Picard maneuver? TNG – Peak Performance? Voyager – Basics?)
How good is the cloak?
Can the decoy be destroyed? How resilient is it? It does damage, right?
What does “Aggression Stealth” mean?
What’s the C-Store cost? Bought with emblems?
Is the current Boff setup finalized?
Any chance of a T5 version?
KDF equivalent?
The tooltip for the console lists like 2 dozen skills that affect it… are there any that affect it more than others?

Mission Replay and other ship interior functions, great way to get missing parts of a reward set!

You need to go through 11 grades of spent skill points to get promoted to the next rank. So many people see their 9th
