To all SSC Station occupants

Thank you for the donations over the past year (2024), it is much appreciated. I am still trying to figure out how to migrate the forums to another community software (probably phpbb) but in the meantime I have updated the forum software to the latest version. SSC has been around a while so their is some very long time members here still using the site, thanks for making SSC home and sorry I haven't been as vocal as I should be in the forums I will try to improve my posting frequency.

Thank you again to all of the members that do take the time to donate a little, it helps keep this station functioning on the outer reaches of space.

I have to ask s2odan, in your last avatar, the one with the late great Roy Scheider in Jaws (he was great in 2010 also), I recognised the face coming out of the water, but for the life of me I couldn't put a name to it. Who was that?

That's Samuel L. Jackson. I can't for the life of me understand why anybody would go to the effort of actually doing that. Is there some in-joke floating around about him?

He's scarier than any motherfin' shark in any motherfin' film.

Like your fat-man in a spacestation chair 🙂 Its just a bit of fun, it obviously gives some people somewhere amusement, I have loads of them scoured from the internet.

This one always made me laugh, Roy Scheider's reaction is amusing to me 🙂

Yeah, I laughed the first time, when it was a shark. (: I just thought there might be some deeper meaning, or a running gag of which I wasn't aware, which meant it was him and not, say, Ron Perlman.

The "fat-man in a spacestation chair" picture was put together as my photo on the corporate intranet where I work. My place of work isn't as cool as it might sound from that.

Brianetta certainly doesn't look fat to me, but then I'm from the USA. 😆

I'm not sure which is cooler; a fully operational difference engine, or an office chair in orbit. I suppose the ultimate would be this:
