True and agreed. I do still plan to create an account over there soon though. (I'm thinking First Contact day would be fitting, in a way.)
Beat me to posting by 10 minutes. Ha!
(Well, at least 10 minutes as far as I can tell here on kbin.)
Now I understand why they didn't have a Mudd's Bundle sale this week.

The Market tends to always be a "pass" for me, since it's stuff I already have from actually doing the events. (Some of) the bundles are tempting at times though. That list is shortening for me, in general. The MMO part of the game has lost its luster for me these days.
"except bundles"
Really? Thanks. Guess I'll keep my Zen then.
Adding an edit:
I want to also note that Mudd's Market sales are usually 75% off not 50% off.
A Holographic Janeway bridge officer, the Kuumaarke Visionary Ground Set, and the Terran Sommerville could all be yours in Mudd's Market on PC!

Starship Trait - Temporal Artifact Scan: Scans for chroniton radiation from a Temporal Artifact aboard enemy ships. Once the Artifact is located, defeating that ship will drop it into space as a pickup. Collecting an Artifact provides a significant bonus to Critical Severity until leaving the map. This effect has a long cooldown, but eventually another Artifact will be located.

Oh, got it. I didn't realize Console had started the 14th so soon.
That must mean that Kael just used the wrong tags (since it's in the PC news area), rather than a duplicate like I originally thought.
In any case, have fun, Console players! It's a fun set of episodes so far.
I saw this post too, but it looks like a duplicate of one made in January. Is it not?
Indeed. I hope he's doing OK too, sounds like he's going through some stuff.
As far as my posts, I'll still try to do things as timely as possible and perhaps start working on an account on startrek.website. ¯_(ツ)_/¯
It is. I've read about that and wondered if it was happening. There are a few discussions popping up about it too, so hopefully it will be addressed.
(I'm also considering just migrating or creating an account on startrek.website. We'll see.) Thanks for letting me know.
Sorry for the delay in posting my summary; kbin was down. Again.

Would anyone prefer that I summarize the Patch Notes for brevity the way I do other posts? Or are the original Patch Notes brief enough?
For example, a rephrasing of today's:
- Fixed issue preventing certain Warbirds from equipping Borg Kingdom Interceptor Probes.
- Corrected the Fleet Power Network console to only reduce Weapon Firing Cycles cooldowns, not all cooldowns.
- Addressed disrupter ground visuals for various weapons and drones.
- Fixed display issue with Kurleth Phaser Pistol.
- Updated 14th Anniversary bundle description for item claims in the Zen Store.
Check out the exciting changes coming to Star Trek Online in our latest patch notes!

-
Resolved an issue that was preventing the following ships from being able to equip and launch the Borg Kingdom Interceptor Probes: Kelvin Timeline T'laru Intel Carrier Warbird [T6], Ra'nodaire Support Carrier Warbird [T6], Fleet Ra'nodaire Support Carrier Warbird [T6].
-
Resolved an issue that was causing the Fleet Power Network console ability to reduce all cooldowns, rather than only providing Weapon Firing Cycle Haste.
-
Resolved a number of issues with disrupter ground visuals.
- Specifically the Full Auto, Blast and Mini gun weapon types as well as the Echo Pappa drone and Turret visuals.
-
Resolved an issue that was causing the Kurleth Phaser Pistol to display incorrectly.
-

Kbin was down for a couple days, so I wasn't able to post my summaries. Hopefully a day late isn't too late!
LLAP
This week, in addition to Bonus Zen, PC Captains can save on Klingon items and everything they need to start their adventure!

- Bonus Zen Offer: 20% extra ZEN on purchases.
- Klingon Item Sale: 25% off all Klingon items in the Zen Store.

There are some definite TNG throw-backs in this bundle. I think it'll end up being a "pass" for me though, at least for now. I am looking forward to the next C-store bundle 35% sale though, given the correction on the tommy-gun.
Just noticed that I duplicated your post about the 14th Anniversay Bundle. Sorry about that.
I'm a mod over at the kbin STO community and thought I'd start helping out by cross-posting some of my summaries to the startrek.website community as well.
Not sure how well this comment or the syncing will work, but just wanted to say hi and LLAP. I'll continue to try these cross-postings from our community to yours, unless you say otherwise.
Remember the sacrifice of Wolf 359, and take Starfleet's newest ships into the field with the 14th Anniversary Bundle!

Thank you for putting into words what I've been trying to weigh out regarding a Steam Deck.
I think your tech arrangement is similar enough to my own and therefore just what I needed to read in order to convince myself I won't miss not having one.
That's exactly the thought I had about it. (The sample return part.)
Perhaps also with a small containment field with its own power supply? Thus the smaller size would allow for more efficient use of such a field, whether by allowing it to be more secure while using the same power as a larger field or to sustain a smaller field for a longer time in cases of general power failure?
My understanding is that the "rocks" are a product of the electroplasma system being exposed to air. Whether that is some sort of coolant that is meant to seal the EPS leak in that console or some sort of EPS byproduct reacting in air, I don't remember or have a head-canon for it.
All of that said, if I form this reply into one worthy of Daystrom, then I say it is an intended safety mechanism to protect the crew against catastrophic failure of the EPS conduits.
