What is Black Prophecy?

Black Prophecy is a fast-paced 3D real-time combat space MMO with state of the art visuals. Both the Player-versus-Players combat and an exciting storyline in a rich universe are important aspects of the game.

This game looks awesome. I've been following it for awhile now and it looks like they're finally gearing up to release it this year. Be sure to register for the beta here.

It's the love-child of EVE Online and FreeSpace 2. Amazing graphics, PvP combat, modular ship designs, and more. Best of all, it's free-to-play. More questions? Check out the game's FAQ page.

does it have something like eve's sovereignty system?

Not exactly, but it has something similar. In Black Prophecy, you capture resource areas that automatically send resources to your faction and clan/guild (if you're in one). These resource areas can be contested by an enemy faction and if you lose it, you lose the resources that would have been generated in that area. As you may assume, you can defend important areas to prevent enemy factions from taking it over. I don't think that's the "main focus" of the game though - just a part of it. Like EVE Online, there will be instance-based PvE or PvP missions that you can do solo or as a team.

reminds me of jumpgate (another space mmo), hope it has trackir support its more or less standard in flying games now

It reminded me of Jumpgate Evolution too. As for TrackIR support, it would be nice if they added that. As it stands now, I don't think it's supported. Is it really a standard? I only know of one game that has TrackIR support: ArmA II.

Can I pilot my ship with a flightstick? That's really the ONLY thing I disliked about Eve Online.

Click-to-fly, and click-to-target, sucked.

Will Black Prophecy support Joysticks, especially joysticks

for flight simulations?

In Black Prophecy you will be able to control your ship with the classical mouse/keyboard setup but also with a gamepad or a flightstick.

    • finally [Taskbar] Taskbar customization just got easier. As we continue to make improvements to the Taskbar experience mentioned last month, we've introduced a dedicated Taskbar Size setting, making it simpler to find, understand, and personalize your ideal taskbar experience.
    • Let me get this straight... It was a web interface for Gmail, so if privacy at Google wasn't concerning enough you'd be going through two companies. And their big feature was the very thing that would make people consider dumping Gmail.
    • Microsoft's fast coding model MAI-Code-1-Flash comes to Copilot Business and Enterprise by Karthik Mudaliar Microsoft’s recently announced MAI-Code-1-Flash model is now generally available to GitHub Copilot Business and Copilot Enterprise customers. With this support, organizations can have more centralized policy controls and billing while finally being able to use Microsoft’s lightweight, first-party coding model. According to GitHub’s announcement, Business and Enterprise plan administrators must enable the MAI-Code-1-Flash policy in Copilot settings before developers can access the model. Microsoft says that MAI-Code-1-Flash is for fast, iterative coding work rather than the most demanding architectural or debugging tasks. GitHub’s official model comparison page says that the model is great for "general-purpose coding and writing," while it excels at fast, accurate code completions and explanations Microsoft introduced MAI-Code-1-Flash on June 2 as part of a broader collection of internally developed MAI models. GitHub subsequently expanded support to Copilot CLI, the Copilot cloud agent, GitHub.com chat, GitHub Mobile, Visual Studio, JetBrains IDEs, Eclipse, and Xcode, but said support for managed Business and Enterprise customers was still on the way. In Microsoft’s own benchmark testing, MAI-Code-1-Flash scored 51.2% on SWE-Bench Pro, compared with 35.2% for Anthropic’s Claude Haiku 4.5. Microsoft also claimed that the model used up to 60% fewer tokens on SWE-Bench Verified. Do note that these are vendor-run results rather than independent measurements. The model is billed at provider list pricing under GitHub’s usage-based system. GitHub currently lists MAI-Code-1-Flash at $0.75 per million input tokens, $0.075 per million cached input tokens, and $4.50 per million output tokens. For organizations, the main incentive to use MAI-Code-1-Flash is likely to be efficiency rather than maximum capability. A smaller model that responds quickly and limits unnecessary output is quite useful for repetitive agent tasks at scale, especially after GitHub Copilot’s move toward usage-based billing. The "Flash" model is recommended for fast work and not necessarily for huge repositories with loads of context. It's better if teams compare their output with other larger models, especially if they're working on security-sensitive changes and complex, multi-file work.
    • yes AND no the "original" or plain/normal Optiplex 7010 won't be getting any more new firmware updates BUT the Optiplex SFF/SFF Plus {small form factor}, Micro/Micro Plus & Tower/Tower Plus 7010 editions DO get new updates such as this new one   and here are similar guides from the Dell web site for Dell systems: https://www.dell.com/support/kbdoc/en-us/000390990/secure-boot-transition-faq https://www.dell.com/support/kbdoc/en-us/000347876/microsoft-2011-secure-boot-certificate-expiration
