So, my new job requires a serious grounding in theoretical physics - which I do not have. I have been trying to catch up using galnet courses and so forth, but it turns out that's not the best way for someone like me to learn about how space works.
SO. I will not be going to Space for awhile, whilst I knuckle down and attend a hard physics course at a reputable (and unnamed) institution. Go me.

Every now and then a little victim is allowed to escape; because she smiled, because he's got freckles, because they begged. And that's how you live with yourself. That's how you slaughter millions."

If it is possible I would recommend continuing your capsuleer hard writing as you study. I am not sure the connotations of mental strain or if that is even possible but you will be grateful to return to a better clone than you left.
Best of luck Pieter. -áFear The Tribes |

I don't understand.
The issue (as I understand it, knuckledragger that I am) is that some of it is linked to applied fields and to piloting tasks and, therefore, I need to build the same muscle memory and conscious familiarisation that I would with, say, piloting a ship class.
Or, I don't know, maybe there's a degree of academic snobbery involved, with me needing to prove I can do it the old fashioned way, too? "You let one of them go, but that's nothing new is it? Every now and then a little victim is allowed to escape; because she smiled, because he's got freckles, because they begged. And that's how you live with yourself. That's how you slaughter millions."

I'm hoping we can hang out fairly regularly, Schere-suuolo. But yes, I may come crying to you with mathy problems. "You let one of them go, but that's nothing new is it?

I think I'm going planetside. It'll make hiking and running in natural surroundings super-easy and I also feel like studying under a tree, as a stereotypical luxury.

It is a particularly appropriate stereotypical luxury if one intends to study theoretical physics.
However, please do not invent any new mathematical systems. It's so bad, one practically needs a new mathematical system to keep track of all the bloody mathematical systems. I mean, really. Is it acceptable if I blame you for this, Schere, sweetie?

Some exotic Particles produced during High-Energy Physics research are Known to cause Information Errors in many Cyber-Implants, including Capsuleer implants, but have otherwise No Effect on a biological Brain of a human Person.
Thus, Pieter, take care of your Brain while performing your Physics Research. Space is Likely to still be Here when you Return.
Also, it will give you More Time to Contemplate the Statue of Yourself that I constructed as a Wedding Gift. Enjoy.

I think I can safely promise you that I will invent no new mathematical systems, Ms Noh. Promise! "You let one of them go, but that's nothing new is it?

Gosh. Well, I'm glad you liked my latest submission to Caldari Data Processing, Lady Noh! I did sort of go a little overboard, didn't I?
I'll take care of the boolean universe definitions, Pieter, you worry about the physics! I'm sure you'll do well :) |

Much obliged to you, boss. Sorry the math turned out to be harder than calculating pursuit curves and ballistic trajectories! "You let one of them go, but that's nothing new is it?

Schere, darling, I must confess I became concerned matters might have gotten a bit out of hand when you began examining the efficiency of tag and release garbage collection paradigms in the context of exothermal base seven mysticism. I mean, really, sweetie... should I send out another spa? Or perhaps another Ealurian foot masseur? Oh, that must be it! What was I thinking!?
You should have one for each foot!
Perhaps we should send a couple for Pieter as well. There's nothing quite like getting an Ealurian foot massage under a shady tree reading a nice book on low hanging fruit!

I had no idea that the Ealurian's had a special type of foot massage. Now I'm curious. It does sound like a wonderful way to study, though. "You let one of them go, but that's nothing new is it?

Do take care of yourself, Pieter.
Space shall likely still be here when you return, and I am sure most of us will attempt to to the same.

Ealurians are on the feet all day and have developed very strong hands. Turns out, few things feel better on feet than strong hands!
Two Ealurian foot... therapists (they do prefer to be called therapists, really) en route! |

Good luck with your studies and do enjoy your time out of the public spotlight, Pieter.
Let us hope that, if nothing else, your elective down-time allows some of those whose memories are short or whose opinions are suitably malleable to forget your complicity in the trade of 152 of your compatriots to Nation-loyal processing vats and the gloating nature of subsequent statements you made after choosing to continue the practice with humans of other ethnic backgrounds. -á |

Don't be foolish.
Even if he stayed star-side, that will soon be forgotten in light of whatever new and wondrous scandal will scratch the surface of the near continuous ennui of the average capsuleer's mental state.
But if you're the type that enjoys letting the door hit someone in the ass when they leave the room, who am I to stop you? We each gain gratification from our lives in our own ways. I nearly had to check your standings to make sure you weren't blue to me.. "I say that even as the holy and the righteous cannot rise beyond the highest which is in each one of you - so the wicked and the weak cannot fall lower than the lowest which is in you also. -áAnd as a single leaf turns not yellow but with the silent knowledge of the whole tree, so the wrong-doer cannot do wrong without the hidden will of you all." |
