The Sirius Cybernetics Complaints Department, Security-Goon Division, is rather busy nowadays.

BTW: How do I station security goons at a science outpost? I seem to fail to find the necessary friendly action  :-\...
You don't have to: security goons protect all your outposts simultaneously.

They're dumb, but they're fast.
Does that mean we're actually buying both them and whatever fast vehicle they're using at the same time, or do outposts just come with teleporters inside? :)

They actually operate on the principle that stupidity is at least as pervasive as hydrogen.

With the Andors at least you can have them gift the tech to somebody else. Then steal it from said other person.

Oh yes, Mr. Andor Speaker Sir... er, it... the Peltians urgently need your Kill-O-Zap Ray Gun technology for a humanitarian emergency.  Oh yes, I'll be happy to carry a copy to them immediately.
