The captain offers example after example of item that surely can\u2019t be transported in deep space, followed by the cartoon\u2019s grating refrain \u201cNo worries, it\u2019ll STORE ALL!\u201d\n\nAnd like their commercials, the products of the Stor*All corporation have become a seamless part of the background noise of everyday life in the modern Empire. Any individual UEE Citizen would be hard-pressed to go a day without somewhere coming into contact with its product, and the prospect of somehow going without goods that were at some point shipped inside a Stor*All container is unthinkable: nearly 50% of all items transported between two atmospheres will make their journey in a Store*All unit, a truly amazing market share given the simplicity of the product\u2019s design.\n\nStor*All was incorporated in 2745 on Lo as a Corel Limited Liability Corporation. The company was originally known as TransGo and underwent nearly a dozen marketing-oriented name changes (including both \u201cSTUFF-IT\u201d and \u201cShiploads\u201d) before finally finding success when coupled with the utilitarian image that comes with the Stor*All brand. Investors settled on Lo as the headquarters in order to take advantage of the then-burgeoning trade between the UEE and the Banu Protectorate.\n\nThe company has been notoriously litigious, both on the offense and the defense. Stor*All has filed hundreds and hundreds of patents with the UEE government, running the gamut from deserved (\u201cnano-molecular impact pad weaving mechanism\u201d) to wholly unreasonable (\u201ccube-shaped cargo area for spaceflight purposes\u201d) and is quick to defend them from any potential competitor. One look-and-feel lawsuit against Alliance-Conway Shipping Goods has dragged through the courts at a glacial pace: after eight years, it shows no sign of pending resolution.\n\nAnother ongoing legal issue is the company\u2019s enthusiastic protection of its name. Fearing that the term will become commonly applied to any space transport unit, Stor*All puts hundreds of thousands of credits each year into a parallel advertising campaign aimed at reminding consumers that what they sell are Stor*All brand containers and not \u201cStor*Alls.\u201d (This has the added benefit of enforcing the idea that a Stor*All unit is of superior make to anything else on the market.)\n\nMore often than not, however, Stor*All\u2019s legal department makes the news for their tendency to target unrelated businesses with similar names. In recent years, they have shuttered everything from Sammy\u2019s Sure Haul Diner on MacArthur to Terra\u2019s fashionable ALL STORE clothing importer. (As unsurprised onlookers are quick to point out, ALL STORE just happened to ship goods using exclusively branded Conway containers.)\n\nProduction & Business Model\nOne of the most common questions asked by those not involved in the intricacies of interstellar trading is: where do Stor*All containers come from? Stor*All containers are the odd product that can appear throughout every hangar, dockyard and factory floor in known space without actually having a clear owner. The perhaps surprising answer is that every Stor*All container is actually a rental unit. Containers are rented for a small fee when goods are approved for off-world shipping; this fee is nearly always taken into account as part of the price of the goods themselves. The economics of this process are practically invisible to the naked eye: the trading system has evolved to the point where container rental is fully institutionalized.\n\nThe standard Stor*All container is rated for 500 jumps and the company takes quality control extremely serious in this regard. Vast quantities of expired containers are sold at low prices to less reputable shippers for permanent use. Sometimes called \u201cghosts,\u201d these can typically be identified by blotches of newer paint covering the Stor*All logo. Stor*All has no liability for containers shipped in a \u201cghost,\u201d and most insurance companies refuse to compensate users who suffer a loss while making use of the retired containers.\n\nProduct Line\nWhile Stor*All\u2019s corporate presence (and associated advertising) thrives on a sense of the ridiculous, their product does not. The standard Stor*All Big Box cargo container is more than an empty crate for transporting goods: it\u2019s a high-tech container solution with thousands of man-years of engineering behind it, a rock-solid piece of equipment that genuinely is built with the goal of storing everything possible.\n\nStor*All produces thousands of different container SKUs, everything from half-meter rad-shielded valuables containers to twelve-meter climate-controlled shipping crates used on larger MISC Hull ships. While there is a unit for every possible shipping need, the containers most commonly used by private enterprise spacers today are Stor*All Mini Cargo Pods and Stor*All Big Box Cargo models.\n\nBig Box (called Tough-Guy before 2935) is the standard expandable cargo series from Stor*All. Big Box units are tough, with a Titan-grade metal exterior, a ribbed body skeleton and a cushioned super-reinforced ablative rubber interior. The original Big Box Model A is perhaps the most familiar \u2018cargo container\u2019 within Human space, used for everything from the standard attach point on the Aurora CL to makeshift enclosures on hostile planets (upon retirement). Variant Big Box units have been designed for individual spacecraft; for example, with the rise in popularity of civilian Hornet models, Stor*All has designed the Big Box Model H using the same protective technology but with a form factor that allows it to slot into a Hornet\u2019s turret system.\n\nOne step down from the Big Box, the Mini Cargo Pod is a five-rating shipping container useable by small craft, including and most notably by the standard model Roberts Aurora. Capable of shipping a modest quantity of bulk goods on long distance runs, MCPs are extremely common.As they are frequently mounted externally, MCPs have a layer of radioactive shielding not present on internal models and can be equipped with additional hardware such as scan dampeners. MCPs are frequently transferred in flight, and they can safely be left in orbital pickup yards for long durations.","de_DE":"Sie m\u00fcssten unter einem Felsen leben, um nicht mit Stor-Alls ber\u00fchmt grellen kommerziellen Sendungen vertraut zu sein, die ein Cartoon-Tier unbestimmter Herkunft zeigen (popul\u00e4re Theorien reichen von Terraner Dachs bis hin zu tiefen Asteroidenpelzkrebsen) und einem ungl\u00fccklichen Transportkapit\u00e4n erkl\u00e4ren, dass die Frachtcontainer der Stor-All Big Box-Serie alle ihre Bed\u00fcrfnisse erf\u00fcllen k\u00f6nnen. Der Kapit\u00e4n gibt ein Beispiel nach dem anderen f\u00fcr einen Gegenstand, der sicher nicht im Weltraum transportiert werden kann, gefolgt von dem Gitterrezept des Cartoons \"No worries, it'll STORE ALL\".\n\nUnd wie ihre Werbespots sind die Produkte des Stor-All-Konzerns nahtlos in den Hintergrund des Alltags im modernen Reich eingegliedert. Jeder einzelne UEE-B\u00fcrger w\u00e4re schwer zu erreichen, ohne irgendwo mit seinem Produkt in Ber\u00fchrung zu kommen, und die Aussicht, irgendwann auf Waren zu verzichten, die irgendwann in einem Stor-All-Container verschifft wurden, ist undenkbar: Fast 50% aller zwischen zwei Atmosph\u00e4ren transportierten Waren werden ihre Reise in einer Store-All-Einheit antreten, ein wirklich erstaunlicher Marktanteil aufgrund der Einfachheit des Designs des Produkts.\n\nStor-All wurde 2745 auf Lo als Corel Limited Liability Corporation gegr\u00fcndet. Das Unternehmen, das urspr\u00fcnglich als TransGo bekannt war und fast ein Dutzend marketingorientierter Namens\u00e4nderungen (einschlie\u00dflich \"STUFF-IT\" und \"Shiploads\") durchlief, fand schlie\u00dflich Erfolg, wenn es mit dem utilitaristischen Image der Marke Stor-All kombiniert wurde. Die Investoren entschieden sich f\u00fcr Lo als Hauptsitz, um den damals boomenden Handel zwischen der UEE und dem Banu Protektorat zu nutzen.\n\nDas Unternehmen ist notorisch prozessf\u00e4hig gewesen, sowohl in der Offensive als auch in der Verteidigung. Stor-All hat Hunderte und Aberhunderte von Patenten bei der UEE-Regierung angemeldet, die von verdienter (\"nanomolekularer Schlagkissenweberei\") bis hin zu v\u00f6llig unvern\u00fcnftiger (\"w\u00fcrfelf\u00f6rmige Ladefl\u00e4che f\u00fcr die Raumfahrt\") reichen und sie schnell gegen jeden potenziellen Wettbewerber verteidigen. Eine Look-and-Feel-Klage gegen Alliance-Conway Shipping Goods hat sich in eisigem Tempo durch die Gerichte geschleppt: Nach acht Jahren zeigt sie keine Anzeichen einer anstehenden L\u00f6sung.\n\nEin weiteres aktuelles Rechtsproblem ist der begeisterte Schutz des Namens des Unternehmens. Aus Angst, dass der Begriff auf jede Raumtransporteinheit \u00fcblich wird, setzt Stor-All jedes Jahr Hunderttausende von Credits in eine parallele Werbekampagne ein, um die Verbraucher daran zu erinnern, dass sie Stor-All\u00ae Markencontainer und nicht \"Stor-Alls\" verkaufen. (Dies hat den zus\u00e4tzlichen Vorteil, dass die Idee durchgesetzt wird, dass eine Stor-All-Einheit eine bessere Marke als alles andere auf dem Markt ist.)\n\nIn den meisten F\u00e4llen macht die Rechtsabteilung von Stor-All jedoch die Nachrichten f\u00fcr ihre Tendenz, sich auf unabh\u00e4ngige Unternehmen mit \u00e4hnlichen Namen zu konzentrieren. In den letzten Jahren haben sie alles versperrt, vom Sammy's Sure Haul Diner auf MacArthur bis hin zum modischen ALL STORE Bekleidungsimporteur von Terra. (Wie wenig \u00fcberraschend ist, weisen die Zuschauer schnell darauf hin, dass ALL STORE nur zuf\u00e4llig Waren mit ausschlie\u00dflich gebrandeten Conway-Containern versendet hat.)\n\nProduktions- und Gesch\u00e4ftsmodell\nEine der h\u00e4ufigsten Fragen, die von denen gestellt werden, die nicht an den Feinheiten des interstellaren Handels beteiligt sind, lautet: Woher kommen die Stor-All-Container? Stor-All-Container sind das seltsame Produkt, das in jedem Hangar, jeder Werft und Fabrikhalle im bekannten Raum auftauchen kann, ohne tats\u00e4chlich einen klaren Besitzer zu haben. Die vielleicht \u00fcberraschende Antwort ist, dass jeder Stor-All-Container eigentlich eine Mieteinheit ist. Container werden gegen eine geringe Geb\u00fchr gemietet, wenn Waren f\u00fcr den Versand au\u00dferhalb der Welt zugelassen sind; diese Geb\u00fchr wird fast immer als Teil des Warenpreises selbst ber\u00fccksichtigt. Die \u00d6konomie dieses Prozesses ist f\u00fcr das blo\u00dfe Auge praktisch unsichtbar: Das Handelssystem hat sich so weit entwickelt, dass die Containermiete vollst\u00e4ndig institutionalisiert ist.\n\nDer Standard Stor-All Container ist f\u00fcr 500 Spr\u00fcnge ausgelegt und das Unternehmen nimmt die Qualit\u00e4tskontrolle in dieser Hinsicht sehr ernst. Gro\u00dfe Mengen abgelaufener Container werden zu niedrigen Preisen an weniger seri\u00f6se Verlader zur dauerhaften Nutzung verkauft. Manchmal auch als \"Geister\" bezeichnet, lassen sich diese typischerweise durch Flecken neuerer Farbe erkennen, die das Stor-All-Logo bedecken. Stor-All haftet nicht f\u00fcr Container, die in einem \"Geist\" verschifft werden, und die meisten Versicherungsgesellschaften weigern sich, Nutzer zu entsch\u00e4digen, die einen Verlust erleiden, wenn sie die ausgemusterten Container benutzen.\n\nProduktlinie\nW\u00e4hrend die Unternehmenspr\u00e4senz von Stor-All (und die damit verbundene Werbung) von einem Gef\u00fchl des L\u00e4cherlichen lebt, tut es ihr Produkt nicht. Der Standard Stor-All Big Box Frachtcontainer ist mehr als eine leere Kiste f\u00fcr den Warentransport: Es ist eine High-Tech-Containerl\u00f6sung mit Tausenden von Mannjahren Technik dahinter, ein felsenfestes Ger\u00e4t, das wirklich mit dem Ziel gebaut ist, alles M\u00f6gliche zu lagern.\n\nStor-All produziert Tausende von verschiedenen Container-SKUs, von halben Metern radabgeschirmten Wertgegenst\u00e4nden bis hin zu zw\u00f6lf Metern klimatisierten Transportkisten, die auf gr\u00f6\u00dferen MISC Hull-Schiffen eingesetzt werden. W\u00e4hrend es eine Einheit f\u00fcr jeden m\u00f6glichen Transportbedarf gibt, sind die Container, die heute am h\u00e4ufigsten von privaten Abstandshaltern verwendet werden, Stor-All Mini Cargo Pods und Stor-All Big Box Cargo Modelle.\n\nBig Box (vor 2935 Tough-Guy genannt) ist die standardm\u00e4\u00dfig erweiterbare Ladungsserie von Stor-All. Big Box-Einheiten sind robust, mit einer Titan-Metall-Au\u00dfenseite, einem gerippten K\u00f6rperskelett und einem gepolsterten, superverst\u00e4rkten, ablativen Gummiinnenraum. Die originale Big Box Model A ist vielleicht der bekannteste \"Frachtcontainer\" im menschlichen Raum, der f\u00fcr alles verwendet wird, vom Standardbefestigungspunkt an der Aurora CL bis hin zu provisorischen Geh\u00e4usen auf feindlichen Planeten (im Ruhestand). Variantenreiche Big Box-Einheiten wurden f\u00fcr einzelne Raumfahrzeuge entwickelt; mit der zunehmenden Popularit\u00e4t ziviler Hornet-Modelle hat Stor-All beispielsweise die Big Box Model H mit der gleichen Schutztechnologie, aber mit einem Formfaktor entwickelt, der es erm\u00f6glicht, sie in das Turmsystem einer Hornet einzubauen.\n\nEin Schritt von der Big Box entfernt, ist der Mini Cargo Pod ein f\u00fcnfstufiger Schiffscontainer, der von kleinen Schiffen genutzt werden kann, einschlie\u00dflich und vor allem vom Standardmodell Roberts Aurora. MCPs sind in der Lage, eine geringe Menge an Sch\u00fcttgut auf Langstreckenl\u00e4ufen zu transportieren, da sie h\u00e4ufig extern montiert werden, verf\u00fcgen sie \u00fcber eine radioaktive Abschirmschicht, die bei internen Modellen nicht vorhanden ist, und k\u00f6nnen mit zus\u00e4tzlicher Hardware wie beispielsweise Scan-D\u00e4mpfern ausgestattet werden. MCPs werden h\u00e4ufig im Flug transferiert und k\u00f6nnen sicher \u00fcber lange Zeitr\u00e4ume auf den orbitalen Pickup Yards verbleiben.","zh_CN":"You would need to be living under a rock not to be familiar with Stor*All\u2019s famously garish commercial broadcasts, which feature a cartoon animal of indeterminate origin (popular theories range from Terran badger to deep asteroid fur crab) explaining to a hapless transport captain that Stor*All Big Box series cargo containers can meet his every need.
