I just finished Shadeslinger, Ripple System 1. I enjoyed it a lot, though I think some of the MMO aspects are somewhat worn out for me after having plauyed a dozen of the damn games over the years. I expect future books will be less generic MMO and more evolved, which is fine.

The US Senate didn't propose this. A member of the US Senate (known for this kind of bullshit) sent a letter to Biden about it. I don't even know if Sen Warren is on whatever subcommittee would be responsible to craft this kind of legislation. edit: she is on the taxation subcomittee...

I played vanilla Factorio for a brief time and never got into megabases that process 1k+ SPM or whatever. For most solutions (build masssssive bases) the logistical challenges of megabases is pretty different to Space Exploration which has highly diverse recipes and relatively low throughput of...

Solving this without rail chain signals is probably impossible. https://wiki.factorio.com/Rail_chain_signal It's non-trivial to understand but once you get used to them become super obvious. Chain rail signals in, rail signals out. Note that bidirectional rails is often considered bad...

My recommendation is to just bounce around the different zones and try to enjoy the process.

The way I do ratios is with Helmod where I create this production block and then roughly create the right ratios. Beyond the ridiculous amount of naquitite stacks going through, this processing is an absolute monster with 6 solid inputs, 5 liquid inputs and 5 outputs.

At some point when I upgrade this factory the big change is to have the rail cut through the center. and offload on both sides. This will increase how much direct insertion from buffer chest to pulverizer, which is better UPS. It'll also simplify my inputs/outputs a bit being able to use the...

Built my first Naqium Ingot factory, pretty happy with it. downscaled: full pic https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/53666399892_0e6e891ce4_o.jpg Naquitite processing is notoriously busy because it has to be mined outside the solar system and only stacks till ten. Most people do an...

war+dru is pretty easy to fit into any group that has two slots and is easy to make a new group. You'll be fine.

Loved the first one, excited for this too. I never got into any of the DLC for the first game, not sure if I missed out.

Just made the mistake of updating my mods, which has been safe for Space Exploration 0.6. Unfortunately Earandel changed a bunch of shit including making vitamelange production way harder and I have to redo a bunch of shit. I guess this only impacts Krastorio2 users. I'm trying to debate where...

lmao, they haven't fixed anything and instead published a busted ass DLC? Sad.

I don't know if Project Nevada is still supported, but I wouldn't play FNV again without it. https://www.nexusmods.com/newvegas/mods/40040 I also loved Warzones, but it kinda makes the game over the top for a first playthrough. https://www.nexusmods.com/newvegas/mods/40980

I think having one nasty CME go through your factory enriches the experience. What happens to your Factorissimo buildings when they get btfo?

fake

I knew this day would come. (My Energy Glaive trailed through one of my outposts, destroying it)

yep. And if you're focusing on one thing, you'll be tempted to overbuild it to shit just to "finish" it before moving on. OR endlessly tweaking and watching it while ignoring the rest of your factory. Or building it and it'll break immediately because of one wrong circuit or wrong inserter...

Behold, Chungus S.S., which will take me beyond the stars. I'm trying to figure out how to get to an asteroid field in deep space to get that sweet, sweet naquitite and have no idea what I'm doing. At least this is an embarrasing piece of turd I know sucks from the get go.

The redo never ends for me, lol. This entire game I've been thinking, "OK I unlocked XXX, now I can build the last of these factories". Then I either unlock a new tech, change demand or just learn more about the game and then look at my previously built masterpiece in disgust. The introduction...

Speaking of spending hours fixing things that aren't broken, I rehauled my rocket transmissions from my mall on Nauvis. Like most SE players, in my factory each planet outpost has its own rocket landing that receives all the items for the outpost. Unlike most players, I built the Nauvis side to...

I'm at almost 700 hours. It's on the higher side of K2SE players from what I gather. I barely played Factorio before starting it and am playing ineffectively. I've realized that although agonizing over the details of each factory is mostly a waste of time, it's the part I enjoy the most. I've...

So I toyed with the idea of compressing trains even further and tried adding multiple inputs to my train. I just built my Matter 1 science using this idea and am pretty excited about it. There are three train stations that have three inputs each and one that has two inputs, letting me...

Yeah the patch notes have a lot of good changes this month. https://forums.daybreakgames.com/eq/index.php?threads/test-update-04-09-2024-patch-notes-and-discussions.297422/

I finished scanning Koskomino, my first planet I'm eradicating biters on. It's huge, a radius of 8049 and with a threat of 33% that's a loooot of biters. Going to be a while even with 130 GW or whatever of beam emitters exterminating bugs. I'm not ramping up more solar emitters because I still...

It's funny how many tv shows and movies I won't bother considering, regardless of reviews, unless people here say it's good. I didn't watch the first movie and the sequel is one of those movies.

I use pre-Luclin models for everything, which means I can't tell any level of prestige from armor since everyone has long ago dyed what they want. Like Rajaah said ornamentations killed any prestige from weapons because even if you loot a mega weapon from a raid expansion and chose not to put an...

Hello fellow late 30 year olds and 40 year olds. I see father time is also fucking you over. I've been curious about this topic for a bit but haven't thoroughly researched it yet. Like most of you I want to create a good checklist of de-aging. Recently I've been: Eating whole foods I create...

I'm guessing there's server congestion that isn't alleviated by picks, which is why they introduce queues, but I'm also kinda curious what would happen if they didn't have queues and what could be done to alleviate that type of congestion.

At some level the best thing for "EverQuest" is if DPG goes down and the EQ IP is abandoned or becomes totally different. Doing something to open source DBG's version of EQ and collaborate with the EQ emu communities would produce much better than the skeleton crew being paid wage slaves is...

I always thought that was an underutilized feature. It'd be interesting if they tried giving players an option to have a specific color (ex: Orange) if they got all the achievements for a given expansion (including Vanquisher), maxed out the evolving item for an expansion, etc. There's not...

Curious George? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Curious_George_(book)

Good luck on the circuits for transmitting stuff. It's pretty rewarding to get it all to work. I think the way I did it is dumb but I don't want to redo it all. For randomization I don't know. I think you're guaranteed to have: The same nauvis orbit busted ass station The crashed ship (rush it...

Most posts in the political forum are made by a small group of degenerates on welfare who try to outvirtue each other all day.

Comparing two specific things isn't bad. These are perfectly serviceable jokes if used as part of a larger bit as a callback. Write a list of Mitch Hedburg one liners comparing simulation theory with donuts. The one liner should make a unique observation that's mostly false but has a nugget of...
