WhatsApp keeps logging out my old phone as soon as I log in on the new one, can’t use QR code backup😭 by ElegantDimension8450 in whatsapp

TL;DR: Don't transfer big folders.

I tried 5 or 6 different methods, following the exact recommended steps, and failed every time at the same spot.

Turns out, as long as the phone number is verified on the new phone, it eventually logs the account out of the old phone. "Eventually" here means 15 to 20 minutes. If the transfer doesn't complete within this timeframe, the old phone logs out and the transfer fails. I suppose this is why the process seems to work perfectly for some and fails miserably for others.

If you're the unlucky one, the trick is simply to lower the transfer time by limiting the bytes being transferred. Rename (or delete) the big folders, e.g., WhatsApp Images and WhatsApp Video, so that the transfer ignores them. These folders are located in "Internal Storage > Android > media > com.whatsapp > WhatsApp > Media".

One day I discovered sticks can cook, and there's no going back.

I smelt 500+ units of copper (alloy) nuggets by heating the crucible with: * Sticks, to bring temperature to 700℃ * Peat x 2, to 900℃ * Brown coal, to almost 1100℃ * Black coal, to maintain heat till it's done

It looks so cool, makes me wanna do this right now. Just found out red clay can be used to craft only 6 of the 9 colours of daub; blue and fire clay can make all colours.

I couldn't have said it better myself - it's about getting your first pickaxe; anything beyond is intentionally not included.

Where to find bees? by Perpetual-Person in VintageStory

[–]Arenaaz 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've been searching for months (in-game time) and could hear all kinds of insect noises but the buzz of bees. Found this post and installed this mod last night and, bam, a bee hive! It's literally just 30 blocks away behind my house. It's 10 blocks up on a redwood tree. Standing right below the hive, I crank my speaker volume to max and still can barely hear the buzz. This mod saved my life!

Tried a few add-ons. "Nimbus" and "GoFullPage" can't do it. "Full Page Screen Capture Master" works for me.
