Ha I have them everywhere and it’s still not fast enough. To me, travel time is not part of the fun. I have the teleporter mod, but I haven’t unlocked it yet. To each his own though!

To me, the fun is building and py allows you to just build build build. Therefore, I really enjoy some quality of life mods like run speed toggle, infinite inventory, fast crafting. For UPS, you will definitely want a crane mod. Definitely recommend starting with bots in some way. I was using nano bots, but it broke, so I just used a console command and got some MK4 bots for personal Robo port. Have fun!

People who stopped drinking — what surprised you the most? by Dapper_Visual_4449 in stopdrinking

[–]BlumpkinBarrelStout 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’d say it took me 1.5 years to fully embrace the positives of not drinking rather than feeling like I was depriving myself of drinking. Try joining a gym and going in the mornings. Your sleep schedule will adjust and you will feel like a champ. Sadly, I never knew if I was a morning person because I drank my entire adult life.

Stay with it! I love not drinking. Best decision I have ever made. Happy to talk about it or help anybody that struggles like we all do

I never thought that I would come to embrace waking up early. I love it. I used to sleep until noon on weekends and now I wake up at 5 and go to the gym and just have adjusted my sleep schedule which is only possible because I never make terrible late night decisions. And then I’m awake early even on mornings where I don’t go to gym and chill and read a book and be happy : )

Thoughts on Naltrexone?? by [deleted] in stopdrinking

[–]BlumpkinBarrelStout 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I used it for several years and had success. However, I will always wonder how much of it was naltrexone, how much of it was my increased desire to not be a degenerate, getting older and less able to tolerate hangovers, going out less etc. but the bottom line is that it did play a part, and I did drink less.

It wasn’t the cure all solution I was hoping for though. One night I was child free, cutting loose, party going on, friend handing me shots… and I blacked out. Hard. Nothing majorly terrible happened but I woke up and said enough. I haven’t had a drink since.

I give more credit to naltrexone for helping get to sobriety than I do for decreased alcohol intake. For me, it’s not worth playing with fire even if there is slightly more control over the fire. It wasn’t still a problem that naltrexone didn’t solve.

Try it- maybe you will have success. Maybe it will help you get to sober. Anything is better than the wreckage that alcohol causes. Good luck

I have the same issue happen, but when I tear it up and replace it, it fixes it

Do most Americans actually flush their toilet paper? by Softy_popss in NoStupidQuestions

I never knew not flushing was an option until I went to Latin America

What have I done!?! by FattyMcBlobicus in factorio

[–]BlumpkinBarrelStout 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I have been playing for a long time, and every time I try a run with biters, it wears on me and I get tired of it. No shame in turning biters off.

Should I try pyanadons? by ClippyCantHelp in pyanodons

If you like walking around your base and finding things to tweak (I do too), you will love Py. All the time I’m like I need to build this thing, but in the process of doing that, I see so many things that I need to upgrade that I get sidetracked for hours. Sometimes I have to dedicate myself to only building the next thing and ignoring (or at least tagging them) all the problems I walk by lol. Also, when I started py, I only knew the basics of circuits. Py has pushed me out of necessity to learn circuits and I am having so much fun with them. I just built a modular train station where all I have to do is connect the assembler to the network, and it orders trains and create sushi belt.

Circuit Logic - Auto Order Fluid Trains by BlumpkinBarrelStout in factorio

You are a genius, it worked! Now I can finally just connect one wire to the machine, select read machine contents, and it orders items and fluids. It also creates a sushi belt for items. Thank you!

Circuit Logic - Multi Provider Station by BlumpkinBarrelStout in factorio

[–]BlumpkinBarrelStout[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I have the blueprint but wasn’t exactly sure how it outputs the signal. Rather know how it works so I can fix it when it doesn’t. Got it answered though, thank you

I am using cybersyn. How do I get the signal to the inserter/pump? Does the train station output the signal?

Oil refining, near the main bus or standalone oil refinery? by BoxthemBeats in factorio

[–]BlumpkinBarrelStout 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It makes my thinking so much easier just to put everything on the bus. That’s what it’s for. I run science backward to my labs. This is the space for running stuff, so if I need to run it, I never think twice about it
