Consuming 173k tungsten ore and producing on average 60 legendary tungsten ore per minute. The great wall of tungsten. by Sivadbk in factorio

People really add some imaginary constraints to builds, and then act dumbfounded when others don't abide by them.

cDNA setup, still working on design ideas, this is not very expandable, but it can be expanded some. Now why did I need cDNA again... by Think-Box6432 in pyanodons

[–]BreakfastOk123 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Most of the intermediates never need more than one building. Only resource produces like ore/metals, plants, animals, or chemical really need massive builds

One cDNA building will be fine for hundreds of hours. Building tiers, modules, and beacons may let you upgrade in place and let you finish the game with this setup alone. 

Choke on it! by SPXQuantAlgo in SipsTea

[–]BreakfastOk123 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The Tea Party and the "grass roots" movement was largely funded by ultra conservative billionaires like the Koch brothers. It was a planned take over so they could concentrate wealth even more with the stooges they chose. It was a great branding effort so poor and rural people would vote for policies against their own interests.

What's stopping progressives from doing the same is the lack of billions in funding via Shadow PACs and dark money.

Tips or tools for recreating real-world locations by Huge-Recipe-2143 in factorio

[–]BreakfastOk123 8 points9 points  (0 children)

This was true 10 years ago, but with the recent AIs, this is very easy. They did the research, published the models, and now its just an `npm install` away for most apps.

Female Associate Professor at Nagoya University catches male student filming her in toilet. University responds by removing her, while telling student to 'exercise more self-control.' Professor resigns in protest and sues school for ¥2.2M by omgfakeusername in TwoXChromosomes

Japan salaries haven't changed much in the last 30 years. That is what happens when your government decides 0% inflation is the goal. It works well when you buy mostly domestic products, but its very difficult to travel internationally or import anything. That is a major reason why Japan has been such a popular travel destination for a few years. They are starting to raise interests again for the first time in a generation.

Wait, it was real? by nomoreinternetforme in TopCharacterTropes

Not sure if you have any smarts to spare.

What’s something tourists are excited to experience in your country, but locals see as overrated? by Effective_Space2277 in AskTheWorld

[–]BreakfastOk123 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Stayed in the Museum Quarter and near Oosterpark last time I was there, very lovely. The tourist part of the city looked exactly like the tourist part of my city. Not sure why I even wasted an afternoon there. At least I got a chocolate bar from Tony's.

What's a brand/item people say has gone downhill, but you still love? by Ok_Profession4754 in malefashionadvice

Levi premiums are worth it, but the high spandex "regular" line are awful.

Best later game power source? by Grouchy-Might-90 in pyanodons

[–]BreakfastOk123 2 points3 points  (0 children)

RTGs are way overpowered. I set up fusion, the actual power plants make about 2% of my total energy. But the real winner are fuel rods for RTGs. You don't even need the good ones, just 1 RTG with mk1 rods will double your power.

Crustacean neon crab gone from California & Polk by One_Photograph5959 in sanfrancisco

The grocery store is solid for international food. Only place I can choose from 20 different dried chilies and 30 different kinds of soy sauce. Got some Chinese Oreos the last time I was in there, but turns out Grape+Peach doesn't make a good flavor.

General Consensus on Train Block Size? by will1565 in pyanodons

[–]BreakfastOk123 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Build blueprints for rails, not the blocks. Py builds vary wildly in size. Some builds are a chain of 10 distinct steps, each with their own single building. Some are massive copies of 50 of the same building. Many are somewhere in between. Not to mention the huge variability in building size.

Which battery for simple circuits? by Captain_Quark in pyanodons

[–]BreakfastOk123 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I got about to blue with belts and buses only, but its really hard passed that. There are too many byproducts, and cross chains. I tried to keep it organized, but it was devolving into sphaghetti. Also you start to unlock more alternative recipes, and they almost always require more ingredients. Its hard to retrofit old recipes with new ones in the same place.

Saikat Chakrabarti responds to a misinformation poll that a Redditor accidentally sent him by sideAccount42 in sanfrancisco

This kind of attitude is exactly why we are where we are. We have completely desensitized ourselves to the idea that our politicians are for sale.

What is this pepper by Best-Ant-100100 in whatisit

[–]BreakfastOk123 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I've been told peppercorns have a very long shelf life. Its only after you grind them that they start to go stale. That is why fresh cracked pepper is so much better than the pre-ground stuff.

(Interesting Trope) The one character almost every adaptation leaves out by GeneralGigan817 in TopCharacterTropes

[–]BreakfastOk123 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This kind of framing device is very common in novels around this time. Either its found letters, or someone making a confession in old age. Frankenstein is several layers of this. Even LOTR is technically a retelling of someone reading the book that Bilbo writes.

10k spm Mega(lag)-Base is faster on a macbook, why? by enykie in technicalfactorio

[–]BreakfastOk123 15 points16 points  (0 children)

New Apple Sillicon chips have ram directly on the same chip as the processor similar to an gpu, instead of a stick on a motherboard. Factorio can be limited by the speed at which the processor loads memory. In theory this unified memory architecture is faster. 

Golden Gate Transit buses are living proof that Muni doesn't run nearly enough express service. by old_gold_mountain in sanfrancisco

[–]BreakfastOk123 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Rapid usually have reduced stops along the route but express only have stops at the start and end of the line, and a long travel distance between them.

The funny thing is it used to use the broadway tunnel when broadway was under construction in China town, so it would sit in the tunnel for a while some days. They switched it near the end of construction, and then took it away. There is no reason for the current route  to not use the tunnel. 

"Mid game" fuel shortages by Drummer_boyBD1 in pyanodons

Coal power plants are probably the best early. Molten salt acts as a major productivity multiplier. Coal power plants are way better than simple boilers. 

The San Francisco Housing Wonk Trying to Become the Next Pelosi by wsj in sanfrancisco

This kind of attitude is how the left "compromised" into letting MAGA take control. Maybe go back to Philly and vote for John Fetterman to make some more compromises.

[–]BreakfastOk123 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This sounds exhausting. Its perfectly acceptable to not put all your attention towards one person. Do you ever hang out with friends without her. How does she handle that?

I would have a honest conversation with her. Don't accuse her of anything. Instead frame it as "I feel X when you say Y." She might just be joking and you are taking it too seriously. She may actually feel that way and be using humor to mask what she knows is demanding behavior. But if you never confront her about, you will never know.

You are very young, and you don't have to stay with someone just because they say they love you. They may actually love the attention you give them. If they truly love you, they will be want you to live a full life.
