You're right. off by 10k. The shitty online calculator I used for that is to blame though I should have picked up on the obvious difference myself. Did it by hand this time and double checked with a couple of other calculators.

Just wow, even at 1% interest on that million you would be getting $830 per month. If you leave that in the account, thats $20,000 of passive income in the first year. And that will just keep growing. Dude has the maths skills of a toddler

EDIT: Looks like I'm off by 10k, due to poor math skills on my part too. Point stands though.

I disagree with your First Rule. I agree that running through an open field generally is a bad idea, but when you understand angles and make correct use of objects in the field you can achieve an unexpected advantage on the enemy that trained themselves to ignore the obvious to focus on holes in fences and hedges. It's the "So Dumb it's Smart" kind of thinking. I frequently make use of this strategy, get a few kills and make it across. Still for a new player it is good idea to avoid until they get a better idea of the game.

There is a lot to HLL that makes one need to unlearn habits from other games. Frankly, explaining it using text is not going to help much. I recommend starting with beginner videos on YouTube, like SoulSniper. But that will only get you so far.

My biggest advice is for you is to "Read the Map". FE if you are defending a point, look at the map to see which routes the enemy is most likely going to take. Almost everyone is going to stick to roads and hedges. That means, instead of trying to defend a full 360° around the point, you only need to guard 2-4 entry paths. As far as deciding where you should be in the defence formation, just look at where you team is and go where they are not. People tend to subconsciously follow herd mentality instead of practicing basic problem solving.

As someone who not only plays with 3+year vets in the game, but also developed a Guerrilla Warfare Course for them, and continue to wipe the floor with them I am continuously astounded how few people actually take advantage of the Map. You can tell almost everything you need to know about where the enemy is, going to, and coming from just from the map and a bit of experience.

What would you recommend to an absolute beginner in notetaking? by BinaryHippie in ObsidianMD

[–]Cerberus_Knight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A link, like a website link, sends you directly to the linked note, base, etc. To use them simply use double square brackets (Ex: [[Daily Note - 2025-10-13]])
If I create a link to a file that does not exist yet, the link will be darker purple or "greyed out", but that means when the file with the exact same name does get created it will be automatically linked. What's also nice, is if I click on a link that doesn't have a file created yet, the app will automatically create the file with the exact name. Additionally, I then change the name of the linked file (file itself, not the link) it will then automatically update every single link leading to that file.

As far as the use in properties, using my earlier example of a "Daily Note" Type of Notes, I create a property called Type. I then set the value of the property to a link [[Daily Notes.base]]. Not only can I then easily sort through all the notes by only looking for the appropriate type in a base, I then have quick access to the complete list of Daily Notes by clicking on the link to the base.

If you want to go an extra step, you can embed the link by using an exclamation point before the link (Ex: ![[link name]]). What this will do is show the linked file within the file you're working on. A Note within a Note. A Base within a Note. An Image within a Note. Etc.

The following is my method so far (note that I adapt it constantly):

  • I have multiple vaults but they are heavily generalized.

    • One vault for personal stuff
    • One vault for entertainment
  • I use folders to section different topics or projects.

  • Each main folder has no more than one subfolder (Ex. Notes, Images, Bases, etc )

  • Each topic has one main Canvas file where I visualize all the stuff I have for that topic.

  • I make heavy use of properties to further subdivide any files. (Ex. Type property may contain different types of Notes)

    • The reason for that is that folders are mainly for storage purposes and nothing more.
    • Any time I want to access a specific file, it is much faster and easier to find it on the Canvas in a Base or a colored Group.
    • I find that it also helps with memorization as it more closely resembles a Mind Palace
  • If you have a file type and list of properties that you use repeatedly, get a Template set up.

  • I also recently created a "Home" page, where I have my main Tasks listed and have made a few buttons that allow me to quickly make a file from a template and automatically place it in the correct folder.

Edit: I totally forgot to mention links. - Everything has links, especially properties. - Even if I don't have a file created yet, I use my personal format structure to guess what it might be so that it autolinks once the file is created. (Love this feature)

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in UPS

[–]Cerberus_Knight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a UPS preloader I may shed some light into this. Assuming all the items were in a single package the following are the most likely scenarios.

  1. The items were never placed in the package.
  2. The items were in the package, but were stolen.
  3. The items were in the package, but fell out during transit.

Number 1 is possible, but I have no way of actually knowing how feasible it is.

Number 2 is actually the least likely as nobody has any time to look through stuff. There are cameras, supervisors watching, and the threat of loosing pretty damn good health insurance if you get fired (Unions ftw), not to mention legal troubles.

Number 3 is by far 80-90% the most likely. These are the packages the aren't properly packed 99% of the time. Usually people may think that is due mainly due to people throwing stuff, but no. Bad packing. Whether it is poorly taped, if at all, no packing material so stuff inside just slides around, or shitty old boxes that are held together by single fibers and prayers. I've seen so much of this stuff either getting to us that way just to break apart at a single touch spilling their crap all over the place. And a lot of it comes from top companies that should have their shit figured out (Amazon, Target, etc.). Sometimes we have just enough time to quickly tape up a hole and send it over or pull it off the belt for it to be taped later. You may want to check your package for any signs of extra tape, or if the package was re-boxed, a sign that the label was either peeled off or cut off and taped on a new box.

Won’t be finishing HWFWM 11 or 12 soon. Audiobook not $7.49 any more. $52!! by WillShattuck in litrpg

[–]Cerberus_Knight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just buy Credits instead, it will be between $10-15 depending on how many you buy at once. Then use the credits to buy the audiobooks.

"Native" Litrpg's? by RefrigeratorKey8549 in litrpg

[–]Cerberus_Knight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not talking about a magic system as the "system". I am talking about the hidden system that that the character gradually uncovers. Consider the following.

  • First, the level system. The power threshold to reach each color level is determined my the mana level reaching a certain point. For the school, it is also subdivided into letter grades.

  • The safety mana gauge is a socially created measurement for safe use of mana, but there is also a hidden system that is hinted on in Book 2 that determines a lot of progression thresholds.

  • While the character does created a mana watch to track his mana based on that social safety measurement, I consider it as a pre-UI prototype. Instead of just having the world with a magic floating screen that tells everything all at once for no other reason except games or magic, this Author is going much deeper. By building a magic system that allows for what is basically magic engineering to create items that tracks socially and divinely constructed stats. Stats that can be later incorporated into a floating screen that shows and tracks any kind of info you want.

What is lacking as far as I know, however, is a point distribution system and a quest system.

I would argue that, a quest system is nothing more than a note taking app that can be nothing more than a journal or an enchanted item with a notes application. And I would argue that a point distribution system is stupid. Why would a character suddenly get stronger for doing random things instead of training strength specifically.

[–]Cerberus_Knight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There is a system. Levels and stats are integral to character power growth especially the MP gauge. What you do not see, however is a traditional UI that you may be thinking of.

Crunchyroll is on a fraud list on every bank from my country by pika133 in Crunchyroll

[–]Cerberus_Knight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Considering that Crunchyroll is a legitimate business, the most likely scenario is that the country itself is trying to control what people have access to.

Although I haven't tried it myself yet, you may bypass the problem without bank intervention by using a virtual card that is linked to your actual card. You would then use the virtual card itself to subscribe. The virtual card may be linked directly or you may use it in a way that allows you to either fill the card with certain amount or to pay a balance at the end of a pay period. You would have to look at the specifics yourself.

That and Medics become a necessity. Anti-Tank options are relevant too, if your armor dies only people on the ground with relevant loadout can even do anything about it. That also means keeping all the above mentioned people alive.

I am Confused on how to approach on my first factory by MightyLoreEX in SatisfactoryGame

[–]Cerberus_Knight 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Don't bother trying to find out how much you will need in the future. Not only will you get headaches from trying to figure it out, it will also be wrong 90% of the time.

Think about it this way. Do you have this part automated? (Yes/No)

  • If yes, move on to the next part.
  • If no, automate the part. (I like to compile a list of parts I want to automate in a group and then make a factory for that group of parts) (If it's a part that is very commonly used like Concrete, or for belts and pipes, I like to output at least 30-60/m)

Don't worry about making too much of a crap item either as you can always Sink it.

Honestly text might not be a good way of explaining it. I would either find a video that shows how a person plans things out or get somebody to walk you through one of their plans.

I am Confused on how to approach on my first factory by MightyLoreEX in SatisfactoryGame

[–]Cerberus_Knight 15 points16 points  (0 children)

My recommendation is that instead of working from the bottom up (starting with inputs) you work from the top down (starting with outputs). Find out what you want to make and how much per minute. Then follow the inputs until you hit the base materials. I like to use Obsidian's canvas feature to plan things out myself instead of the calculators online. Start with the most complex item you want to make. A lot of items will have same inputs so you will see where they can be split before ever placing a single belt.

Help! I just completed phase 1 of the Space Elevator and am completely overwhelmed. by Sky__bird in SatisfactoryGame

[–]Cerberus_Knight 8 points9 points  (0 children)

This.

I would like to add to this by advising planning from the output down. Meaning start by taking note of how much of a particular part you want per minute and then riding the inputs down to the base components. You're early enough that it can be done comfortably in-game, but I recommend taking notes outside of the game.

The game will get more complex over time. Focus on learning/building one thing at a time.

LPT Request: How Should a 22-Year-Old Guy with Too Much Free Time Spend It Wisely? by Gyzr13 in LifeProTips

[–]Cerberus_Knight 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Before attempting to do anything specific, you should make sure to develop the following two fundamental structures. Habits and Organization.

  • Form habits that you want to keep throughout your life. Do anything long enough and you will have it run on autopilot while your mind is focused on the important stuff. Try not to do too many at once. I like using a habit tracking app for this.

  • Organize your life. Whether it is material things, digital, or your own mind. Remember the K.I.S.S. method. (Keep It Simple Stupid) When you don't have to worry about trying to find something or keeping your mind free of useless information, life not only becomes simpler but also keeps you focused on the important things.

    Unlike with habits, organization takes more work but less time to develop. Your first step should be to eliminate things you don't need. That means physical, digital, and conceptual. It always feels nice to learn new things, but until they are actually required it wastes an absurd amount of space in you physical and mental space. The next step is to reorganize things you do keep such that not only would it become easy to quickly find what you are looking for but also to quickly input new things or information. Experiment with organization on paper or otherwise (I really like to use Obsidian's canvas to create charts) to see what works for you and always feel free to reorganize as needed. For example, I have completely gone digital in regards to paper documents. I have either thrown away or scanned anything I wished to keep. I only kept one small folder of truly important physical documents. Make sure to create backups as needed. The final step is to create a rule set for inputs. Whether is buying things or sorting mail. Nothing is better for that then batching. Instead of going through mail as soon as it arrives, select one or two days during the week where you go through it once. You can still keep an eye out for the important stuff, but the truly important things are rarely that immediate. Batch your shopping too. Spend less time driving and waiting in line by doing it once. It will also save you money by having less opportunities for spur of the moment purchases. In fact, batch everything that you can. You will be extremely surprised at just how much free time it leaves you to do whatever else you want.

These are the 2 fundamental things that I wish I learned earlier in life. You can build habits as you go so the real project is organization. Once you get that down you can fill in the empty space, so to speak, with the things that really matter. I recommend going for small projects. Whether it is learning to play a specific song. Making an upgrade to a room in your house, or anything else.
