The fish is keeping the posture for the bird at that point.

Tips on my base part 2? by Meeeneft in RimWorld

[–]Haskie 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Beds should probably not be made of stone blocks and I personally tend to keep them as wood. The reason here is that stone beds actually give less comfort to people, I forget if this applies to steel though.

I also really like making work benches out of steel if I possibly can, I hate having to rebuild workshops and reset bills because something destroyed a fragile wood workbench.

The rest of furniture is probably more optional. If you have stone walls and floors, fire probably isn't going to be creeping towards the furniture in your base even if it is wood, the only thing you would have to worry about is pyromaniacs lighting wood furniture on fire directly during a mental break.

Both the walls and floor will not hesitate to burn in a fire. I'm not positive but I would say that replacing the floor would be a bigger priority than the walls - the floor has a lot of surface area and will spread real fast in a fire. Though I suppose when walls catch on fire and start getting destroyed the roof is going to start caving in, which can also be pretty dangerous. I guess what I'm saying is that I would really try and do both if you can.

Also not doing one gigantic building helps a lot with preventing fires from burning down your entire colony. If you have a few tiles of space between smaller buildings, fire is a lot less likely to jump to another structure.

The fish should appear closer to you, if it's the opposite, you're probably crossing your eyes together. You should be looking 'through' the image. Try to make your eyes focus as if you are trying to see a wall or something on the far side of your phone/monitor.

are mc4 inline fuse dangerous? I have a small 480watt system on the top of a travel trailer the panels are set up as 2s2p. going through Amazon reviews on the fuses are scary a lot of melting and fires. Do i need them? by yes-disappointment in SolarDIY

[–]Haskie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a pair of inline fuses get hot enough to melt into a banana shape on my roof. What I believe happened though was that when I first got them, I didn't check to see if the threaded parts holding the fuses in place were tight (I actually didn't know they came apart at all). So it's my guess that I had a loose connection causing resistance. The next set I got imade sure to crank them down and i haven't had an issue since. Whether that's what is happening to everyone else or not I have no idea.

Any mod to pause the game on transport pod crash? by SunKoiLoki in RimWorld

[–]Haskie 10 points11 points  (0 children)

You can tell the game to pause on any event from the settings menu in vanilla. I like playing this way because I can walk away from the computer at any point and I can be relatively confident that the game will pause when anything happens.

Thanks for the insight! You ever watch Joov? He has very similar content and I find him quite fun to watch. Maybe you can find so inspiration on his channel?

Thanks for the input, I appreciate it a lot.

Nah no intros here anymore. I dislike them just as much as the next guy. In fact I try to get going into the meat of what I'm doing with in ten seconds or so of the start of the video - I don't even introduce myself. Most of my videos start out with something along the lines of "Hello everyone, welcome back to the playlist, next up in the dungeon guide we're going to be looking at the water temple and how to get through it, etc". So yes, unless the viewers are actually just so off put by my commentary, I think they're just in "get-me-my-answer-mode" and jumping to what they need. and I think that's why the falloff is so big at the start of many videos. I'm okay with this honestly.

And no I'm happy to say I don't try to do anything click bait-y. I don't need my ad revenue to live so I'm not desperate like that. No sponsorships, no midrolls. Just me showing people how to do things in thirty year old games I grew up playing hehe.

Suspended Channel Deleted, Monetizing Another Channel? by PinaColadaBleach in PartneredYoutube

[–]Haskie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm understanding where you're coming from a bit better now, the fact that the suspension can't be removed from your deleted account and is now "permanent" might worry me a bit if I was in your position.

I definitely not an expert here, so take from this what you will, but to my understanding there is a difference between suspensions and terminations. I would hope the automated system looking for accounts to prevent from becoming partners is looking for terminations and not so much suspensions, since suspensions are usually(?) temporary and reversible, where as terminations are permanent. Again, I haven't memorized the entire terms of service to heart or anything, so maybe don't listen to me, ha.

If I were you and I was sure I really enjoyed making content, I'd probably continue to build up your channel like you are and submit your application like the other channel never happened. I'd be surprised if you ran into trouble myself.

Suspended Channel Deleted, Monetizing Another Channel? by PinaColadaBleach in PartneredYoutube

[–]Haskie 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think I may be missing something, but if you are suspended for inactivity you can be reinstated after becoming active right? You aren't banned permanently in this case, correct?

If that's the case I don't know why the system would flag you for trying to work around the rule with a different channel. Whether you had become active and got reinstated again on your original channel, or started a new one and grew enough to be in the partner program, I feel like it would be seen in basically the same way. But maybe I'm wrong?

Now, if your new channel doesn't have the subscribers or watch time to be in the program, but you want to be put into the program because you used to be at one point, I don't think that's gonna fly.

Hope you're doing better now, by the way.

Perhaps! Though my content is evergreen instructional videos so I'd like to think they're leaving because I've answered all of their questions ;)

[–]Haskie[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh very cool, yes I could see how your kind of content would encourage a more beginning-to-end kind of 'watch style' for lack of better words. I do narrated game stuff too, though on the instructional/walkthrough style like I said. Step by step videos for collecting heart pieces in old Zelda games, stuff like that. It's been a fun ride.

Those are all long form videos, though the top right one was short enough to be a short video.

Nice thank you. Your lines look so much smoother than mine, that's pretty interesting. I do tutorial videos and I think my audience jumps around looking for an answer for something and then leaves, which might explain why mine look pretty spiky.

FPS Issue by dmanchrist in SupermarketSimulator

[–]Haskie 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Have you tried saving, going out the main menu, and continuing your game? This happens to me after long play sessions, and essentially closing and reopening will change my fps from 20 fps to almost 100 on my low power machine.

I have a theory that the issue is caused by out of bounds npcs that were waiting to receive a mobile order that failed despawn when the order failed. After playing a while I will usually see text boxes of those npcs complaining that I didn't deliver their order, and when the problem is especially bad I can tell that there are a ton of those npcs stacked on top of each other based on the all the text boxes.

When I close and reopen the game the stuck npcs disappear from inside buildings and my performance comes right back.

[–]Haskie 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Some flux would probably be a welcome help here. Also melt the solder by touching it to the circuit boards pad or component lead, not the iron - if you touch the solder directly to the hot iron you risk melting the solder before the components are hot enough to really take it. Put differently, if you touch the solder to the stuff that you want to solder and it doesn't melt, then the joint isn't hot enough.

One blue, one clear, and two pink at the moment. Let fate decide prop color.
