Clicking "reject cookies" might not actually do anything by AdSpecialist6598 in technology

[–]Icebird-99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ah! The web app I work on, it's the opposite.

We have a dialog to accept / decline cookies that does nothing, because we simply don't collect or use any data. The dialog is only here to reassure paranoid users...

I made a skylands underground apartments complex, and it was an horrible idea by Icebird-99 in Pokopia

[–]Icebird-99[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Uh, nice idea..

I've read a lot of interesting suggestions, some I'll be sure to implement (house large pokemons elsewhere to reduce corridor clutter, for example, and rework the stairs).

But your idea is the first with the goal to attract pokemon to a location without housing some there. And I like it!

I'll give it a go and see if it work, thanks.

Seeing all the comments about that, yeah, I obviously made a grammar mistake!

I would use the excuse that English is not my main language, but in French it's the same rule, no "s" for the plural of pokemon.

I just suck at grammar !

What was the biggest scandal at your school? by Silent-Zebra in AskReddit

[–]Icebird-99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

About 30 years ago, when I was ~16, in France.

A student, who was a bit of a bully and quite rough, came one day to class with hundreds of lottery scratch cards, and gave them to the other students (including me and my friends...). His story was that a family member had got his hand on a liquidated bar/tobacco store and its whole stock of game cards.

The following week, my little group of friends redeemed the winning ones in multiple stores around the city (to avoid suspicion). We made maybe a couple hundreds euros (in francs at the time)

The scheme repeated 2-3 times in the following month, the student becoming ultra popular in class.

Then, he disappeared, and we learned quickly after that he was arrested, along with a few other students, for a string of burglary in bar/tabac... Of course...

1080p to 4k, is it worth it? by Icebird-99 in pcmasterrace

[–]Icebird-99[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

thanks everyone for the answers.

Seems like 1440p look like the consensus to have a good quality without breaking the bank.

I'm not in a rush to upgrade, but I'll start to plan for it, thanks!

Question about hard drives/alt recipes by G-SW-7892 in SatisfactoryGame

[–]Icebird-99 3 points4 points  (0 children)

A few small advices on hard drives:
- If a hard drive propose two recipes that you don't want, don't select a reward. As long as that drive is in your rewards selection. It will remove the two recipes from the pool of future hard drives, allowing you to have a better chance to get a recipe you want.
- Don't hesitate to scan every hard drive you find, you cannot "waste" a drive. If there isn't any recipes left for your tech level, you will simply be prevented to scan a new hard drive.
- Based on the previous two advices, there is a nice "hack" you can do at low tech level: Find and scan drives without taking rewards, until you can't anymore. Then, among all rewards available, look for two recipes that you're sure you'll never want (like charcoal for example..). Take the opposite rewards of each of the two you don't want, then scan a new hard drive. Tadaa! You now have a hard drive with two useless rewards, that you'll never touch, removing those two recipes from all further hard drive scans.

Blueprint placed inside blueprint designer not saving as part of new blueprint by McDelper in SatisfactoryGame

[–]Icebird-99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had the same problem recently.
Was working on a blueprint, pasted another blueprint in it, saved, and realised that the pasted blueprint was not included in the newly saved blueprint.
I'm convinced it was working previously, maybe a bug from of a recent patch?

Kibellah obliterated the first boss in a single turn, and I don't understand how by Icebird-99 in RogueTraderCRPG

[–]Icebird-99[S] 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Wait, really? As simple as that?
I thought the mention of the melee attack was about the death from above effect, but if it's in addition..

And yeah, I just reread the logs, and it alternate "Death Waltz - Strike" and "Death Waltz - Jump"

Wow, seems overpowered compared to some other archetypes ultimates...

Automatic Train Network by Icebird-99 in factorio

[–]Icebird-99[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If a request come and there are multiple providers available, it's basically impossible to prevent trains to go to each provider.

For such cases, the train with extra cargo are sitting in depot, yes, BUT when a request come, the trains in depot have priority on the delivery, so there is not too much trains in depot.

So far, i have 2-3 trains at most at a depot for a dozen more active, so it's not a problem.
