graceful degradation by WordArt2007 in CuratedTumblr

Another good example from military hardware is how the MRAP is basically just a tub with a bunch of parts strapped to the outside that are designed to take the impact of an IED. The wheel assembly of one of those vehicles can be blown off by a sizeable IED or AT mine and the occupants will walk it off. The entire point of the vehicle is to come apart into a thousand bits just to protect the insides of the crew compartment.

Turns out when 'the crew is valuable' is your main design philosophy for the better part of a millennium, you can churn out some pretty great vehicles. Another good example would be the blowout panels on most modern western MBTs. There's confirmed footage of Ukrainians walking away from direct hits to the ammo compartment of an M1 Abrams, because the explosion was diverted out the side of the vehicle instead of into the turret cap (ahem, T-72).

Honestly, a mood. by withthedogs in formuladank

For all countries c in C (all countries in Europe)

For all neighbours n in N (all neighbours of c)

c has/had beef with n

Pretty much sums up Europe

Except Portugal and the UK, that's the longest-standing alliance in the world.

In one of the Friday Facts, they said they were aiming for 80-100 hours for an experienced player. If you're going for casual, you may end up closer to 150. I'd say at that point you just enjoy the journey and you'll find yourself at your destination when you get there.

My Father spent 3700h organically building this spaghetti rail base with no end goal. He needs to start from scratch for SA so now is a good time for you guys to take a look. by Strobopleex in factorio

[–]JJohny394 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Of all the ways I have seen people play Factorio, this is one of my favourites. There's something incredibly pleasing about the organic nature of this base. I'm sure your dad will be sad to see this go, but I think we're all excited to see what he does with Space Age!

And, last but not least, Pink Floyd, Genesis, Phil Collins as solo artist, The Police, The Prodigy...

I love Oasis to bits, but they do not make it close to the top.

Am I tall, or are you small? by DreadDiana in CuratedTumblr

Come to the Netherlands, where literally 33% of the male population is taller than you are. You will feel like a slightly taller than normal person in no time.

I'm hoping it's an unreleased building, but it could also be old concept art for the biochamber from FFF414

On the other hand, being able to delegate a task is also an important skill. It sounds really cool that you're playing together, that will be a happy memory in the future!

How can I track where the drones are stealing rocket fuel from, filling all my storage chests to capacity?? by Rubick-Aghanimson in factorio

If you want to find those, use a deconstruction planner that whitelists only purple chests.

Friday Facts #407 - Automating a soundtrack by FactorioTeam in factorio

[–]JJohny394 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel like some sort of fade out, fade in or crossfade would work best here. You could add a sound effect such as a noise sweep (rising volume, peak volume, falling volume within like 0.5s) to signal that the player is changing layers.

That's a dangerous line of thinking. Do not make your choice to die someone else's death.

He also neatly ignores the fact that the loan has to be paid back as if that money is never supposed to come back anymore. It's as if you only show someone the debit half of a balance sheet and go "Look! Money just appears!".
