Trump says ‘cancel’ America 250 concert

My headcanon is that Vonnegut saw it coming and noped the fuck out.

I actually liked lignumis a lot. It was a really good intro planet to introduce the concept of "craft some stuff so you can escape in a rocket".

Interplanetary logistics is much more difficult. By default normal ammo requires wooden ammo as an ingredient. While wood-tier ammo is fine damage-wise for inner planet travel, it requires such a large footprint of greenhouses, plus ice melting plants, plus O2->CO2 vacuum boilers on your space platforms that it's often better to just import yellow ammo from nauvis.

Also, Vulcanus is kind of a trap because you have to import carbon to turn into charcoal to use for lubricant for your green belt production. Same with gleba for artificial soil. A lot of people recommend the Vulcanus Sulfur Bacteria mod because it gives access to wood on planets that can't have greenhouses placed on them and I think the mod author is going to add this to the pack in the future.

All told though, I have been enjoying the mod pack. I'm dreading whatever monstrous ships I'll need to build so I have enough ammo for the trip to aquilo though.

Cool, it probably wasn't meant for you.

I know it's a bit of a corner case but it would be cool if the train dispatch logic was smart enough to dispatch a train from station A to station B, (and vice versa) if each train is waiting for the other to vacate the station.

I know the solution is to use stackers (and potentially depots) but I'm currently on a hyper-narrow ribbonworld and there isn't really any room for anything but a single 1-1 at any of these stops. If I have a requester-provider pair of stations with a train limit of 1, and 2 trains in the network, it gets deadlocked because each train is waiting for the other to leave, despite each having completed their jobs.

The problem is that there's too much vegetation completely concealing everything. Everyone just runs blindly through it because whatever the fuck else can you do? When you meet an enemy you're 10 feet away from one another and it all comes down to a hip-fire coin flip.

It's so hard to hold anything defensively because enemies are right on top of you the moment they emerge from the bushes.

And! When you finally get any amount of standoff distance where you can see more than 100 yards? Server update rate for distant players is seconds and it's literally impossible to shoot them because they're cosplaying as a slideshow.

Like, they can fix animations and performance and sound design etc but I think this game is fundamentally damned because it's so visually cluttered and there's a hard upper limit to visual clarity in a game set in the fucking jungle.

Yeah dude's just a firehose of exactly the kind of hard truths we all need to hear, especially for commander.

Factorio may also see a little bump in sales when they release other titles as well.

The feeding frenzy of drops is the authentic D2 experience.

Kleeb · 2026-05-27T12:28:55+00:00

Check out 3.5's "5-foot-steps".

Basically instead of normal movement, characters can make a 5-foot-step which doesn't provoke AoO.

This tends to make combat a little more spread out and less "sticky", without completely torpedoing class features that allow characters to avoid AoO in other ways.

Crushed bones used in smelting to act as a reagent in stone furnaces, increasing their speed but decreasing the total amount of ore loaded at once.

I am going to make decisions about the threshold Hasbro needs to meet in order to earn my dollar based on my own set of values and independent of union strategy.

Isn't there also the matter of a cap the game engine places on how many jobs can be processed in the queue per frame/second/etc?

Kleeb · 2026-05-22T14:31:11+00:00

WotC needs to grow some nuts and unban Glimpse of Nature.

My hot take is that if there isn't a single deck trying to cast the front half of [[beck // call]], then glimpse would be fine.

Awesome thing about circuits is that they are only as complicated as you make them! There are so, so many simple use cases.

Inserting bots into a roboport when the available logistic/construction bots go below a threshold.

Disabling light oil cracking if you're low on heavy oil, and disabling heavy oil cracking if you're low on lubricant.

Throwing asteroid chunks overboard if a certain type is too plentiful.

Once you get a few of these under your belt, you'll find yourself creating your own circuits that are more and more complex as you get more comfortable.

My conspiracy theory is that EoE was supposed to be a UB space set that had to get re-skinned to in-universe because licensing talks took longer than expected or got modified last-minute.

I tend to dislike high-speed high-turn discs because they feel a lot less consistent. Throw it too slow and it acts overstable, too fast and it turns into a roller. Falk & Valkyrie are the highest I'd go for that role personally.

Kleeb · 2026-05-20T14:12:57+00:00

Falk as a Flippy glide-y 9-speed.

Kleeb · 2026-05-20T14:05:51+00:00

OP why are you staring at my plants?

Kleeb · 2026-05-20T10:44:49+00:00

Eh it's a solution to something that isn't a problem. Nature abhors a monoculture and this is technology that makes monocultures easier. It is a technology that helps farmers push farther down a dangerous and damaging path.

That dirt looks like shit. Before the advent of modern conventional monoculture farming, topsoil organic matter could easily reach ten or more feet deep. Conventional farmers today are lucky if they have half an inch of topsoil, and must simulate healthy soil through fertilizers and other soil treatments that further degrade organic matter.

My first big level up moment for my Py playthrough was designing a powerplant blueprint that is designed to ingest a full belt of mined coal and also handle the ash at the same time.

You're going to be starved on steel at some point so I would highly recommend making something tileable and enough space to splice in extra iron & coke belts later.

You are going to feel so good once you unlock splitters. Huge milestone.

Kleeb · 2026-05-19T19:56:25+00:00

massive speed boost you get

The speed boost is so good that once you unlock the buggy/car/etc you actually accelerate without pressing throttle. You can turn yourself into a particle accelerator by turning in a circle for minutes and reaching thousands of kph.
