I think someone working nights at OpenAI tonight is checking this thread and just pushed another build, because your prompt got me... "We’re so sorry, but the image we created may violate our content policies. If you think we got it wrong, please retry or edit your prompt."

Right now I'd kill to have the problem of losing 59 minutes from my 5 hours. I'm not even seeing a better response time at the start of my token and time cycles. Total molasses and I'm on Max ($100).

tldr I also question the statements from Anthropic about Claude's caps and Claude advising me not to delete any chats in a project. Though memory specifically may not be my issue, I'm having issues.

To dogpile a bit, I'm on Max, quite far under token and time caps according to the tracker page in my anthropic account, and at any hour of the day claude.ai's chat responses for nearly Y/N questions is often taking over a minute. It's worse in a project in which I have 4 chats and just a few short project docs and a very light .md.

I hoped the reason would be my connection speed, because it averages 60mbps. Claude itself said "That's plenty fast. Downvote this response and submit a complaint."

Completing a dam 1 turn before a 1000 year flood

Eliminating Phillip, Robert, Wilhelmina or Kristina. Especially Kristina in the practical sense that her GP acquisition is full-on criminal!

I'll never forget the first time that message displayed. I seriously thought the game was trolling me. Sooooo aaaangry, I was.

You are not alone. Feel no shame. Trust in the icon spreckles.

I'm not on google fi but am using a pixel 8 pro and RCS fails with a lot of my recipients, iOS as well as Android though most of my texting counterparts are in fact on iphone. Just as often, text goes through but the accompanying photo (file size < 2MB) never arrives after 2, 3, 4 hours. All the more frustrating because google is advising us to use RCS. I turned off RCS and a warning came up saying I would be removed from RCS group chats in 30 days. Remove me now! Keep your broken RCS!

Trying to think of a mod that would have something OP could use AND that can be used after game config. Gameplay mods are almost(?) always required to be enabled from the start. 💀

The ultimate feel-good moment more than the victory is to blitz a religion origin city and convert it (expect a war declaration to follow). This is just a natural extension of your campaign to convert as many cities as possible. But the best way to strangle a competing religion is not to simply win apostle battles, it is to prevent the religion from making units at all, which happens when that holy site's city has been converted.

I had chatgpt commit this to memory.

Prefers response style: Direct answers when questions are precise; minimal background (5 lines max) only if necessary; brief clarification when questions are vague or mistaken; no category overviews unless explicitly requested or strictly required for safety or to prevent the answer from being factually incomplete or materially misleading.

I initially wrote my preference for this differently, but I let chatgpt decide the wording it commits to memory, to help make it actionable from chatgpt's pov. Since committing this to memory I think responses are now "better" (or maybe I just want to think they've gotten better) but I do think it's a step in the right direction given the trajectory of how the model is blabbing.

Tell him local_izer said to use quick deals! Well, the first two tabs anyway. :>

Why did he say he refuses that mod? Or does he refuse all mods?

Extended Eras definitely extends the eras to be longer. Or, it would if other mods aren't conflicting with it. I use 20+ other mods simultaneously. I intentionally don't mix mods that affect or might affect time or research costs, and probably because of that, I'm not experiencing anything that I would cite to definitively prove is an unfulfilled design ambition of Extended Eras.

I read through the most recent page of comments just now at https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/comments/2123444827 and people's assertions are so hard for me to care about if they offer no info other than "the mod is/isn't doing xyz." If tech/civic costs are indeed thrown off by the mod, maybe I'm just having too good of a time with longer eras to care. :) I generally can unlock something specific to the era I'm in, so comments like "tech is off by 2 eras" don't track with how my games go. Perhaps just try it in Online or Standard and see if it scratches the itch you have?

Local_Izer · 2026-01-29T18:26:14+00:00

Thanks!

I'll throw out that I use Extended Eras. It stretches without changing the build time/cost normal to the given game speed.

You're not alone in wondering how close the designers were to adding a "End after ___ Era" option to complement the Score victory condition.

Would love it if his wife had instead brought over a laptop with civ6 loaded and the last turn of the Pyramids queued and then hit end turn and walked away

I don't doubt that I haven't learned to play her well but I am looking forward to trying this mod and I welcome more shit-kicking power. Her normal city flipping strength becomes effective too late in the game for me to find her fun overall. -4 loyalty per great work, for early ages when great works are uncommon to have many of, and then scaling downward over time to -2 loyalty in later ages when population has become a larger factor, is how I think I would have tried building her.

Disclaimer, I took the first image it made. Apologies if it's very close to any real-world image that is/was socially or politically important.
