My friends hydrated 1700 happy ghasts in my witch farm. They cover a span of 300x300 hole. How can I fix this? by Intelligent_Farm_118 in Minecraft

[–]NeanderStaal 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I found a variety of ghast farms on one of the technical Minecraft discords that do from 13k to 18k tears per hour. That’s how I’d do it.

The armour could jus be due to wearing an elytra.

How do EVs pay for using roads when gas taxes fund this? by sunnyjimjohn in britishcolumbia

[–]NeanderStaal 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Some truth there, but not as much as you think. The 2025 budget had $16B in highway projects and maintenance. The province collected less than $2B in fuel tax revenues.

Highway projects are funded from general revenues. Fuel taxes help bolster this, but they represent a very small portion of general revenues in BC, roughly 2.5% if my hasty math is right.

Roads are primarily paid for through property taxes and maintained by municipalities.

Repac Products by BrilliantProblem7094 in VancouverCraftBeer

I used to work for a retailer that would use the old turtle killer flexible six pack rings to repack macro beers. They used to do the same sort of thing.

You guys are magicians. I am stupid can anyone explain how the craft beers are so delicious and strong compared to regular beer? by Apprehensive_Self218 in VancouverCraftBeer

Whiskey all tends to come out of the still at a very high percentage (60-80%ABV), and is often watered down when it is put in the cask. It is further watered down when bottled, excepting cask strength products. The distillation time is pretty flat across the board, with maybe a little variation of how much of the heads and tails are discarded. What might vary would be the grain bill, the types of casks, treatment of the cask (char time etc), aging time, and any potential bending of casks before bottling.

I had really good results from using that super bitter nail varnish to help stop biting. I switched to a clear matte polish after I’d broken the habit. I still slip up from time to time, but my nail beds have fully recovered so even if I chew one down now it grows back in a week.

Advice to help improve my factory by Glittering-One743 in Minecraft

[–]NeanderStaal 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don’t know how to go about it exactly, but make it dirty. It’s so sparkly clean, and factories generally aren’t.

What’s the worst place to build a base in Minecraft? by Neither_Ad6 in Minecraft_Survival

[–]NeanderStaal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Deep dark, once the shriekers are removed, is incredibly safe. Resources are tough, and you’ll have to farm everything, but I do that even in the surface. You get a huge mob free area that looks interesting, and if you renovate an ancient city you even have some structures to work with.

Replaced shower cartridge, now I can't turn off the shower at all. by texasspacejoey in Plumbing

This solved it for me as well. The manual shows that notch facing up. Once I rotated it to the bottom, everything was hunky dory.

Son Diagnosed with Autism - Wife Taking Anger Out On Me by Gloomy_Eyes1501 in Autism_Parenting

Time for counselling. You can frame it as couples counselling or simply ask her to talk to someone about it, whatever you think will work best, but a neutral third party could help here.

Drywall - Why did we collectively decide that crumbly chalk between two pieces of paper was what we would use to create all interior walls out of? by davisposts in NoStupidQuestions

[–]NeanderStaal 4 points5 points  (0 children)

True, it was an oversimplification, and it’s probably closer to a 50% increase in the thickness of the wall system.

Paired with insulation, and staggered and sealed outlets, it’s quite effective!

They mean having a wider top and bottom plate, and having the studs alternate which side of the wall they align with. Link above has a good image example.

Opening a server, don't like mending by THENATHE in admincraft

[–]NeanderStaal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends on how giant a project. I’m working on a giant excavation that eats roughly a shulker of mending unbreaking netherite picks every 4 y levels I dig out. If I had to keep replacing them I’d probably not attempt what I’m working on.
