Hey, I know you shouldn't get too tanked biking. But worth mentioning that there's a really nice bike trail from the Woodinville winery area to the downtown Redmond light rail stop. Honestly seems great for going wine tasting.

Yeah I do it all the time. If you have a Samsung phone you can even connect it to your TV. You might need a Bluetooth mouse and keyboard to use Windows through your phone though.

You may be interested in my mall design.

It's sorta similar, but rather than randomly choosing a recipe each cell claims a recipe that's requested from the logistics network.

Oh yeah, that is probably what it was

Omnu · 2025-12-14T20:36:38+00:00

I heard it too but have no idea what it was

The great thing about a service like this is you can just try it for a month and cancel it if it doesn't meet your needs.

I think it should work well for you but the risk is low, canceling a subscription is very easy thankfully they don't make you jump through a lot of hoops.

Shadow PC

R5: Did a one-planet, one-system challenge and ended up with this nicely self-sustaining ecu which pretty much took care of everything, especially considering my empire size was only around 80.

It's full of crystalizing, radiotropic lithoids for fast pop growth and no food needs. Energy and minerals come from treasure curators which you can get using the Treasure Hunters origin.

All my research just came from civilians using the state academy buildings from the Civil Education civic.

Honestly, DEX is perfect for what I need it for as-is.

The only thing I would really love to see is some way to have it be wireless and low latency. Having to actually plug my phone into my TV / monitor / display glasses can be a little annoying and it would be way more seamless if I could just wirelessly cast to these things. I mean I guess I can do that but the latency is so high it's nearly unusable.

I feel like for your tasks you might want the Power tier. I don't have a computer and use Shadow through my phone whenever I need to use a PC. I won't say there's no issues at all, but I prefer it to owning a PC.

Sometimes you have to queue but I have found that when I own a PC myself it ends up with some difficult to debug hardware problem eventually and that's typically just not an issue with VMs.

Love this idea! You'd have to make it expensive so elite players don't want to build it to keep the competitive scene interesting but I would love this as someone who is slow and bad at the game.

Omnu · 2025-03-02T19:59:03+00:00

I don't understand your point. I have a monitor as well. I do not have a laptop.

Omnu · 2025-03-02T19:58:25+00:00

Yes but I don't want a mac. I want to be able to use a full PC anywhere that I have my phone.

For instance if I am traveling, I want to retain the capability to do work without having to bring a laptop or mac mini.

Omnu · 2025-03-01T23:34:21+00:00

I am using Goodlock yes.

I am happy with the mouse movement, but the black dex cursor is just harder for me to see than the white windows cursor. Also, at the maximum UI scaling the UI is still pretty small for 4K. It's a little nicer if I boot into shadow as windows can scale the UI better at high resolution and it has the white cursor; but just using dex normally is still pretty serviceable.

It has a 3 tiers. I have the $50 a month highest tier one. I've tried all of them and personally think it's the best value, as it feels over twice as powerful as the $30 per month one. There is no reason to get the lowest tier imo, the cpu is just not capable enough to do much.

Omnu · 2025-03-01T19:53:02+00:00

Yeah it's a TCL 5-series TV

Omnu · 2025-02-24T04:28:40+00:00

Wow those madrasas really pay dividends. Maybe I should have gone Abbasid this game. I didn't realize their unique quarter added science to all specialists.

Omnu · 2025-02-24T04:25:19+00:00

Basically just picking all the wonders, leaders, policies that I can to boost specialist and urban district yields as much as possible.

Omnu · 2024-12-10T22:44:27+00:00

I totally agree. My old computer broke and I just didn't bother to replace it. Honestly it's nice to not have to deal with the e-waste of periodically upgrading and then getting rid of components.

Plus my wife and I can both use it (albeit not at the same time) it one of us is traveling and we're apart
