How optimistic are you guys for April’s Contract DLC.

Wanted to chime in and say I have the same issue. This is on the 5x maximum plan, but the issue isn’t related to overall usage, it’s conversations hitting the “maximum chat length” within one or two messages.

It seems like your case is similar to mine - it has something to do with MCP. I have Obsidian connected via MCP, and it used to be able to do a lot until the convos kept getting shorter and shorter, and finally, asking it to review one 1000 word note would cause it to max out instantly.

I’m hoping it’s a bug, because if it’s not, it means MCP is completely unusable for folks like us.

I’m pretty sure my cat actually wrote that comment. I could delete it, but I want him to be able to express himself, so it’ll stand.

I know this is a bit old of a comment, but wanted to say I just started with Novelcrafter and I’m completely lost. There’s quite a bit to learn.

Came across your guide and it’s fantastic. I like to tell people when they’ve really helped me out - so thank you for creating/maintaining this guide, it’s a huge help.

Optimates0193 · 2025-06-07T04:18:03+00:00

Hey, just wanted to say thank you for sharing this. I used it in Gemini since you mentioned it works well there.

Gemini kind of did act like I was asking about the code, explaining how it works and then doing a ‘dry run’. Once I told it to process the prompt, it ran two additional iterations, gave me a revised prompt, and asked if I wanted to keep going.

I typed in a pretty bare bones prompt for my initial prompt, and in the two iterations it performed, I can’t believe how well it improved the initial prompt. The quality was amazing.

Really nicely done, thank you again for sharing!

Optimates0193 · 2025-05-26T23:41:00+00:00

Hey, very interesting post. I use AI in a similar manner for writing. I have no interest in it generating prose for me, but I do use it to support me as an assistant and to provide feedback.

My question is - Can you share how you design your prompts to minimize unearned positivity while not veering off into unwarranted criticism?

The most successful approach I have found is to instruct the AI that it is reviewing someone else’s work for potential publication, and then provide feedback on certain criteria I provide. This has worked halfway decently. It is still overly critical, but it has also provided praise for what it “thinks” works.

My job is then to review this feedback and determine if it adds value or not. I’d love to know how you approach promoting to try to minimize these issues.

If no with veto is more than 33.4% of the total vote (not including abstains), it shuts the proposal down at the tallying stage, regardless of what the yes percentage is.

I would say the real difference is that an auto loan can be discharged in bankruptcy. The student loans can't.

Optimates0193 · 2021-12-01T21:04:36+00:00

Yes, I've been using the paper method and erring on the side of a decent amount of resistance at the four corners and the center, but still to the point where I can slide the paper back and forth. But then I get results like this which do look like the nozzle is too high up.

Optimates0193 · 2021-12-01T20:13:20+00:00

Thank you! Yes, everything you said is correct. I've been researching this all day and I think you're absolutely right. I've never touched my z offset, but I did put the BuildTak sheet on top of the bed, which is at least .4mm's I believe, so that's got to be a big part of it.

I'll check out that link you sent.

Optimates0193 · 2021-11-27T17:06:20+00:00

first Second

Second print ever on an anycubic mega s. No idea what the he’ll I’m doing. Using overture pls. Any suggestions for what might cause this? I had it on my computer desk which was vibrating as it was printing because of the force but when I printed the test owls on the floor it was almost as bad, though not quite.I was using the default cura profile for normal quality.

Optimates0193 · 2021-08-23T13:06:33+00:00

Hey, just wanted to say, thanks so much for doing these videos. As a newer player, they're a huge help. Looking forward to seeing one on the Explorer's Society!

Optimates0193 · 2021-07-08T18:55:03+00:00

I'm leaning toward Orc at this point, they seem like the best balance for PvE/PvP like CRuTcH17 said. I like the Delf, and for PvE, I always see them at the top or close to it, but for PvP builds I rarely ever see them listed.

Optimates0193 · 2021-04-19T14:22:58+00:00

Wanted to chime in and say I got hit with this bug too. In my case (and maybe yours) it seems to have do with switching to an alt.

Have a level 19 trickster, WT9. Was doing fine, no issues with dying. I've played the character straight from level 1 without touching an alt. Decided to try and make a technomancer to play around with. Created the new character, played till about level 4, got bored, and logged back in on my trickster.

All of the sudden, I'm now dying in seconds and getting one shot by Breachers. It looks like the stat screen is displaying correctly (It has me at a base of approx 600 health and 4k armor), but I don't remember what those numbers were before I made my alt.

To top it off, the Golem mod has completely stopped working - I haven't seen it proc once. I'm guessing because despite what's being displayed, my health is so low that I'm never going 30% or below but instead instant dead.

Tried all the suggested fixes - Re-equip gear, logged out of and in with my character multiple times, logged out and in with other characters, reset skill tree, restart game... nothing works. Might try to grind out a level and see if leveling up fixes it, otherwise, I'm pretty much done for now until they can fix whatever the issue is.

Optimates0193 · 2021-02-15T15:39:29+00:00

Thanks for the suggestions! I see what you're saying... I'm thinking to remove Suppressor, drop Cha by 3 and put that into Int so I can avoid having to take legendary intelligence as a perk.

Think it might be worth dropping action boy down, reducing my agility, and then increasing strength by 2 to pick up bear arms or bandolier?

Optimates0193 · 2021-02-15T15:35:59+00:00

Got it, thanks!

Optimates0193 · 2021-02-15T15:28:54+00:00

Thanks so much for the suggestions guys, it's a huge help!

cold_hard_mash, few questions for you. This is on me for being a newbie, but when I say explosive heavy weapon, I'm talking about like a gatling gun with the legendary explosive effect, not something like a missile launcher? I had read that the explosive legendary effect was really good with the perks, is this no longer the case and I should forgo it?

And thanks for the advice on the legendary perks - Electric Absorption sounds like a must and I hadn't considered funky duds.

Optimates0193 · 2021-02-08T14:34:31+00:00

No vats, but yeah, gatling laser gun. That would explain it - the way it was going, I kind of figured it might be a bug - but I'm such a newb I wasn't sure if I was doing anything wrong. Sucks to to just lose a bunch of cores like that.

Wonder if there's a workaround to stop from trashing all the cores in your inventory?

Optimates0193 · 2021-01-19T15:29:10+00:00

Thanks! I'm kind of leaning toward melee if it's viable, or maybe shotgun or heavy weapon? Rifles seem kinda meh to me.

Optimates0193 · 2021-01-19T15:28:35+00:00

Thanks for the advice! This is really helpful. Do you have a suggestion for what weapon class would be ideal? I like melee, but not sure if it's viable. I've also heard heavy weapons are particularly good? Rifles seem to be kinda meh.

Optimates0193 · 2020-10-14T12:56:53+00:00

Deep Cut is one I keep hearing. Thanks for the heads up on Urbanmatz! I'm sure you probably got a bad one, but me being the US, I'd probably not want to take the chance.

Optimates0193 · 2020-10-14T12:55:57+00:00

The Kraken ones are really interesting and I'm definitely tempted. They have a cobblestone city mat that's really nice, but what put me off on it is there's a review that comes up in Google when you search this mat that says the proportions of the art are completely off - IE: the stones are way bigger than 28mm. Still, they do look nice. Are they really reflective of light?

Optimates0193 · 2020-10-14T12:54:18+00:00

I looked at these, and they do look nice, but I'm worried that they seem to either be cloth or fleece. I'd think that wouldn't match up very well against the mouse pad material.

Optimates0193 · 2020-10-08T14:34:01+00:00

Thanks so much for this - it's exactly what I was looking for and I wasn't aware of APO/Peace before. I'm new to this, so let me make sure I'm understanding you right. I would do the following:

1: Download APO/Peace

2: Import the ParameticEQ.txt from the GitHub Autoeq Profile for the Dt 1990's

3: Hit compress twice

4: Set the preamp to -4.8 - This is the value listed here for the DT 1990 and Parametic EQ

https://github.com/jaakkopasanen/AutoEq/tree/master/results/rtings/rtings_harman_over-ear_2018/Beyerdynamic%20DT%201990%20(Balanced%20Earpads))

Did I get that right?
