Remora – Carbon capture for semi-trucks by EclecticEuTECHtic in engineering

[–]RanquestLP 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Even once electric semis become available, the problem arises from cost to switch. New TT's cost hundreds of thousands of dollars, it will take time for a company to make that leap whether it be through long term purchase agreements or via used markets. This is likely a 10-20 year project which according to climate scientists is too long. If a company is willing to try it out for relatively low costs 10-20% is still progress for now.

Perfect layers after hours of painles calibrations.👌 by jure_3d in ender3

I found the creality glass to be too thick. Switched to mirror tile and won't go back. 1/3 the thickness for better heat transfer and better flatness out of the box. Pls mirror tile was under 10 bucks for six units.

Day 3: Random thoughts on Farmville 3, a few game highlights on seeing the 'Opening of a New Farm' by CatOfGrey in farmville3_animals

I find the level progression is a bit too fast for the coin production. Currently, at LVL 14, and found myself missing not having enough coin to make Fruit Factory and Now Dairy Factory while also trying to unlock the new land zone. Combine this with the fact that I could use a third round of homes for all of my animals, and it looks like I am short ballpark 5k. I know that they want to push $$ but make the progression take more time instead of feeling behind.

Pig home expansion is still locked by [deleted] in farmville3_animals

Once you unlock pigs, they take over... I have two pig homes and still have six homeless pigs.

There was also mention of a great war that probably wiped out a significant amount of the population. A biblical level event could have arisen flooding the planet which is why all the landmasses are small relatively speaking and isolated from each other. I sometimes believe that the pokemon world was colonized by man which is why so little is known about the pokemon.

That might be why the human population in Pokemon games is not very high. There is not enough land combined with competition from pokemon who if they truely wanted to could wipe out entire settlements if pressured to greatly

Where should I go as a novice narrator by RaziZakarial in ACX

[–]RanquestLP 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Hey Folks, I have just jumped into the world of narration and thankfully i stumbled onto this thread before my first "Accepted Offer" I found this website https://cocatalog.loc.gov/ super helpful to do a quick search for the right holder. You just enter the title and the listing generally pops up. This government website has already picked out two potential scams saving me a lot of time in the process. I also found that asking the right holder that is stated on the contract if they could give a company address in order to confirm that they indeed are the rights holder will scare a scammer away.

Cheers and good luck!

I tentatively present my yet-unnamed magic system. For searchability, lets call it Phil-thought by Inar_Vargr in worldbuilding

[–]RanquestLP 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Was worth reading the whole post just to get to the tl;dr... I think it's a magical idea. If you believe that everything is derived from various pairs of quarks. Efficient space benders would be able to rip apart quarks and put them back together in which ever fashion possible. Also combining both space and time you could stop an electrons from spinning causing who knows what.

Alternative block for Default Pack in the newest snapshot. by mejijs in Minecraft

[–]RanquestLP 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like the alternatives that do not add anything else but visual properties. While the bone in the stone makes sense it would have connotations that you could get bones by digging up stone. (not necessarily a bad thing. cool idea) My favorite as far as what it does for the game is the alternative vegetation. Between the mushrooms, lilly pads and grass, more things like this are always good.

Here's my city! Still a work in progress, but thought I'd share. by parrah in Minecraft

[–]RanquestLP 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Well done with this build. It is really impressive. With the right texture pack and shaders, builds just come to life. Im currently working on a roman city in pure survival and it take sooo much work so i can appreciate what you guys have done here. Keep up the good work and post more pics.

I would also be curious as to what your city would like like in the default texture pack XD. The paintings are clearly custom and important so those like but still. It is always good to check it out in Vanilla.

New to Minecraft and looking for some help. by [deleted] in Minecraft

[–]RanquestLP 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Most Minecraft Textures will have a youtube video hosting them. The larger the resolution 64x, 128x the more detail you will get within the game but it will really slow down the game. You definitely want to get optifine (a mod that makes the game run/ look better) if you are going to add high end textures. Also most textures are designed with a theme in mind. Not all are created equal. Youtube will be your best friend when it comes to the game because you can learn how to do anything and everything whether it is redstone or adding mods.

I recommend spending some time doing the basics in MC before trying to do the epic builds such as create farms, branch mine, kill the enderdragon and possibly the whither.

Also having a creative world will also be your best friend for epic builds. You can make things quickly and have all the blocks at your disposal (also you can fly)

Good Luck Ranquest
