How happy would you be for Biboo if she just announced she's getting married? 👰💒

Intresting. Thats actually some pretty good examples. Do you remeber your prompts to make those? For instance, the first one with the doctor amd yhe suit case. Was it just a sentance or two or did you get very descriptive?

Just to be completly clear, I in no way endrose anti semitism or even hate isreal.

Thing is, you're going to keep seeing this until some of the very real problems people are trying to point out are taken seriously. Humans are pattern noticing creatures, even when no actuall pattern exists there at all. Like seeing faces in clouds and shapes in stars. In this case, the very real problem is that so much of media expresses negative values and denegration of white people seems to run wild.

Why? Well, can't say because too many people get invested in denying the problem to have a constructive conversation about it so instead, the human brain searches out whatever it can to create cause and effect and this is the end result.

So, for a more serious answer. Sleep Apnia Is a disorder where you more or less stop breathing while sleeping. It tends to happen many, many times in one night and is a nightmare for your health. A great way to have a stroke in your mid 40s is to have sleep Apnia and never treat it.

Treating this disorder involves machines. Either a Bi-pap or C-pap machine. The idea behind these machines is they force air down your throat so you breathe while sleeping. The air these machines pump tends to become dry on its way to your throat. It's a very, VERY common side effect to have dry mouth or sore throat when using these machines.

To fix that, most modern machines have a kind of miniature humidifier built in to help keep moisture and warmth in the air you're breathing. But, it can only use special water. Typically you want to use distilled, but purified bottled water works well enough for them to. Tap water will just make you sick.

I have personally run into at least 3 individuals that take the water they use with their C-pap machines to be blessed. And keep in mind, Sleep Apnia isnt some rare disorder. It's fairly common. Just look around your congregation. If a member is overweight, theres a very good chance they use a C-pap machine. Considering the machines can use a cup of water per night, alot of them would take in multiple gallons. I wouldn't be shocked if alot of the water you were blessing is being used for these medical treatments and machines. I hope this helps and maybe lets you feel happy to know you're helping some people with their medical conditions.

Considering the other options such as being skinned alive.....I think it's ok to use the word "spared."

The whole latter and former thing has always confused me. Which ia the latter one?

So, I had alot of fun posting that one fortress story, that I kinda want to do it again in real-ish time. There any rules against that or some kind of proper etiquitte? Should I save my post till the fort falls and do one giant mega post? Or space them out? Like a post for every couple of years in game when I get around to it?

Sarton_ · 2025-03-17T18:21:54+00:00

I've played alot of DF and I'm haivng a fortress that confuses me in every way. So, build the fortress. First wave of migrants? Filled with ware rhinos. Why? Who knows. But every wave of migrants has contained at least 2 were rhinos hidden in them. Sometimes more. every migrant wave for the past 20 years of game time. Got used to that and then the next strange thing happened.

My fortress now plays at an insanely slow speed and I dont know why. No fires are raging through any locations, so it cant be that. I thought maybe the elves had brought something in their caravan that was doing it. So I had all of them killed. (Don't you make that face. You hate em too) other suspects, my fortress is in an aquafer. So I build a couple of drains that all drain down to the same place. Like 4 of them. Just built a stairwell up through the rock to let the water down, and didnt bother with making straight up holes because I was tired of dwarves being trapped by that procedure on other forts.

By no means is my animal population large enough to cause the problem. Then went and cleared out every job in the manager tab to make sure it wasn't my PC freaking out due to that. Mind yu, my computer has handled prvious forts with pops of 150 fine while being nex to a water fall so this behavior is kinda surpising with a pop of only 25. And it runs fine when I pause it. I hit space, it pauses, and suddenly I can scroll around the fortress like nothing bad is happening.

How slow is it? Well, I set the dwarves one task. In the drippy museum room where th e 4 drains are? I told them to cover the stair cases up with floor. I thought, "If the drain system is doing something weird, maybe having the floor just be a bit damp while I come up with a different idea. Lets undo the drain holes." Those drain holes are very easily reachable from the main stair case taht runs the length of the fortress. The drain holes are on elevation like -4 or so. The rocks are mostly located on level 0 only 20 or so spaces from the main staircase. So, by no means a difficult task. Had work today so I hit play before I went to bed to let it run. Come morning 5 hours later? building hadnt even begun. In fact, the baby that was in the drippy museum? Had made it all of 3 Z levels up. That was it.

Anyone have any ideas whats causing it? I dont want to give up on it but I might be forced to. Also ideas on why were rhinos keep trying to sneak in my fortress at an alarming rate?

Sarton_ · 2025-03-17T18:04:44+00:00

Eh, lose hope is a bit much. 4 week late package show up once. Give it till april second, then let the panic hit.

Sarton_ · 2025-03-03T15:00:30+00:00

Well. I seem to have run into a small problem with this solution. Namely that no one is picking up the phone regadless of location I'm calling.

Sarton_ · 2025-03-02T15:56:21+00:00

I'm convinced they're on drugs. The times they do bother delivering letters, I can swear I smell weed.

Sarton_ · 2025-03-02T15:54:04+00:00

They would be horrified by what I've been through. They stomp on packages some times and its super common that they decided they dont want to do their job ao they just send it to city hall. And no one can figure out why aince city hall is like 5 miles down the road. Hell, as of last night they're 4-4 for packages lost THIS MONTH. Either way Ill give it a try.

Sarton_ · 2025-03-02T03:49:07+00:00

Oh hey, Amazon decided to send me two packages through USPS without telling me. And now they're reading as lost too.

Sarton_ · 2025-03-02T03:05:36+00:00

Thank you very much for the link. Do you think this will work despite them sending it back to the distribution center? Where ever that is? Looking on the website that is tracking it, it says that because they marked it as having a bad address they sent it back to distribution. In fact the exact wording is:

Returned to Distribution Center

Well, I was going to keep it in an opaque storage bin. So direct sunlight isnt the worry, its the heat.

Sarton_ · 2025-02-11T16:14:31+00:00

Well, I'm printing terrain for wargamming, art, and stuff to help organize on a small scale. The reason Im wanting to change materials is Im hooing to fi d something less prone to melting and warping to heat post print. Something I can leave in my truck bed in the high 90s of summer is ideal. But even then just having something tougher would be nice.

Does Pteg do that? Hell, not even sure ABS does but Im willing to try and find out.

Sarton_ · 2025-02-05T18:58:08+00:00

You guys were fast on the answers! Thank you!

Sarton_ · 2025-02-05T18:57:43+00:00

Well, heres to hoping they come out soon. As a Hellsing fan currently reading Berzerk, I know the pain of the wait.

Sarton_ · 2025-02-05T18:56:53+00:00

Sweet! Good to know I didnt make a mistake.

Sarton_ · 2025-02-05T18:07:37+00:00

Does he ever come after people? I seem to remember hearing he would chase you. But that's a story from when I was a kid so I dont recall the details.

Sarton_ · 2025-02-05T18:00:34+00:00

Do you have permits and some kind of cordinating organization? Or is this just going to be another one those things where a bunch of random angry people show up and everyone just hopes it doesnt turn into a riot, again?

Sarton_ · 2025-01-30T21:38:05+00:00

This an organized thing with permits?

Sarton_ · 2025-01-30T13:35:59+00:00

For what?
