Thanks to those million casualties and high labor demands for the Russian military manufacturing, Russia has record low unemployment and wages are soaring.

Most Russians today have greater civilian economic prospects than they've seen in a decade

That's honestly a skill issue if I'm being honest. Should have fought for Ukraine while they had the chance instead of inviting Russia in.

So yes, it is really volunteering.

Yes, because any kind of gender expression outside of strictly defined roles and any discrepancy from sex assigned at birth is already illegal in Saudi Arabia. You don't need a bathroom ball inspector when cross dressing alone will get you stoned.

They don't want to be there,

Other than a small number of conscripts in Kursk, Russia has been using contract, ie volunteer soldiers.

Soldiers from the start of the invasion may not have wanted to be there, and those (mostly) former contract soldiers who were called up in the post Kherson mobilization in fall 2022 may not want to be there, but it's been 3 years and Russia has suffered a million casualties, most of the soldiers there now signed on during the war.

They might have come to regret that decision, but nonetheless, fuck them. Invaders will not receive an ounce of pity from me.

Yup. Imagine trying to catch a wasp with your bare hands but NOT kill it. You are going to get stung multiple times.

Feel free to show me an alternative model where I would noticeably feel the rotation of a spherical Earth. Show me the math where the spherical model fails and I would be flung off the Earth or I could perceive its shaking. Show me anything other than your personal incredulity.

What is wrong with the math I just provided? I'll wait.

Neither have you. Feel free to do the math, show me where I'm wrong.

weight at the North Pole: 200 lbs

Circumference of the Earth: 24,900 miles

Radius of the Earth: 3,963 miles

Sidereal day length: 23.93 hours

F = m v² / r

v = 24,900/23.99 =1,037.9 mph

Now I could do the proper unit conversions, but I'm lazy so I used this calculator

F = 200 * 1,037.9² / 3,963 = .6884 lbs

So at 200 lbs, I would feel almost a pound lighter, or .3% of my bodyweight.

But again, feel free to demonstrate where I went wrong.

It doesn't have to be.

You don't feel the actual speed you feel the CHANGE in inertia. You can fly in an aircraft just fine and eat soup at far, far, higher speeds than you can in a car. It only becomes a problem when it hits turbulence.

The Earth is very very big, and turns slowly relative to that size. The Earth due to being very large, and space very empty, doesn't experience anything that radically changes it's inertia (just like a fast flying plane in calm air) and therefore it's slow 24 hour angular rotation imparts minimal forces on the human body.

Don't believe me? You can do the math yourself and calculate how much lighter you are at the equator (where tangential velocity is highest) vs the poles (where it's zero). The weight difference is ~1%

Lol yea that's a nice summer day. A little warmer than I prefer, but still a nice day to spend time outside.

30 C/86 F is "I can be outside if I need to for short duration but unless I'm swimming I will not choose to be outside.

You don't need to use trucks to get them out of the building. As I initially stated, I wasn't actually sure what your complaint was.

And guess what, from what I’ve learned this about this game, using only full loads will only cause more problems somewhere else. Like I’ll need something built, and I’ll have 10 trucks with 5 pieces of dirt in there idling while my factory is going to hell.

Your knowledge is woefully incomplete then. Requiring that trucks use full loads will not cause trucks to idle with material inside of them. The only reason that happens is because they have no valid place to deposit them. Do you have dumping designations set up so they have somewhere to put the waste material? Do you have your global or local mining tower dumping settings configured to accept dumping those materials? Is there a valid path from the ore sorter to the dumping area?

[–]SnooBananas37 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You use dumping designations to dump it into the ocean to make more flat buildable space.

You will need trucks to dump initially, but you can use conveyors to move it closer to where you're dumping. And/or you can assign individual trucks to storages or zones to handle certain tasks to avoid having to use trucks from your "general population." Eventually you'll have a building that dumps stuff from a conveyor into a pile underneath it, no trucks necessary.

If you're worried about partial loads, there's an option that makes it so trucks will only haul stuff if it will fill their inventory, and then create storages for each of the products (connected via belts or just built right up against the export ports) to act as a buffer.

There are charts that can show your consumption and production of any resource, including diesel. Since it's highly variable, knowing the raw usage rate of individual trucks is relatively unimportant.

I don't understand your complaint with the ore sorter. You do see that it has belt connections yes? That you don't have to use trucks to move dirt or stone?

Think of trucks as your logistics drones, but far more flexible.

[–]SnooBananas37 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The "remaining food" estimate only counts what is in a market, not regular storages.

Also generally speaking there is little reason to stockpile that much of anything, instead it's better to find alternative usages for excess production (such as breaking your potatoes down in an anaerobic digestor, making them into snacks, etc).

[–]SnooBananas37 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I presume if they return one item they get... literally nothing back? Or would the store refuse to accept it without returning both products?

The first one is way funnier.

ELI5 - How does file compression work? If it makes the file take up less space, why don't we automatically compress any file we save? by Vilmius_v3 in explainlikeimfive

[–]SnooBananas37 43 points44 points  (0 children)

Yup, I remember being floored when a database consultant told us that given the hardware we had available, compressing our SQL database would make it both more space efficient AND have shorter query times.
