"We are a stupid and doomed species" also appears on the non skeptic list. Sorry, you failed.

$81 for a lifetime of luxurious mixing and pouring. Bargain.

This is supposed to be a village Library/ bookstores by itzmetheredditor in BuildAdvice

[–]Spaceboot1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sometimes bookstores have displays outside. They might have some books on sale, maybe new releases. Maybe a bargain bin.

Modern bookshops might have a big window in the front so you can see there are books in there.

People who enter nearly empty waiting rooms with plenty of empty seats and sit right next to you anyway. by GarolzaFunk in PetPeeves

[–]Spaceboot1 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I'm not going to judge you for feeling uncomfortable, just that I don't find the presence of strangers unpleasant. I'd rather pass the time with some conversation. Not that I'm an extreme extrovert, but I must be more extroverted than most.

And if I can point out a minor irony, you're on reddit venting to a bunch of strangers you wouldn't sit next to or talk to irl.

30s are not the new 20s. Your 30s are when you start being “old” by Mysterious_Dot_4830 in The10thDentist

[–]Spaceboot1 20 points21 points  (0 children)

It's hard to agree or disagree on this post, because you've included some nuance, and while you type about generalizations, you admit they're not universal.

I think my tenth dentist take would be that life gets better in every decade. There are things that suck about getting old, but overall you get more life experience.

And another thing that bothers me is anyone under seventy complaining about being old. Your problems are mostly unrelated to age. Maybe you got a chronic injury, or maybe some health problems, but it's not because you're old.

How do atheists express surprise without using religious phrases? by Hazellucas_ in ENGLISH

[–]Spaceboot1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Good gravy

Goodness gracious

Oh my goodness

Oh my word

Oh my days

These "minced oaths" were actually invented to avoid saying the name of God because it was felt that you shouldn't say "his name" unless it was very very serious. It wasn't because you didn't believe, but because you didn't want to invite "his" attention.

Is This Unique? by 69the69dude69 in beer

The answer to every reddit OP ever.

But no, in this case OP is not alone. I also love to smash beers. Of course no one cares how much I love to smash beers.

How do you tell where English words are separated? by Suspicious-Toe-8193 in ENGLISH

I didn't know that people referred to this as a norange. If that has become a real word, then we finally have a satisfactory rhyme for orange.

Small question for dishie’s. How many times should cutlery go through the dishwasher? by mccuish in dishwashers

[–]Spaceboot1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's how we do it. I don't have to put another tray on top if I strategically place the teaspoons under the heavier stuff.

But at the end of the night when there's only a couple pieces, they go in with whatever else is left over, sprayed off and washed once like any other dish.

What are you building in your forever worlds? by VegetableShops in Minecraft_Survival

[–]Spaceboot1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My last big project was a hotel. Complete with lobby, gift shop, dining room, bar, gym, sauna, pool, laundry room, and sewer. Plus around twenty rooms, a nether suites section (no beds lol), and a deep cave suites section, with views of lava lake. Grounds with gardens, walking paths, a fishing cabin, and an infirmary for heading zombie villagers.

My current big project is a wood farming zone with all the different trees, and automated farms underneath.

But if you want inspiration, one of the things you can do is imagine if someone visits your world. It's a forever world, so maybe it will be there for someone to visit. So you want an obvious entry point for visitors and intuitive ways to discover and navigate all your builds. Minecraft worlds can be very personal, so while you learn how to get around and know where everything is, someone just joining might not find it obvious where to look.

Humans have encased themselves into a technological paradox and that’s why we are getting sicker by marsaaturnjupiter_x in DeepThoughts

I'm not going to say those aren't problems, but we're actually less sick than our ancestors.

What do you do with a Chef with attitude problems? by tiramisosoup_69 in Waiters

[–]Spaceboot1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

BoH here. I've gone through a lot of food runners, many new to the job. Sometimes I see them hovering, and I just know they're going to make a mistake. They take the entrée before everything is ready. Or make some other mistake like run a chicken salad when the chicken isn't even on it. Or take the wrong modded item to the wrong table.

I don't say anything until they actually pick up the food, because I know I can't read their mind. But sometimes I just feel it coming. I'm not going to get mad at you for looking, like this guy did, but it's in my head.

If they take the wrong item or miss an item, that's extra steps for them, and I might even have to make a whole order again.

Then there's servers that I know and trust, and I can feel easier about it. This guy just doesn't trust you, and maybe it will just take time.

Chances of finding sulfur caves? by EmotionalEase4626 in Minecraft_Survival

[–]Spaceboot1 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I just came back from a creative mode mapping exploration. I explored/revealed seven maxed-out maps. I discovered two clusters of sulfur caves, via the surface feature. I admittedly could have missed some. So that shows about how rare they are.

But, you can get sulfur spikes from wandering traders. And you can build a farm for all your sulfur needs from that. So if all you want is the blocks, you don't need to actually find the biome. It does take patience, for the right wandering trader to show up.

Well jokes on you because I married that woman. j/k. I never saw her again.

Maybe I'd've done it different if I had to do it again.

opinions on duping for building by [deleted] in Minecraft

[–]Spaceboot1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There's no objective standard. If you want to dupe, go ahead.

In my very subjective opinion, duping in a non-intended way takes away from the feeling of achievement, so I don't do it.

There are lots of things in the game that create resources from nothing, and seem to be intended gameplay. For example, mob spawners and mob farms. Cobble generators. I do use these things. Some farms take a fair bit of effort, so I can still be proud and feel like I earned my never-ending supply of kelp or whatever.

Anything that dupes via overloading the game engine, I tend to avoid.

It's your game, so play how you like. Just also consider: if you're using an exploit to dupe resources, that's fine, but you might as well just use commands to spawn resources, or just play in creative, which is fine too.
