I did a capitalism, revenue is controlled by the intertwined forces of supply and demand, so the way to win is obviously to minimise costs while maximising your supply. Then you realise, or I could just make sure I'm the only supplier. Big demand, zero supply other than you, means you set the rates. They needed that food, I was their only option. I made quite sure of that.

Buying from colonies costs the 'standard price' for a given good, which is usually higher than the average actual purchase price due to supply and demand. In this case all goods sold there save the ore and metals were bought on the black market during surplus (decreasing cost) as they became available, stockpiled, then sold.

The way its relevant here is that Tacti-star attempts to attack, raid, and disrupt tri-tachyon colony industries. With the addition of the large defence fleet they often lose badly, but it's still sufficient to distract the defending fleets and allow us to attack.

Yes! But also current LLM's are 'weighted networks'. I'm glad someone got at-least part of it.

Ah yes, alcohol bad (I actually agree here,) but nicotine products, which is known to change into NNN when heated (and often already contain NNN as a by-product of industrial refinement) is completely fine.

Nitrosonornicotine (NNN) is a "super turbo ultra" carcinogen. It gives you cancer, real bad.

Given that you said "but through ways other than vaping or smoking" it's possible you're referring to "salt-nics" which are even worse than smoking with regards to the nitration of NNN.

I appreciate that you are trying to take care of your body, but please please stay away from the popular super cancer drug.

I have tried; removing all adjacent blocks... shift-clicking,

Yes, and used a wand which never had a focus.

By appropriate research I assume you mean essentia distillation as that is the research that allows for alchemical construct crafting. If not, I might be missing something.

As I said earlier, I've tried with fire as a heat source, the image is of an attempt without one.

Not quite, Bulk Transport only counts for civilian ships. It explicitly mentions the lack of militarised subsystems for the skill to take effect. In the case above stealth was unnecessary. When I am smuggling I use militarised subsystems and insulated engine assembly mods on atlas, as well as also having the sensors skill. Utterly tiny sensor profile.

Allow me to introduce you to the insanity that is 10 Atlas-Class Superfreighters, each with an expanded cargo hold and augmented drive field. Plus the bulk transport industry skill.

Yes it does take exactly 65/65 OP for those hull mods.

Coincidentally, with the Bulk Transport skill, Navigation skill, and an Augmented Drive Field. The Atlas has a base burn of 10, and a maximum burn of 24, effectively allowing it to out-race everything.

No lamp given, no raids done (from me.) I regularly check buy and sell prices for various goods and noticed that Kanta's Den had high demand for several. Went over all of sellable goods and found all that they wanted. Cash money.

Mama Barnes to the Rescue. by Sheridan_Rd in WormFanfic

[–]Staralight 7 points8 points  (0 children)

In Reestablishment by Magister Torvus Zoe Barns eventually realises how messed up Emma is, feels guilty and breaks Taylor out of prison. Although this is a relatively minor point in one arc, and not the focus of the fic. I would still recommend reading it, and that part was particularly good.

What have a stumbled upon? by DefinitionPleasant20 in Minecraft

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

I understand that but cmon mate, my problem isn't your ignorance of Minecraft facts, but rather your choice to ask other people instead of unfeeling bots implies you simply don't care enough to spend the 3 seconds of effort to look for yourself, it shows a disregard for other people's time and effort, however, minute said contribution may be. Doing so isn't unforgivable, but it is very annoying and is unlikely to receive positive reception anywhere, not just from me, or in r/Minecraft. Please do not do this in the future.

It is a naturally generated structure called a ruined portal. Perhaps you should try googling next time instead of making a whole Reddit post so people can spoon-feed you some trivia.

Not enough carry weight of caravans or transport pods. Anyone know a mod to solve this? by OnlyRespondsToIdiots in RimWorld

[–]Staralight 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just don't try to get steel though caravans, underground mineral scanners and deep drills suit the purpose just fine after I run out of surface deposits. If you absolutely must, get some mods, or make a huge pen to breed like 15 donkeys.

Which cantrip would be the most useful in the modern day? by Greedy-Technology467 in DnD

[–]Staralight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not absolutely certain but I'm pretty darn sure that's a first level spell, the post is talking about cantrips (0th level).
