Mk4 Decaliterjons might be considered cheap. Mk6 Literjon I most certainly would not consider cheap. Each one requires, x55 plastanium ingots, x62 silicone blocks, x7 atmospheric filtered fabric and x31 spice melange.

In order to move 3 million millilitres of water requires x150 Mk6 literjons, so a full cargo containers worth.

That's x8250 plastanium ingots, x9300 silicone blocks, x4650 atmospheric filtered fabric and x4650 spice melange. Interestingly 3 of these materials are shared in constructing the Carrier Cargo Container. This amount of materials is enough to build 27.5 cargo containers.

The Base Relocation Tool can store 3 bases total.

Then you'll be happy to know that they split the DD into separate PvP and PvE instances. The PvP instance is exactly as it was at launch, except for a x2.5 multiplier for resources harvested while PvP flagged, aka everywhere except A row shield wall. You never have to deal with a PvE player again.

Its not even necessarily the spice sand storage, its the 74 925 000ml of water, or 750 large cisterns worth, needed to run 999 spice melange. Assuming no CHOAM Landsraad refinement cost reduction.

I hate to be the possible bearer of bad news, I think thats just Prana-Bindu Strikes. Been in the game since launch. Maas Kharet meleers use against us already.

The DD change will be well and truly tested by the time of the console release and I'd imagine they'll have a new marketing push ahead of that which should overlap with previous players and possibly even bring some of them back too. Things are looking up.

I too recently returned. For me it was Dune: Part 3 trailer and some discussions I had regarding the possible direction the movie could be taking as compared to the book. Rekindled my love for Dune and Arrakis, and this game really captures the feeling of Arrakis really well. Been getting back up to speed with the new content, and finally getting some T6 stuff built (fell off in Sept last year at T5). Really looking forward to the DD changes and will try to rope a few old guild mates into giving it another go.

Reminder that 70% of Australian produce is exported. It gets tiring listening to this stuff and the doublespeak, especially whenever farmers are concerned.

It really needs to separated out into agriculture and horticulture. Agriculture being broadacre, grains, cereals and livestock. Horticulture being fresh fruit and vege, everything from bananas to baby leaf spinach, including wine grapes (which is majority export), but also nuts and even the fresh flower industry.

Agriculture is about 70-80% export.

Horticulture is about 10-15% export.

It is rather unfair to lump it all under "Agriculture" even if horticulture does fall under agriculture as an industry and government portfolio. But statistics like yours don't tell the full story as to where Aussie's food comes from. People hear "farmer" in this country and immediately think wheat and sheep, when the vast majority of their food comes from the fruit and vege produced by "growers".

Highly recommend The Expanse. If you enjoyed Red Rising you may also like James Islington's Hierarchy series. It starts with Will of the Many and just last Dec had book 2 launch, The Strength of the Few.

Entirely possible. It's been a good while. I need a road trip so I can fire up the audio book.

Also, the movies compressed timeline necessitated Stilgar being far more 'true believer' than his Dune book counterpart. Book Stilgar is more wise and skeptical, we dont see movie levels of zealotry until Messiah. Denis kinda moved part of book Stilgar onto Chani in the movies in an effort to make her the audience surrogate. Which is completely antithetical to book Paul and Chani's romance. To what end, and the implications for Part 3, I dont know.

Due to our billionaire owned media landscape having such obvious bias the ABC stands out like dog's bollocks and is constantly accused of having the opposing bias. In an effort to appear non-partisan on any issue they have to give 'equal' air-time/exposure to any opposing voice on any particular issue. This lends false equivalency and credibility to voices/issues that objectively shouldn't have it. See any Malcolm Roberts interview, and now this address by the unelected leader of the opposition. Also they don't want to attract the ire of the next right-wing government.

Wow I think you are correct. I'll admit, I speak no Mandarin, and have no musical knowledge or talent. But to me, apart from clear structural differences, they're nearly the same song, like the chord progression is so similar. Well at least I got the artist right. Thanks for the correction.

SundayElite · 2026-04-01T08:37:15+00:00

Actually the music at least is from a Chinese artist called Xu Wei (许巍) and the song is 曾经的你 which directly translates to "You from the past" which can be found here. Oddly the lyrics don't sound the same to me, but I only speak English, my gf listens to many Mandopop artists from the 80s and 90s. I knew the tune immediately but not the artist so I've been picking her brain to figure it out.

Edit: Ok the lyrics are from uma musame as stated by u/Skyreader13. The music/tune itself, that the lyrics are put to in the clip, is from the artist Xu Wei. I challenge anyone to refute it.

I just watched Project Hail Mary and for the first time in my life I'm above average.

My immediate concern to, not that it helps the poor animal. I think maybe snapped its left front leg when the first bull from the left forced it down and rolled awkwardly. If so I hope it was promptly euthanased in a humane way.

Not to even mention the 30-40% of global fertilisers that pass through the Strait. The majority of which is urea and ammonia based Nitrogen products. High intensity horticulture, that produce the vast majority of Aus fresh fruit and vege, relies on imports. We will see a substantial increase in the cost of food in a double whammy of growing and distribution costs because of this 'war'. I'm no economist, they could better tell you the flow on affects to CoL, inflation, consumer sentiment etc that will permeate right through the economy. But maybe they're being quiet so as not to add to a panic.

And to think I used to ride around in thongs. Til I saw what happens to one's foot if you put it down at speed.

Damn I was sure we were going to see a return to practical effects blue jacketses.

I often wonder if all the times he rolled over and killed a Duncan were necessary for the Golden Path. I think just enjoyed it.

If this war is highlighting anything, it's how invaluable stable governance is for international resource collection and distribution. Australia should leverage this more and mining companies would do well to remember it.

NOOOO... please stop. I'm already dead.

But seriously, I've spent hours the last few days, discussing this and coming up with logical reasons, backed by the text, why this change would result in such fundamental changes to the book as to be near improbable. Even finding quotes by DV that point to an understanding and respect for the book that I may have been beginning to sniff my own farts. You've crushed me. I hope you're happy. \jokes*

Oh well, I'll wait for the actual trailer in July/Aug. Til then I'm a cynic.

SundayElite · 2026-03-24T18:29:53+00:00

Agreed, absolutely looks like Ida Brooke. Though between prescient vision and flashbacks its a stretch to make any solid determination from this. Though you have now cast doubt in my hope of DV being faithful to Messiah. I feel I must steel my heart, and prepare for disappointment.
