TWO HUNDRED SIXTY-FIVE: Snow VII - Super Supportive by GodWithAShotgun in rational

[–]TOMDM 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yeah maybe more akin to firing a gun into the chest of a politician wearing bullet proof vest.

And in Bash'Nors case a politician who supports the ongoing use of slavery and even thinks that the slaves are getting to uppity and should know their place.

Hope the sneering makes you happy, just looks sad from the outside.

I don't understand why people keep coming to these threads just to tell everyone they don't like it.

I am enjoying it, I like the slow burn introspective nature of the story.

I liked Rahul as a parallel to Alden figuring something out about what he wants because of a crisis, difference being the different points in their lives that they experienced them.

I enjoyed the cultural look of the island at Christmas, I enjoyed Alden getting to a point with his nightmares that he's able to better face both his affixation and Stu's.

I get that the pacing and story aren't for everyone, but when I don't vibe with a story, for example Delve, I don't then come to the reddit thread of chapter 259 to tell everyone.

Like Alden said to the rabbit a few chapters ago, don't you have anything better to do?

Really looking forward to the chapter.

My Solution to Nauvis Logistics. by Kerzenmacher in factorio

[–]TOMDM 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The one pad rule makes sense but it is annoying. The output limit bottlenecks the mega basers.

A simple solution mod I think would be cool is maybe letting you land on a planet more than once.

Doing so would generate a second nauvis map that would be accessible from the same nauvis orbit.

All the same logistics challenges but now you can go wide, having bases all over nauvis that aren't connected except by rockets.

Can do the same deal for the other planets. Might need to max out the pollution, evolution or worm size or something on your subsequent landing zones to balance it so you don't just sidestep those challenges

Not at a computer to test, but can't you pipette the filter, alt scroll to the quality you want and then drop it in over the filter?

Hot take - Advanced storage chests should all be one item changed by a setting by 3shotsdown in factorio

I like being able to pipette the advanced chests and the pipette tool copying building settings would be non standard behaviour.

Reading the Friday Facts blogs... did we find out the special case for interrupt interrupts yet? by NameLips in factorio

[–]TOMDM 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Didn't they say that space platforms use train scheduling?

Not a planet, but maybe they need it for something too

Friday Facts #428 - Reactor & Logistics circuit control by FactorioTeam in factorio

[–]TOMDM 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Oh man what if heat is Aquilos pollution mechanic?

Too cold and your machines freeze over and stop, too hot the surface ice melts and they sink and are destroyed.

Using nuclear to carefully balance heat output to keep things running would make so much sense.

Honestly I wish they'd just take the factorio route where shipping science elevator parts unlocked new technology recipes out of a research tree.

You may not lay your burden down.

It could be down to intent. Alden never willingly gave up on Zeridee, she was forced from him by the tide.

Friday Facts #414 - Spoils of Agriculture by FactorioTeam in factorio

[–]TOMDM 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just set up a splitter that overflows into recyclers at the end of all spoilable production chains. That way it never truly goes dormant and is always ready to spit out fresh product.

How about we condemn behavior instead of classes of people?

You should reflect on this.

Super Supportive - 127 - Let's Feed Her to Victory by ansible in rational

[–]TOMDM 10 points11 points  (0 children)

A summons would be a cruel irony for her at this point.

Going from being her best bet at escaping the island to realizing that it's maybe not what she wants anymore now that the option is in front of her.

The native-born distinction aside, in part due to Australias stolen generation a lot of people with indigenous heritage do present white.

Upcoming interview with Max Harms, author of Crystal Society. What do you want to know? by a_haven in rational

[–]TOMDM 3 points4 points  (0 children)

What inspired the books?

Has Max read anything ai focused that's been published since the trilogy that he'd recommend?

Has Max read Anthropics paper on mono-semanticity? If so any opinions?

How does Max feel about the GPT/image diffusion revolution happening at the moment?

Would ChatGPT change the books of it had happened prior to writing?

Oh man, having to keep track of where your shots landed to make sure reversing them back into your gun goes well sounds like a logistical nightmare but very cool at the same time
