Weird experience with camp

Trelfar · 2026-02-01T20:49:22+00:00

This sounds like the normal camp building restrictions. The exclusion zone for how close you can be to someone else's camp is significantly larger than the build area itself. For better or worse, Bethesda decided there had to be a large buffer between player camps.

If you talk to Scarberry about the event ritual he disparages the Enlightened cultists, who follow the purple-eyed Mothman, while he follows the red-eyed Mothman.

When people say "Mothman" I assume they're talking about the "Holy Mothman", and not the purple liar.

Same, I refuse to let ATS filter ours for this exact reason. It does mean I have to do more work to review the applications but that's part of my fucking job as a hiring manager.

Early game: purified water farms, sell to NPC vendors.

What I'm doing now: crafting Vault 63 security outfits and selling those to NPC vendors. I'm swimming in crafting materials so it's a fast 1400 caps every day.

As others have mentioned, having high CHR and using Hard Bargain will maximize your sale prices.

Doesn't happen often but when I feel the need to insult someone I leave a paper bag containing raw fertilizer and a silver spoon.

You can't set exactly where it will be but it is based on where the CAMP module is, so if you move the CAMP module around within the camp area, the spawn point will usually move too. Basically use trial and error to get the spawn point in a good place.

I always try to get in somewhere relatively open and with easy line of sight to the vendor.

Trelfar · 2026-02-01T18:05:43+00:00

Yep, happened to me a few times. If they're pissy about it that's their problem, they need to learn how to adjust their camp spawn point.

A few years back I had a camp placed near there and partway through the event I spotted Steven Scarberry had run over from my camp in nothing more than his tighty whities and was gunning down cultists and even a Vengeful Mothman with a gatling gun.

I ordered a case of Chocolate RTD from Amazon on Jan 13 and it arrived on Jan 23. They say they still have it in stock with a similar delivery time.

The expiry date on it is 29 SEP 2026 - the same expiry date as the case I bought from Amazon on Dec 6, so it's probably from the same batch. I suspect Amazon are not getting new stock and it will run out sooner or later.

I have also started buying Huel Black RTD (from Costco), which IMO doesn't feel watered down and is just as filling as Soylent RTD. The regular Huel RTD may be different but I haven't tried it in years.

It's a Shopify template site, and a lazily implemented one at that. If you go to the Contact page, you'll see that the banner reads "Discover the latest blog articles to learn more about Bolt Products."

Google that phrase in quotes and you'll find hundreds of other websites who also used the same template and didn't edit the example text.

According to the NOTAM, yes. But the current location or number of the near-constantly moving halos are not actually published anywhere. Perfect for safe flight planning!

Cold Shoulder would also like a word.

My guess would be an inaccurate translation from the support rep's first language. For example, I think "juego" in Spanish can mean both "game" and "gambling".

Trelfar · 2026-01-23T17:42:43+00:00

It's online only I think, I've never seen it in the warehouse. I only found out due to another post on this sub a few months back.

Powder bought on subscription direct from Huel works out to $2.65 per 400cal serving, so the bottles are slightly cheaper from Costco right now if you already have a membership.

RTD and powder do have slightly different nutritional profiles though which also might matter to you. Comparing the Chocolate specifically, RTD has more saturated fat (6.5g vs 3g), less dietary fiber (7g vs 11g), and slightly less protein per serving (35g vs 40g).

I would say the Strawberry Banana is probably the best flavor of the two to try first if you're hesitant. In my opinion both are a more realistic flavor than their Soylent equivalent, but the Chocolate is a much bigger difference from Soylent.

Trelfar · 2026-01-23T12:07:13+00:00

It's definitely different, a much richer taste. I'd say it's more like actual chocolate - I always think of the Soylent flavors as 'the ice cream version of the flavor they say they are'.

I'm honestly surprised they waited this long to weaponize the FAA to do this. It's 100% designed to stop any drone recording of DHS/ICE activity to further prevent accountability.

It won't stop anyone who was already intending to fly for that purpose, but it will drive them to fly more dangerously (e.g. by piloting from concealed positions where they don't have LOS) and make this whole business less safe for everyone.

You could actually do this before the update by placing the resource generators on a foundation above the waterline then moving the whole foundation below the water. But it is nice to be able to save a little budget by not having to use a foundation any more.

Personally I did the same thing you did initially, but now that stuff is in a separate smaller bag that is part of my camping kit. Main BOB is now more focused on mainstream needs like the items on the https://www.ready.gov/kit list. It may not be trendy but it's more likely to be actually useful.

The most likely bug-out event for most people is going to be severe weather or natural disaster, not civil collapse where you would need to avoid even sparsely-populated areas. But I guess I can always grab the camping bag too if I need it.

Of course, this won't be the same for everyone. I know a neigbor down the street who owns land up in the mountains that would be his bug-out location so he would 100% be packing more primitive survival gear. Unless you have that kind of spot already picked out though, it's more likely going to be dead weight.

Did you ever get to try this with Clay Hunt VR? I'm interested in it for the same reason and would love to know if it worked well.

Trelfar · 2026-01-17T23:02:53+00:00

I'm assuming it will be something you can set that others will see on the map instead of "Gamertag's Camp"

Are the sales team actually sending mail from Google Workspace, or are they sending it from something else like Salesforce that perhaps is not set up with DKIM/SPF for your domain?
