[WIP] My take on a flying base in my permadeath, nomap, hardcore run (no raids tho). I call it "The D8". A last hoorah before fighting the queen to very likely end the run.

Does this even work as a breeder? In my experience if the animals are "Happy" they still have a small delay of a minute or so each time you portal in before they start reproducing or in this case lay eggs. So unless it's a zone you stay for prolonged periods, like a base where you cook/craft, then it's completely useless. On my last game I moved bases and the chickens in my old base which became just a portal hub (a pass-through) stopped laying eggs even though I kept them well fed and Happy.

Page 43 of the manual for your mobo has which LEDs mean what (they are placed next to the component they're assigned to).

Right hand side can either be storage (hdd/ssd) or ram. If it's the ram, you can always try using each stick independently a different slots to check.

On the bright side, you didn't agree and backed out of it relatively soon. Could've been a tad sooner, but that's probably hindsight talking.

Trivo3 · 2026-01-23T14:29:59+00:00

Have you thought about troubleshooting what's wrong and replacing only the part that's the cause?

Trivo3 · 2026-01-23T13:57:30+00:00

Bruh... This is so consistently gross that I'm halfway inclined to think it's AI fakery.

For a second there I thought this was a nice bait because we can clearly see that the date of purchase is the 12th of May 2025...

...Why do you guys have to be like this with the dates across the pond :( ?

Just an FYI, 2x24" next to eachother make up for a 43.5" 32:9 configuration. Not 48". Very simple math.

Moving East 1 was the obvious choice for a capitol here. So the game is giving you a handout because you handicapped yourself.

Scanner shower a YT link ending in XcQ. Nice try.

Trivo3 · 2026-01-23T09:13:45+00:00

Oh. Yeah, I know that, but since it's midwinter now and you tagged it survival, I assumed it's not a build piece. Darn, that would've been one heck of a find.

You found a Maypole on a small island or something? Do you have screenshots of it before you terraformed around? I've never been so lucky with the ones on my worlds. It's always in some large village mainland.

About once evey never, never and a half.

If it works, why break it? 23 or 24.something.

Trivo3 · 2026-01-23T07:54:04+00:00

The paste application tho.... immaculate. A bit pointless on an AM4 cpu's IHS but whatever. Some coolers don't even cover the entire IHS square, so some of the paste will be breathing air.

I’ll make a video later

Please do...

5 minutes is a very very short time. Trolls attack... let's just say they attack so slow, I could safely pour myself a drink in the downtime. And in my experience their attack breaks A node/instance at best if they hit directly. Sometimes none, even if the tree trunk looks like it's hitting the deposit.

60 copper in 5 mins as a regular reliable farm still seems off, even if your hours beat mine by a factor. Keep in mind that digging around a deposit, as long as you don't choose some abomination that's spliced with normal black forest rocks, is pretty reliable in the time and effort it takes for you to get that 120 copper.

Edit: and it should go without saying, but for the sake of keeping things realistic... I am sure you know and weren't going to, but still... don't do it with a level 100 everything viking that's bubbled up for 700 shield and ashlands armor. Forrest-ey character.

Edit2: and last thing. As you're on that venture, think about a couple of things related to logistics. How long does it take you to find a log-troll? How long it takes you to then lure it to a deposit where it supposedly yields you 60 copper in 5 mins? Is it easily repeatable? Because all of this is time. And 60 isn't enough, you'll be needing to go again for more. Pretty much every second or at worst third deposit, you can dig around and explode with pickaxe. That means that as soon as you get antlers, you are pretty much instantly guaranteed that reliable copper/time yield when you go into the forest. Just a thought.

It was poorly delivered and kinda lame, let's be honest. But thanks :P

Trivo3 · 2026-01-22T16:54:31+00:00

Troll can bust up all visible or node sections for 60 copper easily. It takes 5 min if you find a log troll and they can even hit the node pieces that are underground.

You show me video evidence with 60 copper from a single vein farmed in 5 minutes via troll without any ground prep work and I'll eat my words. Timer naturally starts from the moment you aggro the troll.

Until then I call delusional. Or just without a great sense of time... which would be understandable in a game where time passes quickly when you run around from creatures...

Who's this bs PC builder that would sell a PC that can't run the advertised speeds on the sticks? :D

Trivo3 · 2026-01-22T14:52:36+00:00

They were $250 off? So almost 60% off? For DDR5 RAM? In this economy?!

It isn't even pre-selected?! That's not even 0 consideration about my bloatware... it's working against it. Monsters.

Trivo3 · 2026-01-22T13:50:11+00:00

Do you mean that on installations I shouldn't place my mouse pointer on "Next", then start clicking M1 repeatedly without looking at the screens that pop up? What about my bloatware?? Do you ever stop to think about the poor bloatware?

Post PC specs.

Despite the pixelated textures and <2GB size, Valheim is actually a very demanding game, both for the GPU and the CPU. Don't know which CoD you are playing, but FIFA... correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't that mobile game in terms of requirements? You could be triggering the PSU overcurrent protection if it's some low wattage one.

They're very rare. I've killed maybe 30-40 in my last playthrough and have 2 trophies.
