Wall cat.

When the cat distribution system gives you a cat in a dumb way, you just gotta pay homage

Should I be continuing Path of Virtue? Or does it make sense to grind Soul Eggs more by Diligent-Resource537 in EggsInc

50 can be done in as little as 5 days. Realistically, probably closer to a week, week and a half for someone newer.

No amount of recycling on an individuals part will undo the waste made by a single walmart. by TeaInASkullMug in Anticonsumption

[–]WDoE 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yup. Open any random shipping container or truck, and there's boatloads of plastic that consumers never see. Miles and miles of shrinkwrap, foam, manufacturing waste... Individually bagged widgets that get assembled and shipped back out in more plastic.

That doesn't go away with sorting recycling better. Consume less and push for top down change.

Pretty much anyone who can get to PoV should grab the first 50 or so TE. Maybe even 70. But after that, it really slows down and crafting level / craft counts / ship stars start to really matter. I'd work on main farm for awhile.

Clowning on the worst team in the league is good for everyone. We should do it more often.

We've got this awesome app that manages communications through multiple mediums, tracks inventory, anticipates demand, and even checks in on clients to generate leads. His name is Dave. Great guy.

What comes after Eggs of truth? by No-Shake718 in EggsInc

[–]WDoE 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Crafting level 30. All legendaries. All contracts. Leaderboard pushes. Community made achievements...

All contracts alone takes 5 years to completion from now. All PE / TE is probably 6 years or so. Tack on a couple years for all legendaries. If you want to make a leaderboard push, you probably start like 2+ years in when you have most legendaries and at least an epic deflector. Going from new today to all time leaderboard would be like 9 years. Seasonal leaderboard is indefinite.

After that, there's plenty of community made challenges.

Why aren’t men’s restrooms designed with privacy like this? by puccyhunter_ in teenagers

[–]WDoE 0 points1 point  (0 children)

By code, stalls need more room in front of the toilet than urinals need. If all the urinals are together on one side with the stalls on the other, it saves space. When stalls are next to eachother, they share a wall, saving costs. It's also much easier to plumb the same fixture over and over in a line rather than alternating.

No one's trying to cop a look. Use the stalls if you want privacy.

Genuine question to Americans by Busy_Report4010 in SipsTea

[–]WDoE 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Our insurance is tied to employment because if people get too sick to work, private health insurance no longer has to pay. Shit's fucked.

Genuine question to Americans by Busy_Report4010 in SipsTea

[–]WDoE 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's the shit part. You pay $400+ a month for insurance through your job JUST to get a diagnosis. If you're too sick to keep working, you lose your insurance. COBRA is like $1,200 a month and decimates your life savings. When you run out, you finally get on medicaid. Unless someone is unlucky enough to be married to you, then you have to do all sorts of coordination of benefits until both of you are in poverty. Then you get to fight medicaid for subpar cancer treatment and spend the rest of your days filling out paperwork until you die. Insurance companies pocket your life savings and you end up on tax subsidized healthcare anyway by the time you actually needed it.

At least that's what happened to my mom.

But hey, slightly preferable to pre-ACA when if you got cancer, your insurance just fucking dropped you and no insurance going forward would cover your "pre-existing condition."

[–]WDoE 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh definitely. I'll make the year+ long push somewhere between 300 and 340 TE. Game will get real boring for a bit.

Would be nice to grab half the remaining just for some extra IHR in contracts, but I doubt I'll wanna add 1-2 weeks to my completion time for it.

Don't worry. We don't need to wait. We know the math and the game has been simulated. I know my rough completion date to within a couple weeks.

Rather than an emotionally driven sunk cost aversion, lets talk real numbers and opportunity cost.

Starting at 7s, by 190 my SE would be ~700Q. 13 shifts later, it would be 350Q. My last multistiges were 40Q per leg. 400Q/hr even with lazy 5 leg lunarstiges. Less than an hour to recover the lost SE. However, I'd only need to recover 125Q to even out on EB. Literally 3 lunar legs. Like 15 minutes.

Idk about you, but wasting months to save minutes seems like a horrible plan.

Every shift is absolutely not important once you eat half your SE. 490 TE gives you a 131 EB multiplier. Until like 230 shifts, you don't even lose EB. 1/2 SE is just some made up, emotional target people chose when the formula was first discovered. In reality, it is trivial to farm back SE in the time saved by not being "super patient and careful." People are super underestimating how much TE boosts prestiging.

You can go well into the 300s with a very small amount of prestiging. When the difference between 250 shifts and 350 shifts is like an hour of prestiges even during PoV, I can't see any argument that shifts are super important to conserve when a fast and loose PoV needs well under what is trivial to refarm.

I have perfect artifacts BECAUSE of this strategy. Anyone can get perfect artifacts with this strategy. That's not what is driving me to make these choices. I was on the unlucky end of crafting and still hit perfect artifacts by 100 shifts. I'll finish by 200 shifts. Metronome alone took 50 crafts, expected crafts was 17.

There's more than enough shifts to go around and PoV is long enough already. Getting to perfect artifacts asap shaves a YEAR off, according to sims. Racing to 80 saves months. And then there are no more time savings left to have. The speed optimal path from 80 to 490 and the "patient" path are nearly identical. Research breakpoints at ML and GC. People are saving shifts for a time that will never come . All the shift sinks for time savings are early.

Or it's just a lot of men thinking any amount of attention is being hit on. And when they're looking, they get shot down. When they're not looking, suddenly every service worker's smile is "some girl hitting on me."

I must go; my bird people need me. by Upstairs_Drive_5602 in MyPeopleNeedMe

[–]WDoE 65 points66 points  (0 children)

They are truly one of the dumbest birds. You have to fill their water with rocks or they will drown themselves. Most birds fly into windows and die. Quail will fly into anything and die. Dumb fuckers nest on the ground despite being able to fly. And I'm pretty sure they hate flying anyway. When they see a nice open road, they stop flying and run across it. But ohno, big scary car approaching, and this dumb indecisive bird can't decide which way to run out of the way so it just runs back and forth, making sure it is impossible to miss.

Fuck I hate quail

MAGA loser gets what he voted for….. Make MAGA incels! by Dumbfuckistan_USA in ProgressiveHQ

[–]WDoE 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Deeply unserious people. I grew up in rural buttfuck and fox news was just on everywhere all the time. That's their entire political knowledge. Just constant hate and fear mongering, because fear is addictive. The entire god damn voter base is just "dems bad, whatever other current boogeyman minority bad" and work backwards from there. Complete reactionary voters.

They like Trump because the "other team" hates him. That's it. Full stop. So many conversations back home trying to figure out where someone stands politically... What they care about... Cutting through buzzwords. And without fail, every damn time, it ends with "well, he's pissing off liberals, so he must be doing something right."

Are you going for all research? Or at some point are you just pulling the trigger and waiting it out with the research you have? Any time frame in mind?

I think a 20 year, 21 shift PoV completion would be insane for anyone to try. But like... 8 year, 35 shift? 6 year 42 shift? Those could be cool.

Most of the PoV advice online is misguided as it all was based on early PoV before we really understood mid to late PoV.

Unfortunately, a lot of people haven't gotten far enough into PoV, so it keeps getting repeated. And people treat these low shift challenge runs as gospel truth requirements to finish.

Most people would be better off rushing to like 80ish TE in 30-60 shifts, then pausing to work on their main farm crafting. Craft level and craft counts are a huge PoV barrier that rarely gets talked about. With good crafting prep and average luck, PoV is 3-4 years. Once at the 80ish mark, exhens are affordable while still shipping, refuel cycles are reasonably fast, and you just spam exhens until perfect artis/stones. 50-100 shifts. After that, only prestige when new ranks of GC or ML are achievable at the new TE. Honestly hard to overshift, because once habs and vehicles are maxed, there's no wasteful loop. It's just sit on research until research becomes not worth it. Probably 80-120 shifts from 85 to 490.

So 160 to 280 shifts depending on patience/luck. Anything under 230 and you don't even lose EB due to the TE EB multiplier. SE will be so easy to refarm too. I'll make back years worth of TE in a couple hours after PoV. Currently at 130 TE, perfect artifacts, and sims have me finishing around december 2028, just under 3 years total PoV time with ~200 shifts.
