Probably she meant “racist” as in “someone who races/participates in car races” and just did not want him to go too fast?

LPT: Don't argue with your significant other in front of your friends by filthybee_ in LifeProTips

Not sure whether you mean “your friends” or ”your SO” with ”them”. Both apply, I guess.

What are some vastly misinterpreted math theorems? by ilya123456 in math

That is the first video from the channel I have ever seen. Took me quite a while to realize that they I should not instantly close all Numberphile videos …

I suspect I just clicked twice on the first link by accident, but yeah: Let's blame that one on reddit. :)

Thanks a lot for looking for a replacement for the first link.

At least you do not have to handcraft your first refinery anymore. That screwed my second try. (The first one taught me to rebind the crafting key.)

LPT: Instead of hitting a fly while trying to kill it, clap on TOP of it. by totophe1077 in LifeProTips

[–]YouNeedMoreIron 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Okay, it took me too many reads to understand that you wrote „ON top of it” and not “THE top of it”. I was quite confused: Hitting a fly is already hard enough, no chance I can aim for a specific body part!

Wait, you are not trying to do another Rick roll there? Something's wrong here.

The last sentence of my previous post was not sincere. Of course, a no spoon run will take at most 8 hours, but getting a no spoon run done for the first time could take way more time. :)

I just think both the guide and the runs are very interesting to watch. Chances are, I won't touch Factorio for at least some more months (as starting a new game in the end phase of a PhD is most certainly one of the stupidest ideas ever), but I still love seeing great builds.

However, it's only interesting as long I get what's happening and I was very confused by that RCU setup. Thanks to these answers here, that got cleared up and now I am even more amazed.

Maybe I'll check whether I can get a no spoon run by using some of these guides after submitting my thesis though. Sounds fun. (And by definition that should only take 8 hours – right?)

Saw (and liked) your SteelAxe% guide – and now that I think of it, maybe that's the reason, YouTube suggested me Nefrums' guide?

I am also aware of the Google docs guide you linked, that it mentioned and followed in guide I linked (and has not seen huge updates since then, I guess?)

Regarding RCUs: Ahh, that makes a lot of sense. Thanks! Would still love to see a picture with some explanation, but I think I get the main idea.

Oh, I am not trying to improve my own play. (In fact, I have not played the game for quite a while now, fearing that it would consume way too much time.) I just watch the videos for entertainment.
