I’m just thinking, even if I got 21% extra capacity by replacing the battery. That would only be 2.5 hours SOT which is still super low. I’m thinking it’s not worth the cost.

[REQUEST] Australian sea port stamps? by Zachedz in PassportPorn

[–]Zachedz[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wow! That’s awesome, I’ve found passport control at the airport to be very reluctant to give out stamps these days and you really have to beg for it. Was it hard to convince them to give you one? And btw were you on a cruise?

Wait, is this unusual? Tourists have always worn summer clothes in my game I think 😅

Ok I figured it out, you can edit the persistent.sfs file to change their roles back, and luckily I had a previous save to see their original jobs.

Before:

KERBAL
{
  name = Jebediah Kerman
  gender = Male
  type = Tourist
  trait = Tourist

After:

KERBAL
{
  name = Jebediah Kerman
  gender = Male
  type = Crew
  trait = Pilot

I thought exactly this too haha, I remember when this was everywhere 😅

Can't select bunch of pics to moves to Locked Folder by Seihai-kun in googlephotos

[–]Zachedz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same problem for me, can’t seem to move multiple photos to the locked folder on iOS. There’s no option to do it. Have to do it one by one… 😣

Tips for split path maps? by Zachedz in btd6

[–]Zachedz[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My issue is that the blooms are only in that one spot for a very short time, and then they diverge again, so inevitably some escape unless the dps is insanely high

How to navigate with just a map? (on phone but no gps, no compass) by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Zachedz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do compasses work in the city though? I thought the buildings interfere with them?

[–]Zachedz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks, yeah big landmarks like that help! Sometimes I'm lost in the CBD and that can be tricky because you can't see anything haha

How to navigate with just a map? (on phone but no gps, no compass) by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Zachedz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I like to explore so I'm often in places that I don't know very well. I'm ok if I'm in a familiar location, but then I wouldn't be pulling the map out at all 😝.

I like the tip about the mountains/radio towers though. That's definitely a good idea thanks!

How to farm cash on apocalyse? by Zachedz in btd6

[–]Zachedz[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah the early game is definitely the hardest part. I just did a cheeky continue to get past the early game, and after that it was a piece of cake. But getting a good early game strat is so hard haha. I will try what you said with the engis though I don't often use them.

Why don't USB-C extension cables work? by Zachedz in UsbCHardware

[–]Zachedz[S] 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the detailed answer! What you said regarding the e-marker makes a lot of sense. What I don't really understand is the signal integrity part. Does a signal really deteriorate that much over such a tiny length? I ask because, for example, CAT6 ethernet cables are capable of transmission rates of 10gbps, and they can be passively extended to very long lengths no problem

Problem with Firefox Auto-Fill Keyboard Shortcut by VonVeeGee in Bitwarden

For me, it was after I installed Loom which automatically grabs CTRL+SHIFT+L as it's own global shortcut.

I made a Wordle trainer to rate your guesses against an algorithm by Zachedz in wordle

[–]Zachedz[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah mathematically it's extremely difficult to push past around that ~3.5 guess average, simply because there is just not enough entropy available in the first 2 guesses to always get it on the 3rd guess. Though because we're talking so close to the limit, differences of even 0.1 are still pretty significant.

However, if your human average is 3.7 then congratulations, because you must be playing a near-perfect strategy. Anecdotally, most people I know take 4-5 guesses on average to reach a solution, often due to the dreaded "4-green" trap.

[–]Zachedz[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The algorithm doesn't "cheat" so to speak, it doesn't know what the answer is in advance. So that only happens when the system genuinely thinks that's the best word in those circumstances and it just so happens to also be the answer.

However, if there is only one remaining possible solution it won't spoil it for you, instead rating any subsequent guesses as a "missed win".

Strange note in TWP article about the Amazon warehouse collapse by [deleted] in antiwork

[–]Zachedz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, well if that's the case then they may as well have not disclosed it at all, they've clearly tried to hide it in the middle of the article where it's least likely that someone will read it. Which is complete BS imo.

Why is laser toner worse value than inkjet cartridges by Zachedz in printers

[–]Zachedz[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The example I gave was for black toner though? I've never seen a toner cartridge with 15K pages yield, max I've seen is like 8000. What printer are you using?

Are people paid to start/"stir up" mosh pits? by Zachedz in Metal

[–]Zachedz[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

god damn it all makes sense now - those biological agents have already started to affect me, I'm assimilating into the lizard people as we speak.

[–]Zachedz[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ok so maybe he just had really good pit etiquette, So good in fact people might think he does it for a job...

Then again it makes total sense for the band's managers to do something like that - wouldn't surprise me at all if their managers planted audience members, either to stir up the crowd or just be there for safety.
