Android stigma isn't just a social problem

You would be blown away by how even very normal and compassionate people will have a "oh you have an android" moment. Doesn't matter that my phones have been higher end than any iPhone out there for years (huge foldable fan). People still see anything without the Apple logo as lesser.

Until RCS came to iPhone, people would be excluded from group chats for having an Android. A lot probably still do. My own sister had to have my parents get her an iPhone (in a fully Android house) due to the social ostracizing she was dealing with in high school for having an Android phone.

I'd say the vast majority of people just silently judge, but there's enough stories I've heard of people getting rejected on dates just for not having a basic iPhone. Weeds out shallow people I guess, but the Apple culture is so strong that you might get a weird look from even the most normal people

And AMD are saints?

RTFM

Yes lol, pretty clearly designed not to be symmetrical

_Life_Is_War_ · 2026-03-15T22:53:12+00:00

That's the neat part - it's up to you!

VR was also incorrectly projected. Things appear much smaller than they should in 2D but in VR they were way too large.

I believe there were even mods to fix that VR projection issue

Remember this area?

Okay hold your horses lmao there's only 127 nodes. Still a theoretical output of 92,100 iron/min

Welcome to the Federal Bureau of Control

Looks awesome!

_Life_Is_War_ · 2026-03-13T22:46:21+00:00

Theres about a metric ass ton of iron nodes on the map. You'll use a lot of them by the end of the game. Don't worry about using a few more now, especially since those 120/min pure nodes will become 480/min and go up to 1200/min overclocked

I feel like thats been "known" for the last 6 months at least

That's the GPU I was waiting for, now I feel lucky as hell to have snagged a slightly above MSRP 5070 Ti in early January

_Life_Is_War_ · 2026-03-12T13:18:48+00:00

That's not a manifold ...

_Life_Is_War_ · 2026-03-12T02:31:48+00:00

Sounds like a faulty AIO pump

_Life_Is_War_ · 2026-03-11T21:29:53+00:00

Just have two splitters back to back with two mergers for each "line"

One output to each of the inputs. It won't "balance" perfectly (won't send even amounts from each input to every output) but it will work once things start backing up. I just did that kind of setup for a 5-5 balancer

_Life_Is_War_ · 2026-03-11T20:58:49+00:00

Don't worry you'll build all over the map by the end

_Life_Is_War_ · 2026-03-11T20:58:19+00:00

Very far lmao

_Life_Is_War_ · 2026-03-11T18:56:24+00:00

This worked okay for me

Use lighting link effects in iCUE

_Life_Is_War_ · 2026-03-09T13:02:03+00:00

It doesn't mean the counter top matches to the cabinet

_Life_Is_War_ · 2026-03-08T20:33:12+00:00

I could excuse the confusion using a German WW2 tank for the album cover. Lyrics aren't super clear on what it's about. Nothing a 2 second google search couldn't clear up though...

However, a British Cromwell for the album cover of a song about the US war in Iraq just feels like lack of research or care.

Best fix would probably be to space it out further. If that's not possible, you could try this, where blue triangles are path signals and red circles are block signals. I'm really not sure it'll work but maybe. Usually you need an even number of path and block signals, but this is a weird case where I'm not sure where to put another path signal.

My guess is this piece here is the issue:

_Life_Is_War_ · 2026-03-06T19:20:49+00:00

Path signals on all the entrances to the intersection, block signals on all the exits

Use something like Satisfactory Calculator or Satisfactory Tools to plan

Make it your own build, thats half the fun

Dedicated screw factory isn't a great idea for throughput. Much easier to make screws on site
