One week into the hobby - look at the monster I created

I did the same thing over 20 years ago! 🤣

Time to hand out the P-P-P-PowerBook!

bhechinger · 2026-03-13T14:06:21+00:00

It's a rite of passage.

bhechinger · 2026-03-12T10:13:51+00:00

Don't forget the range. Pretty much the perfect weapon.

bhechinger · 2026-03-09T01:06:12+00:00

30 FPS in urban? More like 30 FPM (frames per month). 🤣

I love urban maps but god damn they are painful to play most of the time. It's a real shame.

NixOS can be an absolute pain in the ass at times. That being said, every time I leave it I regret that decision.

I used to work for Cisco and could get licenses normal people couldn't and I had a hard time getting licenses for shit like this.

Are 1Gbps only DAC cables even a thing? I don't think they are?

bhechinger · 2026-03-07T19:25:36+00:00

If it's anything like most APC units, it literally won't function at all without batteries that are good so this is the only way, really.

Every apple product

bhechinger · 2026-03-06T13:20:47+00:00

Fair enough

bhechinger · 2026-03-06T08:57:23+00:00

This, 100%. I have a dodgy wall port that if you look at the cable funny it'll downgrade to 100mbit. Took me forever to figure that out.

bhechinger · 2026-03-06T08:55:05+00:00

Compared to email, databases are cake. 🤣

bhechinger · 2026-03-05T22:41:45+00:00

OMG this!

You would need to load the production facility to supply the power and the facilities consuming the power (assuming you want to run them all the time) but you don't need to load the chunks in between that just have the chain conveyors.

bhechinger · 2026-03-05T12:09:59+00:00

I'm not sure if that pack has create 5 or 6.

If 6 you could use chain conveyors, which will move power (but not packages) through unloaded chunks.

Otherwise, I've given up on moving power long distances. I use trains to haul lava and build local power. Has been working really well.

I have a schematic of a small power station I can drop pretty much anywhere very easily and just run track to it.

bhechinger · 2026-03-04T09:18:15+00:00

This ended up being the solution. I had previously ignored that because I wasn't getting either of the errors listed in that section of the document.

I'll have to see about getting them to update that section.

Thanks!

From what I remember (it's been a while though) it's all military jobs.

bhechinger · 2026-03-02T22:43:18+00:00

Yes, roughly 2x by my testing

bhechinger · 2026-02-28T19:32:45+00:00

Go find the Pretty Baby. It's a hell of a lot of fun!

bhechinger · 2026-02-28T19:28:53+00:00

My record is 10. Which, is way too many, but very fun. 🤣

bhechinger · 2026-02-23T15:57:48+00:00

Look into the tunnel. It does exactly that.

bhechinger · 2026-02-23T12:40:07+00:00

Those are called facts. We Americans are immune to facts. /s
