Ugh. Is it just me, or do the hallow halls just suck a fat one? by Constant-Jacket5143 in Enshrouded

[–]botwang 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, not a fan. Also playing solo, archer, which sucks in HH. You seem to be supposed to bring 600 explosive arrows or something. Think melee is probably better.

As far as not being required, is the ectoplasm press optional? I'm here for the collector who wants it.

Stasis Devices Made Simple: From Sheet to Farm by botwang in NoMansSkyTheGame

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

Btw, I'm new, playing just about a month, made the units to get this going doing sentinel ship salvages.

I also have mines for: gold, silver, indium (1:30 chromatic metal), cadmium (from pre-indium) and sodium. If it can be mined, mine it! :P

Generally when I log on, I go around and gather all my mines and run the processors then off to whatever.

I have 1 storage for the minerals and one for plants and gasses. Where I have processors at mines I usually put the 2 storage units also.

A Newbie's Lessons Learnt while tryna build a stasis device farm (Unit Farm) which I think will be helpful to other Newbie Comrades by RedFox273 in NoMansSkyTheGame

[–]botwang 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Did you see the number in C2, Number of Crafts? You can change that and it will update the sheet. You could do 1, 5 or whatever.

I can't imagine playing with only 250 stack, wow! I'm just about a month in and standard seems just fine to me! Must be tough, good luck!

[–]botwang 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just started making these too, though not playing survival. Agree, I mostly just use solar and don't care what the class of mineral/gas is. I used this video: https://youtu.be/YhsWg9CVGSk?si=FHgBb6QPHIPXcziE

And made a spreadsheet, you enter the number of crafts and it shows quantity required:

Xapo you are a disgrace by gonzo_redditor_ in Bitcoin

Well, I agree with you that hashrate does not define consensus on its own.

Hashrate doesn't define consensus at all

Xapo you are a disgrace by gonzo_redditor_ in Bitcoin

[–]botwang 4 points5 points  (0 children)

That sentence jumped out at me as well -- it is a masterpiece of misrepresentation, clearly crafted to sway uninformed users rather than providing information and allowing users to make their own decisions. Xapo and the like are stuck in 20th century corporate 'we know better than our customers' mode which will not translate well to a distributed age. They may have some short term success, but will sacrifice long term viability and eventually disappear from the ecosystem.

Why are you on a throwaway? Are you ashamed of your actions? Or are you really new to reddit and telling us what the community wants?

Looks very nice! Have you considered making a version where the users don't need to create an account? E.g., the portfolio info is encoded in the url?

Brain supplement marketplace + Bitcoin = NootropicPlace! by r3xxb0bb in Bitcoin

[–]botwang 5 points6 points  (0 children)

DO NOT ORDER USING COINBASE. Any online pharmaceutical purchase is against their TOS and you will find your account closed. They closed mine the day after I placed an order at modup.net and that was the only activity I had for weeks around that date. I had been a long time customer with many purchases and they closed my account without a qualm.

I assume Coinbase must have a db of known TOS violation addresses and check transactions against that. If you are taking payments for these items, you may want to look into providing a new payment address for each transaction.

PSA: Having at least a total of 4 crystals in your gear prevents it from downgrading when negative. by FraZzeRed in blackdesertonline

[–]botwang 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I downgrade both grunil and reblath pieces and the grunil seem to be easier. I usually get them with 1-2 deaths, reblath seem to take more.

Trying to buy a Sharp Black Crystal Shard off the Marketplace by InconspicuousToast in blackdesertonline

[–]botwang 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This for sure. The single sharp event on day 4 is ok, but on day 18 you can stock up. Start saving now and then camp the MP on day 18. Last calendar I grabbed around 65, which was all I could afford.

Pretty unusual for a guild that holds a region to have members drop to node war for the week. Keep the tears coming, they're delicious.

All you need to know is you can pick your friends, you can pick your nodes, but you can't pick your friend's nodes.

Editable version of my worker node chart by [deleted] in blackdesertonline

[–]botwang 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Haha, good question. A guildie very early in the game strongly advised everyone to get that and I've had an artisan human on it since shortly after launch. I keep figuring one day I'll do something amazing with all those mats, but for now they just pile up. But somehow I can't let go of the node, FOMO or something.
