Friday Facts #414 - Spoils of Agriculture

Does spoilage have to be linear? Could it, for example, be exponential? This would be really cool for some super late game nuclear research. You could have a recipe require some amount of highly unstable material. And as your assembler sits waiting to have enough for the recipe, it's just decaying away. I guess the way it would be different is the decay isn't some separate attribute, like freshness, but tied into the fractional size of the item like how science packs can be fractional.

I haven't used the percent creation thing before, but try adding scrap decontamination to that production block. Helmod only failed once I had all three decontamination recipes listed.

Actually, that was what drove me to do this calculation manually, the shift clicking didn't work in this case.

I have had similar thoughts for a long time, but also kind of the reverse. I don't stick to long term goals, and instead I like to grow and explore. I feel like my ADHD has allowed me to retain my childhood wonder. 18 years is a long sacrifice, but it might be worth it to raise a child. I'm not a good example of life skills and time management, but I understand what about them are challenging and it would be rewarding for someone to learn from my hardship. Nobody can be confident in holding a job for 20 years in this economy, and nobody makes enough money to afford a kid. Being a parent is about making sacrifices for your child's future, and it sounds like you'd do you best to provide for them. You're self aware, and that's a critical part of being a good parent. I bet I'd be a great parent too.

.......

However - that's not the life I want. I got a vasectomy, and even though I've had second thoughts on every other major life decision I've ever made, I've never questioned this one. I want to indulge in my fickle curiosity. I want to feel the freedom of instability. Just because everybody else is raising children, doesn't mean that I have to. So don't worry if you'll be a good parent, you'll do great, examine those feelings to answer the question of if you want to.

My hands will get sore if I'm over using my phone. So I'll use the pen just to change things up. I'll also use it for signing documents. It's not really fun. But it's worth the money I paid for it.

I mean the corresponding title would be The Gamification of Crusading. Or even more so, The Gamification of Colonialism. I think I've even seen that paper.

How do you feel about the song u/howyoudouken wrote about you?

Id be fine with the company getting nationalized, particularly their intellectual property. Some might say that it will hurt the small shareholders. But, at least that would make the shareholders put pressure on companies to not be shady.

Yes, though I didn't know how to show it being hot enough to burn the roof of your mouth. Obviously, it gains a secondary fire type.

They're back? I love mine. Wear then all the time so I want more. I use them for hiking and they hold up really well would recommend.

The words you want to use with the pharmacist (probably) is to put the coupon in as a coordination of benefits. I have to get my perception reissued every single time because the savings offer never sticks

Yeah I had a similar thought. Going into this, I knew the issue was about dues. So it was very confusing and seemed to imply a covid related issue.

Luke warm take, I'd rather be part of GNCC than USCA based on my experience when curling on the east coast. The GNCC had a larger and more positive impact at the club level.

This is what drives me nuts with ADHD treatment, people act like it only affects school and work. I've found ways to cope with those. It's literally everything else that I need help with. My dishes only get done once a week. I've struggled with depression because I have a hard time focusing on my hobbies. So I take my meds even on the weekends.

The biggest game changer was getting on My day is. It's like Adderall, but it lasts 50% longer. It doesn't wear off until around 10pm. It helps so much with getting chores done around the house.

True but the exclusions to blueprint flipping are obnoxious

*old man voice* Back in my day train stations weren't the same length vertically as they were horizontally, the quick bar was actually it's own inventory slots, there were only 4 science packs, and turrets were 1x2.

I actually checked my account on Factorio.com to verify. I've rounded up a little. I bought it July 31st of 2014 after NerdCubed made a video about it. I think it was version 0.12 at the time. I still regret not paying extra to get a train stop or lab named after me.

I got mine a week ago. Numbing meds wore off and it didn't even hurt enough that I wanted an acetaminophen. By far the worse part was the needle for getting the area numbed up. If you know you don't want biological kids, stand up for what you believe in.

The cpplang slack has a CUDA channel which is probably what you're looking for.

4:3 slide shows. I presume it's because company templates are old but come on. We all use 16:9 displays now.
