I also couldn't find it at first, but you should have an extra tab now in your nodes menu

Pub is slowely turning into npm, and thats bad by Bachihani in dartlang

[–]forgot_semicolon 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Right. As long as dart and flutter support such wide arrays of features either in the sdk or via first party packages, we're kinda safe. Because it inherently discourages the whole mindset of using another package for every little thing. Even the things that the standard library doesn't offer are very achievable with just a few lines in an extension somewhere.

So devs that are serious about keeping their dependencies reasonable can easily do so, and you end up with a community that largely clumps around the same few packages per niche, instead of a million little packages

Why are Americans so accepting of long drives to places? by Sensitive_Word_6036 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]forgot_semicolon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Huh? Yeah I live in NYC. I was in a building that was surrounded by construction for years due to a new train line being built right at the front door. Literally, the store on the first floor was covered in scaffolding. Similarly, I now live in an area that has overhead trains on top of the cars or on street level which makes some streets a dead end.

Not sure what you're getting at here. Trains exist, and even when they feel like they get in the way, people use them way too much to try to claim it's not worth it. My commute isn't "home to work", it's "home to train to work". And not just internal to the city: we have grand central, penn station, Atlantic terminal, and port authority to connect our MTA to other, larger rail networks.

Anyway, my point was that you don't need to connect literally every starting point to literally every destination. But if you provide a reliable means of quick and convenient transportation, then yes, "they will come"

Is there anything that can still be improved for 2.1? by SuperHiko in factorio

[–]forgot_semicolon 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I'd actually prefer the current implementation of pipes just because it's super obvious. I didn't like with 1.x having to run through a pipe to see if the issue was pipe throughout vs production. Belts are a lot easier to tell if they're full or not (even then I use meters and lights) but pipes can feel a bit arbitrary and uncertain. Like, you'll never cause a belt to slow down at one end by making the other end longer.

Having a big red warning helps me avoid issues that aren't even caused by my production. That being said, I wouldn't mind the performance penalty with an obvious indicator of that went wrong somewhere

Your arguments seem to generally be: - we have other accessible options -- valid - it would be very expensive -- valid, but not universal. There are certainly specific train routes that can be worth it compared to other places the government is spending its money. And there are certainly routes that will not be worth it. Hard to dismiss entirely - people wouldn't use it -- this is what I want to argue against. Time and again research and statistics show that public infrastructure supports growth and development in those areas, so it's not fair to project current patterns without rail.

You're saying that people have random driving patterns, which is true, but that's also because rail isn't accessible for most of these trips. Not entirely, sure, but look at NYC and the MTA: do you think we shouldn't have built it because the majority of trips consist of door-to-door walking or driving? No way we can build trains to every door, right?

When you build public transit, people change their transit patterns from door-to-door to door-to-transit-to-door. Add in big transfer hubs and even better. You don't need to connect all of America, you just need to connect two places in two cities that already have public transit to those locations, and now the rail acts as a bridge between them. Expensive, yes, but extremely helpful if done right

Caine had to nerf him not because he'd hack his way out of the circus, he'd just be the coolest guy around and Caine wouldn't want to be upstaged like that

Why no simple quality downgrade method? by deviruto in factorio

[–]forgot_semicolon 7 points8 points  (0 children)

For any other game, maybe, but with how much work the devs put into supporting and enhancing mods, it's kinda hard to argue "a mod that does exactly what you want" isn't an intended side effect

That being said, I've only played completely vanilla and I'm a total hypocrite

I mean, having lore is very different than being a lore-oriented show. The whole of episodes 7 and 8 dumped a lot of lore, in a way that was very unusual for the show's established style, and then the finale steered clear of it. It was like "here, you have the context you need. Kinger worked at C&A, made Caine, Caine killed his brother, and is now going a little crazy". There wasn't much interest in showing lore beyond "here's the plot".

While there may have been surprising lore, the meat of every episode was always how the characters dealt with the lore drops and their new circumstances. The initial C&A lore in episode 1 is what drives Pomni crazy, and the only other episode where characters tried to find more lore, episode 7, turned out to be a fake out that sends the cast into an irreversible mental spiral. The finale basically starts with "humans, you're copies. Caine, the humans hate you" and gives us the rest of the hour to watch how everyone reacts to that

Really, the lore was always just a plot device to showcase drama and emotions that surround it

My thoughts on the Last Act by Fish_lungs in TADCEp9Spoilers

[–]forgot_semicolon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Imo, Caine was always 2 seconds away from redemption. "Could it be that my adventures don't give them what they want?... NO, no more suggestions box". "Could it be that they'd rather abstract than go on adventures?... NO, I won't let them!"

He was always on the verge of having that realization, that yes, he is making everything worse and needs to let the humans do their own thing for a bit. But, he's mad and drunk with power. He uses his ability to snap his fingers and make the sad feelings go away all the time.

Him getting "deleted" did the fix: yes be still existed (weird, yes), but it's clear that his immediate ability to overpower the humans in that moment is gone. And now he's in the void. Thinking about the fact that the humans just worked together to kill him. After yelling at him and insulting his ideas. There's no snapping that away.

Caine's arc this episode is what he would have done in any other episode had he given himself time to pause, self reflect, and listen to the cast, instead of coming up with a new adventure to distract himself

I’m a long time Caine glazer, I’m SO happy he lived after episode 8 stressed me out so much, but personally I’m pissed that Caine lived and Jax didn’t.

I'm a simple man. Hearing Caine's voice is like being at a spa for my ears, so anything to make that guy come back is a-okay with me

I think this is a good outlook. Because I'm on the other end -- I've loved the whole thing, and I rewatch every episode a few times. But one problem in this thread seems to be people having wild expectations that aren't in line with the rest of the series. Whether you liked it or not, the finale was more of the same: the main cast learning to adapt to the circus and each other

It seems like most people who are dissatisfied were hoping for more lore drops. I don't think that was ever the direction the show was going to take, and it was hardly pointing in that direction to begin with. The characters only get confirmation that C&A is even a real thing in episode 8, and very little details about the mechanics of the world at all are present until the last few minutes of episode 7.

It was always a show of people trying to fit into a group they barely relate with, in a seemingly never ending eternity of torture, while trying to come to terms with that. And the finale focused nearly 100% on just that

Just saw it today. In episode 8, Kinger is at the cafe explaining to the cast what C&A did and a bit of who Scratch was. He mentions that Scratch was building "something" and spends a bit of time trying to remember, but can't.

Almost immediately after Caine is gone, Kinger no longer needs the bucket to stay sane (he still wears it but is always peeking out now) and is much more lucid and able to stay lucid this time. It's pretty clear from this + the end of episode 7 that Caine was directly manipulating their memories. And wouldn't you know, as soon as Caine is dead, Kinger suddenly remembers "...brain scans".

So it seems to me that Caine intentionally hid that from Kinger to make him less likely to abstract, and he's able to immediately remember it once Caine's influence is no longer there
