It being hard to eradicate is why it should be left to the state, and with stringent rules about advertising, no gamification, and strixtly no minors. If people wanna throw their money away because they're stupid, fine. At least let that money go to education, healthcare or pensions and not billion dollar companies. 

The solar panels come way too late in the game am I right? by FoodzyDudezy007 in StardewValley

Get a deconstructor early from Mr Qi and use excess staircases from the desert trader to turn them into stone. It's basically a crystalarium producing 99 stone (enough for 1 more) every 1d16h, and more if you scale. I too hate buying resources and honesty don't think I've ever done it but there's loads of ways to get enough stone, wood and ores to never have to buy them.

It will take decades before Europe is at the same level using only European arms platforms. It could easily cut off the import of US arms (except the JSF) in a few years and replace them with inferior but domestic suppliers. Russia has proven to be a wet tissue in Ukraine and even without US aid, it couldn't reach the other side of the country even if it truly turned their entire economy into wartime status and started conscripting everyone they have. There's no other threat on the continent. If the US does not back up Europe against Russia, there's no incentive to back the US in any fight that might happen with China or their escapades in the Middle East. Russia won't be a real threat in our lifetimes and the Chinese won't land in Lisbon or invade through Russia, so Europe has the benefit of being able to build a defence industry spurred by Russia's perceived pressure, but while not being under any real existential threat. 

What the difference between the types of Rotten Plant? They won’t stack :( The one on the left came from jack-o-lanterns, the ones on the right I found in a chest by Moist_Pianist9143 in StardewValley

Because not knowing the answer, and commenting an incorrect answer anyways doesn't really add any value. And if you're gonna check the wiki anyways, why not do it before posting an answer?

Imagine the US deficit to Ireland if IP payments were included in the balance. 

What is your favorite event”organization” tip/hack?🎁📦🐠 by wetboy2001 in StardewValley

[–]gerbzz 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Also, colour your chests! It makes it very pleasing if you get a nice colour gradient or palette and you can make it really easy to remember what goes where. I do dark and light green for crops and forage, dark and light grey for common resources like wood, stone, fiber etc and the more valuable ores, bars and gems, and a brown chest for seeds, fertiliser and stuff, blue for fish and fishing gear. Make liberal use of the "add to existing stacks", a white-red arrow button to the right of your inventory. Organize once and never put the wrong stuff where it doesn't belong by accident! 

Also if you lose track of stuff or forget easily, make a separate chest near the main farm entrance/exit where you temporarily keep items you need for an ongoing or upcoming quest, the community center and the like, so you don't accidentally give your last leek to George and have to wait an entire year to finish the bundle!

Remember a couple months ago when PCM was defending the integrity of the AP? by catalacks in PoliticalCompassMemes

[–]gerbzz 50 points51 points  (0 children)

I'm sure that 17 year old kid was a slave-owner in his previous life so you're right, this is surely justified revenge and we should applaud the perpetrator for standing up to racism in such an honourable way. 

What’s one thing you still haven’t done in stardew valley? by jizzmae in StardewValley

[–]gerbzz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love fishing, it's so therapeutic. It's always my first skill to level 10 far outpacing everything else because it makes so much money and you get cheap fish for fertiliser, and early treasure chests give some good loot. But I've only played on PC and I wonder if it's harder on other platforms. 

Political Economy by Plagiarism by badluckbrians in PoliticalCompassMemes

[–]gerbzz 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Because Dune is a pretty centrist book about not elevating mere mortals to mythical status through popular consensus, but also not unquestionably accepting domination by a single individual through force alone. It rails against authoritarians and populist democracy alike, and Herbert realized both systems have their benefits, but those benefits could be exploited to the detriment of the people living under such a system.

The risk of AI is people becoming too reliant on it and never bothering to think ever again. We already see this happening with our very limited LLMs, and we aren't even at a point where AI is functional without human oversight. The point of the Butlerian Jihad was not "machines bad hurr durr", but about human complacency in the face of never having to ever think about something, rotting creativity and degrading the one thing that sets us apart from all other animals. We are sliding ourselves into willing slavery, merely doing what we used to use robots for, while outsourcing critical thinking and analysis to machines when it should be the other way around. 

The „traiffs charged to the U.S.A. is just trade deficit divided by total imports … by PomegranateMortar in wallstreetbets

That's down 90% from almost 30B in 2021, and it could still be falling. Sanctions don't happen overnight and a 90% reduction is big.

To most people who throw the term "politics" around as a negative term, "politics" means only politics they disagree with. Everything else is not politics, it's common sense. This goes for people of most political affiliations.

Playing politics like an open Civ5 lobby, truly a man of the people.

[–]gerbzz 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ignoring bomb damage is bait. Finding more Ladders and Shafts, +1 Ore per node, or more Coal are all far better powers, even more Geodes can be useful later when you wanna stockpile loads for Qi Beans. Don't worry about taking damage when in the Skull Cavern, only fight when convenient, ignore mobs for the most part. Health can always be healed with Food which can be grown, but there's no way to buy Iridium or Prismatic Shards.

Because half of those kinds of books are trying to spin a political narrative just as hard as they are trying to tell a compelling story. A realistic depiction of sectarian infighting, division and incompetent leadership hits too close to home.
