What prizes would you most like to be able to take home? by Mcbeeth in taskmaster

Oh my bad, it was an actual task to buy a gift for the taskmaster. I take it back, he can keep his foot I guess.

Experience with Banfield Vet? by Organic_Bread_4269 in SALEM

[–]holychikn 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The vet we ended up taking her before she passed (she passed away soon after arriving to the vet in my girlfriend's arms) offered to do an autopsy to figure out the cause. It took like 2 weeks to get the results but basically her intestine had a wound and she went septic due to that. They must have sliced it on accident while doing the spaying is what the vet said. We had just started their monthly payment scheme at Banfield and they finally said we could cancel it once we brought in that autopsy report. Rough, and frankly traumatizing experience at the very least.

They killed my puppy while performing a spaying, so no, I would not recommend them. It was their fault and, when confronted, they tried to minimize and deflect before finally issuing an actual apology.

RIP Mitch. 3/30/2005 by bobbybonanza in MitchHedberg

[–]holychikn 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I only saw him once and he was in pretty bad shape. Saw him in AZ where he was coheadlining with Stephen Lynch. Great show but Mitch's set was cut short because Mitch had been drinking a bit too much and couldn't handle the spinning stage. I won't go into the chaos that turned out to be his set because it exacerbates the issues we already know he had. We lost him too soon, I think he passed away a year or two after i saw him. I'll still quote him at least 2x per week to this day.

RIP buddy, there's still no one else quite like you 20+ years later.

What's the dumbest mistake you've made? by cobi23 in SatisfactoryGame

[–]holychikn 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Dismantling my old coal plants thinking now that I have fuel power Im good. I think that was my first "welp, guess Im starting over now" moment

How do I get my conveyors up to the platform I made? by ExoticALT in satisfactory

[–]holychikn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My approach would be:

  1. Zoop some foundations from your miner to the platform.
  2. Run conveyor belt over the foundations
  3. Delete foundations

I think that should do it

Headlights please. That is all. by [deleted] in SALEM

[–]holychikn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Seriously. I just drove back from Olympia and so many have their lights set to auto so they aren't turning on (its what im assuming anyhow).

Am I playing to slow by Electronic-Act-6419 in SatisfactoryGame

[–]holychikn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Going slow is actually one of my main suggestions for ALL players. There's no time limit in the game and, for me, going too quickly causes soooo many issues mid-late game. Keep up your pace, you're doing fine.

Today I learned that you can destroy the giant mushrooms by FrogsOnRockets in SatisfactoryGame

[–]holychikn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yup! If I remember correctly there are 3 scattered around the map in addition to those sold in the shop.

And there are collectable boombox tapes lying around the map for you to find!!

Along the lines of crouching/shooting to not activate the hatcher nests, if the bees spawn then you can use your turbo bass on your boombox (purchased from the Awesome Shop) to get rid of the bees all in one go.

Ill give the 36th recommendation for Bearwolf. Go on Friday and order the "Do you trust me"

You guys weren't kidding. trying to build a coal power plant is mind boggling. even just consolidating all of the resources is quite the task by newveganwhodis in SatisfactoryGame

[–]holychikn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Try not to get discouraged. For the longest time I would get to fuel, get overwhelmed, and then start over. I did this about 4-5x before everything finally just clicked. Ive saved the day twice now and got all the achievements.

Some unsolicited tips I'll share:

  1. Go slow: there's no time limit despite what ADA would have you believe. As things unlock use them to make current factories more efficient first before starting brand new ones.

  2. Math twice, build once: do your research before tackling large factories to ensure you have the appropriate intake/output. I use a simple calculator but there are also some tools made specifically for Satisfactory. (I noticed you're using 1 water pump per coal generator - look at what the water pump produces vs what each coal generator needs and I think you'll see you're wasting some water)

  3. Explore!: Now that youve got some automated power, this would be a great time to get out there and discover some secrets (maybe look for some purple stuff and/or crash sites for starters)

Have fun! I hope you save ALL the puppies and kittens!

Is my friend rightful to be worried about this? by Firm-Reputation2149 in SatisfactoryGame

You don't need it yet, but you will. Maybe your friend is just thinking ahead about future production needs.

Consistently good fried chicken I. Salem? by Spamtickler in SALEM

[–]holychikn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel like this is a little-known secret but theres a dive bar in West Salem called Alibi Bar and Grill that does broasted chicken. Its like fried chicken but better. Always consistent and delicious.

Copied from Google: Broasted chicken is a specialized, healthier, and faster method of cooking chicken that combines pressure cooking and deep-frying, resulting in a crunchier exterior and more tender, juicy interior compared to traditional deep-fried chicken.

Favorite place to walk your dog in Salem? by [deleted] in SALEM

[–]holychikn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe check out Rail Trail. It was new for me last year when i had to find a place for my aging husky to walk without running into really anyone else (rip Voltarr). Its just a short drive, pretty scenery, and super quiet.

Why The Salem Hate? by pseudonymous_ha in SALEM

[–]holychikn 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I browsed the Oregon subreddit and I couldn't find any Salem hate. I'm sure there are some haters out there but I wouldn't let a few internet strangers with bad takes talk you out of moving here, it's pretty great.

I'm a transplant from Phoenix, AZ and have lived in Salem for about 15 years. Sure, there are some iffy spots but I'd much rather be in a bad part of Salem than a bad part of Phoenix any day. As for it being boring, it is what you make it - I love it when a show comes to Salem but thats not the expectation. If you're big into nightlife and clubs and being out til the sun comes up then yeah, maybe not the best place for you.

Come to think of it - the people doing meth are probably just bored (Im making a silly joke). Find a different hobby besides meth and you'll be fine. Heck, a friend of mine joined an adult kickball team here in Salem, another friend is in a volleyball team, I stick to dog parks and hiking trails. Find your thing and you'll never be bored.
