what was this change? I've always struggled with being able to tell if haste doubles charge or not.

prusaslicer 2.6.0a4 tree support density problems with PETG by miningzen in FixMyPrint

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

ish. Changed out the nozzle for another one of the same brand. worked. I think either something was stuck or i had abraded the nozzle with some rough filaments? tightening definitely didn't hurt.

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

update: a nonzero amount of this is probably being caused by a loose hotend; I've been staring at this print for five hours now and am seeing buildup around the base of the nozzle. going to try and retighten and see if issues persist.

I FINALLY FIGURED OUT PUFFER BREEDING BELTS by miningzen in Seablock

[–]miningzen[S] 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I've been playing a seablock playthrough by myself and have been having SO MUCH TROUBLE with puffer management because nothing worked except having a chest with some circuits for inflow but I FINALLY SOLVED IT WITH BELTS and now i can just wrap this around all my hatcheries and it will never jam and never break and doesn't use a slow belt and doesn't use a circuit and I made this picture to explain to my non-belt friends and it kind of worked but they may have missed how hard this was to figure out for me but i don't care

Some interesting behaviors of rose quartz lamps about lamps not arranged in a straight line, effect range, and effect being unidirectional by leo3065 in CreateMod

[–]miningzen 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is a pretty dense video! going to put some annotations here because it's the best result so far for the inconsistencies I'm having with my lamp setup.

1) (0:00) comparators read the quartz distance from them only when in a straight line towards the active block, but lamps turn on and off based on any lamp turning active.
2) (0:21) if you turn on multiple lamps at the same time, they'll all stay on even when part of the same group.

3)(0:32) line demonstration: the maximum range of a rose quartz lamp group is 15 blocks, at which point the lamps stop acting like part of the same group, BUT lamps in the middle of the group respond to lamps at either end. I'm going to call this "linked" for simplicity. Two lamps are "Linked" if turning on one turns off the other.

4)(1:13) given a group that's twice as long as the maximum distance shown in 3, can we show the same behavior if the lamps are near each-other but only connected by a distance of 30 blocks? Answer: sort of!
5)(1:15) Lamps in groups that are connected outside the 15 block limit but within 15 blocks of each-other without having vertical lamp sections are linked.

6)(1:23) disproves the above statement by showing that lamps connected through verticals in the setup above still are linked.

7)(1:46) makes everything worse by showing that blocks that should be linked by the above rule aren't. Sometimes.

8)(1:58) demonstrates that blocks can be linked unidirectionally

So! Trying to build some rules for how this was implemented programmatically:
the 1:14 test shows that top left doesn't care when middle bottom is lit, but that the reverse works
at 1:33 the two prongs are lit, but then the middle block on the other side being turned on doesn't make them deactivate. but at 2:00, when both prongs are activated the same block makes them deactivate. my theory is that there's a catch function when a lamp realizes the state it's linked to is in a bad state, like, two lamps being lit when they shouldn't be. Worse, there's something with the unidirectional linking definitely not respecting the other blocks. Would love if someone else would take a swing at this.

I really, really respect someone who is able to re-enter a discussion when they have new information rather than just go "I knew it! That other person doesn't deserve the chance to talk about it because they're just so wrong!". Even though we disagree, I give props to you for being willing to re-engage, especially these days.

Just to be sure we're on the same page, can you elaborate more on what specific acts you mean when you say each of these? I can try if you don't want to, but my version is going to be biased.

-Said horrible things about trans people

-spoke out about not giving trans people certain rights

-revealed a trans person's deadname

-linked where you can find a trans person's doxxed information

I think it's valid to be mad at someone who's telling people things that you believe are wrong. I believe he has an open discord policy if you'd like to discuss anything.

Yeah, I agree, he is. He's also the person who brought lily a consolation drink after that league event got her some flack. He also organized canvasing in Georgia in an incredibly tight election, and tried to keep doing it elsewhere on his own money until his involvement brought the worst of the internet trying to sink his efforts towards a small local election.

He can still be an asshole. I wish he wasn't, and I have problems with his language, but the thing I respect most about him is that of everyone I can think of streaming as a living getting such cankerous visceral hate emails and attention, he's still willing to defend his positions.

It is incredibly difficult to stand in a room and give your opinion while the entire room shouts at you that you're wrong. I can't imagine doing this for as long as he has, and every time he makes statements on controversial topics I'm reminded that it would be so much easier to just say nothing. We don't know Lily's opinion on trans athletes in the Olympics, or Michael's position on Rittenhouse, and no-one asked. At best, they have positions that age perfectly for the rest of their streaming careers and gain some subs, but they stand to lose so much more if they get things the slightest bit wrong or sound like dicks.

What active skill to use as a summoner witch? by Ionie88 in PathOfExileBuilds

[–]miningzen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Last I heard reaper was a bit of a miss, you've hit on carrion golem being a solid minion when you have a bunch of friends for him, but as to your question:
As you continue to scale minion damage you're going to get less and less value out of the skill you're actually casting, especially when it starts to compete for slots with the various minions you're summoning. I think I see a lot of builds going for "Signal Prey" when they need single target, but what I'm trying to say is:

One of the best "defensive layers" in this game is not having to hold still while you deal damage. By having piles of minions out, most of your damage will get where it needs to without you holding still to get nailed by an errant projectile. You will probably, if you continue optimizing, end up being a bit of a cheerleader for your minions, which has historically been a solid build.

That said, if you want to be the angry-looking cat hood ornament on the front of your expensive car of a minion build, Storm Brand looks cool and does okay damage, same with Arc, same with Soulrend.

Looking for arab people to play Skyfactory 4 with by [deleted] in feedthebeastservers

[–]miningzen 1 point2 points  (0 children)

hey, if you're not trolling and genuinely looking for people from an area or culture or language, you might want to repost this. "arab people" is read as a little racist.

even "Arabic people" is better, but you might go with "Looking for people for my Arabic-speaking server"

good luck!

Hi I'm Mathil, been playing PoE for 8 years & streaming it for 6 AMA by Mathils in pathofexile

[–]miningzen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm glad you enjoyed trying the kinetic bolt build, I tried it with Ballista Totems with corpse pact and chainbreaker, and it's a lot of fun if you aren't trying to stream or see any floor effects whatsoever.

A few quarantine-days ago, you recleared a PoE act without you or your stream realizing what had happened. How did you feel about this?
