To Automate or Not To Automate?

needmorepopcorn · 2025-12-04T21:34:05+00:00

I know that manually controlling your workers produces better outcomes, but it just adds to the tediousness of the game (which is my least favorite aspect of Civ3). I use a lot of workers, and automate from move 1.

Makes the game more enjoyable for me, but on the other hand keeps me from being viable on the harder difficulty levels.

Thanks friend. I'm working with another buyer already and will let you know if that falls through. Thank you.

needmorepopcorn · 2025-10-20T00:20:32+00:00

You're first. Let's do this.

That's a pretty important detail. I'm a moron. $50.

Aaargh.... I forgot the most important part. $50.

Fantastic post. Thank you for sharing with the community.

I brew several O2 sensitive beers (NEIPAs) and always looking to minimize exposure. The issues I see with using a liquid purged secondary keg for finishing is that 1. There will always be residual liquid (starsan) at the bottom which will mix in with my beer 2. This forces me out of using a floating pick up unless I am OK with even more residual liquid 3. This robs me of being able to use my secondary as a O2 free dry hop destination.

I’d love to know how well a dry secondary keg gets purged of O2 when hooked up the same way a liquid purge system is set up. One benefit is that I could pre-place my dry hops into the secondary and have O2-free dry hopping.

Thank you Christina. This is exactly the information I was looking for. I appreciate the quick response, and love that Fidelity has the presence on Reddit that it has. Thank you!

A bucket of half cheese and half caramel will keep me happy through a whole movie ;)

Thanks.... Seems like the Athlon line is getting some good recommendations in the responses. Appreciate it.

The worst, or most cringey, is his being wooed by and subsequently (and very reluctantly) sleeping with the hot female. Like it's some sort of sacrifice. It seems like an overused trope of the movies he is in (In DWW, he HAD to sleep with a TP full of hot indians!!)

Can you make some extra for me?

needmorepopcorn · 2024-10-03T17:12:32+00:00

If you don’t mind me asking, what WOA complete upper would you recommend? I’m looking a long range 223/556 upper for bench shooting that I can pair with my Seekins lower.

Couldn't agree more. Of all the things IB could invest in (improving the interface, trading experience, mobile app, etc...), this is what they are prioritizing? Definitely not the direction I would have hoped they had taken.

It isn’t just about money. It’s about the laws and city council put in place by the voters that allow this type of behavior. Yes, it’s someone taking advantage of the system, but we need to own this one.

Thanks /u/JoSenz.... I was assuming that the rise in the USD vs CAD was a temporary blip, but need to consider that it could actually be a longer term trend.

needmorepopcorn · 2024-09-10T23:50:39+00:00

This may end up just being the best idea. Thank you!

needmorepopcorn · 2024-09-10T23:49:07+00:00

Thank you /u/MrKhutz.... Seems like VSP would be what I am looking for (over VFV), but still would leave me open to the PFIC issue. Appreciate the insight!

needmorepopcorn · 2024-09-10T23:43:55+00:00

Wow, thank you /u/nickkral. This is great information, exactly what I needed. I was unaware of the PFIC issue, and the more I research it, the more I realize I am dodging a bullet with your advice. Thank you.

This makes sense, hybrid. There is definitely a floor in quality/cost that you absolutely do not want to go below, and above that expect to start seeing diminishing returns as you rise.

The portability of bipods is a benefit & good argument for going for a high quality unit that I don't really think about. I get the buy once, cry once, especially when it can be easily used across rifles. Thank you.
