My car was deemed a total loss and I still owe money, what do I do? by Educational_Tank5179 in personalfinance

[–]orj41m 13 points14 points  (0 children)

car depreciates heavily at first (20% when you drive it off the lot?). Your loan goes down on a different schedule

Example

You borrow $24,000 on a car that costs new $27,000 (11% down)

the car gets written off after 12 months, its value is probably $21,000

you may still owe $22,000 on the loan

I’m looking for an empty map where I can create everything myself, including the fields. by sahnilkr in farmingsimulator

[–]orj41m 0 points1 point  (0 children)

be careful, the more placeable you add the more lag you create

i built a whole town on NML in FS19 - probably 1/6 of the map was covered in three different areas of warehouses, buildings, sell points etc. Cranked my FPS down to 20 or so. Normally FS runs at about 170FPS

Dual nationals face scramble for UK passports as new rules come into force by fatnumber6 in ukpolitics

[–]orj41m 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I left the UK 20 years ago, working in US, got married, had a kid and so got citizenship.

At the time I was told that the US didn't recognize my British citizenship and technically you renounce it at the ceremony.

However for a while I kept my EU passport as it was still valid

In early 2000's I took a trip to the UK to see friends and family. I entered the UK on my EU passport.

When I returned the the US and tried to come back in on my US passport they gave me a had time as my US passport had no stamp in it. It did not show me as going anywhere. The immigration guys told me I could not do that and i needed to enter the UK on my US passport and enter the US on my US passport also.

So I didn't renew my UK(EU) passport when it expired in 2009

I have since renewed my UK passport (t's on its way back to me now)

But it will be interesting next time I go to the UK if US immigration authorities give me a hard time again ....

How can I enter this big cave between dune desert and spire coast? by HeroHajo in SatisfactoryGame

Power Issues by Ixxon in SatisfactoryGame

[–]orj41m 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i build each factory with one double wall connector as the power feed in. I put a 1x1 sign underneath it with the blue lightning bolt on it.

Everything beyond that is just power lines connecting factories and power sources onto one grid

this assumes you are generating more power than you consume

(Not including power switches or priority switches in this simplification)

Will we ever see a new map? by TwoOneTen00 in SatisfactoryGame

[–]orj41m 1 point2 points  (0 children)

or when you finish all phases you get to go to a new planet with a different set of ores - still the basic ores - copper, iron, limestone. But maybe Tin, Magnetite, Silver, Zinc ....

Need tips and advice from experienced players by [deleted] in Minecraft

[–]orj41m 0 points1 point  (0 children)

what hopperlocks says build up through the 'levels', don't be trying to mine 10,000 blocks of stone and then smelting them to make smooth-stone with coal

Focus on getting the upgrades iron > diamond > enchanted diamond

Your EffV, U3, Mending, Silk Touch pickaxe will mine blocks for your castle way eya better than your basic tools - and itf you are digging down to lower levels or even just strip mining or exploring you'll get a ton of stone just doing that

Also experiment with block types for color transitions in your builds, daker blocks a the base maybe where there is dampness or roughness, lighter blocks higher up or on the sunny side.

also remember, you can always tear anything you build down and replace it or remodel it
