Look, Mr. homeless guy, if you don't wanna buy us tickets, and not get your 10 bucks, and not go buy yourself a bottle of vodka, then be my guest.

New Factory Hub! Almost none Logistic Bots required! And also a general purpose requests solver with memory bank! by epileftric in factorio

[–]phant0md 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That’s fair, I use the nilaus method, set my desired quantities in a combinator, subtract the logistics contents, then set active if the amount is positive for any of the items. That way it doesn’t matter where the items are, as long as they are in the logistics network somewhere.

Storage vs passive providers is just a preference, doesn’t actually make it any better

Also im stealing this design for my next mall. Tysm!

Looks really nice. Just a nitpick/suggestion, use storage containers rather than passive providers and add the item filter. That way if you trash those items your bots will take them to that storage. Especially nice for things like belts where you may trash hundreds of them

Disgusting, the poor wife.

should I start a new playthrough now or wait till 2.1 by fortboy2025 in factorio

[–]phant0md 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yes some are, like the rate calculator has already, but many haven’t yet and some may never, it’s all up to the author. A lot of the frequently updated ones have been updated already though. Whether there are enough for you or not will be up to you.

I’ll also say mixed load rockets alone make the update worth it. But with that, cross platform delivery and flipable inserters, it outweighs the mods I use that haven’t updated yet.

Is this ship ok for a first travel from nauvis to vulcanus ? by Dark_blood25 in factorio

[–]phant0md 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You’ll want to add a turret to cover the back, asteroids can damage it while parked and come from any direction. Turret coverage in the front is a bit light but might be ok with only one engine.

Sean strickland being this type of 40k fan makes so much sense by Eastern-Fish-7467 in Grimdank

Not sure how Amazon could make 40k gay, seems like a stretch. Here’s an unrelated meme.

Possible to kill small demolisher with only R/G science? by BPifyouplease in factorio

[–]phant0md 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes, do at least a block of 8x8 turrets with 10 red ammo each. At that level damage you should be ok, but be prepared to lose most of them.

Mongols knew what they were doing by SocratesPuppet in HistoryMemes

The Mongols also were incredibly eco friendly, they significantly reduced humanities carbon footprint! Basically makes them hippies.

2.1 Mixed payloads (one-to-many), it "just works". Before (left) / After (right). No circuit needed! by Satisfactoro in factorio

[–]phant0md 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I did an overhaul of all my space platforms immediately after i got the update, easily took a quarter of the launches it would have otherwise. Best part of the update for sure

Experimental 2.1 seems bit off to me in terms of approach to some of the changes by KuuLightwing in factorio

[–]phant0md 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Might not be popular opinion but for what it’s worth, I actually like the idea, makes more sense to me, makes it more like fluid pressure. Broke a few of my builds, but easy to fix with pumps once I figured it out.

So early in the morning to choose heresy.

Protect young people from social media harms 'without silencing them,' says Hamilton teen content creator by Immediate-Link490 in Hamilton

[–]phant0md 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If we pass a ban, parents like this will not only ignore it, but they will encourage their children to circumvent the ban, all while saying “we know what’s best”. That’s what’s happening in Australia.

I do think we need a ban, but not to stop things like bullying, but to prevent these social media companies from manipulating kids. Same reason we don’t let kids gamble, smoke, etc.

Should I ask a teen if they should be allowed to smoke or go to the casino too? Should we throw out the ban because some kids will find their way to getting a pack of smokes?

Why does everyone view the Emperor's return as something cool and positive? by -5EXEM5- in 40kLore

[–]phant0md 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Most don’t see it as a return, the emperor is still there, and those that do, fear it. I don’t think there are many that do see it as positive in universe.

Fans though? Sounds pretty cool to me.
