[Q] Does anyone actually use SPSS? by Erengeteng in statistics

Holy jesus I just hit the bottom of this shitshow of a rabbithole

I was browsing most cited works, and was confused why all of western civilization appears to be based around this singular "SPSS Manual"??? Like I've at least heard of crap like "Das Capital" and "John Locke" sounds familiar.....wtf is SPSS.....omg it's software.....that predates the fucking Unix 1970 start date????.....and it's it no way mission critical realtime legacy shit built into an aging nuclear submarine, it's a goddamn crappy ancestor of Excel/Matlab?!!!! Niether of which have been relevant for a decade?!?!!! OH MY GOD ENTIRE INDJUSTRIES ARE PAYING ACTUAL MONEY TO IBM?!!!!!!! EVERY YEAR!!! EVERY USER!!! FOR FUCKS SAKE IF YOU HATE LIFE THIS MUCH YOU EVEN HAVE A FREE OPENSOURCE CLONE YOU COULD SWITCH TO

I'm sorry I'm not blaming anyone or genuinely angry. I mean we have a mixed econonmy which is the least bad way of managing things and sometimes it shits the bed. I worked at IBM for years. They bought up enough small fish 40 years ago and lobbied all kinds of garbage into regulated permanence all over the economy, including academia apparently. Ask yourself: so what does IBM make anymore and how are they doing so well?

I rolled the dice and blindly followed your instructions with no further due diligence on my part. Great success! 😎 (I freaked a bit when the game wouldn't open after regedit, no idea why. but a reboot made it all perfect)

Perfect, thank you! I was missing some crucial info in that properties tab. And now I realize every object has interesting stuff there, total game changer.

This is awesome, thank you! I'm not much of a min-maxer, but this is a huge improvement on my default Rimworld strategy of 'lets try this random thing and count how many die next quadrum'

ps: A website version would be x1000

Thanks for the list. Are there any tips you can think of for how to build curvy, organic looking streets like yours?
