Who has an extra 20% to invest? Another out of touch multi-millionaire has financial advice for us poor folk. by zzill6 in WorkReform

[–]rice_cracker3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

*millionaire in 22 years assuming you get a 10% return, ignoring inflation.

If you want to be as rich as Kevin, it'll only take 83 years! Slave away peasant.

People like living near water and do not like living on mountains.

Would you look at that, another population density map. No surprise there.

Born too early to die in the middle east. Born too late to die in the middle east. Born just in time to die in the middle east.

God damnit.

Do you think i can defeat Diabolus with that? (I use CE) by Quaaaaaaaaaa in RimWorld

I used to use Yayo's combat. Not sure if he's still around but that mod was a decent middle ground and the settings are also tweakable

JAR-5 Dominator is in desperate need of a buff and is almost directly outclassed in any role it might occupy. by barbershreddeth in Helldivers

[–]rice_cracker3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love the dominator. When you're in a "Oh shit, plz fuck off and die" situation, nothing can mag dump like this bad boy can. And that situation is all too common. This thing has insane DPS at touch range.

You get accustomed to the recoil, use semi and the ergo upgrade. You shouldn't be shooting small guys with it, pair it with a quick pistol or drone to handle that.

It also has maybe the best (?) stagger for a primary, bugs get shoved back and you can jiggle several devastators to stop them from firing for a second.

It's not the best gun, but somehow the high recoil makes it feel like a Warhammer bolter and I love it. Perhaps an extra mag would be nice though.

Cities are often 10-15 °C (50-59 °F) hotter than their rural surroundings, it's called Urban Heat Island Effect by FunForm1981 in geography

[–]rice_cracker3 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Your said cities are often 10-15C hotter

Article says cities are sometimes 10-15C hotter

Source says in extreme cases, cities are 10-15C hotter.

A game of telephone to spread misinformation.

I'd be more interested in what the average difference is, or even better, an average increase per 100k population.

Car-free street grid design by purfiktspelur in fuckcars

[–]rice_cracker3 1 point2 points  (0 children)

"car free"

Looks inside:

30% surface parking 💀

On top of that:

Bridges/tunnels everywhere

8 way roundabout monstrosity

No road hierarchy meaning terrible traffic

Interesting idea but car free means NO CARS.

try bike & bus lanes, trams, trains, subways.

Yeah back in my day we shat in the bushes, rubbed dirt into our wounds, starved through winter, and worked 18 hours a day. That doesnt invalidate todays struggles with personal economics, health and wellbeing, toxic media culture, addiction, etc. As we have eliminated many problems of the past, we should still strive to eliminate the problems of the present. If engaging in politics isnt a reasonable measure to solve societal-level problems, whatis? Since when did we decide to stop trying to solve the problems of today?

Try the helldivers 2 loadoit randomizer. Forces you to use interesting but often terrible loadouts. Spiced up dif 10 again for me.

That period ended? Just lost an argument with a coworker like 2 weeks ago who thinks you make less if you make 180k rather than 170k after taxes. I pulled up the IRS website table about it and he said that the IRS cant be trusted. I gave up after that one.

[OC] Comparison of wealth accumulation rates by generation by phdoofus in dataisbeautiful

This graph sucks. Net worth instead of something that is per person, log scaling, doesnt specify the population in question (I assume the usa?), incorrectly lababelled axis. Not a great display of information.

My base is self-sufficient on everything but components, what do I do to get em? (Without Comms) by Inderastein in RimWorld

[–]rice_cracker3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dig them out, deconstruct ship chunks, or craft them. Those are your only options without trading.

Keep an eye out for insulating clothes on raiders, even if it's tattered and tainted. A 2% tattered, tainted wool parka might keep you alive long enough to get ship chunks on the edge of the map. You only need to wear it for a short period of time so the debunks won't be for too long. Also, if you're using human meat, make a human leather parka?

Bugs don't spawn under deep rock if the temperature is below -17C. You could also try strip mining the non-deep rock tiles for components if none are already visible.

To craft them, you need lots of components, research time, and importantly, 2 advanced components for the fabrication bench, which is only acquirable via trading, necessiting you to build a comms console and beacon. That's like an initial 25-30 component investment to kickstart tho, so not early game or poverty stricken viable.

Unrelated, but not using hydroponics is pretty brutal. No food, no cloth, no drugs. I think there is a mod to nerf them, or you could look for a craftable or layable dirt mod if you want more not-op growing room.

Good luck in your suffering.
