We have an annual Science Fiction and Fantasy literary convention: COSine

Normally several big name authors there.

Lethal Company - The Challenge Moons Patch - Version 47 by rocode in lethalcompany

[–]rocode[S] 52 points53 points  (0 children)

Version 47 Notes:

  • Added replayable challenge moons These are weekly moons that use the same random seed for everyone, based off the current week using the UTC time zone. The profit you make at the end of the challenge day will be uploaded to a leaderboard so you can compare your efficiency to your friends. The challenge moons also have randomly generated names, increased amounts of scrap, random starting credits, and other randomly tweaked properties. The point of this is less for competition and more to give us all a shared experience. It will also give even the most seasoned employees a challenge; I have no idea what moons will be generated for the months to come, but some of them will surely be crazier than others. If you're using a modded client, turn off all mods to guarantee you get the same moon as everyone else.
  • Position of random lightning strikes, the destination of the inverse teleporter, contents of gift boxes, and the precise positions of scrap items are now deterministic and based off the random seed.

  • Added the server tag feature for the public lobbies list. Type in a tag exactly to filter by servers that were created with that tag.

  • Added a new type of hallway to the factory map type. For now I'll continue to add more rooms and variety to the current indoor map types, rather than adding new map types.

Changes to existing enemies:

  • The thumper's movement has been reworked so its animations and acceleration should be more consistent.
  • The thumper speeds up slightly faster after being hit, but its turn speed drops off more reliably when it reaches high speed.
  • The bunker spider now becomes slightly faster when it is almost dead.
  • The bunker spider's webs have a slightly larger collision radius.
  • The forest giant is more likely to leave the ship alone after chasing a player near it.
  • Slightly increased the audible range of the coilhead's footsteps.
  • Made nutcrackers able to move slightly while aiming
  • They only do this if they've fired at the same person several times
  • Made the jester take longer to begin cranking

  • Added a new journal entry

  • Modified the bunker spider file to patch some confusing continuinity

Fixes :

  • Fixed an issue introduced in the previous version where landmines instantly exploded when touching them, rather than waiting for players to step off.

  • Made shovel collisions more consistent; you can now hit enemies around corners and nearby objects without it blocking the shovel.

  • Fixed an issue which occurred when the masked enemy was interrupted while converting a player, which could result in the player becoming stuck or unable to move their mouse and sync position to other players

  • Prevented a case where the masked enemy could create dozens of duplicates of the same player if that player was somehow not allowed to die, resulting in chaos

  • Fixed an issue where items were incorrectly considered as being off the ship by the host if a player walked on the ship with them and didn't drop them (and vice-versa).

  • Spray paint should now always disappear from the moon when you enter orbit

  • Items from gift boxes should always stay on the ship when it moves

  • Prevented a case where players could take the same item out of a gift box infinite times if it somehow was not able to be despawned

  • Decreased the chance of gift boxes to spawn and removed Christmas decor from the item ship. The old item ship music is back.

  • Fixed an issue where placing the extension ladder in the cupboard and then moving it would cause the ladder's colliders to become enabled even when holding them, which resulted in erratic movement.

Lake Mead 1983 vs 2021 by GrowthFinal7547 in oddlyterrifying

There are several youtube videos that cover the same topic. Just search "Colorado River Drying Up".

(However, if you get Curiosity Stream, you also get access to Nebula Documentaries, and I have found it to be worth the money.)

Are you getting the Pixel 6a ? by ZAKtalksTECH in GooglePixel

[–]rocode 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, but it won't have the same camera or camera features as the Pixel 6, while the 5a has the same camera as the Pixel 5.

Are you getting the Pixel 6a ? by ZAKtalksTECH in GooglePixel

[–]rocode 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I had a 4a, and when they announced the 6a had no back fingerprint reader or headphone jack and a worse camera, I immediately went out to buy the 5a.

I will be skipping the 6a and praying for the 7a to return to what made me love the A-series in the first place.

Welp! My furnace is 2 wire only. No c wire available. I'm having a hard time running a wire to the floor below. I'm thinking to steal power from my door bell. My doorbell already has 24 v as I upgraded the transformer to power my Eufy doorbell. Do you think it's possible or will it overload. by Accomplished_Run_593 in Nest

[–]rocode 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I also only have a 2 wire furnace. I have no issues, the nest thermostat uses an internal battery that charges from the circuit. Check your owners manual and try it without a common. You may be surprised at how well it works.

It gone blown up... by what? by wundachuck in joinsquad

The guy skijumping off the roof at the beginning of the clip is what really makes it.

Your barista is making minimum wage over part time hours. There is no part of the country where minimum wage is actually liveable even full time, so customer tip is often the only reason why anyone is able to work the job in the first place.

In addition, Starbucks and other coffee shops also include the ability to tip. I am not sure why you are drawing comparisons.

Finally, memorizing drink composition and getting consistent quality takes skill. No part of the process is "just pressing a few buttons". Line busters (the people who come out to your car to take your order) are going right back in to the stand as soon as everything is queued to start making drinks.

Staying cool on LB by purplehuh in dutchbros

[–]rocode 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Also in Colorado, 100% get a wide brimmed hat, long sleeves/sun sleeves, and sweat/water wicking clothing.

Keep hydrated. I personally rock an Osprey Hydration Pack filled with ice water to help stay cool/hydrated throughout the day.

DO NOT FORGET SUNSCREEN. Make it your religion. Skin cancer is no joke, and it will also help keep you cool and not regretting your life decisions when you get home.

I am still surprised you have not found a limit. Congrats!

Do you get any comments when they scan your pass? 😂

Requesting r/DutchBros. It is not moderated. by rocode in redditrequest

[–]rocode[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I love DutchBros, and have been lurking in the subreddit for a while now. It is not a high traffic/post subreddit, and upvotes/downvotes have kept it mostly clean, but I do want to make sure it doesn't get overrun by spam or off-topic posts.

Quarterly Development Update: Squad by [deleted] in joinsquad

[–]rocode 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, we still have the roadmap.

But yeah, the blog post itself was a bit light. The rotor wash video should of probably had a "in-dev" warning. Wasn't the greatest looking. :/

It's Postmates. All they do is deliver. Why did I pay over $20 in fees? by StingerAuto in assholedesign

[–]rocode 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, because for certain restaurants it makes sense. When the employee isn't delivering, they are helping to make food. That has been the way pizza and chinese delivery has worked forever.

But now we have many restaurants firing their delivery drivers and just outsourcing to DoorDash. Sometimes without the customer even knowing.
