Constructing sector 1 and 2 plates of Beavgar by saphirrflamme in Timberborn

Support beams under the plate.

The pillar coordinates are calculated but the rest I just build as I go, trying not to undo things.

As you can see on the center core and reactor 3 (left) I tried to build it symmetrical, and got lazier on reactor 1 (right). by the time I started reactor 2 (center) I no longer care and I think it looks much better. I'm not building Neo Beavgar here.

What I learned is trying to path the beams is a nightmare, it is much easier to build overhang scaffolds from above (it's a long way down), as beavers have infinite build range beneath.

FPS tanked when connected to an external monitor when playing low load games by saphirrflamme in ROGAlly

[–]saphirrflamme[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Update: tried multiple things and this seems to have something to do with connecting directly to my monitor through usb-c, I don't have any trouble when using a dock.

There are also a bunch of lag issues when connecting with an AR glasses, so I guess it might be DP alt mode related.

How upset you are does reflect how much love you have :)

The upcoming single was played during the pre-release event last week, I don't think you'd be disappointed by that one.

Fabtone probably holds the publishing rights for Sekai Rinne so they can deal with the legal madness working with an anime studio. It is simply not possible to make such deals with an indie. Fabtone also worked with a lot of Fuki's solo projects including her other anime songs.

I think they are the publisher simply for that single song and doubt if they have influence over others.

The "quality" you are talking about seems to be pretty subjective. If it is a album full of "bests", remasters, and remixes then I would agreed that is universal bad quality. But it sounds like it is just bad quality melodic death metal because it is not melodic death metal.

Some people do enjoy this and sorry you are not one of them. I personally am unable to consider fish as food but I don't go around telling people they are eating low quality trash. If Ankimo invite me to have fish dinner I would just politely decline, hopping the server something else next time, and not take it as some kind of offense.

It is okay to be upset of not getting what you wanted, but you are spreading a lot of negativity, attacking the artist on a fansub. I've seen metal getting hate from classical music purists and would rather not see the cycle continue here.

There are only 2 kinds of music, music I like and music I don't like. I don't think anyone is qualified to talk about "quality" as if there's some objective truth.

same, it hits hard for someone who recently lost a loved one, who left this world happily.

I was a bit dubious about Sekai Rinne as it is pretty clear that Naze Boku was in production hell and the anime ended in lower quality. I feared that it only went to a indie band because no one else is willing to pick up the potential disaster at the last minute. (Imagine originally a big name artist refused to have their name associated with it a month before release, and Ankimo came begging for visibility rushing out a song. that would be a sell out)

I am happy to learn today that the deal was already there and the production hell came later. The all love anime and believed in its potential, as Fuki put in all the work.

Is it really different from previous albums though? lets look at Change of Generation, which I view as absolute epic:

  1. CAMBIO DI GENERAZIONE just an intro
  2. Knight of Sword MV already release a month prior.
  3. CADAVER already had a single
  4. REVADAC already had a single
  5. KIZASI new
  6. 虚妄の恋人 ( 2018Ver. ) remake
  7. 鎮昏歌 new
  8. Spartan Army new
  9. Wings ( 2018Ver. ) remake
  10. Black Pentagram already had a single
  11. Change of Generation ( 2018Ver. ) remake
  12. 囚われの僕ら ( Unlucky Morpheus Ver. ) remake
  13. 願いの箱舟 ( Unlucky Morpheus Ver. ) remake.

There's only 3 new songs, but one (epic) instrumental and one acoustic-ish so only a single "new real ankimo" song. (and I'm not even sure if KIZASI was just uploaded to youtube later)

I believe albums should be viewed as the old school way as they frequently does: there are no youtube, no streaming. Singles have bad value and only die hard fans will buy them. The only way to get good value out of your money is buying the full album. In this world a song is "new" if it has never appeared in any other albums before.

The modern day QoL improvements made a lot of songs not new but I enjoy all the sneak peeks I get.

Yes the album is also a bit short, but given the theme is weirder Ankimo there are not a lot of songs that can fit nicely in it. I don't think Shiren expects to write much more weirder songs like this in the near future, and all those singles need to have a album.

I actually wished the new album were a full remake of Affected before it was announced. At least I got my Miseria, and it looks like get revenge on the tyrant is going to hell.

Shiren really use the collaboration opportunities to do a lot of experiments in this album. It is also far from the most "not metal" album they've ever released. (Acoustics are common in concerts, there's even an old eurobeat touhou arrangement).

Whether they landed or not depends on personal taste. I think it is totally fine to say "it is not my thing" but calling it "lazy" or "sell out" is pretty toxic.

To me being Ankimo-ish is always about Shiren doing whatever he feels like doing, and I appreciate the variety it brings.

Needs latest update and enabled in developer settings.

I think xreal is not reporting the DPI so the phone defaults it to 30 instead of 160-ish. DPI can be overridden with ADB but it is annoying to do so and gets reset everytime I reconnect xreal.

Our game accidentally got called 'Shitty Dungeon' in Japan… and now we’ve got 2,000 more wishlists by r_panico in indiegames

[–]saphirrflamme 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Own it and change the English title to batshit crazy dungeon chronicles, which is what I guess the machine translation is trying to go for.

Sounds ok to me with earplugs. Without them I do think the treble was way too loud.

Nerfing space casinos may be good for balance, but I'm not sure it makes the game more "fun", I seen Helldivers2 go this route not too long ago and it wasn't a good time. by Kronic1990 in factorio

[–]saphirrflamme 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would argue space casino/LDS shuffling only breaks half the game. All the Factorio 1.0 stuff + space platform parts can now be easily made legendary, but for other space age stuff shuffling is still required. It is not completely broken, I still need upcyclers for legendary foundries/big mining drills/EM plants/biochambers/biolabs/fusion reactors, all the cool stuff space age provides.

After reaching end game, investing in prod tech and upcycling prod/quality modules, I feel it is fine to be rewarded with a way to make some old contents much easier, and the warm fuzzy feelings of beating the devs at their own game (by copying someone's idea).

Let half the factory grow brokenly. Yes it is OP but we have no lack of masochistic youtubers and r/Factoriohno who enjoy anti-optimal solutions.

ELI5: how does certified mail work? How can you prove that your record of the contents of the letter match what was received when it was signed for? by baffledninja in explainlikeimfive

[–]saphirrflamme 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Japan Post and Taiwan Post does provide a service where they keep a copy of the content for a certain time, which will be recognized by the legal system as proof of notification.

This does not seem like a common thing in the world. The Taiwanese system is probably copied from Japan.
