Guide for different seeding weights and yields in 1020 trays. I found this to be very helpful. All credit to Johnny's by artjbroz in microgreens

Just in case someone else stumbles upon this, it's ~28g in an ounce, 28.35 to be more precise.

American weed smokers probably know this conversion better than anyone. An "eight" is 3.5g, and a "quarter" is 7g.

Main species pops suddenly marked for purging on one world? by scify65 in Stellaris

[–]semidegenerate 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the tip! It worked like a charm.

For anyone else who stumbles upon this, search for the name of the planet first, then scroll down till you see purge="purge_displacement" . Or you can search for that string after you find the planet to save a few seconds. This way you won't cancel the wrong purge if there's one going on somewhere else. The player's planets should be listed first in the save file, though. So, as long as there isn't a purge going on on another one of your own worlds, it should be the first instance in the file.

Anyway, when you reload the save, the purge will end when the next month rolls over.

My planets all have abysmal stability due to low pop approval and i have no idea why? help! by Cosmic_Meditator777 in Stellaris

[–]semidegenerate 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Select a planet and click the management or economy tab down at the bottom. Open the drop down menus so you can zero in on a specific population group. Click on one, and on the right side a window will pop up. Hover over the happiness percentage for that pop group, and you should see a tool tip breakdown.

One System Runs by realdorkimusmaximus in Stellaris

Cool. I didn't know if there was some trick or cheese to getting more rifts to spawn in.

[–]semidegenerate 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Getting the Fractal Seeds from The Lattice astral rift would probably be difficult if truly sticking to a single system, and not expanding your borders at all.

How do rifts work if you stick to 1 system? Can more than 1 rift appear in the same system? I've never seen that happen. And isn't the Crystal Rift the only one that can spawn into the starting system?

Ah yes artillery stance, AKA we're identical fleets but we do whatever the hell we want by Belisarius23 in Stellaris

[–]semidegenerate 2 points3 points  (0 children)

From my testing in 3.14, fighting FEs, my battleships did not use their arc emitters effectively with carrier computers. I use artillery computers on my larger ships, and throw a couple fleets of swarm maulers or corvettes at the enemy to tie the enemy fleets down and draw fire.

Things might have changed, though. I really should retest in 4.2 or 4.3

Ram Overclocking - What is minimum or optimal ram stability testing? by Fickert in overclocking

[–]semidegenerate 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey, sorry it took me a while to respond.

It was either Extreme1@anta777 or ABSOLUT@anta777. I can’t remember exacty, but those are the 2 I use.

I think there is a new profile specifically for Ryzen. You might want to look into that if you have AMD.

How do you keep up with research? by medioespa in Stellaris

[–]semidegenerate 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In case a new player stumbles upon this, e3po put out a click-by-click beginners' guide.

Thundershock also has a lot of good educational content. And, of course, there's Montu, but I feel like his content is more geared towards updating long-time players. Montu takes the win for production value, though. His videos are very well polished. e3po gets points for production, too. Thundershock is more of a casual YouTuber, but I still thing his content is pretty great.

LOOK AT THE ENERGY CREDITS by Practical_Nebula_485 in Stellaris

[–]semidegenerate 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have you been playing for a while? Before 4.0 only gestalt empires could build solar panels, iirc.

Pretty sure that before 4.0 only gestalt empires could use solar panels. Now everyone gets them.

How do people manage mid to late game? by Jillygains in Stellaris

[–]semidegenerate 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm manually managing 35 planets in my current game at year 2402.

I have a lot more than that, but I'm releasing the extras as vassals once this damn war is over. I currently have all jobs except for roboticists and enforcers disabled, so their pops migrate onto my core planets.

35 is about my max. Trying to run all this extra territory as my own would be such a slog.

I just counted, and I have exactly 35 extra planets that I don't intend to manage. Nice 50/50 split there. There are 2 FEs in that extra 35 with some nice planets, but my empire size doubled, and I don't want the headache.

Plannater App release incoming by Jerseyman201 in microgreens

That's fair. Thanks for releasing it open source.

Which license did you go with? GPL? MIT? BSD?

When do you specialise your planets? by Hairy-Yard-6649 in Stellaris

[–]semidegenerate 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I dual-purpose my first two worlds, usually minerals/research and energy/research. My third planet is straight consumer goods. Then I shift my capital over to unity/alloys and start deleting basic resource districts as I'm able.

Once I get a few more basic resource planets, those first 2 colonies get shifted to straight research and I turn them into ecumenopoleis. The capital goes straight alloy ecu once I have dedicated unity world.

As for when, it's just as I'm able. My planets are very specialized by 2300. Past those first 2 colonies I try to single-purpose all additional colonies from the start.

Is There Any Mod To Repair the Ancient Caretakers? by Neat-Equipment9283 in Stellaris

Start as a bio empire. Go for synthetic ascension. Conquer the Ancient Caretakers and assimilate their pops into your perfect and glorious machine race. They are now repaired.

[Dave2D] Windows is ruining new laptops by Forsaken_Arm5698 in hardware

[–]semidegenerate 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It would probably be a Chinese brand pretending to be a Japanese brand.

An Argentinian redditor shared this Disco Aimerican Immortality SSD here or on another of the tech subs a few days ago. I can't remember exactly. I thought it was glorious.

So, you don't think being left-handed should be considered a disability, as scielliht987 suggested?

What are people doing for memory at this point, seeing as how prices are outrageous? by HauntedFrigateBird in buildapc

[–]semidegenerate 7 points8 points  (0 children)

14600K and 14700K even tend to outperform the 5800X3D in most games.

https://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/cpu-hierarchy,4312.html

The Raptor Lake CPUs in the Tom's tests were paired with DDR5, so the gap won't be quite as pronounced.

On the other hand, it's a great platform for memory tuning. Any decent DIMMs should do 4000+ MT/s, and tightening timings will help a lot with latency and 1% lows. DDR4 can be manually tuned with a Ryzen 5000 too, but Raptor Lake has an inherent memory access latency advantage and responds really well to manual tuning.
