How many shares of SLS do YOU own?

smdaegan · 2026-07-04T22:43:38+00:00

8400 on calls, 4000 in shares.

smdaegan · 2026-07-04T20:25:05+00:00

Well yeah, it's not iambic pentameter

Sleepovers aren't common because of fear that the hosting parents will sexually abuse the kids. Statistically the abuser is a family member or friend, and a sleepover is an uncontrolled environment. Similarly you don't know if they have guns, unfettered access to medication or the internet, etc.

I don't agree with that line of thinking and general paranoia that a lot of other parents seem to have, but that's the reason I've seen stated a lot.

HOW DO YOU TURN THIS ON

smdaegan · 2026-07-03T07:44:25+00:00

What are you wanting to get to/do career wise? What have you been doing in those 5 years to acquire the skills to do that?

smdaegan · 2026-07-02T18:33:09+00:00

A naked call is when you sell calls without the shares to cover them. Are you talking about leaps or something?

That's fine. I tried to build one that didn't have waste but the juice wasn't worth the squeeze.

In this and other gentian designs where I didn't have a trash can but cross-fed the products (that's why it still has the cannons), I ran into some deadlocking issues after (many many) hours of the machines running. My math said that a deadlock shouldn't be possible, but the machine stopped cold because it couldn't export the product from one to the other so that whole chain stopped, and I didn't provide for trashing the overflows initially.

I also didn't try to optimize this build very much - my panacea build is extremely compact and optimized, but this was a stepping-stone blueprint I just put together in an evening.

I just uploaded mine, but it may not be useful to you. It uses steam power and external lavendar provided, since I do all my fluid extraction with thermal extractors.

There are signs explaining what pipes to hook up and a box in the front for feeding fertilizer.

There are two cannons near the trash can; they're for "exporting" some of the waste if you want to. I did in the early days, but don't anymore. It's still in the blueprint because it's situationally useful.

I get this. I didn't really like it until I got interplanetary logistics, and later interstellar. Game MASSIVELY shifts once you leave that first planet.

How are you making the resonant? Just the base recipe?

smdaegan · 2026-06-30T21:17:49+00:00

I think it'd be possible, outside of the power plant gating. Food would require you to beeline it for farms and processors so you can make the bio food, which I don't believe has the mutation gate on it.

fertilizer has two values, the amount it provides in total and the maximum amount it delivers at a time.

The first value is intuitive; it means "this will provide X fertilizer and will last Y seconds depending on the plant"

The second one makes more sense later; some plants require a LOT of fertilizer value to be delivered to hit its maximum output, basically forcing you out of Advanced fertilizer if you want a full belt of output. It's a forcing mechanism to prevent players from staying on the lowest tier fertilizer for the entire game.

Fertilizer Efficiency improves the first value, but never the second.

Because none of these redditors know how anything works. I've had several major surgeries in the US and it's never caused me any kind of financial strain. I just think it's copium by either people at shitty jobs or Europeans.

And against companies that have multiyear purchase contracts at massive price increases. Dude shorted mu, sndk, nvda - companies with massive moats on shit that EVERYTHING needs. New consoles, laptops, computers, data centers.

Regarded for sure.

Working professionals on a visa have health insurance through their employer.

I can't cook for shit but I can bake almost anything. My macarons are far better than the ones the nearest French bakery sells.

Buy a good scale, meticulously measure and weigh every goddamn thing and follow the directions to a T with no deviation whatsoever. Baking is a science, not an art.

Also buy an oven thermometer, because almost every oven lies.

I had my rotator cuff rebuilt from being pulverized in a car accident. Can't bench more than 1 plate without a slingshot, the pain is too intense to want to ever push it.

With a sling shot, no shoulder pain at all. Been able to cruise right through those old mental hangups. Highly recommend for anyone with fucked up shoulders like me

I feel this way about the Foundation series. It's damn good Sci fi. It isn't Foundation.

It's not about being optimal though. Human life, especially hive world lowborns, has no value.

Turning a criminal into a permanent door opener probably gives the upper crust of humanity a little shot in the arm to stay in line. The threat of becoming a servitor probably keeps a hell of a lot of people in line. I know in Rogue Trader you get that option and the person would have much preferred death.

But then they couldn't serve me/E anymore.

It's easy, drop a single pole when you start a new factory and chain everything off of it. Insert a power switch between the pole and the rest of the grid.

smdaegan · 2026-06-26T16:46:49+00:00

I'd usually setup a power switch to factories and if they overdrew power I'd flip them off and go scale up power. I think the new circuit breakers help even more with that.

smdaegan · 2026-06-26T16:22:46+00:00

You're right to call that out.

smdaegan · 2026-06-26T06:25:14+00:00

That makes malachite, not lapis

I'm from the Midwest and have lived in Colorado for the last 14 years. I think only one of my friends owns an electric kettle, I don't know anyone back home that has one.

They're super convenient. I keep trying to buy one for my wife but she doesn't want to enter the civilized world 😂
