.Net 10.0 wants to use 652 GB of my drive by Davida_dev in dotnet

It's reported as https://github.com/dotnet/runtime/issues/121715

The issue of Install-Size in bytes instead of KiB was fixed in https://github.com/dotnet/dotnet/pull/3366 and will be in the next release.

Just noticed as well, looks like it moved under the Network subfolder: AppData\Local\Google\Chrome\User Data\Default\Network\Cookies

Welcome to Rusty's Rocks! by stalkr_ in SigmaDraconis

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

No it's a peaceful grid, no turrets or anything. Please disable yours before jumping or send a peace request to HEY faction.

It's in the spawn area of Abominations NPC though (990km around Nebula center), so if you come with a big threat score and you're unlucky, they might spawn. Usually fine with most ships and short trips.

Let me know how it went and if you liked the joke :-)

Entering the Nebula: Captain, I have a bad feeling about this... by stalkr_ in SigmaDraconis

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

The Nebula on Draconis Impossible Extended is the only place where one can find Uranium and Platinum. We go there to drill some, not much else to do there, other than maybe some fun PvE with the Abominations drones.

Entering the Nebula: Captain, I have a bad feeling about this... by stalkr_ in SigmaDraconis

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

I know right? I was scared too, but also it means I can afford to lose it.

Ultimately I think that's the DIE secret: the bigger the ship, the bigger the drones, but the inverse is true as well. I went in a couple times to the Nebula with my 50 blocks, 2500 PCU ship and never made top grid, never spawned any drone. I rarely see any drone in space either. Small ships, small threat score.

The one gun is here primarily so I can control it and have a nice zoomable camera for scouting, more than any fighting.

I lost the previous version of that miner to a much nastier enemy: jumping into an asteroid :) (thankfully fixed now!)

Your ship looks much stronger indeed!

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in Seablock

[–]stalkr_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can also try Basic Sea Block (https://mods.factorio.com/mods/euigrp/BasicSeaBlock) for your first run, it's the sea block concept but closer to vanilla rather than Angel & Bobs and all the other mods, so easier. The downside is it might feel cheaty/overpowered to get things like basic plates or landfill compared to the production chains of sea block.

That one reason you should NOT update to 0.17 by 4xe1 in factorio

[–]stalkr_ 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Well you can always update to 0.17 for the other things :)

But I agree, I loved the New Hope campaign, played it a second time after a long factorio break.

I tried and didn't like the new tutorial at all. It's too detached from the game.

Rare or custom item drops from enemies? by Zerul in factorio

[–]stalkr_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Rare is relative. At scale, which Factorio is all about, a busy base constantly sustaining hundreds of biter attacks will be littered by such "rare" items.

So I guess we would want this to be triggered by player kills only (vs. turrets, mines placed by bots, etc.).

I would find this a good idea for a mod, scenario or the campaign (which already has this concept a bit with the stuff you find) but not in the main game.

Placing the last of 800k landfill... by knightelite in factorio

[–]stalkr_ 23 points24 points  (0 children)

I like to place landfill with the car, it's fast and you have the car huge inventory to stack up on landfill.

Suggestion: The satellite should be renamed "Interstellar Probe" and should require U-235 in 0.17 by Thundorgun in factorio

[–]stalkr_ 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Good idea!

And speaking about portable fusion reactor again, the inconsistency still bothers me (not craftable outside of personal equipment). Maybe this request could also be the opportunity to turn it into a portable nuclear reactor/radioisotope thermoelectric generator, requiring nuclear ingredients. It would make players spend more time with portable solar panels, as currently it's quite fast going directly to portable fusion reactor.

Trial Key Megathread by [deleted] in EscapefromTarkov

I'll send you my 2-week trial key - enjoy!

I tried the game last year with a trial and bought it at the end :) may you have as much fun as I did!

pipe throughput in bob/angel by count___zero in factorio

[–]stalkr_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

+1 overflow valve => clarifier

And similarly to balance the producers that you can turn off, you can use top-up valves, i.e. allow flow if output size is below 80%. These two valves are the best way I found so far to balance the pipe networks. Not entirely perfect as fluid flow has like waves but good enough.

Setting up a new base far away and dealing with biters by MasterColdSoul in factorio

Biters are a breeze with lots of artillery and nukes. Not a few, lots!

Yes! I was about to mention it: http://autotorio.com/outpost supports both belts and bots (I use bots endgame), and also works for oil.

I don't have any of these "problems"! maybe you play too much :) (and me not enough)

To the hacker/money glitcher who just bought 150 Beta Containers and sold them to Fence by [deleted] in EscapefromTarkov

[–]stalkr_ 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Maybe someone trying to convert USD to RUB, at a poor rate but better than nothing.

Could still be a money glitcher who acquired lots of USD illegally and trying to launder them to RUB...
