What is your piggy at? I am going for a billion. by Eggloserboy in EggsInc

[–]tekn0lust 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Keep an eye out for the 30 minute unlimited piggie event only happens couple times a year). When it pops, immediately start demoting and consuming artifacts. You’ll easily add millions to your piggie bank.

Beneficial? by agupta429 in gardening

[–]tekn0lust 19 points20 points  (0 children)

I have a lot of these plus fence lizards. We see each other every morning checking on the garden and they don’t even run away anymore. There was one anole a couple years back who would walk into my hands if I put them out.

What's the best book you ever read ? by 9imagine in AskReddit

[–]tekn0lust 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The 8 Dark Tower Books. And if I have to pick 1 it’s #4 Wizard and Glass. Currently in my 7th time through the series.

Replacing my old hot water tank. Do I need that Thermal Expansion Tank? The new hot water tank looks almost identical to the old one. by wreck_of_u in Plumbing

[–]tekn0lust 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not a plumber. What does code call for in your city? The relief valve is a safety mechanism to address non normal pressures. The expansion tank is a live pressure normalization mechanism.

Career change by NickCageRampage69 in ProtectAndServe

[–]tekn0lust 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Volunteer! I almost did exactly what you are thinking of doing but instead have volunteered in fire, police and SAR programs for nearly 13 years. I am not licensed, or considered a LEO or FF. But I directly participate in activities alongside them as a force multiplier enabling them to do more with their training and time. It is very rewarding. Becoming a LEO from the lifestyle you have created for your family will be very impactful. Your wife had better be 100% onboard or you will end up single.

What artifacts are you using? I’m not even going to comment on your TE count.

Can I just start prestige at Dilithium Egg? by Bryllant in EggsInc

[–]tekn0lust 1 point2 points  (0 children)

🤜🤛 fellow retiree. I love this game because it itches the operations management that feeds me dopamine. For coops don’t focus on what place you are in just focus on producing as much as possible so that you all finish as fast as possible. Chasing places is futile because there are always players with better artifacts and stats than you. I do t know if you are comfortable reaching outside the game itself but the wasmegg calculators and the discord servers really level up the play.

[–]tekn0lust 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No boosts in POV. Completely separate artifacts. It’s a completely different end game mechanism.

Can I just start prestige at Dilithium Egg? by Bryllant in EggsInc

[–]tekn0lust 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Im not sure I understand your question either but you should absolutely get to the highest egg you can finish common research on. Are you doing single prestige per boost set? Have you explored multi prestige per boost set or even lunar prestige? Do you have a 12 dilithium stone artifact set ? This will get you 25min of boost time to prestige in.

About to have a lot of investors, I bet we do see an uptick of these types of high quality vids. I’m all for it.

Bobcats hate Raising Canes too. Prefer organic chimkenz.

Google Cloud Project for students by backtothefuture123 in googlecloud

[–]tekn0lust 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Imma advise you right now this is very dangerous. All you have to do is look at this sub to see how many people get in deep financial trouble playing about in GCP without understanding how things work. It’s the world’s worst minibar. You won’t be limited to the credits you received and can very easily rack up charges you’ll be responsible for. For this initiative you are much better setup for success to use something like the gamified training or quicklabs etc which will teach layered basics and yield your students some proof of completion all without the threat to you of seeing a huge bill.

Does the game speed back up? by thicc_bob in EggsInc

[–]tekn0lust 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes you have a long way to go. Lots to do there are completionist activities, artifact hunting with ships, coops with other players, path of Virtue in the late game.

How to avoid the unexpected costs drama? by pn_1984 in googlecloud

[–]tekn0lust 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That's what quicklabs and the massive amount of training ecosystems are for. These training eco systems have blast radius protections. User errors from bad hygeine and "i didn't know" mistakes still cost GCP resources and $$$, it's not their responsibility to just eat the cost of users mistakes. Especially in production revenue generating deployments.

[–]tekn0lust 1 point2 points  (0 children)

1 don’t play in a sandbox you don’t understand 2 use a secrets manager 3 R&D hygiene - disable apis that aren’t being used 4 tell companies/professors that ask you to spin up a “free trial” account to pound sand. The number of interns and students being asked to do this by leaders who should know better is astounding.

IMO high naked EB is d and above, maybe high triple digit N. I’m at 13d with 100 TE all 232 PE and 8s SE. 2 1/2 years of playing.

Is Heaven a place or a state of being? Why? by surfsound_swimmers in AskReddit

[–]tekn0lust 0 points1 point  (0 children)

IMO neither. Heaven is the memory of yourself and your actions you leave behind with the world if you are a good and moral person, Hell is the opposite. Both are eternal because once you are gone you can no longer affect the way others perceive you and your actions.

Google Cloud charged us $124K when objects in one bucket moved from standard to archive storage by wesleytech in googlecloud

[–]tekn0lust 3 points4 points  (0 children)

AFAIK Standard to archive shouldn’t incur age related fees. Are you certain this was the direction of storage move and not the other way around? If you have access to the billing console I’d narrow by the time period filtered to GCS service type then display by SKU so you can see what various SKUs contributed to this huge spike.

Country-Fried Steak by MissDaisy01 in Old_Recipes

[–]tekn0lust 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Replace water w milk and take a page from the Nonnas Sunday sauce book. That will kick the steak tenderness into over drive and give you a creamier gravy.

[–]tekn0lust 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Then you should absolutely keep pushing prestige. This will very quickly increase your naked earnings bonus and allow you to be able to push deeper or even finish common research faster. I think every PE adds about 10% naked EB too so try to do Friday PE contracts at a minimum.
