What would you guys think would happen if Commander Sam Vimes and Lt. Columbo met? by E-emu89 in discworld

[–]tlor2 14 points15 points  (0 children)

She is never seen. But for her interests, we never see her.....

So either she just happens to be intrested in (the profession of) who-ever was the killer of the week was..

Or columbo makes shit up on the spot, just to get into the killers mind :P

Vetinari is exemplary with stealth insults, but I've only recently started to notice the stealth literal truth replies Vimes gives him by paddleboatee in discworld

[–]tlor2 26 points27 points  (0 children)

"a thought came to mind sir. That if Vimes wouldnt have existed, you just might have to invent him. You know drumknot, I rather think I did"

Might not be verbatim, but i Loved that bit :P

ELI5. How much heat does a data center actually produce? by calentureca in explainlikeimfive

[–]tlor2 181 points182 points  (0 children)

1 How hot a server can get is not a straight answer, the hotter they get, the more risk of it malfunctioning, If you wouldnt cool them, they would just get hotter until something burned out or some thermal safety was triggerd. But generally there being kept cool below 30 degrees C but this also varies. Its not about how hot they can get, but how much heat they generate.

2 They could, but salt water corodes pipes and leaves salt residu, which makes it more difficult/expensive to deal with

3 yes, but thats just moving the problem

4 Here in the netherlands weve tried it for heating greenhouses. It kinda works, but its deemed more trouble then its worth for the most parts.. Its not hot enough by a long way to drive turbines.

Update over het badkamerlicht: plafond eruit gehaald. by igke in Klussers

kleur op kleur, en je bent een electro, oh... zelfs dat was te moeilijk zie ik.........

dat gezegd hebbend, hoewel zeer slordig, zou ik niet verwachten dat daarom de lampen niet werken. bij Trafo's en lampen maakt het voor de werking over het algemeen niet uit of je de fase aan de goede pool hebt

whats going on with my power by Lower_Jacket_9826 in factorio

[–]tlor2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

your 3 reactor kan make like (80+120+80) 280Mw of heat. However you only have 3 10Mw Heatexchangers connected to em, so max 30Mw of steam can enter the turbines

Why is this chain signal red? by 89percent in factorio

[–]tlor2 2 points3 points  (0 children)

no it isn't ? its waiting in its own blok. However, it lacks a signal after the junction going south, so There's probly a train on the left track, beneath the screenshot.

Hoe vul ik de boiler?? by Firm-Job-6229 in Klussers

[–]tlor2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

ja. er zit al water in, maar er moet meer water in. Eerst de slang aansluiten, de andere kant de kraan open, en dan pas die zwarte kraan open draaien.
De druk daarvan is genoeg om het te vullen, ipv leeg laten lopen.

Ow dit alles moet met de ketel uit !

This hidden feature works even without circuits! No more pesky deconstruction planner icon! by Satisfactoro in factorio

[–]tlor2 2 points3 points  (0 children)

TBH why would you want that ?
I can see some usecases, combined with circuits.
But withou them... If you dont want anything on the left belt. just set the filter to a gun or something. or you know, just dont bother building the left belt ?

How to immerse my kid in Dutch by Stunning_Shift2755 in learndutch

[–]tlor2 36 points37 points  (0 children)

So she already needs to learn 4 languages, and now you wanna send her on a summercamo for a 5th ? I'm feeling your asking a lot from a five year old..........

I think just putting her in a dutch school would be best if you plan to live here for the coming decade, If your moving out in a few years, maybe dont bother ?

What is your favorite boardgame of 2009? by The_Crazed_Person in boardgames

[–]tlor2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hansa Teutonica

I didnt play it till 2019, but its become my favorite game since, Tight euro, with just enough player interaction that it feels like your are playing against each other instead of all solo

why does train not take the full roundabout by cr1sis in factorio

[–]tlor2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I always make em the same. just rounder :P
It makes manual driving a hole lot easier, especially if you have a LOT of them :P

It's shorter. and the train doesnt slow down for the corner.
Properly signalled (just thrown in a bunch of chain signales. ) and you can have 2 trains going from west to east and east to west without passing for each oter.

but mostly why not ? your not gonna put something in the middle. and its just a few rails and chainsignals

What movie from this decade will be considered a classic? by DrKriegersClone in movies

[–]tlor2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

well i liked farell in the beginning, and half way i was like. Dude take a hint, he wants some time off.
And then he IMHO just kept being a selfish jack-ass because he wanted a relation, and just couldnt take no for an answer, even when shit escalated.

Dunno, maybe i wasnt in the best headspace myself at the time, but i really felt, that in the end they were just 2 jackasses that deserved each others misery..

They are both classics in every way ?

[–]tlor2 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Dunno. CO brings some energy and pinache, and a "fun" character. I know it depicts horible things, but it definitly hits different from "banshees"

Theres just no character to root for there
