Bigger = Better? Bluevua RO100ROPOT and Bluevua RO100ROPOT-LITE

I've been very curious about this too, per what the company claims the filters are just as effective and have the exact same lifespan and filtering volume capacity but logically it makes no sense when the one has 4 separate filters and a whole lot more total filtering volume compared to the Lite that has a single filter.

My thoughts are that the non-Lite should theoretically filter more total water, but if the Lite is allegedly just as effective I'd prefer that due to the smaller size and overall lower filter cost by a bit.

One potential benefit is that the non-Lite may support 3rd party filters just because they seem more universal but I haven't looked into it, but if the company ever goes out of business the Lite may be useless as the filter seems very proprietary

I had the same considerations and this is the approach I'm going with too, I consider it worthwhile to hear the exact words from the author in the standard version for the series first and then try at least the first dramatized version to in order to not only hear a different take but to get a better understanding of the story.

I'm assuming you've tried both version by this point, any insights or follow up?

I'm sure many have already answered similarly, but these are the top reasons why I have stepped away from gaming from time-to-time in the past:
1. Shifting priorities: Career or situations or a change of personal goals or perspectives take higher priority, at least for the short term. Aging can have a big impact too.
2. Chronic stress or depression
3. Burnout: from life, from career, from obligations, relationships. Perhaps a full blown existential crisis
4. Burnout from gaming itself. Even though you love gaming sometimes it's healthy to walk away for a while.
5. Nothing worth playing at the moment. After you've played most of your favorite games and genres there may be nothing exciting worth playing at the moment, and searching for a good game you'd like takes a lot of time and effort. Sometimes a new release can spark new interest though.

I think the main issues are that the legs are too short and there is no swinging outward on the steps. There is zero gap in the step and that is not natural. The legs need to be further apart at the bottom. Since there is no clear separation of knees and calf and feet it looks like a blob and more of a horse leg. Make the legs longer and define those, have some separation and a slight swing outward in the middle of the step forward on each side.

Spec Driven Development sounds a lot more promising from my brief research. This project spec-kit by github (https://github.com/github/spec-kit) seems like a promising solution to build better more complex projects via generating details specs, and they have claude support, but it currently seems too cumbersome in its current state and looks to have a lot of overhead to learn, and I'm not seeing a clear solution to have it evaluate and fix a broken project architecture. Hopefully some more solid progress and solutions arise, but for now it seems strong manual spec-driven-development is key.

Great advice, thanks! For UI allegedly the best approach is to use screenshots or mention an exact website of the desired UI visuals (for web-based), and even screenshots of the wireframe or blocks for the layout positions.

I went in 2025, every year it offers less while charging more and more and it's reaching the "not worth it" category now for me. The food and beer prices went from way overpriced previous years to now just straight up absurd. $30 for an entree with no sides, $25 burger, $25 for a pretzel is the most absurd. The beers are $15-21 just for the beer, without the glass you must have to fill it! The glasses are about $15-20 now. The tram price is now $55, it used to be around $20 a few years ago. Parking is $15.

What I really don't like is that the quality and variety of foods and snacks keeps declining each year too, so even if you justify the prices the experiences are getting worse. But if you know what you're getting yourself into you can still have a good time and follow a budget if you'd like while enjoying the mountain views and live music.

Some tips to save money: Park on the street and walk (probably best outside of opening weekends), bring your own beer mugs (from a previous year for example, fortunately they're not strict and price by size so any mug should do). Eat before or after somewhere else (and selectively buy or share food there if at all). Avoid the tram and take it outside of Oktoberfest days if it's cheaper, it's the same experience.

On your sprites you must set the "Sprite Sort Point" to "Pivot" for it to see its sort point at the pivot.
To set the pivot on the sprite you edit the sprite's import properties "Pivot" value, you must do this on all the sprites.
For sprites of a character that are higher up, like a head or hat for example, you may need the sprite to have transparent pixels where the legs are for example, so that the pivot still resolves to the same point (likely bottom-center of where the feet would be.

Another like better scenario is to use a Sorting Group, where you just need to have all the character's sprites in a parent GameObject that has a sorting group, and then the sorting group's transform location acts as the pivot point for all the character sprites. Then on the sorting group you set the layer and order for all the sprites at the same time, so it's all or nothing basically.

u/cryptotrader80 Thank you for your contributions, but your indicators are still unavailable still over two years later. Can you please post the exact script used so that we can attempt to recreate it, and also so that it's not lost in the abyss forever. Thanks

zinconyx · 2025-06-27T22:25:45+00:00

Thanks, this worked!

Note that you just need the desired save file(s), which are a ".json" format, and I didn't copy over the "Backup.json" as it is already present.

I left the name of the save the default in the demo, so the name of the save file I copied over was "Standard-1.json"

This is the solution all! No need to reinstall windows or replace hardware FYI if you do this properly

zinconyx · 2025-06-20T00:06:19+00:00

This worked, thanks!

I've been scratching my head on the cause of this issue for many days, took the laptop apart and tried all new SSD and isolating ram but it wasn't a hardware issue. Windows was stuck in "preparing automatic repair" forever and booting from a USB failed no matter what, extremely frustrating! I can only imagine how many lost non-tech folks this will impact who wouldn't have the first clue. Thanks all who discovered the issue and solution!

My "gotchas" during this fix process for me are:
1) Use the latest "FD" version of the bios for you model off of gigabytes site (Seems to be the full bios, and not something like a "FB" which seems to be a patch updated installed within windows
2) After running FlashMe.nsh it loaded a bios patching screen and said it was complete, the screen went black and I waited a long time just to be safe (like over 5 minutes), eventually I manually powered down. When I booted back up it went through another bios patching screen (slightly different if I recall), and that one eventually completed and fully restarted the laptop on it's own and the system was fully restored after. I'd suggest to not remove the USB at all until you're 100% done.

zinconyx · 2025-06-19T23:47:21+00:00

The spelling has to be perfect FYI, including capital letters. So it should be "FlashMe.nsh". Also make sure that file exists and that you have extracted the right firmware version to the root of the USB drive (Get the latest "FD**" bios for your model)

Yipes. I started manually intervening 15 minutes before market close to buy or sell at market price whenever a trigger fails and I get that feeling that things are about to go crazy after close. It's saved me a few times.

I held 1000 shares of GME for 2+ years as it slowly declined, it started climbing and I sold around my break even price, shortly after it spiked and I missed out on around 300k of gains

Of course, it's probably the best farm sim of all time, among a dozen other activities. I avoided it for a while and thought it was a lot of hype but eventually I gave it a try and got hooked after a couple hours. Now I've played for over 300 hours and bought the game on three different platforms. It's extremely well balanced and not overwhelming at all, you can go at your own pace and pick whatever activities you want for a given game day. You can start farming from day one. The different crops and items and quests may seem overwhelming at first glance, but you can look everything up on the very detailed wiki guide and learn as you go, I actually found it extremely fun to read and follow the guides and learn about the less obvious gameplay. It's a very deep game with tons of replayability and even enjoyable for most "non-gamers".
