I bought two right before stuff jumped too badly. Looked about a week later thinking buying another one might be an ok idea, rofl no way I can justify it now…
So now I’m debating if I really NEED backups… certainly not of everything… I still need a video card, and those never did really come back down…
The best way to get rid of it when it happens is to fill your lungs as much as you can, and then bear down lightly like you are pooping. After that it’s gone.
Happens to me about 3x/yr and always has.
I tried it once, and found it to be intensely lacking in any sort of… well anything.
My brain told me everything was tiny, and I heard a whomp whomp whomp whomp for a few minutes and that was it. It tasted like smoking grass clippings over a campfire, and I went “well its a fun plant to grow but I wont be harvesting it again”
Yeah, I want it purely for aesthetics. I like generating 100% of the planet, and sending colonies to far-flung places via dev mode instant travel to settle in isolation, so I spend a decent amount of time looking at the world map. It just bothers me when it’s mostly land. It’s ugly, imo, and you get fewer interesting land/climate combos, even with expanded biomes. Also one of my mods adds things washing up on the beach, like organs, so I’m a big fan of ocean-adjacent tiles.
Honestly I haven’t gotten the new DLC, and probably wont, so I don’t really know anything about the space stuff. I have way too much time and energy invested in my collection of mods and don’t have any interest in doing it again (I manage them manually because I don’t use steam, so updating/replacing a thousand mods is a big project)
I’ve been playing whiskerwood on and off, its in early access and runs for shit on my crap windows computer, but it’s all islands and it seems they’ll be adding more to water navigation (last patch I installed added ferries and boat docks, and that was a few months ago). I enjoy that sort of thing too, but I don’t think rimworld really needs it.
My point is that if they have less energy density, they aren’t a particularity great choice for EVs, as the increased battery size to get the same capacity makes the whole thing much heavier, requiring even more battery to move it.
I guess for like short range vehicles, it might be fine, but at least around here, thats gunna be a pretty tough sell, because everything is spread out.
It can’t really make EVs safer if its not being used for them due to the drawbacks, is all.
I thought sodium batteries had considerably less energy density than conventional? Is that not a problem anymore? If that hasn’t been solved, I don’t see how this helps make EVs safer.
Why should they replace it if it still works? Thats just wasteful.
This gives me hope. My mother plant is huge and old now, probably 8 or so years, and I don’t take pups off it anymore. Can barely even move the thing outside in summer anymore. I’d love for it to bloom for me.
I tried egg cartons one year but the plant roots really struggled to break through the bottom, and my plants were pretty stunted.
Maybe I’ll try paper cartons next time :p
Seriously though, is that not a problem for you? Kinda wonder what you do differently.
Mine also try to kill me on the stairs. As soon as I start to walk up, they run up a few stairs ahead of me and then stop like assholes. Especially in the dark. Thankfully they don’t hang out on the stairs at other times so I know its going to happen because I hear them.
I’ve started walking up them very slowly, so now they continue the game in the hallways and are guaranteed to get kicked at least once, at which point I say “by now you know I can’t see in the dark, you deserved that.” Rather than rewarding them with apology attention.
So thats where rimworld got the shitty planet generation from. Seriously, I want big contiguous oceans. Not like I can use the vast majority of the planet anyway.
The margin was fantastic, but the turnout sucked. Wisconsin’s population is about 6 million, only 1.5 million voted.
Spring elections always suck for turnout, but with everything going on, I honestly expected better. Hopefully we can get it together for the other stuff this year.
And when you get really sick and go to hospital, the first thing that happens is they control your temperature so your fever doesn’t kill you. Fever is a symptom. A symptom that can cause irrevocable damage to your entire system.
If nuclear or other bomb testing (to say nothing of their stupid war) hasn’t set it off, i doubt this would. Its not that close. The map looks small but its not at all. The distance from Iran to Russia is some 3,000 miles or 4,800 some odd km. Thats roughly the same distance from California to Maine. An entire continent between them.
None of those signals are remotely likely to make it that far. If they do, they’d be hard to distinguish from background noise.
Probably this
You could have pulled it almost immediately because we worked to digitize everything, i was part of that process, yeah.
But that’s not at all the case for someone processing out in 2006, or 2007, and beyond that i don’t know.
I just got downgraded for a problem that has gotten substantially worse while being upgraded for another thing I wanted assessed in tandem, because they feed each other.
The whole process must not have even glanced at my medical records nor the statements in support of my claim, else they’d have been like yeah ok, that is worse.
I talked to an acquaintance who helps vets with claims in an unofficial capacity, and he said they regularity downgrade people for things they think the veteran wont notice. In my case the downgrade doesn’t actually make a financial difference (if it stayed the same), because of secondary issues being half-valued, but its so much worse i hardly drive anymore because I cant, i get trigger point injections now, and so on. Ive been unemployed for three years because I cant find anything that works with my problems, and my rating was low enough that I’ve just been living off savings from when i was employed, and never going anywhere ever (incredibly isolating…). I wouldn’t have had it reassessed if it was better, I’m not stupid. It should have gone up, as it prevents me from working any job with a physical component. But the assessment didnt’t even look at the right place, and i had a migraine hangover and wasn’t in a good position to advocate for myself.
Dehumanizing. The entire thing.
Nah dude, I worked in admin while I was processing out in 2007 and they for sure lost shit enough to prompt me to make a copy of my entire record while working there. The people who worked admin full-time told me to do it for my own sake because that was pretty common.
That was before everything was digital by default. Lots of records went missing for no good reason.
I think its supposed to represent those doing resource distribution, rather than strictly guards, which red blood sort of does (oxygen at least, maybe other stuff idk)
