I don’t have 1.6, so no.

I’m sure most of the mods I use would be either available or obsolete, but I’m not interested in doing all the work it would take to upgrade everything, and I don’t really feel like I’m missing out.

Maybe someday I’ll make a whole separate setup for 1.6 and have both, but no time soon.

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)

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.

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.

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.

Precision time is by far one of the worst things humans have invented for use by wider society.

Its definitely useful for things like science, but humans aren’t made to live with that level of precision and planning. Its difficult and stressful to abide by clock time.

What we should be using, if we were halfway smart about existing, is approximate time. Chime the hour and nothing else. If you really want clocks, only have them tick every 10 minutes. Embrace being somewhere “between x time and y time”

In college, I had a professor from Spain, who said that people there often don’t really mind a bit of casual lateness (up to 15 min) because thats just how the culture worked, and it had the effect of being less stressful, without really being a detriment because it was normalized. Now idk if thats true, or even entirely true, but it does make perfect sense.

The way that makes the most sense for me is intelligence is related to external learning (books, from others, from detailed study of things, etc) whereas wisdom comes primarily from internal observation (self-reflection, personal experience, situational awareness, etc.)

From doctor who, a species that was in stasis underground for eons.

Definitely the right choice.

Clara is a brunette, I just want to clarify that in case people get confused about which meme. :) (It took me a sec)

Made the mistake of watching the other one recently.

Don’t be like me. There is no sequel.

But also, I’m still mad they left that kid to die in the mineshaft because they couldn’t be bothered with continuity… that would have almost maybe sort of possibly redeemed some of the movie… a tiny bit.
