that putting the thermostat up higher will heat the house up quicker

If you have a 2 stage furnace, this may actually be a thing.

Actually it’s by design! Right side is for the lower ports, that’s why there’s the number with an arrow above it.

But if the game doesn’t take 5 minutes to load when am I supposed to say goodbye to my family and grab the last thing I am going to drink that day?

To build on your comment: cost of living has a surprisingly fixed price. Different qualities of living don’t cost massively different. If the average person has to spend their whole earnings on living an “average life”, if you make 2x and want to live twice as nice of a life, it likely only cost 1.5x the “average life”. Earning 2-3x opens up a lot of luxury even though it may not seem like it.

There are a couple avenues of attack:

1. The camera- It the camera can’t see the board, it can’t provide moves. An IR blaster may be a valid tool to blind the camera, but not the player. This could be a battery and LED with a switch that is placed next to the board.
2. The internet connection - If the AI can’t talk to where the processing is happening, it can’t get answers. Anything from a jammer to a metal cage would work here, but watch your legality.
3. The device itself - anything to stop the device from working. This could be a EMP, but that’s rather non-selective.
4. The board - limiting information from the board in a way humans can understand but AI currently can’t. This could be as simple as only showing half of a board at any time.

The IR blaster is likely your best bet, else it might be time for a ruling of “no electronic glasses at the board”.

Right now the plan is to go to Vulcanus. I will be packing a landing pad!

The ship can carry way too much, so the plan is to take 300-500 panels and a couple hundred accumulators!

Yup, exactly what I did! Stored limited ammo in the hub via a circuit to prevent overloading, and only send a green signal if their is enough ammo and fuel.

Good call! Noticed the silo can’t be packed, but everything to build a silo can!

I know some people don’t think it’s legit, but I play on peaceful. Prefer the zen of building without interruption or having to rebuild.

Thanks!

I sent the ship on a test run and it made it to Vulcanious just fine. It is sitting in orbit refueling and building up ammo, then I plan to send it back and start loading it up for the trip with me. I set up some circuit conditions on the ship so that it could be automated later.

Map based building is almost easier at this point since there isn’t the “can’t reach” problem. The main base is run completely on solar, but would make an Italian grandmother proud. (Downside of running a multiplayer map)

When someone from your social groups is having motorcycle, lawnmower, model airplane, tool or general home repair issues, do you give them your father’s number?

“please will you stop what you’re doing and come fix my x”

This actually happens quite frequently. It’s rare to leave a family party without a follow up appointment to look at a persons tech.

Thing is, 100% of the time people will understand if you say “I don’t really know very much about that particular thing I’m sorry.”

“Yeah but you know tech so you must just be sand bagging”

If you have HVAC, make sure the filter is replaced regularly and try running a higher MERV filter.

How fast can it make the Kessel Run?

Well done. Now you have all that extra space in the fridge for left overs. Who keeps their salt and flour in a fridge? A monster, that’s who, but who am I to judge.

If you mean the French Foreign Legion, they don’t forgive crimes, but they will allow you to join with minor crimes.

I’m also considering getting a full electric car, but have a little range anxiety mixed with a general feeling that the improvements over the next couple years will make current electric cars obsolete, so I am following along with this thread!

Unfortunately, pretty normal.

Datto does have a service where it restore the daily backup to a VM and boot it to make sure it gets to the login screen, has that been running?

Cinnamon twists!

Crunchy, sweet, pleasantly dry!
