Austria, you listening? Time to get the team back together, I think.
I'd be worried about insurance as a catch. Especially if you live somewhere like the USA.

It can but rarely; mostly it's a kidney thing.
Photosynthesis only uses a couple frequencies. Using solar to generate electricity and feed that into target LEDs can be significantly more efficient.
Burnaby isn't so bad as long as you're on a transit corridor. Granted it sucks outside those corridors though.

Get some aged eggnog started. I just used 36 yolks for my yearly batch.
Semi-related, it's ridiculous that there's no public transit route to Squamish and Whistler - only private shuttles. Squamish is becoming a bustling commuter town and the Sea-to-Sky traffic is getting more choked every year. BC Transit REALLY needs to set up regular service. Maybe re-activate the fucking train line.
Seconded. Great rice. Excellent flexible do-everything-reasonably-well appliance.
Not only misgendering and not knowing anything, but for me the cherry was the fact that the only thing TFG could think to say about generic_woman was ... that she was hot. What a stupid go-to. Not smart, savvy, interesting... no, she is obviously hot. That is the best compliment.
Unfuck that guy.
Probably thinking of Nikki Minaj or something.

I don't think that is necessarily out of the running yet. OS development is expensive and low profit. Commodification may be inevitable. Control of the shell and GUI, where they can push advertisements and shovelware and telemetry on you, that is profitable.
So in 20 years, 50? I predict proprietary OSes will die out eventually, balance of probability.
They also tend to have linux support. Where the AAA companies want to eat the entire mammoth and scorn the scraps, small companies can thrive off of small prey and the offal. :)
True, though it might be a temporary advantage to create an acute crisis at a key time. Something to keep in the back pocket maybe. NCD stuff.
As subject. In Gastown, a plane flew over putting out rainbow contrail. Why? O_o

Part Five of the Expansion Pass DLC for THE LONG DARK Survival Mode adds the Cougar, Misery Mode, Sundered Pass Region, and more features & content + bug fixes!
The next part of TALES features the Cougar, Cheat Death, Misery Mode, and a new Region!
Splitsie's Scrapyard Engineers scenario is pretty great, I've been enjoying it, and if you haven't tried it, it's worth a crack.
The concept is that you basically don't get refiners or assemblers, and only a limited number of blocks you can make. Everything else, you have to find from wreckage strewn about the landscape. The goal is to get to space.
In addition to the base modpack, I strongly recommend Improvised Experimentation. The author also recommends it, but tunes down the carry weight so that you have to use cranes more. I didn't, but a crane is still extremely useful.
Apologies for the English, my monolingualism is entirely my own fault at this point.
The tldr: my grandmother grew up during WW2 in the occupied Netherlands, and migrated to Canada in the 1950s in her 20s.
She is likely in the stages of early dementia, and one of the recommendations for dementia patients is to find music that they'd likely enjoyed as teenagers or young adults. I'd like to see if I can find something that fits that rough description. I expect I can make do with the English catalogue of classic rock and country from that time, but it'd be nice to find something a little different.
Can someone make any broad recommendations for popular Dutch music from the 1950s? Ideally, something I can find in mp3 format, but I'm willing to spend some money.

Survivors, the September Dev Diary includes information on an upcoming Quality of Life, new details on Part Four of TALES FROM THE FAR TERRITORY, and more.
A relaxing morning (Day 520) cooking in the airfield. I've found the control hut to be the best spot for it: the sheltered place between the two buildings shields you from the wind from two directions, and the opened doors mean that if the wind blows straight through from either direction, at least two fires will keep going.
Personally, I don't bother to repair my (Interloper) gear until it hits about 70% condition. I feel that reaches a good balance between keeping gear in good condition and not feeling like I'm wasting cloth/hides. If I have more than (say) two bearhides or four deerhides around, I'll repair earlier. And of course rabbithides are super easy to get and renewable, so I try to keep those above 90%.
Of course, I have a lot of cloth laid up now, and beachcombing is a fairly reliable source, so maybe 70% is too low. Should I go to 80%?
Clothing issue, in my opinion: The moose cloak doesn't have much practical use in difficult game modes. It doesn't really win on any useful metric. Pretty much every Interloper player goes for double bear coats.
Bearskin Coat: 6C warmth, 5C wind, 80% water resist, 20% protection, -20% mobility, 5kg. 1.20C/kg inner slot, 2.20C/kg outer slot. Wolfskin Coat: 4C warmth, 4C wind, 60% water resist, 12% protection, -15% mobility, 3kg. 1.33C/kg inner slot, 2.67C/kg outer slot. Moose Cloak: 3.5C warmth, 4C wind, 90% water resist, 20% protection, -10% mobility, 4kg. 1.875C/kg outer slot only.
For the outer slot, the wolfskin coat has the best temp/kg, and the bearskin has the highest raw boost (11C). For the inner slot, the wolfskin coat has the best temp/kg, and the bearskin again has the highest raw boost.
Water resistance, wind resistance, and protection are fully irrelevant for the inner slot. Water resistance is irrelevant unless you travel during a blizzard, which is fairly easy to avoid, and the high water resistance of a bear coat makes it almost as good as a moose cloak. Protection is generally never worth optimizing for, unless you plan to get in struggles, but the bear coat matches the moose cloak.
I've never used a moose cloak, since for only one extra kilogram, you gain 3.5 degrees of extra warmth on the outer slot, one of the best bargains in the game, only losing 10% water resist and 10% mobility.
So how do we make the moose coat useful? Some ideas:
- Nerf the bear coat's water resist. Make it much more likely to get soggy.
- Buff the moose cloak's weight. If it was 3kg, the weight ratio would be 2.5, making it more weight-efficient than the bear coat, almost as warm as the wolf coat, but substantially more water-resistant and slightly better for mobility and protection. It would then be at least a sidegrade for the wolfcoat, and might make sense in some situations.
- Make the moosecoat more appealing. Give it say 3.0C warmth and 8.0 wind, so that it matches the bearcoat for the outside slot. Then, the moosecloak-bearhide combo would be the same, but 1kg lighter, and it would add additional logistical challenges for survival, forcing you to bag the odd moose in addition to the bears.
A couple observations:
- Sewing needs some kind of quality buff. The percentage condition boost you get from repairing is almost always partly wasted, and higher levels only increase the wastage.
- The amount of effort needed to get to level 5 mending merits a much better reward. In Interloper, you aren't ever going to be leaving your gear to 50% condition before repairing. I don't know what such a buff would look like. Maybe you use less cloth when you hit level 5, or maybe you can repair your gear to 120% instead of 100%.
- Sports socks are gold if you're just aiming for level 5. 0.10kg, and very fast repair time. Hoard them, haul them with you until you have level 5. You can consume a lot of cloth fast.

Any other good watches? I love this game for background atmosphere.
