It's a difficult time, and I am also struggling with issues around feeling defeated. However, a friend shared something with me that's really been helping. It's a lovely passage from a write up about hope, written during the height of the COVID-19 pandemic. The entire article is well worth the read, but I'll quote the particular passage below: https://lawliberty.org/j-r-r-tolkien-and-the-necessity-of-hope/#:~:text=After%20Gandalf%20and%20Pippin%20arrive,rightly%20anticipating%20what%20may%20be.

"After Gandalf and Pippin arrive in Minas Tirith, Beregond, one of the men of Gondor, explains, “Hope and memory shall live still in some hidden valley where the grass is green.” Hope may thus be drawn from what has been, as a means of rightly anticipating what may be."

People who don't know about it because it's not widely reported.

Apples work well on white pizza as well. Perhaps OP only tried with red sauce, which I imagine wouldn't be very good.

But indeed there's a local pizza place around where I live that does a simple olive oil base topped with creamy cheese, tart apples, arugula, and drizzled with balsamic glaze. It's utterly fantastic

Glad I could help you guys!

The biggest reason I switched to coal was actually just for more power output. If you load balance biomass into generators efficiently, it's pretty easy to have upwards of a couple dozen of them. But they just don't output as much power as the coal generator upgrade.

Have you played 1.0 yet? You can automate a lot of the biomass process now that the main biomass burners (I.e. Not the ones attached to the hub) have conveyer belt inputs.

I basically set up two industrial storage bins at the beginning of a biomass production line, one for wood and one for leaves. Each bin feeds into a constructor that turns the associated raw resource into biomass. Then feed those biomass constructors into another constructor that makes solid biofuel. Finally hook that up to the generators and all you have to do is spend a few minutes every hour or so collecting leaves and wood to dump in the storage bins.

It's still enough work that automating coal is a huge priority, but it's not as tedious as it used to be at all.

They've been saying nodes could change and have been recommending a fresh start with 1.0 for months.

It sucks your new factory didn't work out, but this is what happens when you're playing an (formerly) early access game and you don't pay attention to patch notes.

Memes aside, since I've been on the internet long enough to know that this could legitimately be the first time someone's seen this information:

A brown recluse is a real spider endemic to the central United States. They are small, slender, and brown. Their bites are venomous and can require medical attention. In rare cases they can potentially be lethal, especially in young children.

Good luck!

GET YOUR HANDS OFF MY PENIS!

It was the bot setting... Thanks for pointing that out.

I guess I thought toggling that on meant I wanted to view bot posts, not that I was indicating this account as a bot account.

Thanks!

My posts here were negative for a short while so I'm guessing that was you.

I care less about the imaginary internet points and more about actually upvoting and downvoting things on small communities where one vote actually makes a big difference.
