and the curve mode is amazing too, especially for aligning stuff with rails

When I get the golden nut, I suppose.

This is my second world, but only because my first world was too haphazard for my tastes, whole parts weren't aligned to the world grid.

Over 100m tall for the main tower

Thanks! I used walls to measure out the height each floor then built out the platforms, I used the jetpack and the hoverpack to be able to get the heignt required.

My pc is a fairly recent midrange so I haven't had too many performance issues yet.

I'm back after a pretty long break! You might remember my oil rig from a few months ago.

The factory turns 1800 iron ore, 750 limestone and 1000m3 of water into 20 heavy modular frames every minute.

The long building is 50 iron refineries, and the tower is most of the rest.

anyways, here are some more photos of the outside:

The refinery building is pretty funky as you can see:

There is also a battery storage unit, an antenna and some concrete refinieries:

Here are some photos of the inside of the main building:

I am especially proud of the load balancers in the back that turn the various amounts of iron on each conveyor into 6 full ones and one partway full one.

While the materials are acquired on-site, this site is still connected to the rail network I showed in the last post.

Anyways, I learned quite a bit from this project, especially that I should plan interior decor ahead of time, instead of winging it.

Here is the map of my world, the pictured factory is at the top:

Tell me what you think!

Good look! Might I suggest it would look better with the pocket logo being next to the "Get off pocket" text instead of below.

Except you have to memorize all of those conversions one by one instead of just remembering 1=1000 because imperial was invented by a drunk mathematician rolling dice.

Walkability is also a thing in cities like montreal where we got 70cm of snowfall in 4 days (30 inches for you) last winter, so kindly stop using your american weather as an excuse.

I was hoping it would be obvious enough for me to not have to explicitly point it out, guess not.

New brunswick (canadian province near maine) here, it's also called a weed whacker (and sometimes weed eater)

The gameplay is (apparently) also quite good, tbf.

Local shopping street in the city of Montréal, It's the beginning of the summer here, and more and more streets are being closed to cars every summer (although they're reopened during the cold Canadian winters), the difference in the amount of people there now vs last week when it was still open to cars is absurd.

Even more people! Lil stand

Since It's the beginning of the summer there was a marching band to celebrate, which was nice.

Businesses set up stands where they sold stuff, offered free samples and stuff like that, and there was also seating and games set out for kids, like a bouncy castle, some (mini) mini-golf courses and a mini skate park.

Just closing the street to cars made the space much nicer, and there were way more people there than when the street was open to cars.

I'm not the guy who's been posting screenshots for 315 (!) days now, but I just got lies of P from a giveaway (Thanks again @[email protected]), and i wanted to talk about it.

It's a souls-like, so this "review" might not make much sense if you haven't played one.

So, i just completed the tutorial zone, having beaten the first boss on my first try, and i have a few thoughts:

Combat:

They nailed it, the weapons are satisfying to use and the parry system is super satisfying, I've barely used the dodge, if at all. It kind of feels like a mix of elden ring and sekiro, but also with a lot of unique elements like the weapon durability and critical hit system that forces you to mix in the heavy attacks to get criticals.

The World:

The "La belle epoque" aesthetic mixed with the steampunk-y tech of Krat (the city the game takes place in) is beatiful, and the graphics, while impressive looking, don't tank my fps, which is nice. The game does a good job justifying it's souls-like mechanics (bonfire, leveling, ect...) The story hasn't had much time to develop at my point in the game, but the intrigue of what happened to the puppets (main enemies in the game) to make them all start attacking people and the mystery of what/who the main character is has me hooked already (I also like the pinnochio elements!) The puppet designs are interesting, especially the first boss, I'm hopeful the devs will be able to keep it up throughout the full game.

The level design:

Worst part of the game so far, and by that I mean still good, It's just everything else is better. It's kind of linear and doesn't feel as natural as From Software games.

------------

Overall I really like it so far, and by far it's my favorite non-fromsoft souls-like. I'm happy I'm playing completely blind, thanks to not having to look at reviews to know if i should buy it.

Bonjour! Je suis un citoyen français et canadien (droit de sang et de naissance, respectivement) qui vit actuellement au Québec.

Je veux déménager en France après avoir obtenu mon equivalence de BAC, pour aller a l'Université et puis rester travailler.

Je pense pas que j'aurais trop de problèmes sur le plan de l'integration, car j'ai l'accent français (genre bordeaux) et j'ai passé plusieurs étés a la teste avec ma famille la-bas.

Par contre, je me rends bien compte que je connais mal la France (et mon père n'y vis pas depuis longtemps), alors je voudrais une perspective française sur mes choix:

Je pense vivre a Montpellier, vu que je suis un sale wokiste qui ne veux pas posséder de voiture, et parce que j'entends que c'est une ville universitaire avec beacoup de jeunes. Le fait que c'est direct sur la méditerranée ca aide aussi. Après mes études je planifie travailler en informatique, mais je n'ai aucune idée de l'etat du marché de travail en france.

Je reconnais que c'est un peu flou comme plan, mais je veux demander si c'est une bonne idée avant de faire trop de recherches. Si vous avez des questions je vais faire de mon mieux pour répondre.

Merci en avance (j'espère) ! Et désolé si cette publication irait mieux sur /c/france.

Stuff like a pretty case with slots for optical drives, a laptop with a shitton of ports and all-day battery life or anything else that seems to go against the trends.

This thread is for complaining about how you can't find it and (maybe) finding it thanks to someone else.

I want to get a head start on the technique d'informatique college course i am going to take next (school) year, and i figured comptia A+ is as good a place as any to start.

The title is self-explanatory, but i would like to add i would much prefer a book than a video. I am fine with paying for it, but then it would have to be physical. Video recommendations are also welcome though, because they could help anyone else who is asking themselves the same thing.

<>Mods, please remove this if it isn't open-ended enough

Wayland and audio is fixed, but only on the canary branch for the moment, this isnt lazy either, they changed the whole screenshare flow to suit linux's permission prompts

I want to setup a bunch of laptops to be web kiosks, I'll organize my wants into a list so that it's easier to skim:

  • Open a version of Firefox with the normal ui, tabs and all.
  • Automatically enters a session with no user input on reboot
  • Doesn't allow doing anything but interacting with Firefox (kinda obvious, kiosk and all)
  • Auto-login
  • Automatic updates, with them being applied on restart
  • Firefox settings reset on reboot

Nice to haves:

  • nice Plymouth screen to hide the scary code on startup.
  • completely block any attempts to change configuration on Firefox
  • ad-block
  • easy deployment to a bunch of machines.

If these sound like pretty strict requirements, they are, I'm doing this to attempt to get an internship by making my school's web kiosk laptops not suck (they currently run a janky install of Ubuntu 18.04)

Any help would be greatly appreciated, and I'd be glad to add more information.
