If women have to be misandristic, then I’m quite happy to exclude bigots

They also turn a blind eye to misandry.

Yeah, in the water it’s a whole different story. They can outswim Micheal Phelps, and Mark Spitz as though those two were sitting still.

Gators are easy to deal with. Get them to bite a stick, they will. Once their jaws are closed, a 7 year old child could keep their jaws closed with some difficulty. A full grown adult can easily hang on to their jaws. Then you get a buddy or two to throw the thing back in the water.

They’re fast in the water, and can do really short sprints on land. More like repeated lunges, really. On land we are much faster and have a lot more endurance. Not saying you shouldn’t be careful, but unless you’re a kid or elderly, gators aren’t really a concern.

We don’t have crocodiles in North America, outside of zoos, thankfully. Those monsters are a pain to deal with, I assume, since I have never seen a video of drunk Egyptians or drunk Australians wrangling them. I have seen drunk Floridians wrangle gators in person, so I’m certain videos exist.

I don’t want to meet anyone that can successfully carry and then throw a cassowary. I’m 192 cm, and 61 kg, and I am certain that I couldn’t manage to restrain a cassowary to carry the thing, much less throw one. The weight isn’t the difficulty factor here, it’s the damn deinonychus looking feet, and beak that I’m worried about.

I thought AOL took down the server

With the update, even if you don’t have the DLC, fluids have been rebalanced. You just have to place a pump every 200-250 tiles and everything flows.

For oil specifically, you don’t need anything but petroleum until what used to be late game. So just build a few (like a dozen) refineries and make sure that there’s actually oil coming in.

Once you actually need lubricant, and light oil, set up chemical plants to turn heavy oil into lube and light oil, and light oil into petroleum. It won’t be fast, but it won’t clog and it will produce what you need, slowly. You can use storage tanks as a buffer for your lube, light oil, and petroleum. Heavy oil isn’t used as a direct input for any assembler recipe.

I consider myself a Factorio apprentice, as I have yet to actually set up a proper train system. I’m slowly learning circuit logic, but can get to Gelba without getting stuck.

Don’t stress optimization, brute force works as well.

According to my father, who is an absolute Epic Wizard level computer programmer consultant, Factorio teaches you the basics of computer programming.

I wonder if they’ll outlaw dousing

Not Constantinople,

No, but Redneck Rampage was also a popular game for the Ti-82

Lol, I would never make it as a public figure.

Thanks for the clarification!

TI-82 here. Thank fuck that I got out of HS in '96. The administration hadn’t caught on that we had Drug Wars, and a really shitty MechWarrior game floating around the school.

That sounds like a more accurate description of this town than its real name, lol

I have had a few people that I don’t remember meeting describe me as “the friendliest guy in IB.”

They used it as a defence in court. Multiple times. Something to the effect of “no reasonable person would believe they were being truthful/ serious.”

Edit: apparently this defence was only used for shows like O’Reilly and Tucker Carlson, not the whole channel. Personally I don’t think the average FN viewer would be able to discern the distinction, but who knows.

I must be a heck of a lot more “attractive,” than I think I am. I’m male, and 44 y/o. I get a random compliment from strangers about once every month or two.

It was a joke. We have invented fission and fusion, but the reactors are still attached it to a Rankine Cycle.

Also, the radius would be considerably larger than the sun. Perhaps not encapsulating The Earth, but that seems like a potential death sentence, if we built a Dyson Sphere rather than a Dyson Swarm

Not that I’m aware of. All our nuclear commercial power plants are just plain old nuclear energy boiling water. We’re gonna use a damn Dyson Sphere to boil water…

We have bombs that use a similar starting mechanism, but they aren’t exactly useful energy production.
