“This shit isn’t designed to come out fucky”

What about Unicron, but pre-destruction? He’s basically planet sized.

Would I know everything I know now? Cause if not, then what’s the point? I might as well be a completely different person (because I would be).

If I do know everything I know now, then would I retain that intelligence if I was another creature? Like could I come back as a chimpanzee with my full current intellect? What about an octopus?

Could I come back as a 90 year old billionaire’s only heir, and be born with my complete current knowledge? Then I can just use the cash to help people?

Since this is fantasy anyway, could I come back as a Viltrumite? What about a Kryptonian?

Could I be Cthulhu?

Could I just be me, but reborn with my current information?

WHAT ARE THE RULES???

Well, if LTT is involved, then I probably want nothing to do with it.

Damn, that’s pretty sweet. Nice job on the setup.

Yup, sometime in the next year or two I’ll get laid off, then I’ll just mooch off my spouse.

FYI, in case anyone is running 7.2.1, just be aware that you have to MANUALLY update because you need to agree to new terms that removes local hardware processing of some media types.

7.2.2-72806 Update 1 is the update with the new patches.

If you’re running Plex locally (i.e. - not in docker) you’ll need to manually install the updated 7.2.2 patch. You need to download it locally, then push it back up to your NAS bypassing the normal process. You can’t use the plex client to prompt the update, and you can’t use the synology package manager to update.

The package links on Reddit and some other sites are older versions that may not install

If you’re running home assistant, you can put some inline power monitoring plugs in. I like the thirdreality ones, cause you can set them to “default on” or “default off” after power failure and run it as a zigbee local network without requiring internet access.

Oof, that’s a lot of juice.

I’m running a UPS, Syno720+, old gaming laptop as a portainer host, my wifi, router, cable modem, and switches, and that’s only using about 50w for everything. Pretty sure the Synology is using the bulk of that power, but I don’t have data to back that up.

I’d like to upgrade a few things, but I’m really trying to keep it below 75w. Ideally below 50w if I can. I think my old laptop is good for now, just want more flexibility in my NAS if I can do it without bumping up the power budget.

Any idea what your power consumption is for the 1618? I currently have a 720, but with only two drives it’s kind of limiting for HDD upgrades.

There’s a saying you might want to get familiar with

“If everywhere you look, all you see is assholes, maybe you’re the asshole.”

D) Move manufacturing and other dirty processes off planet and live here.

According to a US Army study, Iron and Tungsten could create galvanic action, causing both materials to degrade if in contact.

So at first glance, it seems like this combo wouldn’t last as long as it could with just Tungsten.

Stardew Valley/Concerned Ape has a policy of fixing saves personally.

If you use a web email account, just create a draft email and don’t send it. Then log into your email account on the other device and read it there.

That removes any association with the original picture without relying on any exif stripping that might miss a hash or weird embedded info.

Just like anything else, one chunk at a time.

You can start with a story and build the game off of that, or you can start with the gameplay and build up from there.

Sometimes you just have to start, and see where it goes. Pick an engine and start building something, don’t be afraid to throw it all out and start over from what you’ve learned so far. Make a game that has some of the elements you want to use and try it out, then throw it out and make a different game with other bits. Start small and work up.

The biggest problem is thinking it has to be perfect to move on to the next part.

You can commission art, or you can buy some models and just use those.

You can also just build everything from the ground up, but it would be hard to do that for your first project.
