...aren't people generally not allowed to disturb the peace or otherwise inconvenience other citizens on their own, or public, property in the process of securing their own? A siren that is rather likely to go off for false alarms and is loud enough to be heard by unrelated people in their own homes really sounds like it's only allowed via double-standard.

It'd be rather amusing if NMS lasts for exactly 16 of some obscure unit of a large amount of time.

I could use those tips on resolving the big quests. I thought they didn't end for years.
So, I've managed to find an OK location for a base, not sure if I'll actually build it out yet, and rebuilt my freighter base but in the process I've put down a BeatByte Device, found it had ... something on it from the last time I was playing and realized I still don't know anything about music. It'd be nice to have something playing in my freighter rather than just the ambient sounds from some of the things I've put in it but I remember how well trying to do it by stabbing about in the dark went last time. I'd rather not. So, anyone else not musically inclined? What do you do with the Beatbyte?

Thanks, I have a rough idea of the kind of place I want it to be but I'm probably going to compromise on it if too many other people have the same idea;
Paradise World or similar low Life Support using world with low/no storms. Area including a dial-gate for checking on interesting places with minimal additional effort and to give me more inclination to put effort into what the place looks like; anyone could dial my base and check it out.
For the most part I have the things I need on this save. I have a Bioship in progress... all the pieces ready just having an issue with the gates that I don't remember what it was anymore. Regardless I use a Sentinel Interceptor, also S Class, for my primary vessel. Overcharged sentinel cannon shreds just about everything :D

I've got tiny mining outposts in several places that are just EM towers, mining platforms, storage, and a room with a portal. Then I've got an industrial grow op with different plants on different floors with the correct number of plants on each floor that I can harvest what I need for a Fusion Ignitor with minimal excess.
Then I've got my freighter. Out of all of them it's probably got the most effort put into it; It's an S-Class Pirate Dreadnaught... with a pretty ehh amount of storage, but I'm working on that. I've got a little cabin aboard the ship with a grow op for some plants that I don't recall why I had them planted. And of course the ground vehicle teleporter and the storage rooms.
Thanks for the tip, I'll try to do more missions so I've got reasons to potentially find good locations.
Just booted up the game again after a significant time away and figured I'd try doing something new; building a more robust base rather than something that's just practical. Thing is I'm used to searching only on the basis of practicality. So, how do you find nice locations to build something aesthetically pleasing rather than just fit for purpose?

Oh in the American Dystopia they've abandoned the 'love each other' part. They still pay lip-service to the notion of loving families but absolutely no maintenance is put into it.
Rather they attack all forms of birth control such that if one uses sex to cope with the dystopian conditions, at all, there's a likelihood you will be saddled with the economic burden of children. Doesn't matter if it was a one-night-stand or if neither party is rationally old enough to be effective parents... hell traumatized kids may be even less effective at forming effective resistance to their power.
Honestly, that's not enough for replacement, let alone population growth, and they know it. I'm certain they're going to resort to even more dystopian methods as they have demonstrated not just a lack of care for Human decency but active contempt for the concept.

My take on AI use is that because it's being used to try and replace skilled labor using it, and therefore helping to train it, is bad in most cases. If it were the case that it was not being used that way than I'd have no issues with it.

I know at least two who'd even take tRump losing in a landslide not as them actually being a minority. Mango Mussolini has put a lot of work into corroding faith in the electoral system such that they can believe that he won just like they can believe that Christ is coming back some day.

Thanks! I'll go hunting for it later, hopefully it doesn't take me too long.
Hello everyone; I've found a melee weapon I've really been enjoying, the Tatsu Prime. However I don't have it's only stance mod, Wise Razor, and checking the wiki it's only obtainable through random transmutation or hunting Coolant Racknoids. Has anyone hunted this mod down recently? What's the grind like for acquisition? Any tips on doing so?

The God of the Christians?
Time's killing it just as it does everyone. Not only is the vile religion diminishing currently but the claimed miracles of the fabled monster are also diminishing with time.
- In true Last Thursdayism fashion they claim the universe was created by the beast six millennia ago.
- 2 millennia later he demonstrably lost, if he ever had to begin with, the traits of omniscience and omnipotence. As demonstrated by taking a rash action, regretting it, and not undoing it.
- At some point he's developed a weakness to iron as stated by spaceghoti.
- Nowadays his grand "miracles" are causing light breezes, or small amounts of rain, or stopping either... things Humans are entirely capable of doing.
As for how to accelerate the death of this monster? Take a page from the countries that have done the best at wounding it so far: Raise general quality of life, not just education, for all the people of your society. It feeds on suffering, so we should starve it out.

I see faith and religion confused a lot.
Fair enough, I have been using them interchangeably. I suppose given your position that's inaccurate. Our positions differ quite a bit, I'm an antitheist and materialist/physicalist.
which - fair, you can make inferences and guesses, but we're still not able to know for certain what someone else is thinking.
My point here is just the opposite. It isn't inferences or guesses, we can tell from brain activity that what's going on falls within a certain range. We have yet to refine this ability to tell detailed specifics but we're not guessing A * B = G, we can use our modern tools and understanding to determine that G is within the range of D through J. Prior to the development of the current tools and methods we had a wider range and prior to the development of any such tools we were guessing and making inferences.
Heisenberg's Uncertainty Principle would be an example I'd agree to of something unknownable: the set of both the precise location and momentum of a particle. However as of yet I am unaware of any reason or mechanism by which this unknowable is impactful to any sapient entity... except those specifically studying it.
As-is I find the unknowables that I am aware of, the Uncertainty Principle, whether or not we're in a simulation, and so on so be inconsequential on the scale we operate on. We have a perceived reality that behaves according to rules that are determinable and practical utility can be derived from determining them.
my view is that we all act on some degree of faith
I don't think I can contest this. At least not at the moment after having had a long day. In any case I think this point is where we likely differ quite a lot; I strive to take nothing on faith. To whichever extent that I do I want it to be less or at least driven past the point of functional irrelevance to the operation of my life.
Nothing to do with the faith/spirituality of the individual, a LOT to do with the biases of whatever leadership your in group has.
I suppose the authors of their scripture would count even though they have limited relation to living leaders of their religion.

I don't think that's necessarily the case. We can determine to some degree what's going on in the mind of other people without having faith in their self-report, it's just impractical to do to everyone or frequently; FMRI can show us their brain activity and we already have a reasonable sense of what the different bits of brain do. Would we be able to get fine specifics of their thoughts from it? No, not yet but given that out ability to detect and measure has a general tendency to improve with time I believe that it is a 'yet' and not an 'if' barring Extinction Level Events.
Could you elaborate on the second point? I don't see cause to have faith regarding that subject. We don't have all the knowledge about the subject but neither would we know, for example, the exact ordering of a deck of cards immediately after a thorough shuffle. We know enough that we're not going to see an Ace of Fives if we shuffled a standard deck and we'll be able to determine the order they are in if we pay attention.
Most of the faithful that I know personally aren't involved with a governing body of their faith. They still use it to be bigots. When pressing them on the issue I've yet to get a response as to why they're bigots other than their faith. They have, or at least are aware of, secular reasons to be good and kind but not when being bigoted in some ways (they have secular reasons for the kinds of bigotry their faith opposes).

- Thanks.
- The differentiation I used wasn't my own words, I got it from here, I figured I shouldn't go off just my own take. I suppose I should have specified that from the beginning.
- I suppose there's a case to be made for that.
- I don't see how you've got that I have an extreme position from 'Religions are faith-based while philosophies are based in some logical argumentation.'
- Noted. I suppose I could try to find something not abhorrent about faith. I've long since stopped being angry about it but I'm still very much an Antitheist.

I don't intend this to be harsh or negative but I don't know how to phrase this nicely;
Secular Humanism is a philosophy, not a religion. Religions are faith-based while philosophies are based in some logical argumentation. The muddling of religion with philosophy linguistically serves only to tarnish philosophy and lend undue credence to religion. That language is so flexible can be beneficial but it can equally be detrimental when used like this.

Honestly? I'm probably going to have at-least one bundle on me all the time once this comes out and I start playing again. I think they're going to be pretty useful... and I never end up playing a world long enough to have an Enderchest full of Shulkers.
Going on the advice I've gotten recently for getting the last few MR ranks I'm trying to vary my loadouts every so often and just remodded a weapon I enjoy but rarely use: The Javlok I know it's not great but I enjoy it. I figured it'd be fun to hear what everyone's pet weapons are. What weapons, if any, do you keep around that aren't powerful but you enjoy them?
Hello everyone, I've been trying to work through my remaining MR fodder. I've picked a few things off my remaining unmastered list and started trying to acquire them... only problem is these things have proven unexpectedly difficult/annoying to get. So, is there a resource somewhere to allow for quick differentiation based on ease of acquisition? I've got few enough things on the list I could probably fit the set of all weapons I haven't mastered yet into 3-4 screenshots if that'd help. Edit: Was asked for the screenshots:      Took a bit more than I thought. While I was at it also took a few of the other things that give MR:     I have Tatsu Prime & Citrine building but otherwise I think the screenshots show a pretty accurate listing of what I still need to put effort into.
Just finished maxing out my Railjack Build and recalled that it at least appeared to be that Railjack was an underappreciated game mode. So, does anyone like it now? How've you built your railjack? Do you use Lavos when doing Railjack or manufacture energy as-needed?
Is there a way to stop the mad ramblings of Liches while I'm hunting them? It's sometimes entertaining but there's too many Lich personalities that are just grating, and I've most definitely got one of those now while I'm just trying to get a new weapon to wring the MR from.
Hello everyone, Finally managed to get a modded world stable enough to have a few large machines running and enjoy their use, including an autonomous concrete factory. With that I've built some walls and then realized I don't have any real experience with modern architecture... so I've got a giant white brick surrounding my machines. Honestly, I'm not used to building on this scale either so I'm not sure how to make this look nice on multiple fronts. One thing I do know though; I don't like glass curtain-walls so I'd rather not do that for this building in spite of it certainly being big enough.  Any ideas?
Hello everyone, Just did a few missions on the Zariman and remembered a post from here or back on the old subreddit talking about some people still never using Operator mode. So I figured it'd be interesting to hear what people think about it and how much they've invested into it: - Do you use Operator/Drifter mode any more than absolutely necessary? - If so do you prefer the Drifter or Operator? - How much effort have you put into your Amp(s)? - Have you built several with significantly different behaviors? [Ex one a flamethrower, one a grenade launcher etc] - Do you use Operator &/or Amp Arcanes? - If so which ones? - If so have you raised them to maximum rank? - What Focus School do you main? - Is it the school you started with? - How far into it are you? - Have you used other schools? - If so have you unbound anything from them? - What would you say your primary method of getting Focus is? - Do you like that method? - Compared to your main Warframe how effective is Operator Mode for you? - Compared to an average Warframe how effective is Operator Mode for you? - Is there any stand out utility of the mode for you? - What would you say your general opinion of the mode is?
Hello everyone, My friends and I would like to play a modded world together now that we've found 'The Essentials' mod which allows us to circumvent our previous issues with multiplayer. However we've had some issues with finding good modpacks. None of us are experts so we've just been trying ones we've found. We've mostly tried 'Create on a Potato PC Ultimate' and 'Create: Arcane Engineering'. Create on a Potato PC was/is great but we have a minor crashing issue. Arcane Engineering integrates the mod so much it makes trying to primarily work with one frustrating. My friends have also tried Create Chronicals and found it to just be altogether too much. What we're looking for is a pack with Create (addons desired but not needed) and an in-depth magic mod like Botania or Ars Magica. Any suggestions?
Besides Viral Damage and status chance, obviously. I've been slowly wringing all the MR out of my favorite primer, my Kuva Nukor, and I've gotten to the point where I'm not sure if my mod selections are quite worth the slot... and I've got plenty of capacity to work with.  This is my current build. To me the point is that it applies max stacks of Viral ASAP, as an added bonus it's Kuva element is Radiation which prevents buffing enemies from doing much of anything. As is unless I'm on SP the Nukor can and will kill most enemies quite efficiently. So, what do you do with a Viral Primer once it primes Viral with all the gusto is can? Edit: Taking all the suggestions here's what I've got:  This is looking pretty awesome now.
Just finished building the Hespar and slapped a build from Overframe on it... I didn't use to have a favorite melee weapon beyond what looked nicest strapped to my hip. I didn't really use melee much. Hespar w Galeforce Down is now my favorite. Love the wide swings and quick forward advance letting me carve through hordes with minimal effort. Might just have to put together a loadout using all my favorite things now since there's enough to fill all slots.
So, a friend of mine and I just went two for two on frustrating experiences: SP Interception is just frustrating for the two of us. We struggle to clear all the gits from the capture points between their high health and constantly streaming in. In general we can each take and hold a point then potentially hold a third long enough to gain the lead. However, the Acolyte then spawns in and annoys us long enough to lose the lead, mostly through trolling with their abilities. I have a Kuva Lich and my friend has a Sister of Parvos as our On Call Crewmen but neither of us have put any work into optimizing them, they're both just more-or-less the first thing we spared rather than killed. I also summon Kahl and his support units while my friend calls Ancient Healers (they prefer a different Air Support). I know my Lich isn't optimal, it uses one of the less impressive Kuva variant guns, the Quartakk, and only has one power that's noticeably helpful: their version of Hollowed Ground. Their SoP Crewman is similarly unimpressive but I don't recall the specifics. Both of us need better help. So, what should we be looking for in terms of the best support for SP missions?
Just killed my current Lich and got the Kuva Nukor, and now I'm wondering how it will compare to the Tenet Cycron for Priming. This is their comparison on the equip screen:  Anyone have experience with both weapons? Which would you say is generally better for the job? Of note: I don't do collision overload and rarely melee in general.
Just finished the Steel Path and got all the Bobbles!  Arranged them as an homage to the pre-Orbiter mission select screen. The Deimos bobble isn't clearly visible but it's there between Mars and Phobos. The Zariman Bobble is unfortunately out of frame on my Pedestal Prime.
Am I lucky for once in my life or is Dante a really eazy grind? I just got half of Dante and ~130 pity points in one run then finished off the pps on a single C rotation. So with less than an hour of work I've got the new frame under construction.
Hello everyone, I recently looked up how to make autonomous courier drones and realizing how easy they are I decided it was well past time to try branching out into using remote control and drones more. So, I've engineered this little thing to serve as a drone outpost. The intent being that it'll host a mining drone and a courier so that the whole kit can be deployed to a location by a valuable resource. Being my first drone vessel I wanted to see what other people thought of it while I'm still prototyping. I've got two custom turrets that hold a folding solar panel system, slapped some O2 generators on it just in case a manned vessel is running low and near one. I've got a gyro and RC on it along with forward and rearward facing cameras. It occurred to me that I'm using Hydrogen thrusters and as such have to have facilities for ice processing and storage but I tend to struggle to find platinum.   
Hello everyone, Doing a bit more work on the big carrier I'm designing to use with a friend and I've sealed up the hangar-areas but now I've got a new problem: I've got a 23 block long door that could potentially vent a painful amount of oxygen into space. I don't want to scrap the door because I think it's cool (and very loosely taking inspiration from the Venator Class Star Destroyer from Star Wars), and I think it'll be reasonably 'practical' way of handling the positioning of the hangars. So I'm considering two fixes: 1. Either keep this section depressurized always but allow the hangars to pressurize or 2. Build a system such that the big area will decompress via vents before the door opens. I think Option 2 would be better but I really don't know how to do much in the way of automation and the airlock videos I've seen seem to rely on timer blocks which would mean that I'd need to time the depressurization of a massive room... Is there any way I can just detect when the pressure is at 0% or some other workaround? Any guidance on this problem would be very helpful. Also for context the room this door is to is a bit above 11,250 cubic meters in volume. Getting an accurate measurement is a little difficult do to an irregularly shaped device I've built in it. I'm having a hard time finding rates for things when I go looking so I'm not sure how many vents I'd need to depressurize this in a reasonable period of time.
Hello everyone, My friend and I are moving on to trying to seal parts of the ship for spaceflight now that our production system works and have started hitting the problem of leaks we can't find. I recall being told there's a mod to make this much less difficult when I had this problem on my single-player world but never went for it... I figure it'd make things smoother on multiplayer but now I can't recall the mod's name. Anyone know which mod that likely was?
