Factorio DEMO

Craig Perko got me into Factorio! He talked about cocaine and logistics, so that got me hooked (not literally, I'm CLEAN).

His comments on the game:

 

"A batch can be jumpstarted using an assembler and trash to make a few units of cocaine. From there you can easily split both fruit types into jam, then combine the jam into chicken nuggies, which can be made into vast amounts of cocaine.

 

The problem is, we can't simply combine everything into nuggies, because iron and copper require jam to get started, with a 2% success rate. So if we're doing iron/copper, we need to grind jam until we've seeded it, but we need the nuggies BEFORE it's seeded-"

It's Five O'Clock in New York City (Thanksgiving!)

"I'm Greg Gutfeld along with Kayleigh Mcaneny, Harold Ford Junior, Jesse Watters, and our thanksgiving table is a coaster. Dana Perino. This is the Five."

 

After dinner, do you go for a walk or take a nap?

 

Harold: We used to have a great touch football game as kids. Now my kids are getting old enough they would go in the back and do a run around.

Greg: Your life is like one big Newport commercial. A guy throwing a frisbee, another guy throwing a football.

 

Tetlin Junction's Forty Mile Roadhouse

 

When coming into Tetlin Junction from Tok, travelers would have to cross the Tanana River on the original, 1943 cantilever truss bridge. During the winter, the bridge would blend into the snowy surroundings quite easily due to its white hue. 

 

For better or for worse, Tetlin Bridge was replaced in the mid-2010s by a newer one located 200 feet north.

 

Around 2 miles from the bridge and where State Routes 2 and 5 (Alaska and Taylor Highways) meet, you can see what's left of the quaint Forty Mile Roadhouse. In its heyday, the lodge had 10 heated log cabins, a cafe, a Chevron station, and modern bathrooms. In addition to this, they offered a "complete garage service" consisting of warm storage for up to 25 cars, a 24-hour a day wrecker service, tires, accessories, and most importantly, vehicle repairs. 

Movie Premise

 Little towns and little houses. Interesting premise for a movie. Just the people are normal sized ones. Now with choppy dialogue!

 

"Mom, why house so tiny?"

"Don't know, child."

 

Bacon on grill, trees on fire in background.

 

"Today. Nice day grilling friends."

"Yes. Agree."

 

"Dis hot dog good."

"Glad."

 

Haven't worked out the physics sci-fi aspect yet, but it's getting there.
