I’ve got about 15 hours into it so far (played from when it released into the wee hours of the morning) and the only bugs I came across so far was I’ve seen one person gliding across the ground instead of walking. IMO, this game is an absolute banger and masterpiece. Definitely a breath of fresh air to have a game work out of the box on the first minute

As someone who does VR in flight sims on one of the least optimized games (DCS) I can see the allure. Aside from that one niche though, I can’t think of many uses for a 90 series card though

That would be interesting! Admittedly I’ve no idea where I’d find bulk amounts of it though lol

I expect it to turn out very lemony. We’ll see how it goes. Distilling essential oils is the same process but I’m a bit iffy since I had to boil the lemon must for a bit to get it to fit my fermenter. It’s definitely one I want to try my hand at again, after finding something stupid to ferment as a meme again

Also shit, just was about to go back to the old comment you made on one of my older posts to give you an update but realized you commented here. Orange wine turned out fantastic! I’ll report back in the next few days on distilling the lemon wine, that ones got a strong flavor of pith on the beck end. Backsweetening it helped but, oddly, the orange wine is the winner without any back sweetening. It tastes very different from any other wine I’ve made, including the watermelon, but it’s quite nice. hopefully my girlfriend doesn’t notice I’ve been “sampling” lots of glasses since I tried it for “taste tests” since I told her one of the citrus wines was just for her lol

That’s a gorgeous bike! Weekends going alright, would be a lot better without snow or cold weather though lol

They’re tasty. After screwing around with back sweetening the lemon wine it seems the girlfriend prefers the orange wine. So I’ll have some nice lemon brandy in the next few days for myself!

Good question! All I can say is same strain of yeast, the orange abv is almost double the lemon with one week less of fermentation. I did not add baking soda or try to balance the acidity to either. Yeast is a resilient organism it seems.

Yeah hard thing is finding ones in English. Thankfully as an EU citizen irelands on the table for both of us lol

I’d love to! Do you guys happen to have any good cancer sciences PhD/doctoral programs? I’ve talked about moving to Ireland if my girlfriend loses her PhD program and I lose my job due to the politics, hardest part would be getting all our stuff over seas, and our 4 legged furry friend over lol

Oh I’m a huge fan of camping outside, even in the winters with freezing temperatures and snow out. But yeah wind sounds awful lol

Ooh that’ll be fun! And I completely get it. I’m a Polish citizen who hasn’t been back to the home country in ages, I definitely want to go back and also check out Prague while I’m there (sounds much more interesting than the US for the next few years). Sadly we don’t get much time off here

How is the trip by the way? I imagine it’s a blast. But also, definitely take some home with you, the orange wine isn’t as good as the watermelon I made a while back, but it’s definitely up there lol

You’re always welcome to swing on by if you come state side ever!

Take a trip out to Buffalo NY USA, though make it quick, they never last long 🤣

Let me know if that helps! I hope so since it was a pain for me that nobody suggested. I got frustrated with that one enough that I got a p1s but still decided to tear down the entire enter and put it together to see if it fixed the issue (it did) so I could give it to my buddy

If it’s a band one thing you can check is if the build plate is sufficiently torqued down. I spent ages chasing down a weird z issue, to the point where I converted my ender 3 z axis to being belt driven, and would still get really weird bands at certain heights. Turns out the bed was ever so slightly loose and at certain z heights would go into a tiny resonance frequency causing bands in the z axis. I’m not too familiar with the a1, but it’s a possibility that no matter what I researched I never saw mentioned

Usually I don’t boil fruits or anything. I did with my lemon wine (it turned it a dark brown color) because I had a gallon too much water in my must. so I boiled the oranges for a few minutes for consistency with my other citrus one. I’ll probably remake the orange brandy without boiling, depending on how the distillation goes.

One way to find out how it turns out! I’m usually big into trying terrible ideas (mmm flamin hot Cheeto fermentation) but sadly grapefruit is one of those flavors I can’t get behind no matter how many times I try lol
