Best I could find is the entire division makes about 35% profit and you’d have to assume some of that was YouTube
Revenue is not profit
As a native BrE speaker I’d say “I’ve X installed” is a little weird, fine in speech but written down it doesn’t look right. “I’ve installed X” is fine.
The last track sounds almost green and verdant but I think it’s too frenetic to be a peaceful and lush planet. Maybe one with white water rapids and fast moving water?
You don’t pay tax on growth, you do on dividends. For large shareholders a high dividend can be a problem. Even for me, a very small time retail investor, I have to keep a balance of growth (like Apple) and dividend (I tend to use a dividend ETF so I can fairly reliably estimate my dividends) so I can avoid paying tax on the dividends.
Small updates but I think the spidertron change is good, although I’m not overly enthused by the new name of the item.
This is going to be really complicated and that’s probably a good thing!
I’m glad they are renaming bulk/stack inserters but I worry the new flipping mechanic for oil refineries will break my brain :)
I would say it means strong but with an implied sadness, but you can have positive poignant memories too - you’d just have to state they were positive. The day I graduated from University was poignant because it was the end of an era and the start of another, but it doesn’t mean it is a sad memory.
Nonce as an insult is definitely used in British, although it has a very specific meaning so not something you’d casually call a friend (depending on the friend!)
Some good quality of life changes that seem obvious in retrospect - that’s still impressive to me considering how long they’ve been working on it!
This might make you sad but it was over a year ago! https://factorio.com/blog/post/fff-371 Time files! @bloopernova
I like to play the game in phases - first phase is to automate the digging of coal, iron, and copper, (stone too if I feel energetic) into chests.
Then comes electricity - get something like 8 iron, 4 coal, 2 copper, 1 stone mines going and smelting.
Then start on science - I usually aim for 8 factories for red and green which will feed a few science labs.
Personally I then get all the science I can and basically build another base around that base, stealing transport belts from the science factories and building a basic bus and expanding out to the remaining science colours.
Another phase is probably trains which means lots of iron production.
Another phase is robots which marks the need for oil and copper being important.
Then with the final sciences comes true scale, my first base is usually gone by this point.
Finally comes the rocket/spaceship and then time to start building my REAL base.
I don’t tend to worry about number of factories or science per second but will try to increase until I’ve filled a belt with inputs.
In the UK “the shopping” means food, groceries, and other essentials (although it can mean luxury items too). Giving phrases like “I’ll carry in the shopping” or “I’m going out for the shopping”.
So saying it’s expensive to be buying shopping is saying food, etc. is expensive.

No, most people who steal steaks are taking them to the pub and selling them for drugs or similar. Huge problem in the UK at least.
If you want baby shoes you steal baby shoes.
People taking fruit, cereal, milk… sure. But taking premium steaks, beer/wine/spirits, or anything else they can resell - no, that’s just theft.
Yep, although more for the aluminium than the steel!
