Anyone know a good v81 "scrap keeper" mod?

Planning on playing some LC on lower player counts and from what I remember the game is basically in hardcore mode without a mod that lets you keep your scrap after a TPKO. I've been searching for such a mod and can't seem to find any that work on v81, any suggestions for what you do?

How do we mod now in v80?

Heya all,

So been getting back into the game, specifically modded lethal. Created a modpack, and it's a glitchy mess. Quota countdown not working, terminal not working, levels not loading, and when I finally removed mods so the game was barely vanilla and it looked like everything was working, we got a crash whenever we try to fly off of a moon. So how do we mod nowadays? v80 and v81 have been out for a while now so I thought that all the major mods would now be fixed, but that seems to not be the case. Maybe it's an issue on my end, I'm using Linux Mint and that may have something to do with it. But anyway, any help with this? I've been using r2modman's built-in mod browser, is that the problem? Should I just be using Thunderstore instead? Could it be worth rolling back LC version, and if so how? What are you doing to make your modpacks run on recent versions? I know I'm asking a lot of questions here but if you'd like to share your advice please lemme know what you have to say.

How should I prepare for a PhD?

(copied from r/ phd after the mods said posting it here would be more appropriate)

Hi all,

Brief background about my current situation. Studied an integrated master's degree in mathematics, UK based as a UK citizen. First year had difficulties relating to fitting into university life but survived (thankfully first year doesn't count to my total grade, second year mostly good but still struggling to fit into university, third year was absolutely perfect, loved doing my mini research project for it, fourth year absolute trainwreck but still got through. As I love my field I was dead certain on doing a PhD after my master's however having struggling with a lot of stuff that is often done in a PhD like researching and writing up reports I had to make the unfortunate decision that a PhD wasn't right for me at the time. Since then I've been looking for work for the past year with no results as of yet. Whilst I'm in my unemployment arc and active job searching is getting me nowhere, I am strongly considering using this time to work on myself to overcome my difficulties and be PhD ready. I've exchanged some ideas with ChatGPT (I know, cringe, but I wanted some bad answers quickly) to think them through on how to prepare. I've considered doing a small report very similar to the project done consisting of 25% of marks in my third and fourth year, and once I've gotten that done I'll contact my previous PT for advice and a reference. Is this a good way to prepare? What are your thoughts?
