I have four settlements, and recently went through the autophage story line. I just got invited to an autophage settlement, but when I go to claim it, I can't. Instead I see the text "Settlement control unavailable. Maximum settlements reached".
Is there a way for me to renege control of another settlement? I thought I'd seen this before, but don't on any of my existing ones.

I'm no connoisseur, but years ago I settled on Carnivor's Cabernet Sauvignon as my favourite wine.
The problem now is that they're a California company, and I'm Canadian. I actually can't buy it at the moment, and unless there's a major overhaul in U.S. politics/diplomacy, I may never again.
So I'm looking for alternatives. I don't need it to be Canadian (though bonus if there's a good comparable one), just not from the U.S.
I'm near the border between Ontario and Quebec (on the Ontario side), so if you know the area, something regularly stocked by the LCBO or SAQ would ideal.
This is something that I've puzzled over a few times. I like to ride a bicycle, and have often wondered how the sizes of my front and back sprockets affects my energy expenditure.
Ignoring friction, slope, etc., let's say that my pedal:wheel gear ratio is 5:1, but in one case it's 100 teeth on the front and 20 on the back, and in another case it's 150 teeth on the front and 30 on the back. Same ratio, but does that affect the amount of work done?
I have personally found that, when going higher speeds, using two larger gears seems to work better than two smaller ones. I don't know though if this is a real effect or just observational bias. My guess though would be that having it larger on both sides means less conversion when pushing the wheel, increasing efficiency.
Edit: Affect dammit. How does torque AFFECT the efficiency of my bicycle.
The colouring is derived entirely from the displacement of (z, zi)
Stripes are achieved by using the net displacement of (z, zi) in colour calculation and a stagger in the palette.
I was just wandering a random world and came upon this settlement. There's nobody there. When I interact with the computer in the middle (hooked up to some sort of robot body) I get the text "REJECTED REJECTED REJECTED".
I haven't come across this before. Is there a story here or is it just decor?
I just bust a gut laughing at this. Tod Maffin talking about the diamond Shreddies campaign.

I've gotten so used to it in other games (e.g. Valheim) that I thought I was looking at flax.
Found at (-1.748227069809824, -0.007222705813748), with a height of 1.14 * 10^(-10).
Mandelbrot set at (-1.9903775341, -0.00000107286) With a height of 5 * 10^(-9). (z, zi) displacement is added to the count, and the stripes result from staggering the colour afterward.
*with modifiers: Both the polar and linear displacement of (z, zi) are used in calculating colour, and the end condition is set to |z| + |zi| < 4.

Mandelbrot set at (-1.7499421037264122, -0.000000076251228) with a height of 6.8 * 10^(-10).
It uses an altered end condition on the loop (|z| - |zi| < 2), which gives it that foliage look where you can see the colour stagger.
