Libluini: May 18, 2012; I gravitated towards the Greens, eventually even joining the party itself.

The Linke is a party I grudgingly accept exists, but I've learned enough about DDR-history I can't bring myself to trust a party that was once the SED, a party leading the corrupt state apparatus ...; Grimey Drawer

I started playing Stellaris a few days ago, my game is a constant starvation of minerals. Waiting to hit 360 minerals to build some mines...and finally! Back to zero minerals for +4 mineral production and the wait continues. Fleets, buildings, upgrades, can't afford any of it.

It makes for a boring game. I wish there was some marketplace function that let you trade energy for minerals. I have something like 4000 energy stored and practically no use for it at all.

If you adopt prosperity as your first tradition, you can get a huge discount for your mining stations. (Exploration is the same, but for research stations.)

If you want to be really brazen, play as democratic and shuffle your empire leader around with elections to always have one with mining bonuses in charge.

Anyway, even without all this, as long as you explore around with your science ships to pinpoint good sources of minerals, you can get to the point where your mineral storage overflows pretty drat often.
