pain

[sharp phoenix]

means I can delay my annual review

[feral ice]

My colleague just shot himself in the foot, and accidentally lost access to our UPS network so now he can't remote check them

[sharp phoenix]

great way to start a monday

[feral ice]

he generated a new password for the admin account, but forgot to save it in our password manager

[void brook]

do u guys have to review ur work daily

i'm still a uni student
anxiety towards job market

[sharp phoenix]

that's an oof, what password manager do you use?

[feral ice]

no, annually

[sharp phoenix]

yearly

[feral ice]

On-premise Keepass

[sharp phoenix]

ah, same here

[feral ice]

but we are moving to another solution soon, advised by our consultant

[sharp phoenix]

most our things are azure based so stored in keyvaults and shit however our onprem systems we use keepass for them

[feral ice]

literally our situation

[sharp phoenix]

I would say the best way but keepass aint exactly the most secure thing ever

[feral ice]

It's the easier way, but not the safer way. We are also moving to Edge exclusively, which all 4 in the IT Department, is not happy with haha

[sharp phoenix]

as in Microsoft Edge?

[sand jacinth]

Who's not using Opera GX? :V

[sharp phoenix]

I've always used Firefox, no point in stopping now

[sand jacinth]

And if not, did it hurt being dropped on your head at birth? :^)

I understand browser loyalty. I do.

[sharp phoenix]

funnily enough, I did get dropped on my head as a kid and went to hospital for it

[sand jacinth]

But damn, I moved from Firefox to Opera GX because it's just SO much better xD

[violet horizon]

i use brave :3

[sharp phoenix]

the opera GX UI makes me wanna die

[sand jacinth]

Did it hurt being dr- Get in the bin.

[violet horizon]

huh?

[sand jacinth]

AFAIK, you can change it

[void brook]

it's a good browser
only if the devs stop stuffing excess features into it

[sand jacinth]

Brave :V

🤮

[violet horizon]

...k

[sharp phoenix]

[sand jacinth]

Edge is surprisingly good now. Still not using it tho

[sharp phoenix]

Edge uses chromium now, right?

[void brook]

the context menu UI is horrendous

[void brook]

yep

[sand jacinth]

It is, ye

[void brook]

like bruh what is this sh*t

[sharp phoenix]

decent

ease of use for old people who want to quickly find the right option

[austere crag]

I love a browser which markets itself as a browser that does not affect performance as opposed to other options on the market and then proceeds to shove razer chroma libraries and animated home background down your throat 💀

[sand jacinth]

Windows is like "PLEASE! USE EDGE! WE SPENT SO MUCH TIME AND MONEY MAKING IT GOOD! ;n;"

[void brook]

I can understand they are heading towards devices with touchscreen
but pls give us a switch or a revamp in UI

[sand jacinth]

Aaaand I'm gonna stick to third party because I don't like standard chromium browsers using 3 terrabytes of ram every time I open youtube :v

[sharp phoenix]

"you don't need another browser, try ours, please help :("

[void brook]

lol

[austere crag]

TBH chrome only has ram management issues on macOS (thanks keystone)

[sand jacinth]

Some poor software dev is curled up in a corner, perpetually bawling his eyes out because we've seen all this work he's put in and have instead gone for the shitpost options :L

[hoary eagle]

MS be like "Hey you don't need our competitors, come here. We got whitelabel generic chrome/miro/notion/slack"

[austere crag]

I’m a firefox main that switched to https://www.waterfox.net because mozilla forgot how to make a functional browser

[sand jacinth]

It was more of a meme to be honest, Brave is interesting but everything Brave does you can do with extensions on a browser that offers more

[austere crag]

Discord removing embeds on mobile when

[sand jacinth]

If it's so popular then why have I never heard of it >:V

[void brook]

I thought that Waterfox got sold to an ad company?

[void brook]

I wish that I can disable BAT and it's integrated filter lol

[sand jacinth]

So, much like everything then

Welp, ladies and gentlemen, that's your daily scheduled dose of goblin, off to work with me!

[sharp phoenix]

have fun gob

[sand jacinth]

Have a good one! Got me a server I need to strip out and replace some fun little things inside :)))))))))))))))))))))))

[sharp phoenix]

also, you start work late

[austere crag]

I’m relatively certain that the acquisition did not affect developement

[sand jacinth]

I do :D I work 10 to whenever I get done with the shit I have to do with the day

[sharp phoenix]

noice

[sand jacinth]

Granted, I also have callouts for emergencies so sometimes I'm up at 5 or sometimes I get a callout at 8pm and have to go

but either way, I'm chillin' because most days are chill

[sharp phoenix]

yeah, fuck that, I'm happy with my standard 9-5

[sand jacinth]

Best of luck to you!

[sharp phoenix]

you too

[sand jacinth]

For the most part I work 10-4

[sharp phoenix]

https://tenor.com/view/lawrence-fishburne-get-back-to-work-boss-gif-15075204

[sand jacinth]

Don't you try this with me, already checked my work PC remotely, I've got nothing scheduled until 1pm >:V

[sharp phoenix]

fucking hate the teams search

[austere crag]

My favourite part of teams: you have to use the archaic Teams 1.x if you want to use a work account. Teams 2.x for personal use released in 2021 by the way. Still no news on support for the new app.

[sharp phoenix]

it's when I try searching something and it's like "oh we found it, click here to be redirected to the point in the chat" and all it does is open the chat and leaves it on the most recent message

[austere crag]

Oh and can’t forget about the overly invasive ‘Teams support for Safari is still in Beta” which forces you to enable cross-site tracking

[gleaming ether]

also, OneNote. There are two different versions of OneNote. I used the shitty one, until I saw someone else in my class using a different OneNote version (which looked better), I was like wtf? . This was the day I was educated about OneNote and OneNote for Windows, each with their respective set of cool bugs I surely have learned to love 🤠

[trim wind]

I’m crossing my fingers for an infographic of the beta

[austere crag]

Oh yeah and i’m pretty sure OneNote for Windows, the version that was meant to be more modern, is getting discontinued in favour of OneNote (classic) which will now be just OneNote. Confused yet?

[sharp phoenix]

Microsoft doing Microsoft things

[gleaming ether]

LMFAO, yeah I used the OneNote for Windows before, until I switched to the older version

just regular microsoft product naming xd

[austere crag]

Can’t forget about Outlook’s awkward still WIP transition from the current desktop app to “one outlook” which is literally a web app

[hoary eagle]

@trim wind c-a-f-e-c-i-t-o

[trim wind]

Omg one sec

Omg

[sharp phoenix]

it's best when you have some DevOps pipeline and then Microsoft decides to update a component without saying shit and it all breaks

[trim wind]

That one looks real good

[austere crag]

Yes, that means that in the near future you’ll be paying for the outlook app that free users have been using for 2-3 years now

[gleaming ether]

I have some grandpa that I help out with his tablet. He uses Outlook. The UI is horrible, even I don't seem to find things, how should this 85 year old guy do?

[austere crag]

How microsoft developers feel after remaking another desktop app in WebView as a PWA

Where’s the “progressive” part in PWAs anyway? They feel more like regress in terms of quality

[trim wind]

I’m gonna get cafecito toooo

@hoary eagle prepare yourself!

@lament musk prepare yourself toooo

[hoary eagle]

[trim wind]

@late prawn good morning to you too

[hoary eagle]

Ok you can chill with the tags now frend lol

[trim wind]

I’m afraid to tag Dusty because i can imagine she real busy

[gleaming ether]

povich just halted the finals development for 5s

[trim wind]

Hahaha

[gleaming ether]

you won't laugh if I throw this in #⚡┇the-finals-chat

nvm, its pretty chill now i guess

[hoary eagle]

dennis Povich the menace

[trim wind]

Imagine the final releasedate being on 31th december at 23:59 and I just put the whole thing in jeopardy

[gleaming ether]

big dox

[austere crag]

Is microsoft’s great value brand notion out yet? I’ve seen that a twitter profile for the service recently posted a message mentioning it’s coming soon

[full mauve]

the people who keep complaining they want to play the game realising they have to wait 5 seconds longer because of Povich

[trim wind]

Hehe

[austere crag]

Oh boy microsoft copilot, a text generator for Microsoft 365

[trim wind]

Listen… I boost morale

[hoary eagle]

Loop? Or whichever name?

[full mauve]

plot twist of the century

[trim wind]

This should be w healthy work environment

[full mauve]

now the Embarkers are working 5X the speed

[full mauve]

work should be that in general

[austere crag]

Yes, it’s called loop, probably a reference to how long loading will take on the crappy web app for desktop

Oh god

Oh no it’s out

[full mauve]

:o

[austere crag]

And it’s not available on iOS because the testflight is already full

Shoutouts to apple for limiting beta testing to 10000 participants

[gleaming ether]

please go away with limited beta testing

i can't do it anymore

[full mauve]

brings back memories doesn’t it :/

[austere crag]

Anybody remember microsoft start? Me neither.

[full mauve]

it’s alright Toast

[gleaming ether]

yeah and volvo also mistreating me

[full mauve]

never heard of it lmao

[full mauve]

[trim wind]

BEAR

[austere crag]

It’s a part of Microsoft’s “Great Value” family of products: Start is trying to copy the success Google had with Discover in their mobile app

[trim wind]

CA-FE-CI-TO

[feral ice]

spelling mistake fixed

[hoary eagle]

Looks good but lowkey light, single 'spresso in that thang?

[feral ice]

@austere crag

[austere crag]

I swear this joke will never end i just decided to embrace it

[trim wind]

Its a little light yeah, dudes here swear by lighter roasts

[sharp phoenix]

you're gonna have to nutcraft

[trim wind]

And yeah tis a single

Also the angle

[austere crag]

I just saw someone use 125% of their brain on r/discordapp;

They were complaining that nitro is advertised as 9.99 EUR per month, but on checkout discord charges 10.19 EUR

You’d assume every european is used to the concept of VAT

[sharp phoenix]

true but most people are probably used to VAT just being in the price

[trim wind]

Well.. actually..

Yeah its supposed to be included

I do know that gifting nitro is more expensive for whatever reason…

[austere crag]

Oh yeah just noticed their screenshot also mentioned they’re purchasing a gift

[hoary eagle]

So curious, in the stores where you are - do you not have VAT included in prices? Only place I've seen that is in the US (not "VAT" but ya know taxes)

[trim wind]

Haha I mean its mine to give isn’t it?

[hoary eagle]

Don't slander him, it makes my days a tiny bit better.

[austere crag]

I’m pretty sure all physical stores in the EU have to include VAT in the prices they list on shelves

[feral ice]

Most EU places include VAT into the price, and doesn't add it afterwards

[trim wind]

It was a good cupper Bear, but I don’t mind yall showing me whats in Stockholm. Johannes apparently wants to feed me drunk.. so need a solid base >.>

[sharp phoenix]

we aint no weird Americans

[trim wind]

Only wholesale doesn’t do it afaik because its deductible

[feral ice]

We ain't got wholesale, but we did have a business exclusive store at one time called "Metro" which was without VAT

[sharp phoenix]

wholesale places are sometimes nice enough to give you the Without VAT and with VAT prices

[trim wind]

Metro is a wholesaler

In some countries its called Makro, but its all under the metro group

[austere crag]

I’d actually go to a US supermarket just to see how different it is

[feral ice]

i mean they failed and left my country again after like 3 years so

[austere crag]

(And how many “family size” products i can count)

[sharp phoenix]

I just want a supersized mcdonalds

[trim wind]

So your restaurants buy everything at a market/in a supermarket?

[feral ice]

most respectable restaurants in my country buy's ingredients locally, though larger cities might go through a butcher and vegie supplier

[austere crag]

I’ve been to the US*

• in google earth VR that is

[trim wind]

Hmm alright, around here, they also locally source but have special horeca (hotel restaurant cafe) wholesalers for the big orders

[feral ice]

in america they do EVERYTHING big, big nature, big cities, big government, big military, big geniuses, BIG idiots

[austere crag]

My pistachio-sized brain knows only 2 things about the states:

1. They exist,
2. Under no circumstance should you ever cross the borders into either Ohio or Florida

[sharp phoenix]

got to emphasise the "BIG idiots" part

[feral ice]

naturally

[feral ice]

naturally

[sharp phoenix]

and they are crazy for guns for some reason

[austere crag]

Oh and i guess they don’t blame you for killing the person that broke into your house to kill you

[sand herald]

Florida has nice beaches though on the gulf of Mexico. I go there for vacations.

[hoary eagle]

All I remember from Florida is that it's moist.

[sharp phoenix]

mmm moisty Flordia

[sand herald]

If we had the same type of white sand beaches in another state I'd go there, but we don't. The really crazy people go further south or to Miami

[feral ice]

squelch

[austere crag]

I’m glad epic games decided to release an Unreal Editor for Fortnite…

Then limiting it to 100000 of some arbitrary memory unit that amounts to around 0.1 MB of data

[feral ice]

in general just love UE 5. Say what you will about Epic Games, but they make one hell of an engine

[austere crag]

The only platform where UE isn’t mainstream is the switch and vr

[sharp phoenix]

Nanite ❤️

[feral ice]

https://tenor.com/view/my-precious-precious-amazed-bilbo-baggins-lord-of-the-r-ings-gif-16270634

[austere crag]

Switch games tend to not use UE because nintendo insists on selling a 6 year old console with the performance of a raspberry pi in a pringles can

VR is probably mainly caused by the pretty minimal amount of support Epic gives to VR titles using unreal

[trim wind]

alright

I has a police outfit now

[austere crag]

Good job

[austere crag]

👍

Uh oh it appears that the #🥚┇off-topic is starting to get a bit empty

[feral ice]

i mean tbf nintendo's game have always been handheld first so like

[austere crag]

Time to see what controversial topic is #⚡┇the-finals-chat discussing atm

[sharp phoenix]

drama as always

[trim wind]

People be people

[austere crag]

This time it’s the discussion of why item skins don’t count as content

[trim wind]

eh.. after playing RDO for the last 3 years..

any content is content haha..

[sharp phoenix]

it's a shame that RDO flopped

[trim wind]

it didn't flop..

[austere crag]

https://tenor.com/view/reggie-reggie-vs-iwata-reggie-fils-aime-satoru-fight-gif-24920256

[sharp phoenix]

they basically gave up on it like within a year

[trim wind]

that is also an incorrect statement.

[austere crag]

Literally me vs the CMs after i break rule 9 for the 3572857345385498457th tine

I am quite good at breaking rule 9

[trim wind]

RDO for about 2,5 years worth of proper updates, but the monetization model was flawed and GTA Online is just making more money

[south turret]

Only thing worse than shitty monetization is Nexon

[trim wind]

RDO would be massively successful if not for GTA Online putting it to relative shame. If a mediumsized studio would have released RDO they would be living like kings

[trim wind]

thanks, move on now

[south turret]

no

[austere crag]

Could you get back to #⚡┇the-finals-chat ? those guys like drama more

[sharp phoenix]

fair

[feral ice]

don't worry, you are not alone

[trim wind]

Nobody disagrees that corperate greedi s bad @south turret , but we're here as gamers, not anarchists

[sharp phoenix]

I haven't played RDO enough to try and defend me calling it a flop

[south turret]

Am I an anarchist?

[feral ice]

uuuuh things are getting slighly spicy in TFC, might so a full on shit flinging fight in about 5 min

[austere crag]

And don’t you dare use nexon’s weird CS 1.6 mod as an example for their monetisation practices, that game was never meant to the international market

[sharp phoenix]

things are always spicy in there

[trim wind]

Ok let me rephrase it.. if you say flop, I say financially unhealthy.. the game was making them plenty money and the playerbase was more than big enough.. but if you also publish a game that makes 5 times that amount without any restrictions contentwise and have the sequal to that game launch in a year or two.. you know you will give up 1 million a year to make 10 million next year

[feral ice]

https://tenor.com/view/spicy-javed-gif-22249459

[trim wind]

I didn't have the patience to think of a better word.. but activists might be more accurate

[sharp phoenix]

good point

[austere crag]

All games that are exclusive to the china add absolutely tons of microtransactions that are really cheap so that the game actually brings in some sort of profit without breaking the very strict laws for video games

And if they don’t do this they become the next fortnite china

[sharp phoenix]

watching #⚡┇the-finals-chat

[austere crag]

That game handed out loads of rewards that were paid in the international version which made spending money on cosmetics pointless

No profit from cosmetics = no profit at all

No profit at all = no reason to continue keeping the game servers up

[sharp phoenix]

tell you one game that I respect which has such a low playerbase yet they still keep it updated/alive

Due Process, great game

[unique herald]

its honestly making me tired, glad I muted the chat

[azure plover]

anyone got a link to that countdown?

[trim wind]

the countdown finished afaik

[sharp phoenix]

https://www.reachthefinals.com/t1-d countdown gone though

[azure plover]

oh ok what happened?

nun?

[sharp phoenix]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[azure plover]

lol

[trim wind]

check the #easter-eggs chat, they are already analysing the newest image

[austere crag]

A) ospuze
B) pro juice
C) who needs water

[sharp phoenix]

[austere crag]

That’s a detailed explanation of the events of the countdown thank me later

[sharp phoenix]

Presented by nutcraft

[austere crag]

I am terrified at the thought that in theory I could make ospuze IRL from the contents description given by embark

[sharp phoenix]

do it

[austere crag]

Although I don’t think it’s worth the salmonella contamination risk in terms of using raw egg yolk

[unique herald]

Living on the edge

[austere crag]

So… What’s the next best thing? Blended boiled eggs.

I mean it can’t be that bad (foreshadowing)

[sharp phoenix]

isn't Eggnog raw egg?

[feral ice]

Cyberpunk 2077

Any actively developing "spicy" game

[austere crag]

Oh hell naw carbonated eggnog 💀

[sharp phoenix]

ah ok

[sharp phoenix]

I still haven't completed CP2077, so many games I need to complete

[pliant orbit]

cyberpunk has 25k daily, not particularly small for a sp game

and that's just steam

[austere crag]

So here’s the plan: make scrambled eggs only using the yolk, blend it up and add it to water mixed with orange juice and then carbonate the entire thing

[south turret]

dafuq

[austere crag]

That sure as hell sounds like a drink and torture method 2-in-1 value pack

[sharp phoenix]

only one way to find out if it's good

[south turret]

I did the math in my head, it's not good

case closed

[austere crag]

Shit wouldn’t be a pro juice, probably closer to an unscrupulous substance 🪦

hehehehee

[trim wind]

man I'm bored

[austere crag]

I reached level 9

Guess i’m now 6 levels away from finalist

[trim wind]

that is correct

[austere crag]

Advantages of being finalist:

Entitlement to asserting dominance over Contestants and no-ranks
Green name

Cons of being finalist:

50+ DM requests all with the title of “Can i get beta access bro”

[trim wind]

pretty accurate

I wouldn't say I feel like I'm better then contestants or rising stars but yeah..

green name (I actually wanted orange name, but I prefer that on every server)

[austere crag]

Key beggars are legally unable to tell apart green and cyan/light blue, they’re the same color to them

[trim wind]

well..

[austere crag]

You just become an embark employee

[trim wind]

sigh

[austere crag]

You suddenly have as many beta access codes as the average grandma has of those red hard candies that look like strawberries

The steam library has been updated again

Note: not my screenshot

[trim wind]

I like how they organized it all haha

[austere crag]

I’m so glad that new game banner isn’t just another generic pop-up with a boring background, the buttons have gradients, the box is 3D and it even casts a sharp shadow onto the surface of the background

That is a nice change of pace from the usual oversimplified UIs we’re used to ever since 2013

Alright 7 minutes left and it’s a wrap for the day for me

[sharp phoenix]

IT life

[feral ice]

reddit is a huge tool ngl

[trim wind]

man.. the nexon stuff is really bleeding into the discord

can we make a channel for people who want to talk about it because my lord..

its like they are bots at this point

[cinder wedge]

Fr

[austere crag]

Imagine their distress if they knew just how many products they use every day are mostly owned by East Asian corporations in terms of shares

[sharp phoenix]

but Nexon is killing Dark and Darker

[austere crag]

https://tenor.com/view/nerd-emoji-nerd-meme-radar-gif-26497624

[sharp phoenix]

[austere crag]

Now something tells me one of the biggest MMORPG publishers in Asia wouldn’t try to take down an indie game based on false claims

[sharp phoenix]

I couldn't care less about it tbf ¯_(ツ)_/¯

[austere crag]

They’d lose money on illegal fees for fighting this claim so why would they start it in the first place?

I assume the fart smellas on general chat are making a huge deal out of this because nexon is the publisher and most likely server host for the finals

[cinder wedge]

But they're not the publisher

[trim wind]

yeah.. nexon is a majority stakeholder

[cinder wedge]

Embark self publishes

[austere crag]

Either way they are most likely financing development and server costs

[trim wind]

myeah

[austere crag]

I assumed they were the publisher due to how loudly they’re boasting about the finals on their website my bad

[trim wind]

I'm sure all will be fine

[spice crater]

I hope so

I’m giving nexon one last chance

[sharp phoenix]

I haven't really had any previous experience with Nexon

[spice crater]

Dirty bomb was so good

[austere crag]

I don’t think pitchforks will be raised against the finals because they have nothing to do with the drama

[cinder wedge]

Well there are dummies who already have

[sharp phoenix]

it's just the odd people who come into this discord and be like "oooo Nexon is involved, fuck Embark and hope the game dies cry cry cry"

[cinder wedge]

Lmao accurate

to clarify, Embark is its own thing, developing with their own values

It Takes Two is awesome

[cinder wedge]

The fact that they said they have nothing against this game after saying that 💀

[trim wind]

well... this isn't a one to one comparison.. but would you think EA, generally not known to be the nicest of publishers, would allow a game like It Takes Two to exist if they can't let devs do their own thing?

[austere crag]

https://tenor.com/view/nikocado-punching-punching-car-seat-car-seat-car-gif-20464642

[trim wind]

I think Nexon can let Embark also do their own thing, especially if they self-publish the game too

[austere crag]

Average bandwagon jumper

[trim wind]

ok anyway

[sharp phoenix]

I don't care if Nexon is involved, I just want the game to be great which it currently is (from the beta)

[trim wind]

I mean.. most of us use twitch eventhough its owned by amazon

not saying twitch is holy by any means but still

[sharp phoenix]

still better than kick

[trim wind]

kick?

like kickstarter?

[sharp phoenix]

nah, some new streaming site made by a gambling streamer because twitch banned gambling

not made by a gambling streamer, made by a gambling site with a gambling streamer acting as it's "owner" of some sort

[unique herald]

Dark and Darker is just very public, for a lot of people they've never heard any game dev drama. Lots of YouTubers and streamers have played the game so lots of people are invested. Makes sense

[sharp phoenix]

it's not even a good game

[unique herald]

Not relevant but yes

[sharp phoenix]

it's not but like half the people who are complaining probably never played it

[unique herald]

idk about that but with anything on the internet, there are two sides and the biggest is always the angry people online lmao

[sand jacinth]

What is UP my gamers

[sharp phoenix]

zup

[unique herald]

o7

[trim wind]

I mean at the end of the day, things cost money, nothing comes for free.

[sand jacinth]

How're we doing on this gorgeous, sunny day?

[trim wind]

I'm okay, little bored

evidentally.. 🙂

[sharp phoenix]

it's not sunny

[unique herald]

I got woken up by heavy rain, but now its blue skies

[cinder wedge]

My ass was just getting kicked by some jalapeños

[trim wind]

what? xD

[sand jacinth]

It's lovely and sunny up here on the way to Birmingham :D

[sand jacinth]

I just had some jalapeno poppers and they were bomb :D

[trim wind]

nice nice haha

[dusk mirage]

You ever make those yourself? No wonder why they can be so expensive, things are a pain

[sharp phoenix]

man, don't you love it when you try logging into a system server and for some reason a completely different AD group was assigned to that server that should not have been there at all

I gather every imbarq employee here todayy...
I'm sorry to inform you that... Imbarq went bankrupt cuz I bought too many chocolate bars...
I officially confirm: It's an Imbarq end... Who knows if it will be back... Someday...

[spiral phoenix]

daaaamn

[violet horizon]

For now... I'll eat all the cholocate bars

Someone has to eat them

[spiral phoenix]

[bleak turret]

Rest in peace

Thx

[bleak turret]

That was my stunt double actually

[spiral phoenix]

[bleak turret]

See

[violet horizon]

No longer a CEO...

[dusk mirage]

I bought a bulk pack of 18 chocolate bars yesterday

[violet horizon]

But I got lots of cholocate however

[spiral phoenix]

still a CEO in the totally top secret discord tho!

[violet horizon]

[vivid sparrow]

I feel like hugging an egg

[sharp phoenix]

how much chocolate did you buy to make Imbarq bankrupt

[austere crag]

Anywhere between 1 and 20

[trim wind]

did Imbarq seize to exist?

[bleak turret]

They suffered with the great chocolate depression

[trim wind]

Thats why stroopwafels are superior

[austere crag]

update on my goofy re- adventure into the world of linux: i'm switching from HoloISO to ChimeraOS because gamescope on NVIDIA doesn't work. Like at all. What's the point of installing steamOS if you can't use steam?

[sharp phoenix]

Does nvidia finally have actual drivers for linux?

[austere crag]

no

if you're looking for DLSS and RT they still don't work

i have an empty drive that i can use for testing so i'm not losing anything if something goes wrong

Oh good, windows 12 will be tightly integrated with windows 365

Not to be confused with Microsoft 365, windows 365 is a service that lets you use a Windows VM powered by Microsoft’s data centres. TL;DR it’s just a PC in the cloud

Because the first thing I want to do with my RTX 3070 Ti and Ryzen 7 5800X is spend $450/month to get a fifth of that performance in the cloud

[lament musk]

I dont think anybody that buys hardware like that is the target group for that service :)

[sharp phoenix]

I still remember when they said Windows 10 will be the last

[gusty pumice]

Welp

[sand jacinth]

I have, yeah, never had an issue with them, not sure how people struggle

[dusk mirage]

They're just annoying to make for hardly any nutritional value

[sharp phoenix]

taste so goooood though

[dusk mirage]

Oh yeah that's why they're always like $8 for a jalapeno with cream cheese inside of it

[sharp phoenix]

worth it, esp if you get like a garlic sauce dip with it

[sand jacinth]

They taste yum yum yum :))))

Just buy jalapenos with seeds, take the top out, rip it's guts out, slap some cheese and other shit inside, slap top back, toothpick to hold it together, oven or airfryer or whatever you prefer, done

[sharp phoenix]

nah, you gotta get the breadcrumbed ones

[sand jacinth]

I mean, even then, that's not too hard, just scratch the fuck out of the skin with a sharp knife so the egg wash and flour sticks a bit better

[sharp phoenix]

kinda want to buy some jalapeno poppers now

[sand jacinth]

make them!

If you're coming NAF this year, you best be ready to deal with goblin chef

[sharp phoenix]

I'm so lazy though

[sand jacinth]

Breakfast will be banging

[sharp phoenix]

I'm expecting some jalapeno poppers for lunch

I'll supply the ingredients

[sand jacinth]

Not at NAF, I have a little gas burner, not getting oil that hot for that long :L

[sharp phoenix]

breakfast though, yes please

I had the lunch of champions today

[sand jacinth]

What are you, 6? XD

[sharp phoenix]

I saw them in asda and wanted to try them again

used to love them as a kid

not really worth the £2 though

[sand jacinth]

Not as good as you remember eh'?

[sharp phoenix]

for what it was, it's still pretty decent ngl

just expensive

[sand jacinth]

I'd rather spend double on a full pack of ham, a full pack of cheese and a full pack of crackers :L

[sharp phoenix]

100% yeah

or a pack of ritz crackers with cream cheese

[sand jacinth]

And then I'd rather go to my local polish place that has this bakery and get a hand made chicken and sweetcorn pizza baguette where the sauce has stuff like peppers cooked in so it's SO good

[sharp phoenix]

damn that sounds good

sadly there is no bakeries near me

[sand jacinth]

If there's anything I've learned, if you live in or near a decently sized town, there's a polish bakery and it WILL have cherry jam filled donuts

[sharp phoenix]

cherry jam...hmmm

[sand jacinth]

I LOVE cherries but I'm mildly allergic

[sharp phoenix]

ah, scratchy throat and everything?

[sand jacinth]

Numb mouth, scratchy throat, face starts to itch

I have no physical medical conditions other than being allergic to pollen and mildly allergic to almost every fruit despite adoring fruit

[sharp phoenix]

pretty good trade off tbf

slightly allergic to fruit but no medical conditions apart from a fucked eardrum

[sand jacinth]

That was my fault tbh :L

[sharp phoenix]

true

[sand jacinth]

Oh and I'm 5'7 so legally a midget :^)

[sharp phoenix]

[sand jacinth]

Expect to be woken up in the night to a BFG loaded with magflash 12 gauge

[dusk mirage]

That sounds very violent

[sharp phoenix]

can I at least wear ear protection beforehand?

[sand jacinth]

Do you sleep in ear pro? :^)

[dusk mirage]

One time I was an idiot at a range and removed my ear protection right as somebody shot a shotgun in the booth next to me

[sharp phoenix]

worth the risk

[sand jacinth]

Because magflashes are 12 guage shorty blanks loaded with magnesium, they're impossibly loud and rip all the air out of the room they're in

You can be 20 feet away and it'll feel like you've been punched in the chest

[sharp phoenix]

jesus

[sand jacinth]

You should try firing .303 British in an old abandoned train tunnel turned into a firing range xD

[dusk mirage]

Nobody noticed what I did or how much suffering I was in so I had to play it off all cool

I will also still accept chocolate

[violet horizon]

Kk.. I'll give you a cholocate ...

[bleak turret]

[austere crag]

It's not my fault! I told you I had 3 meter long candy bars and you bought 20 of them.

[violet horizon]

But I need something from you beau...

I need you to answer a simple question, an important one

[gusty pumice]

have you guys had the three pound chocolate bars?

[bleak turret]

[violet horizon]

[gusty pumice]

don't do it its a trap

[austere crag]

[gusty pumice]

still waiting on that chocolate yeah

[violet horizon]

I think... My belly hmmmm

[gusty pumice]

well

[bleak turret]

Well guess I'll have to ask them to halt development until you find another chocolate

[gusty pumice]

guess we have to tear open the belly to get the chocolate back

[violet horizon]

Sleepy no...

[gusty pumice]

the consequences of your actions

[violet horizon]

Do I have to start eenbarc?

[gusty pumice]

[violet horizon]

[bleak turret]

Now find the chocolate or you will never see smoke grenades and M11s again.

[gusty pumice]

or the knifes

[violet horizon]

Oh no...

[bleak turret]

Matter of fact, I'm petitioning to any dev that decides to suggest the idea of a Kunai to be rejected due to: treason

[violet horizon]

Let me... Find them... It... A small square ... Of cholocate...?

[violet horizon]

Heyyy!!!! That's on my list to send to the eggmail soon!!!

[bleak turret]

I only like the cookies and cream one

Other Hersheys are kinda eh

[gusty pumice]

mmmm cookies and cream

[violet horizon]

sleepy help me get a cholocate for beau... I need to be on the white list of embark

[gusty pumice]

I tried but now its your turn, you have the information

[violet horizon]

Exclusive for me ofc...

[gusty pumice]

lol only for kunai

[weary ivy]

You know theres a kunai in r6 siege

[violet horizon]

[gusty pumice]

do those actually hurt people or is it just a shield?

[weary ivy]

They can hurt people if you get a direct hit

Not much dmg though

[gusty pumice]

ahh ok

[weary ivy]

Like 5 I think

[gusty pumice]

wow thats not a lot

[gusty pumice]

I was rocking the all weather jacket that no one could find out how to get

[bleak turret]

I was rocking the yellow one

[gusty pumice]

yeah me too

[bleak turret]

But then I was like hmmmm

[violet horizon]

Yeah, no I haven't. I thought you shared in one channel and I missed it, but no

[violet horizon]

Yo... How did you get the mask

That was the mask I wanted so bad

[gusty pumice]

that was part of a shop bundle I think

ayo

[violet horizon]

Omg... I missed it :(

[gusty pumice]

Beau do you remember how to get the mask?

[violet horizon]

HOW DO YOU BOTH

omg....

[bleak turret]

Random drop

[gusty pumice]

the same thing just different colors lol

[violet horizon]

I wanted that mask, I love everything japanese related

[gusty pumice]

I had it like day 1 so I'm confused I think it was a shop bundle

[bleak turret]

I miss my LH1 skin too

And my pyrite sawed off

[violet horizon]

The all colorful one?

[gusty pumice]

I got the warped stuff

[violet horizon]

I still need to get my list done

[gusty pumice]

I wish there was a deagle in the game

[bleak turret]

I need to beg for a totally ironic LH1

[gusty pumice]

I used to main the deagle in CS GO

[violet horizon]

I'm just making it clear and trying to find ways to show what I'm talking about, like sound which is not that easy

[gusty pumice]

sound?

[violet horizon]

Weapon sound

[gusty pumice]

ahh icy

[bleak turret]

Yeah bats communicate through sound

[violet horizon]

Footsteps

[gusty pumice]

lmao icy icy

sometimes the audio in game really messed with my mind because I kept hearing footsteps behind me and I was like no one is there

[bleak turret]

Maybe it was just an IRL ghost behind you

[violet horizon]

[gusty pumice]

oh my gosh I'm haunted

or its just kunai

[bleak turret]

Probably not Kunai

too busy getting FP

[gusty pumice]

true

[bleak turret]

Ghost was probably not invited to the test and wanted to take a peek

[gusty pumice]

justice for ghosts

[violet horizon]

But to be real, I do orientate myself a lot through sound

It's like my "back eyes" xd

[gusty pumice]

as pro gamers should

[bleak turret]

I just scream

BEHIND YOU AAA

Hahahaha

Ow2 has amazing sound design

[bleak turret]

YES YES YES YES PLEASE EMBARK LISTEN

[sharp phoenix]

oh shit sledgehammer is alive

[fast fiber]

Revolver skin prolly

[weary ivy]

no no no I'm talking full mag and recoil, none of that 6 bullets bullshit

I love the sound deagles make

[turbid eagle]

probably would be weak as fuck when you think abt how much dmg the revolver already makes

maybe longer range

to even it out

[weary ivy]

Ok listen up embark I'm gonna need at least 15 bullets, high ass recoil, slightly higher dmg than the revolver and on light

[turbid eagle]

ok i agree now

[sharp phoenix]

on light, god no

people already hate light enough

[turbid eagle]

they can get the rev, medium gets deag 😎

would also kinda makes sense if you think abt how much recoil a deagle does

probably would break lights wrists

[sharp phoenix]

add weapon picking up = light picks up rev/deagle > tries to shoot > hear crack of the bone and -25% health

[turbid eagle]

add weapon picking up = light picks up rpg > tries to shoot > hear crack of the bone and -90% health > gets turned into body missile flying backwards

[sharp phoenix]

tatical flying backwards light into a wall to break the wall

[spice crater]

Time to slave away on csgo hoping to get cs2 beta

[spice crater]

any pics

[bleak turret]

I'll try to get one once I'm done getting it set up!

[sharp phoenix]

surprised you didn't go for a 7800X3D once that comes out

[austere crag]

I couldn't stop him in time

😔

[bleak turret]

7900XTX was already a good dent on the budget, buying an AM5 motherboard would trash me

[sharp phoenix]

good point

it cost me around £800 to upgrade to AM5

[bleak turret]

Luckily I had experience fitting my 6800XT Red Devil in this tiny case, so the 7900XTX will not be an issue.

Also it comes with a support to remove card sag, Sapphire I love you

[sharp phoenix]

Sapphire cards are the best AMD cards in my opinion

[bleak turret]

Aye

[spice crater]

damn now i want a amd card

[bleak turret]

My only gripe will be pretty much abandoning VR for now, cause of 7000 series drivers being scuffed

[sharp phoenix]

they can only get better thankfully

and usually AMD are good at improving drivers after a while

[bleak turret]

Hope its resolved, cause the actual raw performance is insane on VR

The issues are mainly random stuttering and AA artifacts.

[sharp phoenix]

I'm waiting for the 8000 series for AMD before I buy another GPU, no point in upgrading from a 6900XT and spending nearly £1k for it

[bleak turret]

24GB of VRAM helps a lot on that end, though I'm still waiting to see how things like AV1 might possibly be added to Virtual Desktop

Yeah 6000 series in general is just such a great card roster

My 6800XT was pumping 120-140 fps Ultra on this Closed Beta with RTX on medium

[sharp phoenix]

I didn't look at what FPS it was pumping out, it ran smooth so I was happy

[bleak turret]

Adrenalin will usually make like a report on it

[sharp phoenix]

Adrenaline reports seems weird considering it thinks I played a total of 370 hours

[bleak turret]

Huuuh

[sharp phoenix]

I would say it was probably around 100fps most the time

everything on epic apart from RT

[spice crater]

370hrs lmao what

[sharp phoenix]

just AMD software being weird

I only got like 112 hours IG

[spice crater]

i was gonna say 370hrs is interesting

[sharp phoenix]

would mean I have played the game for 15 games straight

basically the whole length of the beta without closing the game

[pure mulch]

whattt

[haughty torrent]

I’ll check this out tonight. It looks like an interesting title though

[trim wind]

Its not a very serious thing to be clear

[haughty torrent]

Ah, ok. Even more intriguing

[weary ivy]

damn it povich we almost had him

[lament fulcrum]

I mean, there are people who'd spend $300 to bury a video. I'm sure.

There are very annoying videos out there after all.

If I were rich enough I'd bury all the click baiters.

[dusk mirage]

What’s the context here

[spice crater]

damn didnt know my steam account was worth tht much

[dark hatch]

I know exactly what website that is- lemme tell ya, it shows one of my game accounts valued at like, 10k. Yet better accounts sell for around 1k

[spice crater]

Huh wack 🤨

[dark hatch]

Steam accounts may be different. But yeah- I'd assume if you found someone randomly, they'd bite it. But trying to sell on that site based off that number, good luck lmao

[spice crater]

Oh god no I’m not selling was just checking out my account price. And does it take in the fact of like cs skins and such

[dark hatch]

Does it take cs skins based off their actual values? or just the marketplace values?

[spice crater]

I don’t know. I don’t have the most awesome skin inventory so much of my stuff is 10-20 bucks

i sold like 90% of my skins 2 years ago

[dark hatch]

And it's sad to say- I've had to resort to DayZ to keep me from going insane.

[spice crater]

dayz sa is goated with mods

i got like 1700hrs

[dark hatch]

I had an AWP medusa ft back when they were worth like, 400 bucks. I gave it to a friend because I quit and now see it's over 2k lmao

[dark hatch]

I just started playing again. I'm kinda stuck now though. I'm passing out from no blood in the middle of the woods, and it's not regening high enough to let me get somewhere.

[spice crater]

Yeah I regret selling all my skins. I had a M9 Bayonet Doppler Sapphire minimal wear and I sold it for like 1900 In 2018 for a new engine for my car and it’s worth like almost 10k now :/

and I had a statrak aquamarine minimal wear ak

shits so expensive now

i regret it all

[dark hatch]

It's nutty man. There's AK skins worth 10k up to 100k. Some of those stickers are more insane then skin prices.

Time to see if I can get myself out of this mess I'm in on DayZ lmao

[spice crater]

Oh yeah I know some stickers are worth more then my entire life it’s wild

[dark hatch]

Titan holo kato 2014 are like 50k+

[spice crater]

Why did skin prices go up?? Cuz of cs2 or the Russian war on Ukraine !?

[dark hatch]

Just because they're so hard to get. Those stickers alone, there's only 15 capsules left that can even remotely have a chance at getting the big hitters.

Those capsules are 12k each.

[spice crater]

True but also a ton of skins have shot up In prices. Like the skins I kept almost doubled in price

[dark hatch]

Someone just opened one last week because a viewer actually donated it to him. The streamer got a titan holo lmao

And yeah, same thing- the cases those skins come from are rare now. There's still a super super small chance one can get a case to drop from a game, but the chances of getting that case, and the skin after it is quite rare.

[spice crater]

god If I never sold 90 percent of my skins I’d have like 25k ://///

Makes sense Valve, makes sense

[south turret]

Yeah, so if you play now it doesn't count

Of course they are, but valve only wants to reward their loyal players, not some random people who get upset about anything

Because the other cat mugs are taken

Can’t have top notch cafecito every day
