hi was just wondering if there's any specific way to get accepted into the beta on steam

[austere crag]

Beta is over friend

[chrome vigil]

like on steam i requested is there anyway to get in or is that over too

[austere crag]

That is the same thing as the beta

We'll make an announcement here if there's any playtest opportunities in the future.

Cool

I got to clock out early because the fire department pulled up to the the building right next to where I waste my life

[trim wind]

why would you clock out for that?

its not your fault something is on fire

[hoary eagle]

You sure about that?

[austere crag]

I’m not even sure what happened, but I don’t mind at all because I got a cold so the closer I am to a large quantity of tissues and a trash can the better

[trim wind]

hmmm

[austere crag]

What 4 degrees Celsius + 45 km/h cold wind does to a mf (L Americans I won’t look up the conversions for either of those measurement units)

[trim wind]

right right

its 8 here

and very windy.. but thats nothing new...

[austere crag]

The absolute #1 worst weather conditions occur when one day is just pure rain with 10-5 degrees followed by another day when the temperature drops down to the negatives

On those occasions I take a moment to appreciate free healthcare, just imagine the amount of ER cases with bone fractures when absolutely everything is extremely slippery

[austere crag]

rouge-like similar to risk of rain 2 but you are a crab, the game is pc only

[cinder wedge]

risk of crab 2

[austere crag]

• fancy graphics because unreal engine

[cinder wedge]

wait wtf

wtf is ror2's engine

[austere crag]

Unity I think

ROR2 cuts back on the graphics quite a bit because making unique models for all items you can get in a run really hard

CC skips this by just making all perks and mods simple glyphs

[sharp phoenix]

I didn't even notice my W11 has a search bar now 😄

thanks for pointing it out

[cinder wedge]

cc perks kinda doodoo

some enemies are straight up run killers too

[austere crag]

i decided to start an easy run some time ago just to see how bullshit of a build i can make

i basically turned the auto rifle into a flamethrower

[cinder wedge]

that's a lot of fuckin ammo gaddamn

crab champions

[austere crag]

This build is incredibly goofy

I don’t even move during elites and boss battles because they end in around 20 seconds

This deeply scared me

[trim wind]

Omg.. I was making tea and my colleague walks by proudly showing off a booklet of a project he wrote called “stop food waste together”.. I look at him and asked him why he printed out each page, single sided.. diapositive (black page with white letters) in full color.. wasting a ton of ink and paper haha

Well you weren't gonna eat that paper were you

You had to hurt me with my mid-2017 Macbook pro

I want to upgrade so badly but.. idk

[austere crag]

It’s not that bad

Iowna2016macbookprothatwaspreownedandtheentirespacebarassemblyfelloutsothisistheonlywayicanpossiblytypeonthebuilt-inkeyboard

Nice

i'm on the lookout for an upgrade though

[trim wind]

Well apparently the M2 macbooks sold so poorly they stopped production for 2 months

So maybe they’ll be on discount

Personally wouldn’t mind 25% off the notchbook pro with an M2 (pro) processor

[austere crag]

most likely i'll look for a A1990, it's pre-M1 but i don't mind at all really

[ornate maple]

Are you copy-pasting your spaces?

[austere crag]

nope, i'm hooked up to an external display and keyboard

i did figure out a super silly solution

you can use bettertouchtool to remap the force click action so i bound it to pressing the spacebar

[trim wind]

Why tho

Intel is cursed

[austere crag]

a) M1 chips made the price of all intel macs dip really hard
b) i don't need a super powerful machine since i won't use it for any particularly resource-intensive tasks
c) i won't buy a windows laptop because the build quality and trackpads on them aren't all that great, and macOS just syncs better with all of the apple electronic waste i already have in my possession

[sharp phoenix]

what

[trim wind]

Still cursed, but I agree with most of your points.

i like pancakes

pancakes are simply sugary fluffy tortillas

[austere crag]

depends how thik they are

[molten spade]

if theyre omega thicc theyre just gyros right?

[austere crag]

like paninis are the same thing but thinner

[ornate maple]

Depends if you mean the American meaning of pancakes or the European meaning of pancakes

[molten spade]

whats the difference nate? my food culture is lackluster when it comes to eu

[ornate maple]

European ones are like flat tortilla kind and American ones are small and fluffy

[bleak turret]

Which also touches upon the Brazilian meaning of pancakes

[rotund gyro]

Yes sir! Easter day on Friday, and then an Easter day on Monday

[ornate maple]

Awesome, I think it's just a three day weekend where I live 🤔

[austere crag]

i'm about to cry

[cinder wedge]

why

[austere crag]

it's the 4th of april and it's snowing outside

[cinder wedge]

wtf

[austere crag]

for all you climate change fear mongers: please point me in the direction of the changed climate

before you think my brain's gone smooth: there's absolutely good, proven evidence that we as a race have an impact on earth's climate, but the media make it seem like the earth is gonna explode like the fucking fortnite island in 2 years if we don't stop manufacturing everything and go back to bashing rocks against animals for food

[twilit sable]

Agreed. The level of co2 is extremely small, making a fraction of a percent of the total atmospheric balance. We have time

[steep cloud]

https://tenor.com/view/bloodcartier-gif-25860033

[ornate maple]

[austere crag]

[ornate maple]

[full mauve]

yep

only the regulars tend to chat here

[trim wind]

This is our secwet chat

[cinder wedge]

real Gs using #🥚┇off-topic as a safe haven since #⚡┇the-finals-chat beggar scourge of 7th march

[rotund gyro]

The point of warning against global warming isn’t so that we should start doing 180s on everything

But make sure that we as humans, implement better environmental solutions for the future

It’s sustainability 101

[ornate maple]

I'm not sure if we want a debate on climate change in this server/channel Especially since a lot depends on what media you get your info from - the tactic of activism is often purposefully to scare a little so people understand that they can't go "we'll worry about this in 100 years"

[rotund gyro]

Sure. It has been snowing in march, and most of Europe has gotten heat waves up to 40 degrees

[ornate maple]

I suggest drinking a lot of water, eating healthy, and sorting your trash responsibly

[rotund gyro]

That was my point basically

It’s to not have very bad impact on the future

Like shit, I don’t want my future grandkids to need a gas mask whenever they have to go to school

[ornate maple]

Yes, so someone who says "there is a little fearmongering" and such is not incorrect but also might not understand why exactly there is some exaggeration to create a sense of urgency. Anyway, we can move on

[rotund gyro]

Fair enough, but there was no “little” in their sentence

[ornate maple]

I assumed that was also an exaggeration to be a bit humorous fortnite island

[rotund gyro]

I also see no issue with discussing the earth’s climate and sustainability Nate, it doesn’t really attack anyone

[steep cloud]

Why are we talking like we all know what grass is?

[ornate maple]

I'm just worried it will turn into posting essays or folks getting upset

Political topics are ok but usually such a discussion in a gaming server risks escalation into an argument

[surreal bone]

co2 isnt the problem its the other stuff emitted by all the factories thats the real problem

[rotund gyro]

I mean for me personally they can believe whatever, I’m just stating what science and my uni courses have provided me

[full mauve]

[void echo]

the environment is the cows

[rotund gyro]

CO2 contributes to the plant house effect. Yes there are other stuff like methane gas thinning the ozone layer, but co2 is a big contributor

[full mauve]

leeches = blood loss

[coarse sleet]

leeches = cows

[ornate maple]

And you're right to do so! The issue is mainly that folks often take issue with the methods of environmental activism and the messages about it, as everything there's room for disagreements

[full mauve]

blood loss = death

[steep cloud]

[surreal bone]

plus one way of thinking about it is co2 can be filtered out of the environment in the future easily with more plants but the other gasses wont be that simple to get rid of

rarely gets to 100f anymore

[rotund gyro]

Wasn’t Florida really hot last summer

My friend over there was dying

why do you think america keeps being invaded by aliens
the aliens know that america will steal all the cows if they knew they can run cars with it

Methane is let loose by the melting of half frozen land (I forgot the name of it in English)

And poop

Methane is 21 times stronger than CO2 when it comes to gas houses stuff

is keeping toilet paper on your desk as a substitute for tissues socially acceptable

(i'm ready for all of the nutcraft jokes)

[bleak turret]

[austere crag]

oh cool

the latest NVIDIA drivers can cause your GPU to fail at seemingly random times

guess i'll revert to 528

i'm assuming it's the drivers shitting bricks since "The Desktop Window Manager process has exited. (Process exit code: 0x8898008d, Restart count: 5, Primary display device ID: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070 Ti)" means DWM failed to find a device capable of 3D rendering

what's up

sky looks great tonight

[dusty kernel]

how tf do i get rid of my sister from my room

help

[austere crag]

ok

i think i know what's the issue

✨ my worthless fucking PSU is dying ✨

cause i hear quite a substantial amount of coil whine

so i have 2 theories:

A) PSU is ripe for the bin
B) this GPU is heavier than a fully decked out iPad Pro which means that if the desk is ever moved, the GPU power cables are nudged out of place

and if you didn't know coil whine usually means a component in your PC is manufactured in a way to cut costs as much as possible

alright

story's finale: it's not my GPU, pissed around with the PSU voltages in the BIOS and suddenly no coil whine

if only i could disable all of my problems like this

just go into my monitor's settings, select the 'annoying ass damaged LCD vertical bars that obscure the entire middle of the monitor' and switch them to off

although there is 1 advantage to having a busted monitor

if you are playing a game with a controller and the mouse cursor did not disappear by itself, just place it in the blind spot in the middle, and there you have it! the mouse cursor is now out of sight and out of mind

[bright cloud]

[austere crag]

[bright cloud]

EXACTLY THATS WHAT I'VE BEEN TRYING TO TELL PEOPLE

[trim wind]

no clue what you're talking about anymore

[lament fulcrum]

SCIENCE!

[trim wind]

hmm.. right

when will you eat that hammer?

[austere crag]

damn

[trim wind]

what?

[austere crag]

nice one studio wildcard

reselling fucking ShooterGame.exe (i refuse to call it ARK: Survival Evolved) in unreal engine 5 for $50

if you bought any DLC it's now useless

[trim wind]

Ark is built on EU5 nowadays?

[austere crag]

nope, it's stuck in unoptimized UE4 hell

[trim wind]

was about to say..

i assume they abandoned it...

work on Ark 2.. making sure thats not the same mess

[austere crag]

can't forget that all official servers for the current versions shut down in august

oh good, something they can put the blame on performance-wise

[trim wind]

tbf energy prices went up hughly.. I can image its a very expensive thing to maintain and the game is on retainer mode so they can work on Ark 2

[austere crag]

considering ShooterGame.exe runs like absolute ass on any computer even though ultra settings recommend an NVIDIA Titan X.

the Titan X released almost 8 years ago

[trim wind]

it is it is

old ass card

[austere crag]

it does make sense from their point of view, when ARK II was announced the first game was free on steam for a few days + ATLAS died on arrival + ARK mobile (wait, ARK on mobile exists?) is F2P

[trim wind]

after scorched earth it was all over

[austere crag]

when you combine all of those aspects, they basically make no profit and game development + server upkeep is expensive

lesgoooo

remaining 487h?~

[sand crown]

nah i swapped to GPU, it way faster now

[vivid oar]

ohh 😂

[vivid sparrow]

I showed my mom a picture of Namatama and she was like “OMG, so cute!!”

[ornate maple]

Woah, that's a render? Very realistic

[sand crown]

thank you but it's trash, i still learning :)

[ornate maple]

[makes a literal real-life scene] ah yes that's trash ♻️

You've got to believe in yourself, you're probably in the top 1% skill already

[undone aurora]

you can tell its a render cus the frosting looks plasticy and the leaves on the plant arent properly lit

[trim wind]

Still pretty great that we can do that with our home computers no?

[undone aurora]

oh yeah definitely

[ornate maple]

Well, no one said it wasn't a toy donut though

[trim wind]

And what you learn each time will improve the next

[undone aurora]

just pointing out small areas of improvement everything else is dope

dont mean to be rude or nuffin

[vivid oar]

The tea

The t

[ornate maple]

I didn't read it as rude, but I can't see what you mean about the lighting 😂

[vivid oar]

I mean tbh I don't think there are many renders I wouldn't think are renders

Try to search up photorealistic renders and see for urself, there's a technical limitation for us to make things truly realistic

[ornate maple]

I don't have any 3d expertise so I don't have the eye to see it, and so does most of the population tbh

It would probably be harder to make things realistic if the camera or the things move

[vivid oar]

But doesn't something feel off even tho it's almost real

Especially in motion (as u mentioned)

[ornate maple]

Now that I know it's a render I can see it looking a bit too even to be real (maybe light dithering would work to make it more realistic) but that's just because I know 😄

[vivid oar]

That makes sense haha

[ornate maple]

Also, obviously, being realistic isn't the requirement to be good at all

[vivid oar]

Ofc

I didn't mean it like that either. I actually prefer renders to feel absurd compared to reality

[ornate maple]

I'm a fan of the mid-2010s style in some games where the environment is just too saturated to be real, and it makes it really beautiful

[vivid oar]

:0 can I see an example

[ornate maple]

Dragon Age Inquisition

conversely, games like Dragon's Dogma or Kingdom Come have a more realistic, muted palette and it's also stunning but an entirely different style

[vivid oar]

:0 o I see it

I never noticed that type of style

[ornate maple]

TW3 would be another example of the former, to me, but it's less intense

[vivid oar]

Yeah, a bit more of its own stylization ig

I really dig the cell shaded semi pixel art look for games but not many games do it with the fake 2d with 3d effect the good way

And I guess it's not the most popular one either haha

https://youtu.be/n4IPBiB7SF4

Though I'm excited for this game

Waited 5y already haha

[ornate maple]

Very interesting style, the pixel art is so detailed in the environment it looks realistic

[vivid oar]

Ikr! I love it
Sadly the trailer was all fake lol but they're still working on it

[ornate maple]

After this many years, hopefully it meets your expectations 😅

[vivid oar]

Oh haha tbh my expectations are none, I just appreciate these types of games by lurking around and walking around listening to their soundtracks and playing like an actual NPC haha

[ornate maple]

Oh yeah, we need more games where you just get to be some guy (and it's also how I played THE FINALS if my team abandoned me lol)

[vivid oar]

Some guy as in someone from the game itself?

[ornate maple]

Yeah, well, not necessarily a hero haha

[vivid oar]

Ahh yeah I getcha

I think nuanced storytelling works better that way too, you really don't have to exaggerate each story to make it interesting

Makes them feel more relatable too

[ornate maple]

Yeah 😄 And the TF premise is kind of that you get to be any contestant you want, instead of established heroes, which makes it different from the start

Kind of like an RPG with a custom player character, haha

[vivid oar]

Yesss
It feels great to make urself look a certain way and play in that skin. And the fact that every fight is dynamic creates stories for your own character

Especially if you manage to play through the whole tournament

Tho sometimes I really do relate to Gerald when I kill 40 people in less than 5m on a horse

[ornate maple]

Yeah! Tbh I feel it's a twist for an FPS to do, most seem to have pre-made characters, but custom-character RPGs aren't that common either

[ornate maple]

I relate to my character in Dragon's Dogma when I'm too short to reach a fruit on a tree

[vivid oar]

[ornate maple]

Not sure if you played it, but it also has height and weight customization, and it affects your environment interactions

[vivid oar]

I've heard of it haha from my friends

They get annoyed by it

[ornate maple]

Yeah, and adding in a pawn that's your total opposite is crucial, lol

[vivid oar]

True! I think cosmetics are slapped on only for monetization which is ok but at least in the finals it's got a psychological feel to it. Sometimes I rock a stealthy look and go knife only and for a few minutes I genuinely feel like the coolest person on the planet

[ornate maple]

You get knifed you better get knifed by someone with drip

[vivid oar]

Hahaha

I'll be fine with that

But if that Knifer is default skin I will hunt for them

[ornate maple]

It also avoids the trap of many FPS where everyone ends up buying the same new skin and looking identical

[vivid oar]

Oh yeah haha 😂 ahem fighting 12 John wicks in fortnite

Muh immersion gone

[ornate maple]

I'm also impressed by our artists actually doing all the renders for 6 body types, it sounds wild & most games don't bother

[vivid oar]

Wait 6?m

[cinder wedge]

light medium heavy guy girl

[vivid oar]

Ohh yes yes

[ornate maple]

Haha

Hi lettuce

[vivid oar]

Do they render them all separately? I thought they'd have a system which morphs them and optimizes them for all different sizes mostly automatically

[ornate maple]

I assume there is a shortcut and it's not done from scratch

But I have no idea about the process!

Would be a cool backstage video in the future 🤔

[vivid oar]

Frr

[ornate maple]

Most games where the clothing just auto-morphs have some aliasing and clipping issues, so for a smooth look I assume there's separate work involved

(We still had some clipping issues in the Beta though, haha)

[vivid oar]

That sounds like a lot of effort, I respect that knowing there's literally hundreds of cosmetics not even seen

[vivid oar]

Ye true haha hope they fix it

[ornate maple]

I'm probably going to revert to flash Barbie games when the game is out and spend 5 hours making dolls 🤫

[vivid oar]

Lmaooo

But Nate you'll have to play to get the cosmetics 😭

Or .. Are you getting them for free 😠

[ornate maple]

I plead the fifth 😣 (I strongly doubt I will get them for free)

I will totally not be making big eyes at the dev team

[sand crown]

alr alr since you roasting my renders lol

what do you think about this one:

[vivid oar]

Big eyes with tears filling them up for some sweeet irl ray tracing

[ornate maple]

Hey, no one was roasting you 👀

[vivid oar]

Yeah .. if anything I'm jealous

[sand crown]

jking :D

[vivid oar]

I saw this on twitter! Looks so good

[ornate maple]

Sick, did you also paint the mural?

[sand crown]

whaaat!?

[vivid oar]

Wait Twitter.. idk I think it coulda been somewhere else maybe

[sand crown]

i made everythin except plants :3

but thank you

[vivid oar]

Wait was it Twitter? Do you have one

[sand crown]

i do

[vivid oar]

Am I tripping

Oh lol ok it was probably a stalking session

[sand crown]

oh wait

may be on reddit

[vivid oar]

Ooh yeah maybe

[sand crown]

i remember i was posting there several times

[vivid oar]

Yeah I think so haha

dlss 3 is a huge thing acutally

[finite vale]

I mean we already have that

no, not the bedrock ones. Java

[sand crown]

path tracing in minecraft?

[cinder wedge]

unlimited RT shadows

[austere crag]

I smell engine crashes mid-gameplay

[cinder wedge]

i smell 30 fps no dlss on the lowest resolution on my 3060ti

[sand crown]

damn i mean 14 fps for real time path tracing without dlss is quite impressive

[austere crag]

microsoft what is this

i'm pretty sure they're working on updating the file exploder after almost 3 decades (good job)

[sharp phoenix]

Morning

[ornate maple]

Hey there!

[ornate maple]

file exploder haha

[sand crown]

it such a good feature to have tabs, real time saver

[sharp phoenix]

Light mode user aaaa

[austere crag]

certified https://github.com/AutoDarkMode/Windows-Auto-Night-Mode moment

[ornate maple]

Wait, there's a dark mode? (Guy who's never checked)

[sharp phoenix]

Yeah, windows has a dark mode

[ornate maple]

Brb then

[austere crag]

*sometimes

most modern apps support dark mode but older win32 apps might not

[sharp phoenix]

so good though

[ornate maple]

I'm not sure if the contrast isn't a bit too big for me. I'll try it out and see

[sharp phoenix]

yay, just got the cheque from my insurance for the bike

time to cash it in and buy another bike

[sand crown]

so while we talking about windows and stuff, i recommend you guys PowerToys by microsoft

[ornate maple]

Anything specific you got in mind?

[ornate maple]

Interesting!

[sharp phoenix]

MT-07 or I really like the look of the Aprilia Tuono 660

[ornate maple]

I just sort of never bother customizing things. I set a monochrome mode on my phone 3 years ago and that's how it's been forever

[sand crown]

it brings some Mac features as well!

[ornate maple]

I know next to nothing about bikes, but the first one looks sick

[sharp phoenix]

the reliable yamaha bike

[ornate maple]

What's the locksmith and power renamer?

[cinder wedge]

yooo powertoys

[sand crown]

power rename is basically a little script, which let you rename a lot of files in 1 second

[cinder wedge]

i don't use most of what powertoys offers but i do like run

[ornate maple]

That's awesome

[sand crown]

looks like this

@ornate maple https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/powertoys/

you can check all of features right here

it's really really cool

[ornate maple]

Thanks, will probably look it up on my personal laptop

Mass renaming is probably really helpful if you make big projects, especially in teams. God knows people can't name things consistently

[hoary eagle]

No need to call me out like that man.

[ornate maple]

HAHA, I am also people

[hoary eagle]

Just funny cause we talked about this just yesterday but yah all good

[ornate maple]

Sounds like you need PowerToys

[hoary eagle]

I have it, just don't use it

[cinder wedge]

bruh

[austere crag]

here are some obscure apps that i personally like using:

ExplorerPatcher - A simple tool that enhances the windows shell by allowing for more settings than stock, for example you can almost completely revert back to windows 10's visual appearance on windows 11

Nilesoft Shell - revert context menus back to how they behaved in Windows 10 and below while making them match Windows 11's new design language.

Power Start Menu - Simple app that changes the visual appearance, content and behaviour of the Windows 11 start menu, ex. Disable recommended apps, Always show the all apps panel when the start menu is opened

QuickLook - adds macOS like file previews to windows. Just click on a file to select it, then press the spacebar to bring up a simple pop-up listing the info or contents of a file

Files - It's the file explorer if Microsoft cared enough to actually update it. It's still a bit unstable but for the most part it's very reliable

that's about all i'm also probably running short on the discord character limit

[void echo]

I vote for the latter!

I don't remember which MT, but some years ago I remember it being considered an absolute monster, so much so that they were saying that that is NOT the bike to get as a beginner bcs it was just too powerful to handle and the beginners wouldn't know how to control themselves from pushing it past [their] limits

[sharp phoenix]

I'm not a beginner though

[void echo]

oh, i didnt mean it like that!

[sharp phoenix]

Also sadly the mt-07 will be restricted thanks to my license only being A2

[void echo]

as a teen, i was heavily into motorcycles and was always watching YT videos about them (never was a technical geek or a true enthusiast), and I just remember a MT or FZ model that was deemed to be too powerful for beginners, but the best value

[sharp phoenix]

Unless I spend another grand to get it upgraded to full A license

[void echo]

think quick, dream bike?!!

[sharp phoenix]

My uncle had a Frazier, yeah, that thing was a fucking beast for only a 600cc

R1 for the shits and gigs

[void echo]

fair fair

[ornate maple]

Do you also get a free bike license if you do a car license?

Happens in some countries

[sharp phoenix]

Nope

[void echo]

wouldnt that be a dream...

[ornate maple]

I think it's a bit crazy. I can legally drive a bike, but I have no idea how

[void echo]

where do you live?

[sharp phoenix]

If you got your car licence before a certain date you could ride 125s and below

But that was like before 2000 or something

[ornate maple]

Middle of nowhere in central Europe

You'll have to take a guess

[sharp phoenix]

[void echo]

Belgium

[sharp phoenix]

Not central but you work for embark

[void echo]

he's a volunteer community manager

[sharp phoenix]

Is it volunteer ?

[ornate maple]

"volunteer" well I guess I do like being here

[sharp phoenix]

Yeah, the CMs actually work for Embark

[void echo]

Guide us, how close are we to guess where u are from

[ornate maple]

my stupid ass build in crab champions was buffed with today's update

[cinder wedge]

Did they nerf special crabs

They did let's goooo

[ionic lintel]

Which one

[gleaming ether]

do you people shower in the mornings or in the evenings?

[sharp phoenix]

[cinder wedge]

night gang

for maximum cold

also because i sleep in the morning

[sharp phoenix]

morning gang because who wants to go to work feeling unwashed

[ornate maple]

Fish has out-CMed the CMs

[ornate maple]

My hair also always gets messed up by sleeping so I often have to wash it to look like a human

[void echo]

what do you look like when you dont wash it

[sharp phoenix]

same, my hair loves to stick up in the morning, makes me look like I've had the worst night ever

[gleaming ether]

when it's hot in the summer i go in the morning and evening sometimes 👀
i'd love to not shower daily but two days is already pretty disgusting for me personally xd

it was even worse when i had longer hair

[sharp phoenix]

short hair ftw

[gleaming ether]

it takes longer time to dry my beard than my hair y.y

[sharp phoenix]

I would love to grow a beard however mine is just the most patchy thing ever

[gleaming ether]

soon TM

[sharp phoenix]

I can do a goatee reasonably well but anything on the sides, nope

[cinder wedge]

y'all can grow beards?

[gleaming ether]

imo it's a curse, i grow very fast so i need to shave daily if i want it to be clean and 3-day beard doesn't fit for me. so at some point i just stopped shaving daily because lazy lol, since then i'm keeping it at a bit longer size trimmed

[ornate maple]

I'm trying to grow a moustache rn and you can tell I'm... trying

[ornate maple]

Dw your time will come

[bleak turret]

I rocked my moustache for so long now I just want nothing

[ornate maple]

It's unfair to get rid of it and not give me any

[gleaming ether]

i'm so scared of the day i shave everyhting, legit haven't seen my shaven face for at least 5 years lol

[bleak turret]

If I could I would just transfer it to you sincerely

[cinder wedge]

I went a whole year no shaving
couldn't even grow a decent mustache

[ornate maple]

I shave like once a year to give really good indepth skin care to that part of my face and then I avoid mirrors for a month

[gleaming ether]

damn

[bleak turret]

I've had full beard since I was 16, I've had enough

[sharp phoenix]

[gleaming ether]

same

but i dont wanna do that laser therapy shit

mother nature said i have a bear and that's it

[sharp phoenix]

when I was 16, I only had stubble

[gleaming ether]

im fine with it

[sharp phoenix]

I need some of your genes

[gleaming ether]

you'll also get back hair 👀

[ornate maple]

I first got any real stubble in my mid 20s

[bleak turret]

I gave up and dun got it, my skin is already spiteful so shaving always ends my life

[gleaming ether]

damn so you did it?

don't know if i understand you correctly

[bleak turret]

Currently doing it ye

[gleaming ether]

oh interesting

so it's a longer process?

[bleak turret]

I guess it depends?

On how your roots react to the treatment, but its fairly slow in general.

[ornate maple]

With dark hair, electrolysis/laser is easier because it can "see" the hair

[gleaming ether]

aaahhh

i've read something somewhere before, i remember

[ornate maple]

Conversely blond ppl have problems with that

[bleak turret]

In average should be 10 to 12 sessions spaced through like 30 days each

So a year roughly

[gleaming ether]

good "luck" then? or rather: have a nice treat

[sharp phoenix]

that's gonna be a lot of money too

[ornate maple]

We're entering our Beauty Manager phase

[gleaming ether]

does it hurt though?

[bleak turret]

It stings but its tolerable for me

[gleaming ether]

alright

maybe in the future, for other areas i might think about that 👀

[sharp phoenix]

Just becoming managers of everything now

[bleak turret]

It do be literally burning your hair so you will feel something

[gleaming ether]

like back hair y.y

[ornate maple]

I had laser on some scars previously, not on hair, and the technician was like "wow why aren't you showing any pain" as if she didn't see me being entirely tattooed

[sharp phoenix]

how tattoo'd are we talking here? like both arms, chest, back ?

[ornate maple]

I'm not like covered yet but I have some on every limb and chest

Unfortunately it costs money 😔

[sharp phoenix]

nice, I've got a tribal tattoo on one of my arms which is being covered by a half sleeve atm and then also one on my chest which connects the half sleeve

[bleak turret]

Ooooo

[sharp phoenix]

still need to get it coloured in which is happening June thankfully

[ornate maple]

Nice! I was trying to get a half-sleeve but the artist ghosted me 😬 So now I'm in limbo

[bleak turret]

I only have like a tiny 5 cm mango outlined on my right forearm

I've told myself I'd sleeve-up one day but here I am

[ornate maple]

I'd say we should have a tattoo channel, but identifiable information etc etc hahaha

[bleak turret]

No triangulating tattoos

[sharp phoenix]

I'd get a tattoo of namatama if I could get a free plushie

[sharp phoenix]

luckily the place I go is one of the best in my town, so expensive though

currently had like 2 8 hour sessions for the half sleeve/chest piece

[bleak turret]

Good grief

[sharp phoenix]

then another 8 hour for colouring in June and it will all hopefully be done

[austere crag]

https://tenor.com/view/walter-white-walter-crying-walter-dying-gif-20964719

look how they massacred my boy

[honest cloak]

whats the game?

[austere crag]

Bloons TD 6

massive nerf in the latest patch

[honest cloak]

damn

[sharp phoenix]

Jesus Christ they really fucked the tackzone

That thing was a beast thing esp when combined with like an alch

[honest cloak]

is "32-8 " mean the quantity allowed?

[sharp phoenix]

The tackzone could shoot 32 tacks at a time

[ornate maple]

I think I'd die

[sharp phoenix]

Now it can only shoot 8 at a time

[ornate maple]

And I survived, like, 20 hours of snake tattoo

Not at once

[sharp phoenix]

Yeah, got to like 5th hour both times and it became a battle of "FFS, he's doing the same spot again, I want to leave"

[austere crag]

damn im getting a spine piece tmrw

[ornate maple]

The absolute WORST, now I think I'm going to tell artists going forward we're always doing lines and color separately

[ornate maple]

Oh good luck

[austere crag]

thanks friend. not a snake but a gothic looking dna strand

like a death metal font looking thing

[honest cloak]

oh shoot

[ornate maple]

That sounds awesome

[sharp phoenix]

Tell you what though, they did a part of my collar bone and that shit hurts

[austere crag]

i wanna give it uv accents after it heals

but i also dont know if my artist would even like that

[ornate maple]

That sounds sick

[hoary eagle]

drop the skincare routine fam

[ornate maple]

adaptogen foam or micelar water, then sometimes a clay mask or sheet mask, then a gin tonic hydrolate spray, then a niacinamide toner, then azelaic acid and/or moisturizing cream 🤓

[bleak turret]

I just drink the gin tonic and use moisturizing cream, but micelar water is goated and I miss it

[hoary eagle]

mmmmmhhhm.. yeah those are words I can read.

[void echo]

so pleasing to hear males genuinely caring about their skin =))
wholesome

[bleak turret]

Gaming industry can be fairly stressing at times, we gotta take care else we'll look like dead prunes

[hoary eagle]

dead prunes

[void echo]

i think that skincare routines are more common the more $ you earn, you just learn to take care of yourself.

when you have empty pockets, not a whole lot you can do

[gleaming ether]

i sometimes use tea tree oil, it's really useful

[void echo]

it's goated.

how do you use it?

[bleak turret]

To an extent for sure! But there are a lot of cheaper alternatives to things. But for sure cash just makes the process of "treating yoself" much better

[gleaming ether]

put like 5 drops into idk 100ml water

[void echo]

drop the cheap gems, bless us Beau

[ornate maple]

My stuff is 90% discount section in the supermarket

[void echo]

then you wash your face with it? apply it and let it sit? rinse?
what's the recipe

[gleaming ether]

and then i wrench the pads in them and apply it on the areas to treat

[surreal bone]

rougher skin which frequently cracks open in large slices > soft skin that doesnt have problems

[ornate maple]

just look for niacinamide or salicylic acid (not recommended together bc they stop each other) and then azelaic acid if you have serious acne problems

[void echo]

also depends where you live

[gleaming ether]

just watch a tea tree oil manual, it's probably better than what i do xd

[void echo]

i dont have serious acne, but have mild bumps and it's annoying cuz i want that glow up plwease :3

[void echo]

xd

[bleak turret]

nate can hate me on that but exfoliation with a tablespoon of coffee powder + enough water to make it muddy then wash + hydrate skin with aloe. What I'd do is get the aloe itself, remove the green part of the leaf, leaving only the gel-y middle and freezing it into squares. So you can just rub it on your face easily

[ornate maple]

That big 3 is goated, also get those acne stickers so you don't pick at it

[gleaming ether]

it's not to be used extensively, only on the areas where you have acne for example

but also depends on concentration i guess

[void echo]

i looked into the coffee treatment before, but never tried it out. i think i didnt because i read that it's not good for your skin and that it only makes acne worse....
stoopid me never tries things

[bleak turret]

You gotta be careful with exfoliating places with acne in general I suppose

[void echo]

essential oils are affordable, so that's something most of us can do

[ornate maple]

Look up water-free skincare routines, for some people washing with water makes it worse, so micelar water is better

I mean, wash with water sometimes, but don't scrub

[bleak turret]

Micelar water is really good indeed!

[ornate maple]

Your FACE, of course, not your whole body-

[austere crag]

taking notes ill never look at

[hoary eagle]

TIL what micelar water is, ty

[austere crag]

but i need to start a skincare routine for just my face but not my hands

the gym scars shall remain

[ornate maple]

SPF is the most important

[austere crag]

i dont go outside

[void echo]

T H I S

[void echo]

was just about to say this. i literally dont go outside

[hoary eagle]

I lift heffy and never get any issues with my hands. Good grip? idk

[ornate maple]

Valid, thanks

[ornate maple]

I'll give you skincare tips and you teach me to lift

[austere crag]

you already have calluses?

most games have grass shaders that look better than IRL grass anyways

[hoary eagle]

No not at all

[austere crag]

you use bars when lifting like benches and dl's?

[hoary eagle]

yes, left heavy on bars, bench, squad, deads. Then dumbells and kb's

trying to add some agility to this chonker with kettlebells, that shi cray.

[austere crag]

dont think kettlebells will do much. core workouts and shadowboxing/beat saber for me works

[hoary eagle]

have you tried turkish getups? it does wonders for me at least, I'm hurting all over a day or two after

[ornate maple]

I just do like, 10 pull ups 😂

[hoary eagle]

pullups are easy, even with a chonker of a bod

[ornate maple]

"pullups are easy"

[austere crag]

i havent tried that but now i want to. but sadly i have some acute strain im resting from yesterday

i only do wide pull pullups for that volume

[hoary eagle]

That's good, rest is important.

[austere crag]

the most important part indeed

[hoary eagle]

..and food. Always food.

[ornate maple]

[hoary eagle]

[ornate maple]

"make lasagna" you mean that's possible? i thought they were supermarket-grown

[hoary eagle]

oh boy we need to have a convo.

[bleak turret]

I want lasagna now

[ornate maple]

[austere crag]

i can also make lasagna but not with solid macros im not knowledged in that

[hoary eagle]

replace everything that's tasty with a healthier/light option and you're done. You'll hate it but it's better for you. jk

[ornate maple]

We have a meme locally that goes FIRST OF ALL, INCREASE MASS, so actually replace everything with a heavier version

[hoary eagle]

fair point, dense food will make ya feel full for longer. Who am I kidding I'm hungry every 30 mins no matter what I eat.

[ornate maple]

Same, need a lot of energy for crow-typical crime

[hoary eagle]

... crime?

Lemme lock up my laptop for the night.

(and snacks)

[ornate maple]

Hard to type with beak but snacks are a different matter

[violet horizon]

You guys hiring crime aerial black creatures that do crimes on a daily basis!?

[ornate maple]

We require a negative rabies test with any applications from wild creatures

[sharp phoenix]

[cinder wedge]

cluster launcher

[sharp phoenix]

[sharp phoenix]

The sniper is pretty great however you need A LOT of fire rate upgrades

[cinder wedge]
