if you're gonna make me clarify what kind of ai i mean im gonna kill you

[sinful parrot]

Ok jokes over dont say that shit some people may take it literally.

[gloomy urchin]

ai developers discover that months if not years of data scrapping cannot be profitable purely on ads

[sinful parrot]

AI can be successful if you do it right. dont shove too much ai. im making a game. it has lots of ai but not ai art and all that. im designing an ai system for it

[gloomy urchin]

yeah i think it could be profitable if it was done on way less scale

unfortunately we need quick profit

[sinful parrot]

thats the modern businessworld for you

I am gonna miss sora tho

[vale cloak]

ai is a buzzword i doubt it uses deep learninng

[gloomy urchin]

eh they'll probably figure something out

[vale cloak]

its why i usually encapuslate the word in quotes

"""""ai"""""

[gloomy urchin]

large scale autocorrector you mean

[sinful parrot]

nah mate openai will be bankrupt in 2027 or by 2027

they aint coming back

[vale cloak]

sadly no

they wont

the USA ecnonmy relies on it

they will keep it alive

like mr house

[sinful parrot]

but nvidia is the big dawg in the ai bubble the big boss the genius making it all happen

[gloomy urchin]

well i doubt ai will go completely, people will probably try to make their own versions of it but it will be much slower and how its actually supposed to be done

lets just kill nvidia

[vale cloak]

it probably will go completely but you are right

in the hypothetical where civilisation doesnt fail with ai

it will have some uses somewhere

[sinful parrot]

the only good ai is simple ai used for grammar and office assitant and video game ai for attack patterns or allies or enemies

ai isnt a replacement

theres a reason roblox is losing lots of cash daily

they force ai on everything

ai mods

[vale cloak]

we can and have done that without deep learning for ages

its pretty good at menial coding and image recognition tho

deep learning enemies are always very wasteful and usuallly bad without so much modification that it becomes not worth the effort

and the same applies for spelling/typing assistance

[sinful parrot]

there was always gonna be ai. i mean wasnt there ai in the early 2000s for video games. shenmue is a great example of how ai has evolved and that game came out in the 90s

[vale cloak]

thats not the same thing

that why ai is a useless meaningless word

[sinful parrot]

well im talking about the ai that im used to

programming ai

[gloomy urchin]

the only reason i see for deep learning in gaming is adapting to player and actually react and behave like a human

[sinful parrot]

for video games

[vale cloak]

its like calling an abacus the same as a calculator

[vale cloak]

that kinda ai doesnt have anything to do with grammar

[wanton portal]

calc

[gloomy urchin]

programming ai is adaptive blueprints

[sinful parrot]

there are different types of ai

[spark quartz]

that would be cool, to have the ability to actually talk via microphone to npcs

[gloomy urchin]

litearlly anything-ai is simple adaptation to little changes from original output

[sinful parrot]

i use quillbot for my grammar in ai

i lowkey type too fast

[vale cloak]

there are difffernt things that use the buzzword yes

[gloomy urchin]

people have done that actually via chatgpt

[wanton portal]

I remember a horror game on steam that did this

[sinful parrot]

gta 6 might have that

[vale cloak]

you dont need ai for that

[wanton portal]

why?
it would fuck up the the story

[sinful parrot]

the closest thing weve gotten to human interaction with ai is chatgpt

[sinful parrot]

i hope it has npcs you can talk to via mic. actually the matrix video game did have this feature

just imagine cursing an npcs bloodline for cutting in line

shit would be funny as fuck

[vale cloak]

how are people still falling for the buzzwords and hype even now

[sinful parrot]

because gta 6 will release

no matter how many delays

Not as hard as quitting drugs or cigarettes. But I will admit I have managed to reduce watching that garbage

[wanton portal]

isnt quitting porn a good thing

why is it depicted a bad thing

[zenith hearth]

Rdr2 is done installing, but it gets the error "out of virtual memory"

I just increased the amount of virtual memory and restarted my computer. Hopefully it will work.

[mystic marlin]

you will run out if you stop producing medicine though

[gloomy urchin]

this is enough to last 2 in-game years

i barely touch any kind of medicine after raids unless its something that requires high tend percent

[mystic marlin]

ah

i always use medicine

ever since the incident

[gloomy urchin]

i am yet to be traumatized 🩷

past me decided to get a guy with a big medicine and a passion

one little issue is that he's my main melee fighter so there might be a slight chance of him dying

WHAT THE FUCK

411 years old 😭

[jolly fern]

I am SO happy

I am playing a cheated save on Ultimate Admiral Dreadnoughts.

Only one ship out of nine got a clean hit on my single battlecruiser

One of my own designs that was horribly outdated still landed a torpedo shot on its little brother.

[zenith hearth]

dude I accidentally ran over a dog with my horse and a guy stabbed me to death

[jolly fern]

However I am also livid as this means Serbia sold MY ships to the Turks

Three Austrian warships lie on the seabed.

And blood will be spilled for it.

[shell swift]

Perfectly reasonable crashout

[jolly fern]

Also as a bonus

The French-built light cruiser exploded six times in a row and promptly sank

[winter viper]

hey why cant i wear spaulders

i removed everything

rank thing? need to be a higher rank?

[tall remnant]

idk

have you tried restarting the game

[winter viper]

no its like theres a red thing on where the shoulders are

it used to be a red thing+ropes and now its just the red thing

[tall remnant]

maybe you need to rest

[winter viper]

are half gauntlets better than normal ones

[restive trench]

is half a chocolate bar better than a full one

[winter viper]

you are right bro

[gloomy urchin]

meow

[hybrid granite]

but is half a sword better than a full one? thats the real question

[indigo hare]

On a diet, yeah

Or like diabetes

Or if you’ve been literally starving the past two weeks and your first bit of food is a chocolate bar but you know if you eat too much or too fast youll just lose it again

Or if someone has a gun to your head and says if you eat the full bar youll die but half and youll live

Or if it’s hot outside and you dropped your chocolate bar, and you slip and fall, if it was only half a bar you probably wouldn’t fall but with a full one Youre definitely falling

@drowsy finch I like tis Toyota

[river oriole]

is that beamng

no that must be gta or something

there's a guy in the car

[stable wren]

Forza 5

[river oriole]

nice, i guessed it. first try.

definitely didn't say the wrong game once.

[stable wren]

I an recreating every Initial D car in 5 till 6 release

[drowsy finch]

u should still do them

[river oriole]

i do

[drowsy finch]

Toyotas stink compared to uhmmm honda I guess

[drowsy finch]

[stable wren]

:p

This is the Type R Civic, it's first appearance was in the Initial D arcade, then saw appearances in the anime as a easteregg then Manga

[drowsy finch]

I drive a civic !!!!

I miss my jeep wrangler thoguhbh

[stable wren]

Initial D has a ton of cars

But most of them are in the games

Like the Porsche

The Alfa Romeo

And the GR Supra

The GR Supra was actually an enemy in the game

[drowsy finch]

Is that like BeamNG but like different ?

[stable wren]

Initial D is a Japanese manga and game series

About touge street racing

(Touge is where you go high speeds down mountain roads)

[drowsy finch]

Ohhghhh ohh gotcha gotcha gotcha gotcha

I don't really interact with any japanese stuff ngl

I just don't get around to ti

it

[river oriole]

a lot of anime/manga is extremely overrated

[stable wren]

Fun fact?

There is a Initial D car show like thing

[river oriole]

some of it is peak tho

[stable wren]

Where they get the irl cars with the livery or colors they had in the series and show them off

[stable wren]

I love Initial D

[drowsy finch]

I also dont like carz either !!!

Or well I wouldnt saay that

I dont know anything about them

[stable wren]

Initial D is about car knowledge ngl

You might dislike it

You always get Forza 6 on a sale, that game is filled with references to Initial D

It even has the mountain the series takes place in

[restive trench]

my shitass machine had this problem and it really its a fucking pain

so far what ive done is reseating the ram dozens of times until it eventually works

or like changing the order

so my suggestions are

1. reseat everything, you will get bored and lost hope and put everything back, only then the pc will work

2. clean ur set up

i also have speculations that this is an airflow issue

or heat issue

since it only happens in the summer for me

also reinstalling windows did fix it like 70% of the time

the other 30% it would work for like 2 weeks to a month then happen again

i really hate this issue never found an actual solution to it

its exactly what it says it is

[zenith hearth]

and it's what

[teal narwhal]

an antimalware service executable

[zenith hearth]

oooh nvm

its anti malware
not antimal ware

how do I make it not consume 200 mb of memory?

[teal narwhal]

i mean end the task tg

[zenith hearth]

can't. no permission

[teal narwhal]

then well you cant do anything about it

[zenith hearth]

okay idk what I did while I was trying to make it use less memory but now I have a VHD

[sinful parrot]

ooups

one of them just got randomly destroyed

[scarlet creek]

This is like the 2nd time I mention it but does anyone else find the game boring and repetitive

I used to wish the game not to be like the gauntlet gamemode but looking back that progression was better

now you can get fully geared up at soldier tier and game becomes a joke

champions are also a joke now

progressing is painfully boring

I didn't even bother completing the baron set because doing the same shit several times is boring as hell

I'm starting to miss the UC

[wary ember]

i agree sadly

[sinful parrot]

the shovel is good

[sinful parrot]

EARLY ACCESS also what does UC mean?

[scarlet creek]

Ultimate challenge, the last level in gauntlet gamemode

Yeah ik it's an ea I just hope they fix that in the future

People focused so much on the optimization issues they ignored the real problems

I DIDN'T KNOW IT WAS U I'M SORRY HI

[scarlet creek]

It's okk

But I'm being serious that stuff is fetish content

[gloomy urchin]

hi

[oak olive]

why

that's just seems so inconvenience

[scarlet creek]

You see

People get turned on when they feel like they're in danger

[gloomy urchin]

what does life have to do to you that you pay rent by doing this

[scarlet creek]

I think the fetish in the video is some form of ero asphyxiation

[scarlet creek]

He might be doing it for the love of the game

[gloomy urchin]

💔

[oak olive]

I don't think he's being asphyxiation tho

[oak olive]

true

His nose is blocked by the plastic wrap and he's pouring liquid into it

[dapper oriole]

Hey gang, last time I was here we had all lost trust in the devs cause they went silent and stopped updates... Is that still the case?

[oak olive]

???

[scarlet creek]

When did this happen

[dapper oriole]

Wdym ???

[dapper oriole]

Aaah couple months ago

[oak olive]

wdym wdym????????

[oak olive]

????????????????

[scarlet creek]

Ohh

[dapper oriole]

Does no one else remember?

[scarlet creek]

Are you talking abt the ea release when everyone got mad at the devs

[oak olive]

it's bcuz theyvwere trying to get thebupdatevout

[dapper oriole]

Like the chica incident it is being wiped out of our minds

[hexed shoal]

how do you reload ur crossbow

[oak olive]

who

[autumn storm]

Hullo all!

[dapper oriole]

Ya, like just after release

[oak olive]

this isn't fnaf buddy

[autumn storm]

From what I’ve seen, with great difficulty (and a quiver)

[scarlet creek]

The ishowmeat chica incident?

[hexed shoal]

how

[oak olive]

markilliers dog

[dapper oriole]

Mhm

[scarlet creek]

Uhh there were some minor hotfixes after release day

[oak olive]

ishoweyes original video

[scarlet creek]

but there have been no updates since february 18th

[dapper oriole]

But it was nothing like the trailer with the blood physics ect

[dapper oriole]

Oh...

Any communication?

Cause that stopped too

[scarlet creek]

Yeah cause something gone wrong in the development and they had to release an earlier build of the game

[dapper oriole]

Have they released the newer version of the game yet?

I haven't been able to play

So

[scarlet creek]

Nope

[autumn storm]

I’ve joined this discord before playing the game, but it looks like EA is just having a lot of growing pains

[dapper oriole]

I dunno

[dapper oriole]

Hm

[dapper oriole]

EA?

[scarlet creek]

Prepare for the exanima experience

[autumn storm]

EA is being treated like what EA used to be, not what it is now in the games industry

[autumn storm]

Early Access

[dapper oriole]

Ooooooh

[autumn storm]

And Half Sword devs have prioritised getting this full gameplay loop and all its content out before many (but not all) technical and QoL changes.

I’m quite sure those changes will come, they just haven’t come yet.

Given that it’s EA, I think that’s okay.

[dapper oriole]

Yea

[autumn storm]

And the demo’s still up isn’t it??

[dapper oriole]

I can't wait for the final game :3

[dapper oriole]

I think

[autumn storm]

For sure

[scarlet creek]

Nah we didn't get what was shown in the trailer and teasers

also the gameplay is boooooringgg ngl

[dapper oriole]

Twas why everyone was mad

[autumn storm]

I’m hoping that in 5 years, they’ll have multiplayer well in the works

[dapper oriole]

There are some cool things

It's not super boring

It does get repetitive once you reach the top

[scarlet creek]

Yeah but the more you progress the more boring it gets

[dapper oriole]

You become kinda unkillable

[scarlet creek]

this

[autumn storm]

A bit tedious it looks like, but that’s why it’s good they have the gameplay loop out

[scarlet creek]

I didnt even bother collecting all baron parts because it's hella boring

[autumn storm]

It 100% needs iteration but I’m hopeful that they will do that iterating

[dapper oriole]

I'm gonna try when I can use my PC again

I have 4 of them

[scarlet creek]

We need some kind of revamp of the UC for the EA

[dapper oriole]

UC???

[scarlet creek]

Ultimate challenge

It was the last level of the gauntlet

[dapper oriole]

Oooooh

[autumn storm]

And I think that’ll also come down the line

They’re treating EA like an open beta imo

Which is fine

[scarlet creek]

Does anyone else hate how you can get op too fast

[autumn storm]

But it should be kept in kind

[scarlet creek]

You can get full kit in soldier tier

[autumn storm]

That does look like an issue yeah

[autumn storm]

Ahh yep

[dapper oriole]

Also the insurance

If you get rich there are no stakes at all

[scarlet creek]

The game became awfully easy ngl

[autumn storm]

Yeah, the safety nets need to either scale in their cost or be toned down in general

[scarlet creek]

Even if you die there's no punishment

you either pay the creepy guy or fight the zombies which is an ez win since they're walking jokes

[autumn storm]

I think I like the idea of them scaling more harshly

[dapper oriole]

Just start again, AND you keep all your insured gear

I feel like insurance should only last one life

Yk?

[autumn storm]

Ooo yes

[scarlet creek]

Also even when you die in abyss you start in the same level

[dapper oriole]

You start again when you die die

[scarlet creek]

😭

[autumn storm]

I’m surprised it doesn’t

[autumn storm]

Really?

Damn

[scarlet creek]

Yep

They took the gauntlet mode criticism too serious

They shouldn't have listened to these mfs, if a game needs to be hard make it hard

[autumn storm]

For first time game devs I get it though

[dapper oriole]

Frrrr

[scarlet creek]

The game being this forgiving doesn't fit half sword at all

[autumn storm]

Yeah

They had the right idea for sure at the start

But I reckon they’re scared of turning away new players which is fair

But I agree the current approach is definitely the wrong one

[dapper oriole]

Making it too easy

[autumn storm]

I tbh am not well-versed in the game, is there a free play/sandbox mode in the current EA?

Because new players who are struggling should be encouraged to faff around there I think

[dapper oriole]

Also is it just me or at the end of the demo (just before EA) the game crashed a LOT and same with the very start of EA

[dapper oriole]

Yea

But it's not very good

[autumn storm]

I see

[dapper oriole]

Could use some improvement

[autumn storm]

So yeah I think that should get patched up

And that’s the best solution imo to new players getting stuck at like beggar and giving up bc they have no toys

[dapper oriole]

You can only face enemies of one level and you have to say how many you want to face and can't change that without exiting

[scarlet creek]

Idk if you guys played the demo but abyss there was actually a challenge

It felt like an actual adventure to get your soul back

now it's kind of just a chore

[autumn storm]

It looks like abyss has really good shock factor the first couple times

[dapper oriole]

Teue

[autumn storm]

But that wears off

[dapper oriole]

Then it just sucks

[dapper oriole]

Yup

[autumn storm]

Especially when you can just pay them off and they don’t feel like a burden

[scarlet creek]

I loved those zombies at first but then realized how pathetic and boring to fight they are

[dapper oriole]

Again, getting rich makes the game too easy

[autumn storm]

Price to pay them off should scale

[dapper oriole]

I miss not fighting zombies and actually fighting compitent ai in the abyss

[dapper oriole]

True

[scarlet creek]

Me too

It actually felt like I deserved getting my soul back

[dapper oriole]

Wait gang challenge idea

Turn the damage you receive to the max and turn the damage you do to min and beat barron

[scarlet creek]

Baron is the biggest fraud ngl

every time I tried to fight him one of my lil mercs had already taken care of his ass

[dapper oriole]

Just take away his hammer with a well timed block and twist then he goes down like a baby

[dapper oriole]

Lmao

I never even knew about mercs until I beat him for the 3rd time

[scarlet creek]

I js use them to finish tourneys faster

[dapper oriole]

Yea

Only time I use them is torney

Guys hear me out

Ensure top tier weapons

Die

Go to bottom tier

Then you can make carnahe

Carnage

It's funny

[scarlet creek]

Carnage still exists??

Tbf last time I played was on the 14th of february so I dont remember really well

[dapper oriole]

No

I mean like

You destroy the bottom tier guys with the insured top tier weapons

[scarlet creek]

uhh but

When you die you remain on the same tier

💔

You can change that with a slider

[dim summit]

i miss the demo bosses

they were such massive bitches but they were my massive bitches

i hope they add and remaster them in the future
the current champions kinda ain't cutting it

[balmy sequoia]

for the end of each tourney we gotta have bosses like in the demo

replace the big champions w the original demo bosses

[dim summit]

i want to feel fear again

anyways
wasn't there smth about adding new quests in the road map?

i wonder what they mean by that

like, are they talking about innkeeper errands or smth else?

[brazen vale]

Openworld halfsword

[dim summit]

dear god

[autumn storm]

Tbh from what I’ve seen of it, I don’t like the look of Retribution

At least not how it works currently

Reward is too high, it’s too straightforward, and it’s underwhelming if you died to someone without much kit

[river oriole]

idk i'm glad the demo bosses are gone

[scarlet creek]

Why

[river oriole]

didn't enjoy fighting them, didn't like how big they were

the new champions aren't too big

the only kinda absurd enemy now is the baron and he's the final boss so its not that bad

[river oriole]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[craggy trail]

That’s called the slums

[frank citrus]

If they had their own lore itd be cool

Otherwise its not really a difference

Randomised boss vs boss that comes with the same kit

[frank citrus]

Lore as in small things like voicelines or maybe even a cool little cutscene

Like knockout

Itd breathe life into tourney

[vestal eagle]

I kind of don't want to see how the peasant tier champion is fighting to make money and go back to his family just for me to do this to him right after

[frank citrus]

I wouldnt mind if ALL of them had nefarious things to do with the money gained from the tourney

[river oriole]

my mind is boggled

[dim summit]

oh hell yeah definitely

i can already think of a lot of potential lore for the bosses

[drowsy finch]

I loooove the new warbond

Halfing my sword

[gloomy urchin]

i wasted an entire fucking day before even checking if its playable on linux

🩷

[sinful loom]

On what,,,

[gloomy urchin]

and its the last day before school so its even worse

[gloomy urchin]

linux!

[sinful loom]

No the game,,

[gloomy urchin]

cod mw 2019

[sinful loom]

what

Why

[gloomy urchin]

im gonna fucking protest and deliberately dedicate my life on cheating in games with kernel anticheats to make developer's lives even more miserable

[sinful loom]

Did you buy it too??

[gloomy urchin]

no lmao im not stupid

[sinful loom]

Ah pirated it

Still that

[gloomy urchin]

we dont talk about that

[sinful loom]

Jesus

[gloomy urchin]

ts pmo

well that confirms it i fucking hate everyone and everybody i hope economy collapses due to ai and google and nvidia

[sinful loom]

Are you sure its not like

The uhh

[gloomy urchin]

im gonna pray for bitcoin to drop to 50$

[sinful loom]

"Software"

[gloomy urchin]

ITS LINUX

I PRACTICALLY RUN A VM TO RUN GAMES

BUT SUCH A VM THAT DOESNT TAKE HALF OF MY DISK

[sinful loom]

Wait nvm linux isnt supported i searched it up

Fuck

Hm

[gloomy urchin]

THE ISSUE IS THAT SOME "KERNEL" "USER SAFETY CONCERNED" ANTICHEATS REFUSE TO LAUNCH ON THAT

I ASSUMED SINGLEPALYER WAS FINE BUT APPARENTLY I HAVE TO LOOK UP ANY GAME NEWER THAN 2018 NOW

[sinful loom]

Krnl gave me a virus on my laptop 😭

[gloomy urchin]

krnl != kernel

[sinful loom]

Shits why i dont exploit or pirate anymore

Wayyy too risky

[gloomy urchin]

I HOPE EVERY CORPO DIES

[sinful loom]

I dont want my main computer to blow up

[drowsy finch]

Why did the rookie and game changer collab 😭

[gloomy urchin]

I HOPE WE REACH THE POINT WHERE ONLY INDIE GAMES MANAGE TO BE PROFITABLE

LET AI DO HEAVY LIFTING AND MAKE AAA GAMES AS CHEAP AS A CHEESEBURGER

[drowsy finch]

I hope we get more AAAA games

[gloomy urchin]

IM GONNA BE EVIL NOW

[sinful loom]

Evil stupid cat idiot

[gloomy urchin]

fucking disappointment

[sinful loom]

I burpo3ed

i got two major things!!

one

sketchbook

and it actually feels better than ibis or krita

[elder pawn]

just use Mircrosoft paint

[sinful loom]

and two: james stewart calculus early transcedentals eighth edition

its not tooo baddd

yaa

[elder pawn]

We all use ibis paint in 2026

[sinful loom]

idk why ibispaint gets such good rep

[elder pawn]

we all eat burgers in vegas in 2026

[sinful loom]

i personally think its janky

[elder pawn]

idk man i’m just saying shit i woke up like an hour ago

[sinful loom]

ms paint?

[daring prism]

blooo bloooblah blah

[gloomy urchin]

nah we got kolourpaint

remember im on linux

[sinful loom]

oooh

i thought microsoft products were available to linux?

guess not

[gloomy urchin]

we get half of decent programs half made in native ui

this is native ui

[sinful loom]

wait are you running ubuntu?

[gloomy urchin]

horrid but cant do nun about it

no ew

guess which distro

[sinful loom]

uhhhh

red hat

[gloomy urchin]

nope

[sinful loom]

mint?

[gloomy urchin]

nope

what distro do people flex about

[sinful loom]

debian? idk

a couple of my linux friends flex having ubuntu

[gloomy urchin]

fine i'll show

[sinful loom]

i died

but im back

i said a bad word

[sinful loom]

anyuways wow

is my signature tuff

[gloomy urchin]

what is the stickman doing

[sinful loom]

what are you imagining

[spice patrol]

ALRIGHT BRO I literally kicked him to death and I lean into his axe last second

😭

[sinful loom]

i mean thats a way of walking i guess

its supposed to be an R and an H

[gloomy urchin]

anyways im gonna cry over cod mw 2019 and give up on modern games and play indie games only

(im not really gonna cry but i hope they fucking die)

wishlist looking pretty neat rn

[sinful loom]

😭

good luck man

[indigo hare]

Linux users deserve all the bad things that come with using Linux

https://tenor.com/view/how-linux-users-install-a-web-browser-linux-linux-users-gif-20223386

[gloomy urchin]

windows users deserve all the ai slop making their ram and gpu more expensive

[gloomy urchin]

how do you make an offline account when installing windows?

[indigo hare]

WAIT, do Linux users not need RAM and GPU

[gloomy urchin]

i clearly didnt say it properly but im not rephrasing it

[indigo hare]

Linux more like

[gloomy urchin]

we have a thing called package manager that allows us install everything with a single sentence

you guys get pre installed ai browser

that throws a tantrum when you want to download chrome

[indigo hare]

Lienux cause people who use Linux lie about it being better, or something

[gloomy urchin]

how do you disable windows defender again?

like permanently

[indigo hare]

So true king so true. Anyway im gonna launch a game to play on windows because it’s just that easy to install and launch with a click of a button and then not having any issues cause it’s not Linux

[gloomy urchin]

ok have fun

im gonna continue watching the world collapse

[river oriole]

its pretty easy

[gloomy urchin]

ohh is it not gonna turn back on after 3 days??

[river oriole]

i've never had that happen no

[gloomy urchin]

well that shit refuses to turn off

[river oriole]

but i also use debloaters and stuff

like ctt and o&o

[gloomy urchin]

ok so what you're saying is your os is a pile of dogshit

but its good if you polish it

a polished pile of dogshit

[river oriole]

im saying i used a program to remove all the stuff i didn't want

if that makes it to dogshit to you, fair enough ig

[sinful loom]

im going to create another disgusting wretched grotesque creature

[river oriole]

if i had to use linux i'd probably just not use a pc

[gloomy urchin]

except gaming linux is just way superior workflow for me

and commands overall

[river oriole]

gaming is the primary thing i use my pc for, so

[gloomy urchin]

oh well

[sinful loom]

erm actually, linus tech tips did a video comparing windows, mac os, and linux distros, and windows came ou8t to be the main thing for all workstation, gaming, and watching videos 🤓

[gloomy urchin]

enjoy i guess

[river oriole]

well, that and blender

[gloomy urchin]

well i had my own research that said proton has superior performance

[sinful loom]

proton vpn?

[river oriole]

linus is only one letter away from linux so he's probably right

[gloomy urchin]

cant confirm that but given that linux is way more light-weight than windows i believe it

[gloomy urchin]

proton is basically a thing that allows us to use windows apps on linux

developed by steam and maintained by the community

[sinful loom]

idk man lots of things are windows nowadays, mac os and linux have many compatibility issues

i dont mind them, i just personally wouldnt use them

[gloomy urchin]

what many things

[river oriole]

most things

[gloomy urchin]

like what

[sinful loom]

games, softwares, uhhh

thats about it

[gloomy urchin]

supporting linux

[sinful loom]

i dont know any else

[gloomy urchin]

takes like a few compilation options added

as far as i know you dont need to do barely anything to support it lol

[gloomy urchin]

what software

[sinful loom]

yeah but like windows is just one click, not extra steps to download something from it

[river oriole]

it's just not worth the trouble for a difference in performance i'll probably not even notice

[gloomy urchin]

i dont remember a single modern software that didnt support linux

[gloomy urchin]

enjoy your windows

[sinful loom]

microsoft apps...

i think

maybe

[gloomy urchin]

since when did microslop ever released anything good

[river oriole]

always have

[gloomy urchin]

ms paint?

[river oriole]

i mean there's a lot of shit that's bad about microsoft ofc

[elder acorn]

Hey what do y'all think of the game so far? I'm thinking of getting it

[river oriole]

its cool

[sinful loom]

word, excel, powerpoint are all pretty good :p

[gloomy urchin]

vscode is like the only good thing they ever did

[sinful loom]

idk i use those a lot tho

[elder acorn]

Great to know I heard some mixed talk about it

[gloomy urchin]

these are just superior

[river oriole]

main problem is gonna be performance unless you've got a really powerful pc

[sinful loom]

mmmm i do have to admit they are better in more typographical features than word.... but still like

the ui is different and weird and i dont really like it that much

[gloomy urchin]

its simple

i hate office ui so much

[elder acorn]

Lol I don't so looks like I'll be waiting for a bit.

[sinful loom]

i mean id use libreoffice wayyy more than word if it werent for its ui

[gloomy urchin]

its stupid

but fine let me change the question

what did microslop release in the last 10 years that was good

except vscode

[sinful loom]

does that count for like microsoft store

[river oriole]

depending on your specs you might be able to run it on low or medium, it still looks pretty good even at those settings

[gloomy urchin]

WHO THINKS MICROSOFT STORE IS GOOD

[river oriole]

i have microsoft store removed from my pc lol

[sinful loom]

because i mean theres good things on microsoft store

[gloomy urchin]

I NEVER USED THAT

I DONT EVEN REMEMBER IT WORKING

[sinful loom]

i mean i dont think its good but the apps in it are

lmao

[indigo hare]

bill gates put together a working OS in the 90’s. Linux has been around for 30 years and is still ass as an actual OS

[sinful loom]

its the only way i was able to get sketchbook

[gloomy urchin]

ok 👍

[indigo hare]

Oh im SORRY are we not discussing Microsoft vs Linux?

[gloomy urchin]

fine its all just preference and my personal hate towards microslop and their slop products

[sinful loom]

also i hate when libreoffice sends like a "waiting for printer connection" btw

[gloomy urchin]

never had that issue

skill issue

[sinful loom]

idk my pc is kinda fucked so

[gloomy urchin]

rEiNsTaLL wiNdOwS

tHaT'Ll fIX iT!!

linux is "idk run these 10 commands"
windows is "idk reinstall the OS"

[sinful loom]

i do have to admit tho, word cannot replicate what libreoffice can

[gloomy urchin]

i didnt even know libre could do that

that just confirms office programms suck ass

literally any industrial standard sucks ass

[sinful loom]

are all linux users just coders? like genuine question lol

[gloomy urchin]

most probably are

some use ubuntu or mint and barely touch terminal

i prefer tweaking and controlling everything i can

[indigo hare]

Linux users usually just go online and find commands to fix there issues They aren’t themselves coders, not majority at least. You don’t need to be a professional coder to use Linux, you just need professional coders to use Linux.

[gloomy urchin]

(my desktop is a topbar with a clock and thats it)

[sinful loom]

ah

[gloomy urchin]

i beg deepseek for commands because i cant remember some of them lol

[sinful loom]

should i spend my money on a drawing tablet or a standing desk ....

[gloomy urchin]

imma be real dealing with usb connections on linux is a bit of a funny story

i cba to do anything about it though

[indigo hare]

A drawing tablet. Just stand at your desk

[gloomy urchin]

easter you think i can overrank you

[sinful loom]

you're british?

[indigo hare]

You can try but I’m #1 in every aspect of life

[gloomy urchin]

no i live in siberia and barely get any siberia debuffs for some reason

[sinful loom]

yeah but like my desk is kinda small and doesnt look that cool

just go to moscow bro :v

[gloomy urchin]

no.

i ain't elaborating

[sinful loom]

why in the world would your parents want to live in siberia

😭

[gloomy urchin]

grandpa was in military

[pale meteor]

I am 50hrs off of hitting 2khrs in halfsword
