Here's my AI generated looking orange 😭

[ruby heart]

Lmao! 🤣 when pets come to inzoi I’m def gonna get a dumb orange cat

I can’t have cats irl because I’m deathly allergic

[median vigil]

thats what i want 1 orange and a pyscat

[median vigil]

thats part of the reason i wont get another cat since mine died afew years ago

i coped for so many years....

with pet dander....

and even when i had dogs as a kid i suffered

[ruby heart]

Yeah I can’t get another dog too sad

[median vigil]

i've enjoyed to an extent being pet free..

i cant say i still dont want a pet i do but

im enjoying the time being pet free

for now

[ruby heart]

Well same it’s very expensive

[median vigil]

my cat cost me a fortune in vet bills towards the end

and they made it long and drawn out finding out what was wrong with her

blood tests and more blood tests

and i felt bad because they kept putting that temp stick up her bum

[worn wolf]

Found a vid

[median vigil]

whos kitty is this

[worn wolf]

Mine 🤣

[median vigil]

such a cute orange

[median vigil]

too cute and so is your laugh

[worn wolf]

This is his fav spot

[median vigil]

hes great something like that in inzoi for me when pets come

i love seeing the oranges in the game

[worn wolf]

Same 🤣

[median vigil]

i use to have a big cat tree like that when i first got my cat

she didnt play on it and i had to get rid 😄

[worn wolf]

He once fell on his fat butt straight off rhe top and IMMIDIATELY got up to sharpen his nails 😭

[median vigil]

atleast yours loves it 😄

[worn wolf]

I laughed to tears 😭

[worn wolf]

My orange loves it, and my black cat used to sleep on the middle bunk

[median vigil]

yeh my tux wouldnt play with it at all

she did sleep in the hammock afew times though

[worn wolf]

Here, found this one

[median vigil]

they are always so full of energy orange cats 😄

[worn wolf]

Yup 🤣

[median vigil]

dont we all wish we had orange cats energy

hahahaha

[worn wolf]

The voice is my gf 👍

Here 💀

[median vigil]

silly 😄

[worn wolf]

I once caught him spinning the beanbag while running sideways 💀

He also loves grabbing my sleeves whe. I walk down the stairs and bite them 💀

[median vigil]

yep they really are as crazy as everyone says and shows 😄

my uncle had an orange dog

and it had no brains 😄

we use to take it while he was on holiday when i was a kid

and it made my other three dogs nutty

while we had it 😄

[worn wolf]

Here's the black one high on catnip 💀

[median vigil]

its the eyes 😄

[median vigil]

black cats are so silky and beautiful though too

[worn wolf]

Yeah, he's pretty chill

Though he now became a grumpy old man 💀

[median vigil]

yep my tux was chill

[median vigil]

thats how they get 😄

[median vigil]

awww bless

[worn wolf]

He was holding onto my thigh for dear life 😭

[median vigil]

orange super strength 😄

[worn wolf]

Oh, that's 100% a south east asian cat 😭

[zenith dirge]

Ahhh the classic orange

[worn wolf]

Idk why, but the strays ive seen there had that face and were smaller than the american ones 💀

[zenith dirge]

All cute, no brain

[ruby heart]

@pliant tree hitomi says Hi

[worn wolf]

So I realized that if EA suddenly charged $1 per sims 4 pack, it'd still cost over $100 to buy everything, which is absolutely atrocious

[lunar elbow]

honestly i'd prefer to spend $100 for a bunch of stuff rather than like 2-3k

[worn wolf]

$100 for a bug riddled game is insane

[lunar elbow]

yeah

[worn wolf]

That's the full price (but keep in mind that most of the packs are on sale rn)

[lunar elbow]

i told a friend that its probably just better to get a bunch of CC rather than get the DLCs

[ruby heart]

LMAO!8

[wheat merlin]

Welp negative cable completely oxidated

All clean..

[worn wolf]

Oh yeah, look what I found the other day

[scarlet hearth]

You can drive a patrol car? saw DLC with non-truck vehicles, looks nice but don't think it's out yet

[lunar elbow]

yeah its not out yet but it's coming

[lunar elbow]

they just announced this today

[tough jolt]

I am looking forward to this game! It reminds me of the Amazing World of Gumball, mixed in with Tomodachi Life, mixed in with Cahaya lol The developer is Filipino and creating the game pretty much as a solo project, he's super talented. You can definitely see the Filipino touches throughout the trailer.

(kinda)

[pliant tree]

[lunar elbow]

sorry to tell you this but it is indeed truck sim...

[pliant tree]

I just dont recognize it. I have over 500 hours in ATS 😄

Welp forum the reason sim players hate inzoi

[pliant tree]

?

[ruby heart]

Oh they just got gangy because it hard to play with graphics

[pliant tree]

Oh havent been paying attention. Shopping for a new SSD its depressing.

[ruby heart]

Oh no why

Is it not compatible

[pliant tree]

No the prices.
One in this machine is failing so I need to get one for when it does.

That and Im not exactly sure which to buy. I 'think' it nvme but

[ruby heart]

Hmm why not ask Best Buy then install yourself

[pliant tree]

Oh Im shopping online Ill put it in myself once I find one. Its easy.

[cunning jacinth]

going through this myself. show us your motherboard? maybe you've got some slots you're overlooking

this is my motherboard. Waffle generously pointed out the two nvme slots I didn't see, one hidden by the GPU and one without a heatsink at the bottom

still gotta tear the case apart to wire an SSD in 😭

[scarlet hearth]

SSD are more durable? the positions are all near hot stuff

[warped hound]

Oo nice!

You didn't ping me so didn't notice the reply 😭

If your monitor support Freesync, you don't necessarily need to have VSync enabled

VSync increases latency by a lot

Freesync gets rid of tearing without increasing latency

[ruby nacelle]

-# hello feral and cazy

[ruby nacelle]

Hello Moore

[wheat merlin]

First day working in permanent store and I ended up bleeding nose.

My Op manager allowed me to start early and finish early. ☺️ He didn’t mind when I start my shift. 😅

[wheat merlin]

Currently I have two brick SSDs and two M.2 cards. Currently the temperature in my case is steady. 🙂

[ruby nacelle]

Iv got 4/5 nvmes

And my motherboard actually has 1 gen 5 NVME slot

[wheat merlin]

[pliant tree]

Im shopping for a new nvme ssd but have no idea how to figure out which I need.

ASRock Z790-C mobo

It says this..
1 Hyper M.2 (PCIe Gen4x4 & SATA3), 3 Hyper M.2 (PCIe Gen4x4), 4 SATA3

NFI what that means.

[shy marten]

For an m.2 nvme I think you just grab one that doesn't break the bank. A nice 1tb or 2tb.

[pliant tree]

Mmm it seems like there are a lot of M2 nvme 'types' to choose from thats what Im saying. I guess Ill just get the winchester disk black.

They sell a ton of those so should be 'reliable'.

[ruby nacelle]

gen 4 is the standard

4X4

[median vigil]

and if you dont love me now you will never love again i can still hear you sayinnnn you will never break the chainnnn🎵

[ruby nacelle]

Sata 3 is SSD

with the black cable

[median vigil]

M.2 2280 PCIe 4.0 x4​ is standard and there is then the fastest m.2 2280 pcie 5.0 x4

[median vigil]

i get why they dont have all the slots gen 5

the nvme is too fking hot for its own good

[ruby nacelle]

yep

[median vigil]

grrrr

[ruby nacelle]

thats another reason why

[median vigil]

the standard had my nvme overheating

had to get a third party

big cooler block

[ruby nacelle]

https://tenor.com/view/xbox-xbox-series-x-smoking-fire-fail-gif-19373998

[median vigil]

so now it sits as cool as the other drives

with its big block on it 😄

thats the only downside

[ruby nacelle]

i just use the stanard heatsync

[median vigil]

i didnt want it to thermal throttle

so i got a big cooler block for it

i wanted to run speed tests all day and night and it not throttle 😄

[ruby nacelle]

i just use the default motherboard ones fore mine

[median vigil]

and that is what i achieved 😄

[median vigil]

yeh i had that one and then i had the sabrent one and then i didnt like that

so i changed it out for a bigger one

thats 4x4 not gen 5

im talking about gen 5

[ruby nacelle]

i know

my friend has a gen 5

[median vigil]

yeh well my gen 5 is as cool as your gen 4

[ruby nacelle]

his stays below 50c

[median vigil]

with the block on

[ruby nacelle]

he has no block on his

[median vigil]

i know my gen 4 doesnt have a block on it

only the gen 5

[ruby nacelle]

gen 5 flames

when is gen 6 flames

[median vigil]

you dont need blocks on gen 4

cause they dont get hot 😄

[ruby nacelle]

not true

[median vigil]

no gen 5 is hot enough for me

[median vigil]

it is true my gen 4 are cool af

[ruby nacelle]

some gen 4's can hit 80C under load

[median vigil]

well thats some peoples bad luck then 😄

[ruby nacelle]

my laptop uses a gen 4 and that drive gets spicy

79c when gaming

even whith a heatsync on it

[median vigil]

thats other peoples bad luck with spicy drives not mine 😄

[ruby nacelle]

[median vigil]

yeh i dont need that 😄

my temps dont go over 60 on the gen 5

[pliant tree]

Where did yall get that SSD health status check thing?

[median vigil]

crystal disk info third party program

[ruby nacelle]

crystaldisk info

[median vigil]

and crystal mark for benchmarking the speed

[pliant tree]

K Ill look for it

[median vigil]

the programs have been going for years

[ruby nacelle]

since the 90s

like prime 95

[median vigil]

yup

[ruby nacelle]

[pliant tree]

Hun says Im good but pretty damn sure its having issues.
For instance a backup the diskimage took 24 hours!

[median vigil]

yeh it could be failing ive had an nvme fail out of nowhere

stuff happens

if it was dying it will just drop dead...

instantly....

[pliant tree]

Yea Im gonna order one to have on hand just in case.

[median vigil]

it will drop dead so fast you wont have time to backup anything off it

thats the nature of the beast 🙁

to make sure everything is backed up on more then one drive

[pliant tree]

Oh Ive been running full backups like once a week. to an external ssd

[median vigil]

i got a replacement nvme drive for free i thought id have to buy another

[pliant tree]

Oh and have a bood drive made too so Im set.

[median vigil]

but my drives run cool so god knows why that drive decided to die

it is what it is 😄

no use crying over spilt milk

[median vigil]

where you even here in the 90s 😄

prime 95 is 30 years old christ lol

bloody hell cinebench is more then 20 year old 💀

thats crazy i didnt know they where that old

[median vigil]

im at 50% campaign completed im slowly getting there but im not rushing why what are you doing 👀

[ruby nacelle]

working on some animations

volcano smoke

wanna see a sample?

photorealistic smoke

real time

[scarlet hearth]

You're making Chernobyl?

[ruby nacelle]

volcano

[pliant tree]

Hes gonna blow his top!

[lunar elbow]

that looks like...something...

[ruby nacelle]

i just realised it

so i deleted it

[spiral kelp]

lmaooooo

[ruby nacelle]

but ya making smoke and fire tanks my pc

[warped hound]

Looks as if someone poured liquid nitrogen on top of it 😭

[ruby nacelle]

my pc crying rn

doing this smoke and fire

then i gotta animate rocks smashing into the ground and breaking up

[warped hound]

Wait, what did I miss 👀

[ruby nacelle]

my smoke cloud uh

looked like something it shouldn't be

[warped hound]

👀

Man, now I'm curious

😔

[warped hound]

How is starcitizen :o

[ruby nacelle]

its good

[warped hound]

I thought about purchasing it ageesss ago

[ruby nacelle]

their single player game comes out this year

squadron 42

[warped hound]

Oh yeah I heard of it

Didn't it get delayed multiple times?

[ruby nacelle]

ya it did due to licening issues

and a lawsuit with crytek

[warped hound]

Wait why?

[ruby nacelle]

because the company only had a licence for 1 game not 2

and they tried to make the 2 games on 1 licence

[warped hound]

What what was the license for?

[ruby nacelle]

they licence to use the crytek engine

[warped hound]

I don't think either of the games use cry engine?

[ruby nacelle]

it did

before the lawsuit

[warped hound]

Oh-

[scarlet hearth]

Looking forward to that

[ruby nacelle]

then they switched it to the abandoned amazon engine

then game got switched to their new star engine

[warped hound]

Lumberyard?

[ruby nacelle]

yep

[warped hound]

Does that mean they switched their engine 3 times 💀

[scarlet hearth]

Ugh... please don't let it be in limbo... the casts and what I saw was impressive

[ruby nacelle]

they did 💀

[warped hound]

That's actually crazy 🙏🏻

[ruby nacelle]

mark strong is in the game to

and a few others

they paid big $$$

for the actors

Henry Cavill is also in it to @scarlet hearth

[scarlet hearth]

Yes I know and uh ahem
-# That also Brad's fav

Gillian and Mark Hamill I might remember the rest if I Google but wanna leave it as surprise if the game did get released

[ruby nacelle]

apparently is due for november 2026

@scarlet hearth

👀

no way

[scarlet hearth]

Uh you said November like a min ago

[ruby nacelle]

i did

then i just checked the website

[warped hound]

That face is gonna give me nightmares 💀

[ruby nacelle]

now they just changed it

they spent 10 years on this game

and still not out

i think they spent more money on this game than gta 6

[median vigil]

Cazy daisy what you doing

[scarlet hearth]

-# Reminds me of the Buffy game switched platform 3 times by the time it came out the story already years late

[median vigil]

My gay guy friend was obsessed with Buffy as a kid 😭🤣

[scarlet hearth]

Same as the show, the 2002 one

[median vigil]

He made me watch the whole series 😭 on box sets

[warped hound]

This is probably the first time I've heard of buffy 😔

[median vigil]

Who hasn't heard of Buffy 😭

[warped hound]

Probably because I'm not american, dunno

[median vigil]

I'm not either I'm British 💀

[warped hound]

Don't embarass me please 🙏🏻

[scarlet hearth]

Oh... the show ended 23 years ago haha, reboot was in production til couple months ago

[median vigil]

Sorry didn't mean to make you feel that 😅

[warped hound]

Nah, I wasn't serious

[median vigil]

Ok good it's hard to know with some people being sensitive 😅

Sometimes I've to walk on egg shells 🤣

Around people

[warped hound]

Oh I can 100% get that, it's especially hard online

[median vigil]

Cazy stop reminding me of my age 🤣

I feel like an old fart when people say that

[warped hound]

Now I feel younger when I shouldn't 😔

[median vigil]

I'm just young and youthful me 💀

I thought I saw a forehead wrinkle the other day so I rubbed some moisturizer into it 🤣

[warped hound]

How old are you

If you don't mind ofc

[median vigil]

41 this year

[pliant tree]

You sure that was your head?

[median vigil]

It looked like a line across my forehead 😔 saw it in the mirror before I showered

[pliant tree]

Pffft dues like half my age!

[median vigil]

Well nobody is as ancient as you here

[warped hound]

And I'm like half her age

🙏🏻

[median vigil]

Don't worry plenty here are the same age as you

And we are a friendly bunch in general

[warped hound]

Fr

I'm genuinely curious if starcitizen runs well on linux 🤔

Does it even have anticheat

[pliant tree]

Dont do it youll be sorry!

SC is like the biggest scam out there. Early access for what.. 10 years now?

[warped hound]

😭

I know!

I just really wanna play something new

And multiplayer games with completely open space are rarity

[lunar elbow]

what about rockstar and gta6? 13 years to make gta6 and apparently they're "on a time crunch"

[warped hound]

Only No Man's Sky scratches that itch

[warped hound]

Thing is, rockstar isn't releasing an unfinishied game in early access

[lunar elbow]

true too

[pliant tree]

Do those games sell 'virtual spaceships' to their players for hundreds.. nay thousands of dollars for a game that is in early release?

[warped hound]

Oh that too

[warped hound]

Btw, rockstar didn't start developing gta 6 until 2020

[lunar elbow]

sounds an awful lot like what is going on with the sims, except it's not in early access

[pliant tree]

Yea they were focused on red dead

[warped hound]

Before gta6, they released RDR2, back in 2018, and then for pc in 2019

[lunar elbow]

which makes sense considering they worked on rdr2

[pliant tree]

RDR2 prob about the greatest game of the genere ever!

[lunar elbow]

definitely

i need to finish my first playthrough of it too lol

[pliant tree]

Only thing is the story is so damn linear it has limited play back potential.

Oh you did not hit the huge shock ending then! No spoilers but itll make you cry!

[lunar elbow]

i already know what happens to poor arthur, dw

[pliant tree]

Speaking of that the ending of Cyberpunk impacted me prob more than any other game Ive played. I mean talk about loosing it all!

[pliant tree]

heh I was talkin about his horse!! /jk

[lunar elbow]

oh-

[warped hound]

I'm gonna try my best to stay spoiler-free for gta6

I'm on pc, so will have to wait for quite some time

[median vigil]

Don't spoil it for me I've not finished cyberpunk🫣

[pliant tree]

Oh they releaseing on platforms first?

[warped hound]

They are releasing solely for Consoles at first

They will eventually release the game for pc

Like they have done with all of their other recent games

[lunar elbow]

as much as i want to get gta6 when it comes out im not sure if i am able to play it on my old xbox one

wait no!

i have a ps5

thats right

provided it releases there...

[warped hound]

It is going to release on PS5 though?

[lunar elbow]

not sure

[warped hound]

PS5 and XBox Series

[lunar elbow]

i would honestly expect it to honestly

since it has a big player base

[warped hound]

Smh, they already confirmed it's coming to ps5 and xbos series

[lunar elbow]

but who knows?

i see

well in that case i'm good

[warped hound]

They haven't confirmed about pc

[lunar elbow]

[warped hound]

Althought iirc, their CEO mentioned PC

[lunar elbow]

funny thing is i've beat GTA5 on my xbox 360 and my old PC

old pc was trash and was laggy when i tried to run LSPDFR

[pliant tree]

Heh saw the other day that Intel wanted 32mb of ram to be a baseline. People lost their stuff!

[lunar elbow]

yeah no

[warped hound]

Yo!
https://wiki.starcitizen-lug.org/

There's literally a group dedicated into starcitizen for linux

[warped hound]

What's LSPDFR?

[lunar elbow]

Los Santos Police Department and Fire Rescue or something, i forgot what it is

essentially lets you play as police in GTA5

[warped hound]

Oh-

That's kinda cool

[lunar elbow]

Oh no, it's Los Santos Police Department First Response

from the official site

[warped hound]

Very interesting

I can't really think of a reason to ever move to ocnsoles tbh xD

Maybe price?

But that's about it

[lunar elbow]

i guess it's easier to play sports games on controller

[warped hound]

You can always use a controller on pc though

[lunar elbow]

i tried 2K24 on my PC, controls are really hard

[lunar elbow]

true

[warped hound]

And the option for controllers is immense

[lunar elbow]

yeah

[median vigil]

It's what I do play with controller on RPG

[warped hound]

I'm considering purchasing another controller soon

[median vigil]

Play inzoi with mouse and keyboard though

[warped hound]

Probably one from GameSir,

[scarlet hearth]

My kb can't press some keys together so it's a bit difficult

[warped hound]

Cyclone 2 looks nice

[scarlet hearth]

-# I always wonder what DualSense thing is like..

[warped hound]

I like to use controller in games where your movement is tied to how far away you push the joystick xD

[scarlet hearth]

Like the walk to run thing?

[warped hound]

You move slowly if you push it lighly for example, and you start running if you push harder

[warped hound]

Very much so!

[median vigil]

I've got Xbox controller with Bluetooth connection but my other controller has better signal because it uses 2.5 wireless less latency

[warped hound]

I liked playing Stray (the cat game) on controller

[scarlet hearth]

How about USB?

[median vigil]

It is USB 2.5 wireless

[warped hound]

Ooh, the 2.4Ghz frequency thing using USB?

[median vigil]

Connection

Yes

[warped hound]

I see!

Yeah it's always faster that way, when compared to bluetooth

[median vigil]

Less latency is that

[warped hound]

Which has very high latency

[median vigil]

Yep

[warped hound]

And direct connection using USB offers even less latency

[median vigil]

True I have the option to be fully wired also

[warped hound]

I could buy any controller rn, but I wanna have one with TMR / hall effect sticks

[median vigil]

Mine has hall effect sticks

[warped hound]

That's so cool :o

[median vigil]

They switch out

[warped hound]

Oo

Steam Controller looks nice tbh

But I'm not gonna get it 'cuz of the low polling rate

I was really excited for it

[median vigil]

It does for people who like track pads on their controller

However I'm not that person 😂

[warped hound]

Yeah, especially when playing PC specific games

[median vigil]

If I'm gonna need a track pad I'd rather keyboard and mouse 😂

[warped hound]

I would have liked it 😭 I think the concept of touchpads is cool

[warped hound]

You ain't wrong!

I just think multitasking would be easier

[median vigil]

I hated laptop touch pads but I'm just funny like that 🤣

[warped hound]

If I'm on laptop, I NEVER use touchpad

I just stick with a physical mouse 👍🏻

[median vigil]

That's how track pads on a controller feels to me 😁

Alien 😂

[warped hound]

I can see that xD

[median vigil]

Yeh I can't get use to them but it's cool to have i guess😅

[warped hound]

nods

[median vigil]

Yeh that's low polling would be a problem for me

[warped hound]

Fr

Especially when playing wireless

[median vigil]

Some people won't notice it though and I envy them 🤣

[warped hound]

Yeah 😭 Some are more latency sensitive than others

[median vigil]

I notice the latency shift when using frame gen in games

Sometimes I can ignore it

Depends on the game

[warped hound]

Ooh

Yeah, framegen often almost doubles the latency

[median vigil]

Say like I notice th double of the latency in some games

In other games it doesn't bother me

[warped hound]

I think latency matters a LOT for competitive games though

[median vigil]

It matters to me still in single player games 🤣

[warped hound]

😭

Wired is probably the best option for you, for minimal latency!

[median vigil]

It's the camera angles when I move and shift

I feel the latency

[warped hound]

Hmm, could it be motion-smoothness?

Like, there's mouse-smoothness

[median vigil]

Usually turn it off in the games that let me

[warped hound]

Ahhh

[median vigil]

And depth of field

[warped hound]

What about motion-blur

[median vigil]

Yeh turn it off

[warped hound]

I hate it

🙏🏻

[median vigil]

Some games still have it by default and you can't turn it off

I notice 😭

[warped hound]

Motion blur is like someone put vaseline on my screen

[warped hound]

That's so annoying when games do that!

[median vigil]

Being sensitive to motion

Lol

Motion in the ocean huh 😂

[median vigil]

It is

[warped hound]

I play a game quite often with strangers

And if they're on console, whenever I tell them they can turn off motion blur, they are shocked

😭

[median vigil]

Sometimes I feel the latency shift in inzoi

[warped hound]

They are like "WTF, it looks SO better now"

[warped hound]

Could it be Vsync?

You should make sure it's turned off

[median vigil]

Vsync off I never have it on

[warped hound]

Ahhh

[median vigil]

I'd rather have tearing

Then use that

But my tv has vrr

[warped hound]

Oh nice!

[median vigil]

Oled yeh

[warped hound]

VRR is a life saver

Really annoying dealing with the tearing artifacts

[median vigil]

It's not as bad as latency for me 🤣

That's the biggest one for me

[warped hound]

😭

Thing is, monitors and tvs also have latency

[median vigil]

Yeh they do oled has minimal though

[warped hound]

Very true!

OLED have wayyy less latency than IPS

[median vigil]

I use to play on an old crt back in the day

And nothing will beat that 😭

[warped hound]

😭

DON'T REMIND ME PLS

I've been through that myself

[median vigil]

I threw my crt out because LCD was suppose to be better

And like hell it was 😭

I got sold a lie back then and bought into it

[warped hound]

I don't think anything can beat the latency of CRT

[warped hound]

😔

[median vigil]

Perfectly good crt into the skip 😂

Everyone back then wanted flat screens

It was all the rage 🤣

[warped hound]

Crazy, we had our CRT until 2008

[median vigil]

I had a crt TV and crt monitor at one point 😭

Then the lcds flat screens came

Plasma

3d tv

What a load of crap 🤣

Anyway what can you do

[median vigil]

You did well holding one till then 😭

I got told to get rid cause it's heavy 😂

[warped hound]

😭

[median vigil]

My mom said think of how much lighter the desk will be without a crt on it 😭🤣

Hahaha

I remember that

And don't I want a bigger screen

[median vigil]

Now I game on my 55 inch oled

[scarlet hearth]

I'm using ancient monitor and looking for new one

[median vigil]

I feel like im inside the game though it's immersive

[scarlet hearth]

Well at 4k or so I imagine it doesn't look pixelated

[warped hound]

That's a huge jump

[median vigil]

It's sharp yeh good

[median vigil]

I started out on a crt so yes

[warped hound]

XD

Damn right

[median vigil]

My eye sight isn't getting better and I don't know if I can go back to small screens no more 🤣

I do like ultra wide monitors though

[warped hound]

I can relate.. when it comes to eyesight

[median vigil]

But only if they are like 45 inch🤣

[scarlet hearth]

-# How large your phone is?

[median vigil]

I have two phones one for banking only and the other for personal

Anyway I did have a big phone but now I have a 6.2

So it's just right 😁

[warped hound]

There used to be time when... 6.2 was considered too big

[median vigil]

Yeh it was when I had the first iPhone 🤣

[warped hound]

😭

[median vigil]

That was Tiny

[warped hound]

Fr it was

[median vigil]

Little iPod touch 😭

[warped hound]

😔

[scarlet hearth]

https://tenor.com/view/snake-nokia-3310-snake-nokia-3310-gif-1504875132242584968

[median vigil]

Had the Nokia tank 3310

Had a Nokia Ringo too one of the very first ones 🤣

Had phones on the symbian net work 🤣🤣

Before Android and iOS was a thing

Had windows phones too

Been through a ton of phones over the years

[median vigil]

I remember when I played flash centipede on a crt computer 🤣

One of the very first pcs

I ever had

And my mom was always watching me like id break it 🤣

[warped hound]

Have you ever had a blackberry?

[median vigil]

No I never had a blackberry I stuck to symbian phones for awhile

And flip phone Motorola razor

[warped hound]

I see!

[median vigil]

I liked all the apps I could get on my symbian phone

And the camera on my Nokia n82

Old memories are flooding me now 😭

The phone had a proper flash 😭

[warped hound]

I feel more younger than I should 😔

[cunning jacinth]

phone flash, or the ability to play flash games. I needed one or the other growing up xD

[cunning jacinth]

same. I'm approaching 40 and feel 32

27 some days

[warped hound]

😭

[median vigil]

Yeh Its something I treasure

Memories

[scarlet hearth]

-# That's specific

[median vigil]

I'm 41 this year 😭

In like four months 😭

Time flys I was only celebrating my 40th yesterday 🤔

[median vigil]

Some days I feel 80 some days 20

All depends if I had a good sleep

Or if my stomach isn't playing up

And I'm not on my period 🤣

Or if someone upset me that day

Anyway let's move on 🤣

[median vigil]

Young people keep me young on Here but if I had kids I would probably feel old 🤔

Having kids ages you

Probably why I'm youthful I don't have any

[violet sentinel]

:0

[median vigil]

What does that say 🤔

Yuna: I can't go 🤔

[scarlet hearth]

Love the soundtrack

[ruby nacelle]

-# cazy cakes

[violet sentinel]

yes

[median vigil]

What's the context of the story 🤔

[pliant tree]

Yuna has issues

[violet sentinel]

meow

[pliant tree]

Pulls out the 30,000 page book of FF lore.. here you go.

[median vigil]

That long huh okay well I won't have you explain it

[pliant tree]

I did already... Yuna has issues 😄

[median vigil]

What kind of issues 🤔 the commitment kind 🤔

Now you are making me want to look into the lore 😂

I'll just take the quick summary

30,000 pages is abit much

[pliant tree]

Well first of all you will need to find which version of Yuna that is 😄

[violet sentinel]

I like parts 7, 8, 15, 16 better

[median vigil]

Some kind of different time lines 👀

[scarlet hearth]

Or maybe watch playthrough on YouTube

[median vigil]

Yeh for a quick summary

[median vigil]

Abit like you who's watching videos of Samson 😁

But you don't get the real feel till you play it

[scarlet hearth]

Always when deciding what to buy

[median vigil]

Everyone has their opinions on it 😁

But you won't know till you try it

[pliant tree]

Yea FF Lore is pretty uhh complex and goes back decades. Way to much to cover here.

[median vigil]

Ok I'll look into it sometime not now I'm getting ready to go to bed

Had a late night last nite

[pliant tree]

Fun fact. the Original game was called "Final Fantasy" because the creator thought it would be the last one. That was in 1987.

[median vigil]

Yeh I watched a few pragmata videos

Diana and Hugh 😁

[median vigil]

Yeh I heard something like that before but I never played it

Same with monster hunter wilds

[scarlet hearth]

-# Still have to try World

[median vigil]

I think I was wrapped up in other games when they came out

[pliant tree]

Been having fun with this.

[median vigil]

I love tennis games too

It's from playing ping pong 😂😂 years ago

[pliant tree]

Heh.. this one is new called tennis elbow 2 or something. Its challenging and has good depth to career mode as well as online play.

Oh osrry Tennis elbow 4

[median vigil]

3d tennis on my phone 😂😂

Just quick games on the go

Tennis clash

[median vigil]

Played abit of Mario tennis too

[scarlet hearth]

Same I like tennis and golf games

[pliant tree]

Yea te4 is not for casual 🙂

[median vigil]

Mario tennis on the switch 🤔

[scarlet hearth]

-# Used to play rhythm games a lot and doing great with speed but not anymore

[median vigil]

I use to play tap tap revolution on my iPhone way back in the day 🤣🤔

Had all the packs of songs

[median vigil]

I also use to play house of the dead on the arcade machine at the cinema 🤔

It had a gun 😁

I had it on sega too but with just controller

[median vigil]

I'm only interested in casual play 🤣

And a quick session of pool now and again

Quick vampire survivors sess 😁 I say quick but I'm on toilet for ages when I play that 🤣

Back in the day it was bringing a magazine and newspaper to the toilet with you

[wary jetty]

There’s this relatively new game called Temtem: Swarm. It’s very Vampire Survivors-coded. Kinda grindy, but it’s my new addiction before dozing off for the nite.

[median vigil]

And now it's the phone 😔🤣

[median vigil]

Yeh I'm addicted to enough phone games 😁

[median vigil]

I'm still addicted to crossy roads 💀

[wary jetty]

Haha some you can't even tell whether they're phone graphics or str8 out from steam

[median vigil]

I use to be addicted to candy crush but I weened myself off it

And now don't play it

[median vigil]

I know I got hooked on phone games like that in the past 🤣

I won't do it now

It has to be a quick game

[median vigil]

Netmarble had some games that hooked me 😭

But I escaped

PC games are where it's at

And more worth while in the long run

[wary jetty]

I’m so glad most of the internet-PC gaming has mostly grown out of FOMO culture.

[median vigil]

Usually only play them when on toilet or waiting for appointments

[median vigil]

Don't speak too soon 🤣

There's always the next fomo

[median vigil]

There will be fomo when dlss 5 comes out 🤣

And GTA 6 on ps5

And not on PC straight away 🤣

And there's fear of missing out because Inzois not on ps5 yet

And everyone keeps asking when 😁

YouTubers will drum up the fomo too

The fear of missing out of memory because ai was taking it all

Fomo is always just around the corner 🤔😁

[warped hound]

Fomo is the worst

[worn wolf]

More characters

She's giving them a ghost show and tell 😭

[cunning jacinth]

"so this is what happens after death, and literally none of it is good so here I am!"

[pliant tree]

That is so cute!

[zenith dirge]

is Star Citizen out yet?

[cunning jacinth]

10 years. it's not out yet

pragmata looks cool

[ruby nacelle]

Dath standing

[reef vine]

the dead zone is free on youtube?! the christopher walken movie!! i might have to watch that soon, never saw it and always had an interest

[zenith dirge]

I'm glad I only blew chump change on that thing

[faint blade]

Whyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy is it snowing nooooooow???

🤬

[shy marten]

I think that's a mistake on Rockstar's part but I doubt the game will be finished on release. Apparently some devs are reporting working until 3am to force the game to come out without another delay.

[near oak]

i hope everyone has a beefy enough PC for Paralives later this month

[reef vine]

watchin' the dead zone with christopher walken
i am not prepared for this cast of hot men lol

both the protag and villain are hot lmao

[scarlet hearth]

I don't think that's available here...

[reef vine]

tubi

walken? hot. martin sheen? hot.
lol

[scarlet hearth]

-# I think Michael Sheen definitely a better looker if you go by their last name 😂

[reef vine]

both michael and martin are hot!

[scarlet hearth]

-# Charlie?

[reef vine]

christopher walken is so SO 🔥 in this

It’s warm today 😄

Definitely juicy gossip 🤔

[radiant swan]

[tough jolt]

I wanted to try that one

[pliant tree]

Well I can tell you its nothing like the video they released. Its more like truck simulator but busses, schedules and stuff.
It seems fun but not what I expected.

[worn wolf]

I regret nothing 😭

[zenith dirge]

Ooooh how do I get one?

[ruby nacelle]

i used an app

[lunar elbow]

time to get started on discovering iowa

first things first taking some flour from Des Moines to Dubuque

[zenith dirge]

What app?

[lunar elbow]

not an app, but rather a game

American Truck Simulator

[ruby nacelle]

windhawk @zenith dirge

[lunar elbow]

oh crap, wasn't talking to me i see lol

my god what is this

[verbal gulch]

Ah sweet! Bills made it into Para's early access 😍

[ruby nacelle]

hey @lunar elbow

[lunar elbow]

hey

[ruby nacelle]

did the final tweaks

[lunar elbow]

nice

[ruby nacelle]

this looks way cleeaner than the standard ui

[ruby heart]

Hmmm

[verbal gulch]

Abit strange they mentioned bills in the announcement 😅

[ruby heart]

Maybe it’s separate bills 😮

[verbal gulch]

doubt it, it sorta looks like they needed a filler for the live part of the announcement lol

[ruby heart]

Lmao!

[lunar elbow]

i cant wait to be driving down highways like this with cars

just flat highways and whatnot

[ruby heart]

In GTA 6?

[lunar elbow]

nah, American Truck Sim

[ruby heart]

Ah

[lunar elbow]

although i want GTA 6 too

[verbal gulch]

GTA 6 When!?!

[ruby heart]

In our lost hopes and dreams

[lunar elbow]

hopefully when they actually say it will come out

[verbal gulch]

Factsss 🤣

[lunar elbow]

well wheres south english then?

[scarlet hearth]

Modding tools...

Can you go off the road in ATS?

[lunar elbow]

i guess?

not into fields, but there are some roads that are dirt

and you can also go into the grass

like i just did

cuz i took a turn too fast

[ruby heart]

Whats with the Internet forums today. Everyone is getting butt hurt everywhere I go 😮

[cunning jacinth]

ID laws kicking in places?

how are we doing, everyone?

[warped hound]

Windhawk?

[ruby nacelle]

Ya

[shy marten]

Anyone playing NTE?

[radiant swan]

I am but might put it on hold keep crashing in menus

[shy marten]

On mobile? I haven't crashed once on PC. The game runs really well at least on PC.

[radiant swan]

im playing it on pc as well the game crashes in the menu constantly for me specifically whenever i try to roll for a character or just switch my team around

[wheat merlin]

I knew I've entered to medical clinic is a trap and pay. No prescription needed when I was fully diagnosed.

Dah I miss my original GP.

[reef vine]

Started Fallout, the show. It's OK so far, I'm not exactly hooked yet although I do like the Ghoul a lot. It certainly didn't help matters that within the first 20 minutes there was an um 'honeymoon' scene which I thought was really gross. Lmao

[cunning jacinth]

imagine knowing the same 60 people your entire life. things would happen when new people are introduced. but anyway xD

[reef vine]

Huh?

Oh lol

[cunning jacinth]

I forget names but vaultie hits on it a couple times

[reef vine]

Yeah it's not my thing to do that sort of nonsense lol
ESPECIALLY that part with the uhh curtains was disgusting, glad ||that guy was a raider so my disgust was fully justified||

[cunning jacinth]

yeah full righteous hate

[reef vine]

xD

Only saw the first ep, but love Cooper/the Ghoul and Lucy is alright. Maximus and Dane too

[cunning jacinth]

raiders/bandits = criminal scum and I only tolerate them if I am one in a videogame

[cunning jacinth]

imo you're gonna like it

[reef vine]

awesome

I could have just definitely done without the um love scene lol

The actors are great, omg some of the minor characters are played by such great actors

Kyle MacLaughlin and that older man from Mr Robot for instance

It was driving me nuts trying to figure out who the old man from the Brotherhood was XD
And then it hit me - he was from Mr Robot

The replies went..... as well as they could when it comes to sims 4 💀

To the tune of: the sims 4 is 💩

[jovial tulip]

when the early access game already has more free content plus a free DLC for early players instead of paying 2k of real currency just for a hamster than needs another DLC to work first 💀

[worn wolf]

My dude, the sims 4 has been in early access since 2014 😭🙏

[jovial tulip]

Still, they put so much stuff behind a million paywalls when InZoi is having it free

💔

Like businesses

[worn wolf]

Or changing tables 💀

Like, imagine actually charging $40 for changing tables 😭

For virtual ones that is 💀

[jovial tulip]

40$ Just to have seasons

and i thought that was normal when sims 4 monopolized the genre

[worn wolf]

$40 for cats and dogs and an extra $20 for hamsters 💀

[jovial tulip]

of course the only thing we had was bad

EXACTLY

And hamsters don't even work without cats and dogs 😔

i wonder what updates the Sims will make to autonomy in 4? no simulation lag?

[pliant tree]

None.. really, who cares?

[near oak]

i never truly enjoyed Sims 4 bc of the simulation lag and haven't played it in years. but if they fix that i might be interested in redownloading. won't hold my breath tho

i miss Sims. i can play the older games i guess

[pliant tree]

I still play it on occasion but right now its not even installed.

Had to take stuff off so a backup would fit on the external drive and Sims was like the first to go! 😄

[ruby heart]

My sister is so annoying sometimes tired of her princess act 😭

I’m not her personal assistant

He's right. Sims 4 will just take up space 🤷🏼‍♀️

I got D4 + both DLC for Steam.
The very unfortunate twist: I bought the base and first DLC on Battle.Net when they first came out 💀

At least I'm pretty sure I got both of those on sale. And the Steam ones are on sale as well but 💀 Delayed Steam releases are just ugh

Mf, I was right about EA hyping up a paywalled feature from growing together coming for free with the update 😭

However, my dumbass was wrong about the object. I was giving them WAY too much credit and saying it'll be the changing the table. Of course they chose literally the only object without any new animations 😭😭😭

Aka the playmat 💀

[scarlet hearth]

Hmm wonder hows Paralives at release ah just saw release date of 25

[reef vine]

dreading it

i know i wont like it for sure and i have a Fear

[scarlet hearth]

Didn't know you play Diablo

[reef vine]

i did one playthrough a long while back of 4

now that i have it on steam i started over lol

goodbye rupert the rogue hello rupert the paladin xD

ill screenshot him

[scarlet hearth]

Huh? you can create your own char in 4?

[reef vine]

yup

[scarlet hearth]

I'm waiting for dlc for 2 to discount

[reef vine]

its on it

i think

i bought the pack of everything today

game and 2 packs

its really nice, but ive never played a diablo before 4 so im missing out on 'they ruined the lore' lmao

but ye the game for sure is on sale
im pretty sure the pack was too

oh it wasnt, i was thinking it seemed not as expensive because it comes with the first pack too (it was a rebuy thank you late steam release 💀 )

[scarlet hearth]

2 have a lot of nostalgia for me so gonna be playing remastered next year or so

[reef vine]

niceee

[scarlet hearth]

I'm way behind in every games though...

[reef vine]

same

[scarlet hearth]

Nyami~ do you think it's possible to add screen effect to your juice mod?

I'm trying custom interactions on switches and object animations etc. and seeing something in data editor thinking... your mod would be perfect for screen post process during buff period (find example of dying zoi or maybe other)

[reef vine]

I don't know

im watching fallout and ep 2 is SO much better than 1

[reef vine]

literally a million times better xD

how tf is the ghoul kinda hot
