Astronomy Pic of the Day: Expanding Plume from DARTs Impact

Click here for video

Explanation: What happens if you crash a spaceship into an asteroid? In the case of NASA's DART spaceship and the small asteroid Dimorphos, as happened last week, you get quite a plume. The goal of the planned impact was planetary protection -- to show that the path of an asteroid can be slightly altered, so that, if done right, a big space rock will miss the Earth. The high brightness of the plume, though, was unexpected by many, and what it means remains a topic of research. One possibility is that 170-meter wide Dimorphos is primarily a rubble pile asteroid and the collision dispersed some of the rubble in the pile. The featured time-lapse video covers about 20 minutes and was taken from the Les Makes Observatory on France's Reunion Island, off the southeast coast of southern Africa. One of many Earth-based observatories following the impact, the initial dot is...

[dry bison]

https://tenor.com/view/goodnight-dreams-sleep-night-bed-gif-5649356

I actually went to sleep early and woke up after I accidentally punched the end table near my bed by accident

It was a weird dream. I vaguely remember it but the dream kept persisting. Had something to do with VR

I'd wake up, then go back to sleep and wake up a few times

First time I ever hit anything in my sleep

[steady vale]

Yeah I leave and reenter dreams continously when the plot is adventurous. It's rare for me to have enjoyable dreams, so I get kind of addicted when they happen.
I don't think I've ever hit anything.

[tight jackal]

Ouch.

[dry bison]

I didn't have any ibuprofen left so I've been just living with a really bad headache

It was not fun

It's almost gone now

I suspect the headache had a significant impact on the nature and volatility of my dreamstate

[steady vale]

Definitely. I had some weird dreams the last couple days while dealing with back pain.

Food also heavily affects my dreams. Whenever I eat ramen or other high sodium foods I have nightmares.

[dry bison]

I was thinking of old timey ways people must've dealt with headaches. Cold compresses, unconsciousness seemed to be the best for me

[somber falcon]

Herbs

Hebal medicine

[steady vale]

Yea

[dry bison]

When I say old timey I mean before medicine

[steady vale]

I think they used sleepy time rocks

[dry bison]

Just hit me with the roooock!

DO YOU SMELELELELELE

[somber falcon]

I think they used certain herbs as painkillers. Just like how some alternative medicine folk use them.

[dry bison]

Granted but I have no access to herbs or an apothecary

[steady vale]

There's probably some rocks outside

[somber falcon]

With herbs I don't just mean weed

[dry bison]

unless you mean dill or paprika it doesn't matter

Wait

No

I'm lying! I do have an herb I just looked up that I could've used!

Willow

It mentions willow

You were t-posing to a girl?

That's weird af

I am weird

it's my friend

we're pretty weird too

[dry bison]

Does she know you're a broken NPC?

[mint spear]

I am not broken

I am the one who breaks

[dry bison]

"Look at me. I'm cyberpunk on launch!"

[steady vale]

Pfft everyone is broken.

[dry bison]

t-poses

This is true

Being broken makes it easier to fit together

[steady vale]

I use peppermint, I'm not sure if it actually helps, but its very relaxing n refreshing

[mint spear]

sleep is good

I love sleeping

[somber falcon]

I used valerian against anxiety.

[mint spear]

I hug ny pillow when sleeping

my*

[dry bison]

Does it grant you permanent buffs?

[mint spear]

makes me not feel alone so yea :0

its a buff to me

[dry bison]

Valerian is great for potions in Kingdom come

Any time I play the game I spend the first 15 mins just picking all the valerian from the noob town. Boosts you a full strength level

[steady vale]

Looks like it helps with a lot of other stuff too. I've never tried to calm my anxiety with herbs before, probably something I should consider trying.

[mint spear]

💀

[somber falcon]

You shouldn't take valerian on an empty stomach tough because it can make you feel nauseous then.

[mint spear]

put it in your food

[frosty hawk]

Only 14 gigs to update

Wonderful

updating hello kitty online?

[frosty hawk]

Poptropica on an iPod but close 😜

[steady vale]

Does it severely affect your mental state? Tbh anxiety and depression medications scare me, along with anything else that heavily affects the mind.

[mint spear]

gigachads play it and dont care what people say

[dry bison]

Any product franchise supported by the one lord Deadpool gets my bum of approval

[steady vale]

I also worry about becoming addicted to stuff. Almost became a alcoholic, or I was one briefly, because I enjoyed the moments of freedom away from my daily depression n anxiety. Did not enjoy the aftermath.

🙃 sry about rambling, I got a bit nervous talking about it

[dry bison]

Never been addicted to anything but the computer.

Sometimes I get compulsive about things though!

Like the toilet seat.

It's not just the seat that needs to go down, ladies! THE LID TOO!

Protect the world from backsplash when flushing by putting the lid down

Nobody wants poo particulates in their toothbrush

[steady vale]

Yeah, I'm super obsessed with not touching stuff in the bathroom. Lid must always be down when flushing.

[night bobcat]

You keep your toothbrush in the bathroom?

[steady vale]

I don't 😃

[night bobcat]

Woot

[wet pollen]

Gotta keep it in the toothroom

[night bobcat]

That's right

[dry bison]

No. I keep my toothbrush in the garden shed with the tools. The poo particulates get around.

The toothroom...ugh

There's a nightmare

[wet pollen]

Lol sorry

[dry bison]

Could've been worse. Could've been "the Pauly Shore room"

Yeah, good game, watched Ceryn play

[silent wagon]

I should replay it

[night bobcat]

Weird game, I liked

[night bobcat]

That level was wild

So gross lol

[steady vale]

I would've enjoyed playing, but I already struggle with playing the games that I'm extremely interested in. Not because they're challenging, it's just a mental state thing

My cat sounded like he was unleashing a waterfall in the litterbox

[dry bison]

That's an interesting way of saying your cat pees loud

Does he moan obnoxiously while doing it?

[steady vale]

Nah, but he's chirping at me now

[dry bison]

He wants he pee reward

"I peed. Gimme peetreat"

Come see ma pee, woman

[steady vale]

He does love attention

He's kind of pathetic

He requires baby talking

[mint spear]

💀 💀 💀

[ember pasture]

Anyone here planning to play Marauders?

[steady vale]

I discovered it after we acquired the dog. Benzi gets so excited and obsessed when I speak to him like he's a dumb idiot baby. It causes him to excessively nurse on blankets or chomp on random things.
My other cat does not require that sort of attention thankfully

[dry bison]

I saw the videos of it. Doesn't look like my jam. I expected it to have space combat and combat in ships but it looks like the space parts are all just cinematic preludes

[night bobcat]

What's that?

[ember pasture]

Looks like space Escape From Tarkov, according to the store page

[night bobcat]

What's Escape from Tarkov

[ember pasture]

Wait Gleam, you don’t know what’s Escape from Tarkov?

[steady vale]

I don't know either

[ember pasture]

Eh, it’s kinda niche anyway, it’s a hardcore looter shooter game

With a sprinkle of MMO

[steady vale]

I don't like sprinkles

[ember pasture]

Brb

[steady vale]

You better not be getting sprinkles >:[

Sugar sprinkles are okay

It's those chalky lil shit sprinkles that suck

[somber falcon]

My cat does that too.

The worst is when they eat your hair and then the next day or so they fly around the room with a poop train

[ember pasture]

No knight, I got a heavy rain

Poop train. Sounds like a Black Sabbath senior citizens song

It's just a turd on a thread.

Nope

Well this blows. This FO76 shit on prime is exclusively for the Microsoft Store

Who the f plays FO76 from the microsoft store? Even Bethesda doesn't recommend it.

They switched over to steam

[cold patio]

Good luck telling him to get down

[elder shale]

Honestly, this is straight NSFW lol

[night bobcat]

What

People are frigging weird

[cold patio]

Actually, just grab him and yeet him. I always do that with my cats

[steady vale]

Yeah he's not listening. He's currently on my blankets and his arms are on my arms

[hallow isle]

I'm sorry I couldn't find any pictures of clothed cats, they were all naked

[steady vale]

I don't yeet my cats

[elder shale]

you what

[hallow isle]

I love that people actually care about this

[night bobcat]

Hahaha

[cold patio]

I just grab my cat and throw him off my bed

[elder shale]

You... throw him

[cold patio]

Yes

He doesn't get hurt

I always check his paws after that

[steady vale]

He's also glaring at the tablet. So I think he's judging all of you.

[hallow isle]

I think there was also a company that was selling asshole stickers for dogs

That might have been satire tho

It's hard to tell

[steady vale]

I want butt stickers

[night bobcat]

And butt crack hiders for humans

[elder shale]

That's just a butt plug

[night bobcat]

Nah

Not the hole, the crack

Like when your pants slip down a bit back there

[steady vale]

I dunno how people don't notice

[elder shale]

That's just called underwear

[night bobcat]

Me either

[night bobcat]

Nope

[steady vale]

I remember seeing a lot of crack at school

You'd think there would be a breeze or something

[hallow isle]

Crack spakle! I think that was an SNL skit

[elder shale]

I saw a lot of the other kind of crack.

Not really, but we did get some drug dealers trying to sell kids drugs sometimes.

When you say throw, do you mean pick him up and put him down or actually ragdoll throw the cat.

[cold patio]

I mean the cat doesn't seem to mind, but can just drop him.

https://youtu.be/_k1BY3m5tmg

Also who remembers this

https://youtu.be/eYdUZdan5i8

[steady vale]

For me, seeing a cat plopped or thrown is startling, but it's because we have a cat that is diabetic. Her legs can be a bit weak or shaky, so we're very careful with her.

[hallow isle]

Apparently she still gets people abusing her in the street

[steady vale]

I've seen this video. She's a fucking bitch.

[pure sinew]

I haven't and won't. Don't need people like that in my life, even my internet life

[hallow isle]

100%

[hallow isle]

Didn't even live on the street

Just walked up to a random cat and threw it in a random bin

[steady vale]

Some humans are absolute pieces of shit.

[elder shale]

Animal abuse is treated as a crime here; get jail time and shit.

[hallow isle]

She didn't get jail as the cat was unharmed, just pissed

But did get a fine

"I don't know what came over me, but I suddenly thought it would be funny to put it in the wheelie bin, which was right beside me. I did it as a joke because I thought it would be funny. I never thought it would be trapped. I expected it to wriggle out of the bin."

[steady vale]

Doubt

[hallow isle]

"OK, I shouldn't have done it, but it's just a cat at the end of the day. I don't think I deserve to be hated by people all over the world, it was just a split second of madness."

Just a cat

[pure sinew]

"just a cat at the end of the day". 😡 😡 😡

[elder shale]

Holy shit, so through my company I got free tickets to Web Summit. WHY DID THE E-MAIL END UP IN THE SPAM FOLDER. What if I hadn't checked 😭

[hallow isle]

"just a split second of madness"

Hi Guy

How's your tongue

[zenith pebble]

Hey Code, very sweet of you to ask, i haven't really eaten anything since Monday lol

[ocean pebble]

Morning folks

[ocean pebble]

Consider eating

[zenith pebble]

its not great. im trying not to disturb it and i also got some sort of mouthwash that is supposed to help

[elder shale]

Try liquids at least

pls

[ocean pebble]

Oh wait

What’s wrong?

[elder shale]

Go to the doctor if it hasn't gotten better

[zenith pebble]

i woke up a two nights ago with like, idk canker sores on my tongue or something

its quite miserable

[ocean pebble]

Oh

That sucks

Hope they heal quick

[pure sinew]

liquids, colder fluids, etc

[zenith pebble]

i will for sure, i read up on it online and it said they usually go away on their own after a couple days. if i dont see improvement by tomorrow ill probably go

so not hot coffee?

[elder shale]

🫂

Iced coffee

[zenith pebble]

i had a root beer float for dinner last night

[ocean pebble]

Yeah probably not the best idea

[pure sinew]

well colder probably means less aggravation

[zenith pebble]

yeah cold is def the better of the consumable temps ive found

[elder shale]

Stick an ice cube in your mouth

https://tenor.com/view/bfdi-icecube-bfdi-icecube-ugly-face-ugly-face-gif-26467007

[zenith pebble]

in addition to the mouthwash i also got this gel brush thing that dispenses anesthetic.. but it has a warning on the back for something called Methemoglobinemia

which is apparently a serious condition that reduces the amount of oxygen carried in blood so

[elder shale]

A warning for meth

[zenith pebble]

my college nickname

[elder shale]

Lmao

[zenith pebble]

im... not kidding lmao

[ocean pebble]

Your college nickname was “A warning for meth?”

[zenith pebble]

but it did not originate from the drug, or my usage of said drug

[zenith pebble]

just "meth"

[ocean pebble]

Oh

How did you get that nickname exactly?

[zenith pebble]

i went to a college in North Carolina for a single semester before retreating back North

it was called "Methodist College"

so when i transferred to the college i ended up staying at, the first party i went to people forgot my name but remembered me telling them that I transferred from Methodist College

[ocean pebble]

So you became Meth

[zenith pebble]

so they started calling me "Methodist" which was shortened to a single syllable within 24 hours

[teal raptor]

🙂

[zenith pebble]

not the worst nickname at the school though, one of my friends was called aids

[elder shale]

Methuselah the Fox

[ocean pebble]

Very unfortunate

[zenith pebble]

yes and no

[ocean pebble]

How’d that one happen?

[zenith pebble]

we were both fairly well liked/popular. it was a small university, same 40 ppl at every party kind of spot

uhh, ive forgotten exactly why Jeremy earned himself that nickname, im pretty sure it had to do with something that happened during one of his Tennis matches

[ocean pebble]

Honestly

That just makes me have more questions

How did he get the nickname aids from tennis

[zenith pebble]

also, i was just told the story again 3 weeks ago at his wedding, should have remembered it

[ocean pebble]

Ah well

I tend to forget shit a lot

Yet I remember the most random bs

[zenith pebble]

i think he got a bad cut maybe? something to do with that? idk

anyway there u are, some more insight into my mundane life

[ocean pebble]

Like the Chinese emperor that survived an assassination attempt by running in circles around a pillar

But then I forget people’s names

[zenith pebble]

or like how Emperor Qin used to take mercury supplements

[ocean pebble]

Yep

He took them believing it would get him eternal life

When in reality it did the exact opposite

[zenith pebble]

in his defense, seeing Mercury at room temp would look like absolute magic

[ocean pebble]

Yeah

[zenith pebble]

liquid metal blob that moves as one

mercury is wild

there are a few wild metals like that i think

[frosty hawk]

Gets you thinking

[ocean pebble]

Wonder if it’s possible that it was an intentional assassination by the person who recommended it?

Because he knew he wouldn’t be able to make something to give eternal life

So he killed him

Idk i’m not a historian I don’t have enough knowledge on the matter to come to any conclusions

[elder shale]

I'm celebrating today's very important holiday by, ironically, playing Crusader Kings

[steady vale]

I accidentally had tacos on tacoday

It upset me

Boobies

[elder shale]

boobies

[zenith pebble]

Qin was also a tyrant

[elder shale]

What the fuck

[ocean pebble]

Try again without the embed

[zenith pebble]

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chinese_alchemical_elixir_poisoning

[elder shale]

No, I've posted that before

[ocean pebble]

I’ve never seen it and well boobs in general so

[zenith pebble]

what is today in history?

[steady vale]

Doggos stole the boobies 😔

[elder shale]

How about no

[zenith pebble]

just scramble the boobs

[steady vale]

Like eggs

[zenith pebble]

pixelize em with the big pixel blocks

[elder shale]

It's a fucking historical article with an art piece that happens to have some triangle boobies, I can't control it

[steady vale]

That just turns them into minecraft boobies

[zenith pebble]

oh then thats fine maybe idk, i was never a mod

[ocean pebble]

** https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/5_October_1910_revolution**

There

[elder shale]

Alright

whatever man

[ocean pebble]

No big show of boobies

[elder shale]

I've posted it before idc

[ocean pebble]

Just calm down man

It’s not a big deal

[zenith pebble]

boobs are cool, just dont be a boob

[steady vale]

I've used the word boobies too many times today

[zenith pebble]

@elder shale on the list of important days in Portuguese history where does this rank

[elder shale]

Pretty much up there

[elder shale]

I'm calm, I just expect some consistency

[steady vale]

I'm like that with my food

I hate inconsistent food

[elder shale]

I'd say after June 10th and the 25th of April it's pretty much up there

[ocean pebble]

I deleted it because I was unaware that it had been posted before

[elder shale]

The irony of lady Liberty not being able to flash her boobies >:(

xd

[ocean pebble]

Not on my watch lol

[elder shale]

Doggos, important question

Do you sit in the menu in Elden Ring and listen to the theme at least once before playing

[dry bison]

I miss tacos.

I have not had a taco in years

I'm not ashamed to say I would eat Taco bell.

[elder shale]

I can count with the fingers on one hand the number of times I've had tacos in my life

[dry bison]

So five times?

[elder shale]

Or less

[dry bison]

Do you count your thumb as a finger?

[elder shale]

Yes

[ocean pebble]

No

But I occasionally do it

When i’m done playing

Been a bit since I last played

Got burnt out

May boot it up again later

What do you think of the pvp in the game @elder shale?

[zenith pebble]

ill get a plate of nachos before i get tacos tbh

[elder shale]

I mean

I like it

Getting a bit tired of getting my face stuffed with blood builds tho

[ocean pebble]

I want to fight you

[elder shale]

But I have fun hunting recusants and protecting hosts

[ocean pebble]

I don’t have a blood build

I have a str build

[elder shale]

I have a strength/faith build

[zenith pebble]

le B O N K

[elder shale]

Am level 85 atm

[steady vale]

I have a noodle build

[night bobcat]

What!

[ocean pebble]

His name is “The Jar-O-War”

[elder shale]

I want to get the iron greatswords and the whetblade that lets me use fire affinity so I can wrap up my level 100 build

for level 150 IDK what I'll do yet

[zenith pebble]

is 150 the generally accepted PvP cap?

[elder shale]

Yes

[ocean pebble]

There is a character from a well known video game franchise under that helmet, known for his strength and anger. Can y’all guess who?

[zenith pebble]

interesting

[elder shale]

It's also where I consider the cap for the whole game barring NG+

[zenith pebble]

all the souls games were 120

not sure about BB

[ocean pebble]

Generally get to higher levels in ER

[elder shale]

Bigger gaem

so

[ocean pebble]

So

Code

[elder shale]

BB was 120 too i think

[ocean pebble]

Do you agree to fight me later?

[elder shale]

Sure but

[ocean pebble]

An honorable duel

[elder shale]

what level are you

[steady vale]

I'll fight you

[ocean pebble]

Around 150 but i’m pretty sure stats are adjusted

[steady vale]

Bring your best pool noodle

[elder shale]

They only adjust if I use a regular summons

I think with password they don't adjust

[ocean pebble]

Ah

[elder shale]

not sure tho

[ocean pebble]

No big deal

If you’re good

Oh also just so you know

I am absolutely NOT a glass cannon

I did not skip out on vigor at all

[elder shale]

Me neither

[maiden seal]

99 str :chad:

[elder shale]

IDK anyone that does a strength build without popping vigor, you facetank a lot

[primal kelp]

i feel like dying

[steady vale]

No one wants to pool noodle fight with me 😔

[elder shale]

the image in my head is not pleasant

[steady vale]

Stop it

[primal kelp]

ill pool noodle fight u

[elder shale]

I don't want to picture a pool full of noodle soup >:(

[ocean pebble]

I’ll massively oversized sword fight you later if you have Elden Ring on pc

Speaking of

[primal kelp]

first day of workout not suicidal

[ocean pebble]

What is your main weapon @elder shale?

[elder shale]

Knight Greatswords atm

[primal kelp]

im in my car and arms feel like noodles

[ocean pebble]

Banished Knight?

[steady vale]

:0 that sounds fun too. Battle in a pool full of edible noodles. We can eat while we brawl.

[elder shale]

No, just regular Knight

[ocean pebble]

Huh

Okay

[elder shale]

They're pretty much the same

[ocean pebble]

Can’t say I remember that one

[elder shale]

I want to get Iron Greatswords tho, but they're in Leyndell

[primal kelp]

https://tenor.com/view/noodle-fight-gif-24050163

[elder shale]

I'm gonna grab the fucking bell with smithing stones 3 because I'm tired of not having those >:(

[ocean pebble]

Hey Code what is your favorite song from the game?

[maiden seal]

i used the Greatsword most of the game

👌

[steady vale]

https://tenor.com/view/gravity-falls-dipper-pines-noodle-arm-jason-ritter-bone-less-gif-5379649

[ocean pebble]

The first build I ever did was a bleed build

However

I didn’t use Rivers of Blood

[ocean pebble]

@elder shale

[elder shale]

I dunno

Prolly the main theme

[maiden seal]

i was going for a guts build

[ocean pebble]

Have you heard them all?

[steady vale]

I enjoy that one with the sound that plays

[ocean pebble]

Yeah that’s a great one

@hallow ingot stop lurking and reacting and say something lol

[maiden seal]

ur name

is my dogs name

Bessie

[elder shale]

Prolly not

I like the regal ancestor spirit too

[steady vale]

Code just renamed your dog

[maiden seal]

thanks

[ocean pebble]

I would say my favorite but i’m not sure if it would be a spoiler for you

[steady vale]

Regal Ancestor Spirit is a good girl

[maiden seal]

truly

[ocean pebble]

How do you know it’s a girl?

[steady vale]

Bessie is a feminine name

[ocean pebble]

What?

[elder shale]

tpose to assert dominance

[maiden seal]

She is though

[elder shale]

say it

[ocean pebble]

Ok

[maiden seal]

do you even know whats being talked about?

[ocean pebble]

||Mogh, Lord of Blood||

[elder shale]

oh

yea nice

[ocean pebble]

Oh I see now I was confused

[elder shale]

who PUT A DAMN FALLINGSTAR BEAST NEXT TO THE CAPITAL

god

[ocean pebble]

Maybe it wasn’t put there and y’know… fell?

[zenith pebble]

first time up north?

[ocean pebble]

From the stars

[steady vale]

I fell before

[elder shale]

damn it radahn, try to do your job right

[steady vale]

A woman dropped me when I was a baby

[zenith pebble]

i couldnt get into the city because some enormous mounted knight

[ocean pebble]

Yeah i’m 99% sure that the reason Radahn fought the stars was because of the threat of the fallingstar beasts

[zenith pebble]

then i went to beat Radahn because apparently i should have already, but failed multiple times and havent played since

[ocean pebble]

Gotta love my boy Draconic Tree Sentinel

[zenith pebble]

its a dude on a horse... its a tree sentinel?

[elder shale]

Well, he was trying to protect Sellia from being bonked to death but I'm sure that's part of it too

[ocean pebble]

Yes, because it guards the tree.

[zenith pebble]

oh theres a tree?!

[ocean pebble]

It’s not a tree that is a sentinel it’s a sentinel of the tree

[elder shale]

There's multiple trees

[ocean pebble]

Bro

[elder shale]

Elden loves trees

[zenith pebble]

are they important?

[ocean pebble]

Literally look up anywhere in the Lands Between

[elder shale]

You're trolling right?

[zenith pebble]

yes

[steady vale]

I also fell in a hole once

[zenith pebble]

i have killed several tree sentinels with my trusty serpent bow

bow build ftw

[ocean pebble]

I tried a bow build

No thanks

[zenith pebble]

although i have two complaints, i have to kill way too many sheep for bones

[elder shale]

Does getting into the capital trigger anything

[ocean pebble]

I should probably continue on my rl1 run

[elder shale]

I don't wanna accidentally break quests just to get some items

[steady vale]

I haven't played Elden ring so I apologize that my contribution to the convo is lacking 😩

[primal kelp]

im a bow build but as a mage

[zenith pebble]

and theres no recipe for fletched rainbow stone arrows

[ocean pebble]

I think I got to Leyndell

[frosty hawk]

I got to dragon twister hell

[ocean pebble]

Ah

Yes

[frosty hawk]

Where I was humbled

[ocean pebble]

Accurate name

Let me guess

||Godskin Duo?||

[primal kelp]

help im in bed and can't raise my arms

[zenith pebble]

i was able to cheese one big mean dragon with poison arrows because it got trapped on terrain

[steady vale]

Just let em chill

[zenith pebble]

now i have red lightning spell

that isnt very good

[primal kelp]

but i want to get up

[night bobcat]

Untuck the sheets

[frosty hawk]

Yeah no it’s the quick af little half hound dudes that kept billing me if I got stuck at all because I’d try to run passed them

[zenith pebble]

whaht did u do to ur armz

[primal kelp]

workout

[ocean pebble]

I don’t think I have the mental fortitude to do a full rl1 run so do you people have any other suggestions for challenge runs?

[zenith pebble]

in caelid?

[steady vale]

Also if you're not used to working out, possibly prepare for really annoying growing pain like sensations

[frosty hawk]

Carry me in rainbow six that’s a challenge

[ocean pebble]

Think he means the beastmen

[primal kelp]

mage build incorporates range and melee

[frosty hawk]

Ye

[zenith pebble]

uhhh, fists only

[primal kelp]

im gonna be sore tomorrow

[zenith pebble]

only shields

[primal kelp]

naked run

[zenith pebble]

spear chucking

[ocean pebble]

Oh i’ll give you a fists only run

[zenith pebble]

ok cool cant wait

[steady vale]

I hope you weren't running around naked at the gym

[ocean pebble]

That isn’t too difficult

I meant like weapon restrictions ect

[primal kelp]

dont judge

[frosty hawk]

Just cheese it

[primal kelp]

:(

[frosty hawk]

[zenith pebble]

bows and finger seal

[primal kelp]

no gaming for a couple hours

[ocean pebble]

Maybe a bit broader

[elder shale]

oh nah

two sentinels

[zenith pebble]

wait lemme look at weapons

[elder shale]

freak

[ocean pebble]

Hmmm

I have an idea

[primal kelp]

magic build but u can only smack ppl with staff no sorceries

[elder shale]

https://tenor.com/view/chuckles-im-in-danger-ralph-wiggum-the-simpsons-gif-14149962

[ocean pebble]

Maybe a run where I only use the giant flicky finger

[primal kelp]

bulldozer only

[zenith pebble]

whips and torches only

indiana jones build

[primal kelp]

giant club + the charge skill

[ocean pebble]

Hoslow’s Petal Whip would be a good one for thsi

Bleed damage

[primal kelp]

giant hammer

[ocean pebble]

I would do an actual indiana jones build if there was an indiana jones style hat in the game

But whips only seems like a really interesting one

Thanks for the idea

[zenith pebble]

np

[ocean pebble]

I’ll give it a shot

[zenith pebble]

whips and torches

[elder shale]

oh

[maiden seal]

i was using dragon cult for a while when i got the game

[ocean pebble]

I may hold the torch but I probably won’t use it in combat

[zenith pebble]

i should start my Sokka build...

[maiden seal]

i tried lightning too

[elder shale]

thought you had to actually

defeat them

i just sneaked by lol

i'll deal with them later

[zenith pebble]

tree sentinels?

usually theyre just kinda near the trees right?

[maiden seal]

i think the double tree sents are at a gate

[primal kelp]

https://youtu.be/8JWTndKGhvQ

[maiden seal]

up some stairs

i believe

[primal kelp]

i think they patched this but it was fun

[zenith pebble]

my current build is heavy faith, but im probably gunna respec back to dex idk, maybe not. ive put a ton of my materials into the fingerseal and the winged scythe

[maiden seal]

str/faith rn

[zenith pebble]

ahhh at a gate up stairs i see. i would just end up spending 45 minutes slowly killing them with poison from afar

[maiden seal]

gonna redownload to see

might change some stuff

[primal kelp]

int just int only

99 int

[maiden seal]

lol

[zenith pebble]

https://eldenring.wiki.fextralife.com/Godskin+Peeler
i also found this weapon and really love the moveset though

[maiden seal]

i think i have 99 str because yes

[maiden seal]

a lot of ppl do

its not bad

[primal kelp]

cant believe they nerfed bloodhound steps

[zenith pebble]

the ash is cool

[maiden seal]

oh really?

how bad?

[primal kelp]

yeah bc it was broken in pvp

[maiden seal]

ye

[ocean pebble]

Hmm

[primal kelp]

they also nerfed the homing stars

[zenith pebble]

yall makin me want to change the disc loaded into my console when i get home

[primal kelp]

bc they used to be unavoidable unless u used bh step

[ocean pebble]

I really don’t feel like doing the whip build so I might do a dagger build instead

[maiden seal]

ik im literally downloading it back rn

[zenith pebble]

WOW

lame

[primal kelp]

stick build

[ocean pebble]

Closest thing to a stick is the club

[primal kelp]

use the starter club then

[elder shale]

ok cool don't have to worry about smithing stone 3 again

[zenith pebble]

i wish i played on PC and knew how to mod things so i could mod in the kirkhammer and simon's bowblade

[primal kelp]

i would load the game up but im currently incapacitated in bed

[maiden seal]

theres some cool ER mods

[zenith pebble]

there is a whirligig in ER right?

[maiden seal]

close?

[zenith pebble]

yeah

[maiden seal]

just doesnt seperate

yk

[zenith pebble]

the one invader in uhh, volcano manor has it

[maiden seal]

i think whirligig did that

cant remember, never played Bb

[primal kelp]

i just want the deathbed smalls

[elder shale]

you have something like the whirligig ye

[zenith pebble]

nah whirlygig alt fire/trick mode was just walk forward and spin

ohhh

no youre right the handle came out i think

[primal kelp]

undies cut from the game

[zenith pebble]

and u dual wield the parts i think

[maiden seal]

https://youtube.com/watch?v=DL9CSGK88zU&feature=share

[primal kelp]

i just run away from fights and use a magic bow

that shoots 5 giant arrows

or was it 3

[elder shale]

Whoever designed abductor virgins

[primal kelp]

theres one thats helpful

[elder shale]

I will make this thing in real life and kill you

[primal kelp]

ur supposed to go in one of them

not telling u which one tho

[ocean pebble]

It has to kill you though

[primal kelp]

and i have to kill u, ur point?

[ocean pebble]

[primal kelp]

2025 call of duty is rumored to be aw2 which will return jetpacks

[ocean pebble]

Oooh nice

[primal kelp]

[ocean pebble]

I loved Advanced Warfare

[primal kelp]

i didnt really like it

i just liked jetpacks

[ocean pebble]

I don’t really like you

[primal kelp]

bo3 is my fav

[ocean pebble]

Lol jk

[primal kelp]

the movement wasnt great

bo3 did jetpacks better

and iw did it good too

[ocean pebble]

To bad that i’ve heard iw sucked in every other aspect

[eternal thorn]

Infinity War wasn't all that bad tho. Decent avengers film

[ocean pebble]

Lol

[primal kelp]

what sucked about iw

i liked it

[ocean pebble]

I dunno

[primal kelp]

wasnt as good as bo3 tho

[ocean pebble]

I didn’t play it

Just repeating what i’ve heard

[primal kelp]

only complaint ppl had were the gun variants

which was p2w

[ocean pebble]

Any p2w aspect instantly makes it a bad game

[primal kelp]

but me as a broke person got all the good variants without spending a dime

so

[ocean pebble]

No redeeming factor exists

[primal kelp]

idk what everyone was on about

i never spent money in bo3 or iw and got the good guns

[ocean pebble]

How much did you have to play to get them

[primal kelp]

idk i was still in hs and my game time was limited

[elder shale]

Infinite Warfare had an unironically gem of a campaign

[primal kelp]

maybe 15 hours a week?

[ocean pebble]

And it was only zombies mode at my friend’s place

[ocean pebble]

The last cod game that I played the campaign in is probably Advanced Warfare

I’m not big on fps games

[elder shale]

I play Siege and Squad nowdays

nowadays

[primal kelp]

ive played bo1 bo2 bo3 bo4 mw2 mw3 cod 3 aw iw vanguard mw2019 mw2 2022

[ocean pebble]

Last time I played an fps was probably back when Halo Infinite released

[primal kelp]

ive played a lot of cod

[ocean pebble]

I’m not a fan of fps games but Halo will always have a place in my heart

[primal kelp]

im a fan of fps games

it also an outlet for venting

speaking of cod once i get feeling back in my arms gonna visit a seafood place

[ocean pebble]

Wdym get feeling back in your arms

[primal kelp]

holy 4090

[hallow isle]

You didn't buy one?

[dry bison]

That is insane

Isn't that a $1000+ GPU?

[primal kelp]

4090 on bottom 3090 on top

its $1600 gpu

[dry bison]

At least you didn't get the 4070 pretending to be a 4080 and get ripped off

[primal kelp]

thats the minimum price bc this is direct from nvidia

3rd party cards will be around $1700

[dry bison]

I honestly don't know a single game that will benefit from a 4090

[primal kelp]

its not for gaming

[dry bison]

Crypto mining?

[somber falcon]

Damn. My own pc didn't even cost that much.

[primal kelp]

the normal consumer max need is a 4080

no video editors

rendering etc

[dry bison]

What software you using for rendering?

I have very little experience video editing

Only software I'm even remotely familiar with using is Hitfilm

It was fantastic though

FXHome

[primal kelp]

3d softwares, like blender unreal engine etc

people that make animation or render videos

this is more for commercial use

[dry bison]

You'll def benefit from a 4090 rendering in blender. I suspect you'll double your rendering speed.

[primal kelp]

any gamer with a 4090 is an idiot

[dry bison]

If not even faster

[primal kelp]

or just rich

most u need is a 4080

[somber falcon]

I just got a 3070. I'll also do rendering stuff.

[dry bison]

According to Techspot the 4090 is nearly 80% faster than a 3090 TI for benchmarking

[ivory thorn]

Would there be any benefit to a 4090 for 3D game development

[primal kelp]

def

ur going to have super fast rendering

this is a commercial card

overkill for gaming

[dry bison]

and by overkill, overpriced

Nothing in the gaming industry requires that much power

At least for playing

Like driving a tank against bumper cars

[primal kelp]

its not overpriced for professionals

[dry bison]

Could even get away with avoiding it for commercial production unless you're doing it often

[primal kelp]

but it is for gaming

but again the -90 cards arent for gaming

[ocean pebble]

But what if I want to play tetris at 2 million fps

[dry bison]

Tetris in 4D at 2million fps

[primal kelp]

u would need to overclock ur cpu and have a liquid nitrogen cooling system

[dry bison]

In this game of tetris time moves with gravitational force

Larger masses change time and can make it even go backwards

Oh I'm imagining a whole new tetris

I better stop

[ocean pebble]

What about 5d chess with multiverse time travel

Which is an actual thing

[dry bison]

In this tetris you are randomly a cup of tea

[ocean pebble]

Or a sperm whale

[dry bison]

its basically 2 3090ti in sli

[ocean pebble]

Yay you got the reference

[dry bison]

One book I've never read but have been meaning to, I know I'd end up obsessing over for years

[primal kelp]

anyone want a kidney

[ocean pebble]

Is it ethically sourced?

[primal kelp]

its from me

[ocean pebble]

I’ll take that as a yes

[dry bison]

I hear that they're selling kidneys for like $2k in Afghanistan because their currency is dogshit now

[ocean pebble]

You should read it, it’s great

[ivory thorn]

game development requires more horsepower than playing games in some areas. A gamer won't really need a CPU with more than 16 threads, but for a game developer it can help compile code faster to go with 24-32 threads, code compilation can even sometimes benefit from threadripper levels of multithreading. Even a 4K gamer should be fine with nothing more than the latest x080 card, but a developer in some cases could benefit from a little more horsepower

[dry bison]
