machine learning just makes automation more efficient it has no intelligence

[opaque tartan]

So it comes down to people lying and being shit then

[primal kelp]

the corpos trying to replace people with them are just pigs

[opaque tartan]

Because humans are dishonest and love stealing credit

[wise stream]

But AI songs with singing droids is funny

[wanton lichen]

welcome to people

[west thunder]

👀

[safe torrent]

I suspect the biggest danger with AI would be managerial types either buying into the hype and overpromising around AI, or just cynically pretending to do so in orderto justify cutting humans from the payroll.

[sleek coral]

That's... human nature.

[still tartan]

I mostly see using AI “art” as like google images. You can use em for artistic inspiration all you want but claiming any of it is yours because you typed in a prompt is dishonest

[still tartan]

That’s an excuse. I would like to hold people to higher standards

[sleek coral]

Correct

[still tartan]

Human nature because mfs need consequences

[primal kelp]

ai art just falls into that uncanny valley unless you go in and edit it yourself

[opaque tartan]

Isn't it funny that most of my artist friends in the industry haven't really complained about AI generated art

There have been quite a few

[safe torrent]

I have to figure out whether and how to address the use of AI with my students, next week.

[opaque tartan]

But quite a lot of renowned artists have said nothing

I wonder why

[still tartan]

I complain as a hobby artist, because these are people who refuse to learn a skill to benefit themselves and instead use the work and hundreds of hours from other people

[sleek coral]

Can't deny human nature though, biologically humans are territorial, intelligent, aggressive, complex animals. There's no shame in accepting the fact. Although I don't deny the positive aspects of human society either. As I said, everything has a bad and a good face imo.

[mint spear]

Help

[still tartan]

Agree to disagree then I think globally we could be doing significantly better for ourselves and our surroundings. But that’s too big an issue for a hungry insomniac worm

[safe torrent]

I've been reading and thinking about this a lot recently - part of the work I do IRL - and these two statements are entirely compatible, I think.

This is why I hate AI

[safe torrent]

(My screen name comes from Kant's acknowledgment of human nature - the "crooked timber" from which we are formed - but he was also really rigorous about obligation, holding ourselves to very high standards.)

[still tartan]

why does this exist

[wanton lichen]

aw cute cow kitty

[primal kelp]

he eatin the paghetti

[safe torrent]

It's horrifying.

[still tartan]

Goes to show ya. Kant had some ideas I very much disagree with but there’s always something to learn from someone

It’s a nice screen name

[mint spear]

My cat hits me ☹️

[still tartan]

[primal kelp]

hit it back

[still tartan]

no

[primal kelp]

if your cat bites you bite it back

[wanton lichen]

nooooooooo

[still tartan]

That’ll just piss it off lol

[safe torrent]

Seriously. Talk about consequences!

[primal kelp]

tpose menacingly

[wanton lichen]

advice I've read is that if you cat punches, scratches, bites you then yelp loudly and walk away
this is what kittens do when they are learning bite inhibition and a loud yelp is the signal they understand that means 'stop'

[sleek coral]

I wanted to send a reply

😦

[still tartan]

Yeah, I was told cats won’t make the connection between what they did and punishment, so they just think you’re being mean

[primal kelp]

why does the stuff i like have to be expensive

[still tartan]

:((

My dog keeps whacking me with his cone trying to snuggle 😭

[primal kelp]

why you put a cone of shame on him

[wise stream]

Hit him back with your cone then

[opaque tartan]

I'll PM about this if that's ok, I don't want to bring the subject back up or offend people (because some of these miscreants are alright)

[still tartan]

He’s got a wound

[opaque tartan]

Misty had a cone after a fight

Broke my heart

She couldn't nibble my ear

[still tartan]

Go ahead :). I may not reply right away but I’ll read

[wanton lichen]

Wormy have you seen all those cute soft cones you can get for cats and dogs now? stuff like flowers and bread lol

[still tartan]

Awww

That’d be so much better. This is one of those heavier adjustable ones :(. Can’t be comfortable for him

[sleek coral]

My dog decided to sleep with me tonight. It's morning now, he's awake but he doesn't wanna get out. 😅

[opaque tartan]

Poor ol' girl had a drain in for a while

But nothing stops her

[opaque tartan]

Ayyayyoooo this is berry cute dog

[sleek coral]

I remember seeing this earlier, still breaks my heart to see her like this. Even through the pic her eyes show the pain she's in. 😦

[opaque tartan]

Yeah she would cry every now and again when I had to leave her alone, which she usually never does

Then I cried

[sleek coral]

You are a good friend to her Nate.

[opaque tartan]

But she would always greet me the same way

And try to nibble my ears

[sleek coral]

Ha!

[still tartan]

I definitely cried today Hula hid it so freakin well and he’s still just cuddly and you wouldn’t know anything’s wrong if you hadn’t seen it

[opaque tartan]

Eeeeyyy, keep it a secret, I'm a bit of an arsehole but I try to be good to people

[sleek coral]

Lol!

[opaque tartan]

Lucky he has you around mate

[still tartan]

[opaque tartan]

When I wasn't well the dogs kept watch over me

And they knew to be gentle

I can only repay the kindness

[restive haven]

Random photo from the computer room here that turned out nice.

Anyone identify the computer?

that would be nice for trad-roguelikes actually

cheapeast top left was $350 -- and I wanted it! But my wife would not let me....

She already lets you have your own room

[primal kelp]

[restive haven]

Ya...

We bought the daughter $200 worth of dresses there tho...

[tardy juniper]

i need a new keyboard

[restive haven]

[opaque tartan]

I hope one day someone lets me have a room

[tardy juniper]

I'm still using my mac keyboard from like 10 years ago

[opaque tartan]

I hope you explained that keyboards last longer than dresses

[restive haven]

yes

[opaque tartan]

I can imagine there would be eye rolling

[restive haven]

Well, there are things I might like more than a room. But, #25yearsmarried

[primal kelp]

honestly the trend now for kbs is to mimic old kbs

[opaque tartan]

Pulls out old AST with DIN connector

[opaque tartan]

Dude people can't stand me that long

3 years max

This was the last keyboard I bought

[primal kelp]

no idea what im going to do with my current kb

[tardy juniper]

uh, no

[primal kelp]

might get a stand for it

i dont have the kb i last bought

[opaque tartan]

People started getting into mechanical ones and I made the point of using some basic Dell one to beat people

[primal kelp]

perks of group buys

[still tartan]

porque no los dos

[primal kelp]

you wait ages

[opaque tartan]

Yeah the keyboards totally work on DOS too, see better value

[tardy juniper]

keyboards should be able to run DOS by now

[primal kelp]

i used an optical kb before this one

wait not optical

some magnetic one

[tardy juniper]

I'm definitely considreing steelseries, they make some nice headphones

[primal kelp]

adjustable actuation

had a coolermaster before that

now im onto custom

[opaque tartan]

I used to buy CM stuff

[primal kelp]

waiting for my endgame kb to ship and then wait 3 more months for the numpad to come

i want an ergo kb but they are super expensive

[humble marsh]

shira is a marvel fan 😔

[primal kelp]

at least custom ones

would be $300

and then get cnc aluminum keycaps on it

[primal kelp]

im quite tired of marvel tbh

the mcu thingy is oversaturated

I have enough to look forward to in terms of entertainment that not much of Marvel interests me atm

it's fun to watch with family but that's about it

[opaque tartan]

Need more villains

[still tartan]

About sums it up. Same with new Star Wars shows for me

[opaque tartan]

More bad endings where bad guys win

[still tartan]

I like good endings when they’re earned

[opaque tartan]

Like Lord of the Rings

[still tartan]

But I have a couple shows I need to watch, want to see The Dark Crystal, and lots of games to put thousands of hours into

[still tartan]

LOTR remains one of my biggest inspirations

[opaque tartan]

Still not seen the new Dark Crystal

[still tartan]

Haven’t seen any!

Been getting videos recommended to me on YouTube and looks like something I would enjoy

[opaque tartan]

Reminds me I need to get the film server moving again

[tardy juniper]

I remember when the original dark crystal came out

[still tartan]

When was that? Seems aesthetically similar to the Last Fairytale(?) but haven’t seen that either

[opaque tartan]

1982

[still tartan]

Not last fairytale… something Last something

[opaque tartan]

Last Starfighter?

[tardy juniper]

Yep, the death blossom

[still tartan]

It’s one of those whimsical fantasy films

[opaque tartan]

Neverending Story?

[tardy juniper]

Last Unicorn?

Nah but it means you'll have less nerd friends and get invited to stuff less

[still tartan]

Writing this down because my brain was mixing together like three things lol

[humble marsh]

I'm a warhammer fan it cancels it out

[wise stream]

Compliance!

[opaque tartan]

I'm gonna message Red and see if she wants to watch it too. Might get some 80s films on the go

[opaque tartan]

That shit was terrifying

Reminded me of the things from the War of the Worlds movie

The old one

[still tartan]

A watch party? Could be fun 👀

[humble marsh]

Neverending story is the one with the rock and the um... woman?

[opaque tartan]

One with Falco

[tardy juniper]

Spies Like Us will forever hold a place in my movie brain

[humble marsh]

I recently rewatched shaolin soccer, very funny movie

[still tartan]

I missed out on the 80’s era of fantasy and horror/thriller type movies

[opaque tartan]

Love that film

[still tartan]

because i wasnt born yet lol

[opaque tartan]

The song he sings to the bun girl

CODPIECE

[zinc oyster]

Hi 👋

[tardy juniper]

effing MCU

Falcon is supposed to be a supersoldier

[slender quartz]

Just getting to that point, eh? Yeah, they dropped the ball on that.

[tardy juniper]

I just got to the point where he said he wouldn't take it

and Captain America went Homelander

[slender quartz]

The guy playing the new Captain is a great actor, though. I mean, you really want to punch him repeatedly as a character.

[tardy juniper]

he plays the role of White Male Privilege pretty good too

[slender quartz]

Nevermind. Server rules and such.

@slender quartz You mean a ruler to measure stuff?

Astronomy Pic of the Day: Arp 93: A Cosmic Embrace

Explanation: Locked in a cosmic embrace, two large galaxies are merging at the center of this sharp telescopic field of view. The interacting system cataloged as Arp 93 is some 200 million light-years distant toward the constellation Aquarius in planet Earth's sky. Individually the galaxies are identified as NGC 7285 (right) and NGC 7284. Their bright cores are still separated by about 20,000 light-years or so, but a massive tidal stream, a result of their ongoing gravitational interaction, extends over 200,000 light-years toward the bottom of the frame. Interacting galaxies do look peculiar, but are now understood to be common in the Universe. In fact, closer to home, the large spiral Andromeda Galaxy is known to be approaching the Milky Way. Arp 93 may well present an analog of their distant future cosmic embrace.

hi

[night blade]

i might need to ask someone to proofread a job application where they ask for a good level in English

[opaque tartan]

Can shoot it my way of you want

[night blade]

Alright !

[elder shale]

Can help too if you want

[night blade]

The company is French, should I go the English path to show or in French to be sure I am not misunderstood?

[sleek coral]

Fringlish.

Hmm!

Frenglish

You can choose Englench too

[sleek coral]

Question is, are they gonna code?

I mean, are they gonna give you codes to write?

[night blade]

There is a technical test yes

it's for a UI Developer application

[sleek coral]

Hmm!

Code can't be French ||(he's Portuguese)||, so maybe choosing English could help.

[night blade]

yes

So I show I can talk English while the company is french ?

[elder shale]

There's some programming languages written with specific languages, it's wild

[sleek coral]

Yup

[sleek coral]

I know, but how are you gonna code in French? What will be the function names? "le_function"?

[bold island]

leFunction()

[sleek coral]

It would've been different if it was a company using a non-English alphabet following language.

[near jacinth]

Hi everyone

@night blade I might also be able to help with potential work

i mix up words

[slender quartz]

[opaque tartan]

No worries

I'm not doing that for a while either

[sleek coral]

Hmm! Write your resume in English, share with us to proofread. Face the interview in English and when you feel a little comfortable switch to speaking French.

My tactic for cracking interviews.

[opaque tartan]

I have no tactic

[sleek coral]

Helps a lot to show a strong candidature and personality.

[opaque tartan]

I've winged every single interview

[sleek coral]

You're stinky, they hire you under pressure. :3

Kthnxbye

[opaque tartan]

also twitter is soon to redirect to x.com if not already

xcom

[hallow isle]

someone moving a mattress by literally throwing it down the fucking stairs

[hard vine]

im gonna have a fucking stroke with the amount of brother fights i have cuz HE NEVER FUCKING LISTENS

[hallow isle]

I mean it's efficient but jesus fuck have some consideration

[tardy juniper]

why, is it late at night?

[primal kelp]

i would do that

[hallow isle]

I wasn't aware that being an asshole is permitted during daylight hours

Someone should have told me

[primal kelp]

but not like throw it

slide it down

[tardy juniper]

so they damaged something?

[hard vine]

i tell him when he get home ive emptied washer ask him to put in his which have layed on the washing thing for 3 days. he decides to just wash it off and not put it in for 2min and just decide to fucking sleep all day when i asked him to do it making me having to do it

[primal kelp]

at least it wasnt in the middle of the night

prob just really loud

[hard vine]

"you have no reason to be angry" FUCKER I TOLD U 6 HOURS AGO AND ITS STINKING

[hallow isle]

they threw it, weird noise was the sound of it bouncing off the cupboards at the bottom of every flight

and just in case that's not enough reason to hate him, he had a man bun

[primal kelp]

what's wrong with man buns

[tardy juniper]

I've not met a decent person with a manbun

[hallow isle]

The people wearing them 9/10

[still tartan]

I get mattresses are a pain to move anywhere but

[hallow isle]

on the bright side they're either moving out or robbing one of the flats upstairs

so i'll never have to see them again after today

[hard vine]

the longer i live with him the more i wanna punch my head in a wall

i am telling the reason im angry is cuz he didnt put it in and he constantly argues with me getting me more agitated

saying i have no reason to

[tardy juniper]

we had a housemate like that, we moved and didn't invite the troll

[still tartan]

Sharing a space with others who are not diligent about their messes can be really draining

[slender quartz]

And my feelings are still hurt. LOL

[tardy juniper]

You do not want to take credit for that waste of skin

[slender quartz]

I am drinking Koolaid for the first time in over a year.

[tardy juniper]

They were a victim-blaming transgender addict with hypochondria, and showing effects of Bromine poisoning from all the DXM they took

yet they still acted entitled as if they earned any money whatsoever while living with us

No rent, no chores, nothing of value from this person, and no efforts to become better

[hallow isle]

this is why i live alone

[tardy juniper]

anyway, they are gone, and our QoL improved drasticly

I keep considering getting a new PC for gaming

[slender quartz]

Koolaid's not the same with this sweetener. Not bad, just not as good.

[tardy juniper]

but I don't want to assemble it myself, so I would have to find a PC broker

[hard vine]

its not even a case of me not wanting to do it i request a lot to fam if i can help them they say no

[tardy juniper]

This place called Build Redux, has a table of 15 games, and asks you to select 3 of them... or you can't continue with building a PC.

[hallow isle]

fortnite roblox minecraft

[tardy juniper]

but I don't play any of these games, so the FPS means nothing to me

[pale meadow]

When building a computer myself I don't target a certain game. I target a screen resolution

[tardy juniper]

exactly why this vendor is dumb

I literally cannot continue to build a PC unless I pick 3 games

I guess I could use Newegg

[pale meadow]

PC part picker?

[tardy juniper]

Not on that website

[pale meadow]

It's what I used lol

[tardy juniper]

[pale meadow]

At first, then I built up my knowledge and now don't use it lol

[primal kelp]

you dont have to pick 3 games

its just an easier way to find your reccomended specs

theres literally a sidebar with different tiers of config

[tardy juniper]

The continue button was disabled because I didn't choose games

[pale meadow]

What game do you want to play?

[tardy juniper]

unless you're trying to tell me ||https://buildredux.com/pages/build-your-pc|| lets you press Next without choosing anything

[primal kelp]

sounds more like a you issue bc i just got to checkout without hitting a signel game

just tap one of these

the 3 games is to decide this side

[tardy juniper]

I shouldn't have to pick one, one is already selected

I would have to select a different budget, then the selected budget to get anywhere there too

[pale meadow]

You can always get good and upgrade later fyi

[primal kelp]

just pick 3 random games

[tardy juniper]

The site is a UX nightmare

[agile bramble]

There's apparently a website that asks monitor size and resolution, and it tells you how far you should sit from it to not be able to tell individual pixels... forgot what the effect was called

[pale meadow]

It's better then most sadly

[agile bramble]

Sounds silly, but apparently it's important for some people

[tardy juniper]

I'm 47, I've seen the rise of computers, and still wonder why after 25+ years, we still have shitty UXes

[agile bramble]

PPS or, pixels-per-square-inch is apparently the biggest factor when choosing monitors

[pale meadow]

Laziness lol

[tardy juniper]

say what you will about Apple, their UX is quite good

[agile bramble]

I never thought I'd run into someone a whole decade older than me 😄

i have my android phone running ios ui for this reason

[bold island]

pets have stockholme syndrome lol

[pale meadow]

Who hurt you for you to do that?

[sleek coral]

Just select three games, then deselect them. It will allow you to move forward.

[tardy juniper]

I'm just going to use a different broker

[hallow isle]

press up up down down left right left right b a start and you can choose 6 games

[pale meadow]

Puget system is a good one

[primal kelp]

the ios ui is much more simple lol

i dont like the android icons layout

and widgets

[pale meadow]

Aren't they become more android like🤔

[primal kelp]

idk i only use it for the square icons

[pale meadow]

Um, you can do that in android

[agile bramble]

Makes me glad I have friends on discord who actually know about all this PC component stuff

[pale meadow]

Like me😁

[agile bramble]

Do people still use DDR4 or has everyone moved to 5?

[pale meadow]

Yep

[agile bramble]

Wait... which was the newest RAM type?

[pale meadow]

DDR 5

[hallow isle]

most people will still be using DDR4

[agile bramble]

Cheers

[primal kelp]

new gen doesnt catch up with the rest of the pc ppl until like 10 years

[hallow isle]

DDR5 needs a new mainboard/CPU

[primal kelp]

ppl still use gtx cards

[hallow isle]

plus on lower end systems, DDR4 will perform fine

There are probably systems still being manufacturered that use DDR3

[sleek coral]

No, no, really see. I didn't even select 3 games. Selected 1 and unselected it.

[primal kelp]

[hallow isle]

most popular CPU intel make is still celeron/atom after all

[tardy juniper]

Why would I use a PC builder with a bad UX?

[primal kelp]

gtx 1650 is still the most popular

[pale meadow]

[agile bramble]

Well my CPU socket is obsolete now, so I'd need to replace that regardless when I upgrade 😄

Still wondering if I should choose team blue or red next

[pale meadow]

So is mine, come to the red side we have cookies lol

[primal kelp]

i went full red this upgrade

[pale meadow]

I am red and green 😁

[primal kelp]

i now have a really decent am4 rtx 3070 spare pc now tho

[hallow isle]

ebay

[sleek coral]

Fair

[primal kelp]

selling is too much of a hassle

[pale meadow]

It's where I got my motherboard

[primal kelp]

i have to do the shipping work

[tardy juniper]

I currently have: Intel Core i7-7800X @ 3.5GHz, 32GB RAM, NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2080 with 8GB GRAM

[primal kelp]

might give it to a friend

[hallow isle]

you got one?

[primal kelp]

why do you need an upgrade again?

[primal kelp]

yes

they are in my head

they talk to me

[tardy juniper]

I don't need an upgrade, I'm more wanting to price things out given current markets

[hallow isle]

https://tenor.com/view/kurt-cobain-nirvana-gif-5173806

[tardy juniper]

also, I don't think the 2080 can handle 4monitors

[primal kelp]

have you tried

[tardy juniper]

it doesn't even have 4 ports iirc

[primal kelp]

cus i think i did that with a 2060s

[agile bramble]

Is that CPU older than mine? I have i7-8700k

[hallow isle]

Tried to get this entered into a music round for a quiz at a Church once, someone spotted my evil plan though

[agile bramble]

Whoops, didn't mean to full ping with that 😅

[tardy juniper]

8G is ~8.3M, 4*1080p = 8.4M, so no, the 2080 I have cannot drive 4 monitors

[hallow isle]

I think it was also me submitting REM - Losing my religion and the devil went down to georgia that tipped them off that I was up to no good

[primal kelp]

my 3070 had 8gb and did 4, im running an ultrawide too

dont think the vram is a focal issue

diablo was struggling with 8gb of vram tho

[agile bramble]

"It's not the amount of VRAM, but the speed that matters"

Or that's what all my friends told me

[hallow isle]

Mostly true, once you have enough VRAM having more doesn't make anything better

But you need enough VRAM

[primal kelp]

diablo 4 was just super poorly optimized for pc

so instead i got 24gb of vram

[hallow isle]

diablo 4 was just super poorly optimized for pc

[agile bramble]

Acti-blizz just can't stop their shit streak, can they... 🙄

Probably the reason game devs are so pissed at BG3, because it's going to raise player standards again on what is a good game release

[primal kelp]

they shouldnt have been lowered lol

[humble marsh]

that would be nice but it most likely won't

[hallow isle]

I mean literally all larian did was go "what if we made a game that wasn't shit?"

[agile bramble]

Right??

[primal kelp]

the game isnt flawless tho, theres a lot of bugs

[tardy juniper]

I love how BG3 is a good game release, while simultaneously delaying support on an entire console family

[hallow isle]

oh absolutely but it's fun

[primal kelp]

yeah

[hallow isle]

games should be fun

[humble marsh]

yeah

[primal kelp]

im still in act 1

[tardy juniper]

BG3 is not fun on Xbox

[primal kelp]

and there keeps being more stuff in the act

[hallow isle]

A lot really do feel like jobs

[primal kelp]

and making it longer

[humble marsh]

the writing is a little dissapointing at times though

[primal kelp]

i mean you cant always have great lines

[agile bramble]

PS5 version is coming later, Xbox is not so straightforward according to their official statement...
See, the thing is that they're basically forced to make it compatible to both Series S and X and because the latter is last gen, it's a nightmare for them to work with

[hallow isle]

AC is a good example, I didn't mind the endless chests up to unity/syndicate, but the origin trilogy the maps are so big 100%'ing them just feels like an absolute chore

[primal kelp]

did you want this to be disco elysium or something

[humble marsh]

Wrong, disco elysium

all they needed was corporate influence and a shitty boss

[primal kelp]

lmao

see

[humble marsh]

yeah ofc

[tardy juniper]

It's only Couch Co-op though

however my point stands, You can't announce something for multiple platforms now, then only release them one at a time

it's rude and sets bad expectations, giving you bad marketing

[hallow isle]

https://tenor.com/view/mind-blown-explosion-happy-smile-laugh-gif-4557567

[tardy juniper]

If it's not gonna work on a console, don't announce the console

[humble marsh]

look I'm not that predictable okay

[agile bramble]

Fair enough

[primal kelp]

own the other consoles ez

[primal kelp]

you are i just predicted you

[tardy juniper]

Doesn't help with BG3, they slacked off and just did the easy release on PC

[humble marsh]

Saying they slacked off is such a massive insult

[hallow isle]

Makes GOTY

Slacked off

[primal kelp]

hey hey

goty hasnt been decided yet

[hallow isle]

I decided it

[tardy juniper]

Announcing Xbox support then saying, OOOPS NOPE is an insult to consoles

[still tartan]

Yeah could be Redfall or whatever the hell

[primal kelp]

gollum is goty

[humble marsh]

TGA is shit so

[still tartan]

[primal kelp]

how can you mess up a lotr game

[tardy juniper]

So no, I won't say it's a good release

[humble marsh]

What??? You love lotr!

[agile bramble]

I'm like 90% that's Microsoft's fault.
They allegedly told Larian "If you can't make it work on our current and last gen consoles, then don't bother at all"

[primal kelp]

if the tes oblivion remake is real i might actually play an older tes game

[humble marsh]

morrowind is better

[tardy juniper]

Series S is a current gen console

[primal kelp]

it really isnt

[hallow isle]

Not just larian, it's standing policy - games must work 100% on both X and S

[tardy juniper]

Is there a die-hard requirement for couch co-op?

[primal kelp]

you can say that but there are devs that skip over xbox bc of having to support the s

[tardy juniper]

I think not, since I have many games that don't have it

[humble marsh]

ok n'wah

[primal kelp]

larian wants feature parity with all platforms

[tardy juniper]

So release the game, then delay the couch co-op, don't delay the entire game losing the hype window

[primal kelp]

do it right or dont do it at all

yes ship an unfinished game

[still tartan]

Sure as hell not that gollum game, from the 30 something seconds of gameplay I saw 😂

[humble marsh]

Shadow Of War is good

that's it tho

[primal kelp]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E21qSEyRa88

[tardy juniper]

Why didn't they test on Series S and find out the problem sooner? Why did it have to delay a release?

[hallow isle]

Because game dev isn't free

[primal kelp]

series s shouldve just been a discless series x but its not and has lower specs

[humble marsh]

so you're saying it would be better to delay it on all platforms instead on just consoles??

[hallow isle]

At the end of the day Larian are a business, and releasing on PC first was a business decision

[agile bramble]

I've watched one of the youtubers I follow let's play it to the end... and it's so broken it's funny at first, then goes a full circle and not funny again 😄

[hallow isle]

XBox users feeling good about their sub-par console doesn't pay the bills

[primal kelp]

and skyrim better

[agile bramble]

Morrowind was the first TES game I ever played....

Goddamn you people for tempting me to start modding again... 😖

[humble marsh]

It really sucks about Daedalic too, they made great point and clicks

Night of the Rabbit was my fave

[primal kelp]

morrowind would be way too much work to remake

oblivion is rumoured to be in ue5

[agile bramble]

OpenMW exists?
Was that the name...?

No wait, that's a fan project, sorry

[humble marsh]

OpenMW is a new engine, far from a remake

morrowind shouldn't be remade because they'll make the combat worse

[hallow isle]

as much as I love morrowind, it hasn't aged well gameplay wise

[agile bramble]

As if %-based combat wasn't bad enough 😄

[humble marsh]

I like it

it's not good, but I like it

[primal kelp]

forza motorsport wont have a few key features including splitscreen and im inclined to think it might be bc of the series s

and thats a first party title thats coming this year

[primal kelp]

you also like disco elysium so

[pale meadow]

Oof

[hallow isle]

genuinely, idk what MS are gonna do next year or two. Sony are gonna come out with the PS5 pro, are gonna release an Xbox Pro X/S?

make their devs support 4 consoles?

[primal kelp]

yeah would be a nightmare

only thing i could see is a series x slim

i think thats rumoured already

a discless series x

[hallow isle]

their only option is to ditch the S

but they won't do that

[agile bramble]

Too early for that

[primal kelp]

make some of the series s games run off cloud

[hallow isle]

for the 5% of their userbase with good enough internet

[humble marsh]

the real reason they're not releasing games on xbox is because it has a dumb name

[hallow isle]

I heard Elon has one

[humble marsh]

He has a dumb name?

[primal kelp]

oh wait titan quest 2 is coming

[hallow isle]

steam popped up a notification just as i closed it

I guess i'll never know

[primal kelp]

guess ill retract my starfield gift

[humble marsh]

that is so sad

[hallow isle]

already own it

august 30th preload is some bullshit though

[primal kelp]

why

[hallow isle]

steam servers are going to be DoS'd to shit

[primal kelp]

just connect to south africa like me

[hallow isle]

Gives you 1 day to preload it

[primal kelp]

and

you have fiber no

[hallow isle]

if you want to start playing on the 1st

[primal kelp]

thats a 30 min preload

[hallow isle]

yes but so does every other mf these days

I guarantee it, it'll download at dial up speeds no matter what you do

[humble marsh]

I mean my downloads are slow but it still wouldn't take more then one day to download

[primal kelp]

ill make sure to ddos your net

[hallow isle]

127.0.0.1 come at me

[night blade]

[mossy mulch]

Falling sleepp

@eternal thorn @steady vale either of you want a 'geshin impact gift bundle'?

[night blade]

[eternal thorn]

dm it to her

[hallow isle]

stick an ibuprofen next to it, they'll balance out

[night blade]

I can only do Ketoprofen

[steady vale]

My dms might be closed

Dm it to Ceryn

[eternal thorn]

[steady vale]

[night blade]

Thank you for considering us

[hallow isle]

[night blade]

[hallow isle]

No worries, you're literally the only regular genshin players I know 😄

[steady vale]

Normally

[hallow isle]

Am dude, tried to DM Moon, theory confirmed

[night blade]

Am girl, never tried to DM Moon, theory confirmed

[hallow isle]

Give it a go, unless you handle rejection poorly

[night blade]

I learned to handle rejection well

but

I just have no matter for DM's

you're only one to get special feet pics, Adam

[hallow isle]

[steady vale]

I Hate dms. Just makes me nervous, normally if I dm someone I also add an apology for dming them

[night blade]

there is that variable too

[pale meadow]

I am used to it lol

Having faced a lot of rejection irl

[night blade]

also bottling those feelings up does not count

[pale meadow]

No, in my case it does a lot of damage lol

[hallow isle]

fill them with pus, sell them as milk

theres nothing i need to dm people here i couldnt ping for

[night bobcat]

Yo what

[humble marsh]

also send me a friend request so I get an ego boost

[primal kelp]

i think last i dmed was to ronin to apologise about something but dont think he saw

[pale meadow]

I only dm someone if they opened a ticket in PGSC and failed to check back in after opening it

[night blade]

Jealous ?

||My stomach hurts, i am crying of laughter||

[night bobcat]

[cursive agate]

New Xbox enforcement is awesome.

[opaque tartan]

I usually do

[cursive agate]

You'll never lose access to your games & can come back & start fresh as after 6 months of having no infractions they'll be wiped clean.

Alsot no amount of spam reporting will result in a ban & will be reviewed prior.

My account is clean never been banned or suspended & I'm proud of that.

[night blade]

A girl ? :o

[night blade]

Should be 5 strikes

[humble marsh]

yeah 8 is wayyy too much

[opaque tartan]

https://youtu.be/ryDOy3AosBw

[opaque tartan]

Yeah had to say goodbye to the last one

[night blade]

I listen to it on Deezer

[night blade]

oh no

[opaque tartan]

oh yes

[night blade]

🫂

[opaque tartan]

It's a good thing

[night blade]

ah okay

[hallow isle]

3 strikes, but you have to get your parent or guardian to write a letter apologising for your behaviour for each strike after that

[cursive agate]

Even one strike can make it so you can message ect

[night blade]

if minor yes, how about major

[opaque tartan]

Then you write the letter yourself

And send a picture of you licking Master Chief's boots

[hallow isle]

TV show, xbox court, have to tell judge judy why you dropped an n bomb while playing league

[night blade]

Bet

[cursive agate]

You can get permanently if you do a major violation like fraud ect

Or something that's illegal or a felony.

[opaque tartan]

Ok you win

[hallow isle]

Judge Rinder for the UK ofc

[cursive agate]

Yes but I want Judge Judy as the host

[opaque tartan]

Maybe he could do the US one too

[jaunty copper]

8 strikes?

[cursive agate]

@jaunty copper Yes & you can come back from that.

Which is good. Outright banning people forever hurts consumer confidence.

[hallow isle]

idk

I'd be down for executions tbh

[night blade]

executions ?

like run software ?

[primal kelp]

perm bans should still exist

[hallow isle]

no, like, pew pew

get banned from xbox and a hit squad is dispatched

have to live life on the lam

[night blade]

Being actually Swatted then you receive the last strike ?

[hallow isle]

yup

[night blade]

Hall of Shame

[hallow isle]

or close the loop, just put a big block of semtex in every console

[night blade]

Having the reasons of strike publicly displayed when connecting to the game

and having your profile tied to your real identity

[pale meadow]

I moved to mostly Google apps anyway

[opaque tartan]

Can you disable it in the app settings?

[pale meadow]

You can, I would want to fully remove it

[opaque tartan]

Yeah it sucks when they add bloatware like Zuckertrashsoft

[pale meadow]

Yep

[tardy juniper]

This cable somehow wrapped around nearly every other wire coming from things off my desk, only to loop around and find it's plugged into the USB hub on the desk

But if I root my phone I loose Samsung pay, I use it a lot

[opaque tartan]

Don't root
