Open question: assuming you had access to any weapon (handheld; bombs and missiles are not allowed), how long do you think you could survive being attacked by an infinite number of cassowaries?
For reference, a cassowary is a flightless bird in Australia. They're about 5-6ft tall, weight over 100 lbs, can jump 5ft, can run up to 30 mph, and attack with their feet. They are considered the deadliest bird.
trim wasp
well considering that
unless youve got an anti armor round
you arnt stopping like, a hippo for example
i think probably it depends on your distance to the cassowaries
but max like, 5
at 30mph theyre closing the gap on you fast
and theres a max distance you can hit them at
this assumes you are perfectly accurate too and dont miss
tepid lake
Let's assume the cassowaries start at the maximum range of your weapon of choice.
tepid lake
Any weapon.
trim wasp
so preferably slightly outside radius
so you can ready to fire whne the enter it
but like
"maximum range" is not like, so simple
its not like you are a tower defense turret
tepid lake
Maximum rated range.
trim wasp
your not perfectly accurate, and you arnt inhumanly fast at acquiring a new targe
and like
assume ive got a really long distance rifle
im gonna miss
alot
tepid lake
That's human error, then.
tepid lake
They're running in a straight line at you.
trim wasp
theyre not gonna hit every time
yeah but like
wind, the object is getting closer
its an EASIER shot then moving perpendicular
but they are moving so you have to account for changing bullet drop in the flight of the shot
tepid lake
okay...
trim wasp
and youll need a direct hit to stop the cassowary
or its just a wasted shot
need every shot to be a kill shot
tepid lake
You're not required to shoot just because you're in range.
trim wasp
assuming you head shot every cassowary perfectly, we can boost it to like, maybe 20, with a very very long ranged rifle
cuz theyre still going 30 mph
and you get like maybe a mile
out of the best possible rifle in the best situation
tepid lake
You're choosing to go exclusively for range here.
trim wasp
so theyre on you in 120 seconds
well yeah, at ranged you get the opportunity to kill the most
you arnt winning in melee combat with it
just like you wouldnt win a melee fight with like
tepid lake
As opposed to a belt-fed machine gun at a few thousand rounds per minute
tepid lake
You don't need to hit every shot.
trim wasp
and the whole difficult part with cassowaries is that
thier feather coat fucks up bullets alot, not deflects them, but like, makes them not immediately lethal
look at it in action
all it needs is one kick
only 1 cassowary needs to reach you
tepid lake
Basically yes
trim wasp
assuming they are swarming you
and not filing in to be shot
you can maybe get like 20 at max distance if your perfect
tepid lake
What about using a grenade launcher?
trim wasp
hm
tepid lake
I feel like you hear the words "any weapon" and are just immediately assuming that means long-range rifles.
trim wasp
no bombs i thought
tepid lake
It's not a bomb.
trim wasp
grenades are 100% absolutely a bomb what
tepid lake
I mean you can't drop a bomb out of a plane or whatever. You have to be able to hold the weapon.
No airstrikes.

**I mean you can't drop a bomb out of a plane or whatever**
Technically I can throw a grenade out of a plane. It just won't do much to my enemies.
tepid lake
I don't think it's fair to be in a location the cassowaries cannot reach.
trim wasp
trying to run from the cassowaries would be fruitless and a waste of kill count
so gotta kill as many as possible from max distance, once theyre close notihng you cando
cuz human is put in situation where intellegence is largely useless
you cant outwit a terminator horde of cassowary when they have no self preservation
tepid lake
TO FURTHER CLARIFY:
- You and the cassowaries are on flat ground. They can reach you by running in a straight line
- The weapon must be something you can hold in your hands. It can launch any projectile.
onyx mortar
I don't think it's fair to be in a location the cassowaries cannot reach.

I'm going to be a viral carrier of a disease that is rapidly infectious to cassowaries and 100% deadly after 2 weeks.
I would single handedly wipe out the entire population after dying.
Victory at any cost.

The challenge ends the instant you die.

Doesn't matter how long the cassowaries survive in the context of the challenge.

tepid lake
So the best answer we have is 120 seconds from Zaf, based on the range of a sniper rifle and the top speed of the cassowaries.
I think this assumes though that the first bird reaches you. Does this account for how many of them you can eliminate?
Even if you only wounded the first bird (which is kind of insane, because surely you could shoot and kill the closest one to you in two minutes), you would still probably slow it down. That should increase your time.
sinful cove
tepid lake
The mk 19 automatic grenade launcher has a maximum range of 2,400 yards (over a mile). It can fire 30 rounds in 60 rpm (one every 2 seconds). Assuming I can start dropping 40mm grenades on the cassowaries at a range of 1 mile, with them traveling 30 mph (two full minutes to reach me)...
40mm grenades have a kill radius of about 16 ft, so I'm blasting a 16-ft hole in them every two seconds. It'd take the birds at least one extra second to regain that distance, so I think I could last at least 3 minutes, maybe 3 and a half.

trim wasp
Soap is the only item dwarves will use to sterilize a wound. While dwarves are of course aware that humans will pour perfectly quaffable alcohol over their bloody wounds and onto the filthy ground to get the same effect, dwarves understand that some things are more precious than a single life, and face oblivion with a bit more dignity. The application of extreme heat is also well known to prevent infections and seal a wound, but dwarves consider magma the only legitimate heat source, and the non-lethal application of magma is sacrilege.

Does twitch require any phone verification to stream?

Yeah, that's what they did with me too
I gave them like 10 people streaming movies
onyx mortar
They removed the content from his profile and then moved him to Just Chatting.
He's still streaming Breaking Bad
It's honestly insane
daring dirge
The issue too is that he shows up top, since so many are watching him
Maybe a shadow ban would be interesting. Don't show them anywhere without direct links (this is more for repeat account makers)
Idk, I'm just glad I don't own a streaming platform because these are issues I wouldn't want to deal with, which I guess is how they're handling it too
onyx mortar
Shadow bans aren't necessary.
Just ban the guy basically.
Violation of content rules = ban.
It's not a hard decision in cases like this.
There isn't a lot of gray area.
daring dirge
Yeah, I agree with that. Idk why I was thinking shadow bans
I think it's a numbers thing imo
onyx mortar
Maybe?
Honestly it's not good for growth because it's the kind of growth you don't want to have.
daring dirge
But maybe I should stop trying to rationalize on assumptions lmao
Yeah, it's not good.
onyx mortar
Yeah I try to go on only what we can prove.
Easy to drop down a rabbit hole of assumptions.
They definitely need reporting tools on the platform itself
Relying entirely on Discord tickets is... a meme at best.
daring dirge
Yeah exactly. I'm surprised they released it so early without these things. I would have built out moderation first, knowing how the internet is.
onyx mortar
It's actually been online since mid November.
So they've had a bit of time to figure things out.
Everyone was waiting for Trainwrecks to announce
So that flooded the site.
daring dirge
Does not make their case any better haha. Yeah, these are quite simple things too. Like really.... NO BAD WORD CHECKS ON USERNAMES
That takes like... a few minutes at most, utilizing already made lists.
onyx mortar
Name filters -can- be tough due to tons of other characters.
You can spell a slur using symbols etc so they would need to block certain charsets.
Usually a name can be English A-Z some symbols and numbers.
From there you can at least basic filter the names.
Twitch has a similar problem with this.
daring dirge
I agree, but they have nothing from what I've seen
daring dirge
But yeah, string exclusions are a bit wonky. I had a chess bot that removed moves from chat. Always ran into weird cases
onyx mortar
The main issues I see are.
- Lack of basic security features like 2FA.
- Lack of reporting tools for streams.
- Promotion of Copyrighted content through the "Pools, Hot Tubs, and Movies" category.
No idea why they even changed it to "Movies" lol

It's irrelevant whether they make money or not, if they're not moderating that stuff properly then yes they can be sued.
They currently don't make money of much of anything other than the gambling stuff since there's no actual ads yet from what I can see
onyx mortar
They do not make money currently.
No ads, no sub button, no donations.

But that's... not a thing
Hope they get their stuff together. This is farily incompetent... which is weird because it's owned by people that already run a different large website
onyx mortar
Agreed,
It deleted the site admins chat for everyone in the channel.
It's like if one of our mods banned a wrench in chat on Twitch.
honest verge
While I'm not sure if their claim is valid or not, I can totally see that being a thing.
A channel owner might decide to ban someone who's staff which blocks them from talking in chat, but not from taking moderation actions (such as banning users etc). Chatting is not a moderation action so it's not really relevant if staff can or can't do that
stark sentinel
was going to hypothetically wonder what would happen if someone blocked a staff on kick but I see that's not a feature, yet

While I'm not sure if their claim is valid or not, I can totally *see* that bein...
A channel owner should never be able to ban a staff member LOL
Imagine me banning a Wrench on Twitch.
dude, what
stark sentinel

tepid lake
🇫 I guess
honest verge
Ok but imagine that all that banning that "wrench" does is stop them from talking, but they can still look at the chat and ban people and do their actual job?
Cause imo talking in chats isn't part of that job, usually when I see "wrenches" talk it's just regular conversation like any other, not issuing warnings or whatever
idk it's
eh
onyx mortar
Why would you ever allow that? LOL
There is no legitimate positive benefit to allowing streamers to ban employees of the platform.
honest verge
True.
I guess if I was to give them extreme benefit of the doubt I'd say it's so that mods can maintain their own communities as long as they don't break TOS without anyone forcibly having access to them, but I'm far more inclined to say they just messed this up lol
Like they have messed up many other things lol
onyx mortar
If a staff member is somehow damaging the experience of a streamer then it's an employment issue.
You report that.
Allowing some random dumbass who is streaming Breaking Bad to ban a staff member who for some reason is giving him a warning IN CHAT is literally the dumbest moderation fail I have ever seen on social media.

Changing your profile pic to their NFT and then asking them if they like it is the only correct path.
They have minimal moderation both on Discord and their website.

@onyx mortar Turns out that there are multiple definitions to "Scientific Theory" but they generally have two some things in common:
- They are almost entirely true; have so much testable and repeatable evidence/tests that it cannot be proven false.
- Specifics of the theory may change
Here are two examples which I found from wikipedia:
The US National Academy of Science defines a scientific theory as thus:
The formal scientific definition of theory is quite different from the everyday meaning of the word. It refers to a comprehensive explanation of some aspect of nature that is supported by a vast body of evidence. Many scientific theories are so well established that no new evidence is likely to alter them substantially. For example, no new evidence will demonstrate that the Earth does not orbit around the Sun (heliocentric theory), or that living things are not made of cells (cell theory), that matter is not composed of atoms, or that the surface of the Earth is not divided into solid plates that have moved over geological timescales (the theory of plate tectonics)...One of the most useful properties of scientific theories is that they can be used to make predictions about natural events or phenomena that have not yet been observed.
The American Association for the Advancement of Science:
A scientific theory is a well-substantiated explanation of some aspect of the natural world, based on a body of facts that have been repeatedly confirmed through observation and experiment. Such fact-supported theories are not "guesses" but reliable accounts of the real world. The theory of biological evolution is more than "just a theory". It is as factual an explanation of the universe as the atomic theory of matter or the germ theory of disease. Our understanding of gravity is still a work in progress. But the phenomenon of gravity, like evolution, is an accepted fact.
I am not saying that your definition is wrong, but just to say that there isn't an exact definition (although it is fairly precise).
For example, cell theory is a theory which we know is true. While we do not know everything about cells, what we do know about cells is almost entirely true.

Ok, wow, that's very impressive
sharp stirrup
Roblox is a pretty solid tool by now and is getting exponentially better. Their engine team has some of the most talented and smart peeps out there too
Like with any tool though, it's also about using it right
steady yew
Oh yeah, like you can do some very interesting stuff from when I checked it out around a year ago?
I know was interested in making a game on there, may of been decent way of funding, but I saw a lot of negative stuff about it so decided against it
sharp stirrup
You get (more or less) a 30% share as a creator, which is pretty low, they're pretty transparent about the revenue share and how it's calculated though:
It's a very good way to start learning game dev while also putting your creations out there though, so if you're starting out, could be neat
steady yew
yeah, I think someone who thor knows is like high end status on there, cant remember who though
I could learn lua, wouldent be to hard to do, 3D modeling would be a pain however, and what the idea I would want to put down. Plus I am already making a game XD
sharp stirrup
If you're already making a game, definitely focus on finishing that first
steady yew
of course, I am hoping to make the demo and first act (split into acts for big updates) by the end of next year
which atm, wouldent be far off, coding wise wouldent take me long, art wise I am learning sprite work as I am typically a background pixel artist, and as for sound effects and music.... ehhh I dont know yet XD
sharp stirrup
Good luck with all that stuff! Can't wait to see it when it's ready 
steady yew
thanks, the sound effects and music is the part that worries me honestly XD
sharp stirrup
Good thing about those is you can usually keep them for last and iterate on it exclusively
So it should be fine don't worry :p
steady yew
yeah, I wanna design the levels before I go towards music and such, feel should be easier for ideas for music once a visual is made

new Twitter policy is in action https://help.twitter.com/en/rules-and-policies/s...
That's incredible.
Free advertising for Truth Social, Tribel, Post, and Nostr because I've never even heard of them.
If this includes Discord and Twitch, it's gonna be a real pain for video game creators/streamers.
tepid lake
oof
unique radish
If this is as strict as they have made it seem, it basically cuts twitter off from the rest of social media
my question is: how enforceable is it really.
tepid lake
I guess Twitch and Discord wouldn't count as social media, but I get the sense that this new enforcement is to stop all external links, so people stay on Twitter.
tepid lake
my question is: how enforceable is it really.
Well they only have like...a hundred million accounts, how hard could it be to moderate all of them.
Alright that's a little more sane than I initially read it.
But still ambiguous enough that they could use it freely.
sweet magnet
They can! Read it like this
Specifically, we will remove:
- accounts created solely for the purpose of promoting other social media platforms and
- content that contains links of usernames for the following platforms: Facebook, Instagram, Mastodon, Truth Social, Tribel, Nostr and Post.

Very fun
steady yew
damn, I rest for the night and twitter goes insane XD
also, to what level of a competitor? like discord? youtube? twitch? or is it just the ones stated?
honest verge
They don't seem to be banning services which aren't very similar to Twitter itself, so the ones you mentioned are fine.
Unless they happen to be on a "link aggregator".
steady yew
link aggregator? will have to look that one up
honest verge
Linktree etc
steady yew
ohh, wait then that would kinda include your own websites... this is such a grey area for this stuff
honest verge
Yeah, that's the problem, they could extend the ban to anything that includes links to other platforms.
For now they have not, but with lunatics like that in charge I feel like it's only a matter of time until that happens, unless governments force them to change it back (like the EU seems to be planning to)
steady yew
yeah I saw above that there are multiple countries about to say otherwise XD
stark sentinel
steady yew
ohh... maybe they should of explained it like that in the first play my god XD
honest verge
"occasional links" seem to not include bios, which is ridiculous.
And not allowing linktree etc is double ridiculous, because many creators make money on multiple platforms and linking it via one site is convenient.
steady yew
yeah, this is just... making things so awkward
honest verge
Like, yes, a linktree normally has all your socials in one place. It also has things like Patreon, Ko-Fi, GoFundMe etc. Something you could theoretically link directly, but bio space is limited so you'd essentially be locked into having just two-three links.
steady yew
yeah, it's why most people use linktree or make a small website
honest verge
This guy I stg
steady yew
I mean hey, at least he is listening to it from the looks, though he should of asked before honestly
honest verge
Yeah, when you make a big change to a platform you do it as a beta test, look at feedback from the testers, and then push it live
Though I don't think this change would have gotten any positive feedback because it's just removal of features and not adding anything
steady yew
well it is meant to remove the ad bots in theory, but again no need really for it as you said
honest verge
Ad bots? Linking to innocent platforms like FB or Insta?
And not to garbage websites?
plucky ledge
see I would go "hey good he's listening" but I can't bring myself to believe NOBODY at Twitter told him this before the announcement
honest verge
Because ad bots link to garbage websites with a domain name that's like fifty letters long and is like "meetgirlsfreenow dot com"
plucky ledge
so while yes this is a bit tinfoil hat, I feel like musk is just pushing stuff out, hoping it sticks and then when it inevitably doesn't he's all "ok yeah I'll listen to you guys" for goodguy points
