Then we're just mutes.
ripe tendon
I'm gonna walk in and say "I'm Fymrin. I was fucking with you all the whole time!"
barren pewter
how?
unborn spruce
Then we're just mutes.
2 mutes, together at Wootup.
barren pewter
I want to know
oak gyro
Maybe you could get government ID or something but that wouldn't convert to online persona.
unborn spruce
Yeah, that’s not hugely difficult to piece together.
small comet
I want to know
we know more bout u than fymrin
oak gyro
Yeah, that’s not hugely difficult to piece together.
Make it 5-10 mutes and it becomes more difficult.
Split it 50/50 between male and female and it's just a giant amount of confusion.
unborn spruce
Make it 5-10 mutes and it becomes more difficult.
It makes it easier if anything.
barren pewter
we know more bout u than fymrin
and...what you do know isn't enough to connect to a face I'd obscure somewhat and a voice you'll never hear
unborn spruce
Look for the cluster of mutes and begin social engineering and people watching.
small comet
eh we can just hack ur phones
ill just watch a few more c3 talks and were good to go
oak gyro
eh we can just hack ur phones
My Pinephone has full-disk encryption and a 12 digit password.
unborn spruce
Then we only need to find the pinephone since we know you have one.
unborn spruce
And nobody else is likely to.
unborn spruce
Tony knows.
Either it’s unable to be hacked in which case it’s yours, or it’s able to be hacked in which case we can check.
Either way gives confirmation.
barren pewter
I probably wouldn't even take my phone

barren pewter
Bullshit.
I don't give my phone number to anyone, and I usually don't even bother to carry it in my daily life
pretty sure the only people who have my phone number are my immediate relatives
barren pewter
I seriously don't
oak gyro
Phone banking, google, phone calls, digital maps, FUCKING UBER.
I don't use any of that.
unborn spruce
How do you exist?
oak gyro
Signal at home exclusively and that's it.
Imagine a mobile phone but you use it as a landline. That's what I do.
unborn spruce

I don't trust uber since taxis have actual safeguards for passengers, I have a solid grasp on my entire city's geography, I use google, banking and all that magic on PC

unborn spruce
Why are you both Amish?
small comet
both farther behind than the literal 70yr oids walking into my shop

ripe tendon
knowing your way around your area and banking makes you amish?
oak gyro
I don't see how our way is "behind" in the times. We simply do the same things you do but different.

Password. Manager.
barren pewter
a variation on a theme, we aren't going out and saying "Technology is a sin"
that's pinch's thing
unborn spruce

oak gyro
thats not 2fa
Do you not use KeepassXC? It has TOTP built-in.
small comet
no
oak gyro
2FA over SMS is never used. It literally makes your account less secure.
unborn spruce
PW managers are strictly not 2FA.
unborn spruce
The manager isn’t 2FA, any excess is.
oak gyro
I have TOTP in my password manager.
It's literally Authy without the bloat and bullshit.
oak gyro
But it is. It can only be opened with a hardware key.
small comet
which means theres just a password on the hardware key
those dont work based on magic just so u know
unborn spruce
Mmm.
oak gyro
They are far better than most people realise.
small comet
and yet you rely on a signle point of failure
unborn spruce
If anyone gets it they have your single extra factor of auth. :/
That’s stupid.
And in order to stay safe you’d need spares in case of a failure.
Which adds more points of failure.
oak gyro
Password key file, hardware key and a password.
That's pretty secure if you ask me.
It requires all 3 to open.
small comet
doesnt make it more complex tbh
just wait a year or 2
quantum computers will destroy all the encryption
unborn spruce
That’ll be all sorts of fun if it pans out.
barren pewter
and then security will constantly be a farce
small comet
it already is right now
barren pewter
nothing but a waste of time and mindless god bothering
best to just keep an eye on what matters and ensure nothing out of the ordinary occurs
ripe tendon
Then we've come full circle again and the world ends and starts all over
can't wait!
unborn spruce
C’mon, apocalypse scenarios are great.
small comet
well the theory is we get quantum computer modules for security algos
that takes a quantum computer too long to solve
ripe tendon
I genuinely and am okay with an apocalypse. Not being from a giant city makes it less stressful
small comet
C’mon, apocalypse scenarios are great.
sadly the quantum computer thing is way too close
with everyone being able to just buy quantum compute instances at big corporations
ripe tendon
we already have those

unborn spruce
For I shall either be one of them or be disconnected enough for it to be unimportant.

completely annihilate it
unborn spruce
How would they fare with cryptomining though?
Crypto will break before Quantums do.
Like...
WAY before Quantums.
small comet
the only thing we can do is make secure algos that even quantum computers will struggle with that might work well on our current hardware
which is easy for software to adapt to
but anything hardware encryption will just stay and break
i think last i read sha-512 was theorized to be quantum resistant
the fact its just theorized and only resistant makes me scared tho

It's okay Avanna, I take a while to figure things out too.
fading spade
Im so stupid .-.
Is Redd actually your cousin? Or is he just making that up to appear more friendly? XD
oak gyro
Who's Redd?
fading spade
The guy in Animal Crossing who "sells" art
mostly fakes but sometimes real but questionably obtained
oak gyro
Well, he's a kitsune so it's rather unlikely to be a cousin of mine.
oak gyro
The wiki says he's untrustworthy so I wouldn't trust that fox.
fading spade
he is
Having the Bowser amiibo would be so handy for this game
Im playing Bowser's Fury
And I suck at 3d platforming xd
There is so much heat coming out the Switch's top vent, my gosh
No wonder, this game is open world
oak gyro
I still don't understand, what is an amiibo?
orchid prism
It's an SD card in a plastic figure that's a Nintendo branded "Mii"
Depending on the game, different things are unlocked.
oak gyro
So hidden levels and that kind of stuff or quality of life improvements?
orchid prism
You buy Metal Mario as an Amiibo and you suddenly unlock him in various ways in games. As a cart racer, as a fighter, giving you a metal skin.
Etc...
And you can level it up in Smash Bros. and such and the stats are saved onto the figure.
oak gyro
Skylanders was seriously underrated.
orchid prism
More or less, yeah.
oak gyro
Trigger Happy was the best.
oak gyro
I had the pirate ship and ghost swords.
barren pewter
I can't speak to the pow wow powers since I only happen to have series one trigger happy
oak gyro
I think there was a treasure chest too but I can't remember what it did.
barren pewter
I didn't get any of the DLC packs
but I have almost all of the series 2 skylanders iirc
oak gyro
Oh you mean the actual ability upgrades for Trigger Happy?
oak gyro
I can't remember what they were. I remember a coin that you threw like a bomb and a coin he shot from his gun which would ricochet.
I only played the first skylanders.
barren pewter
and a third stationary minigun attack
the coin and gun abilities could be upgraded through upgrade paths
coin being turned into a pot of gold and more dealing pretty crazy damage
guns doing loads of damage to fire super fast
oak gyro
I might have to play it again when I disappear for a week.
barren pewter
minigun ability only had one upgrade, infinite ammo
I personally liked gill grunt more though
oak gyro
I remember beating the original game with almost exclusively Trigger Happy.
I had Gill Grunt and Spyro as well.
There was a shark as well but I don't remember his name.
barren pewter
they were included in the game with the portal edition
barren pewter
There was a shark as well but I don't remember his name.
terrafin
oak gyro
Yeah, those were the four I had. I got it for my birthday one year and it was one of the best things ever.
barren pewter
included with the pirate adventure pack
oak gyro
I spent so many hours playing that game.
My favourite line in the entire game: CAKE!
Did the original portal work with the other Skylanders games?
barren pewter
pretty sure it works with giants and swapforce
not 100% sure though since I haven't played them in forever
oak gyro
I liked Trigger Happy so much that he became a statue on my desk. I just put him on my monitor stand and left him there for years.
oak gyro
Well, now I know we have at least two things in common: keyboards and Skylanders.
oak gyro
Oh, he was the awesome golem guy!
I saw him in the stores but I didn't feel like buying him.
oak gyro
I think I enjoyed Trigger Happy because of the luck when playing him or because he was goofy and had his tongue sticking out all the time.
I didn't even know until now that there was more than one version of each skylander.
barren pewter
not each
with series 2, they dropped one series 1 skylander per element
series 3 was about the same iirc
I don't know beyond that since I haven't played any skylanders game beyond swapforce
oak gyro
They seemed to have made special editions as well like Springtime Trigger Happy. Same abilities but he's a different colour and sits in an egg rocket ship.

fading spade
I think the keyword was "good"
barren pewter
just look for ramen shops in the area, then go to their websites and look for reviews from accredited food reviewers
that's what I do
oak gyro
There's one sushi place I want to go to with my friend but he always says he's busy. Feels kind of bad but he's pretty busy with his job so I guess it's okay.
He's also vegan so a sushi place is probably a terrible idea.

I'm such a dweeb that I'm using DuckDuckGo and DuckDuckGo defaults to using Tripadvisor and Apple Maps.
If I were a chad I'd be using Searx and every map service available.
ripe tendon
worst part of duckduckgo is apple maps, imo
barren pewter
if I were a chad, I'd go outside and explore
but outside is scary so I just stay inside and hone my own cooking skills
oak gyro
It's okay Doge, if you're ever in my area we can get coffee or something. Or not because social anxiety. Both work.
oak gyro
worst part of duckduckgo is apple maps, imo
I was using OpenStreetMaps for the longest time and I'll just say that the experience is outright worse in almost ever scenario.
It works but finding a restaurant is impossible.
The database has restaurants and all of that but only if a user submits them so it's incomplete/outdated in some areas.
orchid prism

I was dumbing it down my dude 😛
oak gyro
Near-field communication.
orchid prism
I highly disagree - If you ask people what NFC is... they'd be dumbfounded.
If you ask them what the tech in their VISA cards are called for contactless...they're dumbfounded 😛
barren pewter
which is why you just drop the skylander on the portal... and skylander appears in game
orchid prism
Also NFC aren't typically writable.

like the people who join this server and then ask if one can simply put MX switches in a wooting
oak gyro
When people do message me with an acronym I almost always get the acronym wrong.
barren pewter
yeah...no, wooting wouldn't be using super special proprietary switches if they could do it any other way
oak gyro
To be fair I'm sure Wooting would love it if a company approached them and asked for switches and help making a compatible PCB.
It's just that companies don't.
barren pewter
if wooting and c3 worked together to make lekker compatible switches that felt just like c3 kiwis, I'd be buying em
of course, I'm pretty sure I'd just be buying silo beams and modding them until they work with my 2HE if anything though
if the keystone project peeps would quit fucking around and actually make em...
oak gyro
I want to modify the Lekker switches to have a foam or something at the bottom of the switch so the bottom-out isn't so hard.
barren pewter
no way you could do it in a consistent manner that would be durable
oak gyro
Then again I rarely bottom-out the switch.
barren pewter
that's either from the factory or not at all
oak gyro
I normally push it down about half way before I release.
Once I get my Wooting 60 HE I may give my Wooting One to my friend.
I've used my friend's Lekker board and it was quite nice honestly.
barren pewter
so...you're friends with one of the 42 ish lekker backers in canada
pretty sure there was a fun breakdown map of initial LE orders globally somewhere
oak gyro
They bought it second-hand on eBay because the person that originally bought it didn't like the keycaps and didn't know you could change them out.
oak gyro
The description on eBay was literally "Don't like the keycaps".
oak gyro
Wow, if only other companies had anything as seamless and easy as that.
They must have an extremely large market share with that super unique technology.
That's almost as bad as when I didn't know anything and tried buying DDR memory.
Not DDR4 or anything, just DDR memory. That's what I was shopping for.

have you seen the game though?
it has to keep most of the world in render distancce the entire time

yea but how much detail does the world have
if the switch didn't run on ancient hardware there would be no question about performance
also how stable are those 60FPS
that is just the target

tbf to the switch tho it has a microkernel and most of the resources are free for games as theres no heavy android os chugging on the resources
fading spade
id love to see the OS resource usage when just chilling in the home screen
small comet
homebrew switches can show that easily
fading spade
I doubt it would matter on how many games you have cause they dont do anything when not running

afaik their version of the tegra was semi custom at the time they got it
or at least they had a new one
before anyone else did
X1 was a new lithography afaik
small comet
its default
novel umbra
just makes it more ridiculous then
small comet
the only custom thing is the bootrom patches they have
which is a feature of the tegra that one can store bootrom patches
fringe salmon
yeah nvidia just took something they had and slightly tweaked it, basically stock config with just x cores
nothing compared to ps/xbx customisation
small comet

around the honkers, I presume
in general
fringe salmon
if he wants to make shit code let him do it his bad way if he doesnt want to change it

welp, I see no reason to complain about detailed models
if you can't run it, get a better PC
the shitty coding is only a concern if it actually impacts the experience
fringe salmon
too many polygons details doesnt mean it's actaully more detailed

well aware

decompilation
but the guys said they dont consider switch statements etc
cause usually doing decompile those dont get reconstructed properly
due to compiler optimizations
fringe salmon
yea
small comet
but stuff like suggestions for better class structures and better rendering etc
fringe salmon
either way, decompiling code and telling someone how to make it better is a bit weird 
small comet
was just thrown out
fringe salmon
granted his reaction is also weird
but like, if I want to have feedback I ask and not want someone to reverse it and tell me whats shit
small comet
well they didnt say its shit is the problem
they said theres smarter ways to achieve a better result
fringe salmon
this need to tell others how to make it better when nobody asked is just so weird to me
unless they lead with something akin to "hey do you want some feedback?"
at that point it's fair if he says yes
small comet
imo as long as the feedback is constructive and not just showing how much better of a coder you are its okay feedback
fringe salmon
I think I personally would take it and take a look at it, but on the other hand I can totally understand not wanting to randomly get feedback on something you didnt ask for
small comet
i can get that aswell but then lashing out at those people and not just saying "thanks but i didnt ask for it so please dont do it anymore" is weird af
also wheres the source github
psure yandev never released source
fringe salmon
I thought it was set public by accident and then people saw it
or maybe it was just a decompiled version
at that point when people then started to bash him after he was a dick I ignored the topic
yeah he wast acting weird but just drop it if he didnt want it was my thought process
small comet
i mean the guys doing the vids did
the community that build up behind that was real shit tho
like i remember this one guy who didnt even tag yandev or anything and just posted a thing on how it could be improved and yandev only found out cause people called him out for supposed garbage code when some guy on the net can "do it better"
thats when it starts to get real toxic
fringe salmon
ya idk who did it or where I just saw something and decided it's getting too stupid (and not in the fun drama kinda way)
small comet
kinda sad tbh that such things spiral into just bashing one side without thinking about it
fringe salmon
sadly that is something common in many code areas I noticed
unborn spruce
Guys guys.
We can all get together to bash the Terraria 1.0 netcode.
As bad as this is the netcode is way worse.
fringe salmon
sure but the compiler can optimize shit like that so if he's not hurting others by having others code in the file
not really something that matters
anyway, the ammount of people that started at like 14 years, coded for 20 years on 6 days a week and sometimes forget to sleep and then bash someone who did it for 3 years as a hobby is just too high
like cool bro, go do you linux open source shit and let me be

Yep.
And the netcode is so much worse.
small comet
sure but the compiler can optimize shit like that so if he's not hurting others ...
tbh that looks like a decompiled file cause the fuck is num61 for a variable name
unborn spruce
tbh that looks like a decompiled file cause the fuck is num61 for a variable nam...
It's decompiled, but was confirmed not fucked around with by the decompiler.
Red himself confirmed a bunch of the OG programming in a spontaneous Terraria AMA.
He just randomly went into chat and got asked, turns out it's just hyper janky.

I understand this is entirely in-engine and not exactly what you'd see in game, but holy shit, if it's even half this nice, it's going to look awesome
I may as well try to sell my 3070 to a miner and get a 6900XT
unborn spruce
Remember it's not just in engine, but also running on the best hardware they can obtain.
barren pewter
because 6900XTs are somehow less than 2k here
which means 6900XT, AMD sponsored game
ðŸ§
if I get one, solid frame rates with all the eyecandy settings at 1080p is a go
unborn spruce
Imagine needing a 6900XT for 1080p. ._.
barren pewter
plus...every game I've had limitations with has always been VRAM
it's the 8 fucking gigs of VRAM holding me back
nothing else
reeeeee
barren pewter
Imagine needing a 6900XT for 1080p. ._.
I don't need it
I just really
REALLY
want more VRAM and honestly have no real use for the RT on my NVidia card at this time
it makes a real difference in visual quality, but the frame rate hit is too much for me
Aeon...look, my GPU is worth $1500 CAD, at least
probably more to a miner since it's definitely a full hash rate card
barren pewter
25 ish % more efficient than LHR cards iirc
unborn spruce
To a miner cards are worth the bare minimum to what they can be had for, and also no.
Even LHR cards now operate at 80% speed.
And NBMiner is slowly working toward breaking the limiter open.
barren pewter
Aeon, you fail to realise something
unborn spruce
1200 to 1300 is what miners go for.
barren pewter
there's almost always one chump out there who will pay that much
unborn spruce
Not atm.
barren pewter
of course, if 1300 is the best I can get, then it's the best I can get
unborn spruce
3070 FHR will do an easy 1700.
unborn spruce
shrugs If you can locate an idiot miner, sure.
But none of em are paying that much extra for FHR atm.
Do the math. You lose 20% profit with LHR, but you're charging an extra 35% cost. No sense in it.
barren pewter
if I can get a 6900XT at 1800 CAD (I can), selling my card for even close to 1500 CAD almost covers it
unborn spruce
Just be sure to go second hand.
You'd be delusional to think a 6900XT new is being had for that much.
unborn spruce
No way they'll stay in stock.
barren pewter
nope
unborn spruce
A 6900XT is about a 3080 in hashrate.
unborn spruce
No they're not getting left alone by miners when they're 40% cheaper.

Still retarded BIOS, but hey at least the cooler isn't pointlessly big.
barren pewter
I mean...it's a 6900XT
the alternative is a hopefully 60 FPS experience on my 3070
barren pewter
AMD sponsored
unborn spruce
What.
barren pewter
it'll have fidelityFX, and I'm about 99% sure it won't support DLSS
unborn spruce
Well that there is enough reason to never play it.
We've all seen what the console war did, we do not need that for PC technologies again.
unborn spruce
Oh so it's also on EGS?
Guess it's one of those games that just doesn't exist to reasonable people.
barren pewter
they piss off their playerbase, and most of em just buy it on Ubi's platform
which does suck
but it is better than fuck all
barren pewter
Aeon...please, not the high seas conversation
unborn spruce
Not even that.
I'll just not download it. Less attention to shit like this the better off everyone is.
barren pewter
ugh
here's the issue
I hate it
but...I just love far cry games as a whole, and honestly, far cry 5 was alright and 6 is going to double down on what made 5 different
unborn spruce
My guy, listen.
I love Mass Effect, but if EA pulls something like this for ME5 you're damn right I'm not even going to pirate it.
unborn spruce
Self control is a virtue. If you give a shit about Far Cry and it's quality, don't be doing shit like this. Best way to show that is with the wallets.
unborn spruce
Piracy, Ubisoft doesn't deserve the money this time around.
When they release something of quality that doesn't fuck over everyone else they can have their payment.
barren pewter
I'll avoid that topic, because...yikes
Aeon
the issue is that Ubi signed a mega shit contract that prevents them from publishing outside of their own platforms and EGS
that isn't going to change any time soon
unborn spruce
shrugs Then Ubisoft needs to be shown that siding with EGS exclusivity wasn't a good move to make.
How do they learn? Money.
It's a corporation, they just don't learn in any other way than seeing money not happening.
barren pewter
Aeon
there's also one fun piece of fine print
either way, launching an ubi game on any platform, steam, epic cuck fucks or otherwise, just brings you to their dedicated launcher
it's the same can of fucking worms, just dressed up a different way
unborn spruce
Yep.
barren pewter
I mean...at that point, may as well just fucking get it on their own platform if my choices are support one shit company or support two shit companies
and no, piracy isn't an option
unborn spruce
shrugs You do you, but it's a singleplayer game.
One loses nothing by not dealing with Ubisoft.
barren pewter
Aeon...Ubi at least made the game that'll probably be pretty good, or at least comparable to far cry 5
all EGS did was fuck over consumers
barren pewter
so, I'll vote with my wallet, EGS can die in hell but Ubi's hands are tied
unborn spruce
Ubi chose their grave, let them lay in it.
barren pewter
even if they wanted to, they can'd do much
wait
Aeon
silver lining
exclusivity is through 2021
👀
it's possible it'll just get a steam release date early next year
shit, if there's a january 1st release date for it on steam, I'll laugh on the floor laughing
and ready my credit card
hell, something tells me there's two potential outcomes
- games sell so horribly that Ubi crawls back to steam
- games sell well enough that Ubi cuts EGS out entirely and pulls an EA, selling it on their platform and theirs alone
unborn spruce
Doubt.
If it sells well on EGS they'll continue accepting money from Epic to be dickheads.
And then we're back to now
barren pewter
it won't
I'm sure everyone in the PC gaming community knows EGS is about as healthy for it as eating/drinking sun ripened, 18 month aged raw cow's milk
unborn spruce
Yeah well, nobody actually has self control.
Little degenerates see something they want and just have no ability to resist buying it.
Or they just don't give enough fucks to be decent people.
barren pewter
can't they even piece together that Ubi sells on their own platform as well?
like...come on
unborn spruce
Not even that, my dude.
unborn spruce
When Battlefront 2 came out all of the desperate little idiots went and purchased it even though EA packed it full of P2W and purchased the goddamn lootboxes anyway.
Nobody has self control, my dude.
unborn spruce
Yep, and defo MTX.
barren pewter
I'll just enjoy the bland campaign and different flavour of gameplay that's been hashed over a few times before
no biggie
unborn spruce
What's even different about it this time?
barren pewter
more focus on stealth, weaker character
handmade weaponry, a larger focus on crafting, no perks; replaced with clothing that give stat bonuses
is it revolutionary? no
is it truly unique? no
is it different from before and yet similar enough to easily slip into it like I did with far cry 5? yes
unborn spruce
So it's just another generic game.
unborn spruce
-_-
barren pewter
yeah...
unborn spruce
barren pewter
Aeon...I could say the same for battlefield and COD games
unborn spruce
Yes, and those have both been extremely disappointing for ages.
barren pewter
people always buy the new one, even if the previous title was actually amazing in comparison
BF1 and BFV is a stellar example
also, note to EA
learn to count
unborn spruce
Yeah...
I'm gonna be honest, cod, battlefield, far cry...
All of them are just purely disappointing.
barren pewter
merely last years game with a fresh coat of paint
I can only justify it for Far Cry games tbh
since far cry games are single player and I can enjoy it at my own pace
and also enjoy them again 20 years down the line
unborn spruce
How even? Those are just the same game for the last 7 years.
Play one and you've played them all.
barren pewter
won't be able to say the same for Battlefield games and COD games
since the draw for those are entirely multiplayer
barren pewter
Play one and you've played them all.
I'd argue that isn't true
unborn spruce
Pff.
Minor changes between versions and a shitty story a vast majority of the time.
barren pewter
sure, the engine might be the same, but generally they're building assets, shitty stories and all that from the ground up
unborn spruce
Each game feels and plays the same with an extremely generic story.
barren pewter
that and far cry 6 will actually be an improvement over the previous, as far as murdering shit goes, higher quality everything

5 had some changes coming from 4 and 3 that did change up the gameplay loop
new dawn pretty much ruined it and made a game so horrible I didn't even bother to finish it
6 is going to change up the loop enough to be different, but also familiar enough to easily get sucked back in
that's really the magic of these "generic" games
👌
one might compare them to HSPs, so familiar and yet still so alluring
unborn spruce
Yeah no.
HSPs can be radically different meals every time that surprise you time and time again.
Far Cry is like eating generic paste with different kinds of BBQ sauce.
unborn spruce
It may taste slightly different, but in texture and flavor it's basically the same thing every time.
