Forgot the name

Modified app

[wheat kraken]

YT Music?

[fading spade]

Yeah, Google made dark theme for youtube on iPhone almost 8 months before they added it to Android .-.

Yeah, for music in bed and while driving

[trail dove]

speaking of music while driving
has anybody tried spotify's car thing

[wheat kraken]

The car thing is slow and still requires a phone

It looks cool but seems like a waste to me

[fading spade]

car thing?

my car is not fancy enough for that

[wheat kraken]

Spotify's Car Thing

[fading spade]

I need to use AUX CABLE .-.

no BT even

[wheat kraken]

It can provide through aux

[fading spade]

cant skip a song due to not being able to use phone while driving

so I made a car specific playlist

[wheat kraken]

I'd like at least AUX for dad's fucking car but no of course not...

My car has a nice Sony radio

[trail dove]

my car doesn't have bluetooth but I bought an adapter so I can still use it

[fading spade]

my car's radio system is integrated with the dash, cant just slide it out and put a new one in like a disc drive

[trail dove]

plugs into 12v port and uses a frequency on the radio

[wheat kraken]

This fucking car has Bluetooth but only for phones calls

[trail dove]

that's wack

[fading spade]

Same with my aunt's car and thats from 2020 🤦‍♀️ and its an electric car

[wheat kraken]

It also has a god damn dedicated iPod thing.

Like... ipod classic

[fading spade]

iPod
oh wtf

o.o

not even iPhone?

[unborn spruce]

Fucking iPod classic...

[wheat kraken]

I doubt it. It's a 30pin or maybe 40pin connector. I forget what they used

[unborn spruce]

https://tenor.com/view/flashback-seasamestreet-gif-10051490

[wheat kraken]

I'm tempted to buy a mini 2nd gen. Mod that fucker. And slap it in here with my favourite music

[fading spade]

physical dock?!

[wheat kraken]

In the arm rest is a proprietary port with a proprietary cord to iPod connector

[fading spade]

👀

I see

[wheat kraken]

It hooks into the radio and you can control the iPod from the radio

[trail dove]

mine doesn't even have an aux port, the disc port doesn't work and I have no casettes for the casette deck lol

[fading spade]

if its older than 2010, I understand

[wheat kraken]

This fucking car has a god damn hard drive in it that you can upload discs to

[fading spade]

oo...

[wheat kraken]

It's a 2010 Nissan Murano

[fading spade]

thats new

same year as my car and I dont have anything but radio and AUX

[trail dove]

mines 2003

[wheat kraken]

This radio has a big dumb AUX button but no port

[fading spade]

LOL WUT

[trail dove]

same

[wheat kraken]

I assume that's for the iPod

[fading spade]

ah

makes sense maybe

Make convert it to headphone jack internally

[trail dove]

it's really weird on mine though because it doesn't change the radio settings when pressed

[wheat kraken]

It has SiriusXM though and someone's still logged in

[fading spade]

wut that?

[unborn spruce]

@bleak pike Do you get that thing in D2 when despite having shitloads of VRAM a video or plex will lag when you're in D2 itself. But when you tab out the performance goes back to normal.

[wheat kraken]

You can be damn sure I'm bumming that until the previous owners either cancel their account or remember

[fading spade]

LOL

[wheat kraken]

Satellite radio

I've found some decent bands through it

[bleak pike]

Its an issue with nvidia

[unborn spruce]

Ah.

[bleak pike]

And hardware acceleration with two monitors

[unborn spruce]

Know a fix?

[bleak pike]

Turning off hardware accell sometimes fixes it

But it's annoying aye

[unborn spruce]

Just trying to watch Clone Wars season 7 and stomp noobs in D2. :C

So what, disable acceleration via nvidia control panel? @bleak pike

[bleak pike]

Disney plus skrub

[bleak pike]

Via plex I think

#SendNukes

[trail dove]

lol

when fh3 first came out with the designs I got a bunch of hentai ones before the devs got super strict with those and would ban accounts with them on cars

[ashen lark]

War thunder just makes sense

[feral ferry]

Your gif does not

[ashen lark]

It’s not a gif, just recording of pc screen from phone

[bleak pike]

Can't be assed buying animal crossing

Or well csnt afford it

And I have been forced to remake my character

[fossil solar]

Teardown part 2 is fucking sick

[bleak pike]

As I was sharing my friends library

[ashen lark]

Just found a small armor duplication glitch in 1.16.5, haven’t tested other versions yet

[orchid prism]

Oof... PC turned off mid cutscene. 3k queue to get back in.

[fading spade]

"Steam Deck Deposit - Steam Deck - Final Packaging + Dev Kits - Steam News" https://store.steampowered.com/news/app/1675180/view/3122680206583792325

[bleak pike]

https://tenor.com/view/its-perfect-david-rose-david-dan-levy-schitts-creek-gif-20798470

[fading spade]

Yes!!

I really like the lowkey packaging

[orchid prism]

Well... I think I may have found out what's causing my PC to shut down.

My CPU is at +85C playing FF... Probably more if I turn the pump back down.

[trail dove]

I have a friend who's old pc would just stop cooling itself randomly and would get to +95C highest we ever saw it get was 106C before it would shut off, due to that reason it didn't last long

he got it as a christmas present which was crazy but was also the reason why he was unable to file a warranty claim

[young hill]

Damn

[orchid prism]

Welp. Loop is dead. Going back to air cooling. Fuck my life.

https://c.tenor.com/wHPha7SEUgcAAAAM/seriously-im.gif

[fossil solar]

Teardown is so good

[ripe tendon]

That timer seems to align with my FPS counter when I play that game

[ashen lark]

Pump died?

[orchid prism]

Nope. Mystic Fog clogged it all.

[ashen lark]

Is it that bad? Was thinking of using mystic fog

[orchid prism]

Everything is fucked.

Both blocks have permanent stains.

[ashen lark]

For how long did you have mystic fog there without changing? Also could soft tubing have helped it or?

[bleak pike]

At least your gpu is fine

[orchid prism]

Yeah... and out of function for the time being.

New and improved. 5600X running on a stock cooler with a 1660TI

[bleak pike]

Oh right yes

Cos waterblock

Don't tell @edgy ore you casually have a backup 1660 TI while she's using a 1050 TI

During the xiv launch thing

@orchid prism why is it so smol

[orchid prism]

The GPU?

Also I'd hardly call it casually. Had to bribe wife with Netflix cause she can't play Sims anymore.

[bleak pike]

Sims

[bleak pike]

Ye

[orchid prism]

That's how small a 1660TI ITX card is...well once you remove the decorative plastic cover. They've essentially slapped an Intel stock cooler on it and put a plastic shell around it.

Goddamn this stock cooler is loud.

[novel umbra]

Tf

How does it not run sims

[orchid prism]

Sims 3 on onboard is... not a fun experience. 😄

[novel umbra]

Ah

did not read everything

[orchid prism]

The trouble with watercooling GPUs is that the thermal pads are often one time use and fall apart. So I couldn't even slap the terrible HP air cooler on my 3080 again if I wanted to.

[bleak pike]

Looks better without the plastic ngl xD

[fading spade]

thats what my card looks like

same series actually

[young hill]

And I have no words

Wow just wow

[wheat kraken]

what's the big deal?

[young hill]

The fact the repulsor can change the game quite a lot

[wheat kraken]

oh that thing

[young hill]

Just like the grapple shot

[wheat kraken]

nfc

grapple looked cool as shit ngl

[unborn spruce]

Grapple shot is so good.

[young hill]

Also grenades to launch objects

[unborn spruce]

I've hijacked like 20 Wasps with it so far.

[young hill]

Like everything feels alive

[unborn spruce]

They never expect the sticky rope.

[young hill]

Honestly wish the drop wall was better

It can be destroyed with a greande

And seems useful in campaign

But I cannot say the same in multiplayer with everyone spamming grenades

[unborn spruce]

Grenades are kinda tough, ngl.

Like yes, high explosives should hurt, but this much?

[young hill]

Yeah and maybe we should not begin with them

[unborn spruce]

Beginning with 2 and having spawns goddamn everywhere is the problem.

[young hill]

Reminds me of watchdogs 2 multiplayer

Drones spamming a bunch of ieds

[young hill]

Nah spawning is fine

Since one person can take jt

And then you have to wait

[unborn spruce]

Hell no.

The spawns are too many.

[young hill]

Probably depends on the map too

[unborn spruce]

I can get the stickies being all over the joint, but not the new grenades.

[young hill]

The new Mombasa one probably

[unborn spruce]

Those things are fucking terrifying.

[young hill]

Honestly they could limit grenade spawns to 1 grenade on the new Mombasa map and no grenades on the player at the start on quick play

Very easy fix

It either is a bunch of people spamming grenades or someone throwing all of them past a corner

[willow quiver]

but not this color scheme model xd luckily, the regular colors are slightly cheaper

[fading spade]

[feral ferry]

Still wouldn't play

[fading spade]

Xd

https://www.engadget.com/arma-3-dayz-proton-battleye-support-224625719.html

Games I have not played but still good news

[novel umbra]

[young hill]

They lived right to the old age

[fading spade]

O.o

If it does well

WTF is this excuse

[trim rock]

They don't want to give Valve the 30% (or 20%, or 25%...)

[young hill]

Here is the thing epic gives them more money

And past valve products were quite niche

Doing well and being being also are two separate matters

[fading spade]

I guess

[novel umbra]

Games that care about anticheats won't get linux versions of battleye

Btw

[quasi gulch]

what does that even mean? isn't it just a micro-PC that can launch anything (low-spec)?

so why would Ubisoft need to specifically support it?

[novel umbra]

They don't

[trim rock]

Think that just means releasing on Steam again

[fading spade]

devs legit just need to tick a box to enable it, its not hard

I assume it just adds proton to a whitelist

[novel umbra]

It doesn't work well though

[quasi gulch]

what Yamatok probably means is that you can't guarantee a secure online environment if you allow Linux OSes to qualify

[novel umbra]

Battleye through a proton layer is unable to detect stuff well on linux

[fading spade]

why not?

[novel umbra]

And even with a dedicated linux version it won't be good

[trim rock]

At least with EAC it uses the native anti cheat module tho

[fading spade]

If someone is using Linux, they are happy enough that the game is working to bother trying to cheat in anyway

[quasi gulch]

much easier to bypass for cheaters

[novel umbra]

It relies on signed windows drivers mainly

[trim rock]

Wouldn't be surprised if BE does the same

[novel umbra]

Even with a linux native version

And something hyperaggressive like valorants vanguard

[trim rock]

Doesn't change the point that the Linux versions are purely userspace and probably piss easy to bypass

[novel umbra]

It is stupid easy to be bypassed ln linux

You can just launch multiple kernels etc

Battleye would be bypassable just by using sudo

• gl detecting linux in a vm

Is basically impossible with windows

But less overhead in linux

So you can essentially just run it in a separate VM with just the game on it

[quasi gulch]

wonder how Valve games do anticheat (if at all), Dota for example

[fading spade]

VAC

[trim rock]

Which is rather ineffective from what I've heard, even on Windows

[barren pewter]

a simple steam sign in, which is easy to cheese

iirc

[quasi gulch]

it seems to be, thats probably why they locked ranked modes behind phone verifications/premium accounts

[young hill]

Could they just not decide to lock down or remove features on Steam OS

To prevent such situations with anticheat not working though?

[novel umbra]

No

[quasi gulch]

@young hill steam os runs on Linux, probably an Arch derivative, so all it's problems are Linux problems

[barren pewter]

used to be debian

[young hill]

Well that sounds like tough luck then

[trim rock]

Yes it could be more locked down and "secure", similar to how Android is

[barren pewter]

steamOS 3.0 on the steam deck is Arch

[quasi gulch]

used to be debian but they got pissed at slow update process

[barren pewter]

that's what I expect, personally

an OS so locked down that cheating is really hard

[fading spade]

same

Good luck getting drivers required for this APU on Debian without too much backporting

[quasi gulch]

it's against Valve's marketing gimmick, they are all about open environments nowadays to rival Microsoft and Apple

[young hill]

Sigh

[quasi gulch]

so they won't lock down SteamOS

[fading spade]

I reckon a lot of people may install Windows regardless on Deck

[young hill]

They could just allow tinkering

[fading spade]

so SteamOS wont matter much sadly :/

[young hill]

Outside steamos

[trim rock]

Well from what we know it's kinda locked down by default, but developer mode is easily accessible

[fading spade]

you can enable "dev mode" with a single terminal command

and do anything you like

[young hill]

Like linux

[fading spade]

ye

[young hill]

Just simplified

[fading spade]

indeed

[quasi gulch]

it's locked behind dev mode for it to be simpler, the entire idea of Steam Deck is to bring more console/mobile people to PC

[fading spade]

^^

its to be a game console that can play PC games

its not meant to be a full blown PC that just happens to be handheld

That is Valve's vision with it
PC gaming with the ease of Press Play and go

[barren pewter]

so it being locked down a lot makes a lot of sense

[fading spade]

yes

very much so

but a lot of people are going to say FUCK IT and install windows regardless

which apparently works well but wont have all the features or the same performance as SteamOS

it wont have suspend on Windows

or auto save sync

or the dedicated hardware buttons to bring up the Steam interfaces for messages and whatnot

[bleak pike]

@unborn spruce we are meant to be doing master VoG

[unborn spruce]

I'd join but I'm doing comp in Halo.

I want Onyx.

[fading spade]

Im so damn impatient for the Deck.....

I just wanna have one already

To think, they were meant to be shipping out by now... ;-; would not have gotten one anyway this year

[bleak pike]

TIL fortnite closes Destiny 2

[fading spade]

I am surprised how far into the lead MK8D is......

how TF is 3D World as popular as ACNH?!?!

[orchid prism]

Included with lots of bundles maybe?

[fading spade]

that explains MK cause that comes in a bundle with the console

but this is just April to September 2021

so who knows

[orchid prism]

The pokemans were also bundled with Light special editions.

Shame Splatoon isn't as popular. But it's also mostly multiplayer I guess which excludes a lot of people.

[fading spade]

yeah it would for sure

im really shit at MP games xd

everyone else is just too good compared to me

[fading spade]

I love the website and idk why

maybe cause each section is the height and width of the browser window so it looks real clean

[fading spade]

Pico-8 games are literally PNG IMAGES

HOW?!

[trim rock]

Magic

[orchid prism]

I mean... Myst was basically a powerpoint presentation with REALLY clever coding.

[fading spade]

Myst?

[trim rock]

Yes, Myst

[fading spade]

[unborn spruce]

Because Nintendo.

Everything they do is absurdly expensive relative to almost anywhere else.

[ornate cedar]

More like nintendon't

[unborn spruce]

[small comet]

@crystal totem pls do explain now im intrigued

[crystal totem]

what exactly, (sorry - you mentioned diablo4 but what about that?)

my expectations about d4?

from blizz?

if you wanted to hear my expections about anything that comes out from Blizzard nowday, (correction - Acti-Blizzard) - i do not trust them with anything at this point - they will not innovate anymore, they will not get you a polisehd game as they used to do back in the day. Why? Simply because it's not proffitable enough - they decide to spend their time where the most profit lies, what sells, not what is good.. And i have this to back me up

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xlOMlt6ANhc&t=683s

The link shoud start at 11:23 - it's a dev who used to work on original Warcraft and Reforged - information coming from inside, telling us what really happend (i mean it was already speculated, but having it confirmed by an insider is quite eye opening)

[feral ferry]

Sounds like '90s

Ah WoW is 2004

[ashen lark]

Warthunder is so good to play on trackpad

[lone oasis]

as much as i never liked WoW, it was, especially at that time, the best game around 😄

[clear parrot]

Minecraft RTX is sssooo pretty.

[feral ferry]

Sonic Ether's Unbelievable Shaders has entered the room

[clear parrot]

I assume those are prettier?

[barren pewter]

it is

if you can run it

[clear parrot]

So far I'm running it pretty decently at 1440p.

[bleak pike]

I don't like Minecraft rtx tbh

It's absolute garbage compared to shaders

https://youtu.be/0qoPC6DyCSQ

@clear parrot

[fading spade]

Thanks, I hate it

[young hill]

that was honestly hilarious

not many games will do stuff like this

[fading spade]

accurate but I hate it

I hate that its accurate

[barren pewter]

Lana

it's a part of the south park experience

[young hill]

might be the opposite in an african country

[barren pewter]

(I set my game to easy)

[young hill]

you mean white

[barren pewter]

no

easy

[fading spade]

yeh

white

[young hill]

XD

[barren pewter]

so...what you're saying is that it's a spectrum

well shit

[fading spade]

The Race Spectrum™️

[barren pewter]

seriously though

it's south park

there's even a minigame for shitting

[young hill]

you could also use the smellovision in the first

[barren pewter]

the push, the pinch off, you even get score for it

xD

[fading spade]

yeah thats the first thing you do in this game

:')

[barren pewter]

I played the Fractured But Whole

[fading spade]

this is that

[barren pewter]

never got around to the stick of truth

:|

[barren pewter]

who is your character's kryptonite?

👀

old people?

[fading spade]

huh?

[young hill]

i think the character creator has a lot of options one of them what doge mentions

[barren pewter]

it'll be something you choose after you make your character

a kryptonite

basically that one group of enemies your character isn't so great against

for my character, it was old people

[fading spade]

fuck towlie

annoying bastard

[small comet]

fuck you

[fading spade]

owo

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

[fading spade]

[fading spade]

Ah, got many games to update

Been a while since I opened Steam on Windows

[young hill]

Why not use Proton or are they unsupported

[fading spade]

Honestly, idk

[fading spade]

Ghostrunner seems to be heavily promoted by Valve on Steam Deck, they say it's the only game that 100% works and takes advantage of all the Deck features like touchscreen and gyro controllers

Can run Windws from SD Card if games will not at all work on SteamOS

Got to look up wtf casefolding is now

[fading spade]

Ooo hek

[fading spade]

https://youtu.be/kbc7IzgTvuU

[fading spade]

what were they trying to say here? so c]onfused

[young hill]

It has flat edges

That goes for comfort and appearance

Anything else is just subjective

I do not understand that last part unless it has HDMI output

[young hill]

Seeing these left and right raises my expectations a bit

Just two days left

[fading spade]

Reminds me of WarFrame on Switch
You cannot login to your main WarFrame account on the Switch version, you need to login with your Switch account .-.

so basically starting the game from scratch again

[fringe salmon]

aand with that I'm done with the Expansion marathon since friday, that was a lot of fun

back to looking at twitter and discord again after days

@orchid prism how far are you?

[bleak pike]

[orchid prism]

Uhhh.... Let's just say I have joined a very exclusive club of robe wearers.

Wibbly wobbly timey wimey?

[fringe salmon]

[orchid prism]

Just finished that area. I always go for flying before I leave 😄

[fringe salmon]

yeah did the same haha

[bleak pike]

That translated differently depending on the context

[orchid prism]

I was trying very hard not to spoil anything.

[fading spade]

[small comet]

pics of the progress

[bleak pike]

I wish the lite wasn’t so annoying to jailbreak lol

[small comet]

its not called jailbreak

[bleak pike]

Exploit

[small comet]

psure its just called install cfw

and its as annoying on the lite as it is on any other patched console

[bleak pike]

Afaik lite needs soldering

[small comet]

so do patched consoles

[orchid prism]

The OG ones are all software.

Well and a dongle.

[small comet]

dongle is optional

[orchid prism]

You need it once every bootup.

[small comet]

use phone

We're talking about different objects.

I'm referring to the jig you need to insert to get the console into an exploitive mode.

[small comet]

jig isnt dongle

also not necessarily

[orchid prism]

Yes it is.

[small comet]

only if you plan to be able to start ofw

you can very well break firm1

forcing rcm on every boot without a jig

thus only requiring firmware injection

[orchid prism]

You're still going to need it once. Ergo you need it 😛

[small comet]

paperclip

any conductive thin strip/wire

do tinfoil mod like we used to

if you have hos 1.0 you dont even need that iirc

cause it has a soft mod and even supports cold boot cfw

[orchid prism]

DIY jigs will more than likely fuck up your console.

[small comet]

i did my first 2 boots with tinfoil

and then soldered a resistor between the pins inside the joycon

[bleak pike]

Omg

Ita a amazing

Its beautiful

I wanna cry

@young hill

Halo BR, ghost and magnum

Full auto magnum is strange though

[bleak pike]

its a sidearm

@bleak pike Gjallarhorn got an unreasonable buff.

Turns out it now enables insane stupidity.

[fringe salmon]

man it's insane how TF2 still pulls top10 numbers on steam

sometimes I think valve has to be pushing that as a suggestion to new accounts but then I also see so many weird custom games that noobs could never find

what a shame they just killed it off and dont care about it anymore

[trail dove]

wtf people still play PUBG

[bleak pike]

oofyt

[young hill]

We shall see tomorrow

Halo 4 story was good

Halo 5 was also interesting even if it was misleading

[bleak pike]

@ashen lark https://i.redd.it/9xaa0bfmv5481.jpg

[bleak pike]

was awful

[young hill]

Yes misleading

They could have done more

With master chief facing two conflicts

One finding the Google assistant and two taking down or revealing ONI

[unborn spruce]

@bleak pike Do you have Gjallarhorn yet?

[young hill]

That reminds me ONI is strange, at the beginning of halo 4 they made it seem like they were a good guy

When for example they remade Emile's helmet to put fear into the enemy

Anyways tomorrow will be time to match up the ads to the game and how it shows the story.

[bleak pike]

over 1m atm

[young hill]

Seems like a lot

[unborn spruce]

Aight so.

Forerunner is literally the Halo CE magnum with full damage and all.

Sidearm my ass.

This thing is a fully fledged hand cannon.

[young hill]

It anything

Probably the most interesting

Out of all of them

Everything else kinda looks like an attempt to copy and not get sued

[unborn spruce]

Yep.

But the Forerunner.

Oh boy.

[young hill]

Watch it probably be a broken weapon as well

[unborn spruce]

it is.

VERY very broken.

Sidearm doing 11k damage crits.

[young hill]

Bungie could just make it tough to acquire

Making it more valuable

[unborn spruce]

It isn't.

Very easy to get.

[young hill]

...

Well enjoy it while it is broken I guess, assuming Bungie patches it

[unborn spruce]

It's not really broken.

Uses special ammo.

[young hill]

Qh

Well in that case very interesting

[unborn spruce]

Ikr.

Special ammo sidearm that's really an anti material fuck off cannon and feels like a beefed up Halo CE magnum.

[bleak pike]

@unborn spruce how tf do people have it

[young hill]

You must understand some people have no life and live as sweats in ganes

By living that kind of life they probably know a lot about Destiny

[bleak pike]

@young hillyes but im pretty sure its literally impossible

im rank 5/half out of 16

[young hill]

If there like an XP limit per day fine

If there is not

[unborn spruce]

Don't need 16 for it.

16 is the catalyst, the quest is from the horse.

I do understand

trust me

The need to build bases thoufh

no base building required

Seems like a completely useless thing

Skyrim let you build a house

Get a child

Get married

But I benefitted from that

Actually

I take it back

It has character models

Im looking at the upcoming games on SteamDB and saw this...

and I have MANY questions

[young hill]

When the title is the description

[fading spade]

YEah :')

[unborn spruce]

Asset flip, it has to be.

[bleak pike]

this is so confusing

@young hill i cant access the campaign via gamepass

but i can access it on steam even tho i dont own it

[young hill]

Weird

Well hopefully downloaded for me by the time I get back

[bleak pike]

now that download was done

i now have an update on my store

wtf

just gonna uninstall it

[bleak pike]

https://mrpl.me/v05209b_rfx9.jpg

fuck off xD

i have to run the damn game

[young hill]

Is that steam or gaypass

[bleak pike]

both

[young hill]

....

[bleak pike]

if i launched the steam version its the same version as the store

xD

my download is steam

[young hill]

I mean sure

But

One is repackaged

[bleak pike]

nah

it seems they share

the same versions

ive never downloaded it on the store

it just popped up for me one day in my libary

[young hill]

Oh

[bleak pike]

they seem to be in sync

[young hill]

So does the campaign now work for you

Also are you gonna make a cyberpunk like a announcement about halo as well

[bleak pike]

downloading

wdym

[young hill]

Lemme find it

Was not an announcement

Twitter · Dec 8, 2021, 8:15 PM

who would've guessed

[trim rock]

Those disgusting g*mers just don't know what's good for them!!!!

[orchid prism]

Silly Ubisoft. Videos cannot be disliked on Youtube.

[slim token]

had eleven thousand eight hundred when i last checked

[unborn spruce]

I won't lie, NFTs would be a super efficient tool for player trading in game.

Be like some of the better item history functions, tracking where it's been, who it's belonged to, how much it was worth, etc.

[fringe salmon]

absolutely not

[ornate cedar]

What added value do they add?

[unborn spruce]

I mean purely in game.

Not traded outside.

Just using an NFT-like for item ownership.

[ornate cedar]

So a reskinned steam inventory but with more marketing wank

[unborn spruce]

Nah because steam inventory isn't so detailed.

[ornate cedar]

So what new thing does it do over the steam inventory

[unborn spruce]

Like I wanna see the entire history of my stuff.

[ornate cedar]

You can

everything is logged

[fringe salmon]

why would you need to add nft for that, you know a normal database is something that exists?

[unborn spruce]

This is true, but I just wanna see blockchain tech in more stuff.

I mean, NFT item could also work between games really freely.

[ornate cedar]

And for what added benefit

[unborn spruce]

Is there a game that allows item trades between titles?

[fringe salmon]

https://docseuss.medium.com/look-what-you-made-me-do-a-lot-of-people-have-asked-me-to-make-nft-games-and-i-wont-because-i-m-29c7cfdbbb79

there you go in much more details on why it's shit

[ornate cedar]

Its like making everything internet enabled

[fringe salmon]

yes yes guy goes on a tangent sometimes and it's probably not all 100% accurate but close enough and I aint typing that many words

[unborn spruce]

Jesus fuck that's poorly written.

[fringe salmon]

if you find some other length written peace that covers it better feel free to give me a link

[unborn spruce]

Thing is this doesn't cover shit all well.

It reads like ramblings of someone that doesn't understand the tech at work.

Like holy fucking shit.

So much of that is just exclusively awful, my god.

Alright, let's go ahead and propose something good versus this trash tier argument system he's been breaking down like a child.

Take a game like Battlefield 4, you earn something cool and cosmetic in BF4 from an event and you wanna use it later for different games to show that you were indeed there and you do indeed have the proof, it's tied to your account ID as an NFT that confirms and validates, on a centralized server owned by the devs, that you were there and it's hard proof, and it's something like an emblem you can carry from one game to the next.
Hell, link it into 10 or 15 games.

Carrying your trophies in your profile outside and inside the game, you wouldn't be able to glitch one in, and you wouldn't be able to do stupid bullshit and make a free one after the fact.

[fringe salmon]

sooo... like you get items in TF2 when you own another game on steam like portal as well

wow such nft needed

[unborn spruce]

Like if I had some of my emblems from D1 in D2 I'd be stoked, that game was epic.

Hence why I said NFT-like tech.

[ornate cedar]

Article seems to outline the most coherent idea around NFTs. Its otherwise a licence you think you own

[unborn spruce]

Yes database it, but there has to be incentive.

Ugh, no devs want to do stuff like that.

Makes me depresso.

[fringe salmon]

why do you need to say nft-like when it's just the same thing as a fucking dumb ass database that can do all of that

[unborn spruce]

Because I can say 'use an SQL database and have all of the historic data shown and available to the end user' and 99% of everyone doesn't know what anything past 'use an' means.

NFTs are more broadly understood.

[ornate cedar]

Why would you want players to carry their items from game to game. More profits are gained if you can resell it the next game again

[fringe salmon]

how are nfts more understood than saying a database????

people dont know jack shit aside from them being pictures which isn't even true but thats what people think they are

[unborn spruce]

You've been in the tech space for too long, my dude. Everyone sees NFT and thinks 'picture I can prove is mine', that means a lot more than database to most people.

A database is this mystical ether thingy stored in the magic 'cloud'.

That's what average people think.

[fringe salmon]

what

[unborn spruce]

Didn't know that?

[ornate cedar]

The legal system already doesnt want to deal with the copyright lawsuits as they are already

[unborn spruce]

Most people have no fuckin' idea what a database is, not even close.

[fringe salmon]

NFTs are so misunderstood and you are trying to tell me that people don't know "database" literally means base for data but know how NFTs work?

[unborn spruce]

I didn't say that.

[ornate cedar]

Most people have no idea what the Otto cycle is but we use them all over the world daily

[unborn spruce]

I said the concept of 'picture that I can prove is mine' is more widely understood than what a database is.

Which realistically is not 'base for data'.

[fringe salmon]

except that "widely understood" concept is completely misunderstood by many of those people

[unborn spruce]

omfg look.

[ornate cedar]

What is the point of having a piece of proof that you cannot legally enforce

[unborn spruce]

Bruh, this article is so cracked.

[fringe salmon]

it's true though

[unborn spruce]

Billions of dollars so you can keep future loot and spending 50k to move an NFT.

KEKKERS THAT IS SOOOOOOOO UNTRUE. xD

That is truly hilariously untrue.

[ornate cedar]

Do you know what for-profit companies are made to do?

[unborn spruce]

Bruh this guy is so unhinged.

Seems fixated on 'real' money that isn't real because it isn't actually backed by anything anymore.

Fiat is as fake as cryptocurrency is.

[ornate cedar]

It isnt

[unborn spruce]

Not like we're on gold standard for most of anything.

[ornate cedar]

cryptocurrencies are completely unbacked and valueless

[unborn spruce]

Yes, just like most fiat currency.

A few are actually backed by something, but a massive majority are not.

[ornate cedar]

Fiat currencies have gold reserves, taxation, the entire economy, its actual use being as currency

[unique bane]

militaries too :>

[unborn spruce]

Ok so, exactly like USDC?

Minus the military.

[unique bane]

also my bank's promise that in the case I lose my real monies, they'll reimburse me up to 100k

[unborn spruce]

So exactly like USDC then?

USDC has exchanges with insurance.

Insurance is known in crypto.

[unique bane]

crypto aint gonne work bro

just a good gamble

[unborn spruce]

shrugs It's working thus far and I'm highly doubting it'll vanish anytime soon.

[ornate cedar]

How much gold is used to back cryptos?

[unique bane]

its only working as a gambling vehicle, not as something to do business with

[unborn spruce]

But of course it isn't working, no tech like this is going to just get mass adopted, crypto will massively change before it gets to the point of being useful.

[trim rock]

Whaddya mean? Tether is the most legit thing, fully backed too!

[unborn spruce]

Lmfao ikr.

Can't wait for that bubble to pop.

[unborn spruce]

For some stablecoins it's 1:1 coin to USD.

[ornate cedar]

Only like 3% of all transactions is as currency. All of the value is speculation and people hoping the number goes up

[unborn spruce]

Which isn't backed by much of anything other than sheer military force anyway, so eh.

I guess the US dollar is as fake as USDC.

[unique bane]

except nobody cares about USDC

[ornate cedar]

So the cryptocurrencies are backed by the fiat currencies? Sounds like an excellent way to have 0% control over your currency

[unborn spruce]

Sure and that's the only actual difference.

We've gotten it being exactly the same minus adoption.

[unique bane]

Not really

[unborn spruce]

Stablecoins designed to be backed by fiats are, yes.

But some exist that're gold backed, one is platinum backed hilariously enough.

Shitloads of crypto exists and that's kinda the biggest strength.

In 10 years it's gone through 4 major evolutions in regard to functionality and 2 of them have happened in 3 years.

It's going faster and growing faster, this is good since it means more experiments and more testing.

[ornate cedar]

evolutions like being able to launder some dirty money

[unborn spruce]

I wager the entire underlaying technology will completely shift before major adoption, but at this rate it's basically inevitable to some degree.

Eventually a permutation will stick and start being used.

[unique bane]

I'm seeing it'll crash at some point

[unborn spruce]

Of course it will.

[unique bane]

What u need tether for when u have digital USD 😛

[unborn spruce]

Mm. I'm just looking at layer 2 and scalable projects like LRC and RTM.

[unique bane]

tbf I don't even get the reason for tether to exist

[unborn spruce]

I agree.

Kinda.

Kinda sorta.

[ornate cedar]

And how is this not just reinventing the central banks and sticking a new label to it. With less control to keep it from hyperinflating or the financial regulation which keep our markets from shitting the bed every 4 to 7 years

[unborn spruce]

Tether acts as an in between for all currencies, exchanges use it, swaps use it, etc.

People don't tend to use tether.

People seem to use Dai.

[unique bane]

Idk if it's backed by real USD or just following USD like a tracker

trackers are crap

[unborn spruce]

It's absolutely not backed by US dollars.

That would imply the company of 17 people has managed to raise over 60 billion dollars in a few years.

[ornate cedar]

Run on banks lets go

[unborn spruce]

That would outstrip the next closest record by many orders of magnitude.

[unique bane]

I've seen what happened to rare metal trackers vs real physical deposit trusts

[unborn spruce]

Mm, yeah.

[unique bane]

so I'll stick to the real things

[fading spade]

here we go, witcher for the first time

[unborn spruce]

And that's why I'm not endorsing crypto as it's current form being mass adopted.

It's not ready for that.

TUSD needs to vanish, PoW needs to vanish in it's current state, everything needs to be on layer 2, and then maybe it has a small shot.

[ornate cedar]

What is even the point, you are just adding bloat to the process

[unborn spruce]

?

[trim rock]

Isn't layer 2 just not using the blockchain? So don't use the main selling point?

[unborn spruce]

No.

Layer 2 is kinda like having 2 blockchains working codependently.

You have a PoW chain, this hashes the transactions, then a Smart chain that handles shit like validation and smart contracts.

[ornate cedar]

Why would someone bother to use crypto if they can directly transfer the payment

[unique bane]

All I need is a debit card lol

who the fk invented credit cards

[unborn spruce]

When you hash a block and complete it then you send the now hashed block up to the Layer 2 chain, this then validates it in a far faster way since it can combine multiple blocks into a single verifiable header, so you can do just about 500 TX/s on a sub chain.

Best thing is you can then shard the sub chains to scale the TX speed.

[unique bane]

why should a consumer care, seems like it has 0 benefit to consumer who happily pays with VISA debit in 1 second

[unborn spruce]

And this really doesn't hurt the mining or validation speed.

[fading spade]

oh ;-;Locked to 60Hz

[unique bane]

@fading spade rip was about to buy W3 too

[unborn spruce]

You shouldn't care, but you as a consumer, also don't give a fuck about the banks backend infrastructure so what's your point?

[fringe salmon]

still worth it imo

[ornate cedar]

You know how bad it is to be investigated for possible financial fraud and unable to fully explain the process

[unborn spruce]

Devs and creators should care, average randos shouldn't.

[fringe salmon]

just do check out if you want a combat mod or smth before you start or some fixes etc.

[trim rock]

Don't think Witchard 3 has a framerate cap since I see (or saw?) it used for benchmarking a lot, particularly Novigrad

[unique bane]

imagine making a 60 fps game lol thats 90's

oh well i guess its still worth it

[fading spade]

whats this?

[trim rock]

Probably just has the limiter off at the leftmost slider position

[unborn spruce]

The Witcher games are like the Mass Effect games.

Having a W2 save effects W3.

[ornate cedar]

Whether it will emulate a witcher 2 save or not

[fringe salmon]

ah might be true, don't remember bc I couldn't push a stable 100hz anyway on my ultrawide lmao

[unique bane]

I hope they'd make BOTW PC port :/

it was nearly unbearable on Emu

[fading spade]

He took a crow to the eye....

oh gosh

[unborn spruce]

Uhhhh.

It's run great on CEMU and Yuzu for years?
