[regal pecan]

Not so much horribly behind as that they'd have a while before the new guys see the genuinely new content. But if they're new, it should all be new content.

[fleet tangle]

I hate that you can just level faster now.

I want that slow leveling experience!

[primal summit]

then eve is your game

[fleet tangle]

Leveling 20 levels past the area you're in by doing 3 quests was so retarded.

Eve is uncatchupable!

And it wasn't based on effort, simple time since you started playing.

By "slow leveling experience" I meant that it required effort to level up, not just show up in an area, kill 2 mobs and suddenly you're too high level for it now.

[primal summit]

so you want your cake, and you want to eat it

[primal summit]

nope, just filling multiple roles is

[regal pecan]

For most areas I'd imagine 3 quests is a bit much.

"kill 2 mobs" is significantly less 😄

[fleet tangle]

I last played like 10 years ago (wow) and it was stupid then. I can't imagine how stupid leveling up is now.

[primal summit]

how about games without levels

[regal pecan]

once you hit level 60, WoW is about gear, or so I hear

(was it Destiny that came up with the gear level concept?)

[carmine frigate]

now i want to drink cake

[fleet tangle]

Actually it's been 11 years free now!

[carmine frigate]

my sister is really into healthy smoothies and stuff

i should make an unhealthy smoothy when she is here

[fleet tangle]

Healthy smoothies are great. Just add ice cream.

[carmine frigate]

cola... snickers... m&ms creamcake

[primal summit]

add rum to rum cake

[fleet tangle]

Make a really unhealthy, but healthy looking, shake, that tastes fantastic.

Give it to your sister, claim it's super healthy.

Never tell her how you made it.

[primal summit]

irish creme, chocolate ice cream, malt powder

blend

[carmine frigate]

you can allways tell when it holds massive amounts of sugar

the rum is a good idea

mayB some offee 😛

[fleet tangle]

I'd rather just have mint choc chip icecream.

If you want to be really decadent, sprinkle some icing sugar on it.

[carmine frigate]

im a fan of lemon uicecream

[primal summit]

so, you know how rum and coke's a thing

[carmine frigate]

like im really not a fan of huge amounts of sugar

[primal summit]

but what about rum and gin?

[carmine frigate]

ive had some whiskey beer

its not too bad

[zinc matrix]

has anyone ever thought that, if you poop in the metaverse, what kind of garbage collector it requires?

[fleet tangle]

Whiskey beer? Is that like a combination of whiskey and beer? Or some special kind of whiskey or beer?

[carmine frigate]

you know the metaverse is not real right? you will just poop ur pants

[primal summit]

beer brewed in whiskey casks

[carmine frigate]

bring a flask too an expensive club to get wasted on the cheap

[primal summit]

this does not change the question

[fleet tangle]

For that extra special terrible taste?

[carmine frigate]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7lPtr6dQrnY

[fleet tangle]

Exactly.

Reminds of JD with his appletinis.

[regal pecan]

Your pants would be the garbage collector in question.
But are pants required? Does a floor not suffice for meta? Or would they be concerned by the slipping hazard?

[carmine frigate]

i dunno ... if u take ur pants off there are like 6 facebook cameras collecting data

[primal summit]

alternately, metaverse on the porcelain throne

[primal summit]

so, skirt

[fleet tangle]

Sounds pretty shit

[primal summit]

not as shit as metaversing in the porcelain throne

[timber viper]

your eyes would suffer a lot btw

i tried TV monitors once

[fleet tangle]

Terrible idea.

[carmine frigate]

input delay

like ive used a desktop on my tv too start movies

and play games

[primal summit]

high latency, poor resolution for text, modern sub-pixel rendering to smooth things on lcds doesn't work well

[carmine frigate]

but i wouldnt mouse keyboard and play MP shooter vs real pc monitor guys

[celest musk]

well, it depends on the model

[carmine frigate]

also my monitor is 1440/144 and my tv isnt

[celest musk]

if you don't use the native resolution on your desktop monitor, it would also look weird

and "washed"

[carmine frigate]

but some playing some naruto with a friend its fine

So I was talking about not having seen really realistic faces in 3d before and Google showed me this just now.

https://80.lv/articles/realistic-woman-model-rendered-in-unreal-engine-5/

Is pretty good.

[foggy path]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YCT6aXaZcVI

"realistic" woman

looks like one of those korean women who have gone through several rounds of surgery

:D

[fleet tangle]

Still pretty good.

Well, I'm not Asian, so maybe the finer details aren't catching my eye.

Nobody's playing Nobody's Left

[bitter flax]

Sad but true

[tulip orbit]

they're all playing Everybody's Right

other than figuring out why my build system isnt colliding with other objects, my build system is almost done

its not overlapping with other objects for some reason, other than the player pawn

ah. by default static meshes placed in the world dont generate overlap events.

(╯°□°）╯︵ ┻━┻

[topaz depot]

rookie mistake

[tulip orbit]

why wouldnt things overlap/collide with meshes placed in the world?

[topaz depot]

honestly, good question

does it save performance? 🤔

[tulip orbit]

maybe?

but, in my case, I just need my one object to be checking if its hitting/overlapping things it shouldnt be

maybe if they were all generating overlap events, it'd constantly be sending events and crash the engine?

[topaz depot]

could be I guess

event tick consistently fires too tho

[tulip orbit]

I should probably know more about all that, but..... nope

[slim atlas]

what do you call it when people live together in a place but they all share a bathroom, washroom

is that a thing?

share a kitchen

[tulip orbit]

I call it crap

[deep glen]

dorm?

[tulip orbit]

or, a family?

[deep glen]

community

[tulip orbit]

slums

[slim atlas]

mh

well what if you are just a random person

and you are all randoms

[deep glen]

hostel? :p

[slim atlas]

well what if you want to live in a spot permanently

but you dont have your own kitchen

maybe your own toilette and washroom

but a shared shower/bath and kitchen

mh

what if i wanted to live in a dorm

without being a student

[deep glen]

can also be a "shared house"

or multi tenant housing

[slim atlas]

yee i get that

i dont know what i will do

i would love to just not have a kitchen at all

thats a good question

especially on sundays

[fleet tangle]

When I was a student, one of my housemates just left the fridge door open, never put things they'd taken out of the fridge away, never did dishes, etc.

I was no angel at that time either, I will admit.

[slim atlas]

how did they survive?!

[fleet tangle]

Fuck knows.

It was a girl, I assume somebody else just cleared up after her.

[slim atlas]

jezus

i love japan guys

[fleet tangle]

Japan guys?

[slim atlas]

and more!

i will bring all that here

[tulip orbit]

like hentai!

[fleet tangle]

Sweat doesn't actually stink. It's when the bacteria break it down that it starts smelling.

[quasi mantle]

and anime (or rather ACG culture in general)

[fleet tangle]

ACG?

[timber viper]

Animation, Comics, and Games

[broken sigil]

Also metal doesn't have a smell, it comes from the interaction of your sweat and bacteria with it 🧠

[soft night]

https://tenor.com/view/cute-animated-virus-bacteria-thumbs-up-gif-17287749

[fleet tangle]

Honestly, I never thought metal smelled at all.

[fleet tangle]

Except its board gaming culture which is quite small, comparatively!

[zinc matrix]

why i rarely watch yt anymore

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QXA3bxQnhWU&ab_channel=MerrySweetHome

[deep glen]

still prefer that over whatever the bleep it was I ate a few hours ago

orange-marmalade

ive accidentally eaten spoiled and rotten food before, I'd prefer that over this

brushed my teeth, ate other stuff, drank other stuff, bubblegum, etc and still got that taste in my mouth

so. darn. nasty.

I dont trust anyone who could eat that, and would go "yummy"

[fleet tangle]

Marmalade aint so bad.

[deep glen]

i know, but this one is

it wasnt sweet

[fleet tangle]

Marmalade isn't sweet, jam is.

[deep glen]

it was bitter, sour, soapy, detergenty

[fleet tangle]

Marmalade tastes more like orange peel than orange.

[deep glen]

and whoever came up with this disgusting taste should be clinically treated

[fleet tangle]

Heh.

To be fair, I think you just had bad marmalade.

It doesn't normally taste like soap.

[deep glen]

prolly, especially when you wanted pine apple jam, and this was what they suggested as an alternative because the pineapple one was gone

https://giphy.com/gifs/netflix-marvel-jon-bernthal-3ohs7PXpe3try4q9yM

[fleet tangle]

Now pineapple jam is delicious.

[deep glen]

ikr

[fleet tangle]

Similar, but not really, ever tried lemon curd on toast / in a sandwich?

It's delicious.

[deep glen]

again, ikr

i think if you threw this at a house, people would go "dang, why not rotten eggs"

[fleet tangle]

Lol

I definitely think you had rotten marmalade.

Literally and figuratively.

[deep glen]

and spiritually

i know

this was worse XD

even though it actually smelled decent

but the taaaaste

god

anways, going to attempt to drown it out by making a salami pizza

if that fails

tongue amputation

[fleet tangle]

Somebody who doesn't like you?

[deep glen]

it was a new unopened bottle

[fleet tangle]

What?

A botte of marmalade?

[deep glen]

pot bottle thingy

i'll make a photo

then pizza

[soft night]

https://tenor.com/view/pizza-pineapple-portal-spiral-gif-16315871

[fleet tangle]

Jar!

That doesn't look like top quality marmalade.

Was it at a hotel or restaurant or something?

You can even see the orange peel in there!

[deep glen]

some cheap store brand

might improve it

[fleet tangle]

Fancy jam.

dragonHell??

[timber viper]

you helped me at #lighting in a tricky situation once so i'll accept

[thorny dock]

sorry but theres only one god around, and thats ME, THE GOD OF FAILURE

[timber viper]

since when ||Elon Musk's twitter acquisition|| or ||Cyberpunk 2077|| or ||mods idea of converting #cpp to forums|| has an impostor?

[thorny dock]

hey that was fun I love mad libs

im actually elon musk in disguise

when im not browsing twitter all day im making my dream game, a unreal twitter VR hybrid

[fathom wadi]

I wonder if people are prone to over-acting physical movements in VR arguments. I bet someone could get a PHD on that subject for a psychological masters

[regal pecan]

Wouldn't that make you Zuckerberg?

[primal summit]

I doubt someone could; PhD and masters are very different degrees

[timber viper]

from my experience it rather makes you less act towards physical movements

[fathom wadi]

yeah now you mention it I realise the error but the sentiment remains 😄

[thorny dock]

[crapinion] I think there are 2 kinds of VR players, 1 kind does the bare minimum for movement in VR and another kind over exaggerates movements and is really into it. I see what your saying and think their definitely could be research on it

[topaz depot]

for the latter, go outside

[fleet tangle]

I'm excited to see England get hyped and then inevitably fail spectacularly. The tears are sweet.

[bitter flax]

Nuts

Who's into bella poarch

Nvm

[timber viper]

didnt know you were following football

i was only watching in primary school but then I stopped since Turkiye kept failing over and over 😄

damn, pizza is getting more expensive each day

[fleet tangle]

Everything does.

Inflation!

Though, I suppose it actually gets cheaper as the value of your money decreases until the price is increased to match.

[timber viper]

Inflation Rate in Turkey is expected to be 90.00 percent by the end of this quarter

tbh its damn cheap compared to Europe, its only 3$ for biggest size and drink etc

[fleet tangle]

That is ridiculously cheap.

[timber viper]

but when you convert it to TRY it becomes a huge number 😂

[fleet tangle]

You'd pay least 10x that for the biggest size and a drink in England!

[timber viper]

I was surprised how expensive is England

[fleet tangle]

And we're like mid-range expensive.

You go to Norway or Switzerland, and it'll be 2-3x that.

(That may be an exaggeration)

[timber viper]

its fake data

guess the real one

at least 2x higher

[fleet tangle]

Lol

I guess income matches the prices, though?

pre-inflation, that is.

[timber viper]

not really, current money of the country is melting

[fleet tangle]

Shoulda joined the Euro.

😄

[timber viper]

that'd be terrible for Europe tbh 😄

[fleet tangle]

That's why I think the Euro is stupid.

[timber viper]

Brexit fan I see 😂

[fleet tangle]

The idea of a combined currency with such wealth disparity is ridiculous.

[timber viper]

but they are also ultimately taxed because of that in here

[fleet tangle]

I'm neither a fan or a hater of Brexit, honestly I couldn't care less.

I just like the drama.

Well, the UK hasn't collapsed yet, so it can't have been as bad as predicted.

Not to say it isn't bad...

[timber viper]

i just recently read a rumor about Lizz sent a message to USA about nordstream explosion like "its done" and thats why she resigned

[fleet tangle]

Nordstream explosion?

[soft night]

https://tenor.com/view/bond-007-gif-26364844

[timber viper]

nordstream gas pipeline, an explosion happened ~one month ago and russia couldnt transfer gas to europe

[fleet tangle]

Ah.

Did they fix it?

[timber viper]

no idea, whole media was focused on explosion so never thought of the fix back then 😄

[soft night]

the super secret russia sub just happen to travel that way

[fleet tangle]

"Elementary logic" shows damaging the pipeline was not in the Russian interest, Kremlin spokesperson Dmitry Peskov said on Tuesday.
Putin intensifies

[timber viper]

but Poland's head of the state sent a tweet like "thanks USA"

https://www.aa.com.tr/en/economy/former-polish-foreign-minister-thanks-us-for-damaging-nord-stream-pipeline/2696530

oh sorry

it was former foreign minister

I'm kinda disappointed that nobody set the leak on fire.

[timber viper]

lmao

[carmine frigate]

could have been the saudis

but basically any1 with over 10mil in BP or shell options could have blown it for profit

it wasnt that deep.. no professional equip needed

[primal summit]

and yet you have the dollar in the US, similar in size to Europe and with similar wealth and cost of living disparities...

[fleet tangle]

Pretty sure it's not as pronounced as the range in Europe.

You're not gonna get a pizza for $3 or $90 in 2 different parts of the US.

[carmine frigate]

well you could walk 20m and get that diffrence

[fleet tangle]

I am, of course, not including high end restaurants/etc that charge more than something 100m away.

If you choose to pay for higher end goods, that's your business.

[timber viper]

i wonder how it affects the business

not fair to customer means not fair to business owners too

[fleet tangle]

I'm sure you could pay $100 for a pizza in Turkey if you found the right place.

[timber viper]

it would be the most huge one though 😄

[fleet tangle]

I mean for the same size one. 😛

[timber viper]

just a fun irrelevant fact - average Turkish person earns 225 dollars per month

[carmine frigate]

average is often messed up by the top10% 😛

[fleet tangle]

You want the interquartile range.

(25%-75%)

[timber viper]

socialism 50/50

[fleet tangle]

Same as London.

And I guess most countries!

[timber viper]

Istanbul is most expensive, I live in most cheap city by how modern it is

same pizza is probably only $1 more expensive tho in Istanbul

never wondered ¯_(ツ)_/¯

[fleet tangle]

Instead of harem?!

😄

[timber viper]

I believe dragonHell

[carmine frigate]

like 95% of those is imported here

[fleet tangle]

Adult entertainers, dragonHells or garden tools?

[bitter flax]

Tell you guys not having friends is so weird. Anyone feeling that?

[timber viper]

ehm.. dragonHells?

[carmine frigate]

adult entertainers

[timber viper]

I thought god was only one

[fleet tangle]

count(God) != 1 (it's zero)

Where are you even from, owninator?

[carmine frigate]

yea

Amsterdam... we have the red light district here

[timber viper]

oh, owninator, I have friend will visit NL soon, any tips? 😄

[fleet tangle]

I'd like to say British women look better, but I've been outside.

[carmine frigate]

well dutch women dont really work in the red light district ... all import

[carmine frigate]

dance scene i guess

yea east europe

[timber viper]

you know I'm scared to ask wtf it is

[fleet tangle]

Makes you wonder how many were human trafficked.

[carmine frigate]

look up if there is any event or holliday

[fleet tangle]

There's some festival a guy I know is going to soon.

[carmine frigate]

they all have a way out if they want here

unless they have some leverage over em

[fleet tangle]

Having a way out and using it are 2 different things.

Psychological abuse, blackmail, etc.

[carmine frigate]

yea.. but at that point how can they blackmail you

[fleet tangle]

"If you go to the police, we'll kill your family."

You seem incredibly naive, owninator!

[timber viper]

since you didnt mention bureaucracy or anything else i guess it's mostly easy to live in NL?

no army no power

[carmine frigate]

lol its 18mil ppl vs what 5 bil?

[timber viper]

world is still being ruled by jungle laws

[carmine frigate]

china is not rich

[carmine frigate]

i know stuff like that happens but it isnt like thailand or some shit

[timber viper]

conspiracy again huh

[carmine frigate]

they can only do that on family outside country

[fleet tangle]

You'd be surprised. I'm not saying it's everyone, but I think it'd be more common than you imagine.

Why can they only do that to family outside of the country?

You think they can't hold families in separate locations so you can't escape together?

[carmine frigate]

that shit is really rare here

[fleet tangle]

If you say so.

[carmine frigate]

its legalized here for a reason

[fleet tangle]

That doesn't necessarily help people who have been trafficked.

It just means the businesses that have human trafficked women can't be shut down for other reasons.

[timber viper]

this specific one is true

because its historical fact

[carmine frigate]

this is basically true for any1 that has a job tho

can kidnap their kids and make em work for free

[timber viper]

wtf is this convo is about

[fleet tangle]

It's about a difference of opinion on the commonality of human trafficked sex workers in the netherlands.

owninator is basically saying it's so rare it might as well not be happening. I disagree strongly.

[carmine frigate]

im saying its not like in some other countries

[fleet tangle]

...just adding a note of realism to the talk about going to the red light district...

[carmine frigate]

free reign as long as you bribe the cops

[timber viper]

if its so important to argue this much I could just ask my friend when he arrives to NL 😂 .... not even sure how am I going to explain "why" part though

[fleet tangle]

Are you also saying that no cops in NL take bribes to look the other way about crime?!

[timber viper]

where is Au btw

he left the lounge

last message almost two weeks ago

[carmine frigate]

usually its not worth to try

verry low... odds they steal is higher

[fleet tangle]

That just smacks of attention seeking 😛

That did suck.

[slate drift]

There is no way Josai left

Hersey

Wait you mean left left? or left #lounge ?

[fleet tangle]

To be fair, that isn't what happened with Josai.

[slate drift]

Yeah CE didn't show up too, for quite a long time...

[bitter flax]

Guys im dealing with heartbreak

Can yall help me?

[slate drift]

Can you link me to that situation? Cuz that must be new

[fleet tangle]

Superglue: Actually designed to help heal wounds.

About Josai?

[slate drift]

The last drama I recall was the one with Missty, but Josai was righteous (like he always is)

[fleet tangle]

Some guy in #cpp pasted some code that was obviously wrong because he'd included parameter name type hints form a video (somevariable: blah) and everyone took the piss out of him, except Eren, who actually told him what was wrong.

[bitter flax]

That doesn't work come on be serious

[fleet tangle]

Alcohol is the superglue for heartache.

[timber viper]

he actually didnt get a strike

he rage quited 😂

[fleet tangle]

He did.

[timber viper]

did he?

[fleet tangle]

He raged in here because he argued with the mod who did it in this channel.

And was like "I'll just quit then."

[timber viper]

oh.. i didnt know that.. he never bothered to tell 😄

i remember he made a conversation on #level-design and left right after that

and i was acting like he just left because of that convo lol

yes

but no official announcement

[fleet tangle]

Weebs unite!

I don't even remember oh RZ2 ended. 😦

That's like the worst kind of anime.

[timber viper]

i was just a normal person who was only watching very popular animes year to year until 2022

[tame sable]

how can they even make a thirs season

the second season ended properly without any loose ends

[timber viper]

by showing Rem each episode 😎

[tame sable]

ok true

i forgot rem needs redemption

[fleet tangle]

Remdemption.

[timber viper]

it exactly ended like ||future is giving me anxiety|| words by subaru

[fleet tangle]

Did they ever remember who Ram was?

[tame sable]

ram doesnt matter

[timber viper]

you need it to open your computer

thats all

and when you are coding you mostly try to execute your code from cpu caches so ram is disturbing to use

[modest canopy]

I was physically unable to finish season 2, it was so boring haha

[fleet tangle]

I'm just gonna wiki that shit. I can't remember.

[timber viper]

i'd say 5/10

[modest canopy]

Yeah

[timber viper]

the ||loop|| was boring after a while

but first and last eps was lit

[modest canopy]

Ye

[fleet tangle]

At least it wasn't as bad as that other show, which repeated the same episode eight times with very slight alterations each time.

[timber viper]

which show is that?

[modest canopy]

Btw, where can I ask a question? It's not really related to unreal, moreso the launcher

[timber viper]

no need to mention shield hero

[fleet tangle]

The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya

[timber viper]

true, sorry, I forgot my pills 💊

[fleet tangle]

It was still a great anime.

[tame sable]

i hated suzumiya

[fleet tangle]

Weird thing was, the repeats were like 4 at the end of s1 and then 2-3 at the start of s2.

[tame sable]

that eight episode stretch pissed me off

[timber viper]

I'm slowly turning to that person who cant find enough time to finish his anime list and backlog everything ( @ionic flame hi )

[fleet tangle]

I can understand that!

[tame sable]

yeah there was that at least, i was able to skip half the entire anime without any fear of missing out on anything cause there were no notable differences whatsoever

i skimmed just to make sure

[timber viper]

its fine here i guess?

depends on how much its related to UE maybe #ue5-general

did you finish s2 btw?

[fleet tangle]

Shield Hero?

God the second season was trash.

I like how everoyne kept defending it, saying it was so good in the manga. I'm like, this isn't the manga. Fuck off mate.

[tame sable]

after that one episode with all the cgi birds i pushed myseld to finish the season and decided the rest was mid so i never gave season 2 a chance

[timber viper]

i gave up on ep3

[fleet tangle]

CR comments are a terrible place sometimes.

[timber viper]

low poly CGI turtle with 512x512 textures...

and randomly introduced characters

its good on chainsaw man... they know how to do it

[fleet tangle]

I don't mind CGI at all, unless it's really, really bad.

[timber viper]

Mushoku Tensei is pretty cool alternative for Rising Shield Hero's S2

both seasons are pretty cool

and has similar vibes

except one has a proper s2

[fleet tangle]

Ex-Arm. My god. CGI was so terrible.

[tame sable]

yes

[fleet tangle]

I loved Mushoku Tensei!

[modest canopy]

Mushoku Tensei is pretty great!

[timber viper]

s3 is on 2023

[fleet tangle]

Berzerk had some pretty questonable cgi too, but it worked.

[timber viper]

why it looks like... avatar

I saw an anime that is only cgi yesterday

[fleet tangle]

There was a cgi only anime I watched a few months ago that I really liked, about a group rescuing people from towns.

[timber viper]

this picture reminds me of a cool toxic friend who was keep asking questions and using lol at the end of the sentences

cartoon one

yeah, nice avatar remake

[timber viper]

Shinigami Bocchan to Kuro Maid

terrible anime, dont watch

suppose to be romantic comedy but sucks

judging only by first ep though

i liked how you wrote a few seconds and just sent wow

[fleet tangle]

Oh god that was bad.

I watched 3-4 eps before I gave up.

[timber viper]

maybe I just need more time after kaguya sama to rate romantic comedies

[fleet tangle]

There's a similar one that I thought was pretty cute/funny

Saikin Yatotta Maid ga Ayashii
The Maid I Hired Recently Is Mysterious

[timber viper]

my very legal website that I'm watching animes rated it 9.22, which is almost 99% of the time community has a pretty cool taste there. But this was only one I disagree with them

[fleet tangle]

Kaguya sama is ❤️

[timber viper]

there is also a sword isekai currently airing, only 4 eps so far

i reincarnated as sword on another world or something

[fleet tangle]

Reincarnated as a sword is great.

gogoanime?

Over 9000% legal.

[timber viper]

looks like only first ep aired

[fleet tangle]

The series ended already on CR.

[timber viper]

oh.. my legal website failed me

[fleet tangle]

The Eminence in Shadow is pretty funny.

Taht and sword thingy not being on CR is annoying.

Haha.

Definitely a show you watched for plot!

[timber viper]

i remember this one

lmao.. was fun to read what its about but never watched and then forgot

maybe it just serves only ONE purpose

but nothing more

[fleet tangle]

I really dislike fanservice.

Watched an anime recently that had a beach episode without any fanservice. Was fantastic.

[timber viper]

what exactly is a fanservice

[fleet tangle]

Panty shots, boobs, etc.

[timber viper]

oh.. that stuff

[fleet tangle]

Gratuitous fanservice is the worst. No Game No Life was a great anime that was almost ruined by fanservice. 😦

[bitter flax]

So what we we chatting about?

[fleet tangle]

Anime

Hah.

That's the anime with the no fanservice beach ep I watched, Barakamon!

What's a rainbow person? Other than Rama.

Why must you respect other people's choices?

You can accept them, sure, but respect them? No.

If somebody chooses to do something stupid, I'm not going to respect that choice.

There's some basic human respect people should get, beyond that, yeah...

[timber viper]

maybe this was like a XII like sentence where you dont need a entry point to type 😂

[fleet tangle]

That's a choice I don't respect! 😄 😄

[timber viper]

i remember at pandemic era huge part of community was slandering weebs

poor webs got outcasted just because they like animes

dude those words are illegal in this server

[fleet tangle]

There's a fantastically funny fury anime called animal mask.

[timber viper]

[fleet tangle]

Kemono Michi: Rise Up

[regal pecan]

No one:
Daekesh:

[fleet tangle]

Sorry, not a hentai.

Just a regular anime.

Yes!

Fruits Basket is amazing.

Not very funny, though. Just tear jerking.

Sounds like ARK

[timber viper]

@inland oriole You were in NL, right?

[inland oriole]

Yeah.

[timber viper]

I have a friend moving to NL this month... It's going to be his first travel to another country. Any tips? 😛

[inland oriole]

I'm Dieter's neighbour! 🤣

[inland oriole]

Buy "stroopwafels" 😛

[timber viper]

looks tasty

[timber viper]

is that caramel?

[inland oriole]

Yes.

A stroopwafel is a thin, round waffle cookie made from two layers of sweet baked dough held together by caramel filling.

[timber viper]

aw... I can't eat caramel 😦

oh, isnt that yoghurt

milky cheese?

[inland oriole]

Laura is Dutch confirmed.

Quark or quarg is a type of fresh dairy product made from milk. The milk is soured, usually by adding lactic acid bacteria cultures, and strained once the desired curdling is achieved. It can be classified as fresh acid-set cheese.

"Cheese" lol.

[timber viper]

usually by adding lactic acid bacteria cultures
so its made of bacterias?

[inland oriole]

Yes but no.

[timber viper]

why everything is complicated

[inland oriole]

😂

[slate drift]

Hmmm?

I mean it's an unreal community wiki link

I feel that's a sign, that auto-mod is doubting the reliability of unreal wiki

[chrome gull]

man this guy was supposed to give me $60 but he just stopped responding to me
i was planning to buy the newest CoD with that money
never owned CoD before 😭

[tulip orbit]

ooh, I want $60bux too

[unreal ether]

Don't worry you aren't missing much anymore

Cod has gone down the drain

[chrome gull]

no like i did $60 dollars worth of work for him

[chrome gull]

really?

[unreal ether]

It's just another money grabbing exercise.

The new modern warfare is extremely buggy, filled with microtransactions and incredibly unbalanced, and the Devs don't seem to care

DONE!!

[unreal ether]

Damn you lucky then. Everyone I've spoken too has said it.

In fact I haven't bought a cod game since cold war because of it.
The amount of microtransactions in that pissed me off royally

[carmine frigate]

hope they have too sell of oculus division 😛

id like too see it under new management

[soft night]

meta quest division?

they are too deep on metaverse push

the american companies who lay too heavily on startup fund

[carmine frigate]

their bad rep is just bad for VR as a whole

they should just stick to farmville or whatever they banked on

[slate drift]

Can you gift me UDN subscription on the way?

[proud jay]

can you gift me a house?'

[slate drift]

Here you got it: 🏠

[proud jay]

thanks bae

I had a quest before it was Meta

good times

[proud jay]

I think it was already owned by them though, just less "integrated"

[proud jay]

I think it was a legal issue

that you needed to be able to log in with the old account

[thin aspen]

Can confirm

At least not in multiplayer

Somewhere along the line I suspect there’s a missing audio file that’s causing my campaign to crash at a certain part every single time

Although I've come to realize that cold war is the exception to the rule that "buggy" == I suck at playing against people who use my playing style

[proud jay]

anyone here read Piranesi?

[chrome gull]

encountered a crash in the campaign

[thin aspen]

#lounge message

[thin aspen]

On the last level?

[chrome gull]

nope

[proud jay]

I suspect not on the last level since they just started playing :p

[chrome gull]

haha exactly

[chrome gull]

[thin aspen]

The one I’m dealing with is on the last level like right before the end. Maybe 5 minutes of game play left

[proud jay]

music in the background makes company meetings so much more bearable

especially when it's louder than the meeting

[tulip orbit]

a bit of Meshuggah to drown out the boss?

[fleet tangle]

My company meetings are usually pretty fun.

<o/

[proud jay]

it's a company wide meeting

so with like a few hundred people

it's just one dude presenting

[fleet tangle]

I think over half our company works on this 1 project, so it's almost company wide! 😄

[proud jay]

definitely

[fleet tangle]

If anyone started talking like that, I'd definitely fake an internet outage.

[proud jay]

we are doing cloud-native though

no synergy though

[proud jay]

how many people is it though

I think we're at ~1000 employees now

of which like 990 I don't interact with on a regular basis

[fleet tangle]

I don't even know. Considerably less than that!

[proud jay]

lmao, apparently there was a fire drill in our US office in the middle of the company meeting

[slim atlas]

@soft night

mind answering me a few question

what is your relationship to n7 day and masseffect?

Are you a fan of the series?

Have you played all 3 or all 4 games?

Have you read the comics and the books?

Are you excited for a new masseffect game?

[soft night]

i have being even said "commander shepard" in real life and some even asked "do you work for bioware"

I have played them all many times

[slim atlas]

nice!

So you are a big fan?

What excites you the most about the games?

[soft night]

the story but the most connected mass effect game is for me andromeda

[carmine frigate]

should bring ur quest next time for full immersion

[slim atlas]

so andromeda you like most?

[deep glen]

I am never alcohol as I never drink drunk

[fleet tangle]

Drunk on POWER?!

[soft night]

also alcohol actually when rarely i do dont even have effect as seems I burn it when itry to touch my mouth

[timber viper]

first time seeing Janisku writing this much

[soft night]

sometimes you must write

[timber viper]

you said like it's something you always hate to do 😂

Laughs in playing for hours in freeplay

[broken sigil]

I never actually did much freeplay
I do sometimes play workshop maps like the rings maps

👀

[inland oriole]

I just don't like the game much when playing against others, but I do love the mechanics xD

[broken sigil]

Yeah, there is a whole community of "freestyling" that focuses on hitting clips and mechanics instead of competitive play

Around 1k in GTA 5, around 1.5k in Apex... too much 😅

[carmine frigate]

what is a luffy?

are there 99 of em?

ahh its one piece? i never watched that

[timber viper]

cats these days has no manners

[carmine frigate]

I watched like 5 episodes of : Miss KUROITSU from the Monster Development Department

its super terible

but if you ever did product design ... the corporate stuff is hilarious

[timber viper]

i just got bitten after this video

[carmine frigate]

lol is that ur cat?

[timber viper]

yep

[carmine frigate]

cool, my cat is kinda huge... also it eats raw potato

[unreal ether]

dont you love it when you have to debug an issue and you have no idea where to start

[deep glen]

when I go to bed I always pet the two cats & doggo's, and often I cant find one of the cats, which means it hid behind the curtains in the bedroom and is now sleeping on my side of the bed.

[carmine frigate]

yea mine tries to sneak around aswell

[fathom wadi]

mine decays. It died like 20 years ago

[deep glen]

jfc

XD

[fathom wadi]

I cant have cats after that one. She was like my soulmate

[carmine frigate]

last one i had like 19 years.. pretty crazy

[timber viper]

I know how it feels because I lost my cat when I was a child

[thorny dock]

well this is officially it, RIP twitter. it was a perfect haven where all the developers hung out, you could easily only follow relevant game dev stuff. now it's all jacked up and im seeing all the garbage side and now everyone has a "parody" verified account. I was in a perfect bubble and it has officially popped

[fathom wadi]

Sorry but Twitter was a dumpster fire long before Elon took over

[carmine frigate]

went away for like 9 months and have some1 feed it in that time and everytime i thought it would be dead if i came back 😛

[timber viper]

twitter was pretty cool tbh... before Elon

[fathom wadi]

nah

[unreal ether]

It really was. Although now it seems like the dumpster fire has just had a tonne of nuclear waste dumped on it

[timber viper]

it was so easy to create networks and meet people

also easy to follow the news

[carmine frigate]

didnt they sell info of dissidents of some shitty king?

[timber viper]

and OSINT etc

[zinc matrix]

you just need to pay for high quality, high priority posts 🙂

[carmine frigate]

just handed over a kill-list

for like 200k$

[fathom wadi]

Twitter is a place where everyone can bully someone, but if you stick up for those people, then they turn and bully you instead. It's a cesspit of moral inequity filled with the collective individuals who decide to throw away all personality and become part of the crowd of high and mighty bullys. It's one of the worst places outside of a warzone.

[timber viper]

yeah definitely there was a problematic population

tbh I just followed the things I'm interested in and ignored the rest

it was a nice experience since like 2 years

[fathom wadi]

I absolutely enjoyed talking to celebrities, film stars, musicians and some of my game dev heroes, but it seemed to be like 5% of the experience

[carmine frigate]

well if you sell data of customers too some1 that will most likely kill them... thats really bad

[timber viper]

tbh discord is no different

somehow this server is just like unicorn

[fleet tangle]

A horny horse?

[timber viper]

:skelwe

i couldnt even write

see how laura bullies me

[carmine frigate]

I dont think many ppl believe Elon cares about free speech either 😛

so it was bad and now its still bad

[fathom wadi]

One time I was in a Twitter spat because people were calling a 24 old man, who married a 19 year old he met when she was 15 (they didn't do anything until legal age in Australia), a groomer. I said that he never did anything illegal, they obviously love each other and they got married. I said people are just jealous they are happy.
That saw the wrath of Twitter come down on me. One person who worked at Insomnia games called me a predator and posted to her followers that nobody should employ me.
Now I was in the right. But the only thing that remains is this person's bullying attempt to cancel me.

not to mention, this sent me into a spiral of depression and I lost a good 6 months work time

[fleet tangle]

Let's be fair, a 21 year old dating a 15 year old isn't great, even if they aren't "breaking the law".

[fathom wadi]

he wasn't dating her at 15

they just met

[fleet tangle]

You didn't specify when they started dating, so one just assumes the worst.

[fathom wadi]

they got together when she was 17, which is absolutely legal in Australia (and the UK for that matter) and everything was legit

[fleet tangle]

That's cool then.

[fathom wadi]

yeah thats what I thought. Not with the twitterati tho

[fleet tangle]

However, in the UK, it might not even be legal. Any contact pre-16 and then something happening after 16 can still be considered grooming. JSYK.

[fathom wadi]

thats only true with intent to convince someone to perform sexual acts. It's not a legal hardstop for anyone else though. I mean, You can meet someone without trying to abuse them into some unwarranted advances. But I guess you understand that. In this case everything was above board anyway. There was an associated article that went into detail about the pair and everything was so romantic and above board that I couldn't understand why people were calling him groomer, except that some of the people arguing for it were from the US where obviously everyone is a child until they are 21, or drafted into a war.

[fleet tangle]

I just mean from a legal standpoint, not a moral one. And the pre-16 stuff doesn't have to be anything sexual or whatever you want to call it. It can be any communication of any content.

You send one text message saying "hello" and you're now in the firing line for grooming according to uk law.

[fathom wadi]

I think its a bit more complex than that but I get what you mean. Especially as the UK has been trying to keep law up to date with the internet age in most cases.

[timber viper]

same here, for people below age of 18

[fleet tangle]

It's good that it's a broad scope, tbh.

[celest musk]

so if you say "hello" in a call of duty match you are already with one foot in the jail in the UK?

[fleet tangle]

If they can prove you had contact, correct.

[celest musk]

someone put a lot of thought in that law 😄

[timber viper]

probably only if you DM'd someone

rather than typing to chat of match session

otherwise it'd be very awkward 😄

[celest musk]

still, i bet half of my GTA Online "friends"/contacts are <18

[timber viper]

dont move to UK

[celest musk]

i'm probably already on a watchlist there then xD

[fleet tangle]

It's totally not a problem generally. Talk to whomever you like.

Just don't try to have sex with them.

[carmine frigate]

nah man.. grown man shouldnt play GTA with a bunch of 14 years

[fleet tangle]

Should just not play GTA then lol.

[carmine frigate]

mayB in a random team not regular basis

[celest musk]

i do heists with those people because i know they wont fuck it up

it's not like we would talk about anything other than the game

[timber viper]

if you exclude <18 people from GTA, rockstar stops being a rich company

[fleet tangle]

Indeed.

[celest musk]

not sure, those shark cards are expensive

i rather think that young adults buy them

when they have their first job

or people who work fulltime and don't have time for grinding

[fathom wadi]

I play with my 12 year old sons (not GTA but other games). Sometimes his friends are there. Im going to jail aren't I? 🙂

[carmine frigate]

i only really team with randoms or ppl i am friends with from school\

its not about jail

[fleet tangle]

Reminds me American Beauty

[carmine frigate]

but do you play with em when ur son aint playing?

[timber viper]

bruh, dont play games. develop games. #cpp awaits you

[celest musk]

playing games is part of developing games tho

[fathom wadi]

No I tend to work on games when im not playing them with my kids

[carmine frigate]

like the nephew of a friend sometimes joins but i didnt even add him to my friends cuz its weird if i would play with them when hes not on

[celest musk]

i admit, i ran around for probably half an hour in GTA just to check how well their foot IK performs in various places 😄

[timber viper]

thats actually one of their top secret tech i guess

it exists since before 2010

meanwhile industry caught up to it after 2017 or something

[fathom wadi]

hardly top secret. Trace, enact, profit :p

[carmine frigate]

I didnt play super nintendo with a bunch of 30years when i was that age either

internet doesnt change that... or shouldnt

[timber viper]

not like I know anything but in 2022 standards it is

they did it in GTA IV with ragdoll

and ran on ps3

[celest musk]

i'm kinda sure they do traces in 5

[fathom wadi]

I played games with adults a lot when I was young. Especially around the SNES age. That was the first time it was like having an actual arcade in your living room unless you shelled out a small fortune on a NeoGeo or a PCEngine

[celest musk]

the only place i played with "adults" was lan parties with mixed ages

but then, online gaming wasn't that big then

[fathom wadi]

I haven't been to a LAN party in so long now. I used to love it.

[celest musk]

i wasn't on many public ones, one was "educational" which was kinda cool

they had different talks/projects you could attend and in the other time you could just play games with others

[fathom wadi]

I remember once going to i-series and meeting up with a CS clan called Fightclub. They had a Dutch guy who was their best player and I was talking to him about weed. So I pulled a out a bong and got him really high. Next thing we find him asleep, under the desk, with his pc side casing off and his head inside his pc. Classic day out 🙂

[deep glen]

rofl

[carmine frigate]

think i was 16 when i played some clan stuff , but even that was with some friends i knew from school + some randos

no voice chat... its pretty hard to compare to games these days

[unreal ether]

less gooo, finally fixed my issue

[celest musk]

oh well, yea we had some adults in our clan, too....

[carmine frigate]

i didnt have internet B4 16 i believe

[celest musk]

good old times...

[carmine frigate]

anyways i know the parents of that nephew of the friend of mine and they asked why i never was online or something like that

and i said i dont add kids too my list and they said more ppl should do that 😛

[zinc matrix]

ive only played vampire survivors recently. what amuses me about that game is, that its written in javascript, it uses software renderer and it still runs better than all hardware accelerated unity clones 🙂

its pretty boring game though

[carmine frigate]

rising storm 2 free on epic atm is kinda fun if ur into vietnam shooters 🙂

voice chat in there gets pretty crazy sometimes

[celest musk]

CS:GO teached me that the first thing you disable in multiplayer games is voice chat

[carmine frigate]

only played a bit of CS go

[fleet tangle]

Vampire Survivors is fantastic!

[celest musk]

i still remember how a friend of me and i got our first network card, and plugged the cable to each of them, and it didn't work

until we eventually learned that we need T pieces and terminators

[hasty cargo]

it's funny to think there was a time where ethernet was the new stuff, but these were still an option used side by side

[celest musk]

apparently null modem cables are still sold 😄

[celest musk]

nope, but i still remember the launch of the first Unreal game

which was considered a milestone back then 😄

[celest musk]

Unreal had multiplayer?

i know unreal tournament had, but the normal game?

[quasi mantle]

Well, Unreal Gold does have multiplayer, but UT99 focused on multiplayer a lot more

[thorny dock]

i too used to wait upwards of 15 minutes for a server to download something, just to leave the server within 2 minutes lol

everything is changing, now even letmegooglethatforyou.com doesn't actually google things, it uses "the google at home" search engine called gprivate, they literally made the link google.gprivate

[lean anvil]

Age old question

Is UE5 stable enough to dev on yet?

[celest musk]

depends ™️

[lean anvil]

Yep, sounds about rifht

[tulip orbit]

I'm using it for my current project. It does get a bit crashier than usual some days. Some of the ue5 features need work, but overall it seems pretty good. I'm still verrrrryyy early in development, and not a skilled/experienced dev tho

[unborn lotus]

Doesn't matter if I just start a new project in a few weeks anyway 🧠

[celest musk]

for me as linux user it's way more stable than 4.27 but that's probably just because vulkan got more love

so yea, it crashs by times, but not on an hourly basis (unless i'm really unlucky to hit a weak spot)

[carmine frigate]

UE5 is for making netflix movies

[tulip orbit]

Wtf. Everything is greyed out for some reason

Wiiierd. Got it back but strange

[tulip orbit]

It was just UE5 being UE5

[slim atlas]

there have been so many people

fiddling around with uassets

trying to import

they are all criminals

thieving criminals

[deep glen]

unless they got it trough itch.io or other non-ue marketplaces, quite the odds yea.

its why I always ask how they acquired em

[slim atlas]

there is a way yes

but the specific encryption system build into unreal makes it hard

but interchange between the same project is ok

well

imagine you want to do outlines in your project

but you dont want to make the material from scratch

uassets can act like snippets

you put them into the content folder directly

and then just start the project

it will then override it and integrate it

i dont know why that works...

or how

but probably because of higher engine versions

i dont know if new assets can do this too

and no i am not speaking about packaged assets

it wont import it

it will integrate it

i did this countless times in the old days

As anyone heard of the word "grok" before?

[proud jay]

not me

[calm dove]

So I get 10 mb/s download speed and my friend gets 100 mb/s download.. And he doesn't understand how I am able to play games with 50 ping..

I honestly don't know how to explain it cause I don't really understand it either.. I know they send packets of information to and from the servers.. But, I don't know if the internet speed matters in this instance... Can anyone elaborate on how it works??

I did google somewhat info on this related topic and the first thing i saw is most games don't use more then 3 mb/s internet speed.. But, idk how much of that is true or what not..

[carmine frigate]

he sucks at games

[calm dove]

So do games not use the full use of your bandwidth??

[proud jay]

a game taking up your full bandwidth would be wild

and I doubt many people would play it

[calm dove]

So faster speeds doesn't necessarily dictate if you gather the information quicker or not? Assuming oyu are above the 3mb/s that the google said its required to use for gaming..

[carmine frigate]

stadia has entered the chat..... stadia also left the chat

[proud jay]

that's streaming though

was*

[carmine frigate]

well its gaming on full band

[quasi mantle]

There was urban legend that Doom clogged up bandwidth in a campus or an office

[proud jay]

are you gaming though, or just watching an interactive video

what's the difference

[carmine frigate]

upstream low downstream high

both play game... its game

some ppl thought it was the next big thing in gaming... it wasnt

it sucked like nft rpgs

and metaverses

[proud jay]

I had a friend that actually liked stadia

[quasi mantle]

My condolences.

[proud jay]

tbh if they had a more extensive list of games that were free with stadia, like a "netflix" for games I think it would be more successful

but now you had to pay stadia and buy games

[calm dove]

Who is Stadia or what is Stadia? Inform me

[proud jay]

so just moving the console cost to a subscription

google stadia

[proud jay]

both the name and the action you can undertake to find out more about it

[calm dove]

So, they basically stream the game service for you and you play it through like a live feed or some shit like that..??

Right?? Wrong??

[carmine frigate]

no they dont... its dead

[calm dove]

Dead service? or you talking to someone else?

[carmine frigate]

stadia dead

gone

[calm dove]

I didn't even know about it, haha.

[carmine frigate]

glad too educate you on non existing tech

[calm dove]

LOL, waste of ram space in my brain

[quasi mantle]

And then Stadia fanboys tried to blame Xbox Game Pass / xCloud, since it's the most Stadia compared against

[carmine frigate]

just in case at some point you think its a good idea to have ppl controll your pc and just stream the video too the user... so they dont need good hardware

[quasi mantle]

If it weren't for Stadia charging games full price on top of the subscription fee (on top of internet connection bills), on top of more exclusives , Stadia might have a chance to go on.

Google (execs) doesn't seem to try

[carmine frigate]

they should have used autopilot cars and drive the pc too users houses

cuz less input delay

stadia 2.0

[proud jay]

is that mars

or bad quality moon

[rare sparrow]

Lunar eclipse taken on a phone

[carmine frigate]

[rare sparrow]

No, Pixel 5a

[slate drift]

Ok believe it or not, last night I dreamt that Josai came back to the server

But I just realized that it was a dream

[slim atlas]

who is Josai

[slate drift]

An ex #cpp regular

[proud jay]

he's ex now?

[slate drift]

Dieter pls 💊

[proud jay]

was he banned?

or just left?

[slate drift]

Just left

[proud jay]

sad

[slate drift]

Prolly striked before he left, but yeah it's sad

He appreciated my work on my last article and even suggested it once in #cpp

[slim atlas]

@slate drift do you want me to appreciate you?

D:

i could do that if you need it

[slate drift]

You can, but I would prefer if you appreciated my work instead

[proud jay]

talking about appreciation

[slate drift]

You can start by clicking my face and going to that twitter link

[proud jay]

what happend to affectionateUser

[slate drift]

That name clicks in my head

Who are they?

[proud jay]

they were the ones hugging everyone all the time

[slate drift]

Lol

So they prolly hugged me without me knowing their name

Sad

[slim atlas]

what is your work

[slate drift]

#multiplayer focused articles

You can also consider learning #multiplayer , considering the lack of activity in that channel

shoo go back to your #cpp chamber

[quasi mantle]

He's taking day off it seems. His account is still there
