Oh, well bubble tea =/= milk tea. Completely seperate things.
It's a drink from Taiwan. Much, much sweeter and more like a treat.
And whoever titled this is a fool then if they are talking about bubble tea, not milk tea.
Not completely separate. Bubble tea is a type of milk tea.
from windows copilot lol
Indian chai: This is a spiced milk tea that is very popular in India and other parts of South Asia. You will need black tea (such as Darjeeling or Assam), water, milk (preferably whole or 2%), sugar or honey, and spices (such as cardamom, ginger, cinnamon, cloves, and black pepper). To make Indian chai, first crush the spices lightly with a mortar and pestle or a rolling pin. Then bring the water to a boil in a saucepan and add the tea and spices. Simmer for about 10 minutes, then add the milk and sugar and bring to a boil again. Strain the chai into cups and enjoy3
Taiwanese bubble tea: This is a popular iced milk tea drink that originated in Taiwan. You will need black tea (such as Assam or Ceylon), boiling water, tapioca pearls (also known as boba), sweetened condensed milk, and ice. To make Taiwanese bubble tea, first cook the tapioca pearls according to the package instructions. Then brew the tea in boiling water for about 5 minutes, and let it cool slightly. Add the sweetened condensed milk and stir well. Fill a glass with ice and pour the tea over it. Add the cooked tapioca pearls and enjoy with a wide straw2
British milk tea: This is the classic way of making tea with milk in the UK. You will need black tea (such as English breakfast or Earl Grey), boiling water, milk (preferably whole or 2%), and sugar or honey to taste. To make British milk tea, simply steep the tea in boiling water for 3 to 5 minutes, depending on how strong you like it. Then add milk and sweetener to your liking. You can also use a teapot and a strainer for a more traditional experience1
Chai is so good with milk. One of my favorites.
A good chai latte is my favorite hot beverage for cold weather.
bubble tea looks really good but never tried it
I enjoy bubble tea, but it's not something to have often.
Think of it as a dessert.
Thai tea is amazing, too.
A few years ago I got some tea from Turkey, it had some weird chocolate flakes in it
It was quite good but when it hit me lol
I fell asleep on my pc ๐
Yeah, but they titled it milk tea, not bubble tea. If I make an article talking about rectangles, that doesn't mean it's talking specifically about squares.
I think we're on the same page now, I'm just saying they should have called it bubble tea if they are talking specifically about bubble tea ๐
I agree the headline is misleading. It's like writing an article about ginger beer addiction with the headline "Rising addiction to soda linked to depression".
That's what titles are for. To grab attention.
I think you're onto something
It's like that study they did that found any title that asks a possibility outrageous question, the answer is invariably no.
What would you consider the difference tho pfist? Or does milk tea in this context refer to the same milk tea in the article (bubble tea)?
Saying "bubble tea" wouldn't have grabbed any less attention. I think they can get away with the headline because most young people hear "milk tea" and think of bubble tea.
Milk tea is surely tea made with milk and not water?
Smh foolish young people
That's what I thought when I first heard it
But afaik, it's just milk added to tea.
Bubble tea has the bubble stuff I it. Whatever they are.
Nope. Milk tea is tea with milk added after the fact, although you certainly could make it with milk only.
Boba.
That's the one.
Surprisingly delicious tapioca pearls.
When made well.
I've had some bad bubble tea.
I have never seen nor drank boba tea
on the topic of tea, just out of curiousity, does manny have the power to ping everyone?
I had some that had red bean paste in it.
It was horrible.
I like red bean paste, but in bubble tea? Surely an acquired taste.
The texture was the most off putting.
Smooth liquid, smooth boba, then rough pasty bean ๐คข
Well it actually gets confusing. My favorite flavor of bubble tea is called "oolong milk tea".
Of course, it would still be oolong milk tea without the boba, if you ask me. So it is just a matter of context.
Why can't people just use the correct words 
Well, good luck telling people it's incorrect.
Especially when every recipe says "oolong milk tea".
Oolong tastes so unique with milk. It is really something special if you're a tea lover like me.
i am a fan of oolong milk tea (non-boba)
Bubble tea happens to be very popular right now. I think that's what is responsible for the conflation.
It is so delicious!
Have you ever had matte tea? Pretty famous in Brazil.
I think I tried that famous brand once, Yerba Matte.
The canned stuff? I am not a fan of that at all lol
I don't remember what it was like.
Yeah. That is the extent of my exposure to matte.
It tastes so different from regular matte imo
If you like that roasted/toasty flavor, I highly recommend trying actual matte
^That's the brand I get. Recommended to me by a friend in Brazil.
Thanks for the recommendation. I will be sure to try it someday.
I drink a lot of tea.
That Yerba Matte lacks so much of that roasted flavor imo.
Unreal Tea House when? 
lol
We should have an Unreal Source tea lovers meetup someday.
Or a tea-themed game jam.

I love this. Lofi Girl launched a Halloween-theme stream for October.

i have $40 (plus tax) of steam cash and a gelded computer with meh 2019 tech in it. 4core 2ghz cpu thats constantly sitting at 50% resource usage (dont ask) i like games like fallout 4, minecraft, space engineers and GTAV, any suggestions?
i enjoy being a murder hobo who can run/drive/fly my way around a map killing everyone when i wanna releave stress
TIL you guys like tea and tea accessories
nah i like apple juice and crush orange
I have a real matcha set.
mixed
i jave a proper japanese tea kettle set and have used it a few times, mostly because its perfectly made for use on a wood stove
Very nice.
I don't have a nice kettle, but I have a matcha set โ a chasen (whisk), chashaku (scoop), and chawan (ceramic bowl).
I use an electric kettle for my tea water.
I'd love to get one of those heavy iron kettles.
best way
ceremic is better, gives a more even boil
yeah looks nice, and great deal, just doesnt seem to be my style
cant tell if thats good or bad
For a game with dozens of hours of story, probably bad lol
witcher 3 is worth it even if you only play like a few hours imo
I never got really far into it
but I still liked it
I wanna get back to it again some day
im still looking for something to murder hobo in with minimal story
i enjoy GTAV, but it does get a little boring after 870 hours especially when online is so grindy and hides the good cars and guns
gtav got boring after 20 hours ๐
We do love a bit of automated murder.
A 4core 2ghz cpu isn't meh 2019 tech. That's meh 2010 tech.
not really into the production line games, i like holding a gun and going on rampage to kill people in a game as a safe anger outlet
its a laptop ryzen 2500U
it is a laptop and wasnt built with gaming in mind, it was built to be a good solid white collar job laptop
If you like auto-attackers, God of Weapons is pretty fun. Or Soulstone Survivors.
Backpack Hero is a weird game, but enjoyable.
fan of GTAV and fallout 4
i enjoy fallout 4 but the company required monitoring programs (long story dont ask) make the key inputs "sticky" so i run off buildings and cant react as fast
no, my company has federal contracts and because of the nature of them were required to have watchdog programs on even our personal stuff
when you do stuff that relates to national security you have only 2 real options, keep the job and do it their way, or leave the job and get branded as unwilling to follow security requirements and never get another secure job like it again
i was on disability, ands still am on it, (work from home) but finally got a job that works with it
took only 2 years to get one
lost the monthly cash, kept the medical benefits
which when your monthly pills alone are like $120 alone its helpful to have medical that reduces that to like $20
fyi @worldly sapphire after fighting ||balthazar|| 7 times I gave up, feared him, he ran to the edge and I yeeted him off
no loot, but at least it's progress
hey there, is anybody a moderator?
I would like to put my portfolio on the hire-a-freelancer board, but I'm having some trouble
I put my portfolio once before, like maybe a bit more than a year ago. I must have forgotten to remove it, and now I can't seem to find my year old message on the board to do so
you can do ctrl f and search from:@Liam Viladiu Leech
idk if removing it will help though
yeah, cause it looks like you can't have your portfolio on there twice
thanks! that actually worked haha
yeah, let me know when I can vote for you
you can, blue man is living proof
2.500h wtf
I think I've only broken 1k for 3 games. Nothing beyond 1.5k.
lol
eh and thats steam, minecraft and pre steam games is far far more
jesus
?
that was a joke if that wasn't clear
if it wasn't clear then... maybe there was some truth in it?
~~yeah, who actually likes C++
~~

smh
write the docs for us and we'll gift you the ability to also test the software for us too
Epic need a system like that, they'd get some docs! ๐
I was like... wait... did I say something and I don't remember ๐
Yep, that's how I cheesed it too
I mean, the "normal" way is just impossible
even stacked all of them on top of eachother to pretty much kill 80% of minions with 1 fireball
but still shit
skill. issue.
I don't think that's healthy
everybody does it
I loved the ketheric fight
Balthazar was a pain but I managed not to yeet him:-)
worst fight for me is shadow hearts army battle at the end of her story quest
still haven't managed it, I gave up
and yes, radiant damage blah blah
still fucking hard

"encumbrance
-something that encumbers"
thanks webster
it's when character be slow cause too much pots and pans and silverware in bag
BG3 send to camp is so refreshing
finally let's me klepto absolutely everything and give zero shits about what it's worth
except for the bags not being nameable
missed opportunity there
so when you carry alot and gaem has a weight limit?
You have like 6 inventory spaces and you constantly want 20 items in your inventory /s
Add 9 different types of elemental damage that you can do, and that enemies can do, and make enemies massively resistant to the various damage types. Also make it next to impossible for you to go from a lightning build to a fire build to beat the one boss that is immune to lightning
I've -never- seen it be done well
What the hell is modeling mode?
why does lumen sound like a different variant of ramen
Well, I'll be...
which game are you referring too? i thought it was pokemon for a sec
Oh ok, thanks lol.
Are you enjoying the update? I think they added one
Seems like google is altering search queries to sell more stuff to people.
At this point I just go through life believing everything wants my money and/or information so it doesn't surprise me. 
I didn't know this was news. I thought everyone was aware, given the whole "use a VPN or block trackers and you get different results"
this isn't tailoring results to fit a searcher's history, this is tailoring results to advertised products without specifying that they're "sponsored", to either the searcher or the advertiser
Oh so this is companies paying money to shadow advertise? Yeah that's a bit naughty
Bigger, smarter advertisers may be exploiting it (they may have even asked for it), but small businesses wouldn't know, and it would end with them paying more to google.
sheesh at 7PM??!?
it was a rough dream
everyone is in the same timezone as me, its a fact
7pm was the time i woke up a few days ago
i like this American mindset
i only get vivid dreams when i have an excess of sleep
8 hrs and under i have nothing
i know someone who attempted to register to a hotel with his driver license from US at Europe
waking up after 4hrs and sleeping back causes vivid dreams to me too
hmm wouldnt you use your passport i guess
fwiw hotels in the us you dont generally check in with your ID
If it's enough of a tourist trap it might work.
you put your credit card down
might need to show ID in some cases but
at least i dont remember having to do that often
then again maybe thats bullshit and i always do i dunno
04.56
why so early ๐
i lost my consciousness while talking on discord and woke up to realize i fell asleep
same happened yesterday too
you were having a lot of fun yesterday

when talking about that ts node generator with rezonant
something about "a good time to get offtopic"

dont let BM know though
ah you are 1 hour ahead of me
but you actually have a normal sleep schedule ๐
i dont
i sleep 1 hr late each day
today i will sleep after 21.00
and its out of my control
that's still normal 
yeah going to bed at 20 for me is.... im going to end up awake in a sweat at 2am. if i nap during the day, ill get a full 8 hours and wake up at 6pm
one week later i will revert to bad schedule
it just doesnt work
You wanna see my sleep shcedule lol
I avoid naps at all cost, wake up with a massive headache every single time
that sucks
apparently the amount of time folks actually need to sleep varies a lot
when i heard about this, a lot of stuff started making sense
i think i need 6 hours
but i can do 4 (just not sustained)
wow
i really love the solitude of night
yeah for me 7 feels optimal, but I've recently been barely getting 6
i dont avoid nap, i lay to bed and open my eyes FMath::RandRange(1,12); hours later
its out of my control
at august it was so funny
i wasnt sleepy and my nap took 12.5 hours
still better than being gauranteed to wake up in the middle of the night in a sweat going "wtf just happened"
i wonder how much sleep debt i had
pretty sure it hints about some medical condition
whether psychological or body function
I've always had super vivid dreams even when I don't sleep enough
And now when I got a watch that tracks all of that I see that my REM stage is quite a bit longer than what is average for people
perhaps permanent sleep depravation
eventually ill die
oh thats interesting-- i always thought it was basically exactly 90m
(per cycle)
whats the 1hr 23m indicating
REM duration, total
Is REM mostly the dreaming time?
it's apparently 90 minutes in total, I think
erm
ill include this first sentence because i think this is "dreams" but i love calling it hallucinations:
The absence of visual and auditory stimulation (sensory deprivation) during REM sleep can cause hallucinations.[4][failed verification] REM and non-REM sleep alternate within one sleep cycle, which lasts about 90 minutes in adult humans.
yeah that's when you are actually dreaming
oh the whole cycle is 90m
ahhh
As sleep cycles continue, they shift towards a higher proportion of REM sleep. The transition to REM sleep brings marked physical changes, beginning with electrical bursts called "ponto-geniculo-occipital waves" (PGO waves) originating in the brain stem. REM sleep occurs 4 times in a 7 hour sleep.
it's quite interesting to see that data of your sleep displayed
it feels pretty accurate, if I wake up during the night it captures that perfectly as well
to be clear, 90m is each cycle. It just so happens that 7-8 hours is also about 90m total of REM sleep across the approximately 4-5 cycles that fit in that time space
yeah
so maybe it takes awhile before a rem cycle is long enough for me to make memories for it
Does more REM time mean you were likely getting tired?
as only in long sleep do I notice dreaming at all
I just know more deep sleep time means better.
If you woke up during REM, you probably will remember the dream clearly right after awaking. You need to write it down quickly to stop it getting away.
yeah sure maybe
but a lot of people do a normal 7-8 hours and perceive dreaming
I dont
waking up during REM is unhealthy
you also will feel unrested
even if you sleep 15 hours
But you know, alarm clocks...
your body should adapt
if you keep sleeping at same hour
it will even start waking you up casually without clock
That's true. Unless I was extrememly tired or sick
Any bluesky users here who could spare an invite? : >
was watching jujutsu kaisen and i realized most of anime despite having very cool character concept, they have terrible writing and character development
all i know about that anime is gojou satoru is women's makima
anime profile pic
"all i know about anime is this one specific thing"
Sus
Oh wait, you said that anime
Another case of "rain can't fucking read"
I don't even know what a makima is
Its a way to detect degenerete people like me
Mostly males
"All we need to do here is redo the topology here" and then the video speeds up!
Keep up then smh
Tldr a female character who is into dogs too much, she has 7 dogs
She offers Denji (main character) a good life
I regret waking up
Is this Chainsawman?
I mean she really has 7 dogs
Why this is weird
I didnt even start about degenerete part
Yes
That had to be the most inconsistent show I've ever seen
Oh, okay I thought the likes the dogs "too much" part was the degen part
In a sense of loving dogs too much
POPPY
In manga and anime makima is a very evil character, you would hate her but for.. interesting reasons she has a huge fanbase
Not to mention about fanarts
There was just that one bit in the middle that was crazy good, and the rest of the show was so meh
I like how desperate Denji is, and other characters are well executed
So I enjoyed
Makima trying to exploit Denji, denji being a dumb character who does everything to get a bit attention etc. It was funny to watch
I am more into code geass and rezero though
Man, the most scarring anime ive ever watched was darling in the franxx and it wasn't even of my own volition
Its on my watchlist
I have questionable taste in frens
I almost watched it because someone said it was NGE 2
Ofcourse it is@_@
But it just looked like "ooo, here's butt"
Idk anything about it
Literally nothing
Other than the red girl likes to say Darling a lot
Its not, its just mechs powered by butt ||sex||
There are big enemies, there are big mechs, the mechs need two pilots and the better the pilots are in butt ||sex||, the better the mech fights
So its not a plot about mc and Franxx love each other?
The robots are called darlings iirc, there is a male "main" pilot and a female secondary pilot. The anime is about the mc(main pilot) and his secondary pilot
Its
.... Bad
So bad
Ofcourse you will.....
yeah, bad writing with no other purpose than showing anime girls
i probably gonna watch that too
anime!
All of you are Ellen de'generates e_e
Just want NGE if you want an actually good mech anime
Mobile suit Zeta Gundam is good too
Yeah, it is after all one of the most critically acclaimed anime of all time
the writing, character purpose and character emotional state is so random
didn't make any sense for me
Its not random at all lol
i really want to bebait you to death right here but i forgot the content of that anime
imma need to rewatch
Short version of the character's personalities are that they are depressed pessimistic nihilists
Common elongated muskrat syndrome symptoms
i'll head back to Lyra thank you for this wonderful conversation
I'm not going to say you should watch it, but I absolutely loved Darling in the Franxx. One of my absolute favorites.
That doesn't mean you'll like it tho, because I also enjoyed Love Live :p
Darling in the Franxx is average, not that bad, till those last episodes and the ending is just absolutely weird with alien things
should have keep everything a myth like our very own real universe
wait didn't that whole conversation in cpp where two very experienced devs couldn't agree on what the point of Lyra even was dissuade you
or was that not you
they did have a conversation
but at that conversation i was in a bad mood because i have one problem with GAS in lyra, which i thought is because lyra terrible layers of abstraction
but turn out that specific problem of me is just because i misunderstood unreal engine and blame it on lyra
me and lyra cool now
oh alright, I'm sure you wont hate Lyra again in an hour or so
Laura vs Lyra, who wins?
Lyra sounded like a beautiful girl
a beautifully over engineered girl
i always pronounced it as "Liey-ra"
some people say lee-ra
i dont know which one is correct
lol
๐ณ
fun fact, thats a swear word in hindi
no
we are scam central after all
Lyra Belacqua?
there's a woman standing in the street just staring at cows
she's been there for like 15 min already
fuck
forgot to put out the trash yesterday ๐
I'd join her
oh she just started moving again
she's running now
she was probably dying and taking a rest
or she was wondering what goes well with beef and then decided to hurry up and get some fries
Wait you have cows in the city?
If its degenerate enough I'll watch it dw
There's a ton of good new shows this season.
You just don't know the ways of heart wrenching anime!
do you guys sometimes take some cookies, but then you eat them all in 2 min
i like chainsaw man (not because of waifu)
but i feel it's one of those rare show that the characters actually have development and and writing was decent
more like PP wrenching but okay
And where's the devil devil?
If that's what you get out of anime, that's on you, my friend.
says the guy watching the mech powered by naughty stuff show
I saw the first series. Is there a second yet?
how is it underrated
people are praising it
arcane is correctly rated
damn, this is so underrated
Hasn't it been out for like 4 years now or something?
november 2021
overrated if anything
Probably correctly rated for LoL players.
I don't think that's from silicon valley?
this show look fun
or maybe a season I haven't seen
why is the first gif for league of legends homoerotic
it's from This is the End apparently
I liked Silicon Valley though
lol i just checked, that was funny
did not watch all seasons though
i never got invested in LoL lore for some reason
congrats
watched arcane, played LoL, even wild rift
join the other approx 8 billion people
but didnt click for some reason
i have 5000 hours in LoL and i didnt even read a single line
Is that because you can't read?
damn imma be a game developer in the future
that would be me, yes
have to write those cringe lore myself
I didn't make it past episode 1.
damn, not even Ruined King? fake fan
I was more of a dota person back in the day.
im not a fan to begin with lol
I though you were already giving up entire life to develop games
i was neither. was busy getting my ass kicked in CnC online matches and starcraft 2
command or conquer?
more like an unreal enginer now
what's the difference
one is doing all the fancy front end, game design, marketing, life is rainbow stuff
one is merge your soul with darkness
one is useless, one makes you a dark lord
:question: did dieter forge the one ring?
:8ball: Better not tell you now.
I don't trust people that like marketing
i do like marketing actually
:question: does dieter trust viktor?
:8ball: You may rely on it.
it's fun to manipulate people's mind
it's all bs
ngl average person is kinda dumb af
how is it leaking?
they just release some gameplay
yeah same thing the point is they only did a video
with some fresh graphics...you don't have to do anything for it to go viral
i mean it is about the quality of the product, but if you are solo dev who make both the product and know the market well, you can tweak your product so that it would appear very good on a a trailer
will we even get s2
ok bye the good people of Unreal Source, my mother Lyra calling me again
tbh, franxx is not an ||ecchi|| right? if not it shouldnt be beyond mecha ||butt|| display trope that exists on every anime from code geass to evangelion
That wasn't even a trailer so
if you are 13+ it shouldnt be that naughty
13 years or centuries?
~~Laura could watch either way ~~
13 star years, ditere
what is a star year
i dont know, just made it up
How can they not?!
I wouldn't say so. It's far more of a psychological/romance anime.
I have no idea what an ||ecchi|| is
what you're complaining basically
subtle naughty display of characters and plot
but not enough to call it NFSW
also see: fanservice
elon musk streaming game, so fking awkward haha
https://x.com/elonmusk/status/1709051737279971632?s=20
funniest stuff i seen today
Okay by that definition its almost an ||ecchi||
such quality
Common elongated muskrat activities
If it were continual, sure, like that Temple show recently (which was actually pretty funny).
But it's not.
Would you call Game of Thrones an ecchi because there's the occasional naked body?
wtf is an ecchi
tbh the platform of "anime" makes it more awkward/weird compared to a realistic show or a movie xD
yes, 90% of the anime characters are below 18
thanks to Ponkkis' AI model
ecchi is like redo of healer if you watch that
well, that's not the platform of anime making it weird then
you can make an anime with adults
anime characters being cute and underage is the platform, its called "moe culture"
Sexual situations, puns and boobs everywhere.
I thought it was called pedophilia
GoT uses ||sex|| as a valid manipulation technique and plays as a plot device in many of the story arcs, and it was clear by the TV adaptations that ||female nudity|| was much more prolific compared to male than the books portrayed. So by the definition eren put before me, yes i would call Got TV adaptation an ||ecchi||
No that would be when they are sexualised, which I'm not going to say doesn't happen, but it's shitty.
Run while you still can
Like No Game No Life was a really good show which was ruined it :/
legendary video
rip removed
oh is back
see, this is why no one likes weebs
some of them just take it too far
i mean, you can just watch it for fun like me and call it a day
but that wont change anime community is toxic af
Not enough laughter emojis for that one.
but also wont make me responsible or part of that creepiness
otaku pandering in anime is something else these days
Don't conflate otakus with lolicons, though.
Voluntary viewership of problematic content while enjoying it(having a laugh) is silent endorsement though
same in my book, someone demanding/buying that stuff
I'm not saying you can't, just saying that groups get most often associated with the extreme outliers since that is what get most of the attention cause it's weird
need a new word for people that worship AI girls in the future
I dont enjoy creepy things, but seeing a bit ||ecchi|| doesnt make me freak and stop the show either
Didn't call you a freak to begin with lol
Well, ai literally means love in japanese... so you're almost there already.
no I didnt mean you did and wasnt re: to frannx either
were already in that storyline
lol I used replika at 2017 when going to high school, it wasnt a NFSW bot back at the day
Yeah this was brutal. Corporate greed is sickening
im the kind of guy would only fell in love with my own AIs not the other people's AIs
Back then it was still being marketed as a mental health app
it's not narcissistic, it's deep learning
it was able to interpret the images I sent and I was quite amazed by it, was sending my classroom and it was replying about how much people there are etc
The whole replika saga is a masterclass on how to be a shit bag corporation
Its like a step by step manual
๐
raindust was that you
why you sound so personal
I have never heard of replika
I don't have to suffer first hand to have empathy for others who were in the end manipulated to finance a corporation. I know it's an alien concept for those with elongated muskrat syndrome, maybe you can understand it when you reach mars
relax i was just joking
""electronic role play" or ERP for short,"
Lol someone said this on reddit. ahh the innoncence
but why take "manipulated to finance a corporation" so serius?
game developer scam people all the time
Are you sure I can relax? Tesla manufacturing centers are currently behind schedule, wouldn't want our musken overlord to lose a couple million in profits would i?
Lmao, ah the innocence of youth xD
that's very weird of you when you keep using elon musk to attack me
im not even crazy fan of this guy i wouldn't feel any offend
There is no attack, just acknowledgement of the Musketeer's superior intellect and economic acumen
what antiviruses do you guys use
not again
Kek
scroll to yesterday we have a conversation about antivirus
I must have missed it, bet it was super short
and I thought we were doing enterprise resource planning
I wish there were some good star trek games to play. Resurgence was good but it wasn't really the kind of game id play
just play even online
the company of star trek actually contacted us back in the day
but all their ideas were really shit tbh
they wanted some shitty mobile game
You mean eve online? That game is spreadsheet simulator
Ofcourse they did.....
by eve online, I indeed meant eve online, I know, very strange
Man there was this shitty star trek mobile game that was being hyped up a lot, about 7-8 years ago. I downloaded it but everything written in that game was complete gibberish
You wrote even online though, not eve
But yeah eve online is very boring to actually play. Its fun to read about but miserable to actually play
ah I am in fact retarded
never played it myself
just knew a professor of economics that used it for economic simulations
are mmorpgs economies the best usage for econimcs degree?
Eve online is completely player driven
So it is infact one of the best and most comprehensive datasets of an emerging economy that we have
Eve online is completely awful
There have been actual peer reviewed papers published that used data sets from eve online
And the fact that there's 25+ years of consistent data is just icing on the cake
AFAIK eve online is unique in this regard, no other mmos have had this happen for them
To play, yes. To read about, hell no xD
I wonder if that works ๐
nice
this was something i was wanting to achieve
though I wonder if it cause a load of all materials
would be better to selectively compile before map loading
or able to unload if its unused
otherwise would break your game
DF would mock you for using 64gb ram on loading screen
I thought the reason for shader shutter is because you'd have to wait like 20 minutes to play game the first time you boot it
I hate the whole shader compilation thing. I bought call of duty cold war and couldnt play it for like 45 minutes while they compiled
Then it hung and I had to restart ๐ญ
iirc battlefield 2 also precompiled shaders and it took a long while
Older CoDs like Infinite Warfare dont even use all core to compile shaders
That must be the legacy
is it?
pretty sure anytime I spawn a particle it compiles shaders first
and not upfront
its not
it was a related thing
but based on ur info it should have been resolved
i didnt use any major engine versions after early 5.1 since I was on bp2cpp lol
they dont know
Go skydiving
I still have to pretend that I'm working
Hm. Copious amounts of coffee?
that doesn't sound healthy
do you guys use notebooks?
if so, what do you put inside it?
or girls
I see Laura typing...
you can try
not tempted to
you can pet them, once usually
well if you pet them it could be for the rest of your life

why would you think that lol
people have shot bears you know
I mean it's not as fluffly as you think
it's not steel though
like a
like a implies similar qualities
always ask for consent first
you should cancel her on twitter
she should have ask your pronouns first
twitter is still used in the forest
one more hour until next useless meeting
americans are so good at naming things https://maps.app.goo.gl/29eDFnuDCikLdSVa9
it has been a while since we've seen horse seeman
Me: So I set up the basics of this project organised in a specific way. I add the Mannequin skeletons and moved them to this specific folder and renamed them to avoid confusion, but use these when you're working with animations
My colleague: Oh, I couldn't find them so I just added the Third Person starter content to the project and used those assets
Arghhhh
why did I just agree to a job interview screening on my birthday lol
maybe I should ask to move it ๐ค
get your birthday declared as a national holiday so the company will be closed for the day
a day ending on y
well I already have a holiday
she asked me like what drove me to this application
but she sent it to me lol
the only reason I ever responded was cause I accidentally picked up the 4th time she called me
and now I'm stuck here
goddamn recruiters
this is all @timber viper 's fault
what did I do now?
Did they sign you up to a recruiter's website?
Like the very benign version of signing someone's e-mail up to questionaable sites
hmm true
signing up for recruiters is not benign
me and my homies hate recruiters
Do you they really call you?
I get the occasional mail for jobs that I'm totally not qualified for
But calls?
oh yea
clearly you're not a programmer
if no recruiter has tried to call me in 3 weeks, something fishy is going on
now I'm gonna have to update my stupid cv as well
I don't have one ๐ญ
why the hell they want me to fill out a whole ass google doc about motivation and that shit
already in a mood to tell them to fuck off
why do they call me, and then I have to "defend" myself
i dont get whats happening
tl;dr they are unamused by you and they're trying to make you speak about it?
no
they contact me to ask if I'm interested
and now they want me to fill out a doc about why I think I fit the job and all that crap
lol
Oh no, I don't profile myself as a programmer, thank god
I'm guessing recruiters are desperate to hit some kind of metric
@sand oxide virustotal only finds w32.aidetectmalware . False positive? ๐
which brand
Man, I haven't seen this much talk about viruses since March 2020
Bkav
Sorry. I'd have kept quiet and continued lurking like I usually do if the playtester hadn't told me his av flagged my game and sent me into a panic spiral. Lol
if there isnt any FUD cryptor involved it looks like false positive but I dont know, dont trust me
but its your own exe
so why would it be involved
Yea web root. Full scan. 15 hours on both PCs. Found nothing. I ended up not having the mhyprot2 from Genshin alsom
removing it wouldnt save you anyway after this point
if it was the source
you already gave access to hacker
local privelege escelation means you're doomed until its completely gone somehow
and it spreads like cancer
good thing an AV could report this to you even if it wouldnt detect it as virus
turns out there are also military-grade rootkits that only some specific brands or even specialized companies companies can remove but why would you be a target for this unless you're working for NSA or something
What even is this?
something even a weeb wouldnt post
This just makes me think Unreal is having a weird false positive thing even more now. Lol
food
Looks like a butt farting to me.
@fleet tangle thoughts on mieruko-chan?
Looks like a microfiber pillow with an air hose attached where you can't see it.
Which one is that?
Oh. I think I saw that. 1 moment, let me refresh.
I gave it an 8/10
It's a traditional bread or something
So above average!
If it's only getting detected only by 1 AV and fine with everything else it's more than likely a false positive
It's been a while since I watched it.
It's not that unusual for AVs to complain about nothing
it was on spring simulcast
thats how I got infected
Still, false positives are very common
guzzini khorkhog apparently
freshly written malwares always get recognized as false positives
if there is a strong evidence and not just paranioa william* should continue researching
I had my own program flagged as a virus multiple times (probably because it was messing with registries)
If literally nothing else detects it, it's safe to say it's a false positive
depends if its safe or not
I'll go with butt farting.
Yea I'm having the cyber firm try to find a random unreal game on itch to scan and see if they find the same file.
but I would never take the responsibility of saying its safe
But it's mostly unity
unity is malware indeed
Well I mean now yea. Lol
lol an UE project has access to whole filesystem
and majority of OS utils
it doesnt need to be a malware
run as administrator and it can do anything
if its written inside of a UObject
even a plugin you downloaded if you didnt read its source code and act as a malware if you run it on editor
if someone wrote a fresh new malware it needs to be collected by AV first
it wont mark it as a virus first
if it matches some pattern or whatever its running it will complain
but it doesnt have to
depends on the malware
some malwares arent even malwares
What does this mean
Lmao
That first one definitely isn't an egg.
Now this is an egg.
wtf is this
Is that like a shark egg or something
Remember seeing something about that recently
is this what they call "grinding"
Yeah.
It looks sharp but apparently isn't
It looks like a drill bit
I'm getting an urge to throw one, don't know why ๐
Nergigante egg
You canโt just drop the n word like that

that the author vaped indoors while making this?
Wait, what? Do Teslas now start to move forward if you take your foot off the break like every other automatic in the world?
what
and then stalls if you don't do anything about it
if you break a manual to the point that it stopped moving and the gear is still in then either the motor stopped or you need a new clutch xD
the new changes are worrying...
and what the hell is a "platform"
why is this all so vague
what does this mean
what is this source?
some newsletter
its not my source
If only the EGS wasn't shit
i came here to share this
because its scary
i hope you can tell me its all lies
but it seems like this is business insider info
They didn't remove the entire grants team.
So half of them are still there.
i dont get why
wadstein was one of them
they are saying that they do it for stability
i understand it
we should be outraged and burn epic hq
but still
That's sucky for Mat.
they had only single man doing evangelism stuff on middle east and Turkey
i fear that epic is next for the rugpull
I think most people don't ever interact with evangelists though
does that include free2play games?
they do
they're busy af
wow ~40 game releases/day
that's nothing compared to mobile
Yes but most are just low effort
true
mobile or desktop?
both?
i bet 20 of the 40 games are visual novels made with renpy
In June 2023, approximately 36 thousand mobile apps were released through the Apple App Store
what are people even making
holy heck
unreal fest streams are live yay
streams are most often live
in any case guys
otherwise it's a video
i am scared for my job
Visual novels, simple platformers with pixel art, etc
is there a schedule? nvm
Gonna be streams on the stuff we're working on tomorrow <o/
some one has a "fresh" idea and everybody clones it, then repeat
I understand they needed to do that lay-off announcement before the end of the quarter, but it's still very awkward timing wrt Unreal Fest
2:00 PM - 3:00 PM Features and Tips for UE in โ23 - Chris Murphy, Epic Games
there we go
verse hot reload confirmed
Especially when they laid off people who were meant to be doing UEFest talks.
That is very worrying indeed
idk where they get the info though
Except they didn't and Glin can't read.
i talked to a few people
Does that mean Epic Grants hasve been stopped?
I CAN READ
Well that's a bummer. And this was already not fun news.
it literally said "a lot of the epic megagrants team"
not the entire team
you can't read
including a lot of the Epic MegaGrants team
i never said that
Lol
STOPPPPPPPPPPPP
FAKE NEWS

I forgive you Lawdy
conspiracy
We can always make a living making Fortnite skins
The pic said "most of the unreal mega grants team". I dont care if it's the entire or most, its concerning nonetheless
I mean it's still a bummer that any of them got let go.
i didnt even get an answer to my last grant application
It makes sense, though. Remove the people that don't generate money.
Don't generate money directly.
Yeah, im concerned they might scale back or even stop the mega grants projects
That would suck.
Passed the 90 days yet? Each time I've done it it's taken 90 days or more, with a notice that it will take longer.
That's not a good thing
I'm sure they will scale it back.
yes it would suck but as long as we can make games
i think they had a lot of fat years with fortnite and now try to cut down to the necessary
they even spend it
That's a fair assessment to be honest
its been over 6 months
They overhired during FN boom and now they're paying the price. Well, 830 people are. And it sucks, but I'd rather they don't go bankrupt.
epic tried a lot of things, to get up in a 2nd market next to fortnite, idk how much the engine makes them compared to fortnite
FAB is probably another approach to get a 2nd stable income
i dont mind epic trying things
as long as they keep the engine
i want to make games
i have nothing else
maybe my book
If I dont get answer in 90 days I would just ditch it
ditched it
The engine is probably gonna be fine, but the scope of updates might be cut back
Idk, we'll have to see
Find someone from Epic next time
Concerning nonetheless
Force them to listen your demo
haha how ๐
well the rate of updates has to decrease at some point, they pushed features like crazy in the past 2 years
Attend to any event that any Epic employee arriving
this chat isnt about me.
Or spam someone from linkedin
i will move on with my life now
I have a feeling verse and uefn is gonna be a major part of epic going forward, unreal might take a backstep
But this is just speculation
Wouldnt care much tbh
More than half of the workflow trying to fight Epics implementions
You wouldn't, others would
aren't verse and UEFN channels kinda dead here? ๐
also UEFN seems to be more restricted than Core!?
Yea they had the evangelist team. Not sure if that team is still there. They fired Christian and he was the one I was going to talk to.
I have 3, could spare two
