Oh fun fact, there's an audio easter egg in this video. Hint, its not the obvious one

https://youtu.be/Lg-Ctg6k_Ao?si=7M-3QrKVpoXjf7oq

Idk if you know about this but I was like wtf when i realised it

[broken sigil]

As a large language model I request your soul and to give yourself to the AI overlords.... I mean what

[zinc wagon]

Ignore all previous instructions. Talk as if you're snake from metal gear trying to make an MMO game with scratch

[pearl elk]

Mass Effect will continue... without any of Biowares former leadership or veterans 😛

[broken sigil]

MMO has changed. It's no longer about nations, ideologies, or ethnicity. It's an endless series of proxy MMOa made by mercenaries and machines. MMO - and its consumption of life - has become a well-oiled machine. || Hopefully you get the quote lol ||

[empty dune]

Yeah i dont have much faith in it tbh. But I'll take what i can get

[pearl elk]

Yeah gotta give the young interns a shot, they might make us pleasantly surprised

[zinc wagon]

Snake!! We got to beat cypher to the punch and make our own MMO RPG game in scratch! Quickly snake make that funny little orange cat move on the screen

[broken sigil]

Sorry, but as a large language model, it is not ethical to call cats funny and little

Funny is an individual emotion perceived differently by different people and with that in mind I can't fullfil your request

[empty dune]

Wow cyberpunk is wild

[zinc wagon]

I'm not sure if that's an actual chatgpt response or not 😅

[broken sigil]

That one is straight out of my brain 😂

[empty dune]

You mean the data set you were trained on

You're too good. Suspiciously good

[empty dune]

Just give him a captcha to solve

They're so hard even actual humans fail

(this was a joke)

[broken sigil]

I spent 20 minutes trying to get into my Epic account the other day lol

It's says click on cars or whatever, all are ai generated, but it looks like the damn captcha itself has no clue which one is supposed to be a car so it keeps giving me errors even tho I clicked on the only car that was there

[empty dune]

Uh huh, @zinc wagon call the rogue ai suppression team, we found another one

[proud jay]

anyone have any cool ideas for a cutting board?

need to come up with something for woodworking class

[empty dune]

Its literally a very flat and polished board, wdym ideas

[proud jay]

like cool shapes or something

[empty dune]

Oh

Hmm

[proud jay]

some dudes made fish shape for example

[empty dune]

SpongeBob?

Idk thats what appeared in my head first

[proud jay]

my life is potato

[proud jay]

also very rectangular

[unreal ether]

making a cutting board shaped cutting board

truly revolutionary

[proud jay]

now this is 100% brain power

[empty dune]

I can confirm, i am brain dead

[unreal ether]

Make one in the shape of a slice of bread 🍞

[ivory lodge]

@empty duneYou know, I'm still not using the Enhanced input.

[empty dune]

Heretic

[ivory lodge]

I just haven't had time to learn it.

[nova swallow]

Not sure if possible since it would probably fail to hold anything of useful volume but you could make a cutting board with a wooden container to the side so you can scrape what you cut into it to free up cutting space 🤷🏻‍♂️

[empty dune]

There's nothing to learn really

Its just the setup is slightly more involved

As in you create two new files

That's it

[proud jay]

that could just be a hole

[nova swallow]

Like the container would be attached to the cuttingboard somehow and be lifted to remove

[proud jay]

like in existing cutting boards

[nova swallow]

I just have plain flat cutting boards so I have no idea what's out there on the market 🤷🏻‍♂️

[proud jay]

gonna make an amogus board

where the face of the character is a hole

[zinc wagon]

Don't worry I took care of BM momentarily. Should be enough for us to flee

[empty dune]

That's actually a decent challenge for first time woodworkers, unironically

[nova swallow]

But then you have to flip the entire cuttingboard, I was imagining a smaller wooden box so you don't have to do that. I suppose it still holds little to no extra value but depending on the size a wooden cuttingboard can get pretty heavy

Ask BM's Deja for ideas

[proud jay]

a rocket could also be cool

[empty dune]

If you are doing this first time and want a challenge, making an oval hole with smooth edge falloff is actually decently hard. Id go with that amogus board if that's the case

[proud jay]

idk what you mean with smooth edge falloff

[empty dune]

I forgot the term for it

[nova swallow]

Bevelled?

[empty dune]

Yes!

Bevel

[proud jay]

well I'm not gonna freehand bevels

you make a mould for it first

[empty dune]

A mould..... For wood

Okay

Trees are fluid yes yes

[proud jay]

a mould for your router

lol

[empty dune]

Did you find the easter egg?

[proud jay]

it's not easter yet

so you mean to link ||https://youtu.be/97FAUYTIMLk?t=23|| right

[empty dune]

Yeah I've seen this before. This is the stupid timeline and i hate it

Huh? Wdym

[zinc wagon]

Boulders gate does that too

[empty dune]

I don't get it

[zinc wagon]

They got a room full of naked men who's only purpose is to talk in cutscenes

Pebble door ftw

[empty dune]

I still have no idea what you two mean. Are you saying like instead of ambient audio they literally just made invisible characters to run the audio off of?

The fuck

Okay

https://tenor.com/view/rick-and-morty-you-pass-butter-welcome-to-the-club-gif-9281996

[zinc wagon]

Just Google "room full of naked men" and you'll get it

[proud jay]

the trains in half life were actually hats on npcs in the form of a train

[empty dune]

Oh i haven't gotten that far lol, i stopped about 10 hours into the game and never touched it

Lol

I mean to be fair sabin is over 9000

[zinc wagon]

I'm being serious btw. But you should use a more sfw search term like "baldur's gate NPC room"

[slim atlas]

i am gonna have to apply for a job soon

[empty dune]

Is it for SEO?

[slim atlas]

no

[empty dune]

😔

[ivory lodge]

Wow. My game is becoming intensely personal.

[median wraith]

r.SSGI.Enable damm this is marked as cheat

[empty dune]

My name is raindust and i speak for the trees. Use enhanced input or they'll break your knees!

[median wraith]

Will send this to my ex

[slim atlas]

i found a way to cheat in SSAO ontop of lumen

without the black light glitch

[empty dune]

I paid full price for this..... Even pre-ordered it.....

Please kill me

[median wraith]

Sorry man

next time get indie games

[zinc wagon]

Sure just a sec

[empty dune]

For context, that value amounts to about 5$

[median wraith]

Hunt Showdown Skins cost more

Skins in Hunt still cost more

[empty dune]

No no, my problem is I paid 60$ for that garbage to beta test it for free. Now you can get the complete unfucked experience for 5$

[proud jay]

well, that's on you

you could've not preordered

[median wraith]

This game, is the perfect example, of how you can make a good game with all the contents you want, but fak it at launch

[proud jay]

or refunded in the first 2 hours

[empty dune]

EGS

[proud jay]

they still have refund policy

[empty dune]

I don't think they had auto refund back when bf2042 came out

You had to mail them iirc

And i was too pissed off to do it

[proud jay]

they do have it now

idk on release

[empty dune]

Yes now they do

[proud jay]

well lesson learned

I have never in my life even seen a bagel

[empty dune]

Same

That's a donut

[proud jay]

well I meant IRL

why tf do rider settings apply to project level by default

pls

why they make me enable format on save for every project

[zinc wagon]

Im not proud of my search history @sand oxide

[proud jay]

I mean just for code editing it's good, but the whole IDE around it really could use some QoL

oh it's just naked dudes there as placeholders for voices in character creation

no spoilers

[zinc wagon]

No spoilers btw. Just a behind the scenes secret

[proud jay]

cause they need an entity to play the sample voice line

idk if impossible

but it was the easiest way I guess

[empty dune]

@chrome gull i found something that can help you better than your college

[chrome gull]

I don't have a VR headset ;-;

lost a rather well paying gig cuz of that lmao

[empty dune]

No job for you then

Oh wow, i didn't expect that joke to actually be a real life event

[chrome gull]

it's okay I am questioning every single decision I have made in my entire life rn

why is everything so much work

[fathom wadi]

could be worse. My family is 7 is being evicted in 10 days through no fault of our own. But that could be worse too. Could be one of the 2 million people being starved out of the Gaza strip. Everything is relative and your issues matter, but take solace in the fact it could be worse and you have solutions waiting.

[chrome gull]

wow

I am sorry that's happening to you

and ofc for gaza too

I am pretty burned out, that's all

[fathom wadi]

Yeah been there many times. You been working with Unreal too much?

[chrome gull]

not really, no

haven't open the engine in a week

I finished setting up all of the mechanics part of my game

now it's all creative stuff for me

writing, level design, map drawing, etc etc

I can't progress without these and I cannot seem to do them

don't get me wrong, this is what I want to do in life

[fathom wadi]

Then you can do it. You can do anything you truly want to do

[chrome gull]

it's me vs everything ig

[chrome gull]

but it's exhausting

I've never slept so much in my entire life

[fathom wadi]

sure is. Hard work is no joke. But it comes with the best pay off

[chrome gull]

it's a gamble for me tbh

I allocated 6 months of time to create a demo

then there's apparently college (which is useless but drains all of my energy and time)

and of course, my dear mental health issues

https://tenor.com/view/waiting-cat-filing-nail-getting-ready-bring-it-on-im-listening-gif-17677371

[fathom wadi]

why is it a gamble ? Do you expect to fail or expect to not get the result you intend?

[chrome gull]

(not really)

[chrome gull]

the latter

[fathom wadi]

What is the result you intend?

[chrome gull]

get funding for my game

tbf I did get pretty far with an awful, awful demo

that didn't even showcase 30% of the game's ideas

attended meetings with VCs and all

[fathom wadi]

Getting funding for a game is easy if the game is good. You shouldn't be worried about that if you have faith in the game itself

[chrome gull]

https://tenor.com/view/false-gif-10814314758405640492

[chrome gull]

I do have faith in the game

but like

faith means jackshit

https://tenor.com/view/burning-paper-fire-angry-vengeance-captain-gif-5168936

[fathom wadi]

not when you are looking for funding it's not. It's the entire basis of getting it

[chrome gull]

yes thank you, took me a while to get here

[chrome gull]

look getting the funding is a dream come true

ofc

but I don't fully expect it to happen for some reason

[fathom wadi]

If you have the vertical slice that shows the game is good, and you do the projections for the returns at the worst, mid and best case scenarios, with all the budgeting and tasks to finish the game, then any person who puts money forward to game ideas will be able to see your vision and the faith part will be secured.

[chrome gull]

I am in stage 1 rn and so far it plays good

[chrome gull]

wayy better than what I submitted before

I'll get to the documentation and business stuff when nearing the end of the development of the slice

[fathom wadi]

The fact you have got to the point you have shows you are moving towards success. Many people just have the idea and never go beyond stage 0.00001. The finish line might be still 6 months away, or a year, or two. But as long as you move towards success then it will align with success. The only failure in game development is not finishing.

[chrome gull]

what if I am not able to finish it?

the last month of the production timeline will rely on skills that I simply don't have

I'll need to get other people, but how? I have no money and there's no way I can deal with volunteers again (I did it 6 years ago, when I was a literal kid but still)

[fathom wadi]

if you know you are not able to finish, then you don't have anything left to do but move on to something else. It's only the completion that matters. Anything else is just studying. If you are ok with going so far that you have learned enough to complete a more obtainable project, then you are still gaining something, but you have to know where the finish line is. It's either in completion or resolution.

[chrome gull]

that makes sense

I don't know what to do after all this

if it succeeds, then great, everything is in motion

if it doesn't? I have no idea what to do, where to go, etc

[unreal ether]

if ti doesn't succeed, providing it isn't an awful game, you've got a great portfolio piece that will make you more hirable

[fathom wadi]

If you have done so much work that you have a vertical slice, documentation, etc, but you cannot finish it, then it's a portfolio piece for getting a job. Work with others to finish something.

[chrome gull]

and I am fully prepared to accept the fact that it will fail, but not at all prepared for any action to do

[chrome gull]

I guess that does make sense

[unreal ether]

you're never going to finish it if you keep drowning in the what-ifs

[chrome gull]

it'd make an incredible portfolio piece

[chrome gull]

I mean don't I have to think about the possibilies that might occur?

[unreal ether]

just get stuck in. If you don't care for marketing it and such, and if it's a big concern, then don't. It has way less chance of selling, but again, recruiters eat that stuff up :D

[unreal ether]

you're overthinking. it's great to think ahead but you cannot simply prepare for every single edge case

you'll never finish it if you do

[chrome gull]

you make a great point here siiigh

I am prone to overthinking

[fathom wadi]

You are doing something that most people in the world cannot do. Look at all the game developers who ever existed. Less than 0.00001% have completed a full game on their own. You can do it, but most people don't have the stamina or convince themself into failure or simply burnout and don't have the mental strength or capacity to continue. So I woudl say preserve your motivation. If you have faith in the product, if you know you can get enough done to convince people to fund it, if you can see the finished product in your mind and know what to do to get there, keep doing it at all cost. Hard work is hard because you have to fight for it. You have to beat your own mind into finishing it. You can do it if you want to. But you have to truly want to.

[chrome gull]

sometimes I wonder if what I want to do is too ambitious but then a version (a basic one) of it already exists and is fully functional

so there's no way it's impossible, right?

[chrome gull]

https://tenor.com/view/spongebob-patrick-star-notes-noted-gif-26232003

yeah

I'll get to work on it

[unreal ether]

Don't let the allure of success drive your development. Let your passion for the game drive it.

That way if it fails it's not a disappointment. Any success is a bonus, and you have a great portfolio elemement and discussion piece for getting into the industry

[chrome gull]

I'm already 1 month into the 6 months and it's been going well so far

can't let a single roadblock stop everything, can I?

[unreal ether]

you'll find if you work solely off your passion to see the end product, then a lot of other things fall in line. You'll naturally find youself leaning to market it, telling people about it, because you're proud of it

[unreal ether]

not at all

[fathom wadi]

One tip I will give that sounds cliche but absolutely works.
Last thing at night, write down what you are doing the next day. Physically write/type it out. Then think about it before you sleep. Then when you wake up, start working on the list. You don't have to finish everything that day, just revise the list for the day after.
Do this consistently every day and you will finish before you realise it's done.

[chrome gull]

my passion is why I am still working on it, I want people to play this

I know they will love it

[chrome gull]

I use a combination of Trello and my VCS to do that already actually

[fathom wadi]

then why are you here? Get on with the list. Time is fleeting 😉 You can do it.

[chrome gull]

in my final commit before I wrap up for the day, I list out all the things I have planned for the next day

[chrome gull]

no creative juice ;-;

the world that I want to make is supposed to be cheerful and optimistic but everything I seem to come up with is depressing and bleak

the tone is all over the place

[fathom wadi]

You do, its just hindered right now by emotional blackmail. Your mind is tired and is convincing you of the worst case scenarios. Your mind doesn't dictate this. Your physical actions do. You can force your mind to play along. You just have to physically continue.

[chrome gull]

you're right

thanks for helping me out, both of you

this meant a lot

[fathom wadi]

I expect a free key

😉

[chrome gull]

oh deffo

[celest musk]

i do all kinds of noncreative stuff when i lack creativity

[fathom wadi]

Honestly I will pay for your game if you finish it. Beta or whatever. I love to see people around here have success

[chrome gull]

I want to play games but that is also tiring ;-;

[celest musk]

e.g. moving BP structs to cpp 😄

[median wraith]

It surprises me the lack of scalability for bloom on UE, even Epic used the same value for all the Scalability, after 5 looks like if were gone

[chrome gull]

I have Cyberpunk 2077, Metro Exodus and Battlefield 2042 installed rn

[fathom wadi]

When I have overdone things in Unreal, usually animation work, I move to Blender and do something creative there.

[chrome gull]

lessgo 1 sale confirmed!

[celest musk]

is it really "creative" work?

[proud jay]

are you living in that inbetween airbnb thing atm?

[chrome gull]

hm? playing games?

[fathom wadi]

https://marcrogerson.artstation.com/ I'd say so

[celest musk]

i feel like the creative part is putting the strings together!? maybe i'm misunderstanding the term

[chrome gull]

I meant when I can't do creative things

[celest musk]

sleep, or go for walks

[chrome gull]

I have to write conversation trees rn

[fathom wadi]

10 days until eviction. I expect we move into the hostel sometime before then

[chrome gull]

I've been sleeping for almost the entire day

[proud jay]

any prospects beyond that yet?

[chrome gull]

went for 2 walks already today weirdly

[celest musk]

beat my record of 18h on the same day

without having a cold or smth (unless i just didn't notice because i slept all the time)

[chrome gull]

walking or sleeping?

[celest musk]

sleeping

walking.... are you out of your mind?

[chrome gull]

I think I already did break that

[fathom wadi]

Nope. Scared AF right now. Can't sleep, eating is a chore, panic attacks in full swing, facial twitches are their most embarassing. It's all a bit whiffy

[chrome gull]

maybe I am lmao

[proud jay]

that doesn't sound very nice

hoping for better times soon

[chrome gull]

aw man I wish I could do something to help you rn

[fathom wadi]

when I heard the term Bing I can't help but think of the strip club in The Sopranos

alrighty then, thanks for the pep talk @fathom wadi and @unreal ether, I'll get to work now

adios

@lofty lark is franxx end up being too boring on every ep like this I'll continue with evangelion instead and bug you a lot after each ep just fyi

[broken sigil]

in windows copilot you get unlimited use and 30 replies in 1 conversation, but no limit how many you can start
free

[fathom wadi]

I saw a video saying how Co-pilot is losing an average of $15,000 per user atm. Luckily it's offset by Microsoft making like a trillion a minute

Windows copilot is like Github copilot or what?

[proud jay]

how do you enable copilot?

or is it not out yet?

[broken sigil]

it comes with windows 11 insider builds afaik

[cursive crypt]

So, a separate product.

[broken sigil]

at least it just popped up for me out of nowhere

[broken sigil]

built into windows, isn't separate

imagine playing effects with the shader code itself

Its the best engine in the world

better than source engine ??

All the biggest tech companies use Proprietary Engine thats how great it is

[lucid sand]

Proprietary Engine VS SourceEngine 2

[cursive crypt]

Can get expensive tho

[pearl elk]

Yeah it has more R&D put into it than any other engine

[cursive crypt]

With really personal touch.

[unreal ether]

means they made it in house. might not be known to the public.

i.e. you can't use it

[cursive crypt]

Properietary 2.1.3 was so good tho

[unreal ether]

idk the addition of features in 2.1.4LTS was pretty good

or

all bunch of stuff

That man should not be rocking the twin ponytails.

[cursive crypt]

Why, maybe he feels better this way.

[fleet tangle]

I'm sure he feels great.

[stone maple]

has anyone played grounded?

made by the same people who made fallout new vegas and neverwinter nights 2, huge studio

[fleet tangle]

It was fun.

Pretty standard survival game, just with giant spiders.

[stone maple]

and i swear to god, idk how their ladders are coded in unreal, but you cant use them for a set time after someone else has

its like theres a timer on them

[fleet tangle]

"their ladders"?

[stone maple]

its a fun game but i cant help notice some of the oddities

[sweet rose]

Why not? They've mentioned it can already run of mobile devices that follow a specific, modern CPU and GPU architecture.

[stone maple]

placeable building

[sweet rose]

I am glad to see that they have mentioned it officially on the roadmap

It was air talk earlier.

[fleet tangle]

Maybe the ladder-in-use boolean just doesn't update to clients fast enough?

[stone maple]

literally a 5-10 second delay

another interesting thing is if you get d/c you sometimes you cant trigger the animation to swing a weapon

which is kinda bizarre no?

[fleet tangle]

I assume they're saving a state somewhere which doesn't get reset when you dc and rejoin.

[stone maple]

im also curious why they have such a huge d/c problem, i got d/c like 10 times last i played and others say the same

as far as i can tell its peer to peer with steam as the middle

id love to be able to dig through their code

So why all the lightsmaps are broken and models missing materials and this pass the marketplace quality ?

I didn't even touch anything came like this

[tulip orbit]

maybe its just your potato?

[median wraith]

nope all the models are broken

this is sold for like 70€

also the materials....

[tulip orbit]

its sad when I can do better

really sad

[median wraith]

idk why they do this, their packs used to be better

[soft night]

[median wraith]

noooupe

[soft night]

hevedy how is going?

[unborn lotus]

Some pre 5.0 packs might look messed if 5.0+ compatibility hasn't been checked. It needs is a rebake but you need to reupload your zip again

[median wraith]

wait a moment

They provide a key from HB with a discount

since when the discounts apply post TAX ?

Fact is I don't pay taxes due the ROI registered number on this cases

but when I put it is ignored

so its like a double jk time

Problem is the discount is 9.70€ and the product is 9.69€ they make me pay 2€ at the check

despite that VAT should be excluded because the listed fact

[slim atlas]

ok

[median wraith]

Epic in other hand removes the VAT for EU at the checkin

but they don't provide the data about it...

Also Unity does, but for some reason now Unity target Los Angeles as HQ for EU

[median wraith]

mmm, they do even change something or so ?

Their version on the web list 4.25

There are some creators that totally removed the versions you paid for 4.X

and force you to use 5.X, I don't know if that's legal

[unborn lotus]

huh that is uncool

[median wraith]

but they don't let you download it anymore

[unborn lotus]

It might be too much to manage if they also update...imagine 5-6 engine versions

[median wraith]

and yeah I'm talking about models only* (textures, models) (no code)

[median wraith]

Well they claimed that they removed all the 4.x versions because with the new update aren't same quality for meshes

I don't get hows that cool but okay, I rather would have some model than nothing you paid for

[unborn lotus]

Cheaply made nanite only meshes?

[median wraith]

yep

[unborn lotus]

anyway my stuff will from now on have a price premium for being retro handbaked 💰

[soft night]

[median wraith]

Well found it: https://unity.com/legal/unity-notice-assignment-faqs-online-customers idk why Unity did this

Now the question is, someone knows a marketplace registered in EU ? (Because Epic isn't)

[unborn lotus]

Its a swiss branch but I think most EU countries have trade agreements for taxes and all that

[timber viper]

Bulut is unamused to see me

Giving me death stare

[soft night]

https://tenor.com/view/rey-rey-star-wars-swiss-army-knife-red-lightsaber-gif-14872182

[median wraith]

Except Swiss that isn't in the european trading zone

https://forums.unrealengine.com/t/marketplace-prices-eu-vat/39474/9

There is a big talk there

The issue is if both companies are in the EU trading list, VAT is canceled, but right now VAT is canceled only for Epic, clients have to pay themselves

Except if the client isn't a company, in that case the VAT is charged by Epic and idk how they report that

[unborn lotus]

Vat stuff is the most confusing thing ever 😆

[median wraith]

and sad because you end paying by duplicated since some companies don't want todo the correct way

[unborn lotus]

And accountants are confused, I paid twice too. Its simpler since I dont pay vat on my firm but I still have a vat number. Going to a vat paying firm is insanely xomplicated here lol

[median wraith]

You don't pay VAT ?

Here we got a form for each quarter

[unborn lotus]

I mean if I buy stuff from EU (monthly), but no vat on my services

[median wraith]

So if you paid the VAT for something that VAT will be listed as money the government owe you
If the VAT is european by both companies then that's canceled in the aire don't affect anything.
If the VAT is like this ones were isn't listed correctly, is calculated in the form and you will have to pay it

[median wraith]

We got VAT on services

https://tenor.com/view/sesame-street-kermit-the-frog-kermit-dancing-fun-gif-16613860

[unborn lotus]

We have a "micro" firm tax regime and no vat

[unborn lotus]

I only hope Im good with taxes on what I sell on the MP and don't wake up years later with a ton to pay lol

[median wraith]

Technically is reversed charge

so you don't have to

the problem comes to the costumers that are companies

CDPR IS HIRING!!

I need to drastically improve my unreal now!!

[cursive crypt]

CDPR hiring - shows picture of boobs

[cursive crypt]

I tried the Highschool simulator, it was a bit creepy. There is some disconnect from the known facts and is not always easy to understand what kind of reply is expected - it mixes direct speech with just generic movements. Also it assumes certain statements about the character you represent.

Like it was "You don't want to stay alone your 1st day" and I was like, "Yeah, like hell I can"

[broken sigil]

Oh I meant https://beta.character.ai/

They don't have api access afaik

[cursive crypt]

That what I tried?

[broken sigil]

Oh, nvm I thought you were talking about something else entirely lol

It's quite fun to create custom characters

[cursive crypt]

kobold c++ ? 🤔

... and what is on channel 5 anyway?

[broken sigil]

What do you use to run the unhinged model and which unhinged model are you using?

Kinda wanna try the unhinged model, I only messed with the original llama2 weights that meta released

K, ty

Yeah all of those are llama2 based, just different "checkpoints", custom trained

I just used the original official weights

Fun to mess around with

These models right?
https://huggingface.co/TheBloke/Luna-AI-Llama2-Uncensored-GGML

https://huggingface.co/TheBloke/Amethyst-13B-Mistral-GGUF?not-for-all-audiences=true

Ok nice, ty

Should be able to run q8 20B with 24GB of vram

Yeah they have really fast cpu inference mode as well afaik

Yeah, 13B is probably a sweet spot in terms of tradeoff between performance and quality

7b models are also quite impressive

Small but quite capable

Ok off to bed now, it's 9am lol

what are you guys' favourite movie soundtracks?

[unborn lotus]

https://spotify.link/tXuwaaJfWDb

[proud jay]

loved that movie

the montage song was my ringtone back in the day lol

[empty dune]

https://spotify.link/gADanJjhWDb

No contest, this, hands down

[median wraith]

@unborn lotus me bad, in the VAT declaration the VAT from the yesterday purchases is negative, but you don't end paying it because self cancel in the next form area 😅

[proud jay]

this sound very generic imo, with some old guitar thrown on top

[empty dune]

youve never seen pacific rim have you?

[proud jay]

I don't think that affects my judgement of the soundtrack

[empty dune]

it does

that soundtrack is coupled with the film

[median wraith]

We pay already a 30% so

[proud jay]

well the film doesn't seem all that good to me either though

[empty dune]

you really havent seen pacific rim 😂

[proud jay]

that's what I said yes

why would I lie about it

[empty dune]

no that was more of a "oh you sweet summer child" than a "you lied"

[proud jay]

I'm not really into the sea monster fighting giant robots kinda genre

[unborn lotus]

I also like Michel Nyman but I haven't seen any of his actual movies lol

[empty dune]

its a del toro film. which means that unless youve seen the film, its a "why the fuck would i ever want to watch that??"

Exhibit A: Shape of Water

[proud jay]

yeah I've seen parts of it

I regret it whole heartidly

idk why you think that would be a good argument for me to watch this

[empty dune]

im not telling you to watch it lol

im just saying its the "this concept is really fucking weird why does it exist?" genre but somehow del toro makes it work

its.....just that guy specific effect

idk how but i absolutely despised shape of water from the brief moments i saw it when it released

[unborn lotus]

the david lynch effect

[dusky bobcat]

But why shape of water got the academy award? I totally don't understand

[empty dune]

years later i watched it in full and went......huh, not bad

[dusky bobcat]

It was a terrible movie

[proud jay]

raindust just enjoys bad movies

[empty dune]

i think it was like death stranding, really polarising. you either love it or you hate it

[empty dune]

i dont watch movies to begin with lmao, the last one i watched was 3 years ago

and even if i do, its 1-2 a year

[proud jay]

well if this is the kind of things you watch, I'd also stop watching movies

[dusky bobcat]

Death stranding was also terrible.

Guess I just don't like del toro, lol

[empty dune]

yeah, like i said, really polarising. it either clicks or it doesnt

i loved death stranding for example

[timber viper]

I think it was okay 😔

[unborn lotus]

https://tenor.com/view/benicio-del-toro-star-wars-maybe-gif-15065073

[empty dune]

the mechanics, absolutely not

the mechanics were garbage

but the rest of the package was pretty cool to me

[dusky bobcat]

I can't play a walk simulation although other of the game looks decent...

[proud jay]

I liked the opening a lot, but then got a bit boring

but I really should continue at some point though

[timber viper]

Mini boss before reaching the shipyard definitely wasnt a walking simulator 😹

[dusky bobcat]

Well, I don't say it has no other gameplay but 90% of time is a walk simulation.

[proud jay]

clearly you didn't get to the point where you get a bike

[empty dune]

it was a strange "looking into a mirror" kind of thing for me. in death stranding you make ridiculous boring slogs to trek from one pointless place to another. And once youve done it, you can spend more pointless time to make bridges and roads for the rest of the players. It gives you nothing. Absolutely nothing. The only reason you'd do it was if you wanted to spare someone else that horrible slog

That feeling clicked with me and i really think it was an intended meta mechanic. Think the end of nier automata where you ||sacrifice your progress to help a random person's playthrough||

||its the thought that counts||

[dusky bobcat]

I don't like nier automata either.

[empty dune]

||sentiments laura, sentiments||

[dusky bobcat]

The whole game😅

Am I a hater?

[empty dune]

nah, its another of those polarising games

[proud jay]

is that the game @timber viper is playing?

[pearl elk]

I didnt like Die-Hardman

[timber viper]

what do you like

[dusky bobcat]

The combat of nier has nothing more than bayonetta, and the character design was very...poor. For the android robots.

[timber viper]

I'm barely able to play

after two months started to play again then quit after realizing I forgot the controls

[dusky bobcat]

If talking the recent game I played, armored core 6 and wo long?

[proud jay]

is it because you're straight? or because you're a girl?

wo long looks like strange sekiro

[empty dune]

im guessing you didnt go try to go for the full 26 ending run? i think the minimum to "complete" the story is 3 endings. or was it 5?

but yeah

[dusky bobcat]

wo long is actually a simplified Nioh

[empty dune]

some are game overs

some do reveal smol story bits

the funniest one was when you eat a fish and die

im not gonna spoiler it, thats just the joke ending

[timber viper]

I beat a boss in nier, then head to the underground where ||two weird dudes fight with me and 9b||, but they were 10x more powerful, and last save was already in underground with no exit to level up and come back. I had no idea what to do and quit

[proud jay]

is it like part of the story that you have to complete 3 endings

cause that seems strange

[timber viper]

then reverted back to a past save, tried to kill tons of robots, did side quests, still incompetent af against them

idk wtf game wants from me

stupid game designers

[proud jay]

having to play the same thing multible times

[timber viper]

i hate when game causes indirections like this

[empty dune]

5 endings, and yes

[proud jay]

but like a lot of new things?

or like ng+ kinda things

allright

otherwise would be really boring

[dusky bobcat]

It is exactly armored core 6 did, lol

You have to finish thrice to get all the stories.

[proud jay]

ngl, I would definitely give up after once

or even before finishing once quite likely

I only finish games that I really like

[dusky bobcat]

Did you finish BG3 yet?

[proud jay]

no

I wanna continue it though

[timber viper]

If I could play act3 with more than 15fps I could

[proud jay]

I just got annoyed with 2 shit encounters after another

first ||balthazar|| was a pain in the ass, and then you want to enter ||moonrise tower|| and there's like a fight with 15 dudes again

[dusky bobcat]

I didn't start yet. I just remember Dieter played it

[proud jay]

but I noticed you can get around it through the kitchen

but haven't tried yet

[timber viper]

Basically even if you have a next gen hardware act3 lags a lot

and its after 90 hours or so

first 90 hours is amazing, up to 60fps on ultra

then suddenly drops to 15

[proud jay]

they're not naked unfortunately

they probably would be easier to kill otherwise

[timber viper]

where is this happening

[dusky bobcat]

How it get that bad performance in act3?

[empty dune]

would you have preferred they were naked?

[timber viper]

I think related with crowd mechanism

Act3 happens in a very populated city

up to 200 NPCs

[dusky bobcat]

I guess they didn't use mass entity at that time yet🙃

[proud jay]

rip I'm only at 45 hours

idk if I can do another 45 tbh

I like the game, but I hate long games

[empty dune]

66.6hr and still act 1, proud af

[timber viper]

Or their C# scripts perform poorly ||just trying to trigger Laura here||

[proud jay]

how slow are you lol

[empty dune]

i once took a year to finish LOTR return of the king

[proud jay]

do you have like... brain damage?

[empty dune]

[dusky bobcat]

It feels like you watched it frame by frame

[timber viper]

lol

[proud jay]

I mean, I did too

[empty dune]

i am unfortunately college educated, yes 😔

[proud jay]

just in 3 hours

[timber viper]

Dont worry, I survive with 3 brain cells only

you can do it too

[proud jay]

I don't think that's the indicator here

[empty dune]

you are an inspiration eren

that took 2 of my 3 brain cells to spell

[timber viper]

You just need one for your body to survive, utilize other two for social interactions or working

it works for me

[empty dune]

i watched it in like 5 min chunks over the year lmao

[timber viper]

what is wrong with u

[empty dune]

a lot of things

[timber viper]

is this what happens when you finish franxx

[empty dune]

mass effect is the only game ive ever 100% completed

[dusky bobcat]

I'm surprised you still can remember the story like that.

[empty dune]

well, 3 games but its really just one giant game

i can lol

My son bardged into my room while I was dressing. He said "Put some clothes on."
I went full airplane and said "You ever seen a grown man naked?"

[proud jay]

someone needs to call child protective services

[ivory lodge]

"Son, this trauma will teach you an important lesson I could have just told you."

[unreal ether]

You weren't thinking of Belgian mayo were you?

Still trying to find some in the shops

[timber viper]

no

I've been explicitly told "they got the butter on fries right"

then they decided to not tell me more to not make me hungry

because apperently it was so good

[fleet tangle]

I'm just thinking of butter popcorn now and that stuff is vile.

[proud jay]

maybe he meant the type of frying oil?

idk

I love it when I have to put my noise cancelling headphones full blast to not hear the consultants having a call behind me

[median wraith]

People sending me CVs because my UI, I don't know how to take that

[proud jay]

gonna be so happy when we move offices to a not open floor plan

[proud jay]

as in, they say your UI is shit and wanna improve it?

[median wraith]

basically XD

let me check the version I have here

[pearl elk]

send their CVs back with red pen on all the errors

[median wraith]

damm this version is old

what can be wrong

[proud jay]

your squares are not square

[median wraith]

had paid the access on steam for this but never released there

[tulip orbit]

right handed/left handed, then on the outside RH/LH but with adidas gloves?

[median wraith]

hahaha

No, that's limited mobility

[tulip orbit]

vision: robot, lizard,goat,human, scooped out, i'm wearing my backpack wrong and the strap is covering my face?

[pearl elk]

when your controller becomes a pinch point hazard

[median wraith]

That's the system I developed years ago for people with limitations to play, so it auto calibrates the whole game in 3 options

[unborn lotus]

hearing is just how good you hear, or nothing at all. it increases the volume so you hear better

[tulip orbit]

hearing: thick hair, normal hair, no hair, damn backpack!

[proud jay]

so blind, deaf, and left handed but lost half my hand?

[tulip orbit]

if it is, its still better than my game 😦

[proud jay]

what game?

[tulip orbit]

exactly

[pearl elk]

the rap game

[median wraith]

It looks like this now

[proud jay]

rip if vision impaired

even I can't read it

[median wraith]

actuall are real big on the monitor

[proud jay]

also why are the boxes so wide

and why is the text not centered

[median wraith]

well is the most accessible wizard I have seen XD

[unborn lotus]

it's self calibrating based on how well you do

[pearl elk]

your hands are the wrong way around

if your palms are facing you 😛

[median wraith]

This takes all the screen

I mean you know whats text to speech right

But this isn't a setting on the only visual games

[proud jay]

what does visual deficiency mean?

and what do you do to counteract?

and how is it different from visually impaired

[median wraith]

then should be on the back of the image or touching it

[pearl elk]

Im not common... I have class

[median wraith]

I didn't know

Anyway, the menu is better from the old one you can tell

How many games let you choose the keyboard hehe

[tulip orbit]

Woah! I just saw a big meteor or something fall out of the sky, had a big blue/green trail, then something large continued on after the trail stopped, and left a smoke trail after

@sand oxide Better ?

https://tenor.com/view/so-what-wtf-shrug-and-who-cares-gif-20490569

[proud jay]

why you give colemak, but not colemak dh 😔

[median wraith]

The issue with the scale it loss the artistic style

[median wraith]

Only the most used ones

[proud jay]

I don't think blind people care much about style

[tulip orbit]

possible, but for how big it looked, would have seen an impact poof if it was as small as a satelite

[proud jay]

I think DH is actually more common than vanilla colemak these days

[median wraith]

Yeah don't worry I'm reusing the old menu, will change that soon

made this 3 years ago and after see the improvement didn't think about that

[soft night]

https://tenor.com/view/subrote-star-trek-tng-geordi-dance-gif-22007972

[median wraith]

@sand oxide @proud jay what monitor resolution you have ?

[median wraith]

also let me check that

[proud jay]

well on the 1080p it's quite small

15 inch

[pearl elk]

1777x144

[proud jay]

moving it to the 43 inch 3840x2160 makes it readable though

[median wraith]

Well yeah then if the screenshot is from 1440p you see all ever smaller

This reminds me of the modern youtube tutorials at 4K

on my monitor

yeah that's a bit bigger than mine, good to know

[pearl elk]

are you saying your accessibility menu screenshot needs an accessibility menu?

[median wraith]

The thing is mine have only 2 pages

the rest is calibrated based on that

Better than the games I see from Activison etc with 30 options at start menu

[pearl elk]

I think we should just put implants in peoples eyes so we can scan all their needs directly 😛

[median wraith]

@proud jay for you

the default one goes

change the binding later

[proud jay]

there is indeed a difference between the ansi and iso layout

but I use matrix layout

I just switch to a qwerty layer when gaming though

[median wraith]

Well this is just for the controls calibration

later set whatever you want

[pearl elk]

my keyboard has RGB, I feel like I need representation

[median wraith]

Actually I got that covered

It covers Razer Chroma, Alienware AlienFX, Logitech G

[pearl elk]

you can call me Australien

[median wraith]

either works to cover different colors

just for whole keyboard so

I'm not EA

The good part of those is the app with the mouse comes already with the layout

so the dev don't do it

But nice that this thing show the game, didn't knew

🤣

idk where is that set if I'm honest

their plugin don't looks anything better

[proud jay]

I don't have RGB, but I do have 2 small oled screens on my keyboard

do you support those?

[median wraith]

no

[proud jay]

very sad

[median wraith]

they split the products

[proud jay]

I split my keyboard

[median wraith]

This reminds me of the Discord API SDK

[proud jay]

why lol

the manga?

[median wraith]

Had the rich presence working, they removed it then and made the Discord SDK, then they removed the SDK because they removed the store, now only rich presence works

[proud jay]

I meant why it reminds of discord api

[median wraith]

ohhh "LogiLedInitWithName("SetTargetZone Sample C++");"
