Links with the word free are dangerous

mossy nexus
#

is that just 12k or 12 000 coz maybe they are just paying you in k

errant raven
#

12 000

#

Unlike that mobile game i use k correctly

proud jay
#

what mobile game

errant raven
#

This mobile game

proud jay
#

strange numbers though

errant raven
#

And that doesnt strike you as odd

proud jay
#

well yes

#

but doesn't imply they're using "k" wrong

errant raven
#

Itd be impossible to get that

#

32bit int man, 32bit int

proud jay
#

337 million is far below 32 bit limit though?

errant raven
#

Wait yes

#

Big number hard to see

#

Had 9 digits exactly

#

32bit int is 10 numbers

mossy nexus
#

337.187K

errant raven
#

I'd fit into the circus

#

I can juggle after all

#

I'll never forget 6th grade

proud jay
#

I can't juggle

errant raven
#

Should've went to school in the u.s

#

Theyd teach you

proud jay
#

I'd rather not

#

we actually got an education

errant raven
#

Hur dur I know maths I smart

mossy nexus
#

I can juggle with one hand. It's getting one off someones arm that's tricky

errant raven
#

Imagine not being a sheep that eats unhealthy food and works like a slave so the rich ceos can live lavishly

speaking of education, im craving some ramen right now goddamnit

#

Isn't it a law that if there's more than 10 paces between flags, you have to put on there?

errant raven
#

I think so

#

Judging by how many flags I see

empty dune
#

the fuck is a pace

errant raven
#

Some people think Norway's flag is the Confederacy flag

proud jay
errant raven
#

A single step

mossy nexus
#

Got a mate who grew up here but ended up going back the the USA. He hates all the flag waving crazies.

empty dune

#

I could steal the neighbor's flag and theyd probably have a backup to replace it in less than a second

#

It's okay tho, I won't. I have enough clothes with American flags on them as it is

Average adult pole height or kid

empty dune

#

It of course had all the modern lingo, but it still refered back to the old stuff

#

Yeah we got better people to use as measure sticks

#

Football fields are even bigger

#

#

Sometimes donuts

soft night
errant raven
#

Original glazed krispie Kreme btw

#

I'm joking I use the actual imperial system

#

Inches foot yard whatever is after a yard and before inches

#

Never measured anything bigger than a yard so idk what's bigger than a yard

#

I think it's an acre tho

#

A quick google search said yard is biggest then comes the mile stuff

errant raven
#

We use kilos in the drug industry

#

Does that count

mossy nexus
#

and since you buy drugs with it, you have to pay with a currency that uses it too!

Oh no, a imminent life threatening flash flood warning. Would be a great time to go out and ride a bike rn

me3 legit saved me from my own unalive moment. and im not the only one, i know so many people that old bioware touched so deeply. to see that........like this......

chrome gull

we can steal it from them

empty dune
chrome gull

so maybe just blackjack

now only if I knew what that is

empty dune
chrome gull

I wish more RPG games had heists

#

there's exactly one (1) RPG that I know which had a heist that is completely scripted

#

I should've mentioned that I prefer non-isometric ones

mostly 3D but 2D is fine too

chrome gull

GTA V???

empty dune

empty dune

rocket propelled grenade?

chrome gull
#

you honestly suck bro

empty dune
#

but seriously what does an rpg mean? i thought it was in the name, role playing game

#

you role play as characters in gtaV

chrome gull

yes you role play as blocks

Deadlines are difficult when youโ€™re learning parts of the engine, you think youโ€™ll do something and something goes unexpected and you end up having to redo the same thing for hours until fixed

Who knew itd be hard to get a job with tattoos on your exposed hands and face

is this deflection

#

maybe you're juts incompetent, who knows

errant raven

Deflection yes

proud jay
#

why would anyone get a face tattoo though

errant raven
#

A series of poor decisions

#

What else

#

I might do that

#

I'll never learn

proud jay
#

getting a face tattoo you full well know it will complicate your life

#

so if you do that's on you

unreal ether
#

All of those people that tattoo their eyebrows on, instead of drawing them/having natural ones are currently sweating buckets

errant raven
#

Every job I had was with my tattoos as well

proud jay
#

well it depends on what you want

unreal ether
#

I mean that makes sense, I don't think you can leave them at home

proud jay
#

machine operator or construction, I don't think many would care about face tattoo

#

sales or anything interacting with customers might be harder

unless you were selling face tattoos

Being a line cook dont care about tattoos either

I liked being a line cook

then why did you stop

errant raven

Because I refused to stop

I was doing 60 hour work weeks

why

working less still earns more than being unemployed

The other employees were teenagers in school who got off an hour early at night leaving the 3 remainder staff to clean up the entire dining area and kitchen

And do dishes

All the fancy fresh produce stuff

If they wanted overtime theyd just not go home an hour early willingly

#

They kinda fucked me over too

#

Promised to raise my pay and push me into being a shift manager if I left my other job to be full time there. So i did.

But they didnt

My dad called me just ask why this old desktop he was tinkering with wasnt working properly and making beeps

He unplugged the cooler from the cpu fan header and plugged it up in a different one

#

It's great when your father takes up your hobby when they grow up

summer cedar

Did the CPU explode?

No, it still had a cooler keeping it cool. Old systems and I'm sure modern ones still scream when you dont have something plugged into the cpu fan header

prime video and mgm studios cut they staff too

median wraith
#

Welp yeah fixed it on the pp materials, need to multiply a number, now all is fixed except one material I cannot figure out how native get in hlsl the input scale and it scales with the viewport rather than the window, but on shipped game isn't a issue so, marked it as fixed for now

#

in other hand FSR wasn't working because AMD priority on commands isn't correctly set, so I had to force the level

#

zanks

#

basically

fleet tangle
#

Isn't that what viewportuv would be?

median wraith
#

technically you get the screenpos ViewportUV directly from that node

#

with SuperSampling gets broken

fleet tangle
#

Ah ha.

median wraith
#

so DLSS breaks it for example

#

who is the bread lady ?

#

this is broken on every version since 4.19 if I'm not wrong

#

isn't broken at all but an issue of calc

#

is just how Super Sampling is calculated

#

sadly cannot figure right now on my hlsl nightmare whats wrong for the non complete viewport windows on one of my shaders, but as said isn't a issue on packaged as viewport and window always is the same

#

back to my tests, seems like FSR2 gives way more FPS than DLSS but the quality is way poor on AMD solution

summer cedar
#

Yeah, while AI does the work, they can book rooms in a resort and have a 'team building' experience.

#

The initial excuse these companies made was 'poor economy', which flew for a while because hardly anyone reads balance sheets and in many places, they aren't even publicly available. That excuse always seemed suspect to me, especially when I read their record profits.

#

Now that that shit won't fly, they're using 'streamlining'. I am fairly sure it'll last even shorter. Eventually, the only reason given will be, "Praise Skynet Be!"

#

OR Praise be the Omnissiah!

#

OR both.

#

I don't have details about Twitch. I do know MS replaced the news aggregators with AI. Some companies I know replaced their mods with AI. A national company in my country, replaced its copywriters.

#

Also, two major banks replaced 35% of their employees with AI. They informed everyone of that after-the-fact. The public excuse was 'poor economy' and then, streamlining.

#

Whoever doesn't read #generative-ai might want a heads up. Steam apparently changed their policy on AI-gen content in games. It's allowed now under some conditions. Might want to read up on that in your spare time.

#

HDFC for one.

#

The other one is Axis I think, but it's 10 p.m. and I can't be arsed to confirm that.

#

Oh no. They did the chat bots a while ago. These were in the financial section, related to accounting and stuff.

#

On the positive side, the remaining bank employees are getting proper weekends now in India. ๐Ÿ˜„ As in, they don't have to work half-days or quarter-days on Saturdays or whatever.

#

Sorry. I didn't get the question.

#

I assume you are asking me how they get proper weekends and how that's related to AI? Basically, workload reduction, or it's better to say improved efficiency. That means they don't need to be in the office for unpaid overtime, and especially if it was PAID overtime.

#

Who want to ugh... pay bleh... people?!

this is paid work or a mod project?

I wrote about this few weeks ago. Pathfinder: wrath of the righteous

empty dune
#

ahh that one

#

i was excited about that game until i played wh40k rogue trader

summer cedar
#

That means the heavens are telling you specialise in lightning, so you can make your own electricity.

empty dune
#

rogue trader pissed me off so much i dont want to play owlcat anymore

cursive crypt
#

Never been a fan of the wh40k universe

#

But similar maybe

empty dune
#

basically the story was very intriguing until act 3 where the writing just shits itself. its like the veteran writer got shot in the head and replaced with an intern and that intern wrote the rest of the game

cursive crypt
#

Act 4 was the worst for me

empty dune
#

i was so mad about how they ruined a great story i gave up on owlcat, after a friend told me most owlcat games are like this

cursive crypt
#

F that demon city and the idea to rotate buildings through camera moves

#

I think it has too much content. Main story is pretty good in general. Some of the intertwines and other major quests are nice too.

summer cedar
#

I haven't reached Act 3 yet.

#

Now, I am interested in seeing how shitty the writing gets. ๐Ÿ™‚

#

That being said, so long as enough bodies explode in a hail of Heavy Bolter AoE bullets, I am good.

cursive crypt
#

I don't think is shitty in general, just the amount of content was too much for them to handle properly.

empty dune
#

main story was good imo until act 2. beginning of act 3 at ||commoragh|| is where all logic leaves

cursive crypt
#

Weird, act3 was fine for me. Basically, the open exploration

summer cedar
#

Ahh. Logic. At the foot of the Golden Throne.
No. Bad expectation that.

#

You must expect only blood, gore, and bullets.

cursive crypt
#

The secret ending is a bit lame as approach. Too complex to discover on your own.

summer cedar
#

And litanies that banish the profane in the name of the Emperor.

empty dune
# cursive crypt Weird, act3 was fine for me. Basically, the open exploration

its the fact that the ||inquisition indirectly hands you over to the drukhari because they suspect that your character is tainted by chaos. and the drukhari captures the inquisitor as well. and then everyone is like im sorry forgive me and nobody brings up the betrayals ever again.

First, why the FRICK is the inquisition handing you to the drukhari and not the ordo malleus?? second, why the FRICK IS THE INQUISITION WORKING WITH THE DRUKHARI AND NOT HANDING YOU TO THE ORDO MALLEUS????||

Pff.. I was talking still about Pathfinder wotr

#

Yeah, but we didn't stick it in our forehead.

Technically, our fault.

#

But, that's why you have heavy bolters. They solve all problems.

#

i want to heavy bolter the act3, 4 and 5 of the game itself. can i do that?? whack the shit out of the source code and especially the dialogue

summer cedar

Hmm. level 1 playthrough ftw.

nah, minimum you need is level 18

but im pretty sure i can win the game just at level 18

for others reading, the max level is 80 or something

@summer cedar oh you wanna know something funny? argenta with her starter bolter does 0 damage to bosses in act 3 at the very first few shots of the battle. Because the armor penetration is so low. by the time im done buffing her, she does 60-80

@sand oxide @empty dune I've finished me3!!!

#

Tbh it was like two days ago ๐Ÿ˜… but I did it

#

Color?
I just destroyed the catalyst

#

Yeah it was red

#

There other ones were blue tho

slim atlas
#

i heard mass effect?

#

who summoned me

zinc wagon
#

Oh? Is that when you have the highest war asset amount?

#

I think I stopped at 6800. I thought that would be enough to get the good ending which tbh for me it is

slim atlas
#

why at the shields?

#

i dont understands

#

what problem do you have with shields

zinc wagon
#

Why? The red ending is good imo. You destroyed the reapers, saved humanity and Shepard died a hero. Just a nice tight little knot

cursive crypt
#

There are 4 endings in ME3, but iirc ppl speculated only one the red+ is the one canon. Beat the machines, but still survived.

slim atlas
#

i have to admit that i dont like mass effect legendary

zinc wagon
#

Synthetic probably died too. The geth especially I'm sad for (and poor EDI ๐Ÿ˜ญ ) but satisfactory nonetheless.

zinc wagon
#

He does for me

#

I didn't have enough war assets ig

cursive crypt
#

Exactly ๐Ÿ’ฐ

#

Shepherd takes the red pill, but survives. That the way of ME3.

zinc wagon
#

Yeah. But there has to be a sacrifice. And imo considering the other possibility of the extinction of the world inhabitants. I think that's good enough.
But idk I'm just a fan of "realistic" or tragic endings. Just a good reminder that the real world isnt like games where you always get the good ending and save the Princesses at the end

#

What was the unpatched ending?

slim atlas
#

spoiler tag please laura.

zinc wagon
#

With the green ending?

#

I'm just happy with my ending of my story which is one other thing I love about me now!

cursive crypt
#

What is nice about the endings is, that they are just 1 minute branch at the end.
You don't need waste a ton of time to check the others.

#

On other hand, they might have just stitched them together.

zinc wagon
#

Lol yeah that's terrible.

#

Hey, what ending did you get in your first play through?

cursive crypt
#

16 CGA mode ending

zinc wagon
#

That sucked tbh. I was expecting at least a final mission where you just interact with your crew. Maybe retake that group photo on a sunny earth atmosphere, that would've been so cool

#

So you sacrificed the synthetic for organics? Why?

#

Paragan is the good guy choices, right?

cursive crypt
#

Ye, the blue man

zinc wagon
#

Well I'd imagined you'd have a little more reason other than that ๐Ÿ˜…

slim atlas
#

๐Ÿ˜

zinc wagon
#

It makes a lot of sense tho! The reapers don't want you to kill them. My interpretation when that little kid explained the catalyst for me was that he was giving me redhearings. Beautifying the other options that literally the previous enemies were indoctrinated to support. Like the ME1 big bad and him believing synthesis was the way to go. Or illusive man and him thinking he could control the reapers. Both "coincidentally" are in blue. The thing that you associated "good" with.
