It might be a cake, not crap.

summer cedar
#

No. It's a popular novel from China. They made an anime and a TV series from it.

brittle holly
#

Maybe there’s waifus in it or w/e kids go for these days

summer cedar
#

The King's Avatar.

cursive crypt
#

How many authors wrote it?

proud jay
#

who the fuck has time to read 14k pages of the same crap though

brittle holly
#

Is it littered with propaganda ?

cursive crypt
#

Sounds like a soap opera squared.

summer cedar
brittle holly
#

Is it copying some other western book?

proud jay
#

It's a drag to read a series of more than 2 books

#

why would anyone ever willingly read 14k pages

fluid bloom
#

I don't know

#

if you read them as they are published it's okay

summer cedar
proud jay
#

well then you leave time in between

summer cedar
#

If you have Netflix, you can watch the show.

fluid bloom
#

ya, it's isn't that daunting then

proud jay
#

I assume you don't take a years break when reading the 14k book

fluid bloom

I've watched the show three times and anime twice. πŸ™‚

On other hand iirc the C++ standard was 2000 pages πŸ€”

#

So, it is not impossible.

proud jay
brittle holly
#

The C++ standard is β€œass”, I thought ?

cursive crypt
summer cedar
#

Korean, Chinese, English, and even the Indian ones.

proud jay
#

if only there was a world outside of netflix

summer cedar
#

Watched those too.

#

πŸ˜„

proud jay
#

or maybe you just watch too much tv

cursive crypt
#

It is nice to have time to read books.

summer cedar
#

and play games. Multi-task. πŸ˜„

#

But yes, I am a bit picky.

proud jay
summer cedar
#

Right. Off to read. Shush you lot!

proud jay
#

you should just read the entirety of #lounge instead

#

probably less than 14k pages

brittle holly
#

Only 13,999 pages to go

summer cedar
#

@cursive crypt Actually, out of the four or five good Chinese shows I've watched, only one of them contained what'd pass for 'propaganda' and even that was basically 'study hard and work for the country'. Of course, the subtitles might have been sanitised for international viewing, but still...

summer cedar
#

You know what was super propaganda-y? Once Upon a Time in China series. But, that's really old.

#

And a lot of kung-fu in it, too.

cursive crypt

#

You’re never gonna finish the book at this rate

Pressing the arrow keys to scroll the pages with the free hand (that was holding the plate a second ago), while balancing the plate with the little pinky of the hand that is also holding the samosas, is a pain. BUT, it does keep things clean.

#

Now, time for a chewing gum.

#

bruh, we're discussing a new feature, people are giving useful input

#

only thing scrum master says: Should we split this spike up into 2 spikes

#

who in the flying fuck gives a shit

errant raven
#

2 spikes are better than 1 spike

summer cedar
#

Why don't you add to the fun and suggest four spikes instead?

unborn lotus
#

You gotta say "we need to find a balance", applicable to any meeting

proud jay
#

I just had a meeting with the scrum master

#

and he did say that like 3 times

cursive crypt
#

What he wants to spike?

#

This is not good.

empty dune
proud jay
#

was meeting about this

empty dune
#

do you have a scrum mistress dieter

proud jay
#

apparently QA people just like to complain and don't want to learn anything new and only do what they do now

#

so either they'll change or we kick them from the team and get other qa people

empty dune
#

qa is expendable, every AAA company knows that

proud jay
#

I mean these are

#

they only do manual testing

#

a monkey can do that

too bad lawdy is no longer here, you could have given her a job

she pissed me off and then left on her own

proud jay

she got a strike and somehow finally had the self realizatoin that she should leavee

summer cedar
#

Wait, seriously? How did she piss you off?

proud jay
#

she was really going off the rails that last day though

empty dune
#

yeah

summer cedar
#

Huh.

#

Interesting.

empty dune
summer cedar
#

Damn. I just pegged her as an eccentric personality that's actually just okay.

#

Turns out... well...

empty dune
#

same, i thought she was just a little weird but fine

#

until she told me she'd gun fuck me cause i said adults can buy cake anytime they want

#

i dont take kindly to rape jokes

unborn lotus
#

What was the joke?

empty dune
#

idk if it was a joke or not but saying you'd fuck someone at gunpoint after they said a harmless thing is not cool

I started watching gantz phase 2

#

But it's just the Buddhist temple arc, which is supposed to be a phase 1 mission

#

Phase 2 is that weird yokai alien thing

timber viper
#

i recall a stupid anime from my childhood that you'd like but cant remember the name

timber viper
#

it had a MC girl based on your tastes

errant raven
#

Theres an old anime mc my foster dad called me

#

Tomoki

#

Blue hair and shit

#

Cant find the anime hes in

tribal kraken
errant raven
#

That's supposed to be the alien for phase 2 in gantz, the movie did that mission. I'd rather see it in the anime form tho.

Tenka really does give Esdeath a run for her money tho

timber viper
#

i didnt finish esdeath's anime btw

#

first 3 eps or so, when i was going to high school

errant raven
#

Kyouka does too

#

You should finish it

timber viper
#

i watched 2 eps of it only, but finished the manga

errant raven
#

Akame is the main character

timber viper
#

kyouka > esdeath

errant raven
#

It's pretty sad that I dont even remember the dudes name in akame ga kill

#

I do remember bulat tho, he was a badass

summer cedar

I used it some 10+ years ago.

Makima is a pretty good competitor in the degen waifu competition

Shes rich, she wears a suit, in a high position of power, and can call me her pet anyday

#

I dont read manga

summer cedar
#

@proud jay I have a programming question.
My little tyke of a student keeps saying, "Garbage sale," for, "Garage sale."
Considering that the attic from which the said items are procured might as well be filled with garbage, should I program the student to continue saying 'Garbage' for 'Garage', or should I include a conditional loop to confirm that the attic's contents are in fact 'garbage'?

errant raven
#

The only manga I ever read was kingdomhearts 2's little manga phase

#

And a romance manga, some chick had red hair and tan school outfit with a plaided short skirt

summer cedar
# proud jay lol what

Psychological programming advice.
To let the student say Garbage for Garage or not.

#

We can program it with Verse.

proud jay
#

clearly you need to program garage

#

since it exists outside of the context of sales too

errant raven
#

And still on the dominant side

summer cedar
#

Okay, but what shall I do with the garbage output?
I doubt he can pronounce recycle properly.

proud jay
#

anyone have some taxes I can do?

summer cedar
#

Me, but I can't share my figures.

You can make shit up.

so you say it's time for more bullying right

timber viper
#

yes

timber viper
errant raven
timber viper
proud jay
#

there's a difference between weeb and degenerate

A high ranking degen such as myself cant be inflicted by bullying

depending on the gender i guess you might even enjoy it

errant raven

#

is that a new record for you?

errant raven
#

Yeah, in a sense

#

Shortest relationship achieved

timber viper
proud jay

tbh I'm impressed you ever had a relationship

errant raven
#

I was different before my mental health started depleting

#

I actually could function normally and took extreme good care of myself daily

summer cedar
#

😍

proud jay
#

I bet ambulance has some disgusting thoughts about it too though

summer cedar
#

That's a red panda, right?

errant raven
#

What kind of disgusting thoughts could I have about red pandas

summer cedar
#

Can we roast it?

errant raven
#

They're too pure

summer cedar
#

Let me ask CoPilot.

proud jay
#

computer says no

errant raven
#

It's just a vegan propaganda ai

summer cedar
#

CoPilot doesn't like the question sadly.

#

Oh wait, it did answer the question with links.

#

Dang, it's illegal.

#

Let's ask China.

proud jay
#

I guess maybe animals that eat bamboo are just of low nutritional value themselves idk

summer cedar
#

No; jobless cuteness lovers made them protected species, to protect them from gastro-pioneers like us.

errant raven
#

You can legally eat endangered species if you're in a real survival situation

#

So just go get lost where they live

summer cedar
#

Indie dev goal - earn enough money to buy a red panda and cooking oil.

#

Disclaimer: This may or may not be true.

#

And the other can be stolen from Laura.

timber viper
#

lmao

errant raven
#

For best results use canola oil

proud jay
#

idk if true

errant raven
#

Neutral flavor, wont effect the taste of the meat

summer cedar
#

But they can come get yours. πŸ˜„

summer cedar
#

Holy crap. I googled Panda meat for the heck of it.

#

The results are.... a bit creepy.

#

That would be okay. But, there's pictures of actual panda meat and it's... creepy is the best way to say it.

proud jay
#

why eat cow but no eat panda

#

they're both black and white

errant raven
#

Some cows are tan, brown, or reddish

proud jay
#

some pandas are red too

errant raven
#

Pandas probably dont taste good at all tho

proud jay
#

how do you know

#

are you fat shaming them?

#

or do you hate them cause they're chinese, you racist

errant raven
#

Cus of what they eat

#

And the way their stomach works

proud jay
#

the greek king?

#

inb4 raindust made it and you're just roasting him

summer cedar
#

Oh yeah, I haven't heard about Ixion in a while.

#

It looks nice on YT, but actual gameplay might be a bit boring.

#

It's one of 'those' games, fun to watch, boring to play.

proud jay
#

looks boring to watch to me as well to be fair

summer cedar
#

There is another game whose name I have forgot.
You basically mine asteroids and prepare your defence fleet, but the space physics are realistic - Newtonian physics or whatever. You've to constantly defend Earth from alien strikes.

#

It's similar to Ixion, but without the interior construction. All the building is on the outside of the hull.

#

That looked nice, but was a pain to play.

#

Big Ambitions just got updated.

#

New businesses, rivalries, sabotage, new UI.

errant raven
#

@timber viper terra formars is kinda.. shit ngl

timber viper
#

i didnt watch it

#

im watching konosuba

errant raven

#

I'm watching elven lied now. Seems good

fleet tangle

It's pretty fucked up

Palworld is accusing Tencent of ripping it off.

#

🀣

errant raven
#

Wdym

summer cedar
#

and other Chinese companies, too.

errant raven
#

Isnt Tencent known for ripping ideas

#

And buying up stocks of alot of companies

summer cedar
#

Yep. The point though is that Palworld is pointing fingers at others, considering where its 'inspiraton' comes from.

errant raven
proud jay
#

doesn't tencent own half the game industry

errant raven
#

Pokemon took from dragon quest, no one bitched when that happened

proud jay
#

Gotta keep up the effort to maintain their image.

#

Those adults were the kids when the game came out

summer cedar
#

That reminds me of that one dude.
He crossed into Canada by accident and was hounded by the border patrol dogs, if I remember right.

#

He was hunting snow pokemon, or something in Pokemon Go.

errant raven
#

Pokemon go is garbage

summer cedar
#

It's many players didn't feel that way, especially if they got themselves arrested with it.

#

I had a student who was stunned by a dude leaping out of the bushes one night, when she was on her way home.

#

She thought he was going to attack her, but he was apparently shocked by a pokemon he found in the bushes.

#

🀣

errant raven
#

You see them pop up on the screen, and you tap their icon

#

You dont physically look under a fucking rock or in a bush for one

#

And they only spawn if you're moving around. Which sucks

summer cedar
#

That's where he was. People took the game very seriously.

#

Heck, the local police had to make some special rules for it in some countries.

#

I forget in which country they found dudes looking in sewers.

errant raven
#

Why

proud jay
#

cause they were thirsty

errant raven
#

They spawn on a google maps map, not in physical location.

#

People are braindead

proud jay
#

so are you tbh

errant raven
#

I'd consider pokemon go just for the holiday event alternative versions of pokemon. If they allowed them to be used in other pokemon games too

errant raven
#

I'm dumb, but the earth is round and the sun and moon are real. Big difference from them

proud jay
#

you dumb dumb, it's not round

#

it's an oblate spheroid

errant raven

Sounds round to me

anyone have rider? mine expired but idk if i should pay rider per month.. is it worth it?

#

pls be honest =x

proud jay
#

no one has Rider, it's a wonder they're not bankrupt

proud jay
#

the question is is it worth it to you

cursive crypt
#

If you use it, sell a kidney, continue

errant raven
#

What is rider

cursive crypt
#

Coding is not for peasants

#

You need money

errant raven
#

Dain ironfoot, another victim of race swapping

pale scarab
#

but rider is sooooooooooooooooooooooooooo smooth

#

and non laggy and non buggy

errant raven
#

Maybe stop paying for a ide and pay for a better system

proud jay
errant raven
#

According to todd howard, it is.

errant raven
#

Rider was meant for speed

#

Still, jetbrains isnt worth shit

#

Sublime is the best and everyone knows it

soft night
#

this might have being in zombies vs aliens

proud jay
#

more like intellisense and refactoring

#

more like user speed maybe

errant raven
#

Its jetbrains, there is no selling factor

proud jay
#

but anyone that calls the software fast is a liar

errant raven
#

I'd rather use the built in python ide or note pad than use their products again

unreal ether
#

Rider was lightning fast initially for me, then it started to slow

soft night
#

almost there

empty dune
#

ahh, what went wrong?

soft night
empty dune
#

this is true, ixion has zero replayability

#

there's two endings?

#

TIL

#

i mainly liked the game for its presentation tbh, the cutscenes and atmosphere felt great the first time i experienced it

errant raven
#

My seedlings that are germinating, their soils temp is between 33-44Β°c. I think I'm bad at growing peppers

empty dune
#

oh yeah thats there

#

also there scope of the writing was waaaay too broad for such a tiny game

proud jay
#

see I knew it was the greek king, just the roman prequel

empty dune
#

star trek made an entire fandom out of that XD

#

i also thought the game wasnt that hard tbh

#

a lot of the initial negative reviews was

#

"this game is too hard"

#

it wasnt, the hull bleed was annoying but easy to counter

#

yeah, it doesnt even randomise the POI

#

blow up everything? refresh my memory

she works in the shadows

Yeah, but the threshold is probably high?

why don't you try

I did. Which is why I am asking. I thought the bot would say something after 3 repeat posts.

must be nice not having to deal with mosquitoes the moment you open the window

proud jay

not yet

#

my gf flips out over it though

#

but she's not home so who cares

#

also, we have these musquito screens

#

not on the big window though

empty dune
#

seriously, we are great at killing off species, we kill a dozen everyday. why have we failed at killing the one species we really REALLY tried to kill??

#

like our track record as humans is extraordinary at wiping out species

#

why did fucking mosquitoes defeat us

proud jay
#

they didn't really though

#

we could easily exterminate if we wanted to

#

there's a plan to do that in africa btw, to combat malaria

#

through genetic modification

#

but there's ethics to consider

#

so maybe they will never do it

and potential ecological impact

Caught 3 cod on one hook. A little tiny one got the bait first, then a slight bigger one got the tiny one and yup.. you guessed it the bigger of the 3 tried to much the others.

@empty dune Did you know scientists have actually introduced mosquitoes into the eco-system in some places?

empty dune
#

traitors

#

execute them

summer cedar
#

They were modified with Fallout laser guns to eliminate other undesirable mutants.

#

But yeah, we can kill them, but we just don't.

#

I think they are also required for some ecological reason, but I forget and I am too lazy to google it.

#

Let me load Path of Exile instead. Lots of mosquitoes to kill there.

celest musk
#

they can't produce offspring or smth, that was the plan

empty dune
#

making jurrasic park into a reality does not count as an ecological reason

celest musk
#

so that they "mate" with normal ones and so the population shrinks

summer cedar
#

That and I think there was also some modified mosquito that would reduce the occurrence of a disease or something.

#

Yeah, well, it's a trendy thing to introduce CRISPR mosquitoes into the system.

empty dune
#

id like to crisp some mosquitoes alright

summer cedar
#

Now, that I'll google for kicks.

summer cedar
#

Umm... Raindust.

At the risk of never looking at the internet ever again, you might want to google 'kunga cake'.

i play D4 these days because I have free game pass sub

its a good game to turn off your brain and spam A on controller

*Diablo2, to underline

timber viper
cursive crypt
#

No idea, I know some ppl playing it, just the online-only aspect was lost on me.

#

I recall it had some monster of a skill graph too πŸ€”

summer cedar
#

Path of Exile is basically based off of Diablo and is free to play.

#

Except, people usually spend $20 on getting extra and item-specific stash tabs at least.

#

People like me have spent a bit more than that on cute pets.

#

But, no, you don't need to pay anything to play forever.

the health pool

cursive crypt

red-blue one

summer cedar
#

🀣

cursive crypt
#

What other ball you are thinking of you perv

summer cedar
#

I was looking at the actual character.

#

The red blood is my actual health point pool.
The magic blue energy over it is my energy shield.

cursive crypt
#

Ah, okay, they have vertical split on that.

summer cedar
#

Oh, it's not vertically split.

cursive crypt
#

Better than third ball, no place for it.

summer cedar
#

The coverage increases as you get more ES.

#

You can have one bright blue glass ball at the end, if you wish.

#

Or just a swollen deep red one.

cursive crypt
#

Ye, ratio

summer cedar
#

OR, you can have just a bit of ES and your red ball will look like it's in an eclipse.

#

The top half of the entire skill tree. ^

cursive crypt
#

I see. They got butthurt from Path of Exile

summer cedar
#

The little circle you see at the mid-bottom is the ascendancy skill tree.

cursive crypt
#

Do you press that "shop" and "info" buttons?

summer cedar
#

If I want to spend money on getting new balls, yes.

cursive crypt
#

No, thanks.

summer cedar
#

This is the Atlas Skill Tree, which modifies the maps you run at end-game.

#

Uh, I can't post the image.

cursive crypt
#

They just run some gacha strategies here.

summer cedar
#

I think Quinn hates me.

#

Anyway, there're like three skill trees altogether for now.

#

Ah, no. There's no gacha strategy.

#

The shop is entirely cosmetics. It doesn't add to your gameplay the least bit.

cursive crypt
#

Sure the dont try to hook you up.

summer cedar
#

No, they don't.

cursive crypt
#

lol

summer cedar
#

You're never directed there during the entire campaign.

#

The only ones who bother going there are long-time players.

#

If you want free MTX, you can watch their Twitch streams and you get one or two cosmetics before each league begins.

#

I have like 8 of those that way.

#

I think I played for four years before actually spending anything.

cursive crypt
#

I see... they clear as tears.

summer cedar
#

No, they've had their controversies, but not over cash shops.

#

It was over preference given to streamers during league launches.

cursive crypt
#

Anyway, that huge ass skill tree is another minus to me.

summer cedar
#

And the other one I know about was when Tencent invested in the company two years ago, I think.

#

But, the New Zealand devs basically give Tencent what they want on the Chinese version of the game.
Our international version is China-free basically.

#

There's just one small problem.

cursive crypt
#

Make sense, it is a major market for them.

summer cedar
#

The Chinese players like playing with us, too. πŸ˜„

summer cedar
#

You can just highlight the skill nodes you want.

cursive crypt
#

I might touch, out of nostalgia, some rework on D2 but I haven't searched whether there is one.

summer cedar
#

D2 Resurrected is your best bet, straight from Blizz.

cursive crypt
#

That last does not sound too good somewhat.

#

Will check tho

summer cedar
#

It's fine. It's D2 with some quality of life features.

#

They remastered it for modern computers, so it runs better too.

cursive crypt
#

Dont tell me is online only and has a shop in it too.

summer cedar
#

D2 Res? No.

#

It's got BOTH.

#

You can play offline as original D2.

#

OR you can play Ladder online.

#

BUT, you cannot freely transfer your character from one mode to the next.
So, online character is online. Offline character is offline.

@empty dune When are you voting?

I believe ChatGPT is also account-less now.

But you can also see the chatbox no?

#

Type into it directly. Ignore the login.

#

Whaaa?

#

Are you secretly from Russi Korea?

#

No, they announced an internationally free version 2 weeks ago.

#

It's for everyone, except mutants who are anathema to the God Emperor of Man.

#

That's weird.

#

Still the same?

#

Yeah, I saw that. I was hoping the link from my browser would work for you.

#

πŸ™

#

Yeah, I meant the URL straight from my browser with the appropriate prayers.

#

Ok, if you try to open the link from an incognito window, do you get the same result? I am wondering if cache is screwing something up.

#

That's seriously wonky. I googled it and it's been free for everyone since April 1. πŸ€”

#

CONSPIRACY!!!!!

#

Or you two are secret agents of the red pandas.

#

I wish.

#

Ah, free version of ChatGPT was last updated on January, 2022. So, it's basically missing almost one and a half years of shit posts.

#

CoPilot is probably more reliable.

#

It was updated last month. Yep, definitely better.

summer cedar
#

Huh... this is interesting.

#

I can't open the image links generated by CoPilot in Google Chrome.

#

The bing URLs don't open. They can be accessed in Edge.

celest musk
#

wonder if we can see that "old" chatgpt model as one of the few pure ones

#

anything after that will be infested with AI generated content as learning material

summer cedar
#

@trail ore Have you used Gemini?

#

It's pretty fast.

#

Way faster than its previous identity, Bard.

#

Can't beat Google's world-spanning server farms.

#

Someone had written an article a while back, saying that if Google had been as fast as OpenAI, they'd have dominated the AI scene before anyone could even begin, owing to their robust server infrastructure worldwide.

#

And Google wanted to, but their management decided to focus on other things - I forget what exactly, now - instead of AI and they lagged behind.

#

I am selling stuff from my Steam Inventory.

#

Those cards stack up some nice cash over time.

rare mauve
#

selling generated virtual trading cards to humans who actually want to collect these things... thank goodness for people with questionable mental states

summer cedar
#

πŸ˜„

#

Should I tell you about selling FOILs?

#

Apparently, the foil trading cards are RARER and therefore, sell for MUCH MORE on Steam.

#

I just listed two of my HIGHEST ever offers. If they pan out, then I can probably buy a AAA title with the proceeds, or even a couple of cheaper games.

rare mauve
#

praise be the god of gaben

summer cedar
#

I was dumbstruck, too. I had never seen any kind of value like this before.

#

Usually, I'd list several cards for Rs.3/- each; that's 1/20th or less of a US dollar.

#

This foil stuff sells for more than $7 each, assuming there's a buyer, but there seem to be from the sales charts.

celest musk
#

yea, look at the charts, put it in for what it sold on average in the last days and wait a couple days

#

i don't understand why people even pay a $1 for a random CS:GO lootbox

#

sad world we live in

summer cedar
#

I have bought two games so far with Steam card sales proceeds. πŸ˜„

#

🀣

#

Just sold one. As I was listing other stuff too.

#

Sold three. Market is active tonight.

#

Someone's giving me quite a bit of money (for Steam) tonight.

#

I was about to stop listing the hundreds of cards I have, owing to finger fatigue, but given the cash flowing in - let's list on!!!

#

πŸŽ†

#

Halfway to a dollar.

#

Dang.

#

That gets my hopes up.

#

Hopefully, someone buys my foils. πŸ˜„

#

Hell yes.

#

I wish there was an automated way to list my inventory for sale on Steam.

#

Clicky, clicky, clicky, clicky, clicky.

rare mauve
#

rich people don't do gruntwork. hire someone to list them for sale for you, and then all you have to do to earn more cards is buy new games from the proceeds. infinite money hack

you can avoid that conundrum by only working on tools for niche things that epic will never invest any effort into, like improving basic and broken features that everyone and their dog wishes this engine had

I was actually amazed at some of the fixes in 5.4

celest musk

like?

#

is 5.4 out yet? or still preview?

brittle holly
#

They actually fixed the Cooldown decorator in BTs, and changing a GC rest collection at runtime no longer results in insta-crash

celest musk

haven't even noticed that they are broken πŸ˜„

#

but that may explain some things...

brittle holly

Yeah, surprised epic has

Ofc now there’s other things that are causing crashes but eh

Hopefully in 5.4 proper but πŸ€·β€β™‚οΈ

I'll have hopes for 5.6

But, 5.666 will definitely be devilish.

i think newk said it best: 5.27 is the promised land we are all journeying towards

it's all a struggle to get there and all fall of the empire after that

but while we're there

the last releases are pretty good imho

Check out the modded comparison and decide how you want to set your game up. The mod list is available, too, I think.

#

I personally would choose another ENB. I do enjoy Bethesda's colour choices minus the stupid colour filter they always overlay above everything else. A less drastic ENB might be better in that case.

cursive crypt

I recall a dude making something similar to ultra graphics mod list for Skyrim. Then he posted it as a mod list on Nexus.
Frankly, it was not bad, but f it, I did a better one and with more stuff in it. Ofc, took me two weeks.

That sounds really easy to fix

Somewhat. Some of these, you will have to merge by hand tho.

Vortex handles the load order too, these days.

And fixes duplicates and whatnot.

cursive crypt
#

Ask me how many hours I did merged patches.

#

Not really, or not in the control you want to.

errant raven
#

Skyrims damage and enemy health stuff is not balanced at all

cursive crypt
#

An example is, you install some mod making better blood textures, but then there is another mod which touches the sound of the hits. Both touch the same record and is up to you decide whether you want to keep the one, or the other, or to choose how to combine them.

errant raven
#

Why make them separate mods in the first place if people know this

cursive crypt
#

If you are the same author of these two mods, ye, maybe not good idea.

Why isnt it a good idea

Cant wait to debug some mods to play a game that got boring after the 60th playthrough

A lot of body builders and especially the ones competing are terribly unhealthy, more than an average person

A large majority of them end up with heart related issues, from coronary artery disease (from the garbage they are eating to intentionally gain weight) to just all the strain on the heart. All their excess muscle requires blood/oxygen, so even at rest their hearts have to pump like maniacs

#

(not in this specific case just saying in general, for the muscle part you have to be on steroids to gain unhealthy amount of muscle)

cursive crypt
# queen isle could you make it?

Actually this is just a stupid trap post. Excluding the dumb username, 15000 calories are 15kcal. Average human eats 2000kcal. Which means you get to eat almost nothing for the day.
