I didnt like how MK1 game put all the ninjas on the same team
its more interesting when Shirai Ryu and Lin Kuei got beef
probably why MK11 sold better, everyone wants Scorpion vs Sub Zero
they could honestly make an MK game with all ninjas and it would probably win lol
it could be like Ghost of Tsushima but with MK ninjas
I doubt Paramount browns will gift WB money for games tho 🙁
guess who owns paramount
2.8bil to get out of a contract... that coulda made some great games
political correct games or propaganda games ?
Your Mom
is a nice lady
I hope so.

Of course Trumps like "We are going to avenge their deaths"
Like 3 of them?
Apparently
But there might be more not reported yet
As familys could have yet to be notified
Good morning! 🌞 ☕
What up
Ground news?
Sandy news.
Seems the crazy wankers are still going crazy.
Hit the UK airbase, the country that had denied the US launching rights from its base.
Very logical to attack the countries that are supporting you.
Oh. Hezbollah joined the fray?
--- Iranian-American lawmaker questions Trump’s intentions ---
And the next Americans to be deported will be... 💡
Oh, what's the latest from Mein Farter?
he wants your first born
And Pete Hegseth will become Supreme Leader Petullah Hegmeni?
They are taking down as many of the regime as possible so the Iranian people can do the rest.
Doubt it
Saw something about him maybe getting yelled at by Trump
'Cuz I remember him 'delegating' the administration of Venemargo to Marco Rubio.
So, someone has to be 'rewarded' with Iramargo, too.
This is possible AI though
Might have been yelled at because of that whole school thing.
It's still in the news and the Iran-self-bombing is not gaining traction..... yet.
😄 Picture's probably a lie though, yeah.
Trump doesn't yell at people in public.
He does flip off the public, yes, but only from a distance.
I mean kinda did Zelensky
Kind of. But he didn't use the F word with him in public.
I think he did in private, later on.
Well shit
--- Barring any unforeseen changes, the stable release of Unreal Engine 5.8 is currently projected for mid-June 2026. ---
Rumours are running rampant - in all of two web articles.
UE 5.8 in June 2026, possibly.
Based on previous time lines checks out
🤔 I wonder if Anthropic's Claude will become integrated into UE by default, over time.
Unraude!
Claudreal!
See my governments new thing? https://x.com/Tablesalt13/status/2028284895303200948?s=20
Fuck me
Are they legalising euthanasia?
So, like Switzerland then?
We have medical assistance in dying
They harvest our organs often when we do it too
What medical assistance in dying is, who is eligible, how to make a request, the process, and who can provide medical assistance in dying.
10/10 country
To be honest, I am not entirely against it, so long as it is completely voluntary.
Well as you see
He was offered it as an option because he's poor
So 🤷
Would you rather be poor or die
It's sad, but I am not surprised.
They also offer you it if you have chronic illnesses
There's going to be a lot of people who just won't be able to adapt to our post-AI revolution.
Sad, but understandable.
But, Lucifer, what is the result of not being able to adapt?
Put them on welfare lol
You end up poor.
Why offer them death
Many will not accept welfare. It's against our self-esteem.
Remember that a lot of people have already made their careers, are successful, and base their pride on it.
Hamsters on wheels.
Sounds made up
Given the Pentagon kicked Anthropic out 'officially', it's a good idea though.
Sounds conservative. 😄
But yeah, I get it. Bloody sad though.
Ngl nothing wrong with taking pride in your work
If you can't enjoy it why would anyone else
Then, there's also people who are depressed from reading the news.
Their hero complex can't change the world for the better, so, gotta go.
I think one of the best rules for this system would be to limit applicants to over the age of 40.
You have to succeed/suffer in life until then, at least.
That gives people the time to mature and have a proper personality, at least.
There was a family that lost a 17 year old few years ago that had mixed feelings on it mom wanted it dad didn't.
Kid ended up just dying to the bone cancer but still.
Ah. But, aren't medical conditions already covered for that under older laws?
They were fighting to try to get it extended to mature young adults
So anyone under 18 is special exception
Both parents have to agree
IIRC
Yeah. Honestly, I think voluntary departure is something every country should legalise, with strict rules.
Nvm it's not available to kids at all
So that kid was basically left to suffer
Sub 18
Simply travelling to other countries to avail of the facility, is stupid.
So the mother was trying to fight for changes
However, advocacy groups like Dying With Dignity Canada argue that access should be extended to competent minors aged 12 and older, based on capacity rather than age. Parliament has not yet changed the law, and no federal policy currently allows MAID for minors under 18.
Deport them, please.
Lol
They can advocate in Tehran.
Like a 12 year old would know what they want
US Embassy in Kuwait hit. Either that, or someone lit a bonfire over there for kicks. Meanwhile, Kermanshah airport in Iran is burning.
This war is so military-focused that it is avoiding military targets. Precision strikes ftw.
Good ole Sega
Uh... this makes for great haunted house projects, you know.
--- US F-15 reportedly crashed in Kuwait. No proof yet. ---
--- Attacks on Jordan's Aqaba costal city. ---
Berserkers are spraying and praying.
Mein Farter reportedly predicts a 4-week operation.
--- Iraqi air defences are also confronting missiles and drones that tried to target the Erbil International Airport. --- Meanwhile, Israel.
--- Chinese national killed in Iran: Foreign Ministry ---
All operations at ARAMCO's Ras Tannoura refinery in Saudi Arabia have been suspended
Rip
10% so far it seems
Will only get worse
natural gas is up 25%
US already Ahwaz oil pipeline so its probably retaliation
very happy that my house heats with electricity and has solar panels and I have an electric car 🙏
--- Kuwait’s Defense Ministry says “several” US warplanes have crashed in the country, all the crew survived. ---
friendly fire hey are chasing drones aa shoots them instead of drones lol
israel also keeping the momentum going bombing lebanon
So much for a 'short operation'.
extended leave
Come, Lucifer! We must open the Strait of Hormuz.
Ready the Maple Lancers.
We shall ride forth across the ocean with mighty steeds and syrupy pancakes!
I wonder what china is gonna do
Iran was kinda their middle east proxy
with iran and venezuela their oils supply is a bit fucked
Probably export dysfunctional J-something missiles to them, and let them spray and pray some more.
China always finds a way
Yeah, 70% of China's oil reportedly comes from the Strait of Hormuz.
30% of that from Iran.
20% of the world supply goes through there
Lol
United States Of Israel place all chips on that Iran would begin a revolution and start civil war

Cojject. Now, everyone's just parked their jallopies on either side of the Strait.
We can now only bank on the Canadian Maple Lancers to save the day.
FORTH EORLINGAS!
and maple meth
That's for when we fail. 😛
How else will we stay awake for a week straight
Can maple meth fuel car engines though?
https://www.aljazeera.com/news/liveblog/2026/3/2/us-israel-attack-iran-live - I just watch this space.
I'm sure with enough mix 😂
yeah but I mean the historical context
Oh yeah. But how much value does history carry when Mein Farter is calling the shots?
Bring it back to 79
Plus, if you strap a reindeer to the car, it has eco-friendly locomotion.
Bring back the Shah
Take it down a notch mossad
America: invades country, Iran: kills 3 US soldiers, America: we will avenge our fallen soldier with devastating blows
The cycle of violence.
or you know, a democratically elected leader, like before the shah
they can elect Trump as president of Iran maybe
I would like to nominate the Padishah Candidate Freshullah Forkbin Calamari to the seat of Supreme Poobah of Persia.
can't wait for him to declare state of emergency to cancel midterms
which he was gonna lose bigly
he can be the new president of israel when it disolves
Then go around arresting all those who vote not for him
and throw away any ballets by african americans
Wouldn't be the first time
About time
we can only dream of living under a leader that had the great honor of receiving a FIFA peace prize
Don't forget the Coal Prize.
what is up with this in uae
I think they're called helicopters and planes
should've invested in military ETF 😔
Never too late
--- All crew members survived. --- All US fighter pilots ejected safely (including allied ones).
Buy military stock
Kuwait engaging S&R.
Buy AI stock related to military
Yup
hamas tunnel underneath
Because they are ethical people
Iran has started bombing everyone
Not the best time to be attending school.
not like brits aren't hunting down drones like last time
They drank a berserker potion.
Well how else will they become the next jihadis
+30% ASPD and Nutjobbiness +50%.
Well they have the missiles, might as well use them while they can!
Radicalize them while they are young. Then they are yours for life.
Which may not be too long.
that supreme leader got cold feet in 2003 unlike kim
israel could have been a radioactive wasteland and it would have become truly a holy place
You mean the fatwa to ban nukes?
All so they can oppress their people 🙂
I have three very good candidates. I won't name them now. Let's finish the job first
besides one in exile they keep pumping wonder who are the other two
marco rubio and don jr
this from recent events ?
--- Amazon cloud services in Bahrain, UAE disrupted
Amazon’s cloud division says that its data centers in Bahrain and the UAE were experiencing power and connectivity problems, amid Iran’s retaliatory strikes ---
More importantly, cloud p0rn disrupted.
Please back up all your seedy materials and hide them under your physical pillows, along with your stockpiled RAM sticks.
--- US President Donald Trump has promised to keep striking Iran until "all objectives" have been achieved. ---
Mein Farter speaks.
Khatam Al-Anbiyaa Central HQ confirmed the downing of an American F-15 fighter jet by Iranian air defenses on the Kuwait-Iraqi border
so the plane from last night
I think the AWS disruption is casus belli for war, though.
Screw the oil and stuff.
Not being able to access our web p0rn is criminal.
Bezos gonna send in his penis rocket troops
Blue Troopers.
Is Alireza Arafi also taken out?
well depends musk plans data servers in space
He's part of the new triumvirate. Still alive, I think.
Musk-Bezos not friends.
uae Ras Al Khaimah
Musk.... is Musky.
@mild gust Sorry, I just read the latest report.
You're right.
He's suspected to have died in an airstrike.
Damn
I guess the job proved too much for him.
Speedy
Pretty much
well they already adopted us shades with starlink for guidance like russia
Meanwhile, in Pakistan....
AND their people are still protesting Khamenei's death in the streets.
i bet there would be a ceasfire this month with the talibans guess i will be wrong
That's difficult. Pashtuns respect strength. Pakistan's leadership demonstrates stupidity. They started 3-front wars (2 in their own nation).
No Pashtun will agree to lay down his arms for THAT.
Should have waited till april
They couldn't. I understand why Failed Marshall Munir did what he did. His troops needed to be quickly free to go to Gaza, remember?
That's Pakistan's price of admission into the Board of Peace.
So, they had to finish their fights FAST.
so no ceasefire with the taliban this month ?
Not this month, I think. Not for the next 6.
Unless Pakistan drops a nuke on their heads, or M00rica steps in.
They have some grudging respect for M00rican boots.
considering trump the peacemaker ending yet another war
What a good guy
In Afghanistan, not without boots on the ground. Pashtuns will not respect air bombings.
How selfless of him to help others with their issues
Yeah, but I doubt he will send anything to aid Pakistan anytime soon.
He's over-extending his forces.
lol taliban have been gathering quite a lot of "boots" for the past 40 years 😂
That's Pashtun culture. The strong rule. The strong speak. Everything else is trash.
i would have put money it was china's turn
It was supposed to be. Sadly, Pakistan screwed China.
They lost a lot of their people in Pakistan to security threats, 🤣 , and withdrew their people.
Otherwise, it would indeed have been China's lot to deal with the Taliban.
i think if india/pakistan start another conflict right about now would be awesome for the region
We are already engaging in Operation Sindoor.
Another terror cell was destroyed two weeks ago, I think.
But, no, we won't engage them fully. No need. They have three wars ongoing already.
Pakistani Lahore leadership is...... uh, stupid to put it kindly.
Wonder why
Oh aye. Why indeed.
Meow 🐱
You posted this yesterday though.
It's not confirmed yet, I believe.
Not them admitting?
Only that FB post is there.
I translated the text. If it's authentic, then yes.
But, no confirmation yet.
Yep.
Two more drones intercepted at Ras Tanura refinery.
Debris started a fire. 🤣
You are screwed if you intercept, you are screwed if you don't.
here is the kill list https://polymarket.com/event/who-will-be-next-supreme-leader-of-iran-515
the ones with best odds don;t last long 😂
If you are right, then Pakistan hasn't rebuilt its air defences after we destroyed them.
Otherwise, no way these dudes could hit the Pak's Nur Khan airbase AGAIN.
https://www.airandspaceforces.com/article/building-momentum-in-afghanistan/#:~:text=The Afghan air arm is,Air)%20mission%20hit%20its%20stride.
USAF advisors work with everyone from line pilots to the Afghan Defense Ministry in the long war again
And if THAT's true, Pak's leadership is very wise to have started new wars already.
I agree. I don't think M00rica left fighter jets in Afghanistan during its withdrawal.
Helicopters, yes.
But helis alone wouldn't be able to just march over to an airbase and level it without casualties.
The A-29 Super Tucano is a Brazilian turboprop light attack and advanced training aircraft developed by Embraer
I mean, it's a Pakistani air base, but still....
So they likely got some of those around
It is operated by 22 air forces worldwide, including Brazil, the United States (for training and special operations), Nigeria, Afghanistan, and Paraguay.
They'd do without air defences to contend with.
That's not 22 but okay
But, the dumbest thing is WHY Pakistanis are protesting Khamenei's killing in Karachi.
AND getting themselves killed.
Okay there actually is 22 countries that use it
I am not surprised. Countries that can't afford expensive tech are buying up old stock.
India is sending its old Jaguars to.... one of the small countries.
--- 131 cities in the country have been affected by the US-Israeli attacks. ---
That includes Iran's spray-and-pray.
100,000 responders from the Red Cross on the ground.
4 million volunteers on standby around the world.
your comparing hypersonics to hamas pipe rockets lol ?
No. That's the total damage so far.
from august 2021 The Taliban now has access to $85 billion worth of US military equipment
Israel's targetting Hezbollah's leadership now.
No confirmation about the new Iranian triumvirate yet.
Rip
Israel leadership hiding in Cyprus or Greece ?
that ICC warrant is very symbolic 😁
@mild gust France’s Foreign Minister Jean-Noel Barrot says Israeli and US “unilateral” attacks in Iran should have been debated in the collective bodies set up for this exact purpose, such as the United Nations. ---
What's this UN thing? 🤔
sounds like people that were not invited to the board of peace
ah, like the geek squad then. left out of prom.
Oh so they can talk about it for another 40+ years?
I guess.
--- The International Atomic Energy Agency has no indication that Israeli and US attacks on Iran have hit any nuclear facilities, but it has not been able to reach Iran’s nuclear authorities, its chief Rafael Grossi has told the agency’s Board of Governors. ---
You might have been right about the leadership dying again, Lucifer.
Israel might have hit the government building - the new one.
Rip
didn't he say after the last bombings they destroyed everything and it would take them many years to get back up to speed
just contradicting himself once again
Yes, but my understanding is he dropped that excuse. Mein Farter's last justification was that Iran helped Joe Biden win the election against him.
I don't know if he changed excuses again thereafter.
Its for when you have ones of those days where you feel useless you can think of UN and be cherfull there is someone more useless than yourself.
So UN = Ice cream?
exactly
Hey man they get to stand there in places like Africa and watch atrocities only to report them.
I am eating delicious vanilla ice cream right now. 🍨
John Oliver's latest episode released on YT 1 hour ago.
It's about totally normal life in America with police body cameras.
well they didn't interfere that well, cause those allegations were from the 2024 elections which he won
They got f pretty bad in Gaza idk who were the idiotic volunteers there
Sir, we don't care about truth in m00rica.
The piles of supplies that didn't make it to gaza is insane
--- Ras Tanura refinery closed ---
Yeah the blockades by Israel ...
Everything is recorded bro, just cause Israel hates UN be glad you have seat at the table
TWO US fighter jets confirmed downed with evidence.
Kuwait?
Kuwait ministry hasn't declared how many more were also destroyed.
Yeah, many aircraft have been downed since morning, according to them.
I saw one pilot got rescued by locals
Yes. The first F-15E had two pilots. Both rescued.
The second one had one pilot. Rescued.
Nice
There have been other aircraft downed. But, no details yet.
All crew members have been rescued so far.
What model were the fighter jets does it say??
Seems Iran's starting another spraying session.
Yeah, no way m00rica is selling that or the Raptor to allies at the moment.
F-15EX is an economical powerhouse.
The F-15E is operated by the U.S. Air Force, Royal Saudi Air Force, Israeli Air Force, and Republic of Korea Air Force.
I loved the article about its engineering. They reduced the cost of operations on it like crazy.
any war you send the junk first
--- France is “ready” to defend Gulf countries and Jordan against Iran if necessary, Foreign Minister Jean-Noel Barrot says. --- Oh crap.
israel is the new nazi germany it seems i guess you don't learn
can't argue with a nazi
you just washed your holocaust away with the genocide in gaza and the world knows it
@median wraith Aloha! 👋 Don't run away. 😛
Probably think I.C.E. is gestapo
Oh man
I thought this was about be polite and non politics in here
Impossible these days
Everything is political
every jew seems delusional about the genocide and just says hamas propaganda lmao
You can ignore them. They have been at it for two days-ish.
can't help myself this guy is like a paramount movie
@proud jay Quicky NATO question. If France 'defends' Jordan, does that trigger any NATO clauses and bring the other EU countries into it? Or am I right in thinking it doesn't and France acts independently?
nato base outside nato country is fair game
Commercial warehouse in Abu Dhabi has a damaged roof from debris.
They’re cancelling classes/going remote in countries all over Europe rn
At least that’s what my friend overseas told me
Why all over Europe though?
That's not in a theatre of war, no?
I'm in europe and no one told me
Sounds off
So how's it hanging over there?
Did you see the UE 5.8 release timeline by June-July, 2026?
Man, don't you all have something better to talk about than war and politics?
Last time I checked this was an Unreal Engine-related Discord Server.
But it's after hours
🤷🏼♀️ i hope it’s not the case for many bc that really sucks, so many ppl missed out on vital aspects of education during covid when the schools all went remote
Last time I checked those were meant to relax :P
its based on daily events lol
I think the remote working rule was for UAE. Not EU.
And THAT was declared uh... my yesterday.
There's always hieroglyphs.
Pigeons make a comeback
If you splay your hands out, it means boom.
Those drone things?
left dancing pose with your hand for USA.
right dancing pose for EU.
What's that
Double right fatality for Russia.
Whaaaat
a cybernetic organism developed in 2300.
You don’t know about pigeons lol
sent back in time to stop Sparrow O'Connor.
Sounds made up
Lmfao
this is the us shooter ? 😁
I wish their poo was made up. They keep defecating all over balconies, here.
Hey that’s where i live!
Well, based on your posting history, it sure is daily. Do you even do anything UE-related on this Discord? 21 pages in and I only see the same shit posted in #lounge .
😩
changed rules to no politics or just no criticize of israel allowed ?
There's a difference between criticizing israel and being antisemitic.
No, but I do wonder why you just bombard this channel every day for weeks now with political memes and news.
Tbh i think if the only thing you can talk about is politics you’re a boring person but that’s just me
Nowadays it’s incredibly easy for anyone to be “expert” level informed on politics it’s something anyone can talk about
unreal compiler slow
CHEESECAKE!
I want to go to Osaka so bad
Yum
lets all talk about cats instead
cat drones equipped with gatling guns?
Gladly mine has thumbs
Did you know cats have barbed wieners
I mean, seriously, why join this Server that is clearly about Unreal Engine development and then spend hour after hour, hundreds of messages, on posting this stuff into the only offtopic channel you can find.
There surely mast be a Discord Server where peeps like you can discuss this stuff with others that are there for the same reason.
Bc that’s for normies
It's edgy to do it here
I have nothing against discussing politics and war once in a while, but man, your post history is too much man.
Yea when ppl are actually gathered to talk about politics it’s a lot harder to ragebait
😤
this discord went dark a long time, not that i get my questions answered years ago but with AI only purpose for its existing is talk about the news
And just like that u lost any leg to stand on
Lol real
Yeah, that reply didn't really score any points.
The only purpose for it existing to YOU is the news
But your perspective is not the collective
seriously besides the news in unreal problem solving not helpfull
If you think this Server doesn't help you with UE anymore, why not go somewhere else then, where you potentially get help? And while at it, join a Server that is about politics?
Join ground news
was probably reading your replication docs like 6 years ago lol
nowdays you can build one from scratch for unreal with ai xd
I just don't get the thought process of spending your time on something that you just said isn't useful anymore. And then additionally coming to the conclusion to post political stuff into #lounge every day.
How freaking bored must you be man
Go make the next Codex Mortis
Then you to can shock your dog
as i said unreal packaging builds takes 1 hour for each platform gotta talk about something 😂
If politics is gonna occupy so much of your headspace then you should at least attempt to be paid for it
That'll be 100 Tim 🪙 , please.
And 250 🪙 for consultations.
Anyway, feel free to discuss politics, war, Israel and what not. Just keep it civil and maybe touch some gras once in a while.
I miss when talking about politics made me a weirdo who spent too much time on tumblr now it’s so mainstream
we can all pretend like in politics bomb you then go to bed like nothing 😁
What
Same honestly
Also this isn't discussing politics. This is pushing your opinion onto others.
Abbas Araqchi about attack in the gulf states
Latest reporting --- Reza Najafi, Iran’s ambassador to the UN nuclear watchdog, says the country’s sprawling nuclear facility at Natanz was struck during US and Israeli military operations on Sunday. ---
😓
I just wanna say too, that while we all can agree the world is a very politically charged and frightening place and very much posing real consequences, by worrying about what could happen 24:7 you are only making yourself suffer twice if you’re right
I'm so happy that I stopped reading the news years ago. One negative headline after another.
Now it just gets sent right to our phones
Wait, wait, what if you read the political news and cackle like a person repeatedly hit by a whoopie cushion? In glee, I mean.
@mild gust not in a bunker ? Iran Struck Netanyahu's Office This Morning, His Fate Remains Unknown, IRGC Reports
I just think, again, it’s reflective of a person’s ability to make interesting conversation or lack thereof when they can only talk about politics
Like we all know what’s going on we all have the same internet as you we don’t need to be informed 24/7 unprompted
That, and one can easily share a lot of shit that might even be false.
Literally unless you’re working in politics and know some shit the public isn’t given access to via the internet then all you’re doing is holding others captive in the echo chamber of the bitter and frightened collective
Enough news pages like to word things different, leave out important bits and pieces or generally try to make it sound worse than it is.
Just sharing the headlines or images of such is not doing anything.
it this legit ? A video has emerged showing an Iranian missile striking a US Navy ship, RTVI reports.
more arma 3 videos ?
Doesn't look like War Thunder
Do yall think Trump poops himself like everyone says
See this is fun political debate
I mean
There's also images of it lol
copy pasted The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps reported that Netanyahu's residence and the headquarters of the Israeli Air Force commander were hit by high-precision 'Kheibar' missiles, which were used as part of a morning wave of strikes.
Apparently he shits his pants a lot
Port of Bahrain struck. Fires under control. Vessels evacuated.
Sometimes you gotta whip it out
Why not wear diapers if it’s that’s real man
Missile totally annihilated the synagogue and entered into the shelter
I wonder if the new F1 cars will actually manage to all get of the starting grid with that new turbo shit they have to deal with.
they say kids were killed
No further news from Natanz yet.
F formula1 we all about nascar here
(Joking)
You see the F1 movie?
VFX were wild
I have never watched Nascar, despite that one video where the guy does the video game move to still qualify. I don't even know how that sport works :(
It’s horribly boring to watch irl
watching it live is more interesting
Like literally just watching cars drive and drive and drive
Na, only some shots about how they merged movie with real races. Will watch it at some point, but I'm worried that it's just not good x)
Nah that shit was awful
For me at least
Yeah, I only watch the summary on YouTube :D it's free and saves me a lot of time.
Corridor crew had a good cover of it
I watched some old one but I think there are many?
rip Schumacher
Just spent like 4 hours in the heat watching cars drive in a circle like obviously i knew that was the premise but holy shit irl it’s so boring
was someone holding a gun to your head?
seeing live crash was interesting
Sounds like mud bogging
Not that one for sure
unlike
That would have been more interesting at least
UE 5.8 will probably have superb F1 crash system simulators.
still not sold on ue 5 chaos physics to move away from ue4
5.3 cars were still meah
That goes with basically all new features. If you don't need that stuff, then UE4 isn't too shabby on 4.27.
5.7 was quite a bit better when I tested
But I was testing w/ Digital Dive Studio cars
Actually more fan of normal racing cars on racing games and those than f1
replication on the other hand was a can of worms to handle with unreal got to admit 😂
UE 5.8 has you covered. Chaos can influence perfectly normal Renaults and hot Mercedes, too!
I did play a bit of iRacing in the past, but it's just too damn expensive when not playing regularly.
Sadly still remains one of the best racing simulations. Reason why they can also ask for so much money -.-
Like DCS flight sim
All these intercepted drone debris falling around is a PITA. Where's a discombobulator/vapouriser ray gun when you need one?
On the back on a japanese battleship
The Megane RS on Rally, rally games are cool
YAMATO?!!!!
I like the dynamic map
I'm currently diving into the fun land of GPU crashes. I'm usually annoyed when having to deal with stale pointers or memory being stomped on the CPU, but since I started looking into GPU crash stuff, I'm starting to mis the CPU crashes x)
I played a Win 3.1 something game called Rally, which was about Nascar style cars. That was in.... 1994/5?
Overclocking?
Oh yeah never played that one myself going on subs because that reason, I paid more standard ones and one single time payment ones, not fan of subscriptions
I hate them
Btw, take the time to check the Elden Ring art in #1054845177509974107 .
Na, just random stuff. I only got to get Sentry to properly report the GPU crashes and attach the nvdbg and nv-gpudmp files, so still waiting on new crashes to check where they come from.
It was posted a few days ago. Good stuff.
Subscriptions are going to be the downfall of society fr im so over it
Last one I looked at was crashing somewhere in the BasePixelShader when trying to access PrimitiveData from the GPUScene.
And I have no clue how to properly debug that yet, cause there is no info on what the variables had in them at that time. Doesn't seem to be as straight forward as debugging CPU crashes :
👀 damm man, by that time I was inserting polygons in a box
Hehe.
But well, gotta learn new stuff once in a while.
Everyday
--- Overnight, the UK government decided to allow the US to use UK airbase, following an incident in which an Iranian drone crashed into an RAF air base in Cyprus. ---
And.... the consequences of silly tactics.
Whaaat, you don't want to pay roughly 10-20€ for every single subscription, no matter if they aren't even equal in how much you get out of them?
Adobe and me have serious beef
Who wouldn't want to pay 20€ for using a shitty AI chat bot when already paying the same amount to some streaming service to be able to watch more movies and series than one potentially could in their lifetime.
I never paid that, that's why took me everything more xD
Oh man the UDK times
Seems totally reasonable, next to the 20€ Duolingo Subscription so you don't need to wait on Energy.
Forced to use flash
Adobe's subscription is freaking pain.
Cancelled it earlier than I wanted and had to pay extra for that.
Bastards :D
yup
They opened seven duplicate accounts each just them renewing a subscription without my permission and without even informing me and have been charging me for years and bc it always just said “Adobe” i was disputing only one accounts charges only to realize they were making new ones everytime i called and bitched and got them to cancel
Oh yeah noticed that on Twitter, everyone' blaming it
The FTC sued them over that
but I don't think it got further since trump
Only subscriptions I paid was on mobile apps, and UE4
A month and cut without issues
After that I grabbed a OTP for Affinity Photo and Designer and never looked back.
When there’s a class action law suit against Adobe for this sneaky renewal bullshit I’m going to have receipts that will make me rich lol
I lost $200 cancelling mine.
That only happens in dreams
Meta paid me
Oh
Bc i joined a class action against them lol
I mean all you had to do to qualify was have a Facebook account and the payout was based on how old your account was and mine was like, made in middle school
Bc they sold data
My current subscriptions are:
- Proton
- Crunchyroll
- Amazon Prime (shared)
- Netflix (shared)
- Todoist
And I think that's it. Amazon Prime I could cancel, but never really got to it.
Todoist is something I use daily, so that's worth it. The rest is the minimum of what I'm willing to get.
I’m about to cancel Netflix just bc there is literally nothing on there to watch anymore
Good morning... What did I miss?
No freaking Discord Nitro, AI, or whatever. I had a gym subscription but we moved away start of the year so couldn't go there anymore.
Here I had a legal issue with a company and never gave me my data, they never do and expect you to enter via legal way, so you end into a infinite loop of years paying
G'morning! 👋
I’m sorry to hear that
It’s rough out here
Adobe owes me thousands
I had a gym subscription but didn't work and asked for my money back, turns out they told me I have to go there in order to workout, dammit
:D Read that joke before.
And it sucks bc when i call to yell at them it’s just some poor dude whose job it is to get yelled at he doesn’t run anything it’s not his fault so i always end up losing my will to rage
I cancelled like 5 years ago, set up a plex server, never missed it
We have a corporate benefits system, where our company can register with them for free and our employees (including us) get access to coupons, sales and stuff. The gym subscription was one of that, was like 50% off or so (forever), which I didn't want to cancel even when taking a longer break, cause I wanted to keep the low rate :D
I wish new shows would come out that actually captured my interest
yeah I ripped all Lucifer's dvd's too
What’s that
Water proof shoes
Wife does the same. But mostly cause she hates standing up every few hours to swap the dvd lol
I think you misread shows as shoes
Yeah I’m confused
(I didn't actually rip his dvds but what I did is against server rules to speak abou)
Tulsa King
which is why I didn't needle you about it.
No worries, just write it, I'll preapre the ban command in the meantime.
Shame
--- Oman’s Maritime Security Center has reported that the oil tanker (MKD VYOM) was attacked by an explosive-laden boat while sailing 52 nautical miles off the coast of Muscat Governorate. ---
21 crew members evacuated and safe.
The ship on the other hand...
My wife started buying DVD boxes the same way others buy books.
I already have no space left for books
At garage sales?
I don't need to add dvds to it too
Buy them, put them in the shelf and never watch them.....
Although I'm not too much better. Wanted the Stargate SG1 and Atlantis series and I only managed to watch the original movie and the first episode so far.
tbh I think me and my wife collectively have read at least 80% of our bookshelves
That's pretty good.
we've been reading on e-readers the last 2 years now though
but I just bought some more physical books again yesterday actually
I missed it a bit
and it's nices to read that in front of the baby
Dieter any more photos on your house? 😄
so he doesn't think we're addicts to big phones or some shit
The only physical book I've read in the last five years or more is 'The Chanakya Diaries' and THAT was because the e-version isn't available.
like what?
I was never much into reading. Only books I ever finished were the Traveler's Gate Trilogy.
My bookshelves are filling with mangas lately, which feel even more expensive.......
I'm gonna be fucked when my dad dies
nothing specific.. just fun to see progress 🙂
I only remember seeing kitchen 😄
I'm never fitting the books from the shelves I left there together with what we have now in our house
My archonia order history hurts looking at.
oh, there have been plenty of pic before
oh I go search then 😄
Does he live in his own house?
Here’s a recent one from outside when it was fogged the fuck up
yes
Convert it to a library after inherting it. Problem solved
Why not
Turn 1/3 into a library x)
Give them full access
1/4th
Make them pay a library fee
bruh, you building a castle?? 😄
With solar now though
and 5 more panels on the other side
Need to look into getting solarpanels in the near future.
I guess
Modern castle
But we have a lot of stuff to still purchase for inside and also outside to just get the garden done.
And wife wants chicken, so that's gonna be another thing that happens first -.-
as you see there's a bit of a water problem in the garden atm though
Needs a waterfall
so we still need to fix that
cause we already have too much water
But you could attract wild life
rain water drains straight to sewer ?
Heres solar in the other side
no, into cisterns
then if that oveflows it goes into an infiltration pit to try to dump it back in the ground
I think we have 20k liters capacity in the cisterns though
I can actually finally do a Dieter and share pictures of a house.
i'm colleting rain water and using that to water the garden instead of tap water
Good choice
people use tap water for their garden? wtf
I thought there was a cool balcony at first
You'll find me here in the summer.
damn sick
When you say 'A' house, how many houses do you have?
prefer mobile pools, low maintenance
But what about second house
we're planning on moving to the new house this weekend actually
hoping everything goes smooth
Eh, there is both, but yeah, gonna trade something for pool in terms of space.
nice nice 😄
they're installing baseboards today, and finishing the bathroom this week
then I need to clean that shit up
Like, needs some work to be a bit prettier, but that's enough garden for me.
Behind the house are fields so that's all good.
Oh. Did they get a new bathtub installed?
bathtub arriving today
not sure when they're installing it
Yeah, wife wanted even bigger garden, but I'm the one having to keep it clean, so yeaaah.
Will reporpuse the thing on the right for the chickens in the future. I don't really need that thing for parties or whatever they used it for.
make sense
you use the driveway for parking?
cause I see you also have a garage
otherwise you could make a nice front garden too if you're into that shit
Fingers crossed for your move. I wish I took more time doing things in the house before moving.
It's so much more difficult to do this once moved and starting to use everything.
that's what my wife said too, but now she's getting tired of waiting 😆
also she's starting a new job in 2 weeks and she didn't want the stress of that overlapping
Yeaaah, we moved 14 days after all the paperwork was through to not pay too many months double on apartment and house. But one more month would have been useful in hindsight.
we have to paint still, but yeah we wanna wait a year to do that to let the plaster thing dry out properly first
--- Netflix has announced that its streaming service will stop working on Sony's gaming console from today. ---
People watch Netflix on a playstation?
idk, but I used to watch it on my xbox back in the day
No, we only let a company do a full cleaning of the house. Rest was all still in good condition. House is from 1997 and pretty modern. Has a full smart home setup for heating, blinds, cameras, door/window contacts, etc.
there can be too much solar too
very nice
Only thing they did shit when building this is not putting the cables into proper pipes.
That dicision I can't grasp. Will at somepoint in the future have to let someone open the walls and do that properly.
we have home automation for light heating and blinds too
That's one of the things I would have liked to do in that extra month
or roller shutters to be more accurate
We just set up some Energy tracking, but only where sockets are available.
E.g. PC, TV, Fridge, Washing Machine, Servers, Router, etc.
I will have someone install trackers in the fuse box at some point, so we know exactly where what goes.
I tend to buy the physical book and pirate the ebook.
i have 46 panels 😁 and plan on adding more, you can have power even if its cloudy or rainy
Yeah, I call them blinds out of habit. The plastic ones that roll down on the outside.
I did buy an e-book even once and pirated it anyway cause it was more convenient lol
cause their stupid e-book had DRM that my reader couldn't deal with for some reason
yeah, they don't really put those in new houses anymore
but they're goated in summer though
so we did our whole house with them
except for 2 large windows that were too big for them
where we put screens instead
you are missing a wind turbine
Same with dvds. Copy protection just makes it shit for legitimate users.
I'm not allowed to have a wind turbine or a nuclear reactor in my garden according to building codes
I don't honestly know. But I think they are still pretty much in all new houses in Germany
I think people just don't like the look of them in modern houses
I'm going to get these neat blinds for my flat.
At least the few I saw when looking for an apartment for my mother
but modern style houses look like ass anyway
True
We went for a more classic look but with modern touches
i saw many houses in Germany having wind turbines 1-2m above rooftops
I would never not want them though. Help against heat and cold, block light so you can sleep properly, aren't so easy to get into for burglars etc.
Not sure where. We do have wind turbines but usually on the fields.
Most German houses have solar panels.
a lock won't stop a thief i leave my doors open, thiefs can do more damage by trying to brake in so if they want to get in they will get in
Well if they have something that is
Rolling shutters aren't locks
Try lifting one that is down. You'll know why it stops them
I'm more worried about that one door in the garden that leads into the basement.
That one I'll probably put a bar behind
i'd rather not have broken windows too 😂
shutters or anything visually inviting from the outside its like an invite for thiefs.
shutters are inviting?
how do you break a window if there's a roller shutter in front
Depends on the type of shutter ofc.
they get in through the roof lol i'v seen many cases
they get in through the roof, then climb in your home and break the window for fun while they're at it?
best security system is having a dog
thieves must be really dedicated to climb up my roof, take of the shingles, cut through 50 cm of insulation, open up the drywall and enter throught said hole
that's a lot of effort. Just use a bunker-buster drone.
or..... pick the lock. One of those.
Very cool.
Black and white particle animation.
Airdef operator be like
--- The Israeli army says it killed Hussein Makled, who served as the head of Hezbollah’s intelligence headquarters ---
US CENTCOM says 4 KIA so far.
One of my students is flying in the opposite direction tomorrow, to Portugal, since all the flights over the regular ways are cancelled.
No news from Natanz so far. IAEA hasn't reported any radiation leaks. phew. 😅
U.S. Secretary of War, Pete Hegseth: 'We did not start this war
This war is not about changing the regime in Iran. The regime has already changed and the world has become a better place
i want some of what he is smoking
drinking.
He's Pete Kegseth.
But, it's better to ignore him and focus on what the Pentagon officials are telling the Congress.
hah they literally killed Suileman (or whatever his name was, the Republican Guard dude) just to get a reaction from Khameini. But you know... we could go back 40 odd years too.
Gen. Dan Caine has said, "...this is major combat operations..."
--- US has achieved ‘air superiority’ over Iran: Caine
US forces have achieved air superiority over Iran, top US military officer General Dan Caine said during a news conference. ---
Hopefully, that's the truth. With the current administration though...
thats my truck😂
Pete Keglord had a good speech going.
Trump knows all about air superiority. He knows more about it than anyone else.
That is, until he said 'fake news'.
The regime who chanted ‘Death to America’ and ‘Death to Israel’ was GIFTED ‘Death from America’ and ‘Death from Israel
well it was kinda their own fault to begin with
they overthrew the elected leader and installed the shah that led to the revolution
wow
America's fault that is
🥁
funny how politics works one day you have $10 mil bounty for beheading people other day you are a world leader, i mean in a world run by pedophiles and satanists what to expect
and you are trying to say this conflicts are not market made like the one in ukraine
I don't think anyone claims they're doing this for the good of the people
NATO will not participate in the US and Israeli operation in Iran, said the Alliance's Secretary General, Mark Rutte.
I'm guessing USA is a NATO member only when it suits them 😁
how so lol
nato is about defense when being attacked lol
not when you're the attacker
did you read the text lol
yes
its mind blowing
what is mind blowing?
so US a nato member engaged in iran right, but NATO will not participate lol
Because that's not defensive, it's offensive.
its like US is not in it
If Iran attacked USA, NATO can be called in if USA so wished.
Otherwise, NATO doesn't apply.
indeed
as per how NATO works
So when nato was blowing up libya its wasn't nato 😂
I mean nato can do joint operations
if the members all agree
I don't see what point you're trying to make
He's confused.
NATO members are free to act as and how they want. Individual members can help each other as and how they want, as nations.
NATO defensive clause applies ONLY when a NATO member is attacked by someone else.
There's no relation to Libya in that.
For example, I doubt Belgium was in Libya.
Logic if US is already a NATO member attacking Iran its nato attacking iran because then who is NATO lol
Incorrect.
It's a NATO nation, yes.
But they don't have the right to invoke NATO defensive clause.
no
That is WHY UK and others denied them base-launch rights.
That was until Iran attacked them.
that doesn't mean the whole of nato needs to get involved
Different words.
and who the fuck even is the US to complain about NATO, they're literally the only ones to have invoked article 5
bunch of dumb fucks
then the orange munchkin tries to force EU countries to spend more on defense
and then he cries that they buy from EU companies
and now --- Iraq’s Foreign Minister Fuad Hussein has said his country is now “directly affected by the course of the war” ---
We invite more members to join the merry circus.
despite the us supplying many of the arms and bases in the North Atlantic Treaty Orginization, its just 1 autonomous unit of a collective
NATO exists entirely because of the soviet union, and was never disolved because there was both no reason and because doing so would be quite expensive on all sides when the countries in it largely get along
its still a defensive threat and why russia hasnt tried to invade little european texas in the last 30 years despite wanting too
marshall sheriff hawk is the Nato police
european texas?
Poland
I was expecting a stronger jaw line.
wonder how it would work with greenland, it appears its not in nato like denmark
greenland is part of the kingdom of denmark...
yeah
article 5 if us invades
greenland is soverign territory of denmark
but the affiliation is closer to us-peurto rico than monatana and nebraska
tbh, the us already has a bunch of military bases in greenland, we never needed to invade, that was just orange moron's posturing
the poor canuks are more likely to be absorbed as states 51-60
