something something discord taking away freedums
There were a bunch of games we used to play in splitscreen too
mostly finnish shareware games that most people outside finland probably never played, like Wings or Minebombers
meinkraft
can't say I've heard of those
Wings is one of those games where you fly around in a cave in a space ship and shoot at your friends
Minebombers is kinda like more violent bomberman with more guns and stuff? lol
I remember playing fallout 2 and getting scarred for life as ||the evil dude massacred a whole family in front of me||
like no censorship or anything, just full blown massacre
Diablo 2 was also fun
I did eventually complete both fallout 1 and 2 and they're still some of my favorite games
yeah diablo 2 was great
I still remember my barbarian character was called tofuman
don't ask me why, probably no reason
lol
I remember being super impressed with the environments
like you got to be in the desert
in the jungles
Yeah
diablo 2 is gewd yee π
the remastered version did a pretty good job of updating the graphics without taking away the original feeling and atmosphere of it
when LoD came out I spent so much time trading
I had this thing where I would go back and start from nothing, set myself a goal of some nonsense runeword and give myself some weeks to get it
and I managed
noice
like high level runeword
yeah it was interesting. sometimes you got lucky with one 1 HR but you still needed 3 more
It's impossible to read it otherwise
launcher only logs me out maybe once every couple of months. Bridge is every launch lol.
||was that the one with Frank Horrigan, the massive enclave unit. I seem to remember he did a lot of massacring||
Weird thing is that the exact opposite happens.
Bridge remembers me for a couple of week, before asking to enter password and go through 2FA again
there are probably rats that size roaming around paris

uh, you are dark
everything is okay? @zinc matrix

nice song
abandoned mall vibes for sure
π
π japonese songs are brightening my aeroponic garden mood
this is what I miss
and can't do shit except move forward
haven't talked to friend for almost 2 years and all I have is song projects from him
π mixing the electric pipes with the guitar feels hard
it's raw af
π
i talked personally with a old friend some days ago
made me want to madly smoke weed all my way again
go to parties afterward
yeah
returned to home to model a bit more
that's all we did
he smoked a brave joint in my front and did not offered me a puff
and i talked a heck of myself
i always end up feeling like dying
i may be the most egocentric being around my area
and not knowing wtf is going on
and then I just stick to guitar to ride it out lol
i actually went there to question some bits about our past
i do not remember much of our early adulhood
that i consider mid adolescence
cbd feels the same
it gives you that paranoia
if you take too much
and melts you
lol
he was spitting saliva and certainly i would be paranoid about it if i smoked
π
but sincerely, living with my parents after hit the road for a year, sometimes i just wanna forget myself
but i do not know if i have much braveness
everything drug related feel so heavy
something natural and just a lil bit is fine
if you take cbd and go bike riding it's fine
even tho you feel like dying
but exercise helps lol
riding a bike is another ballpark of existence
yeah
bike to the woods
and touch a tree
haha
once i stopped cycling and started look to the skies thinking where the airplane was
at the end was the noise on my ears
of the wind
when i moved
but that was acidic
lol what
yeah, it was literally like an airplane noise
but i was very irresponsible about dosage and size of body
or may i feel too much
i though i was a hero on 3 grams of mushroom and some friends go party with 4 on raves
anyway i will not over stand, just passed to type a heelbye

that song and the tutorial has nice colors

Replace the speed limit plaque with one that reads
Welcome to
Silent Hill
I dunno, I just like the trilogy games
Even though I'm not into horror much
yeah π
Maybe someday I should get into making a horror game, but put more emphasis into Eldritch Abomination kind of body horror and stuff
Not just some cheaply made shitty horror indie games.
Want it to be more psychological than just mystical
it's about atmosphere and visual feeling
like alan wake
that foggy feeling
throwing in dead bodies and all the rest is like fun elements of it lol
feels too basic and predictable
like at times it feels like you just need to throw in some crosses and scary stuff in it lol
Also I kinda tempted to put RPG elements into it, along with some first person shooter
threw it in just for fun and to make it look scary
like shit went down on this road
Survival horror game.

damn
gameplay looks booring, but design is nice
will take like 1-3 years for me to release playable game
patience and not giving up is the key
even if it feels like going nowhere
just making levels for the sake of making something
thats not what I mean when I said I wanted to go to the green room
It is still green, there is just too much exposure.
Aah when orange was stylish
When your artist is in the mood ^
Hey, good news!
Now, they have a reason to ask for subbing.
Microsoft is the multitrillion-dollar advertising company that nobody saw coming. Thereβs a reason for that. Until recently, Microsoft was a distant and relatively uninvested competitor in the advertising sector. The company didnβt have ad tech, exactly, and its own properties β MSN, the Bing search engine and the Edge browser β never gained mar...
being pushy about Edge is not what I consider advertising, the amount of apps that have popups is insane considering we almost universally agreed popups were garbage
They consider Xbox and blizzard the new ad ground, if you read the 2nd article.
It frustrates the hell outta me cuz on the one hand MS does some cool stuff but on the other they do this invasive crap which makes me want to not use any of their software
This is the way I guess.
Hey bros what's good?
weather is pretty good
It ain't. It is mid of March and is still under 0 C,wtf... These winters gets longer and longer, there is almost no Spring anymore. Probably it will get from 0 to 20 in two weeks.
Shoo... Everyone knows that this continent does not exist.
its not a continent, the place down under aka Hell is always hot π
It is hot because you always with the heads down.
I suppose there is no snow? π€
@cursive crypt it was until a few days ago, now back at 13. Next week 15, finally. Such a long winter
Yeah, you were in northern Europe?
TBH 15Β°C is already felt cold to me
Honestly yeah
It's not exactly warm
Although I would love to see those that love "winter" so much spend a winter in a place that's actually harsh
no sun...
ice...
needing to keep your house warm
For sure
As a guest you don't have to think about house maintenance and stuff
food is something i worry about as a guest/tourist
clearing snow every morning
.
Yo guys just wondering, what are the chances of actually building a dev team with the #volunteer-projects channel? Iβm thinking of finally starting my game with a team
Iβm new to this community so Iβm not too sure how common it is
that depends, what are the skills you're bringing on the table?
More of a hobbyist project, so any skills are welcome
No no, I mean what are your skills in the team?
I make tea and can yawn.
i can sleep
Oh Iβm a programmer as well
Mostly blueprint
Also yeah itβs a game! Sorry I should have been more specific
what's the theme?
Kind of a journey-esque third person shooter
A little inspired by Mandalorian
And mad max
Well if you're a star programmer, have a lot done already and just need some side help for art or sound, maybe...but you have to really inspire people
If you're only bringing an idea or plan, then 0
^
Ohh so probably not the best place to try to get anyone into a hobbyist project that is just starting
Gotcha
Best to work at it by yourself for a while
Yeah, then just see what roadblocks I hit along the way that I may need further assistance with
None.
I mean, why would someone waste my time on someone's project if it doesn't bring me food on the table?
Revenue share is not guaranteed, so the incentive is not there.
Even if you could assemble a team from #volunteer-projects , don't expect the team members to commit on it full time.
Come to think of it, lack of funding is one of the reason why open source projects either halted or have slow development.
Slow development is fine for what Iβm aiming for. Itβs just a passion project for people to work on in their free time since this is a hobby.
Well, they can leave/bail out at anytime, as there are no immediate incentive, so still expect it to be all on your own.
I mean of course, people can come and go as they want and Iβd most likely still work on it anyway
it's still a pretty tough ask... both of my projects I'm doing with some friends who want to do the projects but they all have other things either as a result of procrastination or something else that makes me the main driving force behind them :P
Their contributions mainly come in bursts that come and go
I'd imagine the result of working with strangers to be that, but expect even less
people either work on their own ideas / their own projects for no pay, or work to get some income. the only ones you might gather are those who need weird experience or something else. as you have already concluded, you might gather people easily once you have made some raw material that inspires them. one downside with people coming in and going out, is that the material you have becomes so varied that final product appears like different parts stitched together

starts giggling because modders will come up with a way to circumvent it anyway
yea, but that means more bloat.
its stupid that you have to install stuff to disable stuff one should not get/be able to disable in options
who pinged me π
yeah adding ads to some more used components is most annoying
π»
calls ghost busters
isn't windows license already costly? also file explorer? you mean like how i get app names i haven't installed in the app browser in win 10? isn't that misleading? showing files I don't have to make me get them or something
I got a paid win-10, never saw a banner/ad
Even in windows 10 ad for apps are shoehorned in start menu
They're there even though it's not actually installed
In win10 I never saw anything that I'd traditionally classify as an ad
The start menu buttons for apps that weren't installed, you can just remove them nbd
I think I've seen a small blue link text somewhere saying you could install this microsoft application to do something which technically is an ad I guess but it didn't bother me
the screenshot from the file explorer thing looks annoying though :P
Oh god, no
yeah i meant those, i just couldn't shorten it properly with the right terms π
it's not a big deal, just that I'd prefer not scrolling through unknown apps because it kinda screams malware to me :P
It's apps that microsoft has put there so I would assume there has been some kind of a vetting process lol
yes, they are mostly games etc from what i have seen, and it does have something under it like you said, saying it's not installed as of lately i remember it didn't have that before and i was confused where these apps came from
I don't really know what's so confusing about it
operating systems come with bundled software, my assumption was they were installed
so I clicked it to see what it was and then it just opened the store which made it pretty obvious it wasn't installed lol
the confusing part for me was, "i have already removed all the games, how is this here? π€ "
it's Microsoft so i hope their file browser ads would be clear that this file is an ad ,or just not have it in the file browsing are because muscle memory would make me click at wrong files if the structure changes with it
I mean they're not going to inject files that are ads
There was a pretty obvious "banner" in the screenshot what this is based on
i recall some file browsers doing that, so i am worried
Never heard of that, sounds like some kind of garbage tier software you shouldn't install anyway lol
it was
I don't remember the name, but it was something chinese and its purpose was video encoding of sorts, saw that in an acquaintance's laptop
Also xbox and blizzard btw: #lounge message
Epic blocked the marketplace income in russia too
tbh here some main developer were from russia I see this awful
Probably Epic has to keep up with the sanctions.
It also may be dependant on which bank that dev is using?
And what says the communication?
didnt' checked π
Epic is stopping commerce with Russia in our games in response to its invasion of Ukraine. Weβre not blocking access for the same reason other communication tools remain online: the free world should keep all lines of dialogue open.

it goes to a tweet lol
maybe the marketplpace isnt ?
"stopping commerce with Russia in our games"
It is vague. Maybe no more lootboxes?
idk
Nah, nanite will eat it.
Push.
Join someone else then. There are like 10 ppl in the voice chats.
a russian dude hacked or whatever my epic account a year ago, he changed everything to russian language and put his name and adresse in there. but thats all, then I changed my password. that was so weird.
my paypal was linked at that time, he didnt even buy something.
Yeah I don't really get this mid gen we had
GI is too expensive
Let's add Raytracing directly
Tessellation is too costly
Let's rather support directly billions of poly

as long as it works
Hey bros who want to be friends? Only criteria is that you have to play ss13
guess we can't be friends :(
today's fun development activity: find out who committed a bunch of shit without testing it several months ago that also somehow ended up in production
thank you Lord and Savior Torvalds for providing us with git bisect
π₯
how is your car?
Waiting on capacitors from china
Waiting for gas prices to drop
v8 gang
I put a full tank just before the price hikes and now I'm not even touching the car
I4 gang
Now's the time to make biking the next thing π
the city I live in is well known as a biking city actually :P
but the prospect of doing it in winter doesn't really excite me much, nor using a bike to haul groceries or other larger items lol
Lucky you π
I wish it was normalized here too. I can do shopping too, easy with a front basket
I definitely need many horsepowers to do my grocery run lol
so you can't drive it till then or what π€ ,i am not too good with car biology π
I actually did some calculations after going to the Burger King drive-in the other day
It almost cost me as much in fuel as it would cost to have it delivered lol
good thing, just have it all delivered always now
Should have biked to get it
hmm actually it wasn't quite the delivery fee, I think I got it a bit wrong
fuel cost for that trip woulda been around 4-5 eur, delivery is more like 10 :P
is the saving worth it?
depends on if you want to spend the time driving there or not I guess lol
if we go there together it's worth it <3
was there a storm?
we got a storm from Africa that reach 1000KM
i did not expect myself to be right
away from africa and everything is filled of dust/sand
despite I'm in the north of spain
Nah I can still drive it, just no fuel or temp gauge
wait how do you refuel it then
Have you ever refueled a car?
You know you don't look at the fuel gauge when refueling right?
:D
I guess he means how do you know when to refuel
Maybe :D
:P i mean yeah but,
this is what i meant xD
I also filled up the tanks at the 1st day.
Now, everyone wants me to drive to them π§
Apparently the sunflower oil prices also skyrocketed.
I know roughly how much fuel I use weekly and roughly when I would need to refuel, so instead of using the fuel gauge, I just fuel it ever week
small errors might add up, be careful π°
do you carry extra fuel in case of emergency?
hope you get the capacitor soon π
Odd question, but anyone here done work with the Peace Corps before?
I've been thinking of joining them
Are you talking military?
Ye thanks. We on China time now though :(
Not exactly https://www.peacecorps.gov/
Well, that's actually a "peace" for a change.
However, you better ask in other places. Asking here is quite a blind shot.
Yeah, a lotta pessimists here
so what are those, like volunteers?
Yes
They volunteer to help people in third world countries with stuff like infrastructure, agriculture, education, etc
Never heard of them, but no one's here stopping you from moving forward with your activism.
You probably should though cuz the fuel gauge tells you which side to refill on :p
Only in some cars :P
Needs more multimeta
crypto
hey, its probably not the best place, but i just found out that one of the "curators" i send keys to is a scam (he, and 6 other "curators" who mailed me have the same date of creation) so here, pls activate it for yourselfe, at least they will not be sold

(steam)
What are these????
my game, Catnight
i dont want to promote it now, jsut want the scam curator to not be able to earn on this
XDDDD
yeaaaa XD well, the other model is better XD
the full furry one
we will be making changes to skins in comign months, this was our firt model we were playing with, but because how "strange" it looks, we keep it for now, becasue its so bad its funny XD
its like cat head attached to human body
I think that model is great
I'd even say you should make him more buff like a real bodybuilder type and make it look like the cat head is actually like one of those mascot suit heads that some guy is just wearing
It would add to the weirdness of it lol
hehe.. pronk
Pronk...
Pronk is superior
let's always pronk instead of walk
If only we had 4 legs.
reminds me of https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GKVVagGgJac
But is he pronking?!
I worked on some effects for Teen Wolf and they ran all goofy like that in the first season. They called it a Lope, but it looks more like a Bound to me.
looks more like an accident waiting to happen
didn't "my precious" guy from lotr pronked too?
typical spanish
also the COD zombies SFX lmao
Not really like a dog. More like a fish.
π
Well Doom from 1993 predicted that today 15 of march of 2022 the sky will turn red

Now we only need the demons
if we pronk the right way, you won't need demons
happy Doomsday
Well, it's black now. No red to be seen!
Unless the demons and the red... it was Russia all along!
It was in doom too.
i really wish i understood those references
it is ? I was thinking of Terraria
"dust" from "sahara", what a clever disguise for "radioactive fallout" from "ukraine"
Are you sure that's doom and not one of those mods etc ?
Yes.
(it is his boom-stick)
I don't remember that at all.
rabbits are more important than that afterall
He looks super retarded in that pic.
It is one. Also great music. Last boss was one weird ass, lol.
who must I threaten to get fbx to support non-inherited scale?
Nobody from this server.
yeah definitely barking up the wrong tree
lol
I lovehate blender very much. it reminds me of lightwave
No sorry, wasn't trying to legitimately get FBX format to change via discord.
Just complaining that it doesn't have kinda basic features like non inherited scale.
the blender discord is one of the most unhelpful places on the planet
way too many blender fanatics
"if you can't do it the blender way, f you"
"oh x as a delete key bothers you and the fact that you have to have another menu to delete every single element"? WELCOME TO BLENDER BABY
Their fanbase is not unlike the Rick and Morty fanbase
Just the other day, I had an anim scene linking to external rig.
I had to relocated the rig, repointed the path in Blender. Next time I opened it, the anim scene friggin EVAPORATED. All those keyframes, gone in the ether.
I will give them credit for having a CRAZY amount of hotkey control
can't rebind the effin menu though
had to get a custom plugin just for "normal" deletion
Definitely saved. There was even a v001, v002 and v003 of the scene. Luckily, managed to salvage some anim from v001. Still scary. Would not want it to happen on a massive scene.
have you used blender?
the default "delete" key brings up a menu instead of deleting stuff
no it's asking you what to delete despite you having a selection to work with
try it
it asks you if you want to delete edge or face or vertices or whatever
that's not confirmation though
Indeed. It's more like a double-hotkey. XF for faces, XV for vertices, etc.
Blender is dope.
On side note: I am burned out browsing the forums as that Elden Ring is freaking everywhere. People simp about each pixel even.
i love keyboard hotkeys of blender
everyone likes being forced down a workflow. imagine being forced to use rider for VS because it's the only option π
I just use the export plugin and the delete plugin
that's it
yeah to avoid the obnoxious delete menu
see above conversation
just makes the delete auto correlate to what your selection is
instead of having to manually do it
just like any other 3D app does it
one wouldn't think it's rocket science
but apparently it is for the blender foundation
but like... it's a map?!
isn't the whole point fast k,v gets?
well yeah because of lack of 2d arrays
but let's not pretend that's how maps are supposed to be used
sorting maps is
how does vector differ from... an array?
std::vector is a sequence container that encapsulates dynamic size arrays
why is it called vector though π€
I miss lists
they were my favorite
std::vector and boost::fixed_vector are amazing honestly

I know its gonna be a great vid if code monkeys in it
Dont even use unity that much but i still watch his vids lmao
its a fun video, quite cool an idea
I hate auto, it feels wrong
I want to be very specific with types, so my compiler buddy can yell at me
My super-duper awesome cool team lead was using it for iterators so I also used to it
Some lamdas require it
TArray works the same way as std::vector, minor implementation details aside. They're the exact same type of container.
the "vector" nomenclature was chosen to distinguish it from built-in arrays (new int[123]). Of course this screws things up because mathematical vectors generally have a static size but std::array is the one that's statically sized...
tldr: vector is a dumb name, but we're stuck with it
Wish Unreal side of things had similar videos π¦
yeah unity has brackeys and code monkey and sebastian lague and i can go on and on
i think thats a major reason a lot of indie devs go for unity
Also there's shitpost-y Unity videos
I doubt Unity has a dedicated channel for theirselves with full of bored seniors like #cpp though
As far as shitpost-y dev goes, I can only think of Fat Dino for the Unreal side
I mean unreal has some good ones don't get me wrong, but in my experience the amount of high quality community support has been higher for unity
and yeah the only unreal shitpost dev i can think of is fat dino
Seems like it
its really annoying to have a question, and the only relevant answer is an 8yr old forum thread, that has broken links
But #blueprint, #graphics and #cpp - even #multiplayer is fairly active :\
Replaces the forum
it is but it is still nowhere near the level of unity tho, thats the point
same thing
oh right
blah blah std library blah blah UPROPERTY(BLAHBLAH, BLUEPRINTSOMETHING)
I never used Unity so I dont know, do they also have tons of bored seniors or just community guys who is helpful around with average amount of knowledge?
Even the docs. Every class has a little code sample of how you'd use it unless it's REALLY obscure.
UE dont have docs unless its for lighting
Still wish Unreal community to be as "colourful" as Unity's.
assuming the system they're documenting is even supported 
oops, wrong reply
that was meant to go with the person talking about unity having good docs lol
I mean, sure, Unreal is a very serious engine for very serious people, but surely some shitpost videos, silly challenges, and less for profit projects won't hurt, right?
Right?
exactly, unity docs are so great, i managed to figure out exactly how to use the Vector2 library for my needs after 1 paragraph, but unreal docs are all auto generated
its like a look up a node, and it tells me its inputs and outputs, like yeah, i kind figured that
occasionally you get the quick start guides that are kinda useful, but theres only like 2.5 of them anyway
Ya the shader documentation was almost nonexistent
I was more referring to the fact that they keep releasing half-baked new features and never stabilizing them (or deprecating old features without replacements lol)
They might have good docs... but if there aren't good systems to go with those docs then what's the point.
I don't even see that many unreal devlogs tbh and its sad, only one i can name is the guy thats doing project feline, i like his devlogs
its true, but the fact remains you can still get a lot more done as a beginner in unity
unreal is more friendly at picking it up, but some of the higher level concepts, no one talks about
whereas unity you can look at some great channels, and figure the rest out fairly easily
Oh I agree, unity is much more beginner friendly.
There's another one, that got Epic MegaGrant, the game style is rather simplistic, but not gaining that much traction
Not to mention not much fear mongering in the way of Unity, compared to Unreal
i dont agree with releasing half baked features, or their business model
I'd be tempted to use Unity if it were C++, just for the docs alone
But I don't like C#, and the systems in Unreal are usually well designed
There are still few fear mongering roaming around that distance beginners away from Unreal
yeah i hear a lot of parroting "Event tick bad", when its completely untrue, and i only realised it myself, after doing sfml, and looking at unity, where your only thing you get is a tick
when you have to make your game in an update render cycle, there isnt much room to not use tick
another thing that does annoy me, is sometimes id ask something, or go to a tutorial, and get told a way o doing something is bad without any explanation, whereas with other support for other engines, ive found they explain why things are bad, instead of "this bad, dont do"
Even if there are explanations, it usually isn't presented in more layman terms, and easier for beginners to grasp
you see id like that, but im not a fan of watching livestreams
Same tbh
Not to mention Twitch is less forgiving than YouTube when it comes to internet connection
yeah twwitch doesnt like my internet at all
i prefer youtube anyway even if i am binging, cause i like the freedom of being able to sit down and watch parts whenever, rather than being forced into something
i dislike twitch, unless im the one streaming
i dont mind streaming, but i dislike watching them
I can stream 720p60 livestream in YouTube easy, but not on Twitch.
And personally I prefer making produced videos to YouTube
vloogss?
you on about the VODs of the streams that get reuploaded?
At least Unreal's official channel had VOD on YouTube rather quick, I give them that.
Even though admittedly Inside Unreal is hard to follow
Even as someone who use UE for almost 5 years now
cause im not a fan of them either, cause its still the streaming style, livestreams arent always interesting, and sometimes you get bits where they don't talk, or they sit debugging fr ages, which i dont wanna watch
i want to see features being implemented, and why they are doing it, with a little bit of hindsight, rather than in-the-moment commentary, which i find more underwhelming
HI GUYS WHAT'S UP.
devlogs terrify me tbh, i hate the sound of my voice, and its gonna be a challenge to find my own style, but its the good kind of terrifying
Here's the thing,
era of livestreams are actually easier to follow. They had better pacing and less on the fly debugging
the sky!!11!!1!1
yes lmaoamdomaod
You can get away with just text and some boring EDM music 
sup
ooh the 2010 tutorial style i like it
although tbf i think its more terrifying for my partner lmao
the one thing i am looking forward to is making trailers
that shit looks funnn
Early Unreal livestreams are not too shabby,
era livestreams are bearable and well paced (and to some extent earlier Amanda era), but Inside Unreal streams is just hard to follow.
I don't think grabify support that elaborate URL without paying
(I used it to reverse scam forms lmao)
"hey guys c++ or blueprint?"
flamewar ensues
you either get a balanced response, that highlights advantages of both, or one that's either in extreme favour of the other and scrutiny of another
yeah the real chads know its both
my goal is to make systems in c++ to expose to bp, which
And the latter is scare beginners the most
like on of my projects upcoming, i will probably use subsystems for things like quests, whihc i will connect to bp
I'm sure we had several instances where we scare beginners away.
I know it happened at one point where I redirect someone to #blueprint and a war ensues
I personally hate blueprints for everything except assets
They definitely have their place
But when used improperly it results in literal spaghetti code
And I don't remember what was the question is all about (the one that I redirect to #blueprint) but it sure wasn't even about BP v. C++
C++ vs BP is a false dichotomy anyway, blueprints are a tool to add on top of C++
Makes some things way easier
BP taught me a lot about how the engine thinks at least
but transition from BP to C++ is not easy
But only C++ can give you the true Hackerman experience
You playtest your projects? I just code because I know it will work π
just get better at cpp bro
Or what the kids these days would say
git gud
Doing just BP can only get you so far as being an electrical engineer
Get it
Because BP's are all about connecting cable
That reminds me of that blueprint plugin
Electrical Nodes
Yeah that one, it's nice
Personally I won't waste money on something that only used in editor
For $12 it's a steal
If it's editor only (and purely cosmetic) I'd rather have my $12 for a week worth of food
π¦
If I could make similar thing, I'd just make it free open source, and no issue tracking GitHub repo that double serve as Google SEO honeypot
Sorry, but I'm that picky with spending money.
are you sure? https://hackertyper.net/
The original HackerTyper. Turning all your hacker dreams into pseudo reality since 2011.
Why faking it when you can get the real deal? Be a brave stuntman lmao
just copy the code after it's been written for you π
I mean, it's just cosmetic, something that doesn't affect production and affect runtime builds
I'm only more inclined to burn my money on things that is actually practical
||said someone who once spent money on buying anime merch||
My merch stuff is probably worth $40 lol
+$60 if the PS4 game counts (but that's more practical than just merch)
And the merch I bought decorate my home workbench, so yay
One day I will have a room full of Idolmaster merch, the room that also serve as work room, along with a test bench PC and source control server lol
The unprofessional (looking) room where professional work happen
I think I've bought 1 skin for actual money, once
i bought a lot of csgo skins, but they were all like Β£0.03 to Β£0.90
i hate spending lots on cosmetics, but if it's a small amount then i don't mind it
Influencers truly must be the dumbest people on the planet
I mean itβs one avatar michael, how much could it cost? 240k reais?
That's technically more like 47k usd but it's still an absurd amount to spend on an avatar
He needs to raise another 30k for eyelashes.
or you know, install metahuman XD
You could probably higher someone on Fiverr to make something better
Is that pretty close to a default metahuman character?
imho MH looks better than that
It does
the reason this world is f'd is because people who are "influencers" get to earn enough to do this kind of stuff
It's a symptom, not the disease.
Any metahuman would still have to be rendered in metaverse's engine, if it's up to the task.... Not sure how that works.
Little did he know, he's getting scammed
But not surprising considering it's Web3 BS
In the Metaverse, it's scamming or be scammed
the disease is free market capitalism
stop accepting free stuff

b ut its freee
Wasn't wild world of SFM did this already
now consider if those were lbs
Actually 5 packs / month, but there was one instance where it has 10 packs in a month
I meant Alec Baldwin is the narrator of Season 5
Not going to pretend I know that reference
stones
...that's even worse
Metric FTW
yeah I can't reconcile with that
stones, miles, left handed driving perfectly sums up some of the worst policies of britain
https://discord.gg/5jKVKPtZSu
join for more funny memes and also to give me someone to talk to
The clip is from Osho
who found a 14 pound rock and decided that one stone in particular should be what people use to measure weight
world class delivery
Truly the best
I was on the edge of my seat thinking he won't say it before the video ends. then BAM
it's doubly silly because you already have pounds that are silly, and then you add extra silliness by making some arbitrary number of pounds be the next unit up
a pound was originally the weight of a standard object. kind of like how an inch is the size of a grain
dare I ask.... what is a standard object? is it a UObject?
Same for metric units. Being based on universal constants is a fairly recent addition (and they're still fairly arbitrary).
its been a little while but it was the weight of a pure metal of a specific size
wether gold or silver idk
right but can we at least agree that it's easier to count in a base 10 system than it is in arbitrary bases per unit?
and yet people still don't want to adopt it π
Base 10 is useful for computers and written numerals, but arbitrary bases were probably more convenient for abacuses and tradecraft
abacusi?
blame the rest of the world for wanting to use miles and gallons for random things
looking at half of western europe
and south america
we should all start using kelvin and astronomical units
we need true scientific precision
There is SI, scientific standard for units.
I want to use .00000064 of a lightyear
Nah, you're right. I was typing base 10 while thinking about metric. I blame CE. Could probably use base 12 or hex for metric without too much trouble.
hope you know your multiplication tables
Megabytes, mibibytes, mexabytes?
mippibytes
3 muppets sized
but also let's just use hexdecimals for everything. when has math not gotten better when letters got involved?
geometry
Base64 is widely used too.
yeah but it's derivative
Who cares? Write less, compute more
"they gave me a whole keyboard, I'm going to USE the whole keyboard!"
everything is derivative. BACK TO BINARY
throw in some unicode characters available on non-American keyboards and you can hit Base128
mexahexadecimal?
α(Λ΅ ΰ² ΰ¨ ΰ² Λ΅)α
Mexabytes sounds like a Mexican fast food chain
How often do you really ever NEED to multiply by 5 anyway?
when ordering sandwiches from subway
They're now $6 where I am.
the good old days
Four fingers and a parity thumb. Teach it!
π¦
Lmao!
Hope someone saved the pages to compare
heh
there's some nordic biome pack on the marketplace
and it has red pines
instead of scots pines
red pines are north american trees
/nitpick
Still a tree tho.
I dont understand this mindset. They are just acting like being a Russian is a sin π€¦ββοΈ
silly question. why is it that whenever i want to make games i cant think of any of my brilliant ideas?
that i once had
they stick around in my mind all the time. until i want to build something
Write them down.
are you saying it isn't? π
Why would it be
You don't choose your nationality
Supporting a war can be a crime, but why would it be something bad if you born in Russia
Yeah
if you say war in anyway in russia now is a crime
And that gets them media attention -> more sales
Racism towards Russian is now normalised it seems anyway
It is?
Not formally, but huge chunk of social media dwellers did.
I find it hard to hate people you've never met all based on what their leader is lol
ah
social media dwellers
And I'm sure someone unironically jerking off to killing all NPC in the No Russian mission over and over again
(I don't have a copy of MW2 btw)
hate people you've never met all based on what their leader
I'm also a victim of this. Living with a senile and radicalist leader in the middle of the world is not helping π
dweller
key word
as in people who get all their information and perspectives from various hiveminds
I pretty much dwell on Discord, ngl
Try hating on someone based on certain terrorism group carrying a religion
"x group follows y religion (in an extremist way) anyone who follows y religion is evil!"
Paganism looks cool tho
It's a different landscape in the east.
You look at any of the larger religions, islam, christianity, etc and they all have their shit they'd rather not show in polite company.
And their issues with the organised part of that religion.
i remember reading religion is just a big fandom
Religion is an excuse.
you mean like, a justification for anything they do?
Pretty much. A justification for anything and everything. Mostly abuse.
Including bombing public places and shooting on innocent praying people
I'm not half assed (not British arse) on mentioning that
Is anybody truly innocent? (Granted they probably don't deserve to die, though)
Keyword: probably
innocence is subjective
Sadly it's subjective mostly to religion itself.
It's like taking Slayer songs too seriously tbh
And I'm a fucking metalhead
i recall that understanding lyrics of any song kind of puts me off
so i just listen without comprehending a word now
I can mention few Slayer songs that specifically referring to murdering activity.
uhm, sorry but what did you mean by "it" here? innocence or religion or morals π€
I'm totally the opposite. I enjoy songs a lot more if I actually enjoy the lyrics.
Religion, brother1.
ah i see
Well, nowadays I enjoy metal music from musical perspective. Especially when it comes to drums.
Also give something to anger with
Without actually killing someone
many songs are so twisted in nature, it's hard for me to not feel nauseated while listening to them after figuring the lyrics ... maybe i just need to find better lyrical songs
Mind mentioning one song that trip you the most?
I half bet it's one of those darker metal music
sorry i only recognise songs by thumbnail π and i get rid of them if they aren't fun anymore
Can only guess it's one of the metal albums that aren't just growling
yeah they are mostly about raging out from what i can tell
I fucking hate growling.
yes, i think it can be considered metal
I mean, it's okay to drop a bit in here and there, but all the time it's just shit.
if the song has to depend on it, it's probably a bad idea
I like it when it's a nice contrast to a good voice.
(in short amounts)
Nightwish does it pretty well (with their not-quite-actually-growling guy)
I heard a random song by Amarinthe the other day which I liked, until some twat started growling for half of it.
contrast is always appreciated, otherwise the mood stays a bit too consistent throughout
the world was always like that tbh...
The other song I heard by them, Amaranthine, was pretty good, though.
There's always been people, so the world has always been shit.
Well, for the last few hundred thousand years.
i will check them out next time
I may be totally spelling those names wrong.
it's just that we can see some parts of it better rn,
in no way has it changed much, what do they ,"history repeats itself" or whatever
say*
if the search weilds nothing i will ping you every minute till you respond to get the correct names
Lol
jk i won't, i don't have enough energy for that
I keed. I don't think anyone thinks russian civs are the bad guys, but let's remember that spetsnaz is a military branch
russia went kinda north Korea route, I don't think north korean civs are blamed by the internet dwellers much either
well north korea doesn't have internet trolls defending it
whereas russia does, sadly
i am just busy thinking that the people involved probably had different plans, and now they are occupied with figuring out how to survive better in this new life suddenly
also not saying that this means every russian is a proponent of putin, but a staggering high percent are
Check out the PC launch trailer for Chernobylite, the science-fiction survival horror RPG, set in the hyper-realistic, 3D-scanned wasteland of Chernobyl's Exclusion Zone.
In Chernobylite, take on the role of Igor, a physicist and ex-employee of the Chernobyl Power Plant, returning to Pripyat to investigate the mysterious disappearance of his ...
damn good one
Yeah, it's a point
closest you will get to visiting chernobyl now
the ukr guy i talked with, said that russia has really strong propoganda in action rn, no wonder high percentage of russians believe they are in the right
there is free 2 play roam around mode
in demo
and damn graphics are lit
it has some kind of blur or smoothing effect over it all
looks like damn candy lol
inspiring af lol
I'm pleased facebook finally tagged some of our politicians posts as "under the influence of the russian gov"...it was obvious for sooo long
which govt?
makes them sound possessed
I think big mass supports him. Hell, even I just a had a convo and learned about few acqiunteces which are pro-putin.
The disinfo machine in russia is vast
Like the whole "Ukraine was welcoming our tanks, praising them for rescuing them from their nazi overlords"...
One interesting event recently is that apparently a live news broadcast had one of the employees come in with an anti-war message
I've already seen people say that that was actually intentional
calling to question the authenticity of it because why would people be filming a news broadcast on their phones etc.
meanwhile media outlets are saying the person is being fined
why intentional?
Who knows!
Probably more fired. Out of a cannon.
But there were several points as to why it was obviously planned in advance to spread some kind of propaganda
Be careful of believing what you hear, even if it's anti-putin.
2 sides of the same coin thing ig
that doesn't matter though. it's literally a war, sharing Ukraine' propaganda helps their cause tremendously
all is fair in love and war
are they still acquaintances? π
the irony, given that ukraine's president is jewish
It probably stems from the fact they didn't join up to some EU thing banning neonazis.
I'm just waiting for russia to default on their debt
There's no room for fairness in war.

that's exactly what it implies, anything and everything is considered fair in those π
And thus Satan laughs spreading his wings
War
War never changes
At least before Solid Snake said otherwise
fluffy wings..?
Floofy fiery wings beneath the nuclear explosions
Actually that's a good idea for Fallout-esque story
mushroom clouds also look soft and fluffy
Mixing chemical warfare and satanism π€
modern satanism
D&D + Bible/Quran + MGS + Fallout
I gotta draft it
Not sure if I'm going to use it for Codename Xenoglossia as it's a cyberpunk story of ne'er do well gang against evil megacorp (but with government funding)
had fun playing Farming Simulation
Would be better if you reenact it in GTA V
Shit, forgot ARMA exist lmfao
Make a bloody genocide scene and pass it as a hoax to fight fire with fire
Hoaxes made with ARMA is not a new thing
Though not sure if ARMA 3 can do corpses
hello
they used footage from arma on the news here. an army general was a guest, he said the battle was spectacular π
satan stuff fits anywhere tbh
how's your health?
Oh God there's so many tons of Russian mods rn lmao
creators of arma must be proud
heyo, i am doing a lot better now thank you, i went back to work yesterday
glad to know!
how is it going over here
seems pretty okay so far
@zinc matrix, :8ball: Yes β definitely.
Also #lounge maybe have some No Wholesome Wednesday
Where it's nothing but politics, religion conflict, atrocities, and even murder
!strike bernie
murder huh, jatts would be happy
lmao
isn't Bernie too old though? it's so weird to me that american politicians are just soo old π
Yeah, he's probably gonna croak before he ever gets in office
I do agree with his policies though
Aren't most higher up politicians are (pretentious) old men?
Pretty much yeah
Bunch of pretentious old men ruling the world
I forgot the exact quote from Deus Ex
funny how old people are barely able to get jobs because old, yet our countries are ruled by them
No wonder most of them don't care about the incoming climate disaster; they're gonna die soon anyway
I wonder what will be millenials blamed for.
Slacking on the bed
Everything.
yeah but they should care about their kids and grand-grandkids in theri case π
Dunno, you are zoomer afaik?
that ukr zelen.. something guy looks young
Wasn't Pentagon one time bashing on video game players?
I hate the boomer idea that millennials are entitled and lazy; I mean our generation is in the midst of the highest unemployment rate and income inequality in American history so far, and older generations wonder why we're so jaded?
Also admission: I thought Pentagon was original from Metal Gear Solid
You talking about Gamergate?
Not even close
I love how people took gamergate and just made it something completely different.
AFAIK US govt has no involvement on GamerGate anyway
Few financial crisis, covid, basically no ability to own a house... I think for the Zoomers and onward it will be even worse. Climate for example.
What is a zoomer, btw?
Also GamerGate is pretty much majority of Far West thing
this is for all the people who say "WELL IT WORKS FOR ME"
Definitely, this is why I'm reluctant to have kids; I don't wanna bring them into a shit hole world
People who use Zoom chat
I see.
||totally original||
Generation Z
what are kids born after 2017 called?
Fucked
Ykwim
aren't you pretty young yourself?
If 38 is young.
actually I should have known that since you did mention masters of the universe
that's on me
Did I mention Masters of the Universe?
Isn't your pfp that little wizard guy from He-Man?
No.
Yes
Something that Square would "steal" few years later
He's a totally different colour and has a little circle on his robe, iirc.
My pfp is from 8bit comics, which took it from FF.
Also Square made CashApp
we had a conversation about the whole he man thing based on your avatar
No wait, that's different Square
I see!
he man... is there she man?
My old man brain has forgotten that particular conversation!
maybe she-ra
I was going to say
or rather she-woman
she male magician π€
You'd be surprised how many people make that connection, @verbal junco
aka Astolfo
when are we going to get the gender neutral masters?
I know, you've told me 
Social Justice Masters?
This is so confederate. Master and slave are banned words.
social justice league of the universe
we got he man and she ra
So that's why they ban IDE storage system
Google it?
Nah, we just need the Justice League
Don't think. Feel. Buy.
they shoulda made korgoth of barbaria a whole show
After all, Lex Luthor already exists IRL, even if he's changed his name
Inb4 Jeff Bezos with eyepatch
aka Big Boss
Personally I default the branch to master lmao
Though I never made slave branch
Wonder if that'll warrant a ban from GitHub
"Noooo you can't just made a branch with the name "slave"!!!"
All this computer science - lies
