I remember seeing nosebleed Metallica seats for like $200. Instead got a VIP festival weekend ticket for $200 with Metallica doing 2 shows that covid cancelled! 🤣

Used it to explain stuff during my full stack bootcamp. It is immensely helpful when you have an idea of what you don’t know but are unsure what question you need to ask to find the answer. Even better when you know what function you need from a different language but don’t know what it’s called and has some esoteric name you cba to remember.

If a libraries docs are indexed it also helps quickly find the method you need to implement.

LLMs will likely always have a place as a supporting technology during and after education.

I took Pokemon Legends Arceus to 100%. I can firmly say Palworld has a better loop than PLA.

We were almost capped on Palworld and reset our server yesterday. I have spent over a dozen hours since our reset playing the game. I would have put PLA down permanently if I was almost done with the 100% dex and lost my save data. I am missing 2 achievements on Horizon Zero Dawn on steam for that exact reason.

Early access is fine if you look at the game as it is now instead of thinking about “what it will be”.

Thats if you set the toaster to anything above 3

“You are now manually breathing” works substantially better

Was there another booster? My state stopped emailing me about them over a year ago…

And in the highly competitive, individualistic USA being in the middle of rankings is on par with being exceptionally bad!

We had hardware getting massive leaps for years. Problem is, devs got used to hardware having enough grunt to overcome lack of optimizations. Now we got shit coming out barely holding 60+ on 4080s and requiring usage of FSR or DLSS as a bandaid to make the game get back to playable framerates.

If you’ve got 30 series or 7000 series from AMD you don’t need to look for a more performant card, you need devs to put in time for polish and optimization before launch and not 6 months down the line IF the game is a commercial success.

I am currently waiting for nvidia 545 drivers to hit full release so its even playable on Linux

for commercial releases? absolutely deader than Cobain.

Clone Hero is super active, has people actively mapping new songs and is the only path forward at this point

theres an ashoka series? til

nah, used to be that was closed beta. Palia is currently in “open beta” but its actually just PC exclusive launch because there are no further wipes.

Used to be the terminology was strict and easily understood. Now its just whatever the dev wants to claim it is.

Open Beta used to be “game is free for a week then we will wipe, do any backend fixes we identified, and then launch”. Last MMO that did that that I can concretely remember was SWTOR.

If you have an AMD gpu, game runs beautifully on Linux. If you have an nvidia GPU you can get bent. The 535 driver black screens the moment you try to get past the menu, 525 and below hard lock you to a gorgeous 27-31 fps with frame timings so smooth you would get a better experience chewing sand.

Its honestly funny, your steam deck will run Starfield better than my 3080 unless I boot into Windows.

Yeah, my only gripe is I can’t play on linux because nvidia hates linux but that isn’t Bethesdas fault.

100% shill, thats why I am using windows to play Starfield because I definitely didn’t leave a “doesn’t work” report on protondb

Pretty simply. Got you some gaming devices that want their software? Heres a background process. Browser allowed to autoupdate? Have a background process. RGB controller? Background process baybeeee. Speedfan so you can get that smooth sound when you’re gaming instead of that jet engine for a 2c bump? That’s right, here’s your process. Hell, playing in Steam? There’s multiple processes.

Did you never wonder why people that do game/hardware reviews always have a pristine desktop? Damned near everything you install now has a vampiric process to “help it run better”. Its why you can open perfmon and see IO usage when you’re sitting idle on the desktop.

runs fine on my windows install. 80-120 fps at ultra with a 3080. even has gold status for steam deck. dunno if poorly optimized or if you have too much installed on your pc

per 2022? A little over $58k, so definitely not bananas

I went to a public high school in the renaissance of MySpace and Angelfire and Geocities. My Current Events class was entirely breaking down political speech and recognizing the undercurrents. World History was as much about what happened but also how the situation developed, including a stint on understanding modern journalism through the development of Yellow Journalism.

Public school can do exceptionally well if it’s actually funded like it’s supposed to be.

Fuck me, where did the time fly? I didn’t know 2017 was over 30 years ago.
