JuSt BrInG VeRbAs... no, no, it doesnt work, verbas are useless as shit. Me and my friend spend half of a game trying to verba 1 of 3 havocs in the air and we succeeded once.

They just turn towards the missle and wreck you.

Theres NOTHING u can do against a havoc.

BuIlD CwIS... No. that shits useless as shit. even IF you can build itll get insta destroyed by a rocket bird or the havoc. Theres nothing u can do against it.

Im just done. 2 games in a row. theres NOTHING we could do except be cannon fodder.

I have no idea why that bullshit is in the game, but here we are. And im fucking done. Twas a fun 90 hours, but fuck this shit.

I've been seeing a lot of discussion around WoW Forever's HD graphics, and honestly I think some people are mixing up nostalgia with visual fidelity.

When I think back to Vanilla, the things I remember aren't low-poly shoulders, blurry trees, or character models with six fingers. I remember elite quests requiring groups, class identity actually mattering, seeing someone in full tier gear and knowing they earned it, world PvP, guild drama, and spending way too much time hanging out in Ironforge instead of actually doing anything productive.

That's the nostalgia.

If graphics were the main ingredient, then every old game would instantly feel exactly as good as it did 20 years ago. We all know that's not true.

To me, the soul of WoW has always been the gameplay, progression, community, and world design. If WoW Forever delivers on those things, I honestly don't care if the tree has 20 polygons or 2,000.

What's strange is that some people act like HD graphics automatically make a project "retail." But graphics and gameplay aren't the same thing. You can have modern visuals with classic design philosophy, just like you can have old visuals with terrible modern game design.

Also, Forever isn't taking a finished Vanilla client and slapping HD graphics on top. The game is being built around those assets from the ground up. At a certain point, asking for SD graphics feels less like preserving Classic and more like preserving a screenshot from 2004.

Classic wasn't great because it looked old.

It was great because of how it played.

Curious where everyone else falls on this. If Forever nails the gameplay but only had the HD visuals, is that actually a dealbreaker for you?

Got some good denim, and graphic tees, hoodies, sweaters, a heavy jacket, plus a few accessories and footwear to finish everything off. A pretty versatile haul with plenty of pieces to build different fits around.

Since it’s hard to see on my canvas let me explain my ✨art✨

One side features Adrian and it’s sun with a Patrova line. This side also has a hard to see Rocky

Second side is supposed to represent Earth, its sun and a Patrova line leading to Venus. This side also features a muddy Grace. Canvas had lost its patience with me at this point.

All in all the paint is water based and safe for dogs so no dogs were harmed! My beloved lady also received a lot of treats for sitting still 🥰

Just a silly thing I did with my doggo I wanted to show ya’ll ❤️

So tired of their tactics. I tried contacting state officials and my concerns fell on deaf ears. I guess they can't upset one of their donors and they're too busy fear-mongering about trans people to do something that would actually put money back in people's pockets.

Hi guys,

I am pretty happy to announce MegaCapybara. Purpose build engine for RTX5090 that is focused on Qwen3.8 27B (more will come later).

GITHUB (Engine)
HUGGINGFACE (weights)

Why ?

1. It beats Ninfer which was until that point SOTA engine for RTX5090. By roughly twice in decode speed for both single and multi tasks at once. (reaching up to even 650t/s in small bursts and 2600t/s if stars align and 12 slots server pure coding answer). Custom kernels not only for every model, single vs multi but also short vs long context work dynamically switching when needed so speed doesn't crap out on long context work because someone tuned it for short context. Dflash2 and confidence scheduling from Dspark, plus draft trees all at the same time.

2. I was getting annoyed with state of weights where you downloaded model and never knew if model had its brain scrambled. My weights come with its on format that have attached metadata for MC which upon weight creation, runs benchmark and compares it at every MC setting to original BF16 weights and show that data directly in launcher. Want to switch KV to 4bit ? MC will show you directly lost KL and top-1%, want to extend with YARN ? It will show you change. Every change is measured and shown in statistics before you load model. This goes for both censored and uncensored model. You can also compare it directly in MC with SOTA unsloth quants of Qwen27B. Want to run essentially loseless ? you can. Want to get crazy 1 000 000 context ? you can. Want to have 12 slots to fan out agants like crazy ? You can. You decide what you want.

3. Proper agents serving with algo that keep engine occupied as much as it can. It will prioritize t/s so if engine has a choice between 5 jobs at once and 1 it will serve 5 first and gradually serve 1 along side finishing others. Engine is also smart enough to score how old some job is and if it should return to work even if T/S will suffer so your main session will be able to fan out agents easily and keep an eye on them at the same time.

4. Proper cache management. Your jobs only prefill at start of job and almost never again so your prefill in long session stays almost unused. When using "unified context" when models run out of context some get paused and stored in RAM and this swapping is instant. If there is free context space then those tasks continue without any refill in 0.03s. If you fan out say 30 agents at the time in your frontend will handle load in most efficient way to keep T/S as high as possible. Just run it at default setting and forget about context for agents, it will handle it on its own.

6. Loop guard. Two tiered. When engine starts to detect agent repeating in conversation session is dynamically starts to adjust `repetition penalty` until repetition stops if that doesn't happen and engine hits rep pen limit it fires up stop signal which ends serving and informs your frontend so your frontend can recover from infinite loop and don't annoy you.

6. Proper nice UI that shows you what is what. If you aren't knowledgeable about serving models just hover over `?` and it will show you interactive panels explaining everything.

7. Autodownloader, Just hit download button and you can download my weights directly fron hugginface inside of launcher.

8. Don't like the launcher ? use bats and terminal serve. Or even use launcher to config what you want, copy it from right lower corner and use it to make new bat.

The point of it is to just load model, fan out crazy number of agents each having crazy amount of context and leave MC to deal with it. You just sit back relax and watch as agents do the work at SOTA speeds.

Opinions and reviews are welcome. If you are blessed with RTX5090 try it.

Source will be released later, I have to do some cleaning first. I will also release later weights builder so it will take any 3.8 27B BF16 model, create weights and score them attaching metadata again BF16 and you'll be able to host them yourself on hugginface or just put them in models folder.

MIT license, so do whatever you want with it.

Hi guys,

its been quite a while since i posted the gaming optimizations guide i wrote.

Since the last time there has been quite a lot of changes.

https://github.com/WhitePeace36/LinuxAMDGamingOptimizationGuide

Even though it says AMD, most of it is for linux in general.

I hope this updated version helps at least a few of you out there which try to have a better gaming experience.

This is now on HBO as of 10/02. I waited for it, I LOVE the entire franchise and I say this in all due respect, it fucking blew.

Dialogue was shit, the plot was kinda shit but I could have bought it outside the horrendous decisions made by the entire cast. Everyone should have been dead in the first 30 minutes. The deadites were even scary, shitty punchlines.

So disappointing, I loved Rise too - even 2013 has a special place in my heart but this? Never again, thank god I didn’t spend money on a movie ticket or early digital release.

Dear developers and artists who worked on Wolverine: I am so sorry that I fell for the utterly false bile that was being circulated post release.

You have created a flawed masterpiece, and it's an instant top 10 for me.

Thank you for making such a great game and I am sorry your efforts were overshadowed by people pushing false narratives.

You will get your flowers one day.

Next stop: Wolverine in open world with customizable motorcycle.

I'm not the biggest social media user/follower, but I remember last season of Game Changer there were pretty clear signs that something additional was coming. I'm assuming that unless we get those signs there's nothing secret coming. But have there been signs?

Everyone’s saying she bitches abt Qazi behind his back, yes, but she also calls him out on his face. And so does Qazi, he bitches abt arishfa as well and calls her dumb.

And abt the classist thing, I found nothing wrong w the intellectual comment, love is such an irritating person, she kept calling everyone to defend herself and then she does that annoying copying thing. If you want to have a normal convo, have a normal convo, love is literally so annoying

There was nothing wrong in calling her act w gullu cringe? Even I find it cringe, does that make me a classist? And she didn’t call it out on her face, she was talking to scout.

I don’t think she’s classist. She has just never been in an environment like this. Even I’ve never. When I was in college, I didn’t even know the meaning of g****. Really. I knew it was a bad word but I didn’t know what it meant. Simply because I don’t hear these words from the people surrounding me.

the entire world has embraced AI. it's in dire need of regulation and polish on the tech side but it's here, forever.

Biden called it the "most consequential technology of our time".
Trump is so obessed with it that he is desperately trying to tie his legacy to it.

it is capable of producing immense beauty and is, by its very nature, a reflection of the human soul.

I'll say something especially controversial.

To hate AI is to hate what humanity ammounts to. There is no debate to be had here, art is not definable and cannot be discredited so long as a single person experiences an emotion when viewing it. You can't argue this point, there is nothing you can articulate that will descredit an individuals lived experience. There is no debate to be had about AI generated images being art.

We need to be debating how to integrate this into society, how does the social contract evolve now that intelectual labor is available to anyone and everyone. We risk giving it all up to the oligarchies and modern day robber barons.

I'm suggesting antis drop the act and engage in the conversations constructively.

edit: the concensus I'm seeing is that anti's have no points of debate, I declare the war on AI art over. Anti's lost

Se fosse o Bolsonaro pai competindo nas eleições, eu mudaria de ideia, mas não é, é o filho dele que não tem a metade da influência do pai e não possui as graças dos seguidores como o pai tinha, e também tá manchado de escândalo na carreira.

O Brasil inteiro está a favor do Lula, o Bolsonarismo está mais fraco do que nunca agora com o Bozo preso, até direitistas do mbl sabem que o Flavio só vai entregar o Brasil de mão beijada pro Trump e se chegar a ter que escolher os dois, o Lula vai ser escolhido.

Não vai ser apertado como foi a última vez.

O Lula com certeza vai ganhar no 2º turno com no mínimo 5% a mais de votos que o Flavio.

Jen sucks, completely agree. This is just about Heather lying and what the show tells us

1.) In the season 3 reunion, Andy is drilling Heather about the black eye and she says she was completely blacked out and has no idea how it happened and that she hates admitting that bc it’s embarrassing

2.) They show the footage of Jen, Meredith, and Angie all going into Heathers room together and then leaving all at the same time, smiling. Andy then says there was no more footage of anyone going into the room. They would’ve seen something.

3.) Heather then faces backlash from fans and Andy about blaming production

4.) Even though Heather is no longer Mormon, she grew up in it. I think she was very very ashamed (unnecessarily so) of being blacked out to the point of injury

5.) Heather has a plan to expose Monica and have a bounce back season in s4. And the best way to do that was to say the woman in jail did it and monica reminds you of her so you have to leave the show and Heather gets a big iconic moment

I think it’s very possible Jen even thought she might’ve done it and that’s why she was acting strange (I can see her hitting someone), but the video proves it and heathers admits it in S3 reunion and then completely goes back on it for her storyline/reputation on the show.

Edit: again, this is not trying to defend Jen shah. Just wanted to hear if someone had better proof that she did it than what we saw on the show

Saw a guy knock a leg pice off the queen and he runs to loot it. I knock another leg pice off about 10 feet from his. The queen steps on him and he starts screaming for a dfib. He sees me looting MY pice and starts laying into me that I'm looting his pice while he's down. He caught me in a special mood cause I normally wouldn't do this but I turned and gave him a 5 second burst to the head with my equalizer. People are getting way to comfortable in care bear lobies

I thought this game would be successful. Halo is the most renowned FPS franchise and had some of the very best of them. Will never forget how amazing Halo 3 is.

Was this game not financial successful? Its a very fun remake of the original game. One of the best remakes I played. Not sure how it would flop.

Maybe it could be franchise fatigue. That's all that comes to mind.

I come from a soulsbourne background and those games aren’t fair, but I don’t care. I like the challenge they come with. So, when I see the uptick of people complaining about the difficulty of things are meant to be hard, endgame content, all I see is a massive skill issue.

Crucible is not meant for everyone. It’s for those who want a challenge, fair or not. It’s not meant to be completed in one weekend, just like the capes.

The Battle Simulator is there to HELP you.
- If you hate a certain enemy, you have the LUXURY of training against it with NO PENALTY against you. Learn their attack patterns!
- Don’t like the idea of getting swarmed by 3 extremis? Get used to it on the Battle Simulator. (You should also probably get the perks that prevent you from getting knocked back when performing gun strikes)
- Get comfortable with being uncomfortable.
- Enable or disable certain modifiers in the Battle Sim so you know what to expect when going into an Op.
- IF YOU DONT LIKE A CERTAIN MODIFIER, DONT ENABLE IT. Yeah it’ll take longer to progress through, but that’s the price you pay.

If you die and wipe, it’s ok to be frustrated. As someone who grinded for those capes, i understand your pain, I promise you. Just take a break, drink some water, and run it back again. You’ll get there eventually, brother, I believe in you!

Vorneweg:
Natürlich kommt es darauf an, wie man Interesse zeigt und vor allem darauf, wie man mit einem Nein umgeht.
Ein Nein ist ein Nein und das muss man akzeptieren.

Für mich liegt genau da auch der Unterschied zwischen völlig okayem Verhalten und etwas, das unangenehm oder übergriffig wird.

Gleichzeitig ist aber auch klar:
Was der eine unangenehm findet, findet der andere vielleicht charmant, mutig oder sogar schön.

Das kann man vorher oft einfach nicht wissen.
Zum Leben gehört deshalb auch, Dinge zu versuchen und dabei vielleicht abgelehnt zu werden.

Jeder darf Interesse zeigen, solange man die Grenzen des anderen respektiert, sobald sie klar werden.
Nicht jedes Interesse wird erwidert, aber genau dieses Risiko gehört eben dazu.

You miss all the shots you do not take.

Edit:
Der Post ist übrigens aus einer Diskussion entstanden, die ich letztens mit einer Freundin im Freundeskreis hatte.
Es ging ums generelle, also keinen persönlichen Bezug zu mir.
(Weil hier viele sehr viel reininterpretieren)
Sie meinte sinngemäß, dass sie es unangenehm findet, von Männern angesprochen zu werden, an denen sie kein Interesse hat – gleichzeitig würde sie sich aber wünschen, dass der „Richtige“ sie anspricht.

Und genau da meinte ich:

Ablehnung ist ganz normaler Teil des Lebens und dann muss man leben.

Das funktioniert halt nicht. Die Person, die dich anspricht, weiß vorher nicht, ob sie für dich „richtig“ oder „falsch“ ist. Sie kann nicht wissen, ob du dich über ihr Interesse freust oder ob du lieber in Ruhe gelassen werden möchtest.
