    Home Improvement

    I've had some thoughts about this as it's been a frequent issue since buying a home. My dad has more know-how and tools than I do. I don't know how he compares to his dad. I've done a terrible job at imparting my limited knowledge to my kid, in part because he hasn't shown interest and I know...

    Why not also use the sulphite scarab for essentially 3 more ore deposits?

    Malazan Book Of The Fallen

    Weird choice for cover art, if I'm understanding what scene it's depicting. That guy stumbled into the Beast Hold, freed a chained up god, who then slaughters a nest of K'Chain Che'Malle. But I don't remember that having much relevance to the main plot.

    IT/Software career thread: Invert binary trees for dollars.

    Is this analogous to Cloud pullback, but perhaps much more painful? I disagree with executives having to come to terms. Golden parachutes, not my problem. Managers and engineers will get canned, however.

    I've been having more fun than I anticipated with aurabot and kb merc. The merc is hyper aggressive, not quite the same targeting range as bama, but a far superior skill. I'd recommend giving a try. Its hard to understand how fun an auto targeting kb machine gun is. I'm almost certain merca go...

    If only Kirun put as much effort into staying informed as he does....wtf does Kirun actually put effort into? Even the trolling has been low effort lately. Anyway, they said the towers are staying for 0.3.0. They know people don't like them, but they pulled the classic GGG. If they try to...

    IT/Software career thread: Invert binary trees for dollars.

    Is it not standard to emergency shutdown when certain temperatures are met? Maybe it's not. The server room at a previous job had a similar AC malfunction. Smoke and scorched hardware were involved before any humans noticed. And rather than learning their lesson, it happened again.

    Wasn't that part of the WW2 treaty? I was distracted, I was thinking purely from the context of how you would exaggerate a tracer's effects. Yes, it's probably done all in post.

    Ok, but why can't I sell, on the currency exchange, the reports at the ctrl+d price?

    That movie really highlights them. I wouldn't be surprised if they did something in post or idk, put more magnesium on them.

    I price check my kirac reports and they almost all say 5c per. That's definitely higher than normal and I thought it was because of kirac memories being added to the pool. Put some up on a currency exchange and they won't move at 4c per. What's going on here? Seems like too common an item to...

    AI: The Rise of the Machines... Or Just a Lot of Overhyped Chatbots?

    We've discussed this previously in this thread and it's actually applicable here as current day news doesn't need to be 'archived'. Sources that want to be taken as trustworthy will need to cryptographically sign electronic media. This is already an expense of doing business these days as...

    It is dumb and does detract from the overall experience, especially when build enabling uniques are subject to supply and demand swings, scalpers, and price fixers. That said, it isn't THE game. Once you're past the initial farming stage of gearing a character that can handle juicing T16(T16...

    More big brain shit. Also, like this guy's channel. Shame it requires a T17 and Uber Elder drop and the market has already reacted.

    It seems folly to develop Ruthless mode, see how unreceptive the playerbase was to it, and then think a commercially successful game can be made from the same base design decisions. Do you guys like gem swapping? How about merc swapping? Probably the endgame build for people that like to...

    Yeah, that might work. I hadn't considered that because he said Cloak of Flames was required. I haven't looked into Enmity at all.

    CWDT has a level limit, did you over level the spells you're trying to proc? Frost Shield and Sigil of Power on a flicker strike build seems odd.

    I wouldn't use the size of compiled binaries as indication of much. Build options, compilers, and system headers can influence the resulting binary and its size while maintaining the exact same functionality.

    What's even gayer is that I'm using UO to unfuck their UI. Monstrous tiles(3 per row on a regular widescreen), no tag filtering, font size too big. I can definitely tell youtube takes longer to load with UO enabled. It's the only website that takes so long that my ADD will distract me to a...

    I can't go back to 3.25 and check, but I'm 99% certain they stealth nerfed Master Surgeon. Or, some idiot backported life flask behavior from PoE2. You can no longer enable a life flask at full life with Master Surgeon enabled. This is the assumed default behavior in PoE2. And I'm pretty...
