    lmao, they haven't fixed anything and instead published a busted ass DLC? Sad.

    Fallout - New Vegas

    I don't know if Project Nevada is still supported, but I wouldn't play FNV again without it. https://www.nexusmods.com/newvegas/mods/40040 I also loved Warzones, but it kinda makes the game over the top for a first playthrough. https://www.nexusmods.com/newvegas/mods/40980

    I think having one nasty CME go through your factory enriches the experience. What happens to your Factorissimo buildings when they get btfo?

    yep. And if you're focusing on one thing, you'll be tempted to overbuild it to shit just to "finish" it before moving on. OR endlessly tweaking and watching it while ignoring the rest of your factory. Or building it and it'll break immediately because of one wrong circuit or wrong inserter...

    Behold, Chungus S.S., which will take me beyond the stars. I'm trying to figure out how to get to an asteroid field in deep space to get that sweet, sweet naquitite and have no idea what I'm doing. At least this is an embarrasing piece of turd I know sucks from the get go.

    The redo never ends for me, lol. This entire game I've been thinking, "OK I unlocked XXX, now I can build the last of these factories". Then I either unlock a new tech, change demand or just learn more about the game and then look at my previously built masterpiece in disgust. The introduction...

    Speaking of spending hours fixing things that aren't broken, I rehauled my rocket transmissions from my mall on Nauvis. Like most SE players, in my factory each planet outpost has its own rocket landing that receives all the items for the outpost. Unlike most players, I built the Nauvis side to...

    I'm at almost 700 hours. It's on the higher side of K2SE players from what I gather. I barely played Factorio before starting it and am playing ineffectively. I've realized that although agonizing over the details of each factory is mostly a waste of time, it's the part I enjoy the most. I've...

    So I toyed with the idea of compressing trains even further and tried adding multiple inputs to my train. I just built my Matter 1 science using this idea and am pretty excited about it. There are three train stations that have three inputs each and one that has two inputs, letting me...

    I finished scanning Koskomino, my first planet I'm eradicating biters on. It's huge, a radius of 8049 and with a threat of 33% that's a loooot of biters. Going to be a while even with 130 GW or whatever of beam emitters exterminating bugs. I'm not ramping up more solar emitters because I still...

    Joker: Folie à Deux (2024)

    It's funny how many tv shows and movies I won't bother considering, regardless of reviews, unless people here say it's good. I didn't watch the first movie and the sequel is one of those movies.

    I use pre-Luclin models for everything, which means I can't tell any level of prestige from armor since everyone has long ago dyed what they want. Like Rajaah said ornamentations killed any prestige from weapons because even if you loot a mega weapon from a raid expansion and chose not to put an...

    Hello fellow late 30 year olds and 40 year olds. I see father time is also fucking you over. I've been curious about this topic for a bit but haven't thoroughly researched it yet. Like most of you I want to create a good checklist of de-aging. Recently I've been: Eating whole foods I create...

    EQ TLP 2024 Teek (Random loot) & Tormax (Traditional) #neckbeardnostalgia

    I'm guessing there's server congestion that isn't alleviated by picks, which is why they introduce queues, but I'm also kinda curious what would happen if they didn't have queues and what could be done to alleviate that type of congestion.

    EQ TLP 2024 Teek (Random loot) & Tormax (Traditional) #neckbeardnostalgia

    At some level the best thing for "EverQuest" is if DPG goes down and the EQ IP is abandoned or becomes totally different. Doing something to open source DBG's version of EQ and collaborate with the EQ emu communities would produce much better than the skeleton crew being paid wage slaves is...

    Everquest - Live Servers

    I always thought that was an underutilized feature. It'd be interesting if they tried giving players an option to have a specific color (ex: Orange) if they got all the achievements for a given expansion (including Vanquisher), maxed out the evolving item for an expansion, etc. There's not...

    Good luck on the circuits for transmitting stuff. It's pretty rewarding to get it all to work. I think the way I did it is dumb but I don't want to redo it all. For randomization I don't know.

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

    Comparing two specific things isn't bad. These are perfectly serviceable jokes if used as part of a larger bit as a callback. Write a list of Mitch Hedburg one liners comparing simulation theory with donuts. The one liner should make a unique observation that's mostly false but has a nugget of...

    Write a list of Mitch Hedburg one liners about simulation theory. The one liner should make a unique observation in a humorous way that is only partially true. I kept asking for more, they all produced the same kind of generic comedic observations that aren't the crazy stuff Hedburg would...

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

    In terms of a comedic writer utilizing an LLM, if you're a person of moderate comedic talent and are tasked with coming up with a list of 5 Hedburg lines about food. How quickly could you come up with them independently vs having an LLM generate hundreds that you parse to get it? Also here's a...

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

    Just for fun. These passages are understandable, so they kind of missed the mark. If I can understand them without having to pretend it's not chaos, it's not authentic. Write a story from a POV of Pacman from Pacman. Please include technical details of what Pacman has in Pacman into the story...

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

    I can definitely see LLMs blowing the fuck out of the comedic writing scene. So much of comedy is association based, which an LLM might be *really* good at. I can definitely see a future where writers spend a good deal of their time panning for gold with an LLM.

    Much like doing midjourney prompts with different artists, doing the same writing prompts with different authors is interesting. I can imagine a professor getting in deep shit doing that in some undergrad English class by having students read some passages from ~10 authors, read a generated...

    EQ TLP 2024 Teek (Random loot) & Tormax (Traditional) #neckbeardnostalgia

    Tormax being Teek with FTE + open boxing would be the exact kind of easy win that DPG would ignore.

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

    I think a key factor is not just describing what the story should consist of, but the prose the story or different segments are written in. Without multiple and different prompts that are later combined the story comes out soulless. One way to "cheat" with writing prompts is to use famous...

    I'm glad it's not on Teek, but I'm a little disappointed it's not on Tormax (along with making Tormax more desirable like relaxing the boxing rules). I'd want to see what FTE would do in a more contested environment, which Oakwynd was not. I think it'd be interesting if they AB tested a more...

    I use LTN instead of CyberSyn but I regular have lockups in my network and everytime I do it's because of an error in my network that, when corrected, should make the same problem theoretically impossible, though intense congestion can cause lockups. It's pretty satisfying that it almost never...
