I think GW2 is the best single-player MMO. I just do my own thing and pretty much ignore everyone around me.

Yeah, I would think any threat to the collective would mean instant elimination. I like the show so far, but wondering what the social commentary is. To me it seems like an allegory of AI and robotics.

Wow that last few seconds. How is that allowed?

I think they did like 'em fat back then.

For those of you using CachyOS, have you had the desktop interface completely freeze up (I'm using Plasma)? You think the computer has frozen, but it's still alive -- caps lock will still toggle the light, and if you CTRL-ALT-F2/F3 you will eventually drop to a command prompt instance where you...

This latest episode had me crying from laughing so hard. Him freaking out over the cops at his house was so over the top.

How is character progression handled? What about items and gear? Do they carry over to subsequent runs?

My question is, would children be using it liberally? I don't know. Just saying, as a kid during the 80s, I was pretty much oblivious to that word.

OMG. "F" word means "fuck". Good grief.

I thought this was fine. Disappointed if there were actual deaths at the end because I liked those kids. One thing I really dislike is the use of anachronistic swearing in period settings... it completely takes me out of it. Or maybe I was just sheltered as a child, but I don’t remember...

I wouldn't mind seeing a series with older versions of the heroes, like in Kingdom Come. Although I imagine it wouldn't appeal to younger viewers (but begs the question does the current stuff appeal to them? Seems not.)

I don't know, I enjoyed it. Ending was rather 'meh' though.

I used to build Gentoo from source. I think that's how it worked.

Are you running the Plasma desktop? Linux Mint's default is Cinnamon which I quite like. But decided to try out Plasma and it's pretty kick ass. I've never been a big fan of KDE, but it's been years since I've played with it.

I did an upgrade during Prime Day, got a new B850 motherboard and Ryzen 9 7900x. I typically go with Linux Mint, but...here we go: audio wasn't working. Apparently lacks support for the new Realtek ALC4080 chipset and I could NOT get it to work. So, installed the new flavor of the month...

The Mist is one of my favorite horror movies. Short story it's based on was great as well.

It's all long term. I sold enough to cover my original investment plus a tiny bit of profit.

We had another RIF this week. The test department manager and a couple of senior testers were let go, while the devs went untouched.

That's why I came to despise Windows 11. Inconsistent look of the menus and dialogs. Just a mishmash of new and old styling.

Need some advice: I hold several positions that have become very lofty (significantly appreciated). I’m reluctant to sell outright, but I recognize the need to lock in some profits. Instead, I’m considering selling covered calls on a portion of these positions. If I were selling shares...

Yeah for me it was local, so it was wide open.

We were coding in Lua for OpenWRT based routers. Dude was using vi for that coding directly on the router. I just mapped a sshfs drive and used Webstorm with a Lua plugin. Not a big deal.

What if I want to find all references to a public method? What if I need to dig into a base class and explore its overrides? What about debugging... can you step through the code and view variable assignments, etc?

Fuck no. An asshole at work wrote an entire codebase with "vi" and it was the biggest god damn mess I've ever seen. Kept telling me, "You'll learn to love it." I can appreciate the hate for the older Visual Studio, which has become extremely bloated. I personally use the JetBrains suite of...

And why were they bothering looking for a Earth-like planet? If they *really* want to be rid of meta humans then throw them in the black hole door. No coming back from that period.

We're years away. Not suggesting this is happening overnight. And, Antropic's "Imagine" feature is where things are headed imo. There is no "application software". It's just data, and the AI will render whatever's necessary to fulfill the user's request.

I'm picturing user interfaces ditching the old desktop metaphor for something like Star Trek, where we just chat with AI, saying "show me this" or "do that," and it understands us... fast, natural, and super intuitive. No more clicking through menus.

Vanessa Kirby has that same plastic look. Very distracting.

For me the biggest twist is discovering it's a dude singing the theme song?

I just check every page. There's only 36 of them.

This was cancelled FYI. And I'm fairly certain there already exists a thread for this.

Thoughts? Finally below MSRP. Was hoping for the XT but they are still up there in price. Nevermind! PowerColor XT for $639. Close enough.

Based on the Amazon Prime Day deals, now looking at: I realize the 7900X is Zen4, but doesn't seem Zen5 was a huge upgrade anyway? Alternate choice is the AMD Ryzen 7 7800X3D which is on sale for $338.

Based on my research, I don't think that's true. But regardless, this PC will have a 6700 XT. I'm sure that's more than sufficient.

Alright, this is what I'm thinking about going with. Again, this isn't a gaming PC, mostly just a workstation for some software dev tinkering and the aforementioned Thinkorswim trading platform. Waiting on Prime Day to see if any of this stuff goes on sale. Also, decided on a 9700x instead of...

Has anyone checked out Claude 4.5 Sonnet's "Imagine" feature? I thought it was pretty dang amazing, and it lends to the idea that, in the future, applications will be created on the fly based on the backend data. I'm a software developer and our product owner is hinting at wanting us to update...

I'm not gaming on this PC, I have another for that. The main application that I want to run as best as possible is the Thinkorswim trading platform. It's a Java-based application and its performance is already God awful. From my understanding, single core performance is all that matters for...

Btw, what's up with ASUS? In the past, I usually went with Gigabyte or MSI anyway, as I had always seen ASUS as a premium brand and a bit overpriced.

Yeah I'm thinking of going with the Ryzen 9900X and a MSI Tomahawk board.
