I was just looking at char creation and thinking about race / class / god combos. I was trying to figure out why they restricted Deity options so much, and it reminded me of creating a brand new character in D&D, where you are just arriving at adulthood and setting out on your own. Your Deity...

The magnet up / down stuff in the video was the smooshing :D I didn't know about that place but I'm thinking more stuff that would fit inside one of asml's lithography machines.

I'll be sure to tell it again next year. I'm old and senile and won't remember posting it, and all of you are also old and senile and won't remember reading it. I'll bet the guy went on to do great things though once he kicked his habit. He was a really good physics coder.

We've got some big brains on this board, so lets solve a little engineering problem: How to make xray / gamma ray lasers! Why should we do this? Because it will make it easier to make better chips! And we need more / cheaper gpus! So I'm thinking what we need is a way to attach a charge to...

I just woke up from a dream where someone said "Hey Harmon is back in EQ!". This necessitates story time: Harmon was a coworker, and like all coworkers he dabbled in everquest. I can't really remember if this was launch or beta days but the company we worked for collapsed and we all got the...

Yes, but it is just a feeling really. It feels vague and wavy and seems to follow q information rules. I'd love to be wrong though. I'm a big fan of the old ghost in the shell stuff.

I don't think consciousness will ever be transferrable to a different substrate. It looks to me like a quantum phenomenon. However memories might be doable, and that would be very useful. My ideal use case would be a during-sleep download of the day's memories in detail consolidating older...

The title reveals alot, though they could just throw it all out wheel of time style and just make shit up. The history of this time was deeply sad as most of the very best people died here. I don't necessarily mean big heroes or generals, just large numbers of high elves. The way I would do...

More throwback matches to tide us over:

Dwarf wizards! Iksar paladins! Gnome monks!

I really kind of do miss the old orgs like fnatic and rogue and envy and such. As cool as the live city events were the travel was brutal (and was supposed to get alot worse) and that first season blizz arena magic was so good. I think it has grown beyond the small teams though. Need those...

The overall spectacle of it all has gone way down true. I blame the rona. But there were some amazing matches this year. The level went up overall tremendously. Some of the stages were a turd stew of bad meta and bad hero pool but were still watchable. This coming year will solve that as...

Well, shit. I wonder how microsoft will handle the overwatch league?

I noticed even Unreal 5 needs and loads all assets for the map in memory. Maybe if you dug down into the guts you could fix that. All it should really need is the collision hull for server side line of sight checks and pathing and such.

The eco RP stuff has been really funny. Burke and Haley are running a continent and Gassy has his chive org. There has already been some fun drama. Dr. Gluon has a news crew roving about interviewing people. There are two newspapers that support one side or the other: Bikeman has started...

There was alot of mystery about chunking back in the day. Like what could they possibly be doing to make it this slow kind of mystery. I dug into it with performance tools (probably vtune, this was ages ago) and found that most of the time was compiling shader code. The post might be on this...

The late shift's eco adventures start tonight at some point. Should be really good. They made alot of custom mods for it, like cop profession and lockpicks and brewing.

Keggers! Does the elevator kill you? That would be classic.

VRChat board meetup when? :D

I told you bowl cuts were the best for esports. #1 is very close to one.

I greatly approve of this revival.

Mousey and Nyan doing elimination dating in half an hour or so:

BTW there are 3 of those bonus missions with Lamar. I thought it was over after the first one. My companion said they stole the idea for the 3rd from a cheech & chong movie :emoji_laughing:

There might be an Ironmouse / Nyanners elimination dating thing this week. That should be really good.

I'm very very late to this party. Oculus eventually forced my hand as they use some dodgy dns stuff that killed < 10 compat. Anyway, I hate it, and have been fighting it nonstop since I installed it. My main problem is that I use the active state of my OS as my "context". It's my memory. I...

Until I saw the picture, I just assumed this all happened in VRChat

Damn I think Soda got banned. It was very entertaining though. Oops no he didn't, vod is still there

Looks like it might be happening:

Vei is going to participate in roflgator's dating show thing with soda there as an advisor or something? That could get really funny. Ordinarily that would be around 6ish - 8ish hours from now but she's british so maybe they will do it earlier? I can't imagine those degens getting out of bed...

Losing is fun!

I decided to rewatch all the episodes to get ready for the 8th. This was a grave error. My advice is to drink heavily before watching if you do.

The late shift guys are playing Eco again some time in january. Really looking forward to that. Last time they brought in alot of smaller streamers and there was all kinds of fun drama over competition between shops and industrial stuff polluting and people chopping down too many trees etc.

I'm more game loyal than streamer loyal. If someone is playing something I'm interested in I'll watch. I mostly watch vtubers when they are doing something unusual, like a strange indie game or something very out of character like GTA. Watching the shrine maiden Sakura Miko running people the...

Long vid on giants

The complete failure of the guys with the tools question was pure comedy

This is chaos. I'm not sure what this will turn into:

Roof door fixed, and you can pet chop! Maybe you just can't pet when he's in his little box.

Hahaha I thought I was done but there's a really cool bonus mission.

It does matchmake but you can set it to closed and do it all solo. I finished it today, and it was really fun. I'm sure if you were a Dre fan (and I can't imagine many on this forum) it would be extra special. You get to hear some new material. I got a million payout for the final, and a...
