    Well, Dom Blow and Absolution both have trans versions that are... kinda OP and abusable and nobody seems to like to use.

    Path of Exile

    I'm going to guess that this does not work on added damage on skill/support gems... but if it does... It seems ripe for abuse either way.

    Gonna be some pretty OP shit this patch. These new supports look significantly stronger.

    So after waiting the weekend and then having a major snowstorm that shut down everything I finally saw the doctor today. Retina looks good, apparently I have "post op debris" in my eye. Whatever the fuck that is. But it seems at least I won't require more surgery, just need to use the prednisone...

    I don't think this will end up as meandering subplots or side stories, hopefully. The first two episodes of this season spent time showing us what happened outside of the dome and how people survived. And it only really introduced 1 new, connected piece of the story and the characters that will...

    Nice but underwhelming. Trans Gem change and new guaranteed loot in campaign are the only changes that move the needle for me but the other stuff is nice Im sure.

    I like this show and think showing the outside world this soon is the right choice so those characters and storylines get appropriate screen time. Story is interesting, characters are interesting, acting is mostly pretty good. The only exception being Sinatra. Both the way that character is...

    Uncharted 4 was fine. It was maybe slightly better than 3, but it was nowhere near as good as 1 or 2. 2 being one of my favorite games of all time and the story/dialogue/cutscenes/characters in the first 2 are great.

    Spirit Shield is an engdame RW, Monarch, Aegis and Ward are the only non paladin 4soc shields. And they all require a lot of strength to equip.

    Haha they actually go out of their way to suggest it's not anything they'd use as a company. If it's not something you'd use... what's the fucking point?

    I love that, a technical recruiter with no technical experience. Adding nothing but overhead and waste to the entire process. Making it more difficult for people like us to get in contact with people we'd actually be working with/for.

    I wonder if we're going to find out that these "recruiters" are actually working directly at these companies and they are literally just sending out snippets of actual business requirements disguised as "test interview coding assignments". Then they collate the results from all these and use it...

    There's a guy I golf with like that, the dude is 83 and still walks and carries his bag for 18 holes. And if you ever met him, you would be shocked to find out how old he is. He looks like he's in his 60s. Coincidentally he and his wife are big skiers. Maybe there's something to that sport.

    We're in a timeline where remakes and remasters are both prevalent and dominant. They sell incredibly well and are low hanging fruit. So asking "what else was left to remake" is kind of a rhetorical question. The answer is quite honestly anything and everything. But if you needed a concrete...

    Nobody, absolutely nobody can tell if AI is accurately priced or not because nobody has any clue how any individual, or company, will utilize it or how effectively they've deployed it. Pretending to know if AI is accurately priced or even suggesting it, does nothing more than illustrate a...

    Have you ever watched one of the McConaughey/Harrelson Agentforce commercials? It's pretty obvious Salesforce has no idea what AI is/can be capable of and is just trying to package and sell mediocre software as AI. You need AI to check the weather bro. Rudimentary software hasn't been able to...

    Been a long time since I've felt this bummed out. Been about 3.5 weeks since my eye procedure, couldn't see much of anything at all until a few days ago (expected part of the healing process).

    I don't care about MnM and arguing with dipshits who pretend they like "old school" mechanics when in reality they just want to lord their playtime over everyone else because they *think* they will be on the right side of the resource hogging is a fool's errand. I just happened to click the...

    It exists, but at such a small scale because of aggressive anti-cheat policies it hardly effects the game economy at all. PD2 had ~15k concurrent users and 24k viewers on Twitch this past season launch. It maintained 10k concurrent online users for weeks into the season as well. Just as a...

    It actually says right in the article exactly why they want to do it. And its BANANAS They view unrealized gains as lost revenue. They are insane.

    It's just the gains but you could, in worst case scenarios, actually get taxed to past zero. You invest in a security, $100k. It skyrockets 300% one year. You think it's going to continue to go up, so you only sell what you have to in order to cover your unrealized gains tax. It craters the...

    Its completely absurd. Doesn't seem like there is any provision for liquidity issues either, so if you can't afford the tax bill on your unrealized gains you'll have to sell to cover it which then also triggers another tax event the following year?

    Where's my tax rebate for unrealized losses? EDIT: Oh they actually are doing that "Also, if an investor incurs a net loss in a given year, that loss can be carried forward and used to reduce taxable gains in any future year, with no time limit. Only losses exceeding €500 qualify for this...

    We use Snyk, it isn't preventing AI from doing much of anything. It's utilized when we create pull requests to check for security flaws in the code being pushed but that's it. Then the code gets pushed to our repositories which github copilot has full access to. It's a lot like using the...

    Well, how would sponsored/approved use of AI agents come back on you? Unless you mean your company isn't paying for any AI agents/tooling and you'd be using public/free resources. Most of us are working at companies that are very literally shoving AI down our throats and even taking steps to...
