2024.05.16 15:13 MinecraftSexUpdate [GUIDE] Enjoy GAMING again by ruining the fun of sexhavers and foids
Are you a gamer? Want to take out on normies, sexhavers, and foids that infest what used to be OUR hobby? Those of us born in the 80's will remember a time when being a gamer was scorned. We were bullied, chastised, and shunned from our peer groups for enjoying video games. This would last up until the mid to late 90's when the media finally started pushing games to "dudebros" and eventually women in the early to mid 2000's. Finally in the past 10 years we've seen an infestation of shitskins and third worlders completely flooding everything. I refuse to lay down and die. I will stand and fight till the bitter end.
It's time to turn the tables and make them suffer as they made us suffer, both in life and the virtual world. (Legally and within the confines of the game, this is NOT a guide to IRL ruinate or anything of the sort.) Some of this stuff isn't allowed if you're an EU gamer.
First off, you're going to have to let go of playing video games to "win" or acquire virtual greed. You're going to need a new mindset. The mindset of a sadistic psychopath hellbent on extracting keks from anyone and everyone deemed not one of us. No more giving a fuck about your KDA, w/l ratio, or "following the rules" or the "meta" of what other players expect you to do. You are a gamer going your own way, regardless of what the groupthink expects or wants. If the game is F2P or you're a richfag or jewtuber who can get free games from devs then being banned is part of the fun, and is expected of you. If you cannot afford to buy back into games or are too technologically retarded to change your IP and spoof your hardware to get around bans in F2P games then you'll have to tread carefully.
Here's the part where I instruct you on how to fuck over these sexhavers for your own sadistic pleasure. After all they've denied us a life worth living in the real world and treat us like lepers. It's time they feel uncomfortable in OUR space. Feel free to add to any of these methods or pitch in ideas.
Foid infested "cozy" games Shit like "Animal Crossing" or "Palia." Anything that lets you decorate and grow shit is a "cozy" game and women infest these games more than any other. It's literally a containment game of sorts to keep them out of other shit. To fuck with women in these games all you have to do is steal resources, build ugly and annoying things within the game world, be rude via emotes and text chat, and use emotes to make it look like your character is grabbing their tits or eating them out. I once did /eat to some slag girl gamer in WoW Vanilla 20 years ago and when I reverse searched my name she was bitching about it on reddit and remembered my characters exact name 4-5 years ago. She's STILL SEETHING about it 15 years later. This is what you want. Virtual RAPE. Many foids stream these types of games, and it's incredibly easy to get under their skin. Make the ugliest characters you possibly can and always stand in their camera. Stalk them in-game. Uglify the world around them. Spam emotes. The world is your oyster.
MMORPG's World of Warcraft, or anything else really. Gank them. Corpse camp them. Dispel their world buffs. Emote spam sexually assault them. Use a high level or highly geared character to camp low level quest zones and steal mobs, resources, and kill low level players. Stream snipe them till they hide their screen with nothingness. Join their guilds and steal their resources after faking being a Chad. Get the entire guild wiped, blame it on the women healers. Play a vital role and underperform / disconnect at pivotal moments and blame a thunderstorm. Make everyone wait on your actions, but not enough to get gkicked. Openly challenge sex havers lifestyles in discord voice calls and call them out on their privileged bullshit. (Genetics, riches, went to a nice school, raised by good parents, etc.) Use every underbelly evil shithead tactic that these fuckers used towards us during our childhoods and young adult lives. Roleplay it up and lie about your IRL self to make them feel inferior. Exploit early and often, and cash out via RMT before you get banned or when you quit for some NEET bucks. If the game has a "random queue" system you can wipe endless groups or refuse to participate and hold entire game lobbies hostage.
FPS Overwatch, Counter Strike, etc. Simply play terribly in ranked matches. Don't assist the team. Mic spam. Play vital roles like tank or healer then simply don't heal and tell them openly on the mic to beg if they want heals. Refuse to play at all if a woman is in voice chat. Verbally accost every white knight that defends her. Remember, they're most likely wagies who have to go to work tomorrow and you're most likely a NEET who has infinite free time. Remind them of this. (Even if it's not true.) In FPS with one life, openly tell the enemy team where your team mates are camping. Use aimbots, wall hacks, and other cheats to make both sides pissed off. If you're doing well gloat. If you're playing shittily, then call them a loser or a nerd. Flashbang your own team. Drop objective items as far as possible. Die with expensive guns (Auto sniper in CS triggers normies.) and make sure the enemy acquires them. Acquire or goad team mates into team killing you to 2 week ban them.
MOBA / RTS League, Dota 2, Age of Empires, and other slop. Never go to the "meta" lane. (AD carry / support normally go bottom lane, but you're gonna always go middle, and steal your own teams jungle.) Never build the right items. Feed the enemy team, kill steal your own. Never push lanes or objectives. Ping spam. Keep text chats very "safe" to avoid bans. When a team mate dies, some ping spam and a "?" goes a long way. Never agree to surrender, unless your team is winning. Always report everyone who rages on you. Play characters that have statistically low win rates or are extra annoying. Use a lag switch to delay and hold entire lobbies hostage (RTS). Wall in your own team. Use retarded high risk low reward build orders. Be completely useless all of the time and never join team fights except after everyone's dead then schizo gaslight them that they were the ones not helping.
Survival, Crafting / Building Games Minecraft, and shit like it. Become insanely super godlike good at the game. Learn all the metas, muscle memory, speed run tech, and master PvP. Join reddit servers and ruinate months of "cozy crafting" with max enchanted equipment and masterful grief tactics. Construct server destroying redstone machines. Completely ruin spawn and active players bases while they're offline. Destroy their VIP / pay 2 win "donation" special items. Join their discords and spam anti-vax, anti-pitbull, and black people violence webms from rekt threads on 4chan to get their servers shut down. Literally use modded hacked clients to ESP radar hack and dupe your way to victory, kicking down reddit twerps virtual sand castles and record the seethe in their discord voice chats while pretending you don't know what's going on. Abuse and exploit anything you can to the detriment of other players (Shittily coded cash shops and stores. RPG elements that are 100% broken, like a "health swap" spell that you can use on any god-geared player to swap your 1/2 heart health with their full HP then 1 shot them naked kinda shit.)
Indie slop None of these games have any cheat protection. Cheat Engine even the most basic shit. I once played some slop card game and was able to set my opponents HP at the start of the game to 0 and win immediately. You can pretty much speed hack on all of this shit and most hack sites will have a few dedicated cheat bros that can do the wildest shit like gain access to admin panels and other destructive things. Even without cheats most basic exploits can really break these games. If a dupe method worked on one shitty survival Unreal 5 sloppa game, chances are it works on the other 7,000.
VR / Roleplay shit Fondle titties. When the white knights run up and shout "back off" loudly point and laugh at them. Force feed slags coconut drinks. Put your arm around everyone and get really up close in their face. Make fun of their furfag outfits. Call them trannies. Take a right wing stance on everything. Use cheats to spam gore and porn everywhere. Use mod menus (Cheats) to force other players to emote or spawn giant laggy objects and explosions. Always talk shit in VOIP and spam soundboards. Be as annoying and as insufferable as possible.
Single Player Games Okay, so this one's hard to "troll" but there's still ways to do it. You gotta share stuff in normie spaces that will offend and upset them. There was a guy that played Red Dead 2 and brutually murdered and tortured the "women have a right to vote" NPC to the point where he got banned off jewtube for it cause it pissed off so many redditors. You're gonna have to be real creative with this one. If you're a jewtuber you can intentionally kill off all the gay NPC's in Baldurs Gate 3 or something during your streams or playthroughs and watch the seethe roll in. Or make misleading and untrue guides or push a narrative you'd prefer to see and post them to normie sites to really stick it to 'em.
Please, feel free to share your ways of griefing and trolling foids and sexhavers within the confines of the video game. Since we can't be happy in real life, the least we can do is make their virtual lives closer to ours. Give them a taste of their own medicine. The only joy I have left in life is making others seethe in video games, because what the fuck else is there to do?

2024.05.16 15:08 EFdevse Create a symlink for the ext sdcard
So, in my new tablet I have an ext sdcard - which I didn't have in my phone. Since it shows up under /storage as NXNN-XNXN:
Is there anyway to get this to stick? Or any other way/path to access the card w/o having to remember the randomized name?

$ ls /storage NXNN-XNXN emulated self..I thought adding a symlink to it would be a great/smart solution to use when using pushpull.
$ cd /storage && ln -s NXNN-XNXN sdcard && ls -l total 132 drwxrwx--- 20 root everybody 131072 2024-05-16 01:32 NXNN-XNXN drwx--x--x 4 root everybody 4096 2024-05-10 11:56 emulated lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 9 2024-05-16 13:49 sdcard -> NXNN-XNXN drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 60 2024-05-16 01:31 selfThat way I can separate them by /sdcard (int) and /storage/sdcard (ext). But, the system seems to be an immutable system, so it gets lost on reboot.

2024.05.16 15:06 serose04 Comprehensive From the Ashes guide
 | I feel like there is no guide to rebuilding Pribyslavitz that would be simple and straight to the point. That would cover everything you need to know, but only things the game itself doesn't tell you. So I decided to make one. I hope you'll find it useful. The guide is also on Steam, I would appreciate you giving it like over there as well. submitted by serose04 to kingdomcome [link] [comments] IntroducitonThis guide is the result of a deep analysis of From the Ashes DLC that I made.It covers following topics:
DisclaimerSome quests that are not part of FtA DLC can affect your ability to achieve the highest income. These quests are:
Details about these quests are described further. If you are planning on achieving maximum possible income from Pribyslavitz I strongly recommend you read this guide before doing any of the aforementioned quests. What to buildDuring the reconstruction you will have to make 3 decisions as to what you want to build. These decisions are:
Swordsmith or Armoursmith Swordsmith will provide you with the best sword in the game – Tusk. Armoursmith will provide you with the best shield in the game – Boarback shield. These are the only unique items you can get from forge, everything else can be found elsewhere in the game. Which means the decision should be made according to your playstyle. Armoursmith can theoretically make you 10 gr. more than swordsmith, but this difference is so small you should neglect it. Stables or Guardhouse Most difficult decision. At first stables seem like a clear winner. It makes more money, allows you to choose from 3 new horses and provides some special horse tack that cannot be found anywhere else in the game. However. I strongly advise you to consider building guardhouse instead and here’s why. The overall income difference between stables and guardhouse in fully build Pribyslavitz is just 75 gr. Not a big deal considering the village will produce over 2300 gr. daily. The new horses aren’t a big deal either. Each is better than Warhorse Jenda in some way, but also worse in another. And the differences are so small I doubt you would notice them. Lastly, the exclusive horse tack consists of 6 pieces of horse head armor. It looks good, but the usefulness is questionable, as most people don’t really fight from horse. Guardhouse on the other hand, will get you the strongest bow in the game – Sinew bow. But mainly it unlocks arena master. He will provide you with infinite number of enemies to fight against in an arena. You can choose difficulty, weapons, and armor. And yes, the selection includes polearms. It it’s like your own, custom Rattay tourney anytime you want. If you like fighting, guardhouse is for you. The fun it provides is well worth the smaller income and extra horses/horse tack. I would only suggest you build stables if you plan on fighting from horse back. Agro is by far the best fighting horse in the game and the horse armor will come in handy. Rebuilding Pribyslavitz the smart wayYes, the price of fully rebuild Pribyslavitz is well over 95 000 gr. But you DON’T NEED to save up this much. In fact, you only need 23 580 gr. for initial investment, about 2500 gr. to cover the initial running costs and as a reserve and 3000 to buy stone for building. You should have 29 000 gr. ready as you go to start Lost in the Woods quest. That’s all the money you will ever need to invest out of your own pocket.The following part details how to rebuild Pribyslavitz. Order is important, as you need to maximize profits first. You should also aim to get the village profitable as soon as possible. For this reason, try to build everything up until you have tavern as quickly as possible. Initial buildings Start with building Bridge and Road. Then immediately after build Woodcutter’s camp and purchase the Beasts of Burden upgrade. Traders and resources This is where you start doing some “chores”. The next building you need is traders. This building will provide Pribyslavitz with resources. It is crucial to get them as cheap as possible.
While you are running around getting resources, ask Kunesh (in Rattay) and Raspberry (woodcutters camp between Ledetchko and Inn in the Glade, you likely asked him about Reeky’s hideout) to come work for you as woodcutters. Also ask Kornelius to be your trader. You can only ask him after the quest Aquarius has been completed and you cannot give Kornelius a job during this quest. Tavern You can now return to Pribyslavitz and build tavern, also buy all the upgrades. Now it’s time to get some skilled workers for your local drinking hole. First the innkeeper. The only option here is Adam (Rattay) who’s family owned tavern in Skalitz. In order to get him, you need to finish the Besmirched quest. During this quest you need to give Adam his family cross back. After that he will come work for you as innkeeper. Next the barmaid. Again only one option – Mirka. She lives in the mill south of Merhojed, you might remember her as a sister of Timmy. Unless you killed Timmy, she will come work for you. It’s fine if Morcock and his cronies killed Timmy, she only refuse to be barmaid if you killed him personally. You can also invite Mathew and Fritz to be local patrons. You need to finish the quest A Rock and a Hard Place and Mathew and Fritz cannot be arrested during the following quest, Gallows Brothers. Initially they will bring negative income of -15 gr. each. But, after a judgment they will start making positive income of +10 gr. each. The sooner you bring them, the sooner the judgment can happen for them to start making money, so don’t wait too long getting them. Once the judgment appears, you must choose “Give them one more chance” option. Bakery Your village is now making about 885 gr. daily. Wait 5 days and you should have enough money to build bakery and all its upgrades. Silvester, a skilled baker, can be hired during another judgment, so keep an eye out for it. Guardhouse/Stables and Beehives After building the bakery (and hiring Silvester) the village is now making 1345 gr. daily. Wait 6 days and you should have enough to build and fully upgrade guardhouse and beehives. If you want to build and fully upgrade stables instead, you might need to wait an extra day to gain enough money. After you build stables, go to Neuhof and hire Mark to be your groom. You will need to convince Zora to let him leave Neuhof. Successfully finishing The Sport of Kings quest will make the convincing easier, but it can be done without it. Forge The village is now making about 1775/1885 gr. daily and after another 6/5 days it should earn you enough to build a forge. Choose swordsmith or armoursmith based on your playstyle. As far as the skilled workers go:
You can build it as the money comes or wait until you make enough to upgrade everything all at once. It really doesn’t matter all that much, but if you want to rebuild Pribyslavitz as fast as possible without spending more than the initial investment of 29k gr. you should wait until you have all the money. It costs 50 300 gr. to build and fully upgrade both rathaus and church. Pribyslavitz should make this much in about 18 to 20 in game days. JudgmentsEvery once in a while, you will find an activity marker on your map located in the center of Pribyslavitz. That is a judgment – special type of activity introduced by From the Ashes DLC. You will need to decide various disputes between the citizens of Pribyslavitz.Some of these judgments are important and can earn you more money. Some have no impact at all. Judgments can also have impact on your reputation with Pribyslavitz, but I wouldn’t worry much about that. It’s easy to keep it high even if you make unpopular decisions. Certain decisions will always result in loosing or gaining citizen(s). As the number of citizens have no effect on the village, it’s not important criterium. Important judgments These judgments can earn you substantial daily income or they can lower your daily income by a lot. It’s very important to make a good, or at least not terrible, decisions. Old Crone
Attempted Murder
The Stream
There is one judgment which happens when you build butchers instead of bakery.
Village income breakdownTables below show the village income breakdown for Prybislavitz with bakery and guardhouse and Prybislavitz with bakery and stables.The breakdown is more detailed than the one you find in ledger. For this reason, some numbers are different, but the overall total is the same.
Daily income of 2390 gr. is actually the highest Prybislavitz can earn after fully rebuilding it. Theoretical max income is 2830 gr. This is after building and upgrading everything except for rathaus and church and deciding every judgment to maximize profit. |

Hello.
I am unable to add content to my Portfolio (work) pages. When I click on the + sign, nothing happens.
I have a pretty old website, created 2016. I haven't updated in a couple of years but wanted to add some video content. I can upload the file to media page, but not add it to the portfolio/work page.
The website is currently hosted by my previous employer (so not Wordpress itself). It is created with a Theme called Semplice that my friend sent me through Gmail. I see that below the Edit work on the page there is the following message:

I go back to look at the e-mail and there is a Licence file. However, Gmail is blocking me from downloading the zip as it marks it as virus. I don't know if the lack of key is blocking me from adding content.
I tried following a website help page that asked to look in the browser's developer tool for any potential problems. It gives the following error:

A1C at diagnosis was 14. After treatment including ozempic and ultra low carb diet my first A1C after 3 months came back as 6.0…was very happy
Once I felt I was getting a handle on things I started experimenting with re adding small amounts of higher carb foods..like occasional potatoes and pasta….very much eating to my meter ( libre 2)
My latest A1C came back at …….6.0
So even with adding some yummy foods back….i still have this !!!
Very happy

2024.05.16 14:50 leetnewb2 Duo or 4K / does the UI gracefully handle encrypted 3.0 channels?
I don't think we have any encrypted channels in the region today and I would go with the 4K for the ability to consume 1.0 and unencrypted 3.0 broadcasts. But I am stuck on what happens if/when stations encrypt. My limited understanding is that simultcast in 1.0 is required until mid-2027, but I'm wondering whether SD's UI handles broadcasts that go encrypted gracefully for non-technical users?
submitted by leetnewb2 to hdhomerun [link] [comments]
- Is it possible to unknowingly schedule a recording on an encrypted channel?
- Can the app/interface hide any ability to access broadcasts that are known to be indecipherable due to encryption?
- Does the UI recommend a 1.0 simulcast alternative when it reports that a broadcast is encrypted?
2024.05.16 14:48 workSamY A Personal Account of My Journey with the Game
For the Start: I have been playing SW for about 4.5-5 years, accumulating over 2.7k hours of playtime. Given the recent influx of new players and the interest I've noticed on Reddit, I've decided to share my experiences, knowledge, and thoughts about the game.
This is also meant to be a little vent for me because of the crap that has hit the fan multiple times since I started playing. Anyway, here it starts:
Hour 0-500
It was late 2019, and the virus started to become a thing. Like everyone else, I was bored and began looking for games to play. I happened to stumble across SpyCakes and his SW videos. The game looked cool and seemed to be something my (then limited) machine could easily run while being exactly what I wanted. So I got it.
And I was hooked. In less than a week, I had already played over 70 hours, and this trend continued, though not as strongly, over the next few months. Within half a year, I had invested over 500 hours.
Hour 500-1000
Due to personal reasons, I only played the game now and then for the next year, adding up to 600 hours (with a Steam loss of about 400 hours—keep this in mind). After that, I got addicted again and started playing the game regularly. I already had over 750 hours when the first "accident" happened. Windows crashed on me, and I had to reinstall it. I thought the vehicles were stored safely somewhere other than on Windows. Imagine my anger when I noticed they weren't.
I did something I slightly regret doing and am sorry for: I went to the bug report to "let out some steam" with sentences like "Can you please get the damn F**** vehicles that we build like any other stupid game in the Steam Cloud?" and "I've just lost F*** 1.1k play hours in vehicles because of this!" (Here comes the "lost" 400 hours).
So yeah, that was stupid. DON'T DO IT! As a result of this, I'm still invisible/muted to others on the bug reporter. I also want to add that I tried about six months later to get un-muted with no reaction.
"Hey to the mods of the bug report/feature request site, I noticed that I was banned a while ago (since #10306). I know what I said wasn't nice in any form, and I regret it since I wrote it."
By now, it was early 2023, and I had somewhat gotten over it.
I started playing the game again and found the fun in it once more, despite the worsening bugs that plagued the game over the next year.
1000-Now
Then the second "accident" happened: Windows 11. It looked like a regular Windows update (I don't read patch notes, lol). But it wasn't. It was Windows 11, and with that came another reset. Again, I lost my vehicles (which also happened around the same time as the bug-related problems). This was another blow. But this time, I just ignored it—"everything is just fine"—and didn't stop playing, now really learning.
I started investing real time into it. Got the DLCs when they came out and was mostly happy. Then the Space DLC came out, roughly two years after the April Fool's joke by (I think) SpyCakes—correct me if I'm wrong. And oh god, do I HATE IT. Every other large update or DLC before actually improved the game in one way or another. Yeah, the core gameplay is nearly untouched since it came out, but I'm not that type of player. But this update—oh god, did it break many vehicles (even my not-so-done ones). Jet engines? Useless! Bypass jets? Just as useless! Prop planes? Always the better one! Watertight areas? Nope! Oh, your plane was able to fly? Not anymore! Though many of these things have since been patched, the core issue is still there—the many bugs that they don't really fix. I've learned to go out of my way to build around them, but still, to this day, nearly every vehicle has some anomaly that I can't seem to fix. Even if I rip stuff from workshop vehicles, they stop working for me. Modular engines are another big thorn. And don't get me wrong, I love them! But with the ability to XML mod regular engines to make them have nearly infinite power at basically zero fuel flow, it's just something I sometimes love to use. The cooling seems to be broken for me, even for workshop vehicles (don't worry, I've reinstalled the game more than often enough).
A Hopeful Future (Which We can Only Dream of)
Despite the challenges and frustrations, I still find joy and creativity in the game. Each setback has taught me valuable lessons in patience, problem-solving, and resilience. Through these experiences, I even learned to code in Lua, which has opened up new possibilities and added depth to my gameplay.
I hope it was a joy to read, and I would love to hear about others' stories.
Additionally, I have many unfinished projects lying around and wanted to share them with you. If anyone is interested, they can be considered credit-free—so do with them what you want.

2024.05.16 14:48 Sunako-Kirishiki Electric effects & Warbond Idea
Electricity should do double damage to bots with strong staggestuns; for bugs, it should do normal damage and light stagger, but also have a chance (with increased chance the smaller the bug), to stunlock the bug it hits directly (with a lesser chance per subsequent arc). It would be funny to have a rare or so special animation for the bug stun that is a straightening/contraction of the bug's limbs giving it rigid limbs and allow it to fall over using the standard ragdoll physics.
If they are to make a electricity themed warbond it should stay more on theme than we have been getting in the past, I would imagine it would look something like what ai have proposed below.
Side note: due to limited thought placed into balancing the damage placeholder examples, they likely would need a serious change or two, as they are just loose estimates that seemed good at the time of typing.
Warbond name Ideas "Shock Troopers" "Tesla Terrors" "Super Charged"
Grenade ideas:
Electric "aoe" Grenade does the same effect as shooting the blitzer in 5 directions and arc thrower 3 times at detonation point, so it has high possible single target damage or multi target damage
An alternate could be funtionaly thermite grenade style, but a hi cap power cell that stabs into a target to latch on and acts as a temporary mini arc tower directly on the target but can still work if missed as a small range weak defense tower with short lifespan and limited hp if not invulnerable. It would provide arc thrower blasts every other second or so for as is good for balance.
Other Alternative could be just like the first, but with single target only damage where the grenade has a instant discharge that arcs to one target, the biggest unit in its set range; where it just strikes the flooenvironment if no units are in its radius. It wouls do heavy damage of course and a strong stagger to targets that arent instantly killed. (Instant kills a devestator and brood commander, maybe a stalker.)
Primary ideas:
SEAF SPIEDR (spider) Special Provisions Issued Electric Dischargeing Rifle. A marksman type rifle/energy weapon that is similar to the scorcher in regular use but with a delay before fireing each shot like the initial delay of the sickle, can tap to fire without needing to hold the fire button like sickle, it is semi auto or a slow (but not slower than achievable with semi) full auto and it hits one target per shot without any arcs at maybe 25% of the damage of the Blitzer while being fairly accurate and long range. Uses high capacity battery cells that look like 9 volt batteries for ammo at ~20 shots per cell (displayed with charge meter on rifle) has an alt fire setting that utilizes a pre chargeing pump mechanism located on the bottom like the blitzer, useing the same blitzer reload animation that eliminates the pre-fire delay of the next shot and consumes increments of 5 units of charge per pump for added damage. (can pump with sub 5 for the remaining 4,3,2, or units of charged damage potential). Precharged shots are indicated with a 0 to 4 circular light dot on each capacitor located on the rifle. Charged firing uses a proportional aesthetic in regards to arc thickness, brightness, and in its sounds on discharge/fireing. Charged fireing uses a diminishing return system where each 5 units of charge are worth 100%-75%-50%-25% damage efficency potential per unit of charged shot damage. This means each unit of charge at an example damage of 80 dmg (example base uncharged shot damage) then charged ahot values in pumps of 5 would give full damage per unit of charge at first pump giving a total of 400 dmg.then at 75% each for second pump it would total 700 (400 + 300), then 3 pump charge is 900 (400 + 300 + 200) while the last pump would only offer an extra 100 dmg capping at 1000 dmg total with these example numbers. And of course, I would be using the full mag in the process of firing one shot at 4 pumps. Also, when holding a charge, it adds an aesthetical electrical sparking along the barrels capacitors (4 small cylinders holding power on the gun itself outside of the battery before fireing / dischargeing). when keeping primed a charged shot the energy in it will slowly discharge at 1 shot's worth of damage per 10 seconds *after initial 10 seconds since last pump however the drainage stops at 1 remaining shots worth of capacity, leaving the user with a visable indication in the form of a minor sparking affect to display that its no longer brimming with power but in its weakened state is still primed to fire without any pre shot delay.
Reaper (R.E.A.P.R) Rapid Electrical Arc Pulse Rifle The second primary should be a moderate paced auto arc gun that after arc guns pre shot delay fires steady zap zip zap zip zap like pummeler or liberator concusive at around 8% to 15% of the stratagem grade arc gun damage; ahould have a large box style battery on the back of the rifle holding 100 shots, with 2 spares. Can use semi-auto to full auto and has 150% of the range of the flamethrower.
Ideas for Secondaries:
SEAF Standard Emergancy kit Handgun Simple starter handgun style but slower firerate, 60 dmg thin electrical textured blue laser peojectile (like a smaller sickle projectile but lightning) that uses a cool down function for ammo economy and when fireing has a safe mode that fires at max rate that it can without risking overheating, and an unsafe mode that can fire as fast as the starter handgun but can overheat using up a heatsink)
Project H.B aka Honey Bee A bug or bot movement arrestor A larger handgun that resembles a smaller barreled grenade pistol that uses a bee stinger esque barbed dart projectile with its medium armor penetrating barbed conical anchor pointed caseing that holds an impact activated module which starts an incremental electrical stun gun style energy discharge. In practice it handles just like the grenade pistol. However like the thermite grenade these projectiles will stick to the target. They will deal an initial damage 400 or so, then will begin to provide electical stuning effects and damage in pulses starting ~2 seconds after impact, it should apply a stun release stun release effect that will immobilize and deal an additional yet nominal electrica type damage from those stunning pulses. (For balance reasons, if the effect cant apply to any strong units such as hulks or tanks, it should at least cause a quick and light stagger per pulse on the hulks that reduce accuracy and for tanks should just reduce accuracy and or disallow fireing of the main gun *if it is the normal cannon tank)

2024.05.16 14:46 cloauddy Windtrace basically Flee the Facility 2.0
"Never mess with perfectionism" like sure you can change it up once in a while but this isn't prop hunt anymore this is fix the machine where the hunter sees you once it reaches ~60% and there's 6 of them around the map, 50/50 chance of being found hiding now, and just in general favors the old players who has did the previous windtrace (ESPECIALLY) if they're a hunter.
I appreciate them realizing that windtrace is getting kinda repetitive and adding some touches to it to make it more enjoyable but CMON the only way I can "win" the games currently is as a hunter

Vladimir Putin has landed in Beijing for a two-day state visit, where he was greeted by Chinese leader Xi Jinping with a red-carpet welcome and a full military band. The trip will build on their commitment to the "no limits" relationship they signed at the Winter Olympics in 2022, just before the full-scale invasion of Ukraine. As Russia becomes isolated from the West on the world stage, it has sought to boost trade in the East and elsewhere, helping prop up its economy in the face of sanctions.
Quote: "Relations between Russia and China are not opportunistic and not directed against anyone," Putin declared. "Our cooperation in international matters is one of the stabilizing factors in the international arena." Xi echoed the sentiment, adding that China will "work together to achieve the development and rejuvenation of our respective countries" and "to uphold equity and justice in the world."
Trade between the two nations has soared to record levels, rising 26% last year to $240B and hitting targets ahead of schedule. Russia has even overtaken Saudi Arabia as China's main oil supplier, while the latter sends back key commodities, vehicles and other consumer goods. Trade has also seen Russia's economy top expectations to expand by 3.6% in 2023, according to the IMF, despite Western efforts aimed at draining the Kremlin's war coffers.
Reaction? Wall Street Breakfast ran a survey last November, and again this week, on how the U.S. should manage its economic relationship with China. The biggest changes over the past six months showed that more subscribers have less faith in rapprochement and trade deals (24% to 15%), while a greater number believe decoupling and sanctions are the way to go (11% to 19%). It's noteworthy as Washington has recently threatened additional sanctions on Chinese banks and entities that handle Russian trade involving dual-use goods that can be used for both civilian and military purposes. How does all of this factor into your investing decisions? Join the discussion in the comments section.
Soft CPI Thought the Fed was only data dependent? Guess again. Data-centric traders celebrated in style after April's Consumer Price Index increased by 0.3% from March, easing from the +0.4% pace seen in the previous three months. The print, which meant inflation is still running well above the 3% level on an annualized basis, helped push Wall Street indices to new record highs, with the S&P 500 (SP500) crossing 5,300 for the first time ever. Meanwhile, retail sales came in flat, while regional business activity cooled further, suggesting the Fed could ease monetary policy earlier than expected. (119 comments)
Secret stake It's 13F season, where hedge funds with at least $100M in assets under management reveal their holdings. The flurry of filings sheds light on what they bought and sold during the quarter, but investment managers can also make special requests to regulators to keep some of their stakes confidential. Insurance-focused Berkshire Hathaway (BRK.B) just revealed one of those positions, disclosing a prior $6.7B stake in Chubb (CB), with market participants sending the stock up 8% AH on Wednesday as some looked to copy the successful picks of Warren Buffett. Other 13F highlights include filings from Bill Ackman's Pershing Square, Michael Burry's Scion and David Tepper's Appaloosa. (33 comments)
Battle of the skies AT&T (T) is teaming up with AST SpaceMobile (ASTS) to bring satellite internet connectivity to cell phones. The news sent ASTS up 36% in premarket trading this morning, with the space-based broadband network deal set to last until 2030. Other telecom operators have also ventured into the market. T-Mobile has a similar deal with SpaceX (SPACE), while Verizon (VZ) previously partnered with Amazon's (AMZN) Project Kuiper for connectivity solutions. Apple (AAPL) has also been offering satellite-to-cellphone emergency services on its iPhones since 2022. (43 comments)

Quote: "Relations between Russia and China are not opportunistic and not directed against anyone," Putin declared. "Our cooperation in international matters is one of the stabilizing factors in the international arena." Xi echoed the sentiment, adding that China will "work together to achieve the development and rejuvenation of our respective countries" and "to uphold equity and justice in the world."
Trade between the two nations has soared to record levels, rising 26% last year to $240B and hitting targets ahead of schedule. Russia has even overtaken Saudi Arabia as China's main oil supplier, while the latter sends back key commodities, vehicles and other consumer goods. Trade has also seen Russia's economy top expectations to expand by 3.6% in 2023, according to the IMF, despite Western efforts aimed at draining the Kremlin's war coffers.
Reaction? Wall Street Breakfast ran a survey last November, and again this week, on how the U.S. should manage its economic relationship with China. The biggest changes over the past six months showed that more subscribers have less faith in rapprochement and trade deals (24% to 15%), while a greater number believe decoupling and sanctions are the way to go (11% to 19%). It's noteworthy as Washington has recently threatened additional sanctions on Chinese banks and entities that handle Russian trade involving dual-use goods that can be used for both civilian and military purposes. How does all of this factor into your investing decisions? Join the discussion in the comments section.
Soft CPI Thought the Fed was only data dependent? Guess again. Data-centric traders celebrated in style after April's Consumer Price Index increased by 0.3% from March, easing from the +0.4% pace seen in the previous three months. The print, which meant inflation is still running well above the 3% level on an annualized basis, helped push Wall Street indices to new record highs, with the S&P 500 (SP500) crossing 5,300 for the first time ever. Meanwhile, retail sales came in flat, while regional business activity cooled further, suggesting the Fed could ease monetary policy earlier than expected. (119 comments)
Secret stake It's 13F season, where hedge funds with at least $100M in assets under management reveal their holdings. The flurry of filings sheds light on what they bought and sold during the quarter, but investment managers can also make special requests to regulators to keep some of their stakes confidential. Insurance-focused Berkshire Hathaway (BRK.B) just revealed one of those positions, disclosing a prior $6.7B stake in Chubb (CB), with market participants sending the stock up 8% AH on Wednesday as some looked to copy the successful picks of Warren Buffett. Other 13F highlights include filings from Bill Ackman's Pershing Square, Michael Burry's Scion and David Tepper's Appaloosa. (33 comments)
Battle of the skies AT&T (T) is teaming up with AST SpaceMobile (ASTS) to bring satellite internet connectivity to cell phones. The news sent ASTS up 36% in premarket trading this morning, with the space-based broadband network deal set to last until 2030. Other telecom operators have also ventured into the market. T-Mobile has a similar deal with SpaceX (SPACE), while Verizon (VZ) previously partnered with Amazon's (AMZN) Project Kuiper for connectivity solutions. Apple (AAPL) has also been offering satellite-to-cellphone emergency services on its iPhones since 2022. (43 comments)

2024.05.16 14:13 If-You-Cant-Hang Betta was attacked three weeks ago. Trying to nurse it back to health but he still seems off.
 | Hey all. I currently have my betta in a three gallon tank. He was attacked in another tank three weeks ago by a pleco. Thing just came up and started going after him, got a very frantic call from my girlfriend that it just attacked our betta and killed him. submitted by If-You-Cant-Hang to bettafish [link] [comments] Luckily that was not the case but he was in rough shape. Swimming super sideways and disoriented. Wasn’t sure he was going to pull through but he initially did and now I’m nervous there’s something more going on, whether it’s injury or infection. He’s currently in the three gallon tank like I said but has been really weird, hiding behind the heater wire and sleeping on his leaf hammock, but not much else like he used to do. I don’t have much anything in the tank other than a piece of wood, a few moss balls, and Indian almond leaves. For initial treatment I was just doing a 25% water change every 2-3 days and started adding stress guard. Noticed after a week he wasn’t really doing well so we decided to fast him for two days while also keeping up with the daily stress guard and water changes. He got a little better and seemed to be swimming mostly straight so everything seemed to be working. Then maybe 10 days ago he started doing poorly again so I used a little bit of aquarium salt after researching it. I was concerned he may have developed an infection from getting attacked. Turned the tank up to 84 and kept the aquarium salt in there for a week hoping that would help if he had an infection. Yesterday I did the first water change (no extra salt, I’m going to be removing it now) and I did a 1 gallon (33%) change. This morning when I went to feed him I noticed he was looking strange. Now I’m nervous I may have hurt him more. Is that just a little bit of dehydration from the salt? His stomach is sticking out like that in the pic. (The water is tinged like that because of the almond leaves). All other parameters in the tank are normal (used sticks to test). I ordered kanaplex to have on hand if nothing else helps in the next week or two. But right now I’m just maintaining 20-25% water changes every 2-3 days. I can’t find any good references with pics to try and diagnose this and I don’t know what to do. Any help or advice is appreciated. I really want my guy to be back to his normal happy self and not traumatized or sick. |

2024.05.16 13:44 JacobVampelt Pay to Win nei videogiochi - perché la gente ne ha una visione così obsoleta?
TLDR Per me qualsiasi vantaggio ottenibile attraverso soldi reali è considerabile pay to win e non capisco perché la gente si faccia andare bene di tutto e di più solo perché non c'è lo shop palese con l'arma luccicante a 9,99$, quando poi però ci sono i vari boost, valute diverse eccetera, eccetera. Qual è la vostra visione di p2w/il vostro livello di tolleranza?
Vi capita mai di trovarvi davanti uno di quegli argomenti su cui proprio non riuscite a non dire la vostra opinione in merito? Ecco, per me uno di quelli è il fattore P2W nei videogiochi, un qualcosa che prima era relegato a titoli f2p ed ora diventato molto più presente anche in giochi a pagamento. Molto spesso, tra italiani e non, vedo questa concezione di P2W che, a mio avviso, è obsoleta. Le persone, per un motivo o per un altro, sono pronte a difendere l'indifendibile solo perché: "ah, ma se non vengono vendute armi o equipaggiamento OP nello shop allora non è p2w" Oppure: "Nooo, ma questo non è pay to win, è pay for convenience/pay to progress/pay to XYZ" Quando lo so io e lo sapete voi che cambiando l'ordine degli addendi il risultato non cambia.
Magari anni fa lo shop nei videogiochi era strutturato in modo molto più palese, arrivando a venderti armi, armature etc ottenibili solo e soltanto tirando fuori il quattrino (quindi avevamo una forma di vantaggio diretto: soldi=armi) Oggi l'unica cosa che, per come la vedo io, è cambiata è il solo fatto che anziché avere un vantaggio diretto si ha un vantaggio indiretto (soldi=crediti=armi/lootbox/altro, ad esempio) Eppure moltissimi videogiocatori sembrano cascarci in pieno ed arrivano a giustificare forme di pay to win (più o meno aggressive) solo perché non gli viene spiattellato in faccia lo shop con l'arma luccicante a 9,99$ ma gli viene, ad esempio, messa la lootbox da 2,99$ l'una con la chance dello 0,01% di vincere X personaggio uscito da poco e quindi privo di alcun bilanciamento, Y skin migliore rispetto a quella base oppure Z pacchetto contenente cose che ti aiuteranno a progredire e quindi superare l'ostacolo messo dai devs stessi. Quest'ultima è sì ottenibile anche gratuitamente, ma a prezzi a dir poco ridicoli (tipo sessioni di gioco da 10/20 ore anche solo per una singola cassa in modo tale da scoraggiarli ed, ancora una volta, invogliarli ad aprire il portafoglio.)
Un video visto tempo fa e con cui mi trovo tutt'ora ancora molto d'accordo esprimeva il concetto che, ormai, tutti i giochi hanno una loro dose di elementi pay to win e sta a noi ed alla nostra tolleranza stabilire qual è il limite. E, l'abbiamo visto in moltissimi altri settori, gente che fatica persino ad arrivare a fine mese che, però, non si fa problemi a comprare di tutto e di più nei videogiochi totalmente accecate dalla FOMO o da chissà cos'altro.
Insomma, sono stanco di vedere persone difendere l'indifendibile o non rendersi conto di certe cose, volontariamente (magari perché in piena honey moon phase) o meno. E credo che sia proprio a causa di queste persone se un domani vedremo microtransazioni sempre più aggressive... dopotutto il mercato lo fa chi compra.
Giungendo, quindi, al fulcro del discorso, per me termini quali "pay to progress" e simili sono dei semplici specchietti per le allodole e sono dell'opinione che qualsiasi forma di vantaggio ottenuta attraverso soldi reali possa essere definita pay to win (ed ora già immagino i commenti tipo: "ehhh ma se sei scarso perdi comunque"/"ehhh ma pay to win è quando vinci, X vantaggio ti fa vincere? No! E allora non è p2w!!!", commenti visti e rivisti fino alla nausea) Sono l'unico a pensarla così? Qual è la vostra visione su questo argomento? E, soprattutto, se la pensate in modo diverso potreste argomentare? Discutiamone!

Ecco, per me uno di quelli è il fattore P2W nei videogiochi, un qualcosa che prima era relegato a titoli f2p ed ora diventato molto più presente anche in giochi a pagamento. Molto spesso, tra italiani e non, vedo questa concezione di P2W che, a mio avviso, è obsoleta. Le persone, per un motivo o per un altro, sono pronte a difendere l'indifendibile solo perché: "ah, ma se non vengono vendute armi o equipaggiamento OP nello shop allora non è p2w" Oppure: "Nooo, ma questo non è pay to win, è pay for convenience/pay to progress/pay to XYZ" Quando lo so io e lo sapete voi che cambiando l'ordine degli addendi il risultato non cambia.
Magari anni fa lo shop nei videogiochi era strutturato in modo molto più palese, arrivando a venderti armi, armature etc ottenibili solo e soltanto tirando fuori il quattrino (quindi avevamo una forma di vantaggio diretto: soldi=armi) Oggi l'unica cosa che, per come la vedo io, è cambiata è il solo fatto che anziché avere un vantaggio diretto si ha un vantaggio indiretto (soldi=crediti=armi/lootbox/altro, ad esempio) Eppure moltissimi videogiocatori sembrano cascarci in pieno ed arrivano a giustificare forme di pay to win (più o meno aggressive) solo perché non gli viene spiattellato in faccia lo shop con l'arma luccicante a 9,99$ ma gli viene, ad esempio, messa la lootbox da 2,99$ l'una con la chance dello 0,01% di vincere X personaggio uscito da poco e quindi privo di alcun bilanciamento, Y skin migliore rispetto a quella base oppure Z pacchetto contenente cose che ti aiuteranno a progredire e quindi superare l'ostacolo messo dai devs stessi. Quest'ultima è sì ottenibile anche gratuitamente, ma a prezzi a dir poco ridicoli (tipo sessioni di gioco da 10/20 ore anche solo per una singola cassa in modo tale da scoraggiarli ed, ancora una volta, invogliarli ad aprire il portafoglio.)
Un video visto tempo fa e con cui mi trovo tutt'ora ancora molto d'accordo esprimeva il concetto che, ormai, tutti i giochi hanno una loro dose di elementi pay to win e sta a noi ed alla nostra tolleranza stabilire qual è il limite. E, l'abbiamo visto in moltissimi altri settori, gente che fatica persino ad arrivare a fine mese che, però, non si fa problemi a comprare di tutto e di più nei videogiochi totalmente accecate dalla FOMO o da chissà cos'altro.
Insomma, sono stanco di vedere persone difendere l'indifendibile o non rendersi conto di certe cose, volontariamente (magari perché in piena honey moon phase) o meno. E credo che sia proprio a causa di queste persone se un domani vedremo microtransazioni sempre più aggressive... dopotutto il mercato lo fa chi compra.
Giungendo, quindi, al fulcro del discorso, per me termini quali "pay to progress" e simili sono dei semplici specchietti per le allodole e sono dell'opinione che qualsiasi forma di vantaggio ottenuta attraverso soldi reali possa essere definita pay to win (ed ora già immagino i commenti tipo: "ehhh ma se sei scarso perdi comunque"/"ehhh ma pay to win è quando vinci, X vantaggio ti fa vincere? No! E allora non è p2w!!!", commenti visti e rivisti fino alla nausea) Sono l'unico a pensarla così? Qual è la vostra visione su questo argomento? E, soprattutto, se la pensate in modo diverso potreste argomentare? Discutiamone!

In Rally games at least as I am not a real driver.
Having played all the games over the years and allowing for the limtiations of the technology of the various eras, Phil Mills in my opinion still has the best style and flow for pacenotes calls . In other games, including EA WRC, sometimes the notes are read too fast, or too late. Also Phil really puts the tension and even fear in his calls as you get more and more nuts.
In going back to DR 2.0 to test my Quest 3 (runs OMG awesome FYI) I realized how much intensity and immersion Phil added to my experience.
So thanks Phil. I will come visit now and again.

2024.05.16 13:34 Dreirak [SUGGESTION] Differents choppers (but not more)
Hello, first suggestion I make here, wanna improve this game because it has HUGE potential imo.
First suggestion is about the choppers, it will contribute to more availability but not by adding more choppers at the same time (since I agree about having 4 choppers, it makes us squad together more) :
Let's say we have as default or at start the LittleBird
LitteBird = 100% Speed, 100% noise (noise made by the chopper), 0% Cover
Let's add the possibility to have different choper, either when a squad is full and the leader can chose it, or just by choice from any player
Blackhawk = 90% speed, fly in straight (or almost) lines, 130% noise (so it's more visible, but not more noisy since you are inside), 50% cover (since you are inside, RP purpose for now since we are invulnerable anyway)-> perfect for long range drop at it will be faster to fly straight, but easier to spot
CH Huron (or something alike) = 75% speed, 150% noise (same, only more noisy from outside), fly in straight line, 100% cover (you are inside AND the chopper will shoot from turrets IF an ennemy shoot near it's direction -> perfect for "safe" but longer drops
And BONUS CHOPPER :
LittleBird storage (or another transport only chopper) : 100% speed (heck why not 110%), 2 available at same time, cannot transport troops but come at LZ to serve as remote access to the stash OR to drop items in(if remote access seems too OP) so those items are carried over to base without you needing to go back, in an temporary inventory, you have to empty once at base or it disappear (so people dont use extra storage), 50% noise and 0% cover

2024.05.16 13:29 Falagund24 Accidentally made a Stall Deck
 | And oddly enough it’s decent. submitted by Falagund24 to PTCGL [link] [comments] Couple weeks ago before the last season ended someone posted about H Zoroark and wishing there was a way to make it work. I was already Arceus so I put Vulpix down and got to work. The deck is horrible with dudunsparce, so that had to go. What did work was adding a ton of Spidops to essentially make opponents choose to let the KO happen or waste resources. A lot of matches just end up with opponent out of energy with no way to get it back, which wasn’t the intent. I only put Spidey in to make retreat harder. Well, that and to piss off zard. Nearing Arceus with this deck after dropping to the 1000s tweaking it. Pretty fun as well. Without claiming credit for the deck, I’ve seen a variant or two posted here after I started playing it, which is cool. Now my paranoid self is going to assume every switch an opponent uses against me is because they saw this list 😂 Mist energy ruins this deck. Gardy is almost an automatic loss unless you can get really lucky. Zard wins if they actually think to use Pidgeot as an attacker. Most Zard players can’t think though… Deck List Pokémon: 6 4 Hisuian Zoroark LOR 76 4 Hisuian Zorua LOR 75 3 Spidops ex SVI 19 4 Tarountula PAL 16 1 Manaphy BRS 41 1 Spidops ex SVI 243 Trainer: 19 2 Boss's Orders RCL 189 1 Lost Vacuum LOR 217 2 Judge PAF 228 1 Gardenia's Vigor ASR 143 1 Super Rod PAL 276 2 Nest Ball PAF 84 2 Eri TEF 199 1 Roxanne CRZ-GG 66 3 Jacq SVI 175 1 Prime Catcher TEF 157 2 Pokégear 3.0 SVI 186 2 Iono PAF 237 2 Artazon PAL 171 2 Technical Machine: Devolution PAR 177 1 Colress's Experiment LOR 155 1 Eri TEF 210 1 Roxanne ASR 150 4 Buddy-Buddy Poffin TEF 144 4 Switch SVI 194 Energy: 1 8 Basic {G} Energy Energy 1 Total Cards: 60 |
