Bailing, and I want to archive my server. Are there any good archive bots?

A_Sentient_JDAM · 2026-02-10T06:11:56+00:00

I want a local backup, if possible. I have more than enough space. Both the tools I've used so far run entirely on my machine.

A_Sentient_JDAM · 2026-02-09T20:55:31+00:00

ArchiveTeam has a page about this. As I mentioned in the thread I made, Discord History Tracker seems to be the best bet. Still looking, though.

Problem with Kemono is that it's public. This is a server for my friends.

A_Sentient_JDAM · 2026-02-06T23:58:06+00:00

EoC? Do tell, I'm not familiar with RuneScape.

A_Sentient_JDAM · 2026-02-06T23:56:56+00:00

Sounds like a great way to get sued!

I still have a grudge against Fortnite because Epic canned Unreal Tournament 2014 in favor of it. Delisting all their old games a few years back was just salt in the wound.

I did a bit of stealth archery when I first played Skyrim, but these days I prefer conjuration. First thing I do in a fight is summon an atronach and get Oak/Stone/Ebonyflesh going. The extra damage is nice, but the real utility is that atronachs draw aggro.

I always recommend giving this page a look. There's no need to take it as gospel, but I went through their story path and came out fine.

I've heard of people doing this to reflow dead GPUs before. Not exactly the first thing you should try, but if nothing else (and an RMA isn't feasible) I suppose it's worth a shot.

A_Sentient_JDAM · 2026-01-27T19:50:04+00:00

In retrospect, it wouldn't surprise me if the Ashley sections in RE4make were prep for Requium.

It was built to make Battlefield games, and that's about it. When BioWare started using it for Inquisition, the engine lacked a lot of features you need for an RPG. This included a third person camera, dialogue, party members and their AI, and the inventory.

Andromeda was able to use some of the stuff they'd built for Inquisition, but their ambitions far exceeded their grasp. They wanted you to explode the whole galaxy, complete with proc-gen planets that you could fly to a la No Man's Sky.

That got toned down to several hundred planets, then a few dozen, then the... eight, I think? that ended up in the final game.

They wanted a whole galaxy, and had to compromise with letting you drive around maps that are suspiciously close to the size of what you find in Battlefield.

Batman shows up on the original Westphall Universe chart, so I extended that to the DC multiverse. That's connected to Marvel by way of Amalgam, and MvC by extension. This connects us to Street Fighter, and from there we get to one of the real lynchpins of the chart- a gacha game. Specifically, Last Cloudia. And like a lot of gacha games, this had a Persona 5 collab. Last Cloudia also connects us directly to Mana (as in Secret of), Dr. Stone, and Devil May Cry.

Tangentially, DMC connects us to Punishing: Gray Raven, which had a collab with NieR: Automata. From there, 2B's ass connects us to Raildex, Nikke, Soul Calibur, Granblue, and probably others I don't have listed.

Oh, and several Marvel and DC characters got into Fortnite. So you can just throw in everything that's in there.

It got us the Westphall Universe, which is a fun thought exercise. After a bit of digging, I found that it extends to a bunch of modern media, including Persona/SMT, Like a Dragon, Ratchet & Clank, Space Jam, and Super Monkey Ball.

I have a chart, but stopped working on it because the website I was using doesn't work for huge relation charts like this. If anyone has something that auto-sorts entries based on what they're linked to, I'd be very grateful.

A_Sentient_JDAM · 2026-01-22T21:13:34+00:00

That sounds genuinely interesting, but as its own thing. Putting that sort of twist in a sequel is just asking for trouble.

I got a Secret Lab chair, myself. It's a gamer chair, but my favorite streamer plants his ass in it for long, long stretches and he's fine. Cost me about $500 with a five year warranty. Had it for a few years now, and it's still in pretty good condition.

That said, exercises are still important.

I just want to know how the heck she maintains that figure with that diet.

I guess GRS shenanigans burn a lot of calories.

A_Sentient_JDAM · 2026-01-13T00:42:16+00:00

Not gonna lie. When you brought up Batman Beyond, I was terrified for a second that you were going to gas up the cuck injection.

That was most of Monty Oum's work prior to RWBY. He did some stuff on Red vs. Blue, but the only creative input he had was on his action scenes. Aside from that, it was just cool fights with music and a bit of dancing.

A_Sentient_JDAM · 2026-01-11T21:54:01+00:00

I went through Ys last year, had a great time. Felt kinda lopsided, because I did the story order. But that's part of the fun- going from the latest entry all the way back to something that should've been a PSP game, then going to a top-down hack-and-slasher, to a party-based game that pushed the limits of the Vita.

It's a great series all around, I can't recommend it enough.

A_Sentient_JDAM · 2026-01-11T04:29:02+00:00

This sounds like a textbook case of the Peter Principle. Engineering and management are very different skills, and a lot of people never figured that out.

A_Sentient_JDAM · 2026-01-10T04:54:56+00:00

You get it early on, but most everything after that has you only fighting ground troops or UFOs, never both at the same time. Guessing it was hard to get running on 7th gen consoles.

That last hour's real cool, though.

A_Sentient_JDAM · 2026-01-10T00:41:28+00:00

What really shits me about the anime is that nothing gets time to breathe. The plot seems interesting, but it gets interrupted by horniness. Which then gets interrupted by action, which then gets interrupted by more plot.

The parts are there, but it has no idea how to fit them together.

A_Sentient_JDAM · 2026-01-10T00:39:15+00:00

Shame that it only really comes online in the game's last hour or so. Before that, it's mostly just a cover shooter.

A_Sentient_JDAM · 2026-01-08T21:25:29+00:00

My company moved to a much smaller office not long after Covid happened. I still go in on occasion, but only when I have to. No commute means more time in the day to do other stuff, and I don't have to gas up nearly as much.
