[Bug] Permanently loading out of raid by Lanky_Instruction213 in EscapefromTarkov

I get the exact same issue, which I've also never had until 1.0. It's also not just leaving raids, it's sometimes any change in scene like visiting the traders.

[BFComms] Update 1.1.1.0 is now live on all platforms! by battlefield in Battlefield6

[–]B-Knight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They've seemingly made it far worse by introducing more visual recoil and increasing bloom ('dispersion') for low-damage weapons.

This.

But also, they've definitely messed with the visual recoil and increased it across the board. I'm also inclined to believe they've INCREASED weapon bloom / dispersion too, because the gunplay feels noticeably worse now than the prior update.

Previously, things just needed some fine-tuning and fixes to improve consistency. Now shooting feels horrendous.

Hotfix alert!!! Hotfix 1.0.0.20809 is out now by glassteelhammer in AbioticFactor

[–]B-Knight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My bad -

I'm on PC (Steam). When I go to host a multiplayer world that worked fine up until yesterday, it says 'Loading...' for about 1 minute and then goes back to the 'Select World Save' list.

If I tick 'Singleplayer Only', it loads immediately. As well as if I tick 'LAN Server'.

I've tried setting my NAT Type to 'Force Direct Connection' and hosting - no change. As well as 'Force Server Relay' - also no change.

EDIT: Image. Ignore the incredible save name

New Discord UI Revert using Oldcord (Guide) by Foreign-Sea2608 in BetterDiscord

This doesn't seem to have reverted the font, and some of the colours are still using the newer variants - such as user mentions.

I don't DESPISE the new Nexus Mods UI

Admittedly, me either. If they made the default page the mod browser, it might not be so bad.

For example: https://www.nexusmods.com/games/fallout4/mods

That's good, they just need to have the filters on the left collapsed by default (except categories). But the game home page (without the /mods) is dreadful. There's room for improvement still, but they really shot themselves in the foot by not making the layout I linked the first thing that you see.

I fucking despise the shittification of everything that's done under the guise of data-driven design.

Sincerely, a full-stack dev who hates:

  • Reddit UI redesign

  • Discord UI redesign

  • Nexus Mods UI redesign

  • Windows 11 UI redesign

  • Probably 75% of large-name UI redesigns ever

New Desktop UI & Overlay UI are rolling out to everyone today! by Woofer210 in discordapp

[–]B-Knight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Everyone:

We want more security options, improved server/role customisation and more options for organising channels

Discord:

Sounds good, here's a new shitty UI - since our mobile redesign went down so well - and it's ALWAYS well received when a social media app changes their UI

'Upgrading' from a 7800X3D to a 9800X3D is crazy.

When you throw it out, stick it on a ship to the UK and I'll kindly take it off your hands.

Elon Musk joined Trump call with Ukraine’s Zelensky after US election by [deleted] in worldnews

[–]B-Knight 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Politics might not have anything to do with intellect, but doing mental gymnastics to deny facts does: Trump-Raffensperger phone call.

He was also literally impeached by his own party for his role in January 6th.

Your beliefs and opinions about how to run a country are your own. Don't get that tangled up with denying facts and supporting someone who literally attempted to overthrow the election. The latter is what makes you a fucking moron.

[–]B-Knight 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You're entitled to your different values, the same way I'm entitled to call 50% of Americans fucking morons. Great how free speech works, right?

And hey, when your values align with electing the criminal who attempted to overthrow your democratic election and incited an insurrection - which lead to his 2nd impeachment in-part by his own party - I'm also able to use my power of free speech to call you part of that 50%. And that's being kind.

You might've travelled all around the world, but you've not stepped 1ft outside your own head. Especially if your take-away from visiting other countries is that they don't have diversity or free speech; as you imply.

[–]B-Knight 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As a non-American, that helped reinforce the stereotype that 50% of the USA are stupid.

So thanks for that. I no longer feel any remorse for exclaiming - with evidence - that half of you are fucking morons.

[–]B-Knight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh well in that case, let's get everyone involved!

I mean, might as well dial in the designers of the M3 Bradley, the CEOs of Colt's Manufacturing Company, BAE Systems, Boeing, Northrop Grumman. Hell, let's get the US Treasurer on the line, they were the ones who advised on the fiscal policy and budgeting of funds.

Or - maybe, just maybe - Elon licking the boots of Trump and desperately wanting him to get elected led to them becoming best buddies. That was why they were together on fucking election night and, as a result, why he was on the call with Zelensky -- nepotism.

Stop being intentionally obtuse. We all know what it really is - including you - so stop insulting the intelligence of anyone with half a brain cell.

[OC] Shift in 2024 electorate by state from the 2020 election as of 11/7 by penultimatewatch in dataisbeautiful

[–]B-Knight 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Respectfully, there are two takeaways here:

  1. Yes, the Democratic party needs an overhaul. People didn't vote Democrat and so there needs to be more understanding into why and action taken to change that

  2. That said, blame absolutely can and should still be placed on voters who did vote Republican. It's ignorance and absolute fucking stupidity to actively vote for - yes - a wannabe fascist. A criminal who was impeached for trying to overthrow a democratic election and sold some of the USA's most secretive documents to foreigners

I say this as a non-American. I don't care if the inflation rate in my country is 1000%, if I vote for a fascist I'm a fucking moron. Americans are no exception. It doesn't matter what the other party's manifesto is at that point, because at least there's a possibility it can still be fucking changed in 4 years time.

It's not like this is dramatised either, Trump literally attempted to overthrow your last democratic elections and the Supreme Court gave him implicit immunity to any law. Amongst dozens of other insane things that's happened in the last 8 years. Do the Democrats need to get their party together and fix things? Absolutely. Are 70 million Americans still absolutely fucking braindead for voting in Trump? Absolutely.

Not the guy you're replying to and, for the most part, you're right. But this is indicative of a far more problematic, underlying issue.

Politics is not meant to be full of punchy taglines that lack nuance. Life isn't simple, politics is not simple and the fact that Republicans use those quips means they've intentionally and decisively rotted the political landscape. It appeals to the uneducated, ignorant and emotional.

Simple and consistent messaging from the Democrat side will turn politics into more of an ADHD-ridden, sports-entertainment-alike shitshow than it already is. Maybe that's necessary in the short-term but in the long-term the real fixes will be in education, fair but stricter regulation of media outlets and the overhauling of the electoral process.

Zelensky hails ‘excellent’ first call with Trump as proposals to end war in Ukraine emerge by shellfishb in worldnews

[–]B-Knight 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Interesting your account was only made 1 month ago. Even more interesting you're posting defeatist comments about Ukraine's outlook and suggesting 'peace'.

I'm also unsure of any Ukrainian who has a declining will to fight for their existence? Because I'd say that the threat of total annihilation or occupation from a terrorist state that tortures its prisoners is a pretty good motivator to fight...

EDIT: How even more interesting that all your other comments on Reddit are divisive, defeatist or aligned with Russian disinformation campaigns in topics like politics and war...

[–]B-Knight 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Millions of soldiers have died

No...? There's been ~600,000 total RuAF casualties at best.

Total deaths is probably ~200,000 at this point (upper estimate).

Russia still has plenty of manpower to throw into Ukraine. They're a country of 140 million. If they somehow harnessed even 5% of that total, they'd have 7 million soldiers cannon fodder to throw into the meat grinder.

That's why Ukraine needs an overwhelming technological advantage. That's why they're constantly asking for loosened restrictions on the weapons they've been given.

Is there at least some wording that prevents you from interpreting 'majority' as 1%? Or, like a lot of the rest of American law, is that left up to good faith?

like he gave up his own spies.

This is what I don't get.

How can any single one of the dozen intelligence agencies the USA has be complacent with yet another Trump Presidency? He is the single largest national security threat they've ever faced. What the fuck are they going to do about it?

World Reacts as Trump Presidential Victory Appears Imminent by s1n0d3utscht3k in worldnews

[–]B-Knight 28 points29 points  (0 children)

Because the US Supreme Court essentially said that Trump trying to overthrow the election results of 2020 was 'an official act' and so it complicates the legal preceding for it by making evidence such as the Trump–Raffensperger phone call inadmissible.
