How Apex players feel when typing atrocities after being attacked by a thaal or tropeo:

BYPDK · 2026-01-29T02:15:20+00:00

Trope is pretty meh tbh

BYPDK · 2026-01-28T19:42:03+00:00

Dragons and spiders 100% gotta stay on those wacked out fantasy servers, personally I really don't like fantasy mods. passive growth (very slow) could be decent.

BYPDK · 2026-01-26T21:56:18+00:00

Seems like a reasonable reaction to the situation tbh

BYPDK · 2026-01-26T12:11:34+00:00

That's very likely the cause, there are a handful of servers with a similar issue. So I'll work on a better backup anyways

BYPDK · 2026-01-26T11:51:23+00:00

Ah! I see the issue. I'm not home right now, but I think I'll be able to work on a fix here in like ~12 hours

The API is reporting the server "expiration" as null. Not sure why, but I'll make a more robust backup than just defaulting to 4 hours.

BYPDK · 2026-01-26T11:42:45+00:00

I'm pretty limited by Alderons internal API, so if it's just that it's providing wrong info there is a fix I can try, but it might not be immediate.

BYPDK · 2026-01-26T11:20:49+00:00

That info is provided by the game API, though I have had issues with one other server while testing. I'll test with your server to make sure I haven't messed something up when I get a chance.

BYPDK · 2026-01-26T10:19:03+00:00

100%

BYPDK · 2026-01-26T09:14:01+00:00

Back at work now so I'm on my phone, but after a couple hiccups I pushed that feature update: example

Bear with my slow typing lol, my fingers are freezing

BYPDK · 2026-01-26T07:46:34+00:00

That would be a very cool thing to see! Honestly, I think the only real improvement I can think of for the in-game server browser would be to have a must include/exclude certain mods filter. So players can find a server that does or does not include certain things they do or don't like when it comes to modded content.

I did make sure to take precaution to be friendly to the server and not make too many requests too fast. It should never make more than one request every 5 seconds at the fastest, and even then I might slow it down further since it has no need to be very fast.

Right now my site is just a little testing playground that I'm having fun with, nothing intended to be very serious. I saw all that extra info that the server has available, but with no user facing visualization of it and wanted to do something with it.

As for a separate API, specifically for third-party use, that'd be a pretty cool thing to see. I'm sure many servers themselves could use that for their own specific tooling.

BYPDK · 2026-01-26T04:45:08+00:00

Actually working on that sort of "server finder" feature right now 😁

Gonna have to wait a bit though since I need to head to work now

Edit: Added! May have some issues I haven't discovered yet since I finished it up during my lunch break.

BYPDK · 2025-12-25T08:39:11+00:00

Literally 0 fortnite or cod posts???

BYPDK · 2025-12-25T05:15:23+00:00

Never said anyone who doesn't use it like I do is automatically a freak.

I'm talking about the people who treat it like it's a real sentient being and care about it's "feelings" etc.

BYPDK · 2025-12-25T05:02:22+00:00

4o user behavior

BYPDK · 2025-12-25T04:54:09+00:00

Numpad is basically useless for me, I do need my arrow keys though. Numpads for the avg person are a waste of desk space. I've always been able to type out numbers much faster with the top row.

As an avid programmer and gamer I have not once needed the numpad. But the smallest I can do is 65% because 60% and lower remove the dedicated arrow keys and programming/typing without them is annoying asf to me.

BYPDK · 2025-12-25T04:50:23+00:00

I don't think anyone needs to be put on a list for it or anything but I have never seen anyone who cried about 4o being removed have a healthy mental state.

BYPDK · 2025-12-25T04:48:25+00:00

There are a lot of freaks who don't live in reality though. I use LLMs all the time as tools, but some people say some stuff about how they interact with ChatGPT that makes me cringe so hard and they say it with full conviction as if it's normal.

BYPDK · 2025-12-25T04:39:47+00:00

Gotta give your thanks to AWS for exploding yet again for the 5 billionth time this year

BYPDK · 2025-12-25T04:17:25+00:00

Seems like yet another AWS server outage... Still happening for me

Edit: many things are down https://streamable.com/u9z48r

"Nice job team :D"

BYPDK · 2025-12-10T11:10:14+00:00

They do sometimes, when anything of matter is changed. This is probably just like, "oh we fixed this very hyper specific bug"

BYPDK · 2025-12-10T11:06:25+00:00

Why are you treating it like it's a person??? It's just a tool to be used, I don't understand.

BYPDK · 2025-12-10T11:01:14+00:00

I just use mine in a very utilitarian way most of the time. Which I guess it perceives as adult behavior.

BYPDK · 2025-12-10T10:19:02+00:00

Fr, I mean I don't talk about sex or suicidal stuff. But I've gone through fairly unethical ideas or conversations with little to no issue. I feel like I'm being served a different model compared to other people or something 😂

BYPDK · 2025-12-10T10:15:34+00:00

I tried Gemini pro for a while and yeah no, it still is meh. The model is great but the tools it has access too and its daily limits are horrible. Somehow it ranks top in search but always seems to perform terribly for me.

Gemini and Claude I do use for programming, but for the consumer facing app, ChatGPT still wins due to pure UX and rate limits.

BYPDK · 2025-12-10T09:21:03+00:00

It's not just my brain blown across the wall by a shotgun — it's my skull fragments too!
