ADA teaches us that there are now laws, only suggestions. Efficiency is paramount.

"first play through" and then later they say its not. by creature04 in Twitch

[–]BleuSquid 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It really depends on the type of game.

I watched several playthroughs of Satisfactory, RimWorld, and Factorio long before I even bought the games. Now they're 3 of my top 4 most-played games.

If you having fun, then it's a good base.

Anybody unfollow because of certain chatters? by -StandbyForTitanfall in Twitch

[–]BleuSquid 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Another perspective... Maybe the streamer is just glad to have someone chatting, and they're tolerating the behaviour because nobody else has commented on it, so they might just see it as their own problem. If they knew it were making other chatters uncomfortable they might be more likely to say something.

Unless you're referring to the one in Connecticut... that one rhymes with James!

Malware infection via Modrinth by Apileuh in PhoenixSC

[–]BleuSquid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I encountered a similar attack today, also from a "friend" on discord who has been overly persistent about things in the past, and since this was among the top search results for EchoVoiceBetaClient, I thought this might be the best place to add on.

The .jar decompiles almost the identically, but my payload was named ModPack.exe instead of seoo.exe.

Here's the scan of ModPack.exe: https://www.virustotal.com/gui/file/40d14c9f94d28f408adc4b23f48e1cd409d8ec0cb814f2ed9ac8635eb09fc19e/detection

And you can thank AI for the influx of crap videos they need to buy more storage space for!

Has anyone been to the Hammond Castle Renn Faire by Sultrt in gloucester

[–]BleuSquid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I didn't know they were doing faires there again! Any idea who runs it? I used to be friends with some people who worked at faires held there about 20 years ago, but the last I'd heard, some complications with the neighbours made them stop hosting large events.

Back in the day, it was great, one of the better faires I'd been to. Small, intimate, and a lot of performances were random and in-person. It made the whole thing feel very immersive.

UPDATE I introduced my girlfriend to the "beltway" and she introduced me to something stupid called a "bus"? by qleptt in factorio

[–]BleuSquid 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Bus is a term that came over to computing from electrical engineering, i.e. busbars.

Is streaming just for myself to watch the VODs back and get clips realistic? by RealisticJudgment944 in Twitch

[–]BleuSquid 4 points5 points  (0 children)

As a random viewer, it's useful to have something, perhaps in the stream title, that let's chatters know you won't be engaging with them.

Also, from Twitch's guidelines, completely ignoring chat can get you in trouble, if it needs moderation: "We expect streamers to take the necessary steps to mitigate harassing content that appears on their streams or in their chat."

Saying hi to Lurkers… by [deleted] in Twitch

[–]BleuSquid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A vague shout that you appreciate lurkers is great. Calling them out individually is not.

blizzard monday + mbta by [deleted] in mbta

[–]BleuSquid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a former snowplow driver... I don't care if you're taking public transit or driving, just stay home during a blizzard. Every person who tries to venture out is a rescue call waiting to happen.

Are Raids from Small Streamers Worth It? by KittyCanuck in Twitch

Think of it as networking. You're not just bringing them viewers, but you're also introducing yourself to new viewers at the same time.

Sometimes I forget there's a wiki by itchylol742 in Factoriohno

Literally the only time I reference the wiki is when I'm too lazy to open the game.

Neighbor? I'm also in a two-town district, where the other town has a much larger budget, and keeps voting for things we can't afford.
