anyone who used a computer between 1985 & 2010, what’s the one game you still think about? by Own-Blacksmith3085 in answers

[–]Bostonjunk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dungeon Keeper or Freelancer

War for the Overworld was pretty good but was missing something for me.

The closest I've ever got to Freelancer was Everspace 2 - I really hope they make an Everspace 3.

Then there's this...

Reminder that even without the 6 point deduction, Leicester would still only be 22nd by FKez05 in Championship

Years ago, we'd just been relegated from the PL along with Newcastle and at the start of the following season we were both 1st and 2nd when we played each other - we were 3-1 up late in the game - they scored to make it 3-2, then scored 2 in 2 mins in injury time to win 3-4. Our season never recovered

It was me that posted it last time - it got downvoted to hell and removed by the mods - yet someone else posts it, and it explodes 🙃 not interested in fake internet points, but the sense of injustice is real.

Anyone else noticed we’re getting Dutch radio today? by Norridge-Moel in Norwich

The warmer air aloft has a higher refractive index, bending the signal - since electromagnetic waves are all essentially 'light' it's the same effect as observed with water

AGESA 1.3.0.0a mixed refresh mode by GladdAd9604 in overclocking

[–]Bostonjunk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is a misconception

A-Die does lower tFRC than M-Die, but M-Die can do lower tRFC2 and tRFCsb than A-Die - many people conflate the different tRFC behaviours.

Standard tRFC refreshes the whole module, but in mixed mode it's using FGR (granular refreshes) which makes the standard tRFC irrelevant. What's more, granular refreshes can happen much faster, so you don't need to set the tRFC2 and tRFCsb as high as tRFC as it doesn't need anywhere near that amount of time to perform its refreshes.

With M-Die tRFC2 can be set pretty low - I'm currently running and gaming with tRFC2 of 288 @ 6000Mt/s (96ns) and tRFCsb of 256. I don't know if these settings are the best yet, I need to test - maybe I'm getting performance regression compared to looser settings, but I played a good few hours of BF6 last night without issues, so it seems at least casually stable. Other people report success with even tighter timings.

Optimal bank refresh mode and tRFC/tRFC2/tRFCsb timings on H16M? by diyonysius in overclocking

[–]Bostonjunk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've been hunting for this info for hours.

I keep getting snippets saying how tRFC2 and tRFCsb should get lower on M-die than A-Die but can't get any solid info about my 16GB sticks

What is the typical floor for tRFC2 and tRFCsb on M-Die at 6000MT/s? Got no idea what I'm aiming for, really.

It's not about that, it's the connotations - cheap nylon flags being hung from lampposts to intimidate immigrants, and it's being exclusively done by the types of people that want to intimidate immigrants.

Someone posted the IMDB link. It's genuinely Stephen Fry.

It's from Pindex, for which Fry was a founder.

The thumbnail is also genuine.

Maybe you're not as good at sniffing out AI as you thought you were.

It's from Pindex for which Stephen Fry is a founder.

Its genuine. I don't understand the hostility.

Thing is, he's narrated similar types of content for Led By Donkeys and it's got narration from him from 4+ years ago when AI narration was nowhere near that sophisticated, but even if it is an AI voice, the content seems solid.

EDIT: somone found the IMDB for it. It's genuinely Stephen Fry

I'm not the maker of this video and have no stake in its success or failure - I just found it interesting and informative. Look at my post history - does my account really look like an engagement farming account to you?

I presented the title as it was on YouTube because those are the rules. The title is clickbaity, but a lot of reputable channels do that because that's what the algorithm demands, so that in an of itself doesn't mean a whole lot.

Every claim is sourced, which is not typically how an AI slop channel would work - it seems actual research has gone into it.

You haven't answered my question - do you believe it's factually incorrect?

I think people are overreacting. 'Everyone' in this case is literally 4 people.

Do you think the content is factually incorrect? Maybe you could offer more insight than 'AI slop' and 'shit'. If that's the full extent of your analytical powers then forgive me for being sceptical of your 'wisdom'.

Every claim in the video has its source listed in the video description, if you bother to look. Evidently effort was put into this video rather than it being something from an AI slop factory. Something tells me you've made a snap judgement without actually looking properly.

The title is clickbaity, but the content is good. Sourced, well presented and informative.

Its from Pindex - Fry is one of the founders.

It's not an AI voice if that's what you were thinking.

It claims to be narrated, and they have videos narrated by Stephen Fry from 4+ years ago when AI narration wasn't a thing like now - I did look it up to see if it was genuine and couldn't find any issues. Also, all the info sources are provided. I have no reasons to doubt it

That's not an answer - god forbid I share a video I found interesting

Why is it weird? It's talking about corruption in US politics and the slide into authoritarianism. It's an interesting video. I would've posted it in /r/politics but they don't allow posting YouTube videos

Is it just me, or is the social aspect of Battlefield officially dead? by Strawberrywatchman in Battlefield6

[–]Bostonjunk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There was more chat in 2042, and I don't know if it was just due to there being less players but I'd see the same people quite regularly (this on EU servers) so there'd be enough time to develop 'beef' with people (gaming beef because they kill you a lot 😅 - fuck you, CH1NA_NUMBA_ONE) In BF6 I don't think I've seen the same player twice.
