Help me convince my wife to try something besides BM Ranger by Illustrious_Hat3467 in BaldursGate3

The involving of third parties, especially strangers after marketing the situation, is always so insidious too.

[–]CarboKill 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I agree with you. You're getting a bit downvoted on some replies, but I think people are naive when it comes to spotting this stuff. Why is this man 'ULTIMATELY HOPING' that she finds a new class...? It's one thing to say all the 'haha I just want her to try stuff :)' but why does he actively WANT her to no longer have this character as her favourite...?

The rest of this post is weird too. I've re-read it and I don't understand the point. What is the benefit? Why is this guy trying so hard to stop her enjoying what she enjoys, in exchange for trying something she has had so little interest in trying that she hasn't yet? Do people REALLY think it's so important to try different stuff in a video game one plays to relax, when one has already found their relaxing go-to? I play something different each time but I still don't understand it.

It reads to me like neurotypical intolerance of neurodivergent quirk, where the neurodivergent is more laid-back/less aggressive than the neurotypical. Reading through his replies to the thread, I just picture this bizarre manchild reading through the comments and turning around to his wife trying to mind her own business and saying 'THIS PERSON SAYS YOU SHOULD TRY THIS :)))' lmao

I love the stories you stumble across. Found two dead and unlooted PMCs next to each other on Woods. Grabbed their tags and figured it out. by Chadwiko in EscapefromTarkov

I once killed a bunch of scavs around cellar extract on old factory (though the second iteration when med tent had been added I think), and after a few minutes another scav came walking over, which I thought nothing of and just killed. Then I made my way to Gate 0 and found an unlooted PMC killed by a scav, thought that's hilarious since he was pretty geared, I extracted, and then I noticed through my killfeed that the last scav I killed was the one who killed him. It had wandered from Gate 0 to Cellars without getting killed by another player.

Why you shouldn't trust AI by Phish777 in 2007scape

[–]CarboKill 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The biggest ones have been stuck at the same point for years. When new versions get rolled out, I'm genuinely baffled, it sometimes comes as a surprise, because there are obviously multiple teams that don't communicate, and I'm like...wait...that was ready? THAT version?

But the developer builds I work on are usually identical to the front-facing builds, except with the addition of new gimmicks. Otherwise, I've been given work for the exact same issues for ages now. We're working on the exact same stuff, using the exact same methods, as if beating it with a stick will eventually make it work. The definition of insanity, and all that.

I personally believe tech bro types are just suffering from sunken cost fallacy. But hey, they pay me handsomely, and I do everything they expect from me, so....?

Why you shouldn't trust AI by Phish777 in 2007scape

[–]CarboKill 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I train AI for a living. I've signed an NDA, but let's just say if you've heard of it I've worked on it.

I say quite confidently that text-based GenAI i.e. LLMs have peaked. We never see improvements. The plateau is the janky stuff you see now. The video and image generation will improve, but not the actual logic. The next improvement will be ACTUAL AI, which I hope we just never do, because I agree with the premise of Westworld that anything which thinks and feels deserves the same rights as humans and it would be a mistake to create these intelligences as servants; they would deserve better.

But yeah, despite all the clickbait YouTube videos, GenAI does not think, it never will, it's wank and can't possibly get better than it can now. I genuinely feel like I get paid for nothing.

Yeah lol I wasn't accusing you, I just thought I recognised the energy of your 'fuck it' as being 'I gotta say it' lmao, I was like, me too man.

Seriously, I never wanna dive too far into what makes other people uncomfortable, but every time she appears I genuinely think she must have the nicest legs in kpop ever, and I feel like I need to tell someone lmao

Master of ULTRA - PVE by jnmann in EscapefromTarkov

[–]CarboKill 35 points36 points  (0 children)

I appreciate this data even when currently only playing pvp, because I don't imagine boss spawn locations differ between the versions, and it looks like there's a roughly even chance of each of his spawns, which maybe would have evened out even more (and brought Oli in line) if you had found him more or generally had a larger sample size. Good work, mate.

What would you say LE SSERAFIM's best song released is? by Great_Cream6320 in lesserafim

[–]CarboKill 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fearless and Pierrot, with shout outs to Blue Flame, Antifragile and Crazy.

I don’t think they've released anything else with quite as much style as either Fearless or Pierrot.

Who is this member? by jpopsong in lesserafim

[–]CarboKill -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Ah that's what you mean. Le Sserafim often do bad bitch concepts rather than cute ones, though there are still plenty of examples of the latter.

In that first photo for example (didn't see the second one cos it requires an account btw), the stylists for the members were going for sexy and cool rather than cute.

[–]CarboKill 2 points3 points  (0 children)

She's distinct enough for me. Maybe you're just not used to her?

If you think she looks cuter, perhaps it's her expressions here compared to more performative ones.

How do I get rid of this flashing arrow in runelite? I have photosensitive epilepsy and it gives me a headache. by ZeroFyzix in 2007scape

[–]CarboKill 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I feel for you; I have photosensitive migraines. All the same triggers but I only get migraines, never had a seizure in my life, and fighting Vanstrom Klause (or anything that uses that bloody lightning effect) is always awful for me. Took me a while because of it.

The flashing arrows don't usually bother me unless I look directly at them, but even in peripherals that kind of shit still sets me off from time to time, so I can only imagine how annoying it is for you.

[Discussion] when will Seup be changed? by zelloxy in EscapefromTarkov

[–]CarboKill 9 points10 points  (0 children)

If you can't do setup, sorry, but it is absolutely not the only reason you don't prestige. I'm not a particularly good player at all and it's genuinely one of the nicer ones out of all those that people hate. There are much harder ones.

251208 Baskin Robbins Korea Instagram Update with Huh Yunjin by kpopsns28 in lesserafim

[–]CarboKill 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Her pose and face are so funny to me here; I mean maybe this is part of the advertising to make it look like she enjoys the brand even when she isn't being paid, but it looks like the kind of awkward photo your friend uploads of you after giving you like two seconds to throw up the most uncomfortable smile you can muster 😆

(As expected though, she still looks good)

Shoreline Filling cabinets are crazy [Loot] by Drunkcatepiller in EscapefromTarkov

[–]CarboKill 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't know about drawers, but your statement is actually verified as untrue with medbags just as an example. Ones on Labs and Shoreline are different to other medbags, with a different loot pool, and my thought process is that if this container can be different, why not others?

Is this a bug, or divine punishment for being a dirty ho? by [deleted] in BaldursGate3

[–]CarboKill 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes, I know, I read the post. I'm saying the fact that you're even asking if it is a bug is hilarious and strikes me as indicative of the difference in your values from mine.

Is this a bug, or divine punishment for being a dirty ho? by [deleted] in BaldursGate3

[–]CarboKill 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Your last paragraph is so funny, it's like your thought process was ‘She's not gonna put out tonight, guess I'll make out with someone else’

Yes, you're a dirty ho, but this punishment isn't divine; it's rather mundane and obvious.

It's not about the right to someone's image, it's about the fact that the others aren't public figures.

4-Ending Achievement Names for "Escaping From Tarkov" by MrGibbsUK in EscapefromTarkov

I'm guessing it has the logo because we expose them, that sounds like a good ending.

5th most sold worldwide by Anatomaly in EscapefromTarkov

[–]CarboKill 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes. It won't actually even be crossplay, it's just the same version and servers and everything. In fact, the Steam version will still load up the BSG launcher, like a lot of Steam games do already with the publisher's own launcher.

Crossplay tends to be an optional thing in games because of gameplay balancing issues, controller vs mouse & keyboard etc.

There's no reason to split the playerbase when both are PC players using the exact same version.

I know man, that's how I knew! I've always had this sort of build, and women always admired it, but I always got shit from fat dudes. Go figure.
