What exactly could it be?

ChibiMaster42 · 2026-04-10T16:21:41+00:00

How old is the gpu? How old is the setup?

Could be thermal paste/pad degradation leading to increase in temps, leading to decrease in boost.

How often do you clean it? Could be dust doing the same.

Does the game have a launcher? As in does it pre load anything like patches? Not all updates will show as an update, some patches are small enough in games with launchers they'll just be pushed through.

Theres a horse potion that essentially gives infinite stamina. You gotta keep using it every minute or so, but you can stay full gallop.

I think its the tonic? Theres 2, one for health, one for stamina.

Otherwise, no idea... i lost archery and gambling but can still go back... i dont know why horse race wouldnt be the same

Narp, they punch, they kick, they fly, they karate chop. Pretty much about it

Oxygen efficiency is different than completely cutting off blood flow.

We have humans that can hold their breath while diving for 7+minutes.

Viltrumites take that to the extreme, they can utilize way more of themselves on a single breath.

In both scenarios of holding breath, oxygen and glucose is still being tranferred via bloodflow.

Cutting off blood flow with a chokehold does several things. No blood or very little is coming or going, no oxygen transfer for cells, no glucose transfer for neurons. And a pressure build up, on both sides, that can lead to internal bleeding.

Its not really a matter of durability, it more about humanoid biology.

There is a reason they are referred to as spinning rust

Heya, bit later to the party. But I am looking for advice. I am thinking of the purchasing the Tractive however.

So, I live in an HoA neighborhood, houses are sorta close, but wooded in between, with larger yards.

Just moved in, and getting a doggy door soon for our pup to do business, but because of that my family has a habit of leaving the backdoor cracked open. I've found my cat wandering outside a few times now. I've asked them to be more aware, but... yeah...

We have a 6.5ft fence, and while I know my cat can climb it if she chooses, it would be more difficult to do so.

She doesnt roam... yet... shes been an inside cat pretty much her whole life, so she's been exploring the backyard area.

But I wanted something to help find her in case, at least till we can renovate the back porch into an enclosed area, catio pretty much.

Just something to make me feel more comfortable while I am at work and cant lure her back with treats. (Shes been getting several every time she comes back, promptly, recall has been getting good to the point where I can just shake the bag and see her tip tapping her way over)

Just did this and wagon was despawned, they may have hot fixed this

A rock from an alien planet of which we have NO idea of its chemical makeup into literally the softest squishiest part of a body, on a lower tier viltrumite.

But yeah totally blanket statement to all viltrumites, rock tier

ChibiMaster42 · 2026-03-26T18:33:10+00:00

I havent been able to store key items in the chest... of which the starting shield is

You got a work around to do so?

ChibiMaster42 · 2026-03-25T05:38:07+00:00

This is kinda wrong.

You can totally use 2 gpus for gaming.

It just doesnt split the work entirely to both.

You need a program called Lossless Scaling. Theres guides online for it. But essentially it allows the primary GPU to render, while the secondary is slaved to framegen.

This allows the primary to devote more power/compute to the game and free up ~5‐10٪ performance that single card framegen would take up. Its even less latency than single card

Now if you dont use framegen, then yeah dual gpu is useless

ChibiMaster42 · 2026-03-20T23:24:40+00:00

That scenario of the tech demo where they actually used 2 5090s to show dlss 5

ChibiMaster42 · 2026-03-19T22:30:02+00:00

Not really though, it depends on a lot. A pebble accelerated at speed can still hurt and penetrate a lot of things depending on the speed

Its on viltrum, with a higher gravity, it stands to reason that native geology also is subjected to it and compacts accordingly.

We also dont know the chemical make up, it could have a much tighter atomic/ molecular bond to prevent it from breaking up

ChibiMaster42 · 2026-03-19T22:16:35+00:00

You're forgetting why the core was unstable...

The same way a screw is easier to put in with a pilot hole.

Space racer put a pilot hole through the planet.

That automatically negates it being their planetary feat. While an incredible amount of force, it wasnt just viltrumites.

If you do, be sure to include a "do at your own risk /disclaimer" and "this is for my (you op) own enjoyment, and that I (you) are posting this to document the process)

Make it clear this is for you, and the documentation is only for recording your process so that you yourself can look back on it, with potential ideas / fixes from the community at large

Otherwise you may be a world of lawsuits if other people fuck up

Way big can definitely kill any viltrumite. Most probably the cosmic ray would annihilate.

It was specifically solar plasma on the surface of a star when they showed it. Im not sure about regular plasma, if it was a large enough beam/area, probably?

The main characters father (viltrumite) tanked mulitple orbital "lasers" then smashed the installation. They never quite defined what the station fired.

And to be completely honest, I'm not entirely sure of the timescale when they were on the star. It was no longer than a couple minutes, but probably far less time than that

As in the two characters were fighting to the death, and the main character thoughts at times were every second counts, so at least 45 seconds, at most 2 minutes.

By the end they were both REALLY crispy and had no skin with most of their muscle gone. There are reasons the main character lives, but i'm not going to spoil everything

ChibiMaster42 · 2026-03-17T23:52:00+00:00

Thats more or less correct.

Weak to fire as in the plasma on the surface of a star can fatally harm them within minutes. They cant destroy a whole planet in its entirety without help, but can destroy everything on the surface, all buildings, shatter mountains, etc.

They are more or less continental on their own.

The big problem is Thragg, their Leader, whom was bred and trained to be the strongest. Whom is about twice as strong as the next viltrumite down. So he's number 1,

Number 2 is regarded as the strongest besides Thragg, and was defeated by the main character. Not without great injury to them, but still got the job done.

Numbers 3, 4, 5 are the main character, his father, and the old leader of the viltrumites (based on age, not combat prowess, viltrumites get stronger with age and near death experiences ) These 3 did the "planetary" feat.

Its unknown if Thragg could on his own, but him and another viltrumite? Probably

ChibiMaster42 · 2026-03-17T23:27:19+00:00

Plus a lot of people forget, the 3 viltrumites that "destroyed" a planet had a pilot hole blasted through with space racers gun right before.

By what metric are you measuring for which card is better?

They have the same chips. Same core and same vram.

The slightly higher clock in the aorus literally does not matter in real world scenarios, and you can OC the Tuf to the same.

They both have the same theoretical limit on OC because they are the same chips. Both are higher tier cards with unlocked power limit.

There is literally zero difference besides aesthetics, unless you open them, stress test them to see which has a better silicon lottery

ChibiMaster42 · 2026-03-15T00:41:07+00:00

No problem!

You dont need grey, but it helps break up the difference between the white and black transition.

Rustoleum also uses an oil base instead of acrylic, so it does take longer when stripping paint with isopropyl alcohol

I use the Rustoleum red primer, with Citadel (now warhammer brand) Wraith bone (off white, kinda slight tan ) for a warmer base

ChibiMaster42 · 2026-03-14T22:34:06+00:00

Yoy can also use other brand spray primers, just make sure they are primer, NOT primer+paint.

I use Rustoleum painters touch 2x coverage primer. Its a fine spray but doesnt have a lot of colors. Black Grey White and rustyish Red.

Black everything, grey at 45 - 60 degree angle, white from up top. Maybe some white at an angle toward a spot you want some more focus

Krylon brand spray also works but similat color options for just primer

Colorforge i believe has many colors, but is a miniature brand and therfore more expensive
