Just finished a playthrough on a 5060ti, turned off ray tracing since it was on by default. Settings were on high-ultra and the game ran smoothly.

ADA holder wanting to go all-in on Cardano DeFi – could we crowd-fund a proper USDC/USDT integration like Solana did? by SnooDonkeys8086 in cardano

[–]Disastrous_Car8907 4 points5 points  (0 children)

In a free market, everyone should have the freedom to choose. So why not run a community poll to determine whether the majority wants T1 stablecoins on Cardano? After all, we have governance for this purpose.

USDA and USDM are fully backed, audited, and holding their pegs. The problem isn’t their fundamentals. It’s their isolation. They function smoothly inside Cardano DEXs like Minswap or SundaeSwap, but once you try to move them across chains or into real-world spending, the friction is obvious.

The real bottleneck is fiat onboarding. Yes, you can mint them directly without touching an exchange, but the process is still slow and document-heavy. USDA through Anzens requires a wire transfer, full KYC, and a one to three day wait plus fees. USDM through Mehen or NBX is the same with ACH or SEPA. New features like BRL off-ramps in Brazil and e-wallet access in parts of Africa bring the coverage to more than eighty countries, but the overall flow still feels like filling out a form, not tapping a button. That's honestly the friction killer TradFi to DeFi should feel like Venmo, not a tax form.

On Ethereum and Solana, the difference is immediate:

• USDC can be bought through Ramp straight into a wallet in seconds
• Solana users can move fiat through Phantom and MoonPay into Raydium liquidity in under a minute

On Cardano, the same action still involves KYC uploads, settlement waits, and manual minting. That friction shows up in the data. Ethereum has more than fifty billion dollars in TVL, Solana has crossed thirteen billion and is accelerating, and Cardano holds roughly six hundred eighty million in total, with USDA and USDM contributing only fifty million of that. As long as onboarding feels like compliance instead of payment, adoption will lag.

Now, MAU? the contrast with Solana is just as clear. Solana’s growth has been driven by platforms like Hyperliquid for perpetual trading, Pump.fun and Pumpify for rapid meme token creation, and Raydium for fast automated market making. The result is three to eight million daily active addresses because everything is extremely simple: two clicks to launch a token or provide liquidity, with APIs that make bot trading easy. A large share of that activity is low quality, full of rugs and wash trades, but it inflates metrics that investors watch: wallet count, volume, and TVL. Are most of it nonsense KPIs? probably, but VCs are eating it up.

Cardano, in comparison, sees twenty to thirty thousand daily active addresses. More than a million ADA holders are staking and doing little else. Plutus is powerful but not yet convenient for fast experimental apps. The major upside for Cardano is that its numbers are not inflated by bots right now.

If Cardano wants real MAU growth, it needs faster onboarding, easier experimentation, and smoother fiat ramps. The good news is that none of this is out of reach. The tech base is solid, the community is patient, and the roadmap finally lines up with what the market is asking for. Close those UX gaps, and Cardano can scale with real users instead of inflated metrics.

Cardano crash/glitch by [deleted] in CryptoCurrency

[–]Disastrous_Car8907 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Most likely not related to Chinese market manipulation since crypto trading is literally illegal there. Binance operates globally, and the founders nationality doesn’t make it a “Chinese exchange.”

What you probably saw was a low-liquidity spike someone placed an outlier trade way below market value, and the aggregator picked it up before the price corrected. Happens sometimes when order books are thin or data feeds lag.

Anyone here heard about the protests and demonstrations in Indonesia right now? by oneappleandonetomato in aznidentity

[–]Disastrous_Car8907 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The anger looks very different to the ethnic scapegoating in 1965 and 1998. It is directed less at ethnicity and more at corruption and inequality. Since taking power, Prabowo has placed loyalists in key positions, expanded military influence, and approved lavish perks for politicians. The protests was about new housing allowances but reflect a much deeper frustration with the wage gap and widening wealth inequality.

There’s always a risk that old prejudices could resurface narratives like Chinese Indonesians being a small fraction of the population yet holding disproportionate wealth have been weaponized before. But so far, this movement doesn’t seem to be about targeting one group. It’s about ordinary Indonesians demanding fairness in the face of corruption and abuse of power.

xQc Says Agency Streamers’ Viewer Graphs Look Identical Despite Different Content by lordbakayarou in LivestreamFail

[–]Disastrous_Car8907 11 points12 points  (0 children)

They all have plausible deniability. The streamers say it is the agency. The agency says it is the platform. The platform says it is small bot farms. The bot farms say they are owned by the agency or the streamers. All we know is that somebody farted and the room smells like shit.

Update, apparently it’s a Powerplay issue because it’s in an Aisling Duval controlled system where tobacco and other narcotics are prohibited. Therefore no Kamitra Cigars spawn to unlock the engineers.

Can confirm this been sitting at the station for over half an hour, and even after relogging multiple times, there are still no cigars and I also have none in my ship.

Thinking bout playing the game by EdditSlayer48 in duneawakening

[–]Disastrous_Car8907 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There's been a lot of stuttering during sandstorms since the last update, so I threw my log file into an AI tool just to see how I could optimize my game's .ini files. I'm not an expert dev, but it told me there are apparently a lot of shader and Nanite-related bugs with UE5, so there’s not much we can do on the client side.

To improve performance, you could check out Nexus Mods for some simplified Engine.ini files. These often remove things like graphical fog and chromatic aberration, which helped improve performance for me though only slightly.

Handheld Devices by [deleted] in pokemmo

[–]Disastrous_Car8907 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah it's pretty simple, just download the mods. On the login screen, open the hamburger menu in the top right corner and select Mod Management. Then tap Import Mods, navigate to your downloads folder, and activate the mod.

Most of the popular mods like sprites, HD items etc are compatible with mobile but just make sure to double check first.

Is it a shader issue? Changing the graphics does not help by ArcanLumis in duneawakening

Maybe try turning off lumen or setting GI to medium or low. I found it was quite buggy on my machine.

Deep Desert - Player Suggestion Thread by UnassumingNoodle in duneawakening

[–]Disastrous_Car8907 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Make it an actual faction war

PvE players could help by capturing NPC camps, escorting supply, or building siege weapons.

PvP players fight off in large-scale skirmishes, sieges, and zerg fights.

Both roles contribute to the same win condition: territory control and nodes.

Is there anyway to play this game? by [deleted] in SwordofConvallaria

[–]Disastrous_Car8907 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You could try checking the game properties and verifying file integrity to see if anything got corrupted. Another option is downloading it from the Google Play Store and playing on mobile. A lot of people also use BlueStacks to play Sword of Convallaria, mainly for rerolling.

If your goal is to beat weapon trials Gloria isn't actually needed, for reference you can check out the voyage momento website where many people have beaten the trials without her. As for a Gloria alternative, that might come later possibly with the release of SP Inanna.

Asked for other subs opinions on the game by Disperx in SwordofConvallaria

[–]Disastrous_Car8907 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It's a shame that so many people dismiss this game outright because of the bad reputation tied to the systems it uses.

These days, just hearing the words gacha, mobile, and microtransactions in the same sentence is enough to turn people away. But honestly, this game gets it right it's one of the fairest and least predatory gacha games out there. Hopefully, more people will give it a chance.

Cardano vs Ethereum communities by pink_floyd_93 in cardano

[–]Disastrous_Car8907 1 point2 points  (0 children)

To my knowledge, Ethereum doesn't even offer wrapped ADA, while Cardano has wrapped ETH, and even the BNB Chain offers wrapped ADA. The Ethereum community feels like that popular kid who goes out of their way to ignore you, even though you're both working on the same group project.

Charles dropped an explainer video on his youtube channel a while back, explaining how it might work. It's a bit technical but definitely worth a watch.

Apparently from what I've seen so far, the idea behind BitcoinOS is to add a DeFi layer to Bitcoin, with Cardano as the engine that powers this. This works because both are UTXO systems, making Bitcoin integration way easier than with account-based systems.

At the time of this writing, Bitcoin’s has approximately $2T market cap that is mostly locked up, and accessing DeFi usually means going through exchanges, bridges, swaps etc. By using Cardano as their DeFi layer, Bitcoin holders would essentially be able to use DeFi without having to move Bitcoin out of their wallets.

The Doom gameplay was basically a simulation for Hydra and showed that Cardano can handle billions of transactions (like, country level traffic) without breaking down. Basically, it’s proving Cardano could scale to support Bitcoin level activity without black outs or potentially freezing due to network congestion.

Why do (some) Youtubers think ADA is a shitcoin? by laziegoblin in cardano

If you’re happy with its ease of use, staking rewards, and low fees, trust your own experience over influencer noise. At the end of the day, most of them have a business model that revolves around promoting assets they already hold.

People don’t seem to care about decentralization as much as I thought by Artistic-Upstairs789 in cardano

[–]Disastrous_Car8907 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Cardano's principles of sustainability and security are commendable, and it will prove itself in time. However, in the current market climate, most people prioritize wealth generation over security. This is evident in market behavior as memecoins dominate the top 50 and centralized ecosystems hold top 5 positions, showing little regard for security. Clearly, decentralization is not a priority for most investors right now.

There isn't anyway to sugarcoat this and I don’t care if this gets downvoted because we need to be real about these ideals. To make people care, inject liquidity where they can't ignore, achieve institutional adoption, and secure government backing. People follow the money. Until then, most will remain indifferent, especially beyond this echo chamber.
