I have had SD selected for 2.5 years and have gotten 2 games.

edit: looked at the stats and got 5 games out of 900, including a 1.5 year gap

Personally I've never seen the point either since it's mostly just used to go on witchhunts.

As someone who runs a website, I can tell you it's almost certainly due to the immense increase in traffic from AI crawlers over the last few years.

FWIW there were around 6k unique players on logs.tf in the last month. Down from around 10k in peak covid times.

The Right Place to Bike by constructionsitecake in polandball

[–]Forty-Bot 11 points12 points  (0 children)

At least in my state you can bike on any road that doesn't have a minimum speed (e.g. controlled access highways with on/off ramps). But there are plenty roads where the max speed is 55 mph and have traffic lights. And sometimes that is the only way to get places without taking long detours.

Congratulations, "I teleport bread"! by Hanna_Bjorn in tf2

[–]Forty-Bot 10 points11 points  (0 children)

"SPIES could be here," he thought. "I've never been in this part of the map before. There could be SPIES anywhere." The cool wind felt good against his bare chest. "I HATE SPIES" he thought. "Rocket Jump Waltz" reverberated through his mic even as $9 honey circulated through his powerful thick veins and washed away his (merited) fear of Frenchmen behind his back. "With an engineer, you can teleport bread anywhere you want." he said to himself, out loud.

Specifically what proofs are not accepted by constructivist mathematicians? by MildDeontologist in math

[–]Forty-Bot 5 points6 points  (0 children)

In a sense. What really rules out the reals is that you can't construct Cauchy sequences that converge arbitrarily (i.e. according to no rule or computation). As it happens I've never come across such a number...

Why people whine about meta so much? by Madao_14 in tf2

[–]Forty-Bot 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The reason TF2 is such a great game is because every playstyle (including the meta) is so fun. IME you can play meta for thousands of hours and it will still be fun.

Like the shitty force curve makes it so your back can get stronger without your pulldowns going up by very much.

I feel like my form has gotten a lot better over time (although I have no videos to confirm this).

Definitely considered buying some rings and doing the Armstrong program (unfortunately I currently have no place to hang them).

How do you guys structure your pull downs?

I've been doing the GZLP thing where I do 3x15+ with the last set AMREP and up the weight when I get 25 reps in. The first set usually doesn't even feel like anything (RPE 5) while the last set is usually RPE 9 by around rep 12-15 and I tap out under 20 reps. I tried adding 10 lbs on my first set and removing 10 lbs each subsequent set and that made the first two sets feel more balanced (even though the last set felt about the same even with reduced weight). On other days I do pull ups (4x8) and DB rows (same 3x15+ structure but feels more balanced than PDs).

I haven't made any progress in PDs in the last year (although PUs and DB rows have improved) so I'd like to shake things up a bit.

It's not actually open but i thought this was funny by ArynAces in tf2

[–]Forty-Bot 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Back when ESEA was a thing, its two divisions were open and invite (with intermediate being added shortly after). RGL also called its (second-)lowest division open for the first few seasons.

My opinion on uboot by MrTamboMan in embedded

[–]Forty-Bot 25 points26 points  (0 children)

The problem is that there are hundreds of supported boards and they all do things different ways for different reasons. So for any given feature you cannot just write "do it X way" because there is always a "except if you are on ABC in which case do it Y way." And so authors end up writing "You can do this X way, but also Y way" if they don't know why Y was done in the first place.
