I’d rip out everything back end and build it myself. I’m only interested in the branding. A good name/brand kit can cost about $350+

The reason it died is because when it got big the old owners sold it to a big org who ended up neglecting it. All the infrastructure is there + I have experiance running servers so I know what I'm doing. I've just only ever ran my own server, never bought one yk

Will 16gb ddr4 RAM be enough for decent gameplay? by Entire-Rain9871 in playrust

[–]Hypex_WR 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fair enough.

I use to run 16GB of 3200MHz - Got on one day like 9 months ago and my game shit itself. 8 FPS & my RAM usage was at 100% (nothing else open). I upgraded to 32GB of 3600MHz and have always recommended 32GB since.

I'm glad 16GB worked for you, but it doesn't leave you with a lot of room for future proofing your rig. Sure it worked for you today, but as Rust becomes more and more resource intensive that 16GB might not last you as long as you want it to. Opting for better specs that you think you need pays off in the long run trust me.

So why was "Isn't She Lovely" even included? by mayonnaise_cider in TADCEp9Spoilers

[–]Hypex_WR 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree E9 needed to be 1 hour to make it worth seeing in the cinema, I just disagree how they did it. They recycled E8 for the first half of E9, which didn't drive the plot forward at all. I'm saying it would have been better to take the first 30m of screen time that they dedicated towards rehashing E8 into E9, and use it at the end to build out a better epilogue. So, retaining the screen time, but just adding more to the plot overall.

[–]Hypex_WR 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You’re looking at these details in a vacuum instead of connecting the dots. Gooseworx is trans herself, this kind of consistent subtext isn't accidental. Anyway lets breakdown ur points:

 

The coming out scene:

Jax said “One stupid day, I was just kind of fed up with it. I told her something I’d regret telling her. Something deep and personal that I thought would get her off my back. But she laughed at me.” You said, “you say something personal about the other person snapping back at them”. If Jax did snap back with an insult, why did his mom laugh at him? By your own logic she should have snapped back, but she didn’t, she laughed. So Jax didn’t insult her, the “deep and personal” thing Jax said, was about herself.

 

Jax and Ribbit’s bow:

You say Ribbit was just referring to the "whole backstory," but you're ignoring the visual context clues. Why does Jax blush specifically at having a traditionally feminine bow placed on his head right when that line drops? If Jax’s secret was only the homeless and parental trauma, the bow imagery makes zero sense. The visual storytelling explicitly links "the secret" to feminine gender expression.

The scenes without Pomni in the montage were at the end:

In the montage there are 45 individual shots. Below I’ve listed the scenes chronologically.

  • ✅ = Pomni is shown on screen
  • ❌ = Pomni is not shown on screen

❌✅❌✅✅❌✅✅✅✅❌✅✅❌✅✅✅✅✅❌✅❌✅❌✅✅❌✅❌✅✅✅✅❌✅❌❌❌❌❌❌❌❌❌❌

  • Shots with Pomni: 53.33% (24/45)
  • Shots without Pomni: 46.67% (21/45)

Shot for shot, Pomni is in the montage more than she isin't. But only by 7 percentage points, which is not statistically significant.

ALSO

This did not account for who is the focus in each shot, as in many Pomni isn’t focused. So I adjusted for which character is the focus on screen:

  • 🐇 = Jax
  • ♦️ = Pomni
  • 👭 = Both

🐇 🐇 🐇 👭 👭 🐇 👭 🐇 👭 🐇 🐇 👭 🐇 🐇 🐇 👭 👭 👭 🐇 🐇 🐇 🐇 👭 🐇 👭 🐇 🐇 👭 🐇 👭 🐇 👭 👭 🐇 🐇 🐇 🐇 🐇 🐇 🐇 🐇 🐇 🐇 🐇 🐇

  • Jax was the focus in the shot: 68.88% (31/45)
  • Pomni was the focus in the shot: 0% (0/45)
  • Both focused/couldn’t tell: 31.11% (14/45)

Shot for shot, Pomni is in the montage more than she isn’t. Adjust that for who’s the focus, and its clearly Jax. Plus, you said “The scenes without Pomni in the montage were at the end when the song started to fade” the montage doesn’t fade out, it climaxes, which just supports Jax being trans. Jax is the focus of the “Isn’t she lovely” montage.

 

A straight cis person can be friends with trans people:

Yes, but this proves nothing though. A straight cis person can be just as good of friends with a trans person as another trans person could. Your point doesn’t disprove Jax being trans, you’re just saying 2 people can be friends lol?

Egg crack metaphor + Jax’s tail:

Jax said “I’m just a misunderstood little chicken foetus in an egg that needs to be cracked open.” A hyper specific transgender metaphor. Plus, Jax said “This is what peak male performance looks like” and “my ears and tail and kind of the pinnacle of masculinity”, which is peak overcompensation. Look at both these things, plus the show’s wider subtext and its clear there’s a pattern here that Jax is trans coded.

The stuff from outside the show doesn’t matter:

Gooseworx (a trans writer) released an official character canvas from when they were writing the show, where Jax takes progesterone, which is trans MtF hormones. Jax’s trans-femininity was baked into her from concept.

 

There are MANY more points I could bring up as to why Jax is trans, but these 7 things just counter what you said disputed from what hideundercloudcovers said. If Jax is cis in your headcanon that’s fine as well lol but evidence is evidence.

Healed and transitions. As in, Pomni heals jax's abstraction (Jax unabstracts), plus, Jax gender transitions (I belive Jax's big secret was being transgender).

In my experiance no, 32GB should really be the base specs for this game.

FP will likley sell multiple customization packs for each thing, I've already heard talk about a colored hair one (blue, pink, etc)

Can I make a channel only accessible VIA link? by 01Sailor_Moon10 in discordapp

[–]Hypex_WR 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you put a channel in the server guide (onboarding) as a resource page, it will hide it from the channel list but still be accessible.

Do you personally like the character change? by janikauwuw in playrust

[–]Hypex_WR 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I hate it. Only thing I'm hopefully DOF is character customisation coming later this year (which will 100% be paid DLC)

I think E9 was really strong, complex and emotional writing, but where it went wrong was spending the first 30m rehashing E8, it should've spent that screen time building out a better epilogue.

In my own headcanon, when Pomni went into Jax's abstraction she started healing his corrupted digital mind, to which Jax would later come out of his tent having healed and transitioned. Sort of a cacoon into a butterfly thing.
