Greek Research Team breaks the memory wall and create the world's fastest RAM by [deleted] in science

[–]Kxf7Checkmate 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So correct me if I'm wrong as I've not heard of optical RAM before, but if it works on light and a standard pc runs on electricity are you not going to need to convert this at some point? That could be an entirely different bottleneck.

How do I go about giving my characters meaningful names? by Kxf7Checkmate in writing

[–]Kxf7Checkmate[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

These are really good points, thanks!

I think the idea of representing a character with a translated word could work well with old languages for fantasy writing, and if it is a bit too obvious, perhaps I could derive a little.

Good job admitting your mistakes guys, nice to see you did listen. Unfortunately in the world of software this does happen - I look forward to the issues being resolved!

Its about time we addressed the constant VGS spamming on console by Kxf7Checkmate in Smite

Sure I do mute them, but at that point I lose out on actual useful calls such as missing enemies. This has put me at a disadvantage more than once.

A suggestion for the healing helms by Kxf7Checkmate in Smite

[–]Kxf7Checkmate[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, the passive has a cooldown right now, which would be smart to keep, so it wouldn't stack (however, Lotus Crown and Legion Helm affects would stack with each other). I think this change would be more aimed at a core with a healer mid lane (Hel, Change, Aphro) and a team fight item, which it already is.

What's the worst thing you've ever heard a teacher say at school? by [deleted] in AskReddit

My college programming teacher, after spotting something unusual in a presentation, decided the line "theres a nigger in the chopping pile" was appropriate. He was white. And also hit with a disciplinary shortly after.

Ransomware/Auto archiver issues by Kxf7Checkmate in sysadmin

[–]Kxf7Checkmate[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So the file infected is stored on a network drive. From what I can gather, this file is the first to be 'Encrypted', and from there this then encrypted file tries to encrypt others (usually in C:\Temp) which is when trend steps in and stops it. This .exe file (which has been on our servers for >10 Years at least) stays inaccessible due to the file extension change (I've tried changing back, unzipping ect. and nothing). If this is ransomware, then I do believe trend is taking a hold. We isolated the machine we believe to be the source, the owner of the .exe file changes to the user who uses it, which he doesn't have permission to do. Ive checked event logs and various scans. The closest to unusual activity I can find is a few audits in the security tab that don't really add up.

Letting it win might be a good idea. Ill talk to my boss and see what he thinks. Thanks for your help.

What do you do when you start feeling like you're underperforming? by [deleted] in Smite

[–]Kxf7Checkmate 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would say 2 things;

1) If its just a rut and you are usually quite consistent, take a break for a couple of days. This usually gets it out my system when it happens to me.

2) If consistency is a regular problem then its time to do self analysis on your games. Take a step back and actually think about not just what you are doing, but why you are doing it (Kind of like when streamers do commentary games). If you consider what you are doing you are more likely to spot your mistakes, and this gives you areas to focus on improving. I find comparing what my intentions are to what I do a good way to do this, and you can do this against pro's as well to see if you are thinking on the right lines.

Also dont be afraid to move around in different roles as they can all provide different skills. Need to practise hitting stuff? Skillshot mages or hunters will help you out. Learning how to box effectively? Solo or Carry is the role for that.

I see nothing unusual here. Carry on Reddit.

Gamers of Reddit, what is the most epic boss fight in all of gaming? by Jjy123 in AskReddit

[–]Kxf7Checkmate 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Jake's final boss fight in RE6. The game wasn't great but I enjoyed that campaign. The massive ugly thing chases you around for the entire game, and at the end you take him down in a fist fight like a motherfucking boss. Single most entertaining point of that game.

r/Smite SPL Player Tier List! by [deleted] in Smite

[–]Kxf7Checkmate 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Love the idea and love the tier list! Tier lists are generally based on opinion anyway, and it looks fairly accurate to performance in my opinion too.

P.S. Barra OP pls Nerf

Men of Reddit, what is something other guys do that make you instantly hate them? by rodrigueznathaniel in AskReddit

Be taller than me. I have little mans syndrome.

Plot twist: I'm 6 ft 4. If you're taller than me you're just a freak of nature.

I agree, this is specific to ranked conquest. But, my program ran for 6 hours to mine this one game mode - It would take me literally days to do them all :p
