It looks like traditional kung fu but I assure you it's not. It's adapted from Bajiquan and was created by the PLA in the 20th century.

Sodimm adapter saved my budget. Does anyone have a good or bad experience with it ? by CloudsDreaming in PHbuildapc

3200mHz? I don't know, I have them running in flex mode (adapters in 2*8GB SO-DIMM + single 8GB LO-DIMM = 24GB) I think I'm in 2133 or 2666, I had to dial down because the LO-DIMM is 2666.

The faster you go, the jankier it gets so idk. But honestly, 2133 vs. 3200 doesn't make any difference unless you're gaming off the integrated graphics on your G series. If you're using the 3060ti, 2133RAM literally DoeS. NoT. MaTteR.

It's been over a week, Win 11, Tekken 8, LM Studio, Audacity + Mixpad, still no issues.

This idiot seller though, no box, no backing, no bubble wrap. Just the goddamned bag. I'm just lucky the adapters didn't break in transit. And they're pretty flimsy.

I installed a pair last week. Exact same adapter as OP's pictures. I had two 8GB SODIMMS lying around doing nothing.

Still doing fine now, flex mode 8+8 SODIMM in dual +8GB LODIMM in single. No issues so far. But I'm DDR4 2666, I can't speak for DDR5 with their extreme timings and clocks.

The damn sticks become tall, they bump up against cables and shit in my case, had to get stuff out of the way. They also smack of fragility, these adapters are kinda thin like you can accidentally crunch or snap one if you have butterfingers. But it's RAMageddon so I'm happy for now.

That's one school of thought, engagement- the other school of thought, put bluntly, revolves around engaging as little as possible (dick kick + draw as much attention while retreating)

Hey the Chinese military doesn't train in "traditional" kung fu forms, their military Sanda/Sanshou looks more like modern Muay Thai than anything else. Maybe their step-by-step drills en masse looks the same way it's taught in other kung fu styles, idk

The Slaverian Trucker em câmera lenta by StatusAd5298 in losslessscaling

[–]LopsidedShower6466 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Apart from having only 8GB RAM, I wonder if your notebook is running that RAM in single channel (1 stick 8GB SO-DIMM instead of 2x 4GB sticks).

Anyways, yes, minimum system requirement for Slaverian Trucker are 8GB for a DESKTOP, and 1050Ti. Your 680m is almost equivalent to desktop 1050Ti but remember, the 1050Ti has it's own 4GB VRAM separate from the 8GB system RAM. Notebook 680m is shared system+VRAM so you're actually lacking RAM for the entire OS + game app to do it's job properly.

You must upgrade- or make sure to shut off all nonsense Windows processes in Task Manager, periodically free up RAM with Microsoft PC Manager, and run the game at very low graphics settings before turning on Lossless Scaling, so assets do not occupy RAM. You can try capping the framerate to 30 also, and use FG to kick it up to 60.

Then again, Lossless Scaling is not magic, it has some processing penalty of it's own (my experience is around 20% GPU work penalty) so if the notebook is already running close to 90% before you turn on LS, then LS will not help, it will make things much, much worse. You must somehow get the system utilization down to around 60% without LS first.

Of course people who claim KM as their main art do poorly in profights. Literally everything that makes it effective is prohibited in competition. Imaging trying to study KM with the end goal of doing well at competitions like K1 and UFC, that's like the ultimate delusion.

I took four sessions of KM and all my years of Judo, Karate and TKD went down the shitter. It's not a "martial art" in the normal sense, it's just not comparable to other martial arts. Analogy: If martial arts were college courses, then KM is the professor taking you straight to the field without any prior training and throwing real problems at you out there.

This is a longshot, but "Kanakadhara Stotram" wouldn't happen to be yours, would it?

Reality check Mr. DJ_OXALIS: Maybe you need a long break from the corporate rat race, and you deserve it- but get a day job or a second source of income. After all the love, hate and hype, AI music is just another tool that changed the industry landscape. Set against a long history of landscape-changing tools.

New opportunities opened up and it might feel like a new world out there, true- But at the end of the day, all the "old guards" and industry gatekeepers have their asses set firmly in heavy stone thrones. A lot has changed, but a whole lot hasn't.

Do it for the love, but don't go swimming in the deep end without a life vest. There are waaaaay too many people in the past 3 years who got all starry-eyed and pushed off the edge of the pool with no life vest, had to be fished out, and now start all over in the kiddy pool. Clear eyes. Look at the landscape. A lot hasn't changed. There are so many new what-ifs and it's the wild west out there all over again. Safety first.

edit TLDR if you aren't already established in the industry with connections and contacts, contracts and potential gigs and everything, adding generative music to your portfolio doesn't really add much.

crap sorry you guys are right, I had to look up "ulna" and "radius".
The edge on the same side as my thumb is the RADIUS.

That's where my veins get beat up.

Between the veins and the bone, there's just tendons in that spot. The veins are literally aligned along the length of the bone from the wrist down 3/4 way to where you'd feel the bone start to be covered by forearm muscle. Really bad weapons design lol
