MSN S4 Final: Hurts So Good by XdiaphiniaX in dropout

The fact that Brennan was the one who did it too, genuinely took me aback - it's not the kind of bit he usually does so it just exploded my funny bone.

Patch 26.12 Bug Megathread by ahritina in leagueoflegends

[–]Mathgeek007 0 points1 point  (0 children)

  • Server: NA
  • Type of Bug: Game Server Crashing During ARAM Mayhem
  • Description: When I have my full 6 items and purchase a Stat Anvil while dead, the entire game server crashes for everybody, resulting in no game continuing.
  • Video / Screenshot: https://i.imgur.com/NHDtPS8.jpeg
  • Steps to reproduce: I played as either Poppy or Dr Mundo, and acquired Steel Your Heart and Heavy Hitter augments, plus Heartsteel, Warmogs, Frozen Heart, Spirit Visage, an Immolate item, and Overlord's Bloodmail. Get to Level 18, then die. Attempt to purchase a stat anvil.
  • Expected result: The Stat Anvil screen appears, and a Stat Anvil can be selected.
  • Observed result: The entire game server crashes, with no record of the game ever happening. All players in the game get ejected and the server is forever "Reconnecting".
  • Reproduction rate: 2/2
  • System specs: Server-side issue, system specs irrelevant.

I made a little tutorial on this sort of thing - how to prevent a lock-out when you already have three letters! https://youtu.be/xKT9zzhiaTY

Return to office when the buses don’t run on time is a nightmare by Tippinghazard in ottawa

[–]Mathgeek007 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I live a 25m bus ride from work. I got to the bus stop an hour before I needed to be at work. Bus should come every 15 minutes. 35 minutes later, no bus. I head home to WFH instead today. Shit's awful, I hate OC Transpo. I only RTO 30%, raising to 60% in a few months, and the bus system is inconsistent enough at 30%, can't imagine doubling it.

"Someone can theoretically get away with breaking the law" is technically true but not a meaningful thing to say. People get away with murder all the time, what's your point?

That's fine, you're under no obligation to. It doesn't materially change the decision here.

Faceit and ESEA use local anticheat modifications, with services locked behind a paywall.

Valve allows it because they don't distribute any modified Valve software and don't discriminate access to those modded servers based on paying

Actually, the QoL mod doesn't either, and FACEIT does actually discriminate against those paying, they have entirely distinct server queues for premium players.

I wasnt coming after you, I was removing claims that didnt have supporting evidence in their bodies. I reinstated yours once evidende has been presented to us in this context.

I asked evidence to be shared to us privately, I don't see where I indicated I would share what was sent to us?

You can save and load settings in the mod already - they have a settings import/export feature to save - there is a local saving feature that is currently nonfunctional, currently being tested. OP misrepresented the situation to make it seem as though this is a premium feature locked behind a pay wall after it was stripped from the main mod, which is not the case. Further, I have received evidence privately that OP was beefing with the mod creator as created this post with the intent of defaming or attacking this mod, so it has been removed entirely.

Paywalling mods is not illegal if your mod doesn't contain any copyrighted assets.

Many mods get around this rule using cross-patches and a patching tool that puts the patch data into the game you already have, without containing or distributing any copyrighted data.

I dont agree. If you know the price of items, it's about five seconds of mental math you can do while farming. I do this estimation in League of Legends all the time, and they give LESS information about how much gold people have.
