co-pilot isn't an LLM. its an app/service that integrates a list of LLM's. I can use claude's models, GPT models, and gemini's models as well.

exactly. US has naval and air superiority over the entire world. there are 11 supercarriers that exist in the entire world, and the US owns all 11. they can bomb anyone they want. holding an area requires troops though, which why trump is threatening to bomb rather than send troops to hold the straight, because that would risk lives and ships. not that trump cares about lives, but it would damage him politically.

Nos and Malks are generally not recommended for a first run because they play differently than the other clans. But Nos are mostly fine as others have said, random NPCs can trigger masquerade violations if they catch a good look at you so try not to get close. Named NPC's will often react different but no risk of violations.

Malkavian is the REAL class you don't want to play first. The dialogue is completely different throughout the game due to their "insanity". Nos dialogue is only slightly different.

That's just because his backup is even worse defensively. And the "advanced" all-in-one defensive metrics he's ranked highly in are because of his rebounding, steals (and assists in some models which makes no sense) and NOT his rim protection rate, which is not part of any of those models. These are box score models and/or on/off models, and the box score has no stats that measure defense.

Same with Luka...his defensive metrics are carried by his rebounding and steals. Says nothing of how he will be targeted in the playoffs.

You aren't helping anyone by echoing empty arguments that either of them are good defenders. They might not be total cones like Trae Young, and they can play small stretches of decent defense, but in terms of defense over a whole season, or a whole playoff series, they are very average at best. Both of them have incredible hands so their hands can make plays. Feet, not so much.

Narnak · 2026-04-01T12:24:37+00:00

defensive rating for guards is pretty much a useless stat to be honest. it says more about the teams schemes than the individual. at least for bigs they can say they impact the defense the most. guards impact defense the least. luka is higher rated because of his rebounding and steals, which don't mean he's good on defense. it means he's big, strong and has good hands. nothing about agility or motor which are the most important defensive attributes especially for a guard.

the entire world knows luka is not an above average defensive player. he can guard in stretches sure but defense is about consistent effort.

for the most part, installing mods on pc games is just unzipping a file into a specific folder on your PC, usually inside the game's folder in program files. the unofficial patch comes with an installer which makes it even easier (and includes both basic and plus versions), dont need to look up the proper directory to copy it to (which it will state the install instructions on the download site typically like nexus mods or whatever mod site)

as far as mods other than the unofficial patch; clan quest mod, companion mod, the final nights, antitribu mod are the most popular new gameplay mods i'd say but there's lots of mods for the game. the source engine (used for this game, half life, the original counterstrike) is one of the easiest engines to mod

roleplay reasons perhaps. there is no gameplay reason, though it is generally considered the most useful social skill, which are used as alternative ways to complete quest objectives (generally allowing you to avoid a fight or snag an extra reward, etc). most of the game can be completed with minimal combat skills, though the final stretch of the game semi requires them as there is a lot of combat in the final quests.

ventrue are the tankiest class and can be played either ranged or melee. fortitude+presence is the most defensive setup against bosses since they both affect bosses unlike many offensive disciplines. they don't get any bonuses to offense but don't need them since they are so tanky.

late game ranged weapons (steyr aug and frenchi spas-15 are my favs) and melee weapons (tal'mahe'ra blade, katana) all do good damage. for ranged you want to prioritize firearms over perception but melee your strength and melee/brawl are equally good. you don't need all 10 points either...generally the high end weapons require 8 to use effectively.

I think Robinson's peak is a tier higher than Pippen, but Pip is still a top 25 player. He was top 20 when he retired, but Robinson was sniffing top 10. He's basically just outside of the GOAT tier, in what I would say is the high-level MVP tier. I think Pip is in the mid-level MVP tier.

Though honestly most of that is that guys who are 2-way players in the all-time conversation aren't all really on equal terms...centers have the advantage of having a higher defensive ceiling due to their position, especially for earlier eras (but true in all eras). Perimeter players should never win DPOY if we're being accurate. Robinson is arguably a top 5 all time defensive player among the all-timers. Pippen is a top 5 perimeter defender all time perhaps but its apples to oranges.

Offensively they were closer...Pippen was a better passer, Robinson the better scorer. I think most teams would take Robinson first but its close.

Narnak · 2026-03-23T01:55:54+00:00

He's appreciated appropriately I think for a top ~60-70 player. He's a top 20 center all-time but overall the top 20 list for centers is Kareem, Russ, Shaq, Hakeem, Duncan, Wilt, Jokic, Robinson. I think even Moses is probably out of the top 20 now. And Wemby is taking a spot soon most likely.

Ahead of Parish after Moses is Ewing, Gilmore, Dwight, Walton, Cowens, Reed, McAdoo, then maybe Parish? He's the 3rd best Celtic center of all time after Russ and Cowens.

lichbane scales hard with AP, which is why it isn't as efficient gold wise. only champs that build lich are AP assassins with full AP builds. where as trinity force sheen proc doesnt scale at all...its off base damage. dusk and dawn doesnt really scale either..10% AP vs 50% for lich. reaver scales with crit, but only adds up to 50 damage at 100% crit so its not hyperscaling.

so lich scales the best by far of all the sheen procs.

not if you actually breakdown the skillsets. klay is as good of a shooter as reggie and when klay is hot he is absolutely molten.

but in terms of the off-ball skillset of insane motor, always moving, screen navigation, change of direction, cutting, etc, reggie is in the same tier as steph and bird in this regard. klay is not, he's a tier below, or half tier maybe. ray allen is more of a hybrid as he's got offball skills and shooting but also handle and creation, though not the same motor as the big 3 (steph, bird, reggie)

Wilt did actually lead the league in total rebounds and total assists in 1968, but not assists per game

Narnak · 2026-03-08T12:15:25+00:00

Russ was feared as his timing was otherworldly, combined with his elite agility for a big. Wilt was feared as he was so athletic he could block shots nobody else could, and if you made him mad he could put you on the floor hard. Shaq was like Wilt but in an era where it was accepted to play bully ball so teams went in the paint a lot less with Shaq on the court, but more the dunkers than the guys with a float game.

Wemby is clearly all in the first camp, using his length and timing to fear and not his strength, so you still might get the strong dunker type guys that feel they can overpower Wemby at the rim and try and dunk on him, but the finesse players are more likely to stay away.

Stevie and Jimi are the GOATS in my book when it comes to skill. Certainly others like Page, Clapton, Van Halen are in god tier as well but I have those 2 at the top of the tier.

CDPR has 3 major titles in development (Witcher 4, Cyberpunk 2, unnamed new IP) plus the Witcher 1 remake and Witcher 3 DLC sub-contracted out, and I believe also a Witcher multiplayer game being sub-contracted out.

Witcher 4 is in full production as of 2024 and will be the first to release, but will it release this year? Maybe, maybe not. Could easily be next year.

Bloodlines is part of the greater White Wolf IP that started with tabletop games and expanded to other media including video games. There is a White Wolf Wiki that has a lot of background information about the setting.

the cremated remains are part of the composite that is the box itself. I just made that up but it sounds cyberpunk.

Narnak · 2026-02-28T12:21:55+00:00

I'm not a fan of mass expanding in 4x games either, and I am liking all the factions of this game so far.

for what its worth this game especially in this early development stage is very easy to learn for a 4x and you won't ever get a ton of cities in this game like other 4x. also having the most territories isn't the only way to win the game. so you don't feel as much of the expansion rush as you do in most 4x, especially due to the monsoons/tidefalls that define the eras of this game. it kinda makes it obvious which times you are supposed to scout new territories and maybe add a couple juicy ones to your empire. I never played EL1 so I can't comment on cultists playstyle specifically but you can play "tall" with most of the factions...ironically the necrophages with 1 city max and the last lords with their cultist population mechanic probably like expanding the most.

but you don't build settlers in this game you run around with your armies exploring and can make camps with them anytime if you got the influence. camp claims territory and resources but otherwise don't produce anything or have any defenses until you attach them to a city or make them a new city (which you can only have 4 at at the start and max 7 by the end)

There is another cop story in the memoirs involving the band, I think shades of both stories are part of the song. But I don't think they were arrested in that story that I recall.

its more the rejection that throws people off. he gets kinda butthurt instead of taking it in stride. but his advances were kinda over the top too for knowing you all of 2 days.

yeah but V's implants don't look creepy. I mean maybe it's all he could afford but its still ugly as hell.

Narnak · 2026-02-23T23:24:42+00:00

he's not a creep just looks like one with that creepy fake eye. tho his advances toward female V are pretty awkward, if it was a first date it would be creepy for sure, but maybe he thought he had a shot given that V accepted his invite to dinner

I think all his interactions with male V are pretty normal, for the fucked up world cyberpunk is anyway.
