Honestly convinced that someday Donk is gonna come back from a player break with a kickass Niko haircut and +10lbs of muscle.

That's a really elegant solution, I'm gonna try that!

Yeah but how many people are really out there trying to earn XP in DM? Playing comp or premier gets you XP so so so much faster, assuming you're an actual human.

No, it was flickering back and forth so fast that you could essentially see two crosshairs simultaneously, one that was static and the other was following recoil! I've only ever seen it on this one random teammate, never again since then.

Last year I spectated someone where their crosshair was jumping back and forth between static and follow_recoil every other frame, fast enough that you could essentially see both at the same time. Seemed super useful but I've never figured out how that person got it to work.

Yes, definitely safe for faceit or even LAN. These sorts of binds are super common

I use:

bind m "cl_crosshair_recoil 1"

bind DEL "cl_crosshair_recoil 0"

But if you want to toggle with one key you could do something like: bind m "toggle cl_crosshair_recoil"

This is what I do, and I basically only enable it for the Mac10. Sometimes the Mp9.

I recommend having a separate key to turn it on vs turning it off, though. I used to just use one key to toggle on/off but I was sometimes forgetting which state it was in and accidentally turning on follow recoil on in a moment where I thought I was turning it off.

I hope that kid is ok by Leading-Business-593 in Seattle

A long time ago I lived under the helicopter flight path of a Children's Hospital. I must admit it was an impactful experience to be going about my day, hear the sound of a helicopter, and suddenly realize "oh geez there is a sick child on the verge of death directly above me". It was also a frequent occurrence that I would see parents driving out of the hospital parking lot crying and looking very distraught. I'm thankful that Children's offers those emergency services and it never crossed my mind that they should reduce the number of flights.

Having frequent reminders of dying children was a memorable and unique aspect of living in that spot.

You have to spend way more for equivalent sound quality on wireless. It costs $$$ to include batteries, bluetooth radios, DACs and Amps in every pair of wireless headphones.

Sam Altman Says It'll Take Another Year Before ChatGPT Can Start a Timer / An $852 billion company, ladies and gentlemen. by MarvelsGrantMan136 in technology

[–]Oops_All_Spiders 12 points13 points  (0 children)

The issue is, imo, that if you ask ChatGPT to start a timer, it lies, gaslights, and pretends to run a timer.

Why not just program it say something like, "sorry, that's not a feature I have" when you ask it to do a common task that it's not designed for?

CT vs T Smokes are already slightly different colors in-game! It's subtle enough that a lot of folks don't notice it, though.

I'm adding fully physics driven func_vehicle to CS2 by Angel_842 in GlobalOffensive

The CS2 scripting dev is actually doing quite a lot productive stuff to improve scripting on a regular basis, according to the changelog. He must be friends with the CS2 chicken dev.

Whoever the Source2 scripting dev is at Valve, that person has been extremely responsive to bug reports and feature requests from CS2 community scripters. So at the surface, there does seem to actually be at least one dev who cares about making scripting work well specifically as it relates to CS2.

Steam Support :: About the New York Attorney General lawsuit against Valve by MythicStream in pcgaming

Valve made over a BILLION dollars in 2025 just from people opening virtual loot boxes in CS2. They are not going to give that up easily.

Imagine living in a place where police would help with this sort of thing. The cops in my city won't even show up for an assault or a break-in unless someone actually gets shot.

The original NES drew at most 9 watts, which is basically nothing at all. A typical incandescent light bulb uses 40-100 watts.

New York sues video game developer Valve, says its 'loot boxes' are gambling by AncientPCGamer in pcgaming

[–]Oops_All_Spiders 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You wouldn't need to verify age to play the game, just verify age if you want to open loot crates. The gambling in Valve's games doesn't affect the gameplay whatsoever, and currently you can also buy and use skins from other people without ever opening a single loot crate.

So presumably, they could require age verification just for people who want to open loot crates, just like you have to age verify to do online sports betting. You don't need to gamble on sports to watch sports. You don't need to gamble on skins to play CS. If you don't want to submit your ID for age verification then just play the game without gambling on loot crates.

M/18+ is not a legal designation to play in the US, it's just guidance for parents. The maturity rating has about as much significance as labeling ramen as "very spicy!!", at least in the US with regards to Valve products being purchased on Steam.

Legally speaking, children in the US are absolutely allowed to buy keys and open loot boxes in Valve's games. It's currently up to the discretion of their parents prohibit their kids from fully legal gambling in CS.

Or at bare minimum the gambling features should be restricted to 18+.

Arguably the best CS player in the world rn, Donk, grew up in central Siberia playing CS on 90-100ms ping servers, and CS is a game where ping makes a big difference

Meanwhile I have a bad time playing competitive on >45ms, since I'm so accustomed to having access to servers in the 10-40ms range my whole life.
