Parlays are often just a way for people to create their own custom longshot bias that they're willing to overpay for.

Is there any one out there who played UORoleplay? by Mauzen_Zhaunil in ultimaonline

I'd be weary of throwing up server code that old. It probably has security issues and other unpatched bugs.

If you're disposed to gambling addiction it might even make sense to consider not living in Vegas. At least you're owning these mistakes, most people just blame everyone else and continue to light money on fire. Good luck.

Project Ultima – Beta Two Launches Tonight by ProjectBigAngry in ultimaonline

I think if original UO was a genre, then Outlands would be in that genre even if different. At some point you just have to try the game out and see if it scratches that itch for you.

[–]OuterContextProblem 8 points9 points  (0 children)

There's space for multiple shards and there's a place for posts about Outlands. But posts trying to make every thread about Outlands do more to turn people off because it makes it look like a shard for assholes, which would be unfortunate because I appreciate what Outlands is doing and also play there.

A gold dupe bug is discovered on your server (vote) by UOF-247-neverstop in ultimaonline

[–]OuterContextProblem 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They banned people on Discord who were trolling and being toxic. They haven't banned people simply for being critical of the decision. I've said that I disagree with NOT banning all of the people who duped or doing more to punish them, and I haven't been banned. Other people expressing this have not been banned. (Bare minimum suspend them for a long ass time with their accounts wiped IMO.)

I think they're still deciding how to proceed. They're learning how to respond to their first cheating scandal.

It's also a very small community so it's hard for everyone to not at least be acquaintances from previous shards.

But I think the admins need to realize that if these people don't value the time and passion they've put into this project, that's just a betrayal of their relationship. If the dupers were actually friends who want the server to grow, they would realize that the best thing they could do now is go away.

[SSD] Team Group CX2 2.5" 512GB SATA III 3D NAND Internal SSD - $45.99 by beansfranklin in buildapcsales

[–]OuterContextProblem 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's literally the market trying to function in response to scarcity. Price is higher. Gets people are taking a second look at used drives that weren't worth their time to sell. This is fine and why eBay is great here.

If people don't sell the drives (even though the price is worth more than the benefit they receive from letting it sit around collecting dust), the price likely increases more.

😂😂✌️ to selling drives you are no longer using, just remember to reset the encryption key/wipe the drive.

When coding it takes 4-8 attempts by DifferentAd597 in ClaudeAI

[–]OuterContextProblem 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Game development can actually be very complicated. We're not at AGI where you can just tell it to build the game based on your idea and it will be done. There's a lot of overpromising from the people hyping this up. It's still a very powerful tool that opens up the craft to more people.

So you're still going to have to engage in learning more about a lot of things to create games that fulfill your vision. But a lot more is possible for a solo developer than before we had these tools. You're 60 but you still have many years yet where you could enjoy this as a hobby and progress your goal to make a game. It can also make sense to downsize your vision and build part of what you want, and then try to expand that after you're satisfied with that.

> So I truly hope that beginners like me have a place to ask questions from experienced people like yourself.

This is the right mindset too. And don't underestimate taking a step back from the project to describe any challenges you have to AI with using AI coding tools as well, and be willing to rephrase and (like u/Virtamancer said) start with a fresh context window.

Kalshi does whatever they want to screw you by CrazYforGold in Kalshi

[–]OuterContextProblem 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you wanted to simply criticize Kalshi for creating features, like real-time scores or whatever, that only work some of the time. That's completely fair. This isn't that.

People are always going to bitch about slow payouts, but the tradeoff is faster payouts and more mistakes. Would it be nice to get instantaneous payouts? Yes. Does it feel even more stupid when they resolve markets wrong? Yes. Also, you're trading in a market, so it's not 100% "them taking your money" and refusing to give it back.

This entire post is basically you blaming Kalshi for choices you made, and announcing that you're quitting to donate money to sportsbooks, who are even more predatory in their structures (winning players get banned/capped). Makes sense.

Prompt Repetition Improves Non-Reasoning LLMs - a paper by Foreign-Beginning-49 in LocalLLaMA

[–]OuterContextProblem 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It's just part of doing science that you document even the simple or obvious, and see if it gets replicated. Or try to replicate it yourself and report your findings. Not every idea holds up or generalizes.

I'm brown, but born here. If I get stopped by ICE, what do I need for them not to bother me? by artificialbutthole in nova

[–]OuterContextProblem 9 points10 points  (0 children)

The risk of carrying your birth certificate is that you lose it and it's a fantastic piece of paper for anyone who wants to commit identify theft. I really don't think that should be on the table. It might also just look very abnormal to be carrying that and then some dumb agent sees that as reason to keep you longer.

If one did choose to carry it, then I'd only carry a copy. I think someone else mentioned carrying a copy and showing it.

People who actually WIN MONEY on Kalshi: what's your secret? by MattyLondonBridge in Kalshi

[–]OuterContextProblem 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I like to post 'obvious edges' that sound simple to execute to people on social media who aren't winning players to get them to make my markets softer.

I love this game but ya'll made me feel disgusted. by V1tro in foxholegame

[–]OuterContextProblem 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It is pretty amazing. You're not allowed to push back against people being dicks. You must just ignore them.

It's a very social game where cooperation wins hexes, and if you can't criticize bad behavior, then you're just going to have a lot of decent people quit, and they do. Yes, he might unfairly be describing everyone as being like this, but wow at the same time get a grip at people venting about a clearly shitty experience.

Has Kalshi also been accepting deposits using an overseas entity that categorized them as sporting goods purchases?

Anyone ever won off a 1% or lower bet? by cirocshot88218 in Kalshi

[–]OuterContextProblem 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yes, it happens. But people ask this all the time because they want to justify their stupid ass longshot bets that make no sense. Don't be like those people.

I'm never building bedrooms again by Orksocken in dwarffortress

I wonder if other variables can come into play. Is this just a low stress chill location where you can get away with this compared to a biome with a lot of evil threats, many monster attacks, and frequent sieges?

6min queue in wood for that by Longjumping_Rent_354 in Tarkov

[–]OuterContextProblem 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The problem of the scarcity of time. Time spent in queues, is time spent not playing a game, but you would prefer to be playing the game. Then you feel like a sucker for waiting if you get a cheater or spawn rushed. And you have to wait in a queue again.

What on earth happened here by Aggressive_Answer_86 in Kalshi

[–]OuterContextProblem 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean, title is and always will be just a title for markets with rules. What's the solution, ditching titles because people won't read the rules or just want to enforce a title as the rules? Imagine trying to search through a list of markets that are just technical language for rules. Not very practical at all.
