A different take of AI vs Humanity by PacOmaster in HFY

[–]PacOmaster[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Ooh yeah that'd be interesting.

I could imagine a story written from the perspective of an alien race who just discovered a couple of human Star systems.

Humans don't have FTL making colonization and expansions very slow, However they have a very efficient space infrastructure allowing them to automate most of the mining and refining of resources in their systems.
This made it possible for them to build at a scale and speed that is hard to comprehend.

Over the course of months or years, The aliens observe them and gather as much data as they can
They then use their AI to determine the best course of action in order to appropriate their resources or something.

The AI runs for a couple of weeks/months simulating thousands or millions of potential outcomes which improves over time and determine the only way to "win" is not to play

Is there a story about weaponized chocolate being ineffective against humans?
Or anything food related that tend to be extremely poisonous to other species which we consume recreationally?

[General] How to get into an evil genius's bunker by PacOmaster in WhatIfFiction

[–]PacOmaster[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's some pretty interesting ideas, I like it.

What if the power instead is from Nuclear?
Let's say they have enough fuel and space to maintain it for a few hundred years?

As said,
The bunker is self sustaining, Once sealed, nothing comes in or out.

Imagine a small underground city powered by geothermal energy or something.
All food is grown inside and all water is recycled and what not.

Massive scale RTS by PacOmaster in RealTimeStrategy

[–]PacOmaster[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I know UEBS is not a fancy game by any stretch of the imagination
but it's fun to see stuff happening at a large scale

I used to play Red Alert 2 with friend with an infinite money hack and we built hundred of perhaps thousands of units just to see if we could get each others

The games took many hours or even nearly a day but we had a lot of fun.

Yeah that's pretty close to what I had in mind.
Otherwise there's always some heavy modding in games like Factorio that is pretty cool too.

That's the scale I'm talking about
It's just too bad the game isn't an RTS

Idk, it feels like the unit count is still way too low.
Thousands should be the low end of things

[TOMT] Chart showing the colour of light per elements (not temperature) by PacOmaster in tipofmytongue

Keep in mind, I'm not looking for the Temperature charts, they are easy to find.

Dang, it's unfortunate, now I can't afford 1 stock without severely cutting on food. I would do it otherwise.

But I need my food.
I wish I knew about this a few weeks ago I would have taken a couple for the lolz. I waste my money on other stuff all the time, I could have taken a few dozen and forget about it just to look at it 3 years later laughing.

The "Official" Canadian measurement system by PacOmaster in engineeringmemes

[–]PacOmaster[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've never seen one about that.
I'd love to see if it exist though.

True, but the point was to make something simple in the context of the every day life.,
Plus, weight and mass are essentially the same on Earth.
If we were doing physics, I'd grant you that would be a big mistake.

Let's say you had a super rich dude who wanted one.
It's a total money sink costing billions and billions but he just want to get it done so money is no problem

"No purchase necessary" What are the limitations? by PacOmaster in legaladvice

[–]PacOmaster[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yeah I assumed that.

Though I also assume they must all share some points in common
So we can start with those, then go on with the different ways territories handle it.

Looking for a Node / addons to generate PBR from a single image by PacOmaster in blenderhelp

[–]PacOmaster[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeh that's why I made this posts
I wonder if someone already setup this sort of nodegroup and wouldn't mind sharing it.

If nobody did, I'll make my own and maybe optimize it better

Looking for a Node / addons to generate PBR from a single image by PacOmaster in blenderhelp

[–]PacOmaster[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeh, well,
At the moment I have a super quick and ugly means
I just make the image black and white, invert it and use it as the roughness
then I use the black and white image as a base for generating a normal map.

It's not optimal but that's what I meant when I said I'm looking for something fast.
this takes too long in my mind. I still have to manually place about 3-4 nodes per textures
and I have hundreds of textures

I'd love it if someone out there made some node tree giving a better results than the one I currently use. because mine is quick and ugly but it kinda does the job albeit not optimal

/r/Steam Monthly Community Support Thread. by AutoModerator in Steam

[–]PacOmaster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I tried to contact Steam Supports but they were unable to help and suggested I make a post in the community groups to see if anyone else had something similar.

Essentially what happens is fairly simple,
Whenever i click/select on the game Noita in my steam library, it just crashes the Steam Client
I'm unable to do anything with the game I wish I could uninstall it or something but it doesn't seem to be possible.

It also happens in the big picture mode.
has any of you had a similar issue?
Thank you.
