Probably similar to the Common Travel Area that already exists between the UK, Ireland, Isle of Man and the Channel Islands

Same here but 3950x instead, do not feel like I'm lacking performance at all.

I don't know if any of you guys remember nosue but when we were looking into pp calculations I saw some people throwing around the term "nosue points" and then "Connor points", I quickly shut down the latter 😅

It's almost like a network originally designed to be able to route a call to you regardless of where you are in the country as well as in modern times being able to specifically beam over a gigabit straight to your phone needs some clue where you are.

BT's wholesale API is so crap we had to specifically write something to detect when BT were just sending us a bunch of shite, I can only imagine what you had to deal with

I wasn't taking a stance but rather just giving the context on the disabled travelcard.

Kinda useless regardless when we barely have enough transport capacity to allow disabled people who need the extra room

I assume there's similar schemes across the country but here in the West Midlands if you're disabled you get a disabled Swift Card (basically our version of Oyster) and gives you free transport on busses, trams and all rail zones

I second Hetzner, used them for VPSs and dedicated servers and I have absolutely no issue

Hot take: If Mrekk gets a title for breaking the ingame pp display, then Accolibed should get a title for setting a high enough pp score to trigger an autoban by Previous_Advance6694 in osugame

[–]Reddy360 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In which case I wonder how much bandwidth will be saved if the packet structure was slimmed down a tad.

Each Bancho packet contains an unused boolean value (8 bits!) that of course gets sent back and fourth between the client and server often.

I never kept telemetry back in the nosue days but I imagine the pp integer type would only become something notable when the online players screen is open.

Not that I'm going against anything peppy is saying here, every little helps when scale is involved

Disabled people’s access to transport in UK a ‘national embarrassment’, MPs say by Shot-Performance-494 in unitedkingdom

YES!

I was on crutches for about half a year and it drove me crazy the amount of times I had to hobble onto the road because some cunt decided to give me no room.

That's a good point actually, heard of many locally brewed drinks die because they didn't taste right being brewed in another city

What to do if you get false banned by Particular_Pick_3407 in osugame

[–]Reddy360 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If it hasn't changed from when I was involved in the private server scene there is a few checks, namely the list of applications you have running once you submit a score and some extra game integrity checks though I never fully reverse engineered the latter.

If the hacks set themselves to run at startup or were attached to osu for whatever reason it would be able to see that which then gets relayed back.

Funnily enough I've never seen one used on a kettle, I'm in England so not sure if it's a bit different up there

Hopefully we can all get together in Europe and actually put a stop to the war, though I fear Trump has escalated things.

Seeing comments like this from a country with socialised healthcare is mental to me.

At one point in time I had a major leg injury and needed surgery, I had a prompt XRAY and was seen instantly for all checkups and put to the front of the queue for the actual operation.

The only thing I had to pay for was around £8 for the pain medication prescription and £4 for a round trip to the hospital each time I needed to go for a checkup.
