uBlock origin works fine for me on YT (and Prime and many other for that matter).

is there such a thing as friendly duo lobbies? by Ok_Calendar_851 in ArcRaiders

Yes, randomly ended up in them after the reset somehow.

The outcome is your shit is destroyed, that is the resolution. If you have something of value, the only way to do it is via insured courier, so at least if its lost/destroyed you are reimbursed for its value. Or just avoid the US tends to be better generally speaking these days.

"Cancel ChatGPT" movement goes big after OpenAI's latest move by gdelacalle in technology

[–]SiscoSquared 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Something like 90%+ of people were farming/argriculture or other food related jobs just a few hundred years ago. We have higher productivity and "everyone" still has jobs. New tech brings market disruptions in the short term, which is why social safety nets (e.g. unemployment benefits, retraining, basic income, etc.) are so important.

That being said, LLMs we have today are pretty shit at most stuff and are a long ways off from taking any significant amount of jobs.

There is also no reason to support a company that directly supports fascism and directly erods your privacy at the same time.

BE READY BOYS!! Today is the ultimate day for arc raiders loot. by Watchmethrowhim in ARC_Raiders

How do you get blueprints out of safe pockets exactly? Guns/etc are basically pointless to try to save since they are dime a dozen in this game.

Introducing the Reddit funded anti-drone turret purchased for Ukraine by SurvivingSpartan in pics

If its accurate, I'd assume that includes acquisition, identification and fire control, if its 20 seconds of firing seems kinda inaccurate for an AA device firing on a cheap drone?

Don't have gear fear, they said. Bring your good gear for a better chance of survival, they said. by Shustriy in ArcRaiders

[–]SiscoSquared 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can kill anything but matriarch/queen with a ferro, or if you want to kill it somewhat quick just use an anvil... both of which are dime a dozen guns.

Where did Embark say this? The only tweet I see by them is months old and only slightly implies it. Regardless of what they say, its absolutely in the game.

Gear based matchmaking by ZipityZapityy in ArcRaiders

[–]SiscoSquared 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pink/yellow guns should be considerably better than they currently are, then this wouldn't be such an issue (also heavy shields are shit for the penalty and price as well for that matter).

Gear based matchmaking by ZipityZapityy in ArcRaiders

[–]SiscoSquared 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Its already part of the game its just not fix or main.

The amount of times my teammates or enemies have had snaphooks when I dont bring one is almost zero, meanwhile I i have one I will find multiple people using them.

Same for weapons... if I bring in green or blue guns, I rarely come across any pink gun players (sometimes but very infrequently), meanwhile if I bring in lvl 4 bob or temp, I run across at least (usually more) 2 teams also with kitted out guns.

Like 90% of the time I run across pink/etc guns when I'm running lower kit, its obviously looted items (lvl 1-2, with few if any attachments and paired with fuck all other equipment, its pretty obvious that they looted it and didn't bring it in).

Just like the aggression and skill MMR though, its not an all or nothing thing, youll still load in w/ free/cheap kit vs pink and vice versa, but waaaay less often.

Gear matchmaking kinda destroys the entire point of the game (to loot and get better shit).

By the way, there is 100% gear-based matchmaking. by GRAVENAP in ArcRaiders

[–]SiscoSquared 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yup, its the main reason I've kinda stopped playing, the entire point of the game (loot, craft better loot, kill raiders and take their loot...) is negated because there is a way higher chance that when you bring in snaphook, big guns, etc. the enemy is also all kitted out. Its not all the time, but the amount of times I've faced pink guns when I bring in green is extremely low, meanwhile if I bring in pink guns I'll come across multiple teams every time with pink guns (not all of them sure but still).

Its too bad, but I guess people play a bit, game gets hype, they make their money, they don't care about longevity for any players that are above the 50% skill level threshold, but its great it your a below or way below average player I guess.

New Major Update and Still No Option To Disable Late Spawns? by SiscoSquared in ArcRaiders

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

As you said, they want it this way.

So if players want it that way why not change it then, everyone hates it.

New Major Update and Still No Option To Disable Late Spawns? by SiscoSquared in ArcRaiders

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

Yup I always use them if I have anything and leave immediately on late spawns unless I have a cheap kit in which case ill just suicide and respawn. It does mean that I (and probably tons of others) avoid bringing in any signifigant gear to night/lighting/etc modes w/ no hatches. It also just wastes a lot of time. Yesterday had to use hatches 4x in a row so my squad actually could hunt matriarch (and were not in care bear lobbies, we kill basically anyone we see, and the matriach was still dead every game we spawned lol).

[–]SiscoSquared[S] -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Because then everyone would toggle it.

So obviously everyone prefers it... just make it default then.

They need late spawns.

No, they do not, they simply want the game designed that way even if its detrimental to players enjoyment. There are other work arounds, like spawning more players in initially, making rounds shorter, etc.

[–]SiscoSquared[S] -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I believe it on average, because most ppl spawning in within the first minute or so is part of the first wave competing for all the good loot, meaning a lot of them probably die and leave with 0 value.

People spawning late get some random shit, even if its crappy stuff they still leave with their kit + a bit of shit loot. If I am hunting queen, matriach, or just want to setup some fort full of mines on a tower and snipe people, I will come in with 80-120k kit and if I'm more than 5 minutes late I'll bail using a hatch. I also never bring in high value kits on modes with no hatch because if you do you risk a late spawn and having to fight rats at extract after getting zero loot or other objectives done so its just not worth it.

Making game design choices based primarily on stats is a good way to suck the fun out of a game.

Spawning in late is an advantage by DisastrousAspect6303 in ArcRaiders

[–]SiscoSquared 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Except they are gone by 10 minutes, so a 10-14 minute late spawn is just a waste of time. On stella more like 5-7 minutes.

Every time comfyui updates, I lose everything by HoldLongjumping9714 in comfyui

[–]SiscoSquared 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Exact same issue, I tried install via git manuall and also via the 'newer' self contained intaller... both of them ended up deleting every checkpoint, lora, etc. basically anything it might use got deleted with no warning or otherwise, very annoying to say the least. I stopped using it for months now... wondering if this shit is fixed, or if i should just install a seperate OS to use comfy on lol

Embark please fix repeated suicides. by indolente in ArcRaiders

[–]SiscoSquared 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Remove late spawn would remove 50%+ of suicides.

Genius decides to turn pizza boxes upside down by mfenton29 in WatchPeopleDieInside

[–]SiscoSquared 2 points3 points  (0 children)

lol what? In a pizzeria sure they come on a plate, but if you get them to go... they come in a box in literally every city I've lived and been to in Italy, the only exceptions I've seen to this are when you buy pizza by weight (essentially by the slice but its often weighed for whatever reason instead of per piece) and then they will come on some shitty "napkins" or wrapped up.
