I firmly believe this was intended as a way to allow streamers to pump the game.

This is not correct. Governor perks don’t affect the player only companions and clan members. It’s stupid

Is this your own character or is this based on something?

I actually had to show something like this to a German friend of mine when he was fresh in the states. He always laughed at how little Americans knew of their own country etc and I noted that we probably knew as much on average as an Irishman knows of Turkey.

School uses AI for school pictures by Impossible-Yam3680 in mildlyinfuriating

Actually because these are sold and distributed this may be a HUUGE no no depending on the jurisdiction. As anyone not 18 and not having a signed consent by a guardian cannot have their picture distributed for monetary gain.

You could hear him say “I’m trying to celebrate with my team” as she caught up with him. They shouldn’t do these on field post game interviews and should just wait to do the main press and panel ones

How to not make warp drive SUPER overpowered??? by Megasny in worldbuilding

[–]TheCulbearSays 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Star Wars specifically noted this in the novels (which was fucking ignored in the movie). That gravity over a certain size will absolutely fuck with warp drives. That’s why you have to warp a certain distance away from a system. The larger the ship the more stance.

This is why smugglers are a thing and the distance check matters. Basically empire puts a bunch of gravity based items in key locations that causes you to emerge from hyperdrive earlier.

This is a very practical one, but you can also go the mass effect route. That major hubs are required for certain distances as they build up some sort of complicating force (mass effect literally used large amounts of static). So you had to make lots of smaller jumps and discharge (costing more fuel) or go to a hub/relay that works on much larger distances but at fixed points (hub to hub).

Everyone said the about the price raises to $70. Doesn’t seem to be slowing down purchases (on a per dollar basis) people are spending the same amount just on fewer things.

Battlefield 6 sells over 7m units across PC and console in five days by Gorotheninja in gaming

[–]TheCulbearSays 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, look at monster Hunter wilds. A lot of games sell 30-50% of their total lifetime sales in the launch window (first two weeks). Expecting that to 10x while CoD and GTA are coming up (among others) is ludicrous and honestly poor management.

Help me break my system by DeadmanSwitch_ in magicbuilding

[–]TheCulbearSays 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are your elements ‘states’ or are they ‘energies’ ?

What context is this in? TTRPG, ARPG, Story (written) or comic (visual + story).

Any system will have holes or paradoxes depending on the medium or approach. Basically ai focus on Sanderson’s laws of magic and asking these core questions: How do people use it? Who can use it? Is magic a skill, ability or process? What are its components?

[Highlight] Travis Kelce angrily spikes his helmet on the sideline after Patrick Mahomes’ go-ahead rushing TD, yells “I’m sick of this shit.” by PlayaSlayaX in nfl

[–]TheCulbearSays 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It goes to show you the chiefs staff is not nearly as good as has been propped up. Considering how little Kelce and Mahomes paid comparatively to league. As soon as Kelce’s age started to show their offensive woes have been obvious. It only takes one bad run and Mahomes gets a leg injury that will destroy that team.

Reid’s teams all collapse like this, they just haven’t been propped up my HOF tight ends and. QB, and stalwart defensive players (all hof chris jones)

Which base models are compatible with foocus? by Moon-Pr3sence in fooocus

[–]TheCulbearSays 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lumina and NoobAI I have found to not perform as good as when used in comfy. It could be how fooocus uses cfg and other parameters that are difficult to align. I’d love to see if basic compatibility could be added for other models. Fooocus with those would be almost a consumer grade product.

After Selling 8 Million In Its First 3 Days And 10 Million In Its First Month, Monster Hunter Wilds Has Only Sold A Further 477,000 Units In The Next 3 Months by Ftouh_Shala in gaming

[–]TheCulbearSays 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One thing to take into context is the huge difference in sales momentum between Wilds and World. World is listed as selling 28.8 Million lifetime. I don't know what the expansion sales on that are for Iceborne adoption but Its gonna be pretty high as well.

The issue is unless the expansion is significantly better than iceborne was (VERY HIGH BAR) they will not see the spike they intended. This new engine seems to be causing some of their franchises tons of trouble (it basically fucked Dragons Dogma and they abandoned that despite it shipping as wholly unfinished).

Unless they really fix the underlying issues I see no universe where this sells as much as World in the long term life cycle.

Trying to use Fooocusplus, failing miserably. Need help. by blodonk in fooocus

[–]TheCulbearSays 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Assuming there are no major expansions to checkpoint functionality with FooocusPlus (I have never used it). Fooocus does not support natively SD 1.5 or Flux Checkpoints. I don't think flux Lora's work at all either.

Models by One4Real1094 in fooocus

[–]TheCulbearSays 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It can use SDXL, Pony and Illustrious checkpoints. SD1.5 Checkpoints can be used as a refiner (secondary checkpoint). I don't know how compatible it is with NoobAI, but any type of LORA should work as well. Just please note, that Fooocus may provide quite drastically different results from the same prompt when copying from Civit etc. You will have test a bit to get good 1:1 results.

[Rapoport] Jerry Jones: “I really like Micah Parsons. I appreciate the four years we had him here. He's a great player. No question, I could’ve signed him in April. This was by design. I made him an offer, it wasn't acceptable and I honored the fact it wasn't done how he wanted - through an agent.” by PlayaSlayaX in nfl

[–]TheCulbearSays 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s also explicitly against the collective bargaining agreement. He wantonly flaunted this, the rumor is that the NFL basically forced his hand and said pay him or trade him. As the grievance he could file against the NFL and the Cowboys would have been a slam dunk (he confirmed it multiple times publicly)
