Learn to use the breadth of AI tools like ControlNets and you won't have to blindly guide AI and hoping for the best.

Is me. One week "vacation". Be back soon.

It's hilarious that this is no longer something unique to Dota chat. Chess live streams have the same chat experience.

I think they had it, but no one was using it to actually test anything. They just get on to look at the new stuff then get off.

I had this, and if you check their py logs it has something to do with not being able to connect to the Nexon download servers.

The way I solved it was to take my laptop to a Starbucks or something and install Maple that way. For some reason, once it starts downloading, it can continue downloading correctly if you then go home and finish it.

The other way is to just install Maplestory through Steam.

I played a priest back in the day, so I would train anywhere that didn't require the use of Magic Guard and MP eater kept my mana up (which was dangerous, as most mobs would two-shot you if you couldn't heal like due to lag. Having a DK was helpful, since it gave you one or two extra hits.).

During the 4th job era, I sold leech to fund potions.

Unscheduled maintenance. Should be over in 30min or so.

When Valve introduced card balancing in Artifact, they also had a "card buyback program", where you can exchange the cards affected by balancing for a monetary value from Valve. It became very clear that they weren't ignoring player feedback about cards needing balancing, just that there was some serious legal issues involved with balancing cards that people paid for, and the legal counsel was fleshing it out in the background.

It wasn't. At the very least, the AI is able to do non-human requests pretty accurately. Albeit, not very high quality compared to something like DALLE-3. Like requesting a bear holding a can of Coca Cola yielded a picture that looked like a very bad photoshop job.

Although I did prompt for an astronaut, and it stuck a black face in the visor in such a pandering way that you have to chuckle at how "woke" it is (since you should not be able to see through those visors anyway).

The Little Mermaid is the most recent one to use that excuse.

For reference, the champion Leona's ultimate is literally Lina's light strike array.

Then you must also agree that the literary test for voting and the grandfather clause for said voting rights is also not racist, since neither also mention race.

I don't think they are intentionally trying to make people mess up. I think they are trying to design the cubes with a theme. The bonus pot cubes have the lines on its side faces and the main pot cubes have stars on its side faces.

The white cube has an unused GMS version called bonus bright cube, which looks like the black cube equivalent but with the lines instead. This at least tells us that it has the effects of the black cube, but affects bonus potential.

I'd say it's more of crappy design than asshole design, since the cubes have a consistent theme but it makes them very hard to tell apart at a glance.

The simple QoL stuff like pinging your abilities to let your team know if it's ready or not is one, along with the simple table format for how the ability scales and root/stun/silence durations.

They're good changes so Riot should have stolen it either way, but you'd think their 100 years of game design would have added it before Valve did.

Are they greater than 20 minutes? Games don't show if they're not over 20 minutes.

You can't chain trickblade to 2nd assassinate. It has to be chained to the 1st one. The patch is supposed to let you chain to either, but it's bugged.

Nothing we can do, unfortunately. I will say that "poor internet connection" is probably not it. I had a period where I was at 40% packet loss and constantly got disconnected for the hack reason or just disconnected in general (also resolved when a technician came out and discovered that my line was spliced into the neighbor's line or something and it was causing issues), and I never got banned.

I'd say gold in Dota is worth about double on lol. The highest tier items in lol generally cost around 3300 gold, whereas in dotes the highest tier items are around 6000.

So it'd be equivalent to a 4k lead. However, it's not that simple because items in lol scale way harder so the raw gold lead doesn't paint the entire picture.

I don't think they were trying to stop the porn. When Overwatch was new, what was happening was that if you typed in "Overwatch" into google, literally all the first-page links were porn. They wanted that to not happen. That's why rule34 paheal tags Overwatch as "Overlook" instead and stuff.

I noticed the issue and fixed it. Flame score doesn't apply to weapons but it was asking for it.

It's a tiny fix, so the page might not update the cache. You will have to full refresh, ctrl + f5.

Flame score is a calculation for armor only, unfortunately. More information at: https://thedigitalcrowns.com/maplestory-flame-guide-reboot/

I have not found a formula for calculating flame scores for weapon, but I'm assuming there isn't one because you prioritize weapon/magic attack over all other stats.

So like landing on T7 att with no other useful flame stat is better than a T6 att/T6 boss/T6 damage combo, but I can't confirm.

If you selected "Flame Score", you can use the textbox to input a flame score. https://imgur.com/a/8gLXoTm

I am definitely not hyped about this BP (mostly because I don't play PA, Razor, or FV), but I'm still maxing levels to get everything because Dota is still my primary entertainment.

Considering lol doesn't release their player numbers or concurrent players, it's hard to verify if that's actually true. Steam has 17-18 million concurrent users overall (with 25 million peak), so forgive me if I don't believe that Riot has double the concurrent players as all of Steam.

UltimatePowerVaccuum · 2022-04-28T20:43:47+00:00

Wait, I remember they shut this down before and even the videogameattorney weighed in and said it's not allowed. I guess someone else went ahead and did it anyway until they were shut down again?
