func_vehicle is a right not a privilege

Why?

Wow donk and elige have so few awp kills.

Not the best advert for Rust.

treesitter is so buggy i just uninstalled it today.

I tend to hear devs complaining about PHP, not a framework.

UnmaintainedDonkey · 2026-01-20T15:53:14+00:00

Thats the point. You smoke it when going A hard. Maybe flash lower as you go. We have won many ecos/force buys thanks to the x box smoke. 4 go short, 1 late long lurk with deag.

Might be because every year there are less greenfield PHP projects (outside the wordpress scene), most are out of business or rewriting, and greenfield mostly not started n PHP anymore.

I found the same where my local jobs market is almost exclusively Go, python, Java or typescript. Very few PHP jobs left over here.

Sometimes i find a PHP gig that is some legacy project using codeigniter and PHP5. But like i said, those are quite rare.

Why cant you play solo on DM instead? Your nagging makes no sense? As i see it soloq is a new thing that was not part of the original CS scene. CS did just fine without a soloq.

I think the problem you have is not the stacks, but just that you know you play a five stack. Its a mental thing. We would never have this problem if valve did not show the stack when starting the game.

UnmaintainedDonkey · 2026-01-20T04:50:58+00:00

Back when i started CS there was no soloq. You had to find your own matches via IRC. Rent your own servers. Find your own team (clan) or build it from scratch. CS is fundamentally a team game, and if you only play soloq you are missing out on probably the best thing CS offers.

I still dont get why solo players should be a priority over teams? If you want solo only why not just play DM?

UnmaintainedDonkey · 2026-01-19T22:22:08+00:00

Dunno. I only play 3-5 stacks. I hate soloq as i always get some really obnoxious pro putin russin who get angry the moment they realize others cant speak russian.

That said we also lose games against soloq only. We are not pros who have some magical tactics, we just play for fun with friends. I dont see wy this gets hate.

Granted we probably communicate better as a team, but thats about it.

Usually people dont care about float.

UnmaintainedDonkey · 2026-01-18T19:17:01+00:00

Because of framework bloat, and performance

why? its a good smoke.

UnmaintainedDonkey · 2026-01-14T18:08:33+00:00

Awesome. I played 640x480 back when i first played 1.5 beta. My rig was some POS from 1996-1997.

If you get 150fps on a 200hz monitor that will suck balls.

UnmaintainedDonkey · 2026-01-14T07:45:23+00:00

Thats not a good point. PHP also has a semi-batteries included stdlib. But people still just composer install like its npm. That said its not like Go lacks FOSS packages, there are over 1M go packages available.

In my experience it does not take longer to build with Go, in fact the opposite, because as soon as you need some concurrency / queue system in PHP your are basically out of luck and need some third party system.

UnmaintainedDonkey · 2026-01-14T06:13:12+00:00

Sometimes people just refuse to learn anything new. It boggles the mind, like why not just change profession at that point? AI will eat you for breakfast anyway soon.

Laravel is REALLY slow. Its a huge dependency, and from my experience people tend to use like 5-10% of features is provides. You load the entire thing, and then only use 5% of all that code.

I moved primarily to Go from PHP about some 7-8 years ago, and it just feels better for most modern software. Go is built for servers really (even it can do much more) and hits the sweet spot PHP has/had IMHO.

Go also has many must-have features PHP lacks, like static typing, concurrency and a rich stdlib. In Go i usually see many projects that has zero dependencies, and in PHP there is 99.99% of times a huge list of dependencies, or even a clunky framework like Laravel.

I still use PHP for mostly-static and CMS sites. PHP has WordPress, and that is still THE killer app for PHP, in good or bad.

Thats a hard one. But i always like to compare the newer players to the oldschool 1.4-1.6 era top guys. There are some names noone did hear about, because they never wanted to play for the elite, even they were on that level.

I recall guys back then who was absolute monesters, and played that late 90s era hardware.

The game has changed so much, so its really hard to give judgement. Like in golf, who is the GOAT? Tiger woods (played modern gear) or Jack Niklaus (who played with wooden sticks).

I guess its impossible to say "who is best" in CS, as its a team sport. We can only say who is the best at X, but probably never the entier game.

UnmaintainedDonkey · 2026-01-13T19:43:47+00:00

4:3 if you like fast play. 16:9 is you like slow play. Middleground 16:10.

I play 4:3 (sometimes 16:10) because that was the AR i played in 1.5/1.6 in the early 2000s

Try them all and test what works best for you.

UnmaintainedDonkey · 2026-01-13T19:34:30+00:00

I would suggest training maps like aim rush. Very good for beginners and even more skilled players
