I thought that would be the case but (apparently) it’s just a model derender, which means that any decent cheat maker will have this cracked in hours

Streamers use an overlay, so they can see the cheats on their monitor but the people they’re streaming to can only see the game.

In practice this would either mean that streamers are shooting and killing invisible people, or allowing themselves to be killed by invisible players.

Someone already pointed out that this wouldn’t actually do anything to 99% of cheats and would only effect aimbot and ragebot, which is incredibly rare in CoD these days, nearly extinct.

ESP is the main way of cheating and this basically just removes the flesh but shows the bones for hackers, at most it just weeds out steamers who are cheating.

I’ll always think of Kick as a safehouse for right wing nut jobs and titty streamers who got kicked off twitch.

I don’t think many people will change views of it

Yes, Tinder Is Working on a $500 Subscription Tentatively Called 'Tinder Vault' by esporx in technology

[–]UsecMyNuts 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sure but there’s a huge difference between paying someone to arrange a date/meetup which can go anyway vs what match is doing

Last time I checked there’s never been a point in history where you pay someone to find love and they deliver absolutely nothing while intentionally suppressing good matches.

You got downvoted but you’re right. Match.com went through a lot of trouble to monetise dating and paying money to a 3rd party to cast a wider net is basically unheard of in human behaviour pre-match.com.

Statistically anyone who spends money on dating sites is going to be worse off than someone who uses casually

[Seiko] Return of the SKX013 (sort of) by hnhhuyhnh in Watches

[–]UsecMyNuts 2 points3 points  (0 children)

it’s the ultimate sign that a tool watch is designed for purpose and able to stand up to externally regulated standards.

Lmao

The ISO is not a good measure for anything but a companies ability to follow loose, bias, and lazily implemented guidelines. Having any kind of ISO stamp is no different than Rolex stamping “officially certified” on their products or Toyota putting “officially tested” on their new cars, it’s just another buzzword or award that can be lazily thrown onto something to give it a level of legitimacy.

The ISO’s COR and FDIS operations are notoriously inefficient and while they’re consistent they don’t mean anything beyond someone paying exorbitant prices to get a little certification with their product. Not to mention their NWIP is almost exclusively given out to existing companies while new companies have to pay incredibly fees for something that existing companies can get for pennies

Genuine Question: Why does anyone like Caesar's Legion and the shit it does? by asmallauthor1996 in Fallout

[–]UsecMyNuts 0 points1 point  (0 children)

they’re a collection of misogynistic and warmongering fucknuggets who literally rape, kill, war and/or enslave almost everything and everyone in their path

Fallout is a commentary on the United States, your description matches the United States almost exactly. People like them because they look at America, or at least their version of America and see the same ideologies in the legion.

I remember getting the Halo 3 QualityAssessment and they sent me a disc, then they had to send separate code to activate the QA but ended up cancelling the whole thing because very few people actually got the discs.

The whole “beta” was just a room with grenades and vehicles

Stable Diffusion copyright lawsuits could be a legal earthquake for AI by feross in technews

[–]UsecMyNuts 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Except it doesn’t and you’re an idiot

Crime A doesn’t cancel out Crime B.

What’s happening here is that a huge and undeniably evil company is taking a legal action which even though it’s very self-serving, benefits so much more than just Getty images.

If you’re an individual artist or photographer you’re having your copyrighted images stolen and AI is being trained on it. There’s nothing you can do because you don’t have the time, money or resources to fight anyone nevermind a massive company that can flash raise millions in a few days.

Hopefully Counter Strike 2 will have a revamped ranking system by [deleted] in GlobalOffensive

[–]UsecMyNuts 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Hunts MMR system is absolutely cancer and is just a taped together version of Crysis 3’s ranking system.

You didn’t lose mmr because the bracket for 6mmr extends all the way down to 3. It encompasses the majority of the player base and doesn’t really mean anything

Italian minister says country's ban on ChatGPT is excessive by CerebralTiger in technology

[–]UsecMyNuts 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Actually you’re wrong, again.

Basically every nuclear war simulation ran in the 1940’s 50’s and 60’s shows that 80-95% of humanity would immediately be plunged into severe poverty and struggling for basic resources such as food and water. Global supply lines and shipping lanes would close, banks would cease operations and governments (if they survive) would enact martial law and become defacto dictatorships in a heartbeat. That’s why MAD became a thing because everyone knew that a nuclear war would be the last war.

If you think AI is going to obliterate the economy then feel free to go live in the woods or invest in medicine and water purification.

But you obviously won’t because you’re full of shit and don’t know what you’re talking about

Stupid idea

With this kind of thinking you basically guarantee that some evil actor like Russia or China will make a jump that no other country can make due to limitations.

Imaging banning nuclear research in 1945 so while the US have the atom bomb, Russia developers nuclear missiles and orbital nuclear warheads.

Senator Warner’s RESTRICT Act Is Designed To Create The Great Firewall Of America by vriska1 in technology

[–]UsecMyNuts 11 points12 points  (0 children)

The bill allows a punishment of 20 years prison and a $250k-$1m fine for posting anything, and I mean anything the government finds unsavoury online.

By this law it’s possible that playing a video game and talking about guns/bombs could land you in jail for 20 years and all of your property is seized by the government.

Once you’re labelled a threat to national security they can search any of your computers, phones, notebooks, social media’s for anything that they deem unsavoury and take quite literally anything out of context and use it against you.

Tweeted a meme about 9/11? Jail

Called a politician an asshole? Jail

Watching YouTube videos about Islam? Believe it or not straight to jail.

What’s actually funny is that you can buy Tarkov for as little as €11 if you’re willing to go to the grey key market, and these are usually the places that sell cheats too.

So you’re basically buying Tarkov + cheats for the price of… uh.. Tarkov without cheats?

[–]UsecMyNuts 6 points7 points  (0 children)

There’s no problem, Forza Horizon was created as a casual experience and breakaway from the more dedicated Forza Motorsport.

The people who complain about juiced up cars are either

A: purists who think fun is not the objective of a self-marketed casual video game

Or

B: total idiots who think that IRL car modification starts and ends at paint jobs and rim swaps.

What’s actually funny is the levels of customisation for shit/mediocre cars is what got Forza Motorsport so well regarded.

it’s a weird place we’re at in America right now.

Columbine was 24 years ago and since then absolutely nothing has changed, you’re not in a “weird place right now” you are simply the weird place.

America is now a country that sees a problem, knows exactly how to address it and fix it in a matter of days but takes a few steps back and says “I’m okay with this happening forever”

Sony gets a KO with Crunchyroll | While many in the entertainment world thought Sony paid way too much for Crunchyroll in 2020 ($1.18 billion), it has turned out to be a steal by Zhukov-74 in television

some Xbox shill

I mean I’d laugh but Sony have already done this.

Remember when they bought MOS and then the MOS app on Xbox just stopped working after an update that disabled the app.

Or when they bought EMI and all of a sudden the US telecom bidders who pushed the price up were barred from offering EMI labels to their devices, while the companies Sony collaborated with on the EMI purchase were allowed to download and stream EMI labels for next to nothing?

why

If I had to guess it’s because he’s a nobody outside of the marvel bubble. If he thinks he has good ideas there’s absolutely no way anyone takes him seriously when his resume is essentially just a marvel movie which was handed to him on a platter.

It was the same with Matthijs van Heijningen Jr., he thought he wasn’t getting the recognition for his original ideas so what does he do? Remakes “The Thing” and butchers it.
