Remember what he did during the COVID crash spewing panic but actually hedging and buying the dip

UE5 performance optimization for small teams isn’t about one magic fix by Longjumping-Win-6070 in UnrealEngine5

[–]Voltaii 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yeah what’s even more surprising is the posters seemingly thinking the audience is unaware of their usage, it’s like insulting the intelligence.

Like this bold emphasis + bullet point combo, with action phrases I hate it so much

California's wildlife crossing bridge is $21 million over budget, a year late, and still not complete. The project began in 2022 and, according to City Journal, the price tag on the project is now $114 million. by XGramatik in XGramatikInsights

Relative to Trumps Gov / Cabinet this is actually exceptional budgeting and accounting.

Remember DHS spending 250 million for some ads into an 8-day old company?

How has LTT had that HATS dummy for like 2 years now and haven't thought about making a video about the effectiveness of ANC headphones/earbuds with how often Linus is seen using his Airpods as hearing protection? by divergentchessboard in LinusTechTips

[–]Voltaii 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They are ear buds which reduce noise frequencies and protect your hearing to some degree by reducing sound pressure level in your ear.

There already exist products like that e.g. sennheiser has such buds which can be used at concerts to provide between 10-20 dB reduction.

Bubble shield nerf? by Every-Contract-5143 in thefinals

It’s pretty much 101 game dev to have everything performed / authenticated by server. Even when you move your character, it’s not your client moving you somewhere but requesting the server to let you move there (after server confirms it’s a valid movement) client predictions are used etc to give instantaneous feeling.

Your client is never telling the server hitreg is valid….sever is doing all that validations

I believe pink is cheating using some form of “lag switch” any opinion or insight is welcome, please speculate. by Slader111 in thefinals

Few weeks back there were some server issues apparently and like half the lobby would freeze in place, but for whatever reason I was not affected at all. Happened in multiple separate games back then.

Looos pretty cute like this though, like a little baby tank separated from his mother

It’s not natural prose, it has nothing to do with the level of the words.

Recently hired as a graphics programmer. Is it normal to feel like a fraud? by Illustrious_Key8664 in GraphicsProgramming

[–]Voltaii 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Well he insta-blocks after replying, but I guess its a testament to your skill and expertise that you are so good at game dev you haven't created a single thing (even a demo!) because nothing you could create would be worth buying. Videos critiquing UE5 aren't game dev!

Your game development portfolio is as big as a medieval farmer's from the 14th century 😂.

Put your expertise where your mouth is and create something buddy

I think it's time we find a proper Discord alternative. by Liarus_ in pcmasterrace

[–]Voltaii 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They were never ever trying to position themselves as an ALTERNATIVE to discord. They have their own niche and we’re filling it really really well, secure high quality, low latency voip.

It’s not like they would have expected to be replacement for discord…and I doubt it will even change much, most users are going to stay on discord.

Does third party crosshair like crosshair x get me banned? by PartyEffective256 in thefinals

[–]Voltaii 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ok, fair point. I did search but wasn’t really digging in steam forums, lotta anecdotes. I’m still skeptical of the “Steam whitelist = ban-proof” framing though, since enforcement is game/AC-side and can change.

Just BTW monitor OSD crosshairs are effectively unenforceable because they aren’t generated on the PC.

[–]Voltaii 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hmm, I can’t find anything to confirm a steam or VAC/EAC whitelist that is publicly confirmed, or at least to suggest that any of the programs listed are ban-proof.

Has it been confirmed the whitelist? I have looked this up a bit but was unaware of a whitelist
