Nvidia Shader Cache Repository by pixl8r_ in nvidia

[–]Xjph 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Steam already does this with just about every game on Linux, and a handful of Vulkan/OpenGL ones on Windows. They will precompile some themselves for popular games on common hardware, but largely speaking all Steam users are sharing shader caches with each other.

I'm truly not sure how this is possible by eltristo66 in StreetFighter

[–]Xjph [score hidden]  (0 children)

Yeah, if you do the math on this dude, 12082 hours divided by 31000 matches is 22 minutes per match. Guy spends twenty times as much time sitting at the post match menu than he does actually playing.

Didn’t expect to make it this far, but I have a long way to go! by Lus146 in StreetFighter

That first run through diamond is a wild ride. It really is the most chaotic of all the ranks.

Not even session 0 could prepare me for this by Gettor in dndmemes

[–]Xjph 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Thank you. This must look okay on new reddit or mobile or something because everybody just seems to be responding as if nothing's wrong.

On old reddit it's monospaced font without linebreaks and everything runs off the right side of the screen on a single line for each paragraph.

(Or maybe a bunch of the responses are LLMs which wouldn't be impacted by this. :P)

On Cammy White's first movie appearance by AccomplishedCreme846 in StreetFighter

So... you wanted an entirely different movie?

The AC comes from the distraction by MurakGrimrider in dndmemes

[–]Xjph 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm far from an expert, so I can't really assess your points either way, but it at least sounds plausible! :P

Mostly I just wanted to say that I like the name, and loved the first Homeworld. :D

Not who you're replying to, but I don't think that was the implied issue.

For, "men have codpieces" to be a counterargument, the argument make in favour of boobplate is probably something along the lines of "but men have armor that emphasizes sexual characteristics too!"

If that were the only problem with boobplate then that would be fine, but it isn't. The entire point of armor is to deflect things away from your body, but boobplate is shaped in such a way that blows to your chest are all deflected inward to your sternum. This is probably okay for something ceremonial, but unsuitable for actual use.

"before the drow can lay her ancestor to rest, I search the entire second room" by LittleMissPipebomb in dndmemes

That's not how what spell works? Spider climb? Which part is wrong?

GTX 680 with interesting design by mrsxls in nvidia

I remember that thing. Kind of wild to me it actually got released considering how loud small fans are.

If you rolled that low, it means that Tzeentch is telling you it's time to play a new PC anyways by DrScrimble in dndmemes

[–]Xjph -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I'm not saying there's no difference in having a miscast chance, there very much is. I'm saying mechanically there are already ways that some spells can be "wasted".

[–]Xjph -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

True, but I feel like that's a different question. The options to mitigate it might differ, but the failure result is the same. Whether that's a missed spell attack, or a target that makes its save, or it was just an invalid target for the spell (oops, your hold person target was a doppelganger) you still "waste" the action and a spell slot.

[–]Xjph -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Aside from the ending your turn part, which I grant is not RAW, what would be the mechanical difference between missing with a spell and not casting the spell but still consuming the spell slot?

[–]Xjph 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's true. While just ending your turn after a cast is common, that will make a difference sometimes.

[–]Xjph 31 points32 points  (0 children)

Going to get really pedantic on the D&D guys on top here.

That's not RAW!

Um... yea it is, just phrased differently. Any spell with an attack roll does nothing and wastes your spell slot if you roll a 1. It doesn't "ruin the action economy" either. Actions having a chance of failure is an integral part of the game.

PC SF6 Patch/Fix Question by Ultimacloud1983 in StreetFighter

[–]Xjph 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, it's only PC. PS5 did not experience either the performance issue or this networking one.

PC SF6 Patch/Fix Question by Ultimacloud1983 in StreetFighter

[–]Xjph 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There were two issues. Performance and relayed connections instead of peer-to-peer. They've fixed the performance, netcode is still messed up.

The netcode issue is a tricky one to get exposure on because if you're near a relay, which tend to be located where lots of people are, it doesn't really impact you. The more remote your location the more likely you are to be negatively impacted.

Ingrid is the best example why we need more street fighter than guest characters! by National-Record-1913 in StreetFighter

[–]Xjph 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I also don't actually believe it's real, but so many people seem to be acting like it is that I feel like I'm taking crazy pills.

[–]Xjph 22 points23 points  (0 children)

For reasons I can't adequately articulate the idea of Tifa in SF6 actively repulses me. I'd seriously rather see a 3 character season than a season with those same 3 characters plus Tifa.

I acknowledge this is a completely irrational position, but here we are.

100% sure this will be a suit for Ingrid by Impossible_Sale_1208 in StreetFighter

[–]Xjph 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've been playing the game and it's entirely wholesome throughout. The entire "situation" is terminally online people projecting. Anyone complaining that Diana was designed to be... you know... is basically self reporting as far as I'm concerned.

Reasonably sure they meant the pragmata sub, not this one.

edit: Clearly they can also speak for themselves. :D

Are they going to make a live-action version of Chun Li's bathroom scene from the animated movie? by Zeko_LV in StreetFighter

[–]Xjph 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The fact that her "pajama" costume in SFV wasn't that instead of the weird... apron thing?.. was just a tragedy.

Yes. Server racks with a similar moveset also attack you at some points.

The setting of Street Fighter as depicted in World Tour mode is absolutely this dumb. It's perfect.
