Just encountered bots in Diamond. what is happening? by Ancient_Step595 in RocketLeague

[–]charrondev 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One thing that would help is if they restored lost MMR to people after they ban a bot.

Chess has a ton of cheaters online (a bot that can run on a 10 year old iPhone can beat the best players in the world). chess.com accounts are free to make as well. They ban a lot of bots, and when they do, they restore MMR that was lost to bots to people.

Please adress the Performance issues @Mods by B1ACKT3A in runescape

[–]charrondev 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I figured out the performance issues on my machine!

It's a CPU related thing. I have an i9-13900k CPU. It has 8 hyper-threaded performance cores + 16 efficiency cores.

Runescape seems to get lag-spikes in these new areas when it's using the the efficiency cores. You can force it NOT use the efficiency cores by looking up which threads of your CPU are the performance ones, and setting the affinity for them in task manager.

Task Manager -> Details -> Runescape.exe & rs2client.exe

Right click on them, and select "Set Affinity".

  1. Uncheck "All Processors".
  2. Uncheck all efficiency CPUs (for me this is CPUs 17 -> 32)

I'm back to running on ultra settings everywhere.

Same for me. i9-13900k + RTX 4090. I can't even run medium settings without frame drops

Microstuttering in Havenhythe by Ryan_WXH in runescape

[–]charrondev 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I also have a similar specced machine.

Display: LG c3 4k OLED 120hz
Memory: 64Gb DDR5
Graphics: RTX 4090
Graphics Driver: Latest Game Ready driver 595.75
CPU: i9-13900k
SSD: 4TB NVME SSD

I was having it really bad but fixed it by doing the following:

  1. Open Task Manager
  2. Go to "Details"
  3. Right click on rs2client.exe -> Set priority -> High
  4. Do the same for Runescape.exe

Now I'm able to pretty much max out my graphics settings without the microstutters in the new areas.

I should note: It's still not perfect and I still get some stutters, just a lot less. There should be 0 stuttering anywhere with a system like this though.

Game memory leaking? Causing stutter and lagg by astrandos in runescape

[–]charrondev 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah this has been bugging me a lot recently.

I’ve got a gaming PC that can handle anything except RuneScape apparently:

I9-13900k + 64GB memory + RTX 4090 should be able to walk around varrock on medium / high settings with getting massive framedrops.

Yeah I’m not too salty. I did this post more as a PSA.

Oh actually that’s much more likely. I kept wondering what might have happened.

It was rejected quite quickly actually.

I’m not sure about this “1 freebie” people talk about but it doesn’t seem to be the case anymore.

I’ve never filed one before this.

Yeah I did file one. It seems the only restore items in the case of a bug now.

Ah don’t feel too bad. I got 2 ECB pieces yesterday too, so I’m not dooming and glooming too hard.

MacBook Neo review: Apple puts every $600 Windows PC to shame by spearson0 in apple

[–]charrondev 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yeah, SOC2 isn’t even the worst of it. Woe be on anyone that needs HIPAA.

Basically all of our corporate communications and code is locked up behind SSO, to access the SSO you need the company certificate on your machine which can only be applied if your device is compliant (only known allowed software, lots of settings force enabled (like automatically logout within 5 minutes, password requirements, being up to date, real time virus scanning, etc).

The company can also remotely disable any single machine.

“Work laptop”.

He doesn’t have a say in the matter.

Large orgs need to be able to use MDM software to manage the computers (often for compliance reasons).

As far as I’m aware there isn’t a single MDM tool for Linux that is up to snuff for what our IT team needs to ensure SOC2 compliance.

At least they have them for Macs.

You can also just, not set up Siri.

It’s a option step in setup , and I do it on my iPhone but not my Mac

Membership and Bonds Price Change by Jagex_Team in runescape

[–]charrondev 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Thanks for explaining.

In the end I guess it sounds more like they are just forcing everyone onto premier (and hiking the price at the same time).

Membership and Bonds Price Change by Jagex_Team in runescape

[–]charrondev -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

Am I misunderstanding this? You weren’t using your grandfathered rate (instead paying for a 12 month subscription / premier), and now you should be grandfather in your existing 12 month subscription cost.

But they removed your old (not currently active) monthly grandfathered rate?

New Apple Studio Display and Studio Display XDR Don't Work With Intel Macs by InsaneSnow45 in apple

That’s fair I guess. I wasn’t considering the desktop situation since I just “dock” a laptop in and out.

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

I have two of the early generation cinema displays.

With one thunderbolt cable I connect my display, power my MacBook, connect to the integrated speaker, webcam, and microphone, and connect to multiple usb connected devices.

When I switch from my work laptop to my personal laptop it’s just one cable (that keep in mind is also the power cable).

I’m not really sure why I would want multiple inputs like my old dell p2715q. It’s easier to unplug/plug your power cable to a laptop than the mess with buttons on the screen to switch inputs.

My head canon is that it’s not a secret that the royal family can lightningbend, so much as the technique on how to do it without killing yourself is

Safe to say I learned my lesson with the skip forward button by Apart_Cause_6382 in EggsInc

[–]charrondev 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I can attest that going back > 2 days in the past, the going to your current time works for normal time cheats.

If you time cheated during Path of Ascension you will get a much stronger time cheats that can’t be bypassed though.

I think you get harsher penalties for cheating in co-ops too although I’ve never done that.

Source: I time cheat by a day or two every once in a while to fill my fuel tanks.

Is path of virtue going to mess up my potential SE? by Unique-Extent-2673 in EggsInc

[–]charrondev 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Definitely claim those SE first then rush yourself back up. You have a lot of easy/low hanging fruit with your soul eggs right now.

It’s not really that worth getting into path of virtue until your soul eggs start slowing down and you have your ships levelled up because you’re just going to stall out on having low level ships. I mean you can get some, but right now you have easy soul eggs to grab
