Uhh, Star Trek vs The Expanse?
It's like, entirely different vibe. If using LOTR as an analogy, it's less Peter Jackson's changes and more "it's just Game of Thrones with LOTR title card"
cough Pokémon trading cards cough
Pre-Craig bond is gadgets, shootouts and chases, Craig bond is sweaty hand to hand combat, and literal cock'n'ball torture.
A ".* (disambiguation)" page on Wikipedia could probably vaporize him instantly
Professional jargon is in no way unique to the compootah peeple though
Was out getting groceries when I came across this post If anyone recently seen a guy fall on his knees in a Walmart parking lot, that probably was me
Your chances are 50-50, you either get rejected, or you don't.
Today in "Weirdos on social media posting ragebait, then getting mad when people react":
My favourite pattern matching fact that's not immediately obvious, is that infallible bindings like arguments in function argent lists and plain `let` are also patterns.
At least I've certainly seen people like that over on Reddit and Discord
I think there's a weirdly large group of people who pick an online identity of "rustacean" without ever writing a single line of Rust.
Which requirements did minijinja (from the same author as the original Python Jinja) fail?
rust isnt special. you know what else is memory safe. a beautiful forest stream

But most of those libraries in the top 16 ARE performance sensitive low level libraries the rest of the ecosystem builds on top of. Hashbrown crate literally has the standard library as a dependent.
If you want to attack JS, you can just point at the fact that it has null and undefined, and laugh. You don't have to invent alternative facts about the benefits of Rust.

I guess kinda on purely visual level, it's a rat-creature riding on a large guy?
That character is neither a roadhog nor junkrat. It neither spams aoe explosions, nor has a hook.
Comparing deadlock to overwatch does a disservice to how cool deadlock's movement is. Every character is a doomfist-lucio-sojourn combo as a base. There are slides, double jumps, wall jumps, dashes and dash-jumps, and you can chain all of it together to absolutely fly across the map
Ugh, bsky is so good at indicating that there's more alt text to scroll through. I thought you just accidentally half of it Yes, I was suggesting that you probably hit the ceiling. BTW it's really easy to check these days, steam overlay got an option to show CPU and GPU utilization
You don't mention what the old CPU was, but you probably switched bottlenecks now, and are now GPU limited.
This is your divine punishment for choosing to play hostage extraction gamemode
Saudi sportswashing championship doing it's best to attract auditories most susceptible to brainwashing
I love Counter-Strike. I really hate the fellow players though.
But also, you can parkour and do cool looking shmovement melee, i've seen some really cool looking clips of pretty much speedrunning combat encounters, Neon White style www.youtube.com/watch?v=O1tI...
Playing Cyberpunk on release at barely 25 fps was an experience. Effectively the only way to do damage with performance that bad was to sit in cover and hack enemies through a camera.
It's not a moba, it's a third person shmoovement shooter... with moba economy and item shops on top.
Uh, I might be misremembering, but isn't that reading of AT fields literally, black on white, written in the text of Evangelion?
Either I'm missing the point, or is @hankgreen.bsky.social 's bean app just an idle game with all the usual microtransaction stuff to skip the "gameplay"? Like, the bean counted having phone in hand, scrolling bsky as "focusing"? I expected it to use accelerometer to scold me for picking up phone
If you're looking at it from the heights of an ivory tower, maybe? I'm pretty sure majority of "popular" languages don't have a native first class documentation system. I can't really think of any besides Rust and Python that do.
Idk, letting Falcons win sounds like he's in on e-sportswashing... smh
Something something when the game got an actual artstyle instead of realismslop
It's gotten to the point where hear "ai generated" as an insult in couter-strike.
idgaf if you play CS1 or CS2, but you absolutely MUST play CS 1.6
Inserting fl0m into this list is a hell of a curveball
You only know three people born after 1997? Wild.
I'm personally seeing issues right now with steam CDN, and with some sites using Cloudflare DDOS protection.
music kit wen??
Any coupleslop recommendations?
idk, looks like a feature to me!
Let me guess, the way to achieve such a feat is to never play a single match of Counter-Strike in the first place?
Oh, it's the disallowed_* lint group doc.rust-lang.org/clippy/lint_... Ngl this was really hard to google using queries like "clippy forbid method after:2023".
Am I losing my mind? I was sure Clippy had something to forbid usage of a certain method/type at configuration level, without custom lints, but I can't for the life of me find it now???
They are reusing events now. smh
Taking the joke seriously, COunter-Strike doesnt fit the pattern, as it was just CS, a two letter acronym, at it's inception as a Half-Life mod.
I don't think there's much point in critiquing AI and AI safety, when the entire tech industry is run by professional bullshitters with ties to ultra right-wing billionaires.
Godsent shuffle went badly for everyone involved to be fair. And then the rest of Swedish scene seemingly followed the spiral down the shitter.
Didn't he have a wrist injury he never fully recovered from? Not unlike Guardian
And here I thought the only thing GCs were afraid of was circular references
But then I gotta use reddit! . . . Who am I kidding, I already use reddit daily
"Shareware" is just "free, but closed source". It does not imply that there's a "fuller" paid version, nor even that there's a mildly annoying prompt you can pay to remove, winrar style.
What I find particularly funny, is that even simple black on white text still has that signature AI yellow tint
It's been years since Valve made CSGO free to play, but I still have to do a double take when I see "f2p" and "counter-strike" in one sentence
Hah, from a 2002 paper by @rzubek.bsky.social: they point out FPS bots only focus on moving/aiming/shooting, but a big part of players' experience is the multiplayer/social side. So they develop a bot to participate in social aspects of Counter-Strike, called tt14m (trash-talking 14-year-old moron).
wtf we got Ex Machina -likes now? I mean, I'm all for it
Ngl hard to imagine what more could i get from an interview if I've already watched this 4 hour long monstrosity www.youtube.com/live/CoFugFY...
Even if you for some reason fine with the government spying on everyone, surely you'd rather that database not exist at all, least malicious hackers get their hands on it
First of all, your residential connection doesn't even have a stable address, we're still at least a decade away from full ipv6 adoption. Secondly, do you really want everything you post online to be easily trackable back to you?
Going purely off screenshots, I feel that the soft, diffuse pink sunset lighting is not meshing well with the skyscraper rooftop setting. And also while scrolling past I at first thought this was a screenshot of cs_italy, also because of the lighting.
Saying TF2 is objectively more fun than CS2 is certainly a take. If your definition of fun is "being able to rocket jump" I'd agree, but that's about the only thing TF2 got over CS2.

just straight faxx with this one
It doesn't fucking matter if donk is better individually, as long as he stays on Spirit.
gg ez C9 got Stewie, then got smashed by LG, which started a wave of Brazilian teams entering T1 competition. One of which was the short lived Immortals squad, cause uhh, missing a map cause you've been partying, and then making death threats on twitter is not conductive to a long career.
Current CS2 encourages gambling exactly as much as CSGO did as far back as 2015. It's the everything around that's gotten more shameless. I don't recall every single team and tournament having multiple gambling sponsors back in 2016.
Just got a post-install/first-login "let's finish setting up your microsoft account" popup on a windows 10 install that's like 5 years old. Man, if not for one invasive anticheat, I'd never boot into this pile of garbage
never click a kick dot com link
I can't imagine how puritanical weirdos could possibly pressure a visa/mastercard duopoly, so it feels like they are all to happy to give in
Yeah, many such cases
Why do payment processors even care about what people buy through them? It's not like YouTube caring about not hosting porn next to advertisers which still doesn't make much sense, because lots of said ads are for borderline porn gooner gacha and fetish dating apps
No, it's a tool that automatically cranks saturation when you open a game, and turns it down when you alt-tab out or close it.
It's been fixed for a few years, but for most of CSGO's lifespan it was actually faster to quickswitch to knife and back to deagle, than to wait for natural recoil reset.
Noobs been posting clips like this for a decade. First shot is aimed to the left of T's head, you then adjust, but shoot way too fast. Deagle has a really long accuracy reset between shots, it's actually longer than the recoil animation, not that you wait for the animation to settle either.
Long live vibrancegui.com I've been using it to make multiplayer FPS games look deepfried for nearly a decade
Nuh-uh. Which is also pretty shitty given they literally put "QMK/VIA" in the product name.
And also their layout configurator tool fucking sucks. I'd rather just edit a json, and hey, you can back up your layout as a json... except it has some sort of a checksum in it, and if you edit it, the tool tells you to piss off.
So I guess you should not buy Keychron keyboards? It's only been a year, and it's like, highkey kinda totally unusable for gaming by now because of shoddy de-bouncing. Still feels pretty great for typing, if I increase de-bouncing timer, but that makes it worse for gaming.
semi-related: I'm fairly certain I created my son's entire worldview back in 2012 when he wanted some cereal with Lightning McQueen on it and I asked "why do you think they put a cartoon character you like on it? is it because the cereal tastes good?" and he became instantly jaded forever.
The only motivation I've ever needed to keep playing CS is the desire to dunk on enemies. No amount of progression systems will ever feel better than getting good at clicking heads
The funniest part is that it hasn't even been changed very much at all since csgo

I got that right just on the basis of the last time Red Reserve was relevant very definitely being before Optic buying into the scene
I've played a match with three transwomen no more than three hours ago
giving a socially maladjusted 19 year old a $500 a year is not that good for the 19 year old.
And it's also super fucked up that the athletes who do "make" it in popular sports make absolute bank, while people below them, or people in sports that get less viewership get comparative scraps. Not even at the level of economic equality, but uh
But then, the reason we think that it's bad for uninformed kids to make career decisions, is because we put so much focus into, well, having a career. Which is fucked up? Like, to the point where people some would call a person unemployable for not having work experience at 25.
marxism-luigism
I think that all professional [e]sports are very bad actually. Just on the basis of the path to the top starting in your childhood. Just think about. Do you think a 6 or 7 year old can make informed decisions about their career? No, obviously so.
yeey! pure luck on the last three though
but I, for one, am glad I don't have to keep all those maps I never ever load up on my drive.
They did not fully delete it, you can install it right now, and you can host your own server for it. It is definitely a better 5v5 competitive game, if only because of the CSGO's god awful smokes being gone. If you were a fan of Danger Zone, you have a point
I think people that want constant content updates should generally go scroll yt shorts, tiktok, and ig reels on three phones at the same time instead of ruining the industry. The so called "live service" model is an abomination, and you are the reason it exists.
CSGO is still available to install from steam btw, it's just hidden in under a "beta" branch. There are no official servers, of course.
No you fucking don't
It's actually way less of a gambling simulator than most multiplayer games these days.
Official servers are long down, and there are not a lot of community servers left.
What a surprise, I have no clue about the period between 2019 and 2025, almost as if I stopped playing and following the scene for a while
