Basically a bunch of players are dropped into a game map, and normally your objective is to go around and collect as much loot as possible, then after some time or you’re ready to leave, you need to find the extraction point - this will save your loot and that run is over.
Some extraction shooters are PvE, and some are PvP, some are both. If you get killed with all your loot before you get to the extraction point you lose it all. It can be pretty stressful, and unbalanced if its PvP where some players play much more then you do therefore have better weapons etc

I think it might be real. I agree that the lighting makes it look fake, I thought so too. But after looking at the lettering there are slight imperfections in some letters that would make sense if written by a marker. But I’m not the best judge of these things, my initial thought was fake/ai as well.

- Comment on XMPP servers / cokmunities? 2 weeks ago:
Lots there to take a look at. I’ll definitely be setting up unit tests to test out multiple servers for sure.
- Comment on XMPP servers / cokmunities? 2 weeks ago:
Thats great, thanks. By the sounds of it I can probably continue with developed, I just need to find where people are going and what servers have the biggest population.
Thanks again!
- Comment on XMPP servers / cokmunities? 2 weeks ago:
Thanks, is there any indication on the number of daily users for some of those servers? Some of the IRC indexes would have usage graphs to get an idea of how popular it was.
- Comment on XMPP servers / cokmunities? 2 weeks ago:
Awesom, thanks for that. I’ll do some digging to see how widely used it is. Cheers

Could only watch the first 10-15 mins, they’ve definitely upped the production value. I reckon I’ll have to buy some merch from them to support them because this is good shit and want to see more.

I was going to get some links for you, but conveniently The Register already did that for me:
- Comment on Plex got hacked. 1 month ago:
This isn’t the first time they’ve been breached, there was an incident in 2015 and 2022 as well. From what I can gather its the same info being gathered each time.
There might be others but I can’t find th at the moment.

No stress, just making sure there wasn’t some other reason for it. Cheers

I’ve been using LibreWolf for a while now, and just started using IronFox today. I’m super grateful those forks exist that allow use to turn that shit off.

Had a look at that, sounds pretty cool. Curious to know why you linked to a fork that is out of date and not to the original at github.com/BassT23/Proxmox

Cheers I’ll check out Ansible, it been on my lost of things to look at over the years anyway so its a good excuse to dig into it
- Comment on Managing proxmox, virtual machines, and others 1 month ago:
Thanks for the recommendation, I’ll check it out
- Comment on Managing proxmox, virtual machines, and others 1 month ago:
Yea that was going to be my next step if I don’t find anything that fits my needs, I’ll make it - but this is a solved problem for sure. I just need the right thing that’s close enough to what I’m looking for.

We’ve heard promises like that in the past and its almost never come to fruition. So, I doubt that very much.

Didn’t even know that’s a thing. I definitely wouldn’t buy it just for that though

- Comment on [deleted] 2 months ago:
Hilariously, all of those issues could be resolved if those same developers that are complaining donated some of their skills and expertise into contributing to the fixes and features they need.
This reads very much like an “Old man yells at cloud” moment.
- Comment on Google Gemini struggles to write code, calls itself “a disgrace to my species” 2 months ago:
Exactly. I’m over simplifying it of course, but that’s generally how it works. Its also not “AI” as in Artificial Intelligence, in the traditional sense of the word, its Machine Learning. But of course its effectively had a semantic change over the last couple years because AI sounds cooler.

Because its an auto complete trained on typical responses to things. It doesn’t know right from wrong, just the next word based on a statistical likelihood.
