One of my favorite things about meme lore is when the Crowder meme (x is y change my mind) hit Tumblr some people started writing call-out posts about Crowder saying not to use the meme because he's problematic

The Smithsonian museums are going to close January 2nd due to the shutdown, which means they may remain closed for part or all of AGDQ, and that pisses me off because I really wanted to visit them while I was up there.

this is conjecture really, but maybe MHW is actually really well optimized and we just can't see it without tweaks, because they fumbled some of the port work.

monster hunter world pc's use of SwitchToThread seems like it might have been done to be analogous to their ps4 and xbox backends, without really understanding the implications, since both of those consoles' kernels have different thread scheduling behavior compared to desktop OSes. which would explain why SpecialK is so effective just by disabling that alone?

i'm kind of curious about the future of pc gaming, because it does appear that monster hunter world uses a job dispatch system for the bulk of its per-frame work, which is a pretty massive change to MT Framework. but this also means that by design it will try to fully saturate the CPU unless intentionally limited.

so, a lot more games coming will be using 100% CPU, and a lot of people are gonna call that "poorly optimized" when it's really just being far more efficient than it's ever been.

also still losing my mind playing this game at 120+ fps it is soooooo smoooooth

monster hunter world's sense of scale is perfectly tuned. fuck open world bullshit, gimme this kind of stuff all day every day.

over a thousand gigabytes of hgihg end viodej games

Tootle seems like a nice Gnome-ish native app for Mastodon, but it uses 71 megabytes of memory, isn't quite aligned with Gnome HIG, and also doesn't seem to support CW text correctly?

Is there an English guide for ActivityPub/LitePub implementors anywhere so I don't have to grind my patience against the W3C specification

shes a good toy~

so I'm playing Monster Hunter World on PC and trying to blow through low rank so I can get to where I am on PS4. Anjanath is as awful as ever to hunt, and Zorah Magdaros is so painfully slow and boring to fight.

but god damn it this game is pretty as hell at high framerates.

cherenkhov's gun: if you say in the first chapter that a rifle is hanging on the wall, it must glow blue by the second or third chapter

apparently having five hundred fucking characters by default is still not enough for people to write some goddamn context for what they're talking about online

Leave your non-fedi (Birdsite, Dumblr, etc.) drama outside fedi, thank you. The rest of us who aren't part of those cultures really don't wanna see your dirty laundry be aired. We came here to get away from that.

re: discourse re: controversial individuals joining fedi 

oh it's not even fedi related?
