WTF is AMD doing?

Be the change you want to see in the world and run your own server. According to Wikipedia, Vent was updated in 2023, so apparently it's not completely dead, yet.
TeamSpeak never left for me. I've been running my own server for years now and a couple of friends and me still use it all the time.
I played an unhealthy amount of Baldur's Gate 3 and finished my run. Sadly, Ansur, the last boss before I went onto the finale, ended the Honor Mode part. I'm a bit salty about it, since it wasn't the boss being too hard or something, but mainly bugs, that did me in.
My first try I got him to half HP, then the game just didn't want to use any actions anymore. I couldn't even save and quit, but had to go through Task Manager to kill it. Next try I get him to like 80hp, fresh turn with all of my characters, but the game just crashes. Third time, he's at 80 or so again, but because of terrible animations I didn't see that he was supposed to be flying in the air, charging his giga attack. Because of some debuff, he was just writhing on the floor, so I just couldn't really tell. I had a dozen Globe of Invulnerability scrolls, so I could have survived easily.
Anyway, I'll do another run next month, after Final Fantasy VII Rebirth, and maybe the new Diablo 4 season, but dunno about that last one.
NVIDIA not just tried, but still doing it, and apparently soon you'll play with these NVIDIA ACE NPCs in PUBG and a few other games.
We pass the ps5 controller so we each get an npc during combat and do splitscreen for the world.
Is local coop different from online coop? I'm playing through the game with a friend right now, and we both have our own small party, and control two characters in a fight. Or maybe I just misunderstood what you meant.
I dropped Pillars of Eternity II: Deadfire for the time being. It's good, but I just don't feel it right now. The ship travel does suck though.
Then more coop Baldur's Gate 3. We are now in Act 3, about to go into the city.
BG3 is part of the reason I stopped playing Pillars 2, since I got a lot more into it than I thought. That's why I started another solo run, trying to make it through Honor Mode. So far, I died twice in Act 1. First time was the three Intellect Devourers shortly after the tutorial. Second time was to the Gnolls that siege the two dudes in a cave. That one, I could have survived, but did some dumb misplays and paid the price. The current run is going pretty good, although I had some really close moments. The Spectator fight almost took out my party, same with the Robots in the Underdark Tower. If I die again, I'll probably change to a custom difficulty, where I can save, just to learn the game and fights more, before I try again. I severely overestimated my game knowledge.
I also beat Windblown a few more times, and moved up to the final difficulty, but barely did any attempts since then.
While this is classic Valve non-communication, apparently the devs were hacking or reverse-engineering some closed source stuff, that Valve might not have agreed with.

Just so we are clear on how the mod works on our side, there is no leaked code involved. We're using a build from 2020 that has security exploits and a hacked dedicated server to be able to even play online while working on it internally.
The mod cannot be released in this state
This is all just some third-party information, I have no idea about this and don't really care about Counter-Strike.
They need to bring a lot more value than the 5070, otherwise only Linux users and fanboys will buy these. A $50 discount is not enough, and I don't know if these rumored $70 will do it.
I think I've only ever got coupons for random shovelware games, that I would never buy. So removing them is no skin off my back.
They took NVIDIA's hand and slapped themselves with it. AMD said they changed the name, to better compare to their competitor.
Next generation we'll get R580 to better match with Intel, since they seem like the closer competitor.
