Continuing off from >>270725, the awakened board volunteer 暖日 has temporarily banned the traitorous Global moderator j*ye*se after the latter showed his true colors as an agent of the bioluminati.

While fierce blows were exchanged and many Anons heroically sacrificed their VPN endpoints posting suddenly-decreed "forbidden" lore of the Underage Stream to fend off the infiltrator's pedophilic rays with second-dimensional memetic wards, the wounded traitor nonetheless has retained his moderation powers and vows to continue his quest to morally cleanse the sleepy chan of all who oppose his global >rules.

Imageposting from the shadows, what vile schemes may he be plotting to burn the Kraut?
Will the Tengu-Dolphin band take advantage of the Chaos?
Could the Lord of Cakes seek to expand his domain?
And where oh where is our deer leader Sturgeon in this dire hour of need?

Find out RIGHT NOW on Metaball ZZZ!

Unless sturgeon has changed his mind or delayed it, I think the automod will be global but in a limited capacity to deal with CP or spam as defined by repetitive and similar posts made within a small window of time.
Current /b/ automod was made by a new volunteer who isn't a retard like I am
Automod is not live, it will be global and taking care of the usual suspects/easily identifiable stuff. It will not be making editorial decisions and will evaluate posts AFTER making a local copy to avoid a hoihoi scenario.

>and will evaluate posts AFTER making a local copy to avoid a hoihoi scenario.
That'd be very wise. Seen an auto-janny wipe out half a chan before, since it wasn't configured to do so beforehand / no archives.

I mean it will perform however many evaluations it needs to after pulling the posts from the site a single time instead of constantly hammering the jschan api. 99% of the time it'll be sat watching the live feed for each board with no performance impact. I also have it tuned to be very apprehensive of deleting anything. If it isn't blatant cp/blatant ip hopping spam/not in a short list of things to ban on sight it will file a report and let humans deal with it.

The project got stuck at about 80% due to moving, I'll be dusting it back off to continue this weekend but that's going to involve a lot of testing where I have it go through the last x days of posts and see where it trips up, then making tweaks and running the whole test again. It's very good with anything specific I tell it to pounce on but it was flagging some posts in the fat bitches thread on /b/ as csam (it was just pics of fat bitches, some of these light LLM models are weird). It wont be perfect but the damage it will be able to do will be minimal and overall should be a net positive.

End goal is to have it running alongside a self hosted llm an the appserver directly to eliminate latency, certain individuals may have their shit wiped before anyone else even gets updated over websockets.

Some random has been writing translation patches for a bunch of PC-98 games that have English patches on other platforms or external scripts, including Rance and YU-NO. He also did some translation for Alicesoft fandisks and even admitted he was doing it to learn Japanese. Pretty rad if you ask me.

Come here when you're listless and don't know what game you want to play. Ask others for suggestions. Or come here to help out others.
If you want a recommendation, try giving some information others might find useful to help you out:
>What genre(s) you're most into.
>What console(s)/systems you have--if that's important to you.
>What game(s) did you play last/most recently? Do you want something similar or different?
>Is there a franchise/gamedev you really like?
>What catalogs/games have you already tried and can't seem to pick up?
>How much time do you have in each play session?
>Tell some other interest of yours.
>What games have you left unfinished?
>Are you just trying to choose between X many games? Say them and say why.
If you don't provide any info and just want someone to recommend you something with no information, then prepare to have everyone recommend Knack to you.

You have proven yourself a better writer than many a modern one. For, despite people being able to thread the needle with the thread that you had given them, you did not spite them by stabbing the needle into their hands and eating the thread just to laugh that they did not expect it.

Artistically, I don't know. For I like it enough as is for the moment of clean silence that follows the last page creating a chilling effect that leads into the reveal panel very well, or if I should lament the fact that we could have seen a whole bullet + casing being shot out and deflected in slow motion.

Discuss emulation-related things here.

NEWS

>ユデア天堂 shoahs Ryujinx not through lawsuits but by buying out/threatening the main developer to quit and delete fucking everything.
>However, no DMCAs were filed against the source code unlike Jewzu and none of the contributors were banned nor were any forks taken down, so the emergence of a successor-fork is only a matter of time unless 任天堂 feels like resuming the endless game of DMCA-mole or buying more slaves across the wider emu community.
>The unthinkable has happened and Bloodborne has become playable on PC in less than a month after it first went ingame using shadPS4, a few dozen other games have gone ingame since then.
>Of note is that the emulator requires FSGSBASE instructions necessitating an Intel Ivy bridge or first generation AMD Zen CPU at minimum.
>With Xbox one game encryption having been successfully cracked, various Xboner wrappers soon emerged so people can finally play the vast library of fantastic Xbox wan exclusives beyond the clutches of Microsoft even though none of them run Lunix yet. XWine1 and WinDurango are the most prominent at the moment, with XWine1 capable of playing Minecrap to some degree.
>RPCS3 wires up online multiplayer emulation for a variety of games including Armored Core for Answer.
>MAME devs cook up Nuked-SC55 for emulating the Roland SC-55 Midi synth for all your obscure Nipponese エロゲ and/or Doom needs.
>Dolphin switches to new release model, now instead of one (1) "stable" release every 10 years they'll publish a new "stable" release every 6 months which should make organizing netplay gamenights somewhat easier.
>PCSX2 officially releases 2.0 as stable feat. playable hardware mode Ace Combat 04, but it doesn't seem they intend to change their current release "schedule".
>Parallel-gs makes steady progress, no ETA on an official merge with mainline PCSX2 yet.
>Stenzek incurs a predictable soy/HRT(?)-induced meltdown over users of ebul Duckstation forks sometimes making erroneous bug reports on mainline along with emotional damage incurred from the toxic emu community or some shit so he changed the loicense to prevent anti-semites from redistributing custom forks+builds of HIS sacred code!!11...anything prior to the license change is fair game though and Mednafen still exists, as do existing Duckstation forks.

It's really too bad that the thing overplays its hand by having the game lecture (you) with outside-the-game moralizing. (Execution Points and Level Of Violence have to be some of the best examples of what a 13-year old thinks is masterful writing) If I'm playing an evil run of a game where I decide to slaughter every single NPC that I'm allowed to and be as big of a bastard as is possible, then a competent writer would be able to make me feel like as bastard without a demon child showing up at the end to lecture me on why I am one. the horrified reactions of the in-game characters as I have the MC snort the dust of their deceased should be more than enough.

I wasn't sure how to title this but i want to discuss the absolute garbage you and i come across in games or in news about games. For example i came across this yellow paint thing in a game that i tried out. The absolutely amazing part was that this was literally in the start, right as you started out. Then there was this absolute World Of Warcraft shitstorm that happened in the 9.1.5 update where they turned the game into a leftists dream of niggertopia and more. You don't have to imagine because i have a entire folder of screenshots and videos i saved back then. Some of these are not from the 9.1.5 update but the majority are. Oh and we can't forget the crapcom leaks.

An OCR tool (preferably handwriting since the 漢字 are compressed to shit at handheld resolutions) is good to have for the rare N0.5 seal script the Nips love to throw in their children's games to show everyone online they did, but if you can handle Nipponese grammar at the level of a kusogaki even lacking knowledge of ancient Chinese scripture should let you understand enough to get through.

Don't "grind" Anki if you don't want to burn out and quit Japanese. Anki should at most be a complement to immersion if you use it at all.
Unless you're a very early beginner and can't understand easy material at all yet, in which case you do need to memorize a lot of vocabulary, but you should still go easy on yourself.

>Advice on building or upgrading
Post your build list or current specifications, including a monitor: https://pcpartpicker.com/
https://userbenchmark.com/ is ran by a huge Intel shill / AMD hater. We don't know his review autism, but now you know his, the numbers are accurate otherwise.

>Motherboards
Don't pair a K CPU with a B Mobo chipset, but pcpartpicker should auto-warn you about compatibility.
mATX / iTX is "cheaper" but are still ultimately gimmicks that fill a niche, and have less room for different parts / cabling (especially if you're a new builder). ATX is the preferable as the default.

>CPUs
Intel is limping along, AMD is the name of the game. AMD X3D CPU's aren't mandatory if you're looking for an area to save money, you can still get a most of the performance for a notably lower price with a non-X3D CPU.

>CPU coolers
Avoid liquid coolers with a single 120mm fan. Recent chinky AIO's have undercut the market while still being good quality, but the number of models has flooded the market - make sure you're getting the exact one that reviewed well, since many sound the same but have lower performance.

This. Aside from Verbatim/Ritek's M-DISC format, there's also Pioneer's DM for Archive. Note that both require a matching compliant drive and media. Aside from optical media for somewhat shorter terms (~30-50 years depending on environmental conditions) there's also tape formats such as LTO, which are surprisingly affordable for medium-tier data hoarders if you use drives/media from a generation or two behind the latest. Finally, especially for cheap offsite backups, remember cloud storage can be used with clientside encryption and even integrated into automatic backup workflows.

>>315064 
HDD/SSD are ticking timebombs that can die at literally any second. Never ever trust them for long-term offline "cold" storage, always keep them plugged in for continuous online S.M.A.R.T. monitoring. If you accumulate data you care about between regular backup (RAID is not a backup) intervals, you must also use RAID so that when (not if, WHEN) a drive silently dies you won't lose data and can simply "resilver" your array with a replacement drive before your array runs out of redundancy.

Usenet is particularly good for that, as anything you upload gets propagated through multiple servers handled by different companies. You need to pay for that though, but instead of paying monthly you can just pay for bandwidth in advance. And you definitely want some proper encryption for that.

The OSTs of Metroid Prime 1-3 are amazingly unique music. They perfectly embody the atmosphere of the games, teetering between beautiful enigma and tragic fury, almost more than the rest of the game can hold, through a shimmering cascade of ethereal synths.

Composer Kenji Yamamoto offers little insight on any possible influences that I've read, and I've never found anything much like it, aside from the (probably coincidental) OST by Peter Miller for the movie Spirits of the Air, Gremlins of the Clouds (Warning: Contains Australium) that I stumbled across. I'm admittedly not much of a music person, so my range of familiarity might be the problem here, but it seems unlike anything else.
