the ghost of entropys past

fearing 25 tbh

coating failure or user issue ie: corrosive sweat type shit or gripping too hard?

i LOVE to jump!

(multiple 1hr+ runs on t3-4 maps)

instead of ds_record its gonna be mc_record

ggs to china team

the most and hardest ive ever truly cared to improve in this game for myself is long after the dream of grinding it out with the boys and climbing divs has been squashed by life being lived. I almost distinctly remember one of my first mentors for pyro sayin some shit about he had a bad day at work and playing was fun, couldnt understand it since how could you have fun at something youre supposed to win at? Older than he was at the time, almost 14 years ago now. i feel fucking cheesy for posting this but maybe its just time to accept ts for what it is and I have to move on or move with it n make new friends and play with new people. Got an appt on friday for something related to mental, frankly i dont remember what its actually for. Never done it before, kinda scared kinda excited. Definitely worried that if i find out what i need to focus on I'll snap out of this... life? and leave it behind like the rest of the guys did. Hope we win clearcut on thursday to brighten the mindset going into it.

64bit update upped the fps cap from 500 to 1000, on my system changing it much at all fucks visuals in the same way. If youre capping FPS for motion clarity purposes and are on AMD, you need to look into scanline sync to achieve what gsync/nvidia control panel (as a sub-in for not being able to use fps_max now)/rtss would get you.

whats a solid 140-180ish hz OLED looking like nowadays? Need to learn about the tech and figure might as well find a good baseline to work with

lenovo laptop 14alc05
ryzen 5700u
16gb, 7.7gb shared, 512mb dedicated to i-gpu
driving 1440p external monitor via hdmi.
benched day 1 of 64bit

did a bunch of testing after joining skial harvest @ 22 players and with "low" avgs of 60-70 and shooting up to 170 when not looking at a lot of players (same as test #1). Seemingly can't alt-tab with -vulkan being used, not sure if igpu drivers are being weird or what.

Will say, very pleased with how this is turning out. I've slowly seen this laptop over the past... 2? 3? years become more and more viable for the random stuff i want to do occasionally. Went back to harvest, 15-20 players on the server lowest i saw with dx81, mastercom very low was like 80-90 on a mid.

I ran nerd shit for dx81, 90, and 95 progressively working up to the final 2 states i benched. like 2 dozen other tests if you want to check it out here: https://pastebin.com/b3d0bqfH

friend teams ontop.

most recent fav memory is forcing mak to play demo and resurrecting console for a night of medic against a team Ire was playing on.

(i got 45% acc on scout)

for the hair/shampoo thing look into conditioner only washing/co-washing. stripping oils from your hair causes it to be all fucky

invisible with diamondback is frustrating, visible texan with crits is funny
