TFT Central is still very good imo.

This is correct. I'm a UK Discord user, so I've been subject to these requirements for ~6 months now. It's basically nothing - I'm in near 50 "servers", of them all I only really can think of one channel in one of them that is flagged "nsfw" and thus blocked to me as I never ID'd myself.

If you don't use Discord as a source of "nsfw" content you can comfortably ignore these requirements. I do realize there are some communities that may fare a lot worse than my gaming / software dev interests, and may be falsely claimed "nsfw" just for their existence. Which yeah, that absolutely sucks.


Thank you for the recommendation, that sounds much more like my level at the moment!


You are very welcome. The other resource I found excellent was Khan Academy which is free (donation supported) and has videos and supporting resources covering a very wide range on mathematical topics. I would recommend the “precalculus” playlist which is just a general grab bag of topics covering algebra, basic vectors and matrices and a few other things.


Microsoft intend to deprecate V2 and move fully to V3 basically as soon as they can, pretty much in lockstep with Google:

Thanks for the link. Definitely sad to hear


The board recommended has 16 ram slots.


The ram kit is still 8x32gb so the price is lower than it actually would be.


For online Poker, one of the current database tools runs in to this issue - PokerTracker 4 (PT4).

These tracker databases are usually used to generate a HUD - numerical readouts surrounding each player shown on the table. PT allows for custom HUDs to be saved/exported/shared, and there is a cottage industry building and selling such HUDS. These HUDs can often bundle hundreds of custom stats - basically a subset of SQL queries, a simple example would be "times_raised / opportunities_to_raise WHERE position= 'button'", that sort of thing.

For performance reasons these custom stats are cached, which obviously makes some sense. However, each cached stat creates a new column in the custom_cache table of PT4's current database, a PostgreSQL 9.0 backend. If you play mostly Heads-Up SNG or the 3-handed Spins, it's actually quite easy to go over the (IIRC) 4096 column limit there by purchasing and importing one too many fancy HU HUD packages!

This completely borks PT4, it can no longer open - and players can no longer make money! In my previous work, I've supported many a player and fixed this "too many columns" error numerous times (by deleting enough custom HUDs from their account until the PT4 can start up correctly once more). Funny to see this pop up elsewhere!


> Isn't RUMINT on the Intel problem that, even though it's nominally a chip problem, it may occur primarily due to motherboards not following guidance?

That was merely Intel's first attempt at deflection / damage control. Kernel of truth to it, of course.


An interesting project, from what I can tell it's a JavaScript version of AutoHotkey's window interaction features? (also it works on Linux and Mac!) Very cool!


I expect this will be resolved with an update quickly, but ExplorerPatcher is wonderful and absolutely key to my enjoyment of Windows 11.


If you aren't familiar with it, Synplant 2 VST does an incredible "sample -> synth patch" for almost any sound you give it


Yes, that is indeed incredible - but I'd love to have the ability to upload an inventory of the synths in my room, and have the AI use any (or all!) of them for reproducing that sample.

I guess we're pretty close to that .. keep an ear out!
