![]() ![]() The story of Halo Infinite’s troubled development has to include the somewhat mixed reception of Halo 5. Octo– Halo 5 is Released to a Mixed Reception As Halo 5 hadn’t even been released at the time of this interview, though, there was little speculation at that time regarding the full meaning of this interview. Looking back, it’s pretty clear that this was the first official sign that “ Halo 6” was going to be something different. While Microsoft’s Frank O’Connor stopped short of naming that game in an i nterview with GamesRadar, he did mention that most people felt that the “Reclaimer Trilogy” which was supposed to play out across Halo 4, 5, and 6 had grown into more of a saga. Weeks before the release of Halo 5, Microsoft surprised many by confirming that initial work had already begun on the next Halo game. September 2015 – “Serious, Real Planning” Begins on Halo 6 The timeline of Halo Infinite‘s troubled development isn’t always pretty, but it’s a necessary tool for anyone who wants to understand how Halo Infinite went from a game on the back of the Xbox Series X packagin g to a title that may or may not even be released next year. What began as the seemingly inevitable development of Halo 6 morphed into one of the deepest dives into development hell that we’ve seen in recent memory. The answer to that question involves requires us to go all the way back to 2015 when Halo Infinite was little more than an idea. The revelation that the game will be released a year after its recently delayed debut has prompted some fans to ask the question, “How did we get to this point?” Microsoft recently confirmed that Halo Infinite is now scheduled to be released sometime during the fall of 2021. ![]()

"Hot Chat 3000 very deliberately sets out to expose, visualize, exacerbate these biases," the site says. "The outputs of LLMs are a reflection of the data they were trained on," the group says, referring to large language models. (Hot or Not was a website in the early 2000s that let people rate whether users who had submitted their pictures were "hot" or "not.") -Gabriel Whaley April 27, 2023 In addition to CLIP, the site's rating system utilizes the "Hot or Not" dataset from the website as well as the SCUT-FBP5500 dataset for facial beauty prediction. Hot Chat 3000 says that its rating system relies predominantly on CLIP, a large machine-learning model from OpenAI that has been trained to "choose the correct captions for a particular image among a number of incorrect text captions." The model itself was trained on a dataset of 400 million image-text pairs. The rating system depends on certain large language models So a user who earns a score of 5.4 will be matched with another person who scores between 5.0 and 5.9. The picture is "analyzed" and given a "hotness" rating on a scale of 1-to-10, which in turn dictates who the user can chat with. When a user enters Hot Chat 3000, they're asked to upload a picture of themselves as electronic music hums in the background.

![]() Leyline of the Void, Bojuka Bog, and Rest in Peace can be very challenging for Dredge to deal with and are worth mulling to if Dredge is a hard match-up for your deck. ![]() Obviously graveyard hate is great against Dredge. Don’t do this against LED dredge since they discard on turn one with Faithless Looting and friends. If you’re playing against Manaless making them play first can put a damper in their game (you could refer to this as a “ Time Walk“) because they won’t be able to discard on turn one so it basically lets you play first and draw. There are a lot of ways to play against Dredge and interrupt their game plan. The are still using Bridge from Below to make a ton of zombies but are more worried about lasting a few turns instead of comboing off all in one. They’re more likely to sacrifice creatures to Cabal Therapy and don’t always have Dread Return maindeck. Instead of trying to take advantage of the Flayer combo LED is more interested in getting Ichorid, Prized Amalgam, and making a ton of zombies. They will normally choose to play and then use cards such as Breakthrough, Faithless Looting, or Careful Study to start filling their graveyard. LED Dredge has a different plan for filling their graveyard. The goal is to either make a ton of zombies and attack with them or to Dread Return a Flayer of the Hatebound and a Golgari Grave-Troll which should be large enough to kill your opponent when it enters the battlefield off the Flayer trigger. They have Bridge from Below to make zombies whenever they sacrifice a creature for to flashback Cabal Therapy or Dread Return. Once they are able to start dredging they try to dump as much of their deck into their graveyard as possible (sometimes Dread Returning Ballustrade Spy targeting themselves to dump their entire deck into their graveyard) to get Narcomemba onto the battlefield as well as bring back Ichorid, Nether Shadow and Prized Amalgam. ( Phantasmagorian has the ability of discard three cards to return it to your hand, you can hold priority and activate this twice to discard six cards and get your graveyard off to a good start.) Or even better they like to discard Phantasmagorian which allows them to discard almost their whole hand. Manaless Dredge normally likes to draw instead of play since it will allow them to discard a card on their first turn (like Golgari Grave-Troll) that will let them dredge instead of draw. LED dredge is definitely the more popular of the two but I’ll cover both. Manaless Dredge is more like The Epic Storm, much more likely to win on one turn but more glass cannon, while LED Dredge is much more like Ad Nauseam Tendrils, a little bit slower and much less likely to win on turn one but also much more reliable. The differences between the two types of Dredge are much like the differences between the two types of Storm decks. There are two types of Legacy Dredge: Lion’s Eye Diamond dredge and Manaless Dredge. Since Legacy Dredge is the one that I most familiar with, let’s start with this one this week. This week I thought I’d start a series where I slowly dive into each version of Dredge and how to play against them a little bit deeper. Finally you'll get a basic familiarity with the deck instead of wasting a year casting Lava Spike like a monkey.A few weeks ago I wrote a quick overview of the Dredge mistress (or monster depending who you are). Plus by giving the deck a try with budget options you may illicit sympathy and maybe somebody will let you borrow some cards after you ingratiate yourself to their play group. ![]() For $100-150 your manaless and burn cards will be worth the same in a year because nobody actually wants to play those cards they only do so because they are poor. Don't waste $100-150 on a piece of shit deck that will alienate you from people who want to play games of magic. With the fetches being dirt cheap just play more basics, a couple of shocks if you need to. Just play budget stone blade if you want to play stone blade. ![]() ![]() ![]() Pick offline, Monopoly there is a lot of history friends Monopoly Pick Up Lines what you have to do out of the peacock line, you have to read it all right offline because what happens nowadays friends, there Monopoly Pick Up Lines are some Monopoly people that he will again You leave the copy, they get what they want offline, but they think that I will Friends, if you want to do this, it is a very thing, friends, Monopoly Pick Up Lines you can give Monopoly offline, friends, but before taking, friends, what you have to do, you must have heard one thing, friends, what you have to do, what we were given below, friends, we were many offline so you try not Monopoly to leave Monopoly Pick Up Lines Peacock line will not be found what others have to do by going down what we have to Friends, Monopoly this is a big deal, friends, nowadays no one tells you, but we Monopoly do not want to tell you, friends, it is a big thing that friends, you should Monopoly Pick Up Lines take this pick offline Monopoly because you should use it well Friends are not available, only friends here, friends, which pick you want offline, friends, nowadays everyone wanted their favorite pic offline, Monopoly they were also not available Monopoly Pick Up Lines offline, those who do not try photos, try through social Monopoly media but we will give youįriends to Monopoly meet Friends, I believe that when you are a boy or a girl, you want to use it well in talking to a girl, we have brought Monopoly Pick Up Lines it for you, friends, if you are a boy or a girl, you have to use it in talking to a girl.

But they viewed themselves as honor-bound by the tradition of their school to try. Sometimes they succeeded, and just as often they paid with their lives when they didn’t. Sometimes they were right, sometimes they were wrong. The Stoics were also men who were courageous enough to reject the status quo and fight for change they believed in. Yet it should be said that history-makers always have their critics. Critics can and do say that Thiel crossed a line in his conspiracy and did something worse than Gawker ever did. “The best revenge is to not be like that,” is how Marcus Aurelius put it. “I came to think of it like a prosecutor would,” he would say, “at the end of the day it’s not just between me and Nick Denton.” It had become to him, an issue of justice. This wasn’t easy and it challenged him ethically, and personally, and cost him millions of dollars. ![]() Where others simply hoped Gawker would become nicer on its own, or that the problem would magically disappear, he decided to actually do something. But there was the larger issue of justice at play, he said, and that this situation lamented by many needed to be solved. He would say later that he felt challenged as a Christian to simply forgive the site and its owner, that he wanted to let it go. Although Gawker had wronged him personally, he seems not to have been motivated by pure personal anger-it’s hard to stay angry that long. There is much to learn from Thiel’s conspiracy for the aspiring Stoic, both strategically and philosophically. ![]() The site declared bankruptcy and two months later, ceased publication. Secretly backing a lawsuit over Hogan’s right to privacy, Thiel’s lawyers waged battle in the courts from 2012 to 2016 where after more than $10 million in legal expense, they won a $140 million verdict against Gawker. Instead of reacting emotionally, Thiel patiently waited for Gawker to make a mistake, he recruited a team of co-conspirators to support him, he observed a set of internally imposed ethical restraints and when opportunity appeared in the form of Gawkerpublishing an illegally recorded sextape of the wrestler Hulk Hogan, Thiel pounced. Unlike most of the Stoic conspiracies, which were noble but failed, Thiel’s conspiracy actually succeeded. (You can get all the details of the nearly unbelievable story from this new book). Many people will disagree with his assessment and others will say that whatever Gawker was, their writing was protected speech, but it is indisputable that Thiel viewed them as evil and set out to do something about it. The word is neutral, the usage is not.įor nearly ten years, the billionaire Peter Thiel-who while not a Stoic, is described by friends as “the world’s richest applied philosopher”-conspired against Gawker Media, a website that had outed him as gay, but more importantly, had come to represent to him a kind of evil cultural force of meanness and homogeneity. When it comes to conspiracies, there are good ones and terrible ones and complicated ones. So while the word “conspiracy” has an unpleasant, even evil, connotation, in truth the word is neutral. Even the founding fathers of America, many of them proud students of the Stoics, could be said to have conspired against the King of England to create a new nation and risked their lives to do it (“We must, indeed, all hang together, or, most assuredly, we shall all hang separately.”) Seneca was similarly implicated and forced to commit suicide. ![]() Thrasea, Rubellius Plautus, Barea Soranus and Musonius Rufus conspired against Nero and were executed when they were caught. His wife’s father, Cato, fought bravely in the Roman Civil War against Caesar. ![]() Brutus led the conspiracy against Julius Caesar. It could be said that the history of Stoicism is the history of brave men and women fighting and conspiring against tyrants. ![]() ![]() ![]()
![]() The second fight is clearly easier than the other three, and both the first one and the third ones have give some troubles. I have replayed 3 or 4 times, and it doesn't feel to me that there is a clear difficult progression. a bit weird (this section assumes that you have a good equipment and training of course). I know that they are cold-heart foxes, but I would like to learn a bit more why they are that way. In that sense, both Lynn and Tyra seems to be a bit two-dimensional Big Bads, but can be easily explained for their lack of more screen time. The Makhor content adds a depth to Sabia's personality (as it shows her capacity for empathy) that it really resonates with me. I hope that we have the chance to learn more about catgirls in future events. The character development is coming along nicely in general, but I was hoping for a bit more of Maply's screen time. But I think that one reason of why I like it so much (besides than the characters' proportions match my fantasies of course) is because the way that the scenes are written. Browsing nomo's page in HF, you can see that he has improved a lot. Ībout the pace of the game, maybe I'm way too obsessed with walkthroughs and wikis and the like, but I think that three parts of four (well one could argue than 2 and half: there is no hard time limit in the first part, but I like Kulgan too much: I mean like Kulgan's bonuses too much, to let him die) time-sensitive, are not the best option, specially if you don't like to hurry up and be efficient (I had heard that there are players like that). Talking about that: I understand the logic behind to lock out the submissive content if you have taken already your first steps on the domination path, but I just needed one point to unlock a couple of scenes. Also the addiction of the Gallery is a good incentive in my opinion to take a little time playing around with the early parts of the game (specially the Relief Tents). ![]() I specially appreciate the option to see the scenes sorted by characters is particularly nice and it's a great thing that you have been able to add it so early in the cycle game development. You have done a great, great job with the Gallery. Now that I have a compelling reason to do so, I have played a complete playthrough (and of course I didn't peek at all at the excellent guides by s3382306: general guide and by Ndsferrari: dominant Sabia). If you have a high score with your Captain (or Jadk), they provide an item for the feast. If you saved Kulgan, he brings a gift to your feast. Money obtained from the bar orcs is increased. Rewards for doing well on the catgirl quest are increased. ![]() Various typos, bugfixes, and other polishing. Multiple balance changes that reduce the money requirement for the feast. Now that we are far into the game the update has one dom and one sub CG, so you might not see everything in one play through. New gallery for each CG you have seen, with the option to unlock the new ones after you see them. The new work option for the shops will appear in the shop itself as a button. Fully remade shops with new assets to make it easier to use them. ![]() A lot of new reveals and lore progression. Fully reworked systems and core engine changes. Many new characters, bases and backgrounds.
