Supposedly since Firefox Quantum it uses a lot less than Chrome

And so far that seems to be accurate

Maybe that'll change as I use it for longer, but for now it's using a fraction of what Chrome was

Ave

@SaintWacko it leaks a lot of memory

like, I had it leak 15gb or so of memory.

which is a lot

SaintWacko

@Ave Damn

Well, currently CPU is more of a concern than memory

But I'll keep an eye on that

Unionhawk

12:59 AM

I'm training Thieving and all I can think of is this:

because this is quite literally what I am currently doing

I now have 94 cakes

that's as many as

9.4 tens

quartata

are you ok

Unionhawk

I'm stealing cakes! And playing a game of my childhood

anticapitalist furry metal anime on netflix seems pretty good so far

Private Pansy

2:54 AM

@Ave Finished it yesterday. It's pretty good.

Ave

i want the ost so much now

Unionhawk

anticapitalist furry metal anime is... narrow

woo I can do 3s on not aggressive now

hooray early combat training

this calculator is wrong!

yay

no god dammit someone is coming into my area and killing everything

murgatroid99

3:17 AM

Are you playing Runescape on a new account?

Unionhawk

I... might be

It's not ban evasion if nobody is able to connect who I am. I think that's how it works

Also I'm pretty sure I'd be starting on a level 3 character on OSRS if my appeal worked anyway

murgatroid99

It would probably be an RS3 account, unless it was already an OSRS account

Unionhawk

It wasn't

I stopped playing before OSRS became a thing

murgatroid99

RS3 is the primary continuation of the game, and OSRS is basically a reboot

Unionhawk

Yes

Reboot and now branch really

they're adding stuff

murgatroid99

3:23 AM

right

Ave

retsuko confirmed for smash

murgatroid99

@Unionhawk I have a pretty mature account. If you want, I could give you some stuff, like lower level food, weapons, and crafting materials that I'll probably never use.

Unionhawk

3:39 AM

I'm good, the main thing I miss is like, having fairy rings and such

Which... will be a while

murgatroid99

They have changed some of the beginner quests, so you should see some new early game stuff

Unionhawk

I'm in mithril gear now which is pretty good. I should do Waterfall Quest, that one gives like, ten thousand attack and strength exp

murgatroid99

In my opinion, the best strategy is always to just do every quest you can

A lot of quest rewards are good

Unionhawk

Yeah, there's a whole page on the wiki routing out quests

it completely does not account for fights but

murgatroid99

I think that's kind of a complicated question. How combat goes can depend on your equipment, and there's more skill to it now than there used to be

Unionhawk

3:54 AM

Yeah it's hard to account for

There's more to it than just "oh, level 101 tree spirit, I'm not going to be able to fight that until level 102"

but it's still "yeah I'm level 22 unless there's cheese absolutely not"

murgatroid99

If you haven't already, I would recommend enabling "Revolution" in the combat settings, then looking at recommended revolution bars on the wiki

It makes combat a lot simpler

Unionhawk

Wait are you talking RS3 combat

murgatroid99

yes

Unionhawk

Oh, yeah, no, wrong version lol

I might get into it but ehhhhh

It's still not a simple numbers game either way

it's just a slightly complex numbers game in OSRS

murgatroid99

honestly, it's been long enough that it's kind of hard to remember what combat used to be like. I guess it was basically just two people hitting each other until somebody died, eating some food in between

Unionhawk

4:00 AM

Yeah basically

There's a concept of special attacks for dragon weapons but other than that

murgatroid99

Right, they did get rid of special attacks in RS3, but then they brought them back

Now the combat is somewhat more like other MMOs. There's an action bar with abilities and cooldowns

Unionhawk

yeah

Ave

rs3 is the one with acceptable graphics, right

osrs is the one that is super old

Unionhawk

I'm not that old

but yes

murgatroid99

@Ave OSRS is a fork based on the codebase from 2007. So not really that old

Unionhawk

4:06 AM

it's like, 2001 or something

well, 2013, but

Ave

I mean, the one that looks old

Unionhawk

Yeah

It's classic

Ave

I used to play darkscape

then it got removed. fun.

murgatroid99

I have to mention at this point that there is also a Runescape Classic, which is a super old version. I don't think that's what you're in, because I don't think it allows new accounts

Unionhawk

I don't think it still runs, at all

I had an account in that game

it's bad

murgatroid99

4:09 AM

runescape.com/classicapplet/playclassic.ws

Unionhawk

oh shit it does still run

murgatroid99

I think it didn't run for a while, but they started the servers back up at some point

Unionhawk

But no I am in regular old school

Ave

they should OS it tbh

quartata

do you really want to see the source of a Java applet from 2001

Unionhawk

4:17 AM

Honestly yes

quartata

k

Not there's anything wrong with Java applets, just that it's not going to be pretty most likely

murgatroid99

A lot of the interesting stuff is probably on the server anyway

I would expect that the applet itself is mostly UI and rendering

4:31 PM

is there a way to confirm multiple listings at once on steam, rather than having to go through each one individually?

as if having to use my phone to confirm my market listings wasn't annoying enough, I have to confirm each individually and it requires loading a web page (within the steam app) for each one and steam community web site has never been very quick to load

Ronan

@Chippies There are checkboxes in the app to select multiple to confirm

Chippies

@Ronan OMG ARE YOU SERIOUS, I thought they were some images that didn't load

those are some massive checkboxes

Tim Stone

Hah

Yeah, the UI is...urgh

5:13 PM

@SaintWacko yeah, I've gotten my number, and further playing of comp is unnecessary stress, curbstomps (SOMEHOW) and SR updates to people quitting the match and Blizzard being "I GUESS THAT CAN'T BE HELPED" while still SOMEHOW thinking it would be an okay thing to mark winners up and losers down by just as much as the game would've hadn't this happened

instead of employing sophisticated coping mechanisms such as "only fucking change the quitter's number" or "fucking find a backfill and reward them somehow with additional purple points"

mind you, TF2 competitive copied from Overwatch and is just as stupid, except it will spawn AI in place of the quitter, as if that was any good
