Now we’re cooking with gas!

I guess appending a “and þorn” to it would do þe trick

I’d totally go for adding a þorn to þe English alphabet.

Arch btw

Doesn’t look like a butthole for once I guess

Techno feudalism mentioned. Queue a Varoufakis talk

That’s crazy, I thought that would be an invalid cast or something.

Gradually typed is a great description because it’s neither fully static or dynamic. TS does allow you to circumvent the types too easily to be called statically typed.

const strings: string[] = ([1] as any[])

Is ok in TS land so the type of strings is not really static so to speak because you can assign whatever to it. Writing this in Dart would give

error - The argument type 'List<dynamic>' can't be assigned to the parameter type 'List<string>'. - argument_type_not_assignable

if I’m not mistaken.

TS as a statically typed language is not what I would call it. It’s a language with enforced type annotations but can be circumvented pretty easily. For example when receiving a JSON from an http request a string field can be just whatever.

Yeah, I might actually play wow since I can reduce the XP scaling by a lot. It goes from 50 mobs at lvl 10 to 600+ to level up at lvl 60. I have a 7mo old no way I have time for that hahaha.

I use SQL for work so I can mod the DB easily to remove the exponential scaling in favor of linear scaling like mob XP scales.

You can mod the database for creatures to drop more xp, gold and loot from the looks of it.

Update, I downloaded the VMangos database. It looks like it might be possible to edit drop rates with creature_loot_template(ChanceOrQuestChance) and XP gain by using creature_template(xp_multiplier)

I haven’t hosted anything yet but it could be tested by editing a Chicken’s xp_multiplier from 0.0 to 1.0

I’ve been seriously turned off by the grind of WoW. Are you able to do something like reduce the XP level scaling or something so that every level is like 30m and improve drop rates?

Every year is the year of the Linux desktop

Always has been

Maybe nothing broke, they just support genocides in general.

You have to do some extraordinary mental gymnastics to expect paying for all soldiers in the roman empire is comparable to paying for all soldiers in the US.

Even calculating based on the silver content when sestertius is 2.5g silver gives 90M grams of 90 metric tons. Each gram is valued around $1 so that’s a 90M USD there.

This could mean that it’s the year of thy Linux desktop 🤔
