#62 what do you think about ai? in Off Topic

hYm3nSl4yrdelirentsIMHO, the future is local models and cheaper hardware, so everyone can run AI themselves. But that would mean $0 for their magical cloud compute which is the only business they have.
i'm not sure that hardware can improve at a rate faster than the models grow. it really sucks to have to send your data over to the big companies so they can run inference (and do whatever they do with all the data)

and then there's the problem of efficiency/environmental impact, which people are making a big deal about. But running the models in datacentres is always going to be more efficient / better for the environment than people running the models locally.

really sucks

some analysts predict that local AI models can be as good as AI that ran in a datacenter half a year ago, it's not just the hardware improving but several other factors too like compression techniques and algorithmic efficiencies

a GTX 3090 can run qwen 3.8-27b which gets a better AI intelligence score (doesn't just include googling information) than Claude Opus 4.5, GPT-5.2 and Gemini 3 7 months ago

#7 Valve comp mm in TF2 General Discussion

hotdothow poorly it was implemented

yeah let me play against one of the 30 spinbotting cheaters in the top 50 overall leaderboard who were queued for matchmaking 24/7 so that valve can get the correct feedback that they need to implement changes that make it more appealing to competitive or casual players, hint: it's to ban cheaters runining the game which needs no further explanation that they won't

#69 Odin banned (again) in TF2 General Discussion

ClarkSo if that's the case you can easily go back and check why Odin was not banned for the badwater demo.

AC investigations operate on the premise of the player being innocent, it is not their job to prove why someone didn't cheat. This is something AC holds to the highest standard so what you are asking for does not exist per se. Brian told you that there is no trace of that match being investigated, whether that never happened or the documentation for it is gone, no one can tell you with 100% certainty and you've been told as much already. Samus told you that there wasn't a time where everyone but one person was in favour of a ban for Odin and I don't remember such a thing happening either. Me (and others) have personally established that the AC staff shouldn't be a mere 3 people anymore and that not everyone has to agree with each other or cast their verdict for something to happen as this has caused cases to stall (due to reasons mentioned already), and this procedure was established long before that match was played.

Why you would bring up Discord is also beyond me. There is no ban-voting process happening there and every investigation is documented thoroughly in detail on the forums. The Discord is limited to general discussions, chit-chat, questions and ping reminders to look at cases and to vote in the forum threads or calls to archive - any kind of reviews for specific demos would not be written on Discord.

#18 suspicious players in TF2 General Discussion

waterboy526I'm coming on here to post about some suspicions of certain players in the competitive scene that I wanted to bring to light. I've been keeping an eye on these players for a while and wanted to get an opinion from the community as to what others think.

Unfortunately, most of what I am about to present is far from conclusive and more so just pure speculation, but imo it's something worth acknowledging, especially now that there seems to be more players going against RGL's code of conduct that are being brought to light. I don't expect there to be any action taken given the lack of it in more damning cases that have come out, but I figured I'd speak up about it and see other people’s views on it.

First player in question I have is jfk. Allegedly a comp player from the past who has come back into the scene recently, this is a player who has been extremely active in Yoshi's pug website, tf2pugs.com. From those who have played against him in those pugs, as well as in different servers, he has been blatantly cheating for some time. He is seen toggling it during these pugs almost every time whether it's on scout or on sniper, and imo doesn't even try to hide it. There are several logs where this is the case and I would recommend analyzing them to come to a better conclusion. Take any log that he’s had between September 2023 to December 2023, as he performs incredibly without fail. I bring this up, given that at the time of this post being made, he's currently won IM and yet still somehow hasn't been acknowledged despite in my eyes it being obvious in my eyes.

One of many example logs:
https://logs.tf/3498624#76561197975235658
(I’d highly recommend also looking through any other logs before and after)

Next are two accounts that caught my eye that I found to be interesting, yi-ge and yosh1. Two who it seems to be random Asia fortress players who came into RGL almost outta nowhere and win advanced. Initially, I was looking at this log in particular and thought it was suspect, while also acknowledging who these players were playing with. Now what I will say might very possibly be a reach, however I couldn’t ignore my observations and wanted to get more thoughts on this. I believe at least one of these accounts to be shared, and that one of the players to whom it’s possibly being shared to is Elijah. I noted that both of these accounts have the exact same Asia fortress badge as Aimer, having played together previously. But more notably, when these accounts started going active in North American servers, happened to be shortly after Elijah's main account got permanently banned from. For extra context, Elijah officially got banned from RGL on July 16th last year. And then shortly after, the account yi-ge was suddenly playing on North American servers on July 30th of last year, separating both events by less than 2 weeks. Following those events, these accounts suddenly start playing with the same friend group of which made the infamous chatCCP team, making a 4s team on UGC under the name of GlobalClan XIAO with those players, and then after that forming the XIAO team under the RGL league being run by aimer. Given that most of the players of the XIAO team have previously played for chatCCP, which involve the same group of people that are close associates with Elijah and his group, I couldn’t ignore what was being presented. While the playstyles and aim on both accounts are definitely suspicious, I find the activity of who these players play with to be more questionable. And given that these accounts have previously played with Aimer under the Asia Fortress league, I can’t help but feel like he is also directly involved. Once again, everything being presented here is just what I’ve gathered upon my own investigation, and could be a reach. But given the activity pattern and how it all happens to line up perfectly, I believe it’s worth acknowledging and further looked into.

#1240 Vent your anger in Off Topic

why has discord become so shit?

the mobile app barely fucking works
- everytime you join voice you have to mute and unmute for it to pick up that you're talking
- it doesn't load more than 2 of your favourite gifs no matter how long you wait but it loads the shitty trending 9gag/reddit gifs immediately
- searching messages is god awful on mobile, you always have to remove the channel filter manually and then switch tab to messages to be able to find a message
- when you jump to a message 90% of the time it won't jump you to the message but god knows where it scrolls you (same on pc)
- leaving a server is fucking buried somewhere in one of the many context menus and sub menus
- cant see userlist until you tap the channel name which they changed from swiping left, which they also changed to reply to a message now whereas every other software used for chatting uses swipe right
- if you scroll up in a channel and then switch servers/channels and back again it scrolls you down to the bottom again instead of where you stopped reading before
- on pc if you try to read older messages and people are writing in the channel it'll scroll you down every time (fucking annoying in busy servers)
- if you want more people to screenshare in a channel you have to maximise the preview, click off some dumb discord game ad, hide profile pictures, hide your own screenshare and then popout and do all that every fucking time you want to play a game like tarkov together
- the screenshare preview also shows people as talking even when they're not
- sometimes when you want to change your server display name it'll change your account-wide display name instead because it puts you on the user profile tab for whatever reason
- dont know why but sometimes i still get pings from servers i have entirelly server muted, every channel muted and @mentions and @here suppressed

if someone has a custom client that isnt shit feel free to link kthx

#51 funniest tf2 dramas? in TF2 General Discussion

A french/Belgian Highlander player during Group Stage of DeutschLAN 2015 passed out drunk and fell asleep in the shower, blocking the drain while the water was still pouring and flooding the entire upper floor. All the while the rest of his team downstairs and the enemy team were in the server waiting for him to return back to his PC.
