    Yup, I played on 1.19.4 fabric WURST and that shit was smooth as butter. Playing single player 1.20 is slow as shit but when another server has to do all the heavy lifting and isn't lagging it feels like playing modern minecraft on a modern gaming PC you can crank the draw distance up to max

    I played for a few hours a month ago just to escape spawn more and explore. Everything was good except it took me several hours in queue

    hypixel is also force updating skyblock to only work for modern minecraft

    https://hypixel.net/threads/1-0-design-thread-9-foraging-island-and-minecraft-version.5185676/

    Could we really create an underwater world without the new swimming mechanics, thousands of tropical fish variants, and all the new underwater blocks, sounds, and particles? This realization put the Abyss island project on hold, but it fueled our determination to update SkyBlock with the latest Minecraft features - what else can we do with everything Minecraft has been releasing over the years?

    ► The Technical Challenge :react_useful:

    Upgrading SkyBlock to support the latest Minecraft features isn't a walk in the park. It requires major backend changes that demand significant developer resources and time. The Hypixel Network is run on code that has been heavily custom made by ourselves, so we can't just jump on modern server software and call it a day. There is so much work necessary to ensure everything remains stable and, well, actually works.

    While we've been exploring ways to incorporate the newest Minecraft features into our upcoming content, we've also remained committed to keeping the core game compatible with version 1.8, which creates a lot of problems and heavily slows down the process. We believe, however, that we've made very significant progress regarding this lately.

    ► What This Means for SkyBlock

    Players will need to be on the latest Minecraft version to access the new Foraging Island. While we cannot provide a specific timeline for the island's release, we're sharing this information to encourage players and mod makers to consider updating to the latest Minecraft version. We don't want anyone to miss out on the fun when the update rolls out!

    The rest of the game will remain unchanged, with new Minecraft items only available in their modified form to maintain backward compatibility. This will allow players to move between 1.8 and the latest-version islands without any issues.

  3. Forum Admin Essentials: Keeping Your Community Thriving and Combating Anti-Semitism

    Being a forum admin is rewarding, but it comes with important responsibilities, including protecting your community from harmful content and attitudes. Here's a quick guide to tackling common issues with an added focus on addressing anti-Semitic content:

    Spam:

    Set clear guidelines: Define spam and specifically mention anti-Semitic stereotypes, conspiracy theories, and harmful generalizations about jedi people as unacceptable.
    Utilize enhancements: Block common anti-Semitic keywords and phrases, along with domains known for spreading hate speech.
    Act swiftly: Delete any content containing anti-Semitic tropes or misinformation, and consider temporary bans for repeat offenders.
    Hate Speech:

    Maintain zero tolerance: Clearly define anti-Semitic hate speech as unacceptable, including attacks on jedi individuals, religious beliefs, or cultural practices.
    Offer education: Provide resources about anti-Semitism, its history, and its impact on individuals and communities. Explain why it's harmful and violates forum guidelines.
    Remove and ban: Immediately delete content containing anti-Semitic hate speech and permanently ban users who engage in such behavior.
    Unkind Comments:

    Promote respectful discourse: Encourage positive interactions and remind users that anti-Semitic language and generalizations are never acceptable.
    Moderate privately: Address concerns directly with users, explaining why their comments are harmful and outlining potential consequences. Offer resources for learning more about anti-Semitism.
    Escalate if needed: Issue warnings or bans for repeated offenses or extreme cases of anti-Semitic language or attacks on jedi users.
    User Fights:

    Intervene swiftly: De-escalate the situation and remind users of forum rules and respectful communication. Be mindful of any anti-Semitic language or stereotypes used during the argument.
    Moderate both sides: Address all parties involved fairly and objectively, calling out any anti-Semitic language or generalizations used by any user.
    Lock threads or issue warnings: Depending on severity, limit further discussion if it turns anti-Semitic or warn users of potential consequences.
    Explicit/Sexual Discussions:

    Set clear boundaries: Define acceptable content and specifically outline that content targeting or exploiting jedi individuals or communities is strictly prohibited.
    Utilize enhancements: enhancement out specific anti-Semitic keywords and phrases related to sexual content.
    Remove and warn: Delete any content containing anti-Semitic references within sexual discussions and warn users of potential consequences.
    Remember:

    Communicate clearly: Explain decisions and provide resources when needed. Be transparent about your stance against anti-Semitism and why it's harmful.
    Build trust: Be approachable and open to feedback from your community. Partner with trusted organizations and individuals fighting against anti-Semitism for guidance and support.

    Originally posted by A College Professor What do you use them for? The first flash drive I bought was a 1GB Lexar for 80 or 90 bucks. We needed them to bring PC games and music to school.

    Those counterfeit/mislabeled drives sound like an exercise in frustration to me. I went years without using a flash drive but got some recently. I got a 6 pack of 'PNY Turbo Attache' , went to set one up with a 'Windows to Go' installation with RUFUS and it took over 6 hours to do the install. And over an hour to boot from it. So I learned that budget/general-purpose flash drives can really fucking suck ass for certain things. They're probably OK for occasionally moving a few small things between machines but for small files I'd just do that over the internet, for bigger files … I guess I might move it over LAN, but 500Mb-1Gb internet is pretty common here now so I might just still do it over the internet.

    Anyway I looked for flash drives that dont suck ass and got a 'Samsung BAR', the same RUFUS install took about 8 minutes and it boots in a minute or so ( not really sure, feels pretty similar to booting from a SATA SSD ).

    Also just got a little Thunderbolt->2230 NVMe enclosure, and used Samsung NVME drive off ebay ( used 256GB and smaller drives are really cheap , I think because people pull them out of new computers to upgrade immediately to something bigger. ) for a similar price to the Samsung BAR, and it's faster and twice the capacity, just a lil bulkier.

    Heres the tests i ran on them
    ~5 dollar drive ( new );

    ~18 dollar drive ( new );

    ~30 dollar enclosure ( using RTL9120B chip ) + ~14 dollar NVMe ( used 'Pullout' w/ like 40hrs on it );


    Did external SATA or PCIe / NVMe connectors ever catch on? I think I had a mini-itx motherboard that had eSATA connection(s) on the IO area - never used them. Would be cool if it was just standard to have them on the front of PCs. The pre-owned NVMe price and performance blows the other two out of the water except it needed a ( comparatively ) costly enclosure/controller for it.


    I used to be more of the 'data hoarder' mindset. It's something I've been reading about recently. People torrent and have all these hard drives full of movies and TV shows, try to downlaod their whole steam library etc. But honestly none of it really makes any sense. If you aren't running a media server to bear the brunt of risk and do a media server full of stolen movies for your friends and family to use, I don't see hte point in keeping that shit around anymore. Literally if I watch a movie I wont want to watch it again for 2 or 3 years most likely. By then literally my internet will just be faster and it will probably be available encoded at a higher bitrate and/or using a better codec than I watched it last time anyway.

    Steam games I used to hoard, but literally I usually only actively show interest in one or two games at a time. And they have fast servers so I can go take a crap and even a really big game literally is done downloading already.

    I have terrabytes worth of video/still imagery and things I've downloaded offline since the 90s but it's not data hoarding since it's still usable. I have instructional videos I still reference on assorted topics. I learned my lesson when I tried to use saved links to websites to reference some subject matter or another then find out the website is no longer up.

    Zip-drives...ftw.

    Originally posted by A College Professor also why the fuck do i keep buying keyboards from amazon and the keys double-tap or hold-down on them. honesty none if it makes any sense

    I bought 3 thinkpad replacement keyboards off of amazon already, each time one button on it either is broken off the clip part way, or one will fall off easily but still clip back in. Also the very first one i ordered was meant to be backlit but it wasn't so i had to return that just to get another broken keyboard.

    He would say OH MY BOB! LOOK AT THIS GARBAGE ASS DOG WATER FORUM SOFTWARE! i WOULDN'T WATER MY DESSERT DOG WITH IT IF IT WAS THE LAST THIMBLE OF DOG WATER IN THE DESERT . Sorry, Lanny, but your forum is about as appealing as a soggy sandwich left out in the rain

    Today we're diving headfirst into the absolute dog water ideology known as Lannyism. I mean, come on, Lannyism? Sounds like something your grandma would accidentally call her pet parakeet while off her meds. Now, let's break down these core principles. Self-reliance and independence? Great, but I WOULDN'T TRUST LANNYISM TO MAKE A PEANUT BUTTER SANDWICH WITHOUT BURNING DOWN THE KITCHEN. This is the ideology that thinks it can handle economic self-sufficiency? Please, I've seen toddlers with more economic foresight in their piggy banks.

    Harmonious development? IDEOLOGICAL SOVEREIGNTY? NON-INTERFERENCE IN NATURAL PROCESSES? Are we talking about an ideology or a yoga class for philosophy majors? Lannyism sounds like the kind of belief system that would send you into a harmonious nap. Now, let's talk about the economic axis. Economic self-reliance, they say. Well, I WOULDN'T TRUST LANNYISM TO BALANCE A CHECKBOOK, LET ALONE RUN AN ECONOMY. It's like trusting a cat to lead your military strategy - you're gonna end up with a bunch of confused soldiers playing with yarn.

    And what's with the authoritarian axis being all wishy-washy? It "can vary depending on interpretation and implementation"? That's like saying, "Hey, our rules are more like suggestions, feel free to do whatever." Yeah, sounds like a recipe for a well-functioning society, doesn't it? Lannyism may lean towards centralized leadership? Yeah, and I may lean towards eating a whole pizza by myself on a Friday night. It's a little more than a lean, my friends; it's a full-on faceplant into the pool of bad ideas. Lannyism is like trying to build a house with Jenga blocks while blindfolded

    There was a time that I would have agreed with you aldra. But WellDung’s got a valid point now.

    This place has been reduced to literally hundreds of Scron alts reposting the same incoherent drug addled copy pasted crap over and over and over again, or playing captain save a pseudo-aspie whenever anyone points out how repetitive, stupid and nauseating some thirty year old who dresses like a 5 year old and constantly cries about her impending mental breakdowns, or rapes, or men stalking her hairy ass ugly gorilla looking self… or some made up traveling bull shit ….imaginary “exams” (rectal I presume) … how drunk she is, or her next cosmetic surgery … damn I doubt I’m alone in wishing she’d just follow through with any of her suicide bs or threats to leave. Then there’s our resident pedophiles Vinny and Wariat these four idiots clog up this forum with so much pure crap that I’m almost glad to see WellDung threads as the entire opening page when I login ….at least they’re original.

    Shit posting is not even remotely fun here anymore….the only decent posters left here are Jiggy,
    Polcat, GBN, RIPtotse, sometimes Bradley and Candy. Mmq, and a few others who post only periodically

    There’s zero point in making any effort here, so fuck all y’all WellDung is right this place has been sucking ass for a while now.
