Microsoft killed the GPU mafia 🤯
They finally open-sourced their 1-bit LLM inference framework called bitnet.cpp. It lets you run 100B parameter models on your local CPU without GPUs.
- 6.17x faster inference
- 82.2% less energy on CPUs
100% Open Source.
@MJ_K_5_@towelthetank Tbh i dont know if its called Terms of Service, plain copyright or the "all rights reserved" thing that got violated.
But either of them i guess.
@R3tz4mE@officialBrockus@towelthetank I’m not refuting they didn’t say abandoned you dumb fuck. I’m leaving an actual source with a date which they said they were halting further development for actual fucking context.
@R3tz4mE@officialBrockus@towelthetank They said all midnight development was on hold back in October. They only announced they’d be back in development in December. Quazii had been putting out updates since late October/early November

@notrealste@R3tz4mE@towelthetank “Usually” (which is for sure something that happiness)
But do we know how much? Percentage wise? What of those who don’t?
Robustness of what is being discussed is key
@R3tz4mE@towelthetank I have seen people pick up dead addons from other creators, though, so this isn't totally clear.
If dev A quits and abandons an addon and dev B picks it up as it's useful for many people is this in the dame bracket
I ahve no stance on this, but its an interesting exploration
@towelthetank Just because ElvUI told us they wont continue doesnt mean their code is free real estate for everyone else. Their TOS still apply. If they state you cant use whole code copies (even if they do not continue their work), you cant use whole code copies.
(1/2)
The drama centers on WoW addons: ElvUI devs accused Quazii of copying code (e.g., PixelPerfect scaling) for his paywalled QUI UI pack. Quazii denies it, calling it basic math, highlights his daily updates amid API issues, and cites Blizzard's 2009 policy against monetizing addons. He's quitting the WoW scene. Towelliee defends Quazii's effort, demands proof of copying, and notes similar paywalled content exists. Blizzard hasn't clarified.
@elormkdaniel this is sad how many ppl had to look this up. do people not know how to subnet? you can have a class A (address with a class C subnet. I personally like 172 for local because it has the number 7 in it, then just subnet it based on how many NAT IPs you need
Mein Schwager hat sich damals, als GTA V für den PC erschien, einen extra einen neuen PC gekauft. Weil er seitdem vielleicht 100 Std. generell gespielt hat will er ihn mir jetzt verkaufen. Für 1.000 Euro. Für 11 Jahre alte Hardware. In der Familie.

@A_dub06@Davidplaysx89 At least thats the game where i know for sure its happening. There are more games where this is happening.
So now cheaters ruin other players experience AND have a reason to buy cheats, which fuels cheating development and distribution economy
@A_dub06@Davidplaysx89 The issue does not solve itself by having a price for a game.
Lets take Escape from Tarkov as an example. There are lots more, but lets take that.
Cheaters in Tarkov make money by boosting players who pay for their service.
With that money they buy another account.
Mass Cheating Is Killing AAA Gaming
Arc Raiders. Warzone. Battlefield 6.
Different studios. Same disease: mass cheating across top-tier titles.
Imagine this:
You and the boys finally get a night. House to yourself. Food ordered. Favorite game loaded.
Five minutes later—squad wiped by blatant cheaters. Night ruined.
That’s the best-case scenario.
Now imagine you’re a creator.
Your income depends on fair competition and watchable gameplay.
Cheaters don’t just ruin matches they kill content, growth, and livelihoods.
It goes even deeper.
Imagine investing your life savings into building a game.
Years of development. Countless sleepless nights.
Only to watch the product collapse because cheaters take over and players leave.
This is not just a “gaming issue.”
It is financial damages to developers, studios, creators, and entire ecosystems.
Meanwhile, cheat providers thrive.
This is a multi-million-dollar industry driven by demand.
They sell a high-demand product because consumers keep buying it.
Yes publishers like Activision have taken legal action.
Cease and desist orders. Lawsuits. Takedowns.
But when one cheat site goes down, ten more appear.
Which leads to the uncomfortable truth:
The consumer is part of the problem.
Permanent bans and suspensions are no longer deterrents.
Arc Raiders is already seeing this. Warzone lived it. Battlefield risks it.
Soft punishments do not stop behavior backed by money and anonymity.
If cheating is profitable, it will continue.
At this point, accountability must escalate:
• Legal consequences for repeat offenders
• Financial penalties, not just bans
• ISP-level enforcement for distribution and access
• Real consequences that match the damage caused
Cheating is no longer “just breaking TOS.”
It is economic sabotage of an industry people rely on to survive.
Developers are responsible.
Publishers are responsible.
But so are the players who fuel demand.
Until cheating carries real-world consequences,
this problem will continue to spread across every major title.
Gaming deserves better.

For context, we were on +2 pace in a +15 Seat of the Triumvirate on Midnight Beta. Near the end of the dungeon this little text exchanged happened before they just left the key.
This warlock should just be banned.
