Frame Data, Moveset Choices and Proactive Play in Legends Z-A

Vine Whip would traditionally be a poor choice for Florges since it's a weak physical move on a Special Attacker.

But fast startup and recovery makes it an incredible feint to bait Protects and punish before another attack can come out.

Dragonite artwork, it's flying on top of clouds and mountains and softly colored. Painting of a Mega Dragonite soaring the skies. It's seen from behind and slightly from below, spreading the four of it's wings in different directions. The colors are lighter than the original design, with an overall pastel color palette focused mostly on light yellow and blue. Drawing of an Ampharos standing on a grass field. It's dusk and the sun is almost out. Ampharos looks back to the sun, now being illuminated by it's own lights. Artwork Sakura from Wind Breaker, he's standing in front of a wall, looking at the camera, with the top of his body being on the shadow

We’re deeply saddened by the passing of Jim Ward, the unforgettable voice of Tybalt Leftpaw and other characters in Guild Wars 2. His warmth and talent brought Tybalt to life and into our hearts. We’re grateful for his work and his legacy in Tyria. Thank you, Jim.

Really loving the replies on that “Gen Z likes old tech” story along the lines of “Windows 98 was the peak of Windows”. It bluescreened so often there was a way to make Windows try to keep hobbling along post-BSOD. Win98 wasn’t great! Your nostalgia is lying to you!

Clouds got in the way last night. But here is a 4 panel mosaic of M31. 60 sub-frames in each panel for a total exposure time of 20 hours. I’m still working on the processing because of the huge dynamic range of the source. I may share another take down the road. #astrophotography

As we speak, big tech is hoarding masses of GPUs, and by extension, masses of depreciating assets that will without fail lead to a massive impairment loss, which will come directly out of their earnings, and when they’ve spent tens or hundreds of billions of dollars on GPUs, these impairments will be extremely harsh, and come directly out of earnings. So, on top of spending hundreds of billions of dollars in capital expenditures, big tech is also conjuring a giant anvil above their heads. GPUs start losing value the moment you buy them, and by purchasing hundreds of billions of expensive, ever-rotting assets, big tech guarantees their revenues will take a hit sometime in the future, and likely multiple times as each generation ages. Let me put it in really simple terms, and use a hypothetical example. Ten companies bought $10bn of GPUs each to sell AI services, each requiring billions of dollars of data center infrastructure to go on top of them to make them run. As a result, one of the companies — let’s call them BallWeave — has had to take on an absolute shit ton of debt to buy them. BallWeave eventually runs into solvency issues, and has to start selling off masses of GPUs, massively reducing the market value of these GPUs by 30%. This causes the other 9 companies to have to take an immediate impairment — a $3bn haircut directly off of their balance sheet. There is no spreading it out. This is a problem, in part because $3bn is a lot of money, and in part because that’s more than the revenue being generated from AI. The impairment has an immediate negative effect on their assets, while also directly eating into their income, because this shit is almost certainly being financed. This hypothetical scenario is quite real, and it can hurt you, and will hurt any and all companies buying masses of GPUs. One last thing: Remember how I said that there are many ways to calculate depreciation over the useful lifetime of an object? Well, the depreciation rate is always the difference between the initial value of the item and its salvage value — which means how much a company can expect to make when they dispose of the item, either by reselling it or literally scrapping it for parts. So, for the sake of illustration, if a GPU costs $50,000 and has a useful life of five years, after which it has a nominal salvage value of $10,000, the amount said company could mark down as depreciation over that lifespan is $40,000. This is simply me talking out loud, but I worry that there’s no real way to accurately predict what that salvage value of an enterprise GPU will be. It’s contingent on a bunch of factors — namely, how long these cards last in real-world conditions, where they’re experiencing near-constant utilization, as well the pace and the quality of Nvidia’s future releases. It’s bad, and only compounds the fact that they’ve already created a giant, ugly, unsustainable hole on top of their earnings.
