Its fake , bioware tweeted it , also it was on 4chan ..........

Of course they denied it was real. You really think they are going to admit that one of their ex employees leaked their future plans for dlc and games?

Now I'm not saying it's real but it's surprising people would actually just take the word of bioware as true.

If it wasn't fake I think their reply would be "No comment" rather than "Fake" given the situation they are in.

I must say, the ending did not make much sense to me.

The catalyst says he does it to stop Synthetics destroying Organics or something along those lines. So to stop the synthetics destroying organics, he gets Synthetics to destroy organics. He is in essence, the cause of his own problem? I honestly thought that was some sort of writing error at first, it just did not make any sense to me. Add to that, it's a ridiculously stupid excuse that doesn't actually explain much anyway, other than the catalyst just saying what basically amounts too "because". Well that's a great explanation .__.

Does anyone know how to

keep Tali alive?  I am on my 2nd play thru and she keeps dying by committing suicide.   first play thru she lived.  I know Mordin just dies as well as thane and there are no options (I am pretty sure) to keep them alive.  But I know Tali can be saved.

Stop legion from uploading. The only other option is to play straight paragon and save both of them. That or it has something to do with saving both commanders.

If you made the right decisions in me2 and me3, and have a high enough reputation you can have legion upload the data, and stop the quarians from attacking creating peace.

If not you need to have him stop the upload for tali to survive. If you do this legion dies instead.

Stop the uploading code.

Or

Not exactly. I figured it out. Yyou must have killed the heretics in ME2, prevented Tali from dying or becoming exiled in ME2, and a few decisions in ME3. Also, as I found out, the last mission you do on rannoch is Destroy the Reaper Base. If this is not the LAST mission you do on rannoch, then Tali will die. I made the mistake of doing the mission Destroy Geth Server last.

So Tali is alive, Quarian fleet saved, Legion dies regardless, and both Quarians and Geth working together. Geth invite the Quarians back to rannoch so now the Quarians are settling back on their home planet. Tali joins your squad. She is located in the engine room.

Anyway, Legion always dies as well as Thane. Also, either Mordin or Rex will die but you choose which. Mordin will die if you reveal the sabotage and Rex will end if getting ****ed if Shepard lies to him and Shepard has to put him down.

Read what I said in my post before this one.. My results were different since I did things correctly in ME2 and ME3.

Legion will die no matter what. Thane also dies because of main story line association. I believe Wrex can live, in both my playthroughs, he lived and Mordin died

Yup, depends what decision you make during the last mission to cure the Krogan on who dies...Mordin or Wrex

. Never liked Mordin...he was annoying.

It's not explained very well.

They don't destroy all the organics, they harvest the ones that have advanced enough to create AI/Synthetics and turn them into Reapers to "ascend" them to stop them advancing so far so they don't create synthetics that have the potential to become more than the creator which the reapers/catalyst prophecises will wipe out organics if left unchecked.

They leave the non-advanced civilizations alone, as the catalyst explained that they left the humans alone in the cycle before because they weren't advanced enough as to pose a threat to the universe.

Thus they are on a never ending cycle of every 50,000 years coming back and harvesting the civilizations that are too advanced, only this time they didn't factor in the human element, no other cycle has completed the crucible or met the catalyst.

    • Amazon eero Pro 6E mesh Wi-Fi system 2-pack is 27% off

      By Ivan Jenic · Posted

      Amazon eero Pro 6E mesh Wi-Fi system 2-pack is 27% off by Ivan Jenic The Amazon eero Pro 6E mesh Wi-Fi system is currently $239.99 on Amazon for the 2-pack, down from $329.99. That's 27% off and $90 saved for a solid Wi-Fi solution that covers your entire home (purchase link down below). The 2-pack covers up to 4,000 square feet (372 square meters) and supports 100+ connected devices, which handles the vast majority of home setups without breaking a sweat. Wi-Fi 6E brings access to the 6 GHz band for lower latency across the network, and the 2.5 Gb Ethernet port supports gigabit+ internet plans if your ISP offers them. eero's TrueMesh technology handles traffic routing automatically, so you're not manually managing which devices connect to which node. You set up the entire thing through the eero app, and the entire process takes a few minutes. The system also receives automatic security updates in the background, so once you set it up, you don't have to worry about compatibility issues. If you're covering a larger home or want more nodes, the 3-pack is $329.99 and the 4-pack is $479.98, both at similar discount levels. It's worth mentioning that a newer model exists, which is likely the reason for the discount, but the Pro 6E is still perfectly capable hardware for most homes.

    • Ladybird Browser is no longer accepting outside contributions thanks to AI

      By David Uzondu · Posted

      Ladybird Browser is no longer accepting outside contributions thanks to AI by David Uzondu The Ladybird Browser Project has announced it will no longer accept public pull requests and will limit changes to those made by its maintainers as it works towards its first alpha release. According to Ladybird's creator Andreas Kling, this is "not a change we make lightly," but the rapid shift in AI capabilities forced their hand. Previously, a massive PR implied that the person behind it put a lot of care into the code and is ready to "answer for the consequences." Now with AI, anyone can generate a PR without even understanding the bug fix or feature they want merged. The blog post goes on to say that the team is closing all open public pull requests immediately, and that maintainers will not treat external forks as a review queue for upstream Ladybird. Instead, the team wants outside contributors to focus on reporting bugs and running tests. Kling started Ladybird back in 2019 as LibHTML, a simple HTML viewer for his hobby operating system, SerenityOS, but by September 2022, it had turned into a full-fledged browser project. What sets Ladybird apart from the likes of Google Chrome, Apple Safari, or Mozilla Firefox is its totally independent engine, which does not rely on pre-existing codebases. The project maintains a strict policy against default search engine deals or user data monetization, keeping development funded entirely by donations and sponsorships. Generative AI is forcing open source project maintainers to rethink how they handle public code contributions (and the whole open-source thing in general). One month ago, a leak about the National Health Service (NHS) suggested the organization was planning to take all of its public repositories private ahead of a May 11 deadline, thanks to Mythos (an AI model that Anthropic believes is too dangerous to be released to the public) and its ability to find and write exploits for zero-day vulnerabilities. Thankfully, the Government Digital Service (GDS) issued a counter-report titled "AI, open code and vulnerability risk in the public sector" that stopped the shutdown by pointing out that hiding code does not improve security.

    • Microsoft is making Windows 11's context menus faster, simpler, and configurable

      By duhk · Posted

      I like the show more options. The only problem with it is that it's not always in a consistent spot in the menu. If the copy/paste/cut, happens to show on top, then more option is the last in the menu. But if copy/paste/cut happens to show on the bottom, then more options is before the copy/paste/cut. But I do like the more options because it hides the stuff that I rarely use. But I would like to choose what it is or isn't hiding. That would make it better.
