Just a FYI for you people out there wondering about death knights, here is what they can do. ^_^ its me tanking in the beta.

Didn't watch video, but could you PM me and tell me what happened at the end of that episode? My tivo stop recording right when he hired her back. :(

I swear i'm cursed..

Every guild run or partial guild i've been in this week has bombed out due to retardiness or lag..

yet people who have PUG'd have successfully done it..

only thing i got left unsaved is kara this week..

should i pug or take a chance if the guild runs? hmm

I was in the same boat last week. 3 toons stuck and saved in a 10man or a 25man. BLIZZ needs to fix this @$%#$%^

I think the problem lies in who makes up your guild.

You see.. a lot of guilds are nothing more than a group of people who are all collectively stuck at the same place. When you attempt things with your guild there may be the anticipation of failure from any numbers of people that have proven unreliable in the past.. therefore the overall effort may suffer. In a pug you may know 5-10 players or heard of them at least. If a player in a pug fails they are replaced.

I wouldn't get discouraged about raiding in either situation.. raiding with a guild is more comfortable and usually more fun but downing a boss is downing a boss is downing a boss.

very insightful. you just described the guild i was in perfectly.

well ever since the patch we've been running unscheduled raids ..

our server's been lagging to death.. literally

people are just getting burnt out and tired of the BS mostly of blizzard

we have a good 15 - 20 core people who log in during the week and want to raid something

While the official ruling is that you can't get the title any more, if you are on certain stages of the quest chain it's still possible.

Example: If you'd completed the BT attunement chain, but hadn't completed the Hyjal attunement you can still get the title provided you had the quest in your log already. They way no-title-for-you was implemented was by adding duplicate quests with identical rewards/text/etc. that all the NPCs now give out. They won't give out the old ones, but there is some speculation that if you have somebody share them you can still sneak your way into a title.

All the same: grats.

So if your like myself , have the Q in your log and have Vashj`s vial but no Kael`s. If i go kill Kael as were planning on saturday, then I should be able to get my title?

I had the quest for months, and completed it last night. No Title for me

I didn't get it either when I turned in the vial quest. Once I get my Medallion of Kablar(sp?) it gave me the title. Finish that chain if you haven't already.

I had to talk to the guy in SSC when patch hit, after patch hit I talked to him, turned all that in, killed Rage, turned that in watch Maive kick ass and turned it in and got the title.

That makes sense.

The title was for completing the BT attunement chain which required Hyjal attunement.

Well he died tonight. I didn't bother attending any of the raids due to drama and bull****. Think with WOTLK coming time to find a new guild, and continue to run from drama. Or maybe just get some friends and see if they'll do an alt 10 man guild or something, as to continue to see content in the expansion but avoid bull**** drama.

I'm loving the Invasion event, but I swear I've never seen so much whining and crying in my life.

Must have missed the entire BC qq's about everything to get nerfed to a welfare state. :(

I think the invasion event sucks so much ass it couldn't possibly suck more ass even if it tried.

It does. So annoying, can't even turn in quests (i need that do a daily 5 days in a row and the nagrand guy is so easy and quick to do), can't land or take portals anywhere because of insta-infected-ness. This is by far the most annoying and worst event I've seen by Blizz.

The event is ok..

its something different..

I kinda find it annoying but its more of an inconvenience

I don't mind the durability damage or anything I can afford that, I have some fun with though and turn into a zombie in Stormwind and explode.. i use all the cooldowns first too :p

You guys who hate the zombie event obviously need to take a break from WoW because most people are loving it as the queue times on the server can show. It's just a game so try to have a little fun because this is what us casuals have always wanted from the game. You hardcore grinders are going to ruin it for everyone else so that Blizzard never does anything like this again.

Not being to turn in a quest for easy gold is fun? Not being able to take a FP out of the city is fun? Not being able to take a portal from Shatt to IF, because zombies wait on the other side is fun? Not being able to use the AH is fun? Man you have a twisted since of fun, unless of course your only goal is to annoy others at which point you are ruining the game more than those "hardcore" people you so quickly accuse.

    • Turbo Pascal was my first real programming experience more than 30 years ago at university. I mostly taught myself from the included examples and help documentation, because the university only taught the basic syntax and philosophy of Pascal, without going deeply into Turbo Pascal’s advanced features. I still remember when I discovered that I could embed assembly language directly into Pascal code, call BIOS functions, manipulate screen memory, use mouse interrupts, and control peripherals from my programs. That opened huge doors for me. Programming back then felt really fun, direct, and close to the machine. What I loved about Pascal was its readability and the almost instant compile time. Turbo Pascal was an amazing environment, but unfortunately Turbo Pascal for Windows 3 did not feel like it fully carried that legacy forward. Later, Delphi got things back on the right track after the messy transition to TP for Windows. Sadly, Delphi suffered from years of uncertainty as it moved from Borland to CodeGear and then to Embarcadero. That instability made many developers lose confidence in it, even though Delphi itself remained a powerful and productive tool. I still work with Delphi from time to time, but I definitely miss the old days of Turbo Pascal.
    • I hope this encodes in to AV1 or AV2 as currently tiktok uses h265 and h264.
    • Qualcomm reportedly in talks to build custom video chips for TikTok parent ByteDance by Karthik Mudaliar Qualcomm is reportedly in advanced discussions to provide custom chip-design services to Chinese tech giant ByteDance, the same company behind TikTok. According to a report from Reuters, Qualcomm could be involved in designing custom silicon tailored for ByteDance's massive data-center workloads. If it goes through, the deal would make ByteDance one of Qualcomm's early anchor customers for its fastly growing custom chip-design division, For years, Qualcomm was the king of making smartphone processors and modems. The company has also been moving into the PC ecosystem and other formats such as on-device AI for Android XR headsets. However, this particular deal is about Qualcomm's custom Application-Specific Integrated Circuits (ASICs). For a platform like TikTok, ByteDance needs hardware that can help it ingest, process, and serve billions of short-form videos daily. Generalised hardware is no longer the most cost-effective and efficient route, which is why ByteDance is trying to develop custom Video Processing Units (VPUs). VPUs designed specifically for ByteDance’s algorithmic needs could drastically reduce data-center power consumption and improve encoding speeds at an unprecedented scale. The underlying tech behind these processors is actually from Qualcomm's recent acquisition of AlphaWave Semi, a high-speed connectivity specialist company. By combining AlphaWave’s high-bandwidth IP with Qualcomm’s architectural expertise, the company could begin mass production by the end of 2026, if the talks go through. All this also comes at a time when U.S.-China tech relations have dwindled. Escalating trade frictions between Washington and Beijing have severely impacted the export of high-end AI chips from U.S. firms like Nvidia, AMD, and Lam Research. Yet, the Qualcomm-ByteDance discussions show that U.S. tech companies are still actively seeking growth avenues and are open to doing business with China, where regulators still permit. Reuters notes that the outcome of this deal could be uncertain, and ByteDance might also seek partners other than Qualcomm. via Reuters | Image via DepositPhotos.com
