The Gerard Show

Welcome Gerards! We argue about stuff and play video games. Now we mostly post memes. Watch us...

@AndrewCGower oh and multiple screens open at the same time would be awesome, while doing chef I want to see where i'm going while looking at where all my bounties are

[The Gerard Show @thegerardshow]

@AndrewCGower honestly, loving the game, please consider adding a master volume setting?

[The Gerard Show @thegerardshow]

@JagexAsh bizzare question, I'm trying to do Twilight's Promise at a pretty low level... what's up with the Knight of Varlamore? I can't seem to cast Wind Strike at it? Is this some edgecase programmed in lol

[The Gerard Show @thegerardshow]

@PhD_Pirrone How the fuck is shisui so high???

[The Gerard Show @thegerardshow]

@jabes2019 @PhD_Pirrone I seriously think he has dirt on someone in the org or something

@JUNlPER Who would pay for Spotify and apple music? Do people really do that?

[The Gerard Show @thegerardshow]

@CincysGodfather @RuneScape If you want to criticize a gaming company, go right ahead Jagex has made bone head moves. But criticizing them for not having 100% uptime is pretty silly

[The Gerard Show @thegerardshow]

@CincysGodfather @RuneScape Scale is an industry problem that people get paid big bucks to solve, and even still companies like Amazon see service disruptions, especially as more bad actors fight to dos providers creating a scaling arms race

[The Gerard Show @thegerardshow]

@CincysGodfather @RuneScape Scaling a software solution is a moving target. One day you may only require connectivity for a few hundred at a time, then a few thousand, then tens of thousands

[The Gerard Show @thegerardshow]

@CincysGodfather @RuneScape You can make an argument "perhaps" they haven't hired enough people to have stability be good enough. But quickly redoing existing architecture can actually lead to higher unstability

[The Gerard Show @thegerardshow]

@CincysGodfather @RuneScape Again, the content development cannot help with stability. Telling them to do zero content until "the issue is resolved" won't speed the stability, it will just have content developers sitting doing nothing. Stability engineers are totally separate from them.

[The Gerard Show @thegerardshow]

@OldSchoolRS I'm assuming that because I can't access the website or the launcher jagex just got dos'd lol

[The Gerard Show @thegerardshow]

@PhD_Pirrone So everyone profits? Even the investors?

[The Gerard Show @thegerardshow]

@HarstemSc2 Oh god I found it. Prize pool gutted. First two rounds online. No super tournaments. RIP GSL

[The Gerard Show @thegerardshow]
