The Dragon Age Fandom’s New Favourite Charming Slaver

There is nothing wrong with appreciating and enjoying villainous characters, especially when they are done so well. Everything about Rezaren Ammosine makes a him a remarkable and fascinating villain. He’s very intelligently depicted; all aspects of his character matter to how he presents in the story. His design is that of a handsome young white man. He is animated with a graceful and gentle flow, not just in how he casts spells but literally how he carries himself. His voice has a soft and soothing tone, and he uses that soft tone as part of his powerful charisma and sway he has over the people around him, like Tassia. In fact, Rezaren uses all of these characteristics for his benefit. Because just like in real life, abusers do not always wear “I’m a shithead” signs on their chest. To the outside world, they are charming and gentle people who couldn’t possibly hurt a fly, could they? But make no mistake. Rezaren Ammosine is a villain to his core. And treating him as anything other than a villain is a grossly disrespectful interpretation to fans of colour, given the nature of his villainy.

From his very introduction, we see that Rezaren is used to getting his way, and becomes easily frustrated and angered when his will is denied. When he summons a spirit of memory to interrogate about the circulum’s creation, the spirit warns him that answering too much would be unwise. Rezaren ignores these warnings and orders the spirit to continue, to the brink of turning the spirit into a pride demon. This is called back into further example when Miriam refuses his plans for her. Again, he becomes easily angered and physically lashes out, using his magic to flare up the pain in her wound. Then to solidify the power he has over her, says “You live because I will it.”

Rezaren explains to Tassia, “Her name is Miriam. She's my sister. My mother owned her. She was to be my personal spy, assassin. Whatever was needed. My left hand, as it were. But she raised us as siblings.” Except we see how Miriam and Neb were really raised in flashbacks. We see how they were beaten for Rezaren simply tripping while playing with them. We see how they were forced to do hard labour, and told they were not allowed to own anything. And we see how Rezaren’s mother sacrificed Neb so that Rezaren would not become an abomination during his Harrowing, sending the demon into Neb’s body instead. And that raising has obviously shaped how Rezaren views this so-called siblinghood, because while he may call Neb and Miriam his brother and sister, make no mistake, he still views them belonging to him. Rezaren has no respect for their autonomy. Even in death, he defiles Neb’s body by using blood magic to put a demon inside it and controlling him. And Miriam? He cannot bare to accept that she refuses to submit to slavery again, no matter how pretty a picture he paints of them being like family. But you don’t own a sibling. “Selfish bitch! You and your ungrateful brother. You were mine!” he shouts at the very end, before Miriam fatally stabs him.

So, Rezaren is a villainous slaver. Why is it, then, that people are writing reviews praising his character while calling Miriam and her party the real baddies? Why are people saying he “deserved” a redemption arc? The only assumption I can come to is simply that people are so not used to the white guy being the one to lose in the fantasy genre, that they’re willing to bend over backwards to try and paint the only white person in the show as a victim of the #mean brown woman. Think about it. How many stories are out there where the hero is a white man? White people are conditioned to always be the centre of attention, so when they’re not for a change, they need to seek it out by shining a spotlight on whatever white man they can find. This is of course nothing unique to the Dragon Age fandom, but rather a disease found in fandom spaces as a whole. Hell, look at the Star Wars sequels, and how the bizarre love for and babygirlification of Kylo Ren was so strong it led to ruining the second and third films. This is why it’s such a relief to me that Rezaren dies in the end of Absolution, because otherwise it would truly end up a fear to me that the writers would try the same with him.

When you’re pushing Rezaren into the spotlight, you are pushing Miriam out of it. And Miriam is such a treasure of a character, it’s a crying shame to see her get so much disrespect. I have nothing against people who like Rezaren, but if your like for him goes to the extent of putting down Miriam in order to put him up, then we have a problem.

[druidshollow]

These are all just Dune's group? Even without the unwavering bloodlust I can see why she needed to kill so many to actually get the cores for her group. There's a rainbow of them.

i actually forgot one too their name is nine arrows i think????? yeah she has a lot of siblings lmao. theres quite a few little cliques, like dunes in with everyone but her favourites are space and whimsy. drum and dance are close and strive, tree and neb are best friends. compass is liked by basically everyone and root is liked by nobody lmao. i think space, neb and sound would be decent to him but everyone else is securely on the root hate train that dune started

these guys are so stupid and weird. the civilizing divides global communications are shotty and disfunctional so theyre kinda stuck in this bubble with eachother. theres a lot of petty arguing and dumb drama. mostly thanks to dune of course

[1296-very-good-year]

SPOILERY thoughts on da absolution:

Mostly enjoyed, but the core dynamic in the show between Miriam/Neb/Rezaren was lacking a lot of juicy context for me.

I get why there wasn’t more - 6 half-hour episodes to reintroduce an established world with new characters and stakes and make us invested and tell a complete story? I do not envy the writers - but IMO the finale/resurrection would have hit a lot harder with just a little more time devoted to their backstory bc:

I would have felt more during Neb’s goodbye to Miriam if we had, you know... heard him speak before that moment.

We saw nothing of Miriam and Neb’s relationship. He served as a mirror for Miriam rather than a character. He was the voiceless, dead version of her that she would have become if she had remained a slave. Which is cool in its own way and adds an extra layer of creepiness to how Rezaren talks to his body, but sibling dynamics are my jam and I felt its absence :(

Rezaren’s obsession with bringing Neb and Miriam back could have been way more compelling if we saw more of their childhood! Did the twins ever love him as a brother too? It’s never addressed. For all we know it was entirely one-sided which is ALWAYS the less interesting option (give me the conflicted fucked up feelings!). Did Rezaren hate his mom as much as the twins did? There are suggestions peppered around that he did, but that’s it. Having that confirmed would have done wonders to emphasize his isolation bc he could never truly be close with the twins either.

Obviously that is all unnecessary to the story they decided to tell bc they had Rezaren take off a mask and reveal that he was just entitled garbage underneath. I’m curious if there was a longer version of the story that got hacked way down where that doesn't happen (or happen as quickly).

More important missing context:

So stay with me here. We first see Miriam seething and wanting to kill Rezaren as soon as she hears him, so you’re thinking “Oh wow! He must have done terrible things to her while she was a slave! She says he killed her family! That’s shitty!” And then... the only justification Miriam gives for hating Rezaren (before his big reveal) is that he “failed to protect” her and Neb during the harrowing, and she blames him for Neb’s death. But like... that’s not even a good reason?? He didn’t do anything malicious there at all, he just failed a ritual. Rezaren’s mom was the one to kill Neb and he wasn’t in a position to stop her.

For all we are shown, Miriam falsely associated Rezaren’s actions with those of his mother. WHY give the hero a misplaced justification to hate the villain when you’re just going to prove him to be a monster by the next scene anyway? 

Basically, Miriam’s hatred implies that Rezaren was complicit in her slavery growing up but we don’t actually learn about it. I think seeing him turn a blind eye to the abuse of slaves or participating in it in some way in present day or a flashback (outside of him being a child witnessing it) would have better clued us in that he wasn’t the charming josh keaton voiced soft boi he pretended to be before making the turn from (paraphrased) “You’re my sister” to “You’re my property” a couple lines apart.

Anyway I don't hate how it was all handled I just can't help wishing for more... family drama? Instead of simple and uncomplicated master/slave drama

[sunset-a-story]

Happy blorbo blursday! I've been thinking about how Neb and Oran's "love language" is coming up with mildly irritating nicknames for people (such as calling Isabel "The Great-Aunt" even though they have at least four other great-aunts). Do any of your characters have strange or goofy ways of showing affection? Or, conversely, do you have any characters that also like to give people (annoying) nicknames?

~ @void-botanist

Thanks for the ask, Rose! I'm not sure the core cast's love languages are all that strange.

Gareth: stepping between you and harm

Hannah: calling you out when when you fuck up, making up silly songs about you

Reeve: cooking for you, putting your needs before his own

But! Marek LOVES to give nicknames to Neptune's head of Cleanup, Penn Harris. Here are a few:

Penn Station

Penne Pasta

Pennbrooke Corgi

Penntagram

Penn And Paper

Pennacillin

Penninsula

Penny For Your Thoughts

#calling Penn things like Pennile Dysfunction is not off the table but people have a habit of reminding Marek he works in HR when he does #Marek no #trying to catch up on asks #blorbsday

[themarginalthinker]

@roseate-lagomorph as there's too much info to just put in a reply on a post lol

Here is some of the romantic pairs and their relationships one can find in the Warren:

-Blue and Tweak are in....something of a relationship, though whether the two of them would categorize it as romantic if they were asked is. Well. Probably not? They do engage in ~*activities*~ and, without spoilering too much, there is a definite physical aspect to it, but it's more complicated than a romance. (As for whether they understand what Charlie says when she calls them 'kimessis'...well, Tweak does, and refuses to explain it to Blue, and laughs at his poor, non-homestuckian confusion.)

-Jen and Fenster: mlm, they're canonically married, rings and all, and have been for the better part of the 20th century. And even beyond that, they're more monogamous than most Kindred would be. For as much as they love to yell at each other, arguments one can hear halfway across the warren when they really get into it.

-Tanner, Neb, and Kink: two Nos and a ghoul between them. The three are pretty inseparable and have been together for a good while. Tanner might not say no to a one-night-stand, Kink is canonically a sex worker of various scenes and specialties, and Neb is a (willing) blood-doll for the pair who also does paid feeding work for Kindred in the city if they have the money or goods/info to trade. Always sold together do not separate them lol.

-Might not be a relationship other than a mentor/cool older aunt type deal, but Charlie has a crush on Bobbin, which, if she has it her way, the older Nos will NEVER hear about lmao.

-Charlie also has....something(tm) going on with Toreador fledgling Amber Glass. A lot like Tweak and Blue's 'relationship', but more like Amber suggests doing something utterly batshit, Charlie tells her how dumb a plan that is, inadvertently makes suggestions for how to do the Bad Plan better, and then tries to hold on as Amber does that bc now she's got Charlie Involved.

-Zephyr is aroace and would like you to ask before giving hugs, even if she usually accepts them, thank u.

Overall, these relationships are the most stable and long-lasting of what the characters are doing romantically/physically with other people, but they act more as the core of their romantic life, rather than the breath of it. Being a Kindred is a different experience than being Kine, and that means that their perception, both physically and mentally, of sex and love can shift a little. Especially when you live for centuries. All of them have their flings, one-night-stands, preferred feeding partners, preferred torpormates if any at all, preferred confidants and loved ones and clanmates. It's sort of understood that being with someone doesn't necessarily mean you're with them all the time, or that seeking other avenues of attention means you won't be loyal to your core.

Translation of Nitrocris Alter's in-game profile below the cut, courtesy of Petrikow on the Beast's Lair Forums. Everything was translated except for one section, which is locked behind LB7 completion.

Nitocris Alter (5* Avenger)

Parameters:

STR: D

CON: D

AGI: B

MGI: EX

LCK: EX

NP: A

Profile:

The Embodiment of Judgment

Even in her regular Saint Graph, Heroic Spirit Nitocris holds the facet of the "Fearsome Arbitrator of Divine Punishment" within herself, and when this manifests exceptionally strongly in her, she takes the form of this Alter Saint Graph.

Namely, the one akin to the freezing winds of the desert night: Nitocris Alter.

Rather than the Pharaoh who rules the netherworld despite being the incarnation of Sky God Horus, she is now the Pharaoh who inhabits the sky despite being the Queen of the Underworld, and the manifestation of Netherworld God Anubis.

She is impossible to summon in ordinary human history.

Profile B1:

Height/Weight: 162 cm / 51 kg

Source: Historical fact

Region: Egypt

Alignment: Chaotic Evil

Gender: Female

Her LCK stat is self-reported.

Profile B2:

On top of her Alteration, Nitocris has also become half Divine Spirit, and her heart is now calm as ice.

The intensity of Nitocris' hellfire-like fury has made her lose most of her emotions, and thus she acquired this calmness akin to ice.

No doubt can be observed in the Pharaoh who wears the name of judgment.

Her dignified form, which wavers not even in front of the other Egyptian Heroic Spirits, brings to mind a Pharaoh Nitocris who faced her tomorrow as a ruler instead of taking her own life.

With the formation of her Alter Saint Graph, Divine Spirit Anubis granted Nitocris vast divine protection.

While she hasn't formed a Divine Core, Nitocris Alter's anomalously high Divine Spirit Aptitude means she possesses magical energy on par with that of Divine Spirit Servants.

The reason her Saint Graph hasn't become an Aspect of Anubis with a Divine Core is possibly because the Pharaohs from the Sixth Dynasty of Egypt wished her not to...

Profile B3:

Mad Enhancement: E

Nitocris Alter does hold madness within her, but possesses more than enough reason to carry through with the same kind of premeditated crimes as the ones from her legend.

This Skill causes no defect in her ability to reason or communicate, and the effect it has on her stats is extremely minimal.

Ordinarily this is the Class Skill of Berserkers.

Heroic Spirit Nitocris is an avenger without vengefulness, and would ordinarily never be summoned as a genuine Avenger. However, if for some peculiar reason there was a situation in which she was established with an Alter Saint Graph, Nitocris would be able to be summoned as a unique Avenger possessing the Class Skills of a Berserker, but only then.

Profile B4:

Arbitration of the Netherworld God: A

A portion of Netherworld God Anubis' Authority made into a Skill.

According to the Book of the Dead, Anubis would measure the hearts of the dead, and arbitrate them depending on their deeds in life.

(Due to it being ranked down compared to Anubis' regular Authority, using it will not destroy her Spiritual Core)

Wind of the Desert Night: A

A variant on the Imperial Privilege Skill.

As the one akin to the fiercely blowing and freezing winds of the desert night, Nitocris rules the domain of the night.

Profile B5:

"My Beautiful Netherworld, Open your Passage"

Rank: A

Type: Anti-Personnel/Anti-Army Noble Phantasm

Range: 1-60

Maximum Targets: 1/200

Nefer Suen Anubis

The full might unleashed by Nitocris in her capacity as the earthly manifestation of the Netherworld God.

Nitocris manifests as a gigantic Aspect of Anubis, the God of the Netherworld and the Dead himself, bringing merciless arbitration and judgment upon the world (This Aspect is far more powerful than the Anubis statue that appears as the guardian of Anpu Neb Ta Djeser when Nitocris unleashes her true name in her regular Saint Graph).

When unleashing her true name, the same sacred letters as the ones from when she uses her Wind of the Desert Night Skill emerges.

These are perhaps the protection of the long line of Pharaohs from the Sixth Dynasty of Egypt who wish for the entirety of Nitocris' soul to not be consumed by the might of Anubis and his netherworld.

Bond Craft Essence:

Ammut

A Divine Beast of Ancient Egypt.

Nitocris summons and commands it during combat.

Rather than something alive, it is closer to a law or phenomenon which resides in the underworld. Its head likens a crocodile's.

When it reaches its maximum size, it's said to be far larger than even a sphinx.

"Contractor, contractor.

Would you convey the following to Pharaoh Ozymandias?

My Ammut is different from the gigantic unit he has stored within Ramesseum Tentyris.

Goodness, it would be such a bother if anyone were to get the wrong idea.

What?

I should go tell him directly... myself?

Listen to me here, my contractor.

I'm... you know... I'm a little busy.

Just a litte, but that doesn't change the fact that I'm busy.

I do not have the time to be dealing with such paltry matters.

There, now do make sure you convey my message.

I'm counting on you.

I really am, okay?"

Petrikow's Notes:

1: some may be familiar with what's been rendered here as "Aspect" as sometimes being "bunrei" (分霊). I don't like not translating things, so this is what I'm calling it.

2: there are two terms being used for the underworld here (冥府 and 冥界). I've translated the first as "Netherworld" and the second as "Underworld".

3: thanks for Atlas for being so fast at uploading all the DEETS

Iterators with cores in their puppets are generally quite... Bulky? Theyre larger in size and their casing is made of a denser, more durable material... Meaning they end up being quite heavy.

oh mein gott anyways defect cores my beloved <:333333

Design notes under the cut because of fucking course i have notes

Okay i have reuploaded them but i made this BIGASS reference post with my “”au””’s basic premise of like the different personality core’s being androids and yadda yadda world building shit

In that post it detailed the different departments that cores could be placed in + the different features each core had depending on their job. So we had relaxation center cores, testing management cores, etc. etc.

Here we’re gonna focus on personality cores, research & development cores, and the construction & general maintenance cores. Personality cores were designed SPECIFICALLY for connection to GLaDOS, but due to alot of cores being rejected by her the scientists just transferred them to different departments (with body modifications to effectively do their jobs of course)

Personality cores were made to mimic specific emotion’s, and before the destruction of the Portal 1 cores they were considered the highest authority, next to GLaDOS. They had access to every file and testing track in the facility, and are also the tallest amongst the other cores- the shortest personality core (space core) being 5’6 while the tallest (optimism core) is 8 feet. They also had two tailchords made specifically for hooking onto the Chasis & heels similar to the long fall boots chel wears.

After they were deemed incompatible to GLaDOS, Fact & Space were sent to R&D while Rick was sent to Construction. Space & Fact had their second chord exchanged with the standard projector tailchord most Research Cores need and had their heels removed (any long fall boots are welded into the cores legs). Rick had a second pair of arms stuck onto him, his boots were exchanged for the long fall shoes needed for construction, and his tailchord was shortened due to the regulations stating that longer chords could cause a safety hazard on sites.

Once a core is deemed “Defected”, any extra body modification is stripped away and they’re sent to the junkyard to be scrapped. I have a whole other thing for the junkyard but thats for another day. I forgot to add in the scars left behind from this surgery, but Fact & Space had their second tailchord cut alltogether and Rick had his second arms & feet torn apart from his body. Yeesh!

Some more specific notes & backgrounds on the defects:

🟣 Fact Core [5’7, Transmasc Enby, They/Them, Bisexual]; Fact was the head of the Research & Development Department, but after their motherboard fried from neglecting regular maintenance checks they were labelled defected. Fact is infact the least defected amongst the other cores, being able to function just fine. The most that would happen was huge sparks flying out from their optic & excessive twitching. However, they were unable to properly communicate due to glitches and their words getting mixed up, so to everyone else they were speaking nonsense. Thus they were thrown away, their position taken over by Dr. Alma in Meet The Cores. They dont hold any grudge against Alma of course, they understand how the symptoms work. They’re more or less disappointed in themself for putting themself in this position. Luckily, after the events of Portal 2, Fact Core was able to find a mechanic who could properly fix their motherboard- somewhat. They still deal with occasional glitches and sparks, but its better than nothing. In the Junkyard they had dents on their body & their optic’s lid was burnt due to the constant sparking, but generally speaking they were in pretty good shape!

🟡 Space Core [5’6, Transfemme Enby, He/Star/Neb, Cinthean]; Space was also transferred to R&D alongside Fact. Space was very outgoing, but although he had alot of friends in R&D he was extremely close to Fact Core & Ray (mtc 3). Due to a nervous breakdown induced after Fact was thrown out, Space Core had to be excused from work until he calmed down. Despite the best efforts from his colleagues this break didnt help his mental state at all. He was too distraught to continue working and had a hard time communicating with everyone in the lab. Aperture’s standard Therapist Core was… defected, as well, so he was just sent below to the Junkyard before he got another nervous breakdown. Luckily Fact wasn’t scrapped like they initially thought, so the two of them just chilled together being autistic beasties or whatevas. He didn’t seemed to mind staying in the underbelly of Aperture, as long as he had his best friend[/homoerotic] by his side again. Space Core is considerably more dirtier and covered in scratches, since he’s usually the one that goes out get supplies due to Fact’s condition- he oftentimes gets himself in trouble, but Space usually comes out of it alive. Despite the obvious communication issue, Fact & Space managed to survive the junkyard for a pretyy damn long time and can understand each other better than anyone else.

🟢 Rick The Adventure Core [6’8,He/Him, bisexual]; latest addition to the junkyard polycule & the token cis dude in the relationship LMAOOOO‼️‼️ Rick was in the construction team working on repairing any damaged testing tracks. His cocky attitude and impulsive nature ended up being his fall, as during a routine checkup he attempted to jump across a lake of toxic goo to impress some of the other cores on his team. He ended up missing the goo entirely and got himself caught by a jump-pad that sent him flying into ANOTHER testing track where he crashed onto the floor… and then shot by a brigade of turrets. Rick was given permission to rest while a mechanic was on their way to fix him but he refused to get any repairments in fear of being labelled as broken. Later on while working with nanobots on the side of a track his tailchord malfunctioned and he fell from his management rail, crashing into a catwalk and damaging his body even MORE. The manager practically begged him to consider a week off but then Rick just. tried to fight him. And failed. Like, miserably. So he was fired from his job and sent to the Junkyard. In this image i completely forgot about his leg injuries so imagine like a shit ton of dents & he’s leaning on this big iron pole for a crutch because im stupid and an idiot. Despite his long fall shoes being destroyed he managed to find another pair in the trash and welded them back on himself, but since the body’s motherboard detects the shoes as an outside foreign object there are times where his feet dont work. He covers the holes in his jumpsuit where his second pair of arms used to be cause frankly its.. kind of embarrassing for him. He’s covered in oil and grease stains from both the junkyard & his time in maintenance, with a shit ton of dents all over his body. He meets Fact Core and Space Core during his time in the junkyard and decides to chill with these little freaks yeehaw!

Also i just realized how teensy fact and space are compared to the other personality cores, this could be another reason why theyre pretty close since they would’ve been considered “runts” of the Personality Cores

Nebs Kicks A Three Legged Dog

Daddy: "Liberal Humanism had never been a vital force in anything except to mindless dreamers who wanna destroy what others have built."

Nebs: "Liberal Humanism was the intellectual foundation of the Italian Renaissance, which led to the Reformation, the Enlightenment, the Industrial Revolution and The Political Revolutions of the late 18th Century. It was the core set of principles in The Triumph of The West.

But like most of my fellow citizens, what little you know about history is jingoist bullshit spoon fed to you by your Rulers. You're actually the proto-typical 'Rugged Individualist' who loudly proclaims his freedom, yet is totally trapped economically and intellectually by The Corporate State on every level."

Intel vs AMD: EPYC Siena rivals Sapphire Rapids with less power

AMD EPYC Siena Performance

Both of AMD’s new Zen 4c equipped EPYC 8324P and 8324PN (Siena) server CPUs were recently tested in Linux by Phoronix, and the results showed that both chips deliver exceptional performance when used in server applications. Phoronix’s tests revealed that both of AMD’s Zen 4c processors were capable of matching the performance of an Intel Xeon Gold 6421N 32-core CPU in most tasks, although using a far lower amount of power than the Intel processor.

AMD’s EPYC most recent range of EPYC server CPUs, the 8004 series, focuses on power economy rather than sheer CPU performance. This is reflected in the 8324P and 8324PN models of the EPYC server CPUs. The new Zen 4c core, which is included into all of AMD’s 8004 processors, is 35% more compact than its predecessor, Zen 4, and boasts improved power efficiency compared to Zen 4’s bigger version. The raw performance of an AMD Zen 4c core is lower than that of a normal Zen 4 core. This is the single drawback of the Zen 4c core.

The 8324P and PN are located squarely in the centre of the CPU stack for AMD’s 8004 series. They include 32 cores, 128 MB of L3 cache, six DDR5 memory channels, and 96 PCIe Gen 5 lanes. They are distinct from one another in terms of clock speeds and power ratings; for example, the 8324P has a base clock of 2.65 GHz, a boost clock of 3 GHz, and a TDP of 180W. The 8324PN, on the other hand, has a base speed of 2.05 GHz, a boost frequency of 3 GHz, and a TDP that is significantly lower at 130 watts.

This is due to the fact that the PN series of 8004 CPUs were developed specifically for installations that must comply with the Network Equipment Building System (NEBS), which calls for systems that are able to survive higher operational temperature ranges than ordinary chips.

Low Power Draw AMD EPYC Siena

Phoronix evaluated the performance of the two chips in a variety of different benchmarks, which together equate to seven distinct categories. These categories include artificial intelligence workloads, video encoding, code compiling, file compression/decompression, high-performance computing, and other tasks.

When both processors were set to their highest power settings, the performance of the two AMD CPUs was superior to that of the Intel Xeon Gold 6421N 32 core. The Xeon 6421N was 2.7% faster than the 8324P when it was configured with its default settings, 2.5% slower when it was configured with its lowest adjustable TDP of 155W, and 5% faster when it was configured with the chip’s performance determinism mode.

It should not come as a surprise that the 8324PN ran at a little slower speed due to the lower power rating and base clock parameters. The Intel Xeon was 11.8% faster than the 8324PN in its stock configuration; however, the 8324PN was still able to outperform the chip in its performance determinism mode, achieving a 4.8% advantage over the Intel CPU.

AMD EPYC Siena Optimization

Even with performance determinism mode turned on, the 8324P and 8324PN were able to provide average power consumption ratings that were considerably below the 100W threshold. This was one of the many ways in which AMD prioritized power efficiency. On the other hand, Intel’s counterpart to Sapphire Rapids, which had an average power consumption rating of 137 watts, was unable to come even near to matching AMD’s level of power efficiency.

Phoronix’s testing has shown that AMD’s most recent Zen 4c core is quite powerful and is capable of producing performance that can compete with the absolute best that Intel has to offer right now. Although Intel may have beaten AMD to the E-core game with the release of Alder Lake, the most recent benchmarks demonstrate that AMD is capable of producing a delectable efficiency core that is capable of competing with Intel’s high-performance cores under certain conditions.

Is DeFi Neb a good investment?

Benefits of DeFi Aggregators

Aggregators bring together the best prices from the entire DeFi space, including DEXs, lending services, and liquidity pools, into one place so users can optimize their trades. Without the use of an aggregator, users would have to visit individual exchanges individually, compare trading prices on each exchange to find the best deal, and then execute each trade manually using smart contracts.

Manually checking prices across exchanges for the best swaps does not allow complex trade routing or mechanics. Aggregators not only provide the best prices, but also allow users to compare and combine strategies by dragging and dropping blocks to create the best strategy.

The better DeFi is, the more accurate the aggregate information provided to users; this will bring the best pricing experience to users within the ecosystem, including:

DEX: During a DEX (Decentralized Cryptocurrency Exchange), aggregated information helps users connect to the correct peers during peer-to-peer transactions. Virtual contracts or transaction deeds make all users safe. It would be best if you noticed that the more complex a DeFi platform is, the more secure it is for everyone.

SWAP: Users can exchange cryptocurrencies; during the transaction, you can exchange your cryptocurrency tokens for another token. Aggregated data is helpful because you will make better decisions based on facts such as CRO (conversion rate optimization) data available on pairs that can be exchanged.

Lending: Here you can get the best information on the right lending options for DeFi. The interest earned on lending dormant funds to a pool is advantageous because the better the cryptocurrency performs, the more confident you can be in your return.

Liquidity Pool: When you use the right aggregator, your liquidity pool will grow. When you use DeFi that allows multiple cryptocurrencies, you get better coordination. When given the right data by an aggregator to decide, you will be able to spread your crypto base in the right direction.

The profit logic of DeFi Neb is using the tokens which earned by depositing 'U' (usdt) to the LP mining pool and settled into stable tokens such as USDT. Users don't have to worry about currency price fluctuations, the core of DeFiNEB is to deposit 'U' to earn 'U'.

Just a little 'story' dump, regarding Nebs and Comet

Nebula isn't quick to anger, mostly because for the majority of their life any kind of strong emotions led to immense pain and system shut downs, but even then, they were only truly angry once, and that was the day they banned their creators, their citizens, from their failing structure.

Well, until they found out about Trails From Passing Comets.

It started relatively tame. He's doing okay, no one has heard from him these few cycles but his last status report only showed some minor issues.

And it slowly began progressing. Turns out that he's been silent for... Quite a while in fact. He's okay... We think.

And then some nerves were struck. No one has spoken to Comet since the mass ascension, and by choice for that matter. Is he even still alive? No one knows, nor cares.

Nebula was not having it.

They went to investigate for themselves, and found his structure collapsed and partially buried in the snow, his chamber intact and his puppet core still running, barely. He was alive, for now.

Nebula focused on bringing him back to consciousness first, warming him up, but the second the adrenaline wore down and they were able to put the pieces of the story together, their silent rage grew to new highs.

They were all perfectly willing to leave him there to die, and he would have if they had waited even just one more cycle. The thought of losing yet another brother sent them over the edge...

And I'm not sure the rest of the group are ready for truly pissed Nebula yet :>

Riv made a frosty boy with some lore and proceeded to kill him 2 days later, because Nebula's perfect little local group needs some problems :>>
