My cheese for DS1 was just getting up close to enemies with your shield up and getting round the back of them. You seemed to be able to shuffle faster than they could turn. Then backstab away.

I think it's Bloodborne that doesn't even let you access the levelling system until you've encountered a boss.

We used to have a TV nutritionist called Dr Gillian McKeith.

She was later forced to stop advertising herself with the word "doctor".

I'm sure it was Ben Goldacre who said "Gillian McKeith, or to use her full medical title, Gillian McKeith"

We are like two years max from the Brawdo timeline.

They don't even have to change their habits.

You can get delivery from many local takeaways without needing to send half (or more) of your dinner money to a silicon valley billionaire.

Sounds of Nigel Farage scrambling to make a Tik Tok account

Yeah, command lines just feel native on Linux, where in Windows it feels like it's running off behind the scenes to fetch a grown up.

Man, has anyone else noticed that LLMs are really knowledgeable about subjects you know nothing about, but useless gibbering idiots about subjects on which you are an expert?

A lot of monitors have particularly bad HDR, the max brightness being so low you might as well not bother. And as you've found out some games are really washed out for some reason. Like to the point where the game is almost entirely grey.

Worse, some games actually detect the capability in the monitor and turn it back on, and for that reason I wasn't able to play Nex Machina on PC.

Imagine being so poor you're driven to a doctor's appointment rather that having them come to you.

It's basically HDR (the 10 bit display kind, not the Half Life 2 kind), but with more metadata.

What I find is that if you have a Dolby Vision capable TV, it will be already calibrated to something that looks good, rather than you having to fuck around telling it how bright "paper" is or some shit.

HDR displays are surprisingly tricky, even without Dolby Vision or HDR10+. Especially if you're mixing SDR and HDR content on a display. I tried it a few years ago on Windows and it was flat out awful. I think they've fixed a lot of it up now with Win 11, but even they took their damn time over it.

As far as I could tell only 12 people could vote on whatever this was, and 8 of them are republicans.

Hell, one of them even voted for it. I assume the one in the shakiest seat.

People this low in the pecking order don't get invites to Paedo Island.

Might be worth looking at who donates to them though...

In the files? I think even Ghislaine didn't have her picture taken with Epstein as many times as Trump.

Just kidding, it's ads for everyone except some CEO who is getting a BJ from two supermodels at once on a yacht.

Irish are non-white again. We're going back to the 1800s, baby.

MS do sell Atmos (and DTS:X) support as an individually licensed thing, threough Dolby Access and DTS Sound Unbound on their store.

I do wonder how it could work in Linux, as well as getting things like commercial streaming services in 4K.

Presumably some sort of black box hardware would be needed (for the super top secret Widevine L1 shit), the manufacturer of that can pay the Dolby fees, and then just some basic open source code to call the hardware features.

If all of them went into their respective places of work tomorrow, locked themselves in and then all died of a gas leak, I wonder how long it would be before anyone would actually notice.

Much of the workings of a country are run by civil servants, etc who would still be there. They'd just get no new orders. People would still get paid. Shit would still get done.

It could be years before we find them.

Reminder that Virginia Giuffre (Virginia Roberts in this document) died earlier this year, in an apparent suicide.

Which is presumably convenient for somebody.

Yeah, it's just what would work for me once I cancel Netflix Premium Plus with Reduced Adverts.
