Perfect Dark recompiled is amazing.
  • Perfect Darkness is the cheat that turns the lights off, I think the difficulty is called Perfect Dark.

  • I've tried one of them, imo it tasted pretty bad. Was just carbonated water with a weed taste, probably exactly what you'd imagine

  • I'm out of the loop on this, where'd you hear something like that? Very curious

  • subtitles on max
  • This was on Windows

  • subtitles on max

    Hey, just curious if anyone's had any experience saving the subtitles from max.com recently? I can only find old info about it being an xml file when it was HBO Max and that no longer seems to apply.

    I've tried a couple random utilities (Subtitle-Downloader, ttml2ssa) and can't seem to make any progress. If you can point me in the right direction I'd appreciate it!

    edit: Like with most things I seem to do, as soon as I post about it I actually start digging into it more and figure it out. So anyway, here's how I figured it out:

    I used The Stream Detector extension in firefox, start the stream up on max.com with subtitles enabled, then monitor the extension until it shows a vtt file. Then I download the vtt file using the extension and can convert it to srt using ttml2ssa and use it normally.

    edit 2: alas I discovered that downloading them this way will only download up to a certain time in the video. I haven't explored further but I imagine I'd have to go either play or seek through the video to get it to trigger the next vtt file which I could download (I haven't confirmed as of yet). May update again if I figure out a better process for this

    (final hopefully) edit 3: doesn't seem to be an easy way to automate this but what I ended up doing is using the stream detector extension in firefox, configured to automatically download vtt file extensions from streams, then just open the video on max, scrub through roughly every 9-11 minutes to get the each piece of the vtt file, they're named sequentially at least. Sometimes it will grab duplicates so I just wrote a quick powershell script to delete the duplicates, and rename the files based on the episode name. Then I convert the vtt to srt, and finally I use Subtitle Edit to join the srt files into a single one since the time stamps are all correct. Then I've finally got a usable full subtitle file to use.. yay..

    Ontario to ban use of cellphones in school classrooms starting in September
  • Why is this the stupidest bullshit? I'm honestly surprised this wasn't already a thing in schools

  • Carnosaur (1993)
  • Raphael Sbarge (Carth Onasi - KotOR, Kaiden Akenko - Mass Effect) being in it makes me want to check it out lol

  • I'm increasingly unhappy with the limits on AI text generation and I have heard that it's not that hard to do it on a laptop oneself. What is the best path forward?
  • LM Studio is one of the most user friendly ways to play around with LLMs imo. You can run some of the smaller models without too much memory (it will be slow without a decent GPU though).

  • Been a while since I played it but I don't remember it being particularly tied to the original in terms of story

  • OneDrive is ruining my PC gaming setups
  • In Windows 11 if you have internet access during the initial setup it won't even let you make a local account anymore like it did on Windows 10.

  • How do I share stuff nowadays?
  • To whoever wants it, I guess?

    I have some 1080p versions of shows that I manually upscaled that simply don't exist anywhere else for example. I just wanted to put it out in case someone wants it, I seed my stuff for super long just to get it out there.

  • How do I share stuff nowadays?

    If this is the wrong place to post please direct me elsewhere of course.

    I've been less active in torrents etc for a the last couple years so I think I'm probably out of the loop on this tbh.

    I have a couple of TV series/versions of series I'd like to share occasionally but it seems so few of the public torrent sites accept submissions (or require you to be a big name or upload a certain quota per month etc), I'm not sure where to post the torrents. In the past I had anonymously uploaded at TPB but that doesn't seem to be a thing anymore.

    Any advice/suggestions?
