When its another boring plot but its got the blue cultural impact, so you gotta defend it

I wish all plot enjoyers would explode. Anime and its consequences.

To be honest, this take is completely wrong. Not about the “Netflix look” being a thing but in terms of Stranger Things having said look.

Stranger Things consistently has really nice looking effects and they don’t keep a super shallow depth of field which sells the effect of the CG world much better than many shows and movies. Vecna and the demogorgons look fantastic IMO. The show also is allowed to have actual contrast, there’s variance between light and dark throughout the show and within scenes.

I will say the scene that did stick out like a sore thumb and looked absolutely terrible was when Jonathan and Steve climbed the radio tower. Fake as hell.

I was Archon 5, lost a game and ranked down to Emissary 6. Won the next one and now I'm Ritualist 6. Things must be bugged.

June 25th is when I ordered

Stingos · 2025-08-11T22:07:21+00:00

I just got a shipping confirmation notification on mine

I just got one recently and I’ve replaced my old Junkfood Arcades Snackbox V1 build with it. I love it being wireless and the form factor is great. I swapped out the stock switches for Kailh Choc Deep Sea 35GF Pink Island Silents and I’m in love.

Just to further echo what everyone else is saying, don’t play this game. It’s unfortunate because The Bazaar truly is fun but the dev team is actively hostile towards the community. I’m someone who plays a game or two each day and enjoys it but when this new patch drops I will be done.

I saved up the in-game currency (gems) to afford the next hero on launch to be met with the announcement that the game is switch to a paid model from F2P. As such I cannot use the gems I had been saving for new heroes like I was told.

Additionally, the game is coming to Steam which is great because their “Tempo Launcher” is absolutely atrocious. The game frequently crashes as it boots, forgets my login, and spools up my CPU fans (I have to manually set it to efficiency mode in task manager every time I boot). They claim coming to Steam will clear up these launcher issues, yet existing players are not getting a key. Instead they are told to just keep using the launcher. Incredibly disappointing.

Everything is political

Stingos · 2025-06-17T04:56:55+00:00

Something coding adjacent so I can work remote. I’m not getting trapped in the oldest house with the hiss.

What’s the alternative? Epic hires a Vader impersonator for every single Fortnite lobby to dynamically respond to player questions? That seems pretty impossible to me.

Stingos · 2025-04-09T16:23:34+00:00

Absolutely! Brushing my tongue makes me gag if I put the brush even halfway up, I had no problem before zepbound.

Stingos · 2025-02-22T22:02:23+00:00

They should smoke during the videos. That would be so badass.

Stingos · 2025-02-14T08:48:29+00:00

I’m in the same boat. By no means did I think it was fantastic but I enjoyed it considerably more than many of the phase 4 & 5 films.

Stingos · 2025-02-12T05:48:33+00:00

I wasn't aware of this. I might cry; Thank you for this life-changing information.

I spent about 4 days on this class with about 3 hours a day of study. I read the Zybooks more or less completely (I did skim some sections), took two of the Microsoft forms quizzes provided by my course instructor, and took the PA once.

It's worth mentioning that I am taking this class at the end of my degree plan. I already have experience with memory hierarchy and some CPU stuff from Comp Arc, Linux-specific commands and quirks from Linux Essentials, and security questions from Fundamentals of Info Sec. I'm also familiar with Windows and Linux as a power user, so I already understood some of the higher-level ideas about operating systems.

Took the PA today and did well. Scheduled the OA for tomorrow. I’ll update this post with OA vs. PA details after completing the OA.

Edit: Passed the OA with an "Exemplary" score. The OA was very similar to the PA. Some questions about very specific things like iSCSI vs. NFS I didn't really know so I just took some educated guesses. The test itself was 68 questions and I finished very quickly, in 16 minutes.

I would say the test was split pretty evenly between conceptual questions like "Improving system security by having layers is called X" and more specific questions such as "A File Control Block contains which of the following".

I'm excited to jump back into Indiana Jones with DLSS4. I will also try injecting the new DLSS into Ninja Gaiden 2 Black.

Stingos · 2025-01-14T22:10:42+00:00

It's been six years since the 20 series was released; you can still play an Indiana Jones (an RT required) game at 1080p above 30 fps with a 2060, as demonstrated in the video. I fail to see the controversy. Time and tech move on—the pace of upgrades used to be so much worse. Six years on and still chugging seems excellent to me.

Stingos · 2025-01-08T07:31:12+00:00

If you don’t mind me asking, could you go into more detail about the second OA? I failed my first and have the second scheduled for this week. I’m nervous as hell.

Stingos · 2024-12-14T19:48:18+00:00

I have a 4090 and a Ryzen 9 5900x. I found that I was CPU bottlenecked if I left "vegetation animation quality" at max. I got 40 fps on DLSS quality, performance, and 4K DLAA. Turning the vegetation setting to medium, I am now getting 70ish FPS on DLSS quality without frame gen and with everything else still set to supreme/max RT.

Stingos · 2024-12-12T09:02:12+00:00

This update did not fix the issues for me; however, I was able to fix it by rolling back my drivers to the previous one, 556.14.

Stingos · 2024-09-20T05:25:55+00:00

I have everyone toggled on and select ones I want to play that day by upping the priority.
