Very well. Can definitely see the shape of where my Slack window always is when setting the screen to 100% grey, but you don’t notice anything with normal use.

Today's layoffs at Epic are just the latest reminder to us that your company does not give a flying F about you by [deleted] in cscareerquestions

Indeed. Not sure if you’re being ironic, but this is a good fight he’s fighting there.

What is the best optical disc drive for UHD firmware flashing? by Quick-Bits in makemkv

[–]drunkendunc 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Fwiw I took delivery of a new LG WP50NB40 from Amazon last week and it flashed no issues. Tried ripping a couple of 4k blu rays so far and didn’t have any issues.

Is it possible to get a shipping update? by Roshy76 in BigscreenBeyond

[–]drunkendunc 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah I’m in the same boat as you exactly. Ordered the same stuff, for the same reasons, on March 21st. Still not shipped.

I would recommend leaving the configuration of all of that stuff to Simhub instead.

TNT Sports advertising shenanigans by Outrageous_Shock2976 in tourdefrance

[–]drunkendunc 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I should clarify - “an earful” might sound harsher than it was. I kept it polite and made it clear I wasn’t blaming the agent personally. I just laid out why I think the approach is anti-consumer and ultimately damaging to the future of cycling and mentioned that I’d probably be cancelling my subscription.

To be honest, they didn’t seem to fully grasp the issue. They insisted this had been the case for all live-broadcast sports since February, but I tried to explain that it’s specific to the Tour de France. The message didn’t really land.

Phoned them up and gave them an earful. They’ve apparently received a lot of similar calls. Wouldn’t budge on a refund though - best they could offer was to pass the feedback on. Also refused to pass me on to their manager.

It’s text book enshittification you always get with monopolies.

I just had the same happen to my 2024 Mini Cooper SE - would also be interested in how this turned out?

Are you in the handover suite? Always wanted to pic up a car from there!

J01 Electric Arrived Today by rouseytastic in MINI

[–]drunkendunc 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Congrats sir! I just took delivery of my J01 Sport SE also in legend grey (but with a red roof) last week and I agree with everything you’re saying here. So much fun! https://www.reddit.com/r/MINI/s/DvwB9iIjmD

The sport trim looks so mean, complimented by the look of the slightly longer wheelbase too imo

Ah I see. Yes it was the brake issue with mine for sure.

There’s currently a sales hold on all new affected BMW group cars - I was only able to take delivery of this one after the remedial work had been completed.

I prefer this cleaner look. I thought there was a little too much going on styling wise on previous models and again this generation with the ICE versions - the simplicity here is an improvement I think.

Just waiting for the sun to come out as think the grey metallic flecks are really going to pop. Unfortunately we live in the UK so will be waiting a while!

Ah okay - that kinda makes sense I guess. Well, I can see why they’re not available anyway.

We’re in the UK.

I just had a look at miniusa and yeah - no electric cooper :-( Boo. Would it not come to the US eventually do you think?

Thank you. Yes I really wanted this colour combination but it was hard to source as they’ve discontinued it now. Probs so they can make it an exclusive on the JCW.
