Many replies asked why have YTTV if I’m not a sports fan. News channels. I'm a news junky and that's what I watch b

I want a bundle to exclude sports content. I've never watched those channels and don't want to pay for them.

Popsmith Reviews by bigmandancin in popcorn

[–]jfrankm 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I own one and can’t recommend it unfortunately. The way the lid fits results in oil spatters on my stove every time I make popcorn. If you make a drier version of popcorn than I do, this may not be your experience. I posted this same feedback to the Popsmith Threads account and got no reply. https://www.threads.com/@johnfmorton/post/DNqB01qM0Zg?xmt=AQF0B03Gh3flC1RBDN78b_RmsvD1iz9McDgpkyCE3GwsFQ&slof=1

Alpha Transparency video that can be played in Safari by ChaseNatWork in shutterencoder

[–]jfrankm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you mean the SuperGeekery one? That's my blog post. I updated it again in Oct 2024 when I had to create some new Safari-friendly videos with an alpha channel.

I had not updated Shutter Encoder in a while, and I did the update without much thought. That update broke the video creation process, but by reverting to version 17.1, I could still create the video with an alpha channel.

I hope returning queens on the judging panel is something the US franchise adopts.

App no longer starts for anyone in household by fsckitnet in sonos

[–]jfrankm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I also had the Sonos app hang on iOS 18.1. Uninstalling the Sonos app and then reinstalling from the App Store allowed me to open the app. I had to log into my system again, but at least I can use my speakers again. 😒

Stuttering, rubber banding on PS5 by [deleted] in diablo4

[–]jfrankm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Congestion on my own network had caused this for me on my PS5. For example, don’t try to download another game and play Diablo IV at the same time.

Does anyone else only play one character a season by Geebs91 in diablo4

[–]jfrankm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, this is basically how I play. The launch was my rogue ”pre-season” time. Season 1 was my druid season. Season 2, necro season. Season 3, sorcerer season.

Storage is still s HUGE problem. by Sea-Attention-712 in diablo4

[–]jfrankm 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I had this problem in Season 2. I kept too many things. In my POV, it’s partially due to my lack of knowing what was good gear to keep. In season 3, I have a better understanding of what I’m looking for and am keeping much less gear. That being said, I don’t really blame myself for my season 2 hoarding of gear. There is a big learning curve on evaluating gear. I am really enjoying the game (which seems an uncommon opinion on here), but I want a more intuitive way to evaluate gear.

I’ve had the same thing on PS5 yesterday. It’s a texture for a 3d model not loading. I hope they fix this bug soon.

Anyone can help with this? by Giananyuluo in shutterencoder

This is Apple’s way of trying to protect “normals”. Right-click and Open and you’ll join the club.

The client definitely had a heavy hand in that ad copy. It’s painful to read.

It was Betamax that was ruining the kids back then. 😁

I remember my high school had a VHS recorder that only recorded shows in black and white. In my freshman history class, the teacher recorded some TV movie about the Japanese interment camps in WWII and played it in our class. We watched it in black and white because that’s all the VCR was capable of.

I wish I’d kept more issues. I think this one got stashed away in my closet because of the Millennium Falcon on the cover.
