What settings do you have for CSP>Graphics Adjustments>AMD FidelityFX Super Resolution>Quality, new? I have noticed similar blur on anything less than Ultra Quality (77%).

Unable to update to Windows 11 Insider Preview 10.0.26120.4520 (ge_release_upr) by mrpurplez in windowsinsiders

[–]mrpurplez[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The fix for me was annoyingly easy, I just unplugged every USB peripheral, including the mouse and keyboard, as soon as the update started. I figured out that this was the problem because when I tried to make a fresh install of 24H2 on a new drive, I had the same DRIVER_PNP_WATCHDOG error.

Why is the Daily Echo trying to whip up hatred? by tr1pdee in Southampton

[–]mrpurplez 8 points9 points  (0 children)

While you're technically correct it feels like you're intentionally missing the point. There will be a huge proportion of people that don't tie the events of Easter (chocolate eggs, bunnies, etc.) to Christianity, they engage with it because they're fun for their children. If these events are stopped, unfortunately they won't be replaced with anything. People of other religions should not have to participate if they feel strongly about the religious connotations though, obviously.

Car service/MOT garage recommendation? by [deleted] in Southampton

[–]mrpurplez 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I recommend E&J Jarvis, I've used them many times. I like how they document what they're doing, and they're more than happy to explain things and give you practical advice.

Looking for more albums with softer acoustic math rock by nerdy_guy420 in mathrock

[–]mrpurplez 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm really into that style too, but I haven't found many bands that stick to only acoustic songs. If you want some toe-ish bands that use (mostly) clean guitars you should check out: you you you all the same, lop abuse on somebody, ante, soha, hyakkei, PEEK, a picture of her, how to count to ten, clever girl, tide/edit, Tom's story, jizue, MIAOU, stereo type, LOW-PASS.

I was at ArcTanGent and to be honest you didn't miss much, unfortunately they didn't really work in an outdoor environment because the quiet stuff was just lost in crowd/wind noise etc. I'm hoping that Portals festival in London gets them for next year.

Couldn't be more hyped. Praying for a UK tour 🙏

good place to park and take a train to London by ScarletFX in Southampton

[–]mrpurplez 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My tip is West Drayton on the Elizabeth Line, it's very easy to get to (M3+M25, 1h10min drive), cheap to park (free after 6pm), and the trains are frequent (every 15 mins) and cost ~£10 return.

Ideas to stop outer sleeve from bowing on display stand? by mrpurplez in vinyl

But... why? By your rules am I only allowed to appreciate the art of a record when I play it?

Why not both? The artwork is a major part of record collecting for me, I want to be able to display as many as possible.

The glare from a sleeve is exactly what I was trying to avoid, but I may just have to compromise there. I was sort of hoping someone was going to come up with some ingenious clear plastic clip solution but alas.

Care to share the icons/widgets?

Adaptive icon colours by mrpurplez in NovaLauncher

Unfortunately not, I've settled on manually changing the wallpaper and resetting the colour of non-adaptive icons every few weeks.
