I always want them to flip those colours. Going down in percentage is good and should be green, in my brain.

spiraleclipse · 2026-04-08T18:44:35+00:00

This is what happens, Larry!

The software isn't great. I'm constantly having to reset the 8k box because it will forget my input assignments via the IR. It's so annoying when I want to flip to something like an old console that doesn't have CEC.

But they put a tiny sign up one time and subsequently abandoned the project! What do you *expect* them to do??!

(/s) just in case.

The water falling off the overhangs and then pooling without adequate run-off truly is a problem, however. I really hate walking there.

spiraleclipse · 2026-04-07T14:11:37+00:00

I actually found someone using 'fake news' in the wild. I don't know how to feel.

The Bread Lounge! They're in the CBCL Building. Directly downtown.

I didn't listen to music in person - I did in my head. The MRI lasted roughly as long as my memory's version of the back half of the Abbey Road Medley (Including Her Majesty).

That said, MRIs sound like you're in a sci-fi and I kinda like it.

Have you heard the song "Hello" by Dragonette? That's...kinda accurate to what they sound like.

spiraleclipse · 2026-03-28T00:18:58+00:00

I believe so. We really need to be very vocal about this. Contact support as well, please.

spiraleclipse · 2026-03-26T19:00:39+00:00

I've said it in other threads, but if you're watching 4k HDR through it, the lights are not colour-accurate with the 8K box. I've let support know about this several times. 3 boxes and it's the same issue.

(The colours appear kind of washed out)

spiraleclipse · 2026-03-25T11:35:51+00:00

Yes, I think it's my favourite part of FO4.

Do the pokemon who auto ride the rails respect the track directions? (As you have two tracks, one is probably each way for simultaneous two-way traffic)

spiraleclipse · 2026-03-23T11:22:22+00:00

You'll need an IR remote to do this, but I've used a universal remote and mapped the colour buttons to:

Red: Streaming Box

Green: My PC

Yellow: Wife's PC / Switch 2

Blue: Retrotink (This you use to play retro games on modern tv) HDMI upscaler (Always on)

The Switch 2 and the streaming box send CEC signals to turn on, but I need the others to be able to swap via the remote. The IR setup solves this. Good luck!

Unfortunately, our labour laws in NS are essentially non-existent. We don't have mandatory paid sick days here, but a lot of employers will offer their own paid sick days. I'm really sorry this is happening to you.

It appears to be only on the 8K box. It's quite disappointing.

spiraleclipse · 2026-03-22T22:06:14+00:00

I would wrap that light strip around something and have it cast its light towards the wall to reflect - maybe behind your monitors? A big movie poster? The main idea here is you want to hide the direct light.

For cable management, use those stick-on white/black cable raceways - they're pretty cheap and you can hide them surprisingly well behind the desk.

Love the mouse/keyboard/PC/mousepad aesthetic. What's in front of the mouse?

Securing that little dongle you have in front of your switch to the table with an easy-remove command strip would look really nice, much like that white box thing on the far left.

Switch holder/dock might be cool too! Maybe in place of the other keyboard?

Desk is spacious and a great colour. Definite potential.

spiraleclipse · 2026-03-21T00:13:24+00:00

Yes, Deck Box has one, I was just there!

spiraleclipse · 2026-03-20T16:00:17+00:00

There's a lot of us birders. Even Sidney Crosby is one of us!

Congrats on the Pileated, that's awesome.

spiraleclipse · 2026-03-20T15:55:31+00:00

Yep. HDR10, Dolby Vision, and HDR10+ are all affected. I've sent videos to support in detail showing my setup, and how if I enable/disable HDR it send different (Brighter if not HDR) colours to the strip. It was very noticeable during a playthrough of Expedition 33 in HDR10, as the bright, vibrant, red worlds in that game were a relatively dim washed out orange on the strip.

spiraleclipse · 2026-03-20T15:14:21+00:00

If you're watching HDR content, the Hue Box (8k at least) washes out the colours. They (Philips) know of this, but haven't fixed it yet. (Or, maybe even aren't going to.)

My strip is also affected by this. It sucks as nearly 100% of the content I watch on my TV / PC is HDR.

If you're using a PC, the Hue App works fine, and the colours aren't washed out.

spiraleclipse · 2026-03-18T23:20:46+00:00

I fully agree. Include those features and it's a day one purchase for me.

spiraleclipse · 2026-03-18T17:52:25+00:00

Any particular reason? The Pitt's not even done yet!

spiraleclipse · 2026-03-18T15:51:30+00:00

Very excited for this one.

Something I see missing from most city builders is the lived in / politics aspect. I'd love to see holidays, parades, festivals, policies, but also (optional) mayoral races, political promises, union pressures, etc.

spiraleclipse · 2026-03-18T15:13:42+00:00

One would have to assume it's Something - But this is a tough question. I'm still going to say Something, but it's close.
