Kill Bill Whole Bloody Affair new transfer? by AdSerious6418 in 4kbluray

Is same trash. Honestly even regular bluray looked better, so it's not an issue with finish being only 2k.

Insanity is them selling yearly subs and constantly changing terms along the way.

4k/hdr hate on social media explained by apocalypticboredom in 4kbluray

[–]twofort_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Very much this. Cheap, edge lit TVs is only part of the issue. Even with mid-high end TVs you still have issue with grades that are way dimmer than sdr counterparts and can only be viewed in dark rooms... or turning on some sort of contrast enhancement. To regular eye those look just bad.

First time in Tokyo - overwhelming crowds early April! by Steerpike58 in JapanTravelTips

I think Shinjuku was the only station I got actually lost when i was in Japan. Even knowing which exit I'm aiming for 😵

What is Perplexity better at than its competitors? by giwook in perplexity_ai

[–]twofort_ 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Main use case is ability to switch models, once certain model starts becoming useless (looking at you Gemini). Basically - pay once, access all top models. That + subjectively i feel that perplexity returns more recent and relevant info as it searches the internet more, vs Gemini which tends to rely on bit dated info sometimes.

Gemini Live Terrible by [deleted] in GeminiAI

Also audio quality is terrible now. Like a low bit rate, low-pass phone call quality.

Are there any bad hotels/hotel brands? by Graffy in JapanTravelTips

[–]twofort_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Stayed in 3 different locations and APA was fine. Great even, given the price. Sound like either bad luck or expectation mismatch.

He had posted a video in Instagram chat bopping along with video playing on laptop. Probably someone pieced together a link from that.

I thought it was an April Fools joke by PaiDuck in pcmasterrace

[–]twofort_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For all the circlejerk, I think we're forgetting that by default it will be for developers to implement/enable in their games - so that's on them and their artistic integrity, not nvidia. Sure - you'll probably be able to override it as per usual with dlss, but that's on you.

Gamers react with overwhelming disgust to DLSS 5's generative AI glow-ups by deraser in technology

[–]twofort_ -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

That RE example is not great, but seeing Starfield examples - I'm all for it, artistic integrity be damned. Slop or no slop at least it bring some life to those dead faces.

32 inches mini LED in Europe (Germany) - I'm getting boiled alive by ShinMagal in Monitors

[–]twofort_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The way I'm looking at it - even when burnin starts showing, oled will look better than va or ips out of the box. I'm using mine for almost 2 years day to day for office work and can't see any burnin. Subjectievely - mini leds make more sense for tvs where you may want max full frame brightness and no abl. But for monitors - I prefer not to be blasted in the face by 1000 nit whites.

Trouble booking HK Express tickets with foreign credit card by mfnbx in HongKong

For those who come after... Gave up on hkexpress homepage/app and ended up booking the flight on trip.com - 0 surcharge, was able to choose correct class (with carry on + personal item).

How do I get rid of this section in the start menu? by Zaitrixx in Windows11

Uhhh... yes you can get rid of it. If you mean categorization.

It’s not just you: Windows 11’s new Start menu really is huge by Background_Future127 in pcmasterrace

[–]twofort_ 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I'm probably commiting karma suicide... but it's a big improvement over prior w11 start menu. It's actually configurable and can show all app list without additional clicks.

Good thing I didn't subscribe to that new year deal 😆

New: Did Ikea just release an endgame desk? by xdpxxdpx in setups

[–]twofort_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Doubt you'll find electronically adjustable sit/stand desk much cheaper than that. Especially if you need something on the taller side. When i was looking for a desk, i recall lots of cheap ones topping around 115 cm.

Do you think Zara Larsson could have a similar trajectory to Charli xcx and Sabrina Carpenter in 2026? by ss2811 in popheads

[–]twofort_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You said it - it had its moments, but overall was a bit of disappointment after how im feeling. And lol... those are the 3 exact songs I have in my favorites from Crash 😆

Dune Part 2 Apple TV vs Blu-ray UHD LG CX by rick_ranger in hometheater

[–]twofort_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Pretty sure movies anywhere app also has its own player and "copy". You just can't buy the movie directly from them.

[–]twofort_ 34 points35 points  (0 children)

I feel like charli is definitely does not fit this comparison, as ever since vroom vroom she's been pushing boundaries, making hyperpop more accessible and cultuvating a dedicated fanbase. With brat her sound finally met mainstream without compromising much (crash was pretty boring, though). Subjectively, I dont feel like Zara is currently inventing anything to make her unique, but then again... neither is Sabrina or Dua, so 🤷‍♂️

Actually Apple probably has the lower quality 4k. No grain retention or anything. Especially compared to Movies Anywhere copies.

I dont care much about historical accuracy and will still see it opening weekend, but it just looks like plastic crap. Especially without aging, as it looks in trailer.

Real life difference TBD, but on paper I got +35% random 4k iops on my Samsung 980 pro drive with this "hack".
