I’m somewhat tickled by the snippets of adverts I’ve seen for both Samsung and Apple’s new phones that mention “AI”. None of what I’ve seen has actually explained why it’s a selling point. Classic cart before the horse stuff.
Ultimately I’m not the target market for flagship phones as the price has spiraled out of control to the point where I cannot fathom how it can be justified for such a mundane device.
I tend to think of “the world is ending” as being terrible writing from the outset. If you’re starting from that, you’ve only yourself to blame.
The greatest single-playthrough game would be a fun category. I think my picks for that might be What Remains of Edith Finch, Gone Home, Broken Sword: Shadow of the Templars, or Grim Fandango. Fire Watch would probably get an honourable mention.
A “pinacle of a (mostly) defunct genre” category might be a good one too. I would argue that Command & Conquer: Red Alert 2 is the best isometric RTS games ever made.
No love for Washing Machine Emulator?
I absolutely loved the modern day story. I was so very invested and it still smarts a bit that they lost interest in doing it justice.
Ye gods, 18 years, 4 months for mine. You’d hope that they’d just automatically stop asking if I’m old enough to view store pages, right?
I’m tickled that the code hasn’t been digitised and the scans are only just barely high enough resolution to make out the text.
I remember it dawning on me and making me grin. “Is that, oh it so is!”
I played through 1 - 4 and honestly, I think 4 was the only one that was actively good. The others might once have been fun, but they didn’t really hold up. However I had a great time with 4. I particularly liked the epilogue.
That’s a lot more like it! Thanks for sharing.
Indeed, I read the article. That’s literally what I was moaning about!
I was expecting a bit more. Some before and after screenshots, for example, some specifics about what these “several issues” that were fixed were would be nice too.
The article is pretty bloody vague…
Here’s what I found when I was trying to do this:
https://krita-artists.org/t/how-to-set-white-balance-according-to-a-specific-point/52297/
When I tried to use Krita a few months ago I couldn’t set the white point in the levels tool. I looked it up and the tool apparently doesn’t exist. That makes it awful for processing scanned artwork in my workflow.
Soooo, The GIMP.
Ooh, hardware encoding? Now we’re talking!
Unless they’re suddenly shoving a UHD drive in there, I’m not interested.
It seems a weird oversight - gamers that care about 4K surely also care about films in 4K? The notion of it being an external add-on is laughable.
Then again, this whole thing is a solution looking for a problem.
Symlink each individual file, obviously.
Amazing, I needed something like that a few months ago (and will need again in future).
Third time’s the charm, eh?
