Did this with Reshade playing that Radiohead Amnesia Exhibition thing and Marvel’s Insomniac’s PS4 Spider-Man on PC. It was great!
I guess I can see the appeal, though for me this seems mostly like an issue with the home setup.
For me, I don’t really care about price, it’s not that expensive.
But what kills it for me is I can’t vape or pause the movie or rewind or flip on subtitles or control the volume, I can’t take a break to take a piss and I can’t comment on the movie with anyone I’m watching it with and I get to pay 20 bucks plus waste my day on travel so I could hear random strangers munch popcorn while I am forced to watch military recruitment ads and trailers for movies that somehow outslop actual AI slop that are always called some shit like “$80s_intellectual_property_name” or “shit world: dominator” and they always seem to have that one lady from the avengers in them.
At home I watch web-DLs (and BDRemuxes for special occasions) on a 24 inch computer monitor with somewhat dodgy 2.1 Logitech speakers (basically classroom ones but with a subwoofer unit) from over 6 feet away and I lounge on the chespest IKEA couch. It feels like paradise to me honestly. But thanks for the perspective.
That’s so cool! Thanks for sharing it!
Companies not to vertically integrate. Production studios should produce movies, and streaming platforms should provide a platform for people to access movies. If Spotify made its own music it would be absurd, right? Well, yeah.
Nice, I’ll no longer have to wait to pirate the Web-DL. Hate cinemas anyway why would anyone go there anymore
I remember making fun of VLC users on /a/ and flexing my MPC-HC/MadVR setup that made my laptop fans rev and the screen flash just going fullscreen. That was over a decade ago now. Good times.
Huh? Why?
Yeah but that’s the thing they’re in completely different circles. They might as well be from another planet to us lol
Eh, idk, but to me rogue one is still whatever honestly, that movie is peak nostalgiabait for the most part with a serviceable plot that keeps things moving like a series or short levels of Jedi Knight or something so you can keep munching popcorn, and the cinematography and setpieces are actually really good.
Sure it’s now even more fun because the characters are fleshed out in a primetime TV drama that came out years later and I do rewatch it more often because of that, but it’s like saying revenge of the sith flows well with clone wars S7, nah, not really, there’s an island of quality between the two.
Been a while since I distrohopped heh
What even is zorin os lol I’ve never even heard of it. Normies really do surprise me often like this, like they mathematically calculate to pick the strangest least expected things through the most alien of mechanisms. Delightful news!
Worth every penny. Andor was peak. Ig it also explains why it felt so real compared to the weird plastic feel the SW sequels have (apart from VIII on the island) have.
Premiere, Photoshop, Lightroom, FL Studio. They either don’t work or work terribly on Linux. That one DAW on Linux from Ableton devs that’s decent still has awful UX compared to FL and VST compatibility seemed spotty. I do use Linux daily (Debian flavor) though just not on my main PC but on my laptop, and also on the work laptop for work.
Oh-em-Gee, this innsmouth phase is such classic Charli! Slay 💅🐟
The other being of course - Israel
Or they could be doing nothing harmful at all.
