    Youtube is driving me loco with the ads

    I don't think you can block shorts officially. IIRC the "not interested" button is just to say "not interested in that set/the content of them". On desktop blocktube is your friend and can completely remove them. This is why I won't pay for premium. Pay for it, but then still need to run a...

    You guys still play video games?

    Yeah, I regularly play still. Normally have a single player game and a multiplayer one along side it. At the moment I'm doing the time trials on Splasher & for multiplayer and little bit of Overwatch.

    PS1/2 Do modern burners/CD's make lower quality PS1 backups?

    I've not dug too far into it, but Taiyo Yuden is what imgburn reported them as That's a pastel 52x disc. Taiyo Yuden, or so the atip claims. x48 disc is also reported as Taiyo Yuden. https://ez647.sk/verbatim.html Says the pastel discs are Taiyo Yuden as well.

    PS1/2 Do modern burners/CD's make lower quality PS1 backups?

    My oldish ihas124 E seems to burn copies fine. Last copy I ran off years ago at x16 on a Verbatim Pastel cd-r (these are taiyo yuden), worked fine on both my old 9000 series that is my original console from back in the day with a random 4 wire chip and has probably never seen an original disc...

    Youtube is driving me loco with the ads

    Default youtube experiance just sucks. Can't use it without Ublock, Sponserblock, and clickbait remover to get rid of all the "pulling a stupid face with a red arrow" thumbnails. Even if you paid for premium, would still have to run sponserblock and clickbait remover.

    Nintendo sends DMCA notices for "syspatch-updater" homebrew app by iTotalJustice

    Nah, I don't mean stuff like that. There was a period (I want to say when the wii or maybe when slot1 ds card got popular) where people would ask for help with X game they downloaded or X release and instead of help you'd just get people posting shit like "buy the game" and complaining instead...

    Things you recently bought or got

    Needed a new ds card, thought I may as well get one that does ntrboot as well in case I even need it. Surprised by the quality, I was expecting for it to need a bit of paper shoved down it to show up or for it to catch going in and out the slot as I read a lot about poor shell quality, but it...

    Nintendo sends DMCA notices for "syspatch-updater" homebrew app by iTotalJustice

    They stopped hosting roms because of site takedowns. Thats the whole reason it's called "gbatemp" because when it hosted roms it would get taken down and have to move, hence gbatemp as it was just temporary. Rom links stopped to make it a more permanent home. Even after the roms stopped being...

    Vsync

    It doesn't work the same as without vrr. On a VRR monitor Vsync basically controls what happens when you go out of the variable refresh range of whatever monitor or tv you have. Vsync on & out of vrr range=standard vsync with all it's downsides. Vsync off & out of vrr range=no vsync so tearing...

    Vsync

    Technically G-sync with a module is the best because it's the only one that has proper variable pixel overdrive, but it's generally not a big enough deal that most people will care/notice it. The others are all much the same and any differences between them will come down to the implementation...

    Vsync

    Only proper G-sync (hardware module in the monitor) is Nvidia only, but only for the older V1 module. "G-sync compatible" is just Nvidia's name for Vesa adaptive sync which is what AMDs "Freesync" is as well and works with both. Whole VRR nonsense is just a mess. There is: Proper G-sync...

    PS2 (SCPH-30004R) waits 1-2 minutes before spinning discs

    Probably the laser. Clicking is normally the laser on it's way out, it's been a long time but iirc it's the lens moving up and down struggling to focus. The disc won't spin unless the console can detect it, so clicking & long to time to spin is normally the laser having trouble picking up the...

    Apple is being sued for antitrust violations by the Department of Justice of the US

    Unless you want to use custom roms (which come with their own headaches anyway, like fighting with safetynet), I'm not sure what's suppose to be "bad" with them. I switched from a moto g6+ on stock android (custom rom, lineageos, so 100% stock android) to a Samsung A34 & haven't had any issues...

    @Xdqwerty No you heard wrong, and don't believe till you experience yourself. Fallout 4 is one of my favorite games of all time. Yes it had issues early on, esp with older hardware like the xbox1, but it is awesome, esp now being 4k on Series S/X or PS5

    @BigOnYa, Then i think people were talking about fallout 76
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    that one was buggy too
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Yea you right there, fallout 76 was a letdown, but it not that bad now, they have fixed slot of issues they had at launch. Biggest issue with Fallout 76 is its a pay to advance further type of game, which sucks
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @BigOnYa, I may probably download fallout 3 or new vegas on my ps3
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    cuz I didnt like fallout 1 that much
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    New Vegas is awesome, F3 was ok too.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I played Fallout 4 on PC, I enjoyed it honestly. Not my favorite game on earth but at the same time I didn't hate it at all lol
