Self-indulgent disclaimer.

Important to remember not to take my negative words to heart no matter how strongly I state them. I am a *pessimist* through and through.

Sometimes I'm joking, usually I'm serious, but I'm not some 4chan doomer trying to put a dark cloud over your day for its own sake.

Nah fuck that business of lowering your maximum health every time you die.

And the way you can't move while consuming estus just to piss on your day even more.

I noped out so goddamn hard.

Windows 10: When you should update and what it means for you

Microsoft is ending support for Windows 10, which could make users vulnerable - here's how to get Windows 11.

Setting up a second monitor again always give you that feeling "jesus what the fuck was I doing using just one in the first place?"

It brings you closer to being a god.

Leshen @leshen.bsky.social · 16h

Put a big mirror on it

Leshen @leshen.bsky.social · 1d

God imagine how funny it must be to be able to make shitloads of money off bullshit like this then call it a day

Apple TV+ has rebranded to Apple TV

It's their 'vibrant new identity'

Leshen @leshen.bsky.social · 1d

Lol as it turns out my headphone amp actually can play input from both my PC and Xbox at once.

Meaning all that business about trying to get a microphone working was unnecessary because I can just play on Xbox and chat over Discord on PC.

Durrrrrrrr

Well, I learned a lot regardless.

Leshen @leshen.bsky.social · 1d

(by default, you can change this)

Leshen @leshen.bsky.social · 1d

Interestingly, Xbox does not use the full RGB colour space because many TVs don't support it.

Worth bearing in mind if you use a monitor you know can support it. And in my case why Moonlight was washed out when streaming my PC.

I used to play through my Elgato in OBS before my main PC broke. No the latency wasn't that bad actually. :')

Leshen @leshen.bsky.social · 1d

Can't be assed to keep switching my headphone amplifer from my Xbox to my PC so just gonna remote stream my PC from Sunshine to Xbox's moonlight app just for the audio.

I am the master of absurdly convoluted solutions that to the average user would sound like I've suffered a concussion.

Leshen @leshen.bsky.social · 1d

Unless. Hmmmm. If I use my other Xbox profile to join a party on PC with its own microphone, and then join the same party with the account I'm actually playing on and mute myself on the Xbox side, that could work. I can hear on one side, talk through the other.

What silly measures one must take...

If I could think of a statement to sum up the Microsoft experience it would be "After using their products I feel the strongest urge I've had this month to drink even after stopping due to possible liver disease"

HDMI extractor* (first post)

Leshen @leshen.bsky.social · 1d

(or you can buy an adapter, but you'd need your headphones plugged into it, so if you need an amplifier you're fucked)

Despite Phil Spencer's bullshit that's probably why they removed the optical port too.

Leshen @leshen.bsky.social · 1d

My headphones are working after buying an HDMI splitter (which don't get me wrong I am happy about) but I won't be able to talk to anyone online because you can only connect a mic if you do it with the headset as well through the 3.5mm jack on Xbox to force you to buy licenced headsets

Utter cunts.

I guess Apple TV updated to 26 as well, which turned all my purchased movies and shows in the store to French.... Hopefully they still play in English, but what the fuck man. Oh would you like to watch Le Seigneur des Anneaux La Communaute de L'anneau?
No I'm looking for LOTR Fellowship of the ring

Grifting? Well I imagine all the rape played a part too.

The fact that at any point in my life I have to visit Discord for technical help is a human rights violation.

Leshen @leshen.bsky.social · 2d

Loved the base game, loved the giant. Really wanted to see what they could do with the material. THIS is the best they could do?

It would honestly have been better to cancel it. I can't think of anything lasting or meaningful I took away from this experience that I waited 8 months for.

Leshen @leshen.bsky.social · 2d

Actually shameful.

Leshen @leshen.bsky.social · 2d

Over already?

I gotta be honest aside from enjoying his quippy lines the Indiana Jones DLC is a boring, lazy & ridiculously short waste of your money that is more like the kind of free questline a company might add to entice people into checking out a next gen patch, except you have to pay.
