I can’t speak on multiplayer experiences, but i have several emulators set up on my OLED deck. GameCube, N64, switch, ps2. They work well, and i have a 3DO pro2 i use while it’s docked to my 4k tv, sound through a surround sound bar with woofer - amazing sound. I mostly run skyrim and Balder’s Gate 3 at the moment, but i enjoyed BotW and my son likes sonic.
I’m late to the comment board, but I had to say something. I was amazed when one day my broken Balders’ Gate III P22 install suddenly not only worked, but worked with Vulkan. Until now, I figured it was an improvement to the Proton-GE or Experimental that came down around that time. Anyway, when I loaded my game (in the underdark) on my OLED, I was shocked at the improvement.
Not only was the framerate closer to 40+ vs 28-30, but it was vibrant. The resolution appeared to be better, too. It was gratifying to see it looked better than on my ancient Lenovo gaming laptop (circa 2016), which, to my surprise, handled it quite well considering the age of the NVidia card.
At least Chromecast for TV basically does this. I can search for something and it will tell me all the ways I can watch for any installed app even unsubscribed.
Still, the issue of paying multiple monthly fees to see what you want is ludicrous. It’s as if the media companies maliciously complied with consumers’ desire to pick and choose what they watch rather than pay $200 a month for 1000 stations they don’t watch.
Now, you have to pay $200 to get all the services that have what you want to watch - and you still have to sift through the drek.
Much better, that. /s
Well, I just ripped a few of my old DVDs with handbrake, and I upscaled by setting the resolution to 720p and ensuring the “upscale” cjljeckbox is ticked.
Tovmy eye, it looks pretty good on my 55" 1080p TV, and I noticed in my voddeo player it scaled to my display size appropriately. If I imply ripped it, the video would have a hugee black box around it ony high red display.
I’d say using handbrake is fairly effective once you get it off the disk, for which I used a rip to mkv app in Linux.
Well, lookingvatvthe advertisements, interviews with the producers, and articles by people who saw it, I’m not convinced.
And, for good measure, this one from Time praising it for exposing “male fragility”.
Um… Non_sequitur much?
Wow. This is what makes Lemmy different from Reddit. On reddit, I’d be baited to rage-post repeatedly.
Anyway, apology gladly accepted, and I’m glad you aren’t the person I feared you to be. I’m willing to keep my mind open on the Barbie movie, though everything I know so far points to anti-male themes.
Did you read the tagline on this very thread? That’s enough for me to make my conclusions, but add the statements made by the creators, and various reviews by people who’ve seen it, and I can comfortably live with my conclusion.
Oh, and your comment dripping with derision and insults to someone you don’t know at all reveals your true nature. Go spend some quality time with yourself, if you can stand it.
You forgotvto mention the serious misandry of that movie. Another double standard. Women do it, it’s all good fum. Men do it - canceled.
It doesn’t, so I use OpenVPN ony DSM when I remote connect, and use ExpressVPN on the devices that need it for anonymousness.
Wow. You mean people might gave to read actual books for entertainment?
If by some miracle the legal establishment takes this schmuck seriously, it is the end of the entertainment industry.
Glad to see it. Is anybody else having trouble with the space bar writing “v” or “c” instead if space? It seems I have to be focused on hitting the bar near the bottom for it to work.
True, but I was thinking of something with a GUI that helps one delete duplicates selectively.
Another problem is extensions like expressvpn and keypass won’t work, probably due to the sandboxing.
If you’d find one I’d be interested in hearing what it is. As an alternative, you might be able to use a Linux app while connected through MTP.
Tubi has one. I think it is called The Final Days of Planet Earth, and is about an insect-like alien accidentally brought here from a moon landing.
I agree that if it is already AAC, it should not be changed as it has the highest fidelity and best compression.
While AC-3 is not the best, it and AC-4 are the only formats i know that can encode TrueHD and Atmos metadata, so that should be kept it it is there.
Any transcode will lose fidelity unless the target codec is lossless, and I don’t think AAC has a lossless mode.
Lower level languages are definitely helpful in learning how computers work. When I was in college, I was not taught C, but our algorithms course was in C. We were expected to learn it on our own.
lisp and Prolog were used for AI - those we learned in class. Assembly was the ultimate “get intimate with the machine” language, and we wrote a simple compiler for VMS.
All of this is meant to help us understand how to work with machines. It doesn’t mean that that’s how we should work with machines. Sometimes the higher level language is the better choice. Sometimes it is not. We are expected to make that decision based on the situation at hand.
Can you counter those for those of us who are spectators?
It’s configured to run at the native resolution of the device, and looks good, but I’m not sure it is really at 4k.
Skyrim performs flawlessly, but Baldur’s Gate gets sbout 15 fps at this rez, so I have to lower the graphics setting. I’m nesr endgame, so there is a lot of city animation.
