Re: The Room 101 thread - for things you hate or just having a bloody good moan

Fans don't really work for me, my eyes dry out really quickly if there's much in the way of air movement and that's almost as bad as the heat. The eye drops the optician recommended don't even take the edge off.

Re: The Room 101 thread - for things you hate or just having a bloody good moan

Thankfully I have windows in the front and rear of the house I can open to get a good through-draught going, but that only works when there's actual air movement outside, which didn't really pick up until half ten on saturday for me. Has anyone ever actually investigated proper air conditioners? I t...

Re: The Room 101 thread - for things you hate or just having a bloody good moan

The heat made the weekend absolutely wretched for me. I took part in the weekly Darktide session with the Discord group on saturday, and given it was warmer outside than in when I started, I didn't open the windows. My PC runs pretty warm (though apparently not warm enough to melt my motherboard, un...

Re: Aaand, In Other News...

Musk has actively been manipulating Grok into treating legacy media as false when it disagrees with his lunatic far-right narrative. It's somewhat unsurprising that they haven't learned from the history of this style of AI chatbot - not learning from history is pretty standard for the US these days...

Re: The F1 thread

I genuinely used to like Horner, when compared to the likes of Ron Dennis he was a breath of fresh air, but my word how that opinion changed over the last decade. He's a smarmy, slimy, wretchedly unsporting mouthpiece happy to have his team moan and complain about every single advantage their oppone...

Raid and I played it, and while the scope of what they are doing is amazing the levels of jank were beyond olympian :lol: One day, it might be amazing, but it sure ain't there yet! "Jank" assumes that the product actually works in some way. It doesn't, all of the on-foot stuff was entirely broken, ...

Re: General Gaming News

I've seen the updated model and I think the new one looks better. I find Nightdive are excellent at updating things to have the same feel as the original. Besides, the Cyborg Midwife was always scary because of her soothing, but electronic voice saying "I'll tear out your spine." That was always the...

Re: General Gaming News

If this had the same level of attention given to the environments as it had the character models, I'd have been interested. It feels like there's a new version of System Shock 2 released every 5 years or so, but they only ever update the enemies and weapons, the level geometry looks identical to the...
