Watched the second half of Kingdom of Heaven that I started about 6 months ago. The extended directors edition pushes of over 3 hours and I don’t have time for that in a single day.

Got through half of Black Hawk Down. One of my favourite films that I haven’t seen in years.

100% agree. JC3 is a gem of a game

Formatted size will always be smaller than raw size as you are storing a file system and there are lots of different ones with different space requirements.

Which is why there’s almost no 4k live sports. The processing is just insane today.

Kilo and mega prefixes have been used for far far longer than computers have been around and they mean 1000 and 1000000. It’s only in computing where these prefixes were corrupted because they were deemed “closed enough” and caused confusion because people expect the terminology they use everywhere else to also apply to their computer.

Half Life 2 is excellent.

FEAR 2 is good and scary enough for me.

Cyberpunk 2077

Trepang2

Black Mesa is a remake of HL1 and very good

Red boxes are very on trend at the moment, everyone is saying so

I’m mean, obviously Kelly Brooke.

Kids love laughing. Comedy is all about subterfuge and up-ending expectations. “Trolling” is the same. Kids make up the worst unfunny jokes as they don’t understand what makes a joke funny instead of ridiculous, but they do understand the art of the unexpected.

And yet Linux still doesn’t have an answer to administering large organisations through a mechanism similar to AD or GPOs

I’m going to split this in to two categories: 1) games that were the best for their time, but perhaps don’t hold up nowadays. 2) Games that are the best today.

1. GoldenEye. This game was just so good both single and multiplayer. It was revolutionary, amazingly close to the film and a real challenge to complete. It was a huge game changer and entered in the modern era for such games.

2. I just really like Just Cause 3. It’s such fun, great visual, even better game mechanics, cool soundtrack, a true open world and massive destruction, endless ways to approach every situation.

I used to live on the winamp forums, but I haven’t for a long time and it’s pretty dead now.

The main one is how it handles corruption. It has actively been designed to do the exact opposite of what a sane filesystem should do and maximises downtime.

Broken Terrible wRetched Fucking Shit

One of my favourite films and a definite masterpiece of cinema.

After having recently finished the book, I watched American Psycho this week. It’s a fantastic and hilarious film and doesn’t stray too far from the book. Christian Bale is phenomenal in it and the social commentary feels almost as relevant today as it did for the late 80s when it was set.
