So umm... Could you technically pirate these updates? Someone could just nab the installer files and share them publicly. I find it hard to imagine that Microsoft built countermeasures for OS update-piracy.

Had a brief FOMO moment about Dragons Dogma 2, which luckily passed and i once more managed to put off upgrading my 1070.

Funnily enough started to play the first "Kings Field" that runs at 20fps. Probably the same i would have gotten on DD2.

Burning physical bluray discs can take quite a lot of time.

No no, Monster blade is a popular pokemon ripoff.

There is a future where google buys it and adds a chat to it.

Are you trying to gather a lynch mob here? I think posts like these are quite bad taste. Most wont have a good understanding of the situation.

Does this really fit this community?

That is actually how the Xbox user interface started to look like after a while. It went from "what you probably want functions" to 80% ad, whitespace and "suggestions" with a Play the game somewhere in there.

Since the OP is asking for headphones and hates earbuds, i'd guess that you are suggesting the over-ear WH series.

I tried running with them, the problem didn't even get to the sweat part. It's horrible to run with the sealed cans doing a "toilet plunger" like motion when your head bobs up and down. It literally pumps pressure your ears on every step. It's one of those "never again" -experiences. (EDIT: it's fine on elliptical machines though, it's what i use indoors.)

What i have used for running though is the Koss portapro. It's good if there's not lot of environmental noises. Like if you're not running right next to a busy road. The wire is also a problem, thus i personally modded mine with a bluetooth receiver.

Umm. It sounds more like that you are just trying out new things and genres and finding that it's not always a hit with you. That's healthy.

I just started OOT a couple of days ago for the first time. After setting it to run 60fps and dual analog, it feels perfect. A fun adventure where every secret isn't so obvious and leaves room for imagination. The game suprises you often. I even like how it looks after disabling the texture filters.

The fire sound of the torches are killing me though. The PC port has a sound switcher but i can't find this annoying ear-tearing noise from it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AW6uTdDx7s8

Plan is to try Majora next. I'm probably going to hate it like you as i don't really enjoy time-loop games.

I think that it notified all of my contact list when i tried posting a story. Not doing that again. Removed it in shame.

 

I was testing if i could check on older threads on reddit through google-cache, while my DNS is blocking reddit.com completely.

What i noticed is that google has been caching the new version of reddit and it behaves really badly on the cached version. Wayback machine is also as bad.

I installed the Web archives addon for firefox and tried the bing version, it was near perfect.
