@warm_gun: well, yes and no. Platter drives are cheaper, but painful to play all-digital on. The fastest ones are high fail risk (ask me how I know 😝).

There's no way I'd spend 950 on an SSD, but I'd also (and do) happily invest in smaller SSDs over cheaper platter counterparts of the same size

Mechanical drives are just fine for gaming. I've been gaming on my 7200 RPM drive for more than eight years and it shows no signs of failing soon. "Painful" is such a strong word to describe occasional loading, that normally isn't that long anyway.

Waiting for the 4TB.

Can you imagine the price? The Gen3 4 TB at that same link is 950 dollars. You get so much more value with mechanical hard drives.

@uninspiredcup: It came in three pieces. Catwoman and the cat slide into the platform with metal beams. Hers comes out of her right sole. I noticed later that her eyelashes protrude. Although the lashes are just single plates, the way they're painted makes them appear pretty convincing as hairs. Looks better in normal light. My camera is cheap.

The one disappointing part for me is the whip. I wish it looked more like flexible leather.

She was definitely the best part of my favorite superhero movie.

I don't know how it'll look for games but I don't really notice the difference between DV and HDR10. At least on my OLED C8. I'm looking to get the new C1 or G1 later this year. Maybe I'll see the difference with a better panel.

You'll probably notice the difference in movies where Dolby Vision is used as a band aid for crappy compression, like Total Recall.

Macroblocking in HDR10:

Dolby Vision:

I don't plan to upgrade to DV until some while after the MKV community figures out how to easily play back DV.

I don't know or care about Kelly, but American prison sentences are ridiculous, this one included if he really gets thirty years to life. There's too much vengeance in the penal system. And I know I'm speaking to very vengeful people.

@warm_gun: huh interesting no Ed in the intro. Probably they will end the season just before the Ed is introduced which was in episode 8 or 9 in the original show. I am somehow ok with this, no rush just get the first few episode up to the church episode right.

I think it looks like an expensive fan movie. Very cheesy for trying to imitate the cartoon so closely. But Faye's outfit (obviously adjusted for reality) was considered too racy... Also, what was the point of hiring Yoko Kanno if you were just gonna have her conduct Tank! again. The opening wouldn't be so cheesy with its own music and its own visuals.

One of the most amusing things to me is Vicious. In the anime, I never really thought about his hair being dyed. He is too young to be all white. But in live action you can't not think about it. He twirls his sword, when he never ever made any wasteful motion with it in the anime. It wouldn't have been in character for him. He wasn't about having fun.

I don't play my Switch much anymore and it's been four months since I used my PS4, but a 65 inch Sony 900e that I've had for three years. I don't plan to upgrade until some while after the madVR/MPC-HC community figures out how to play back Dolby Vision. I do most of my PC gaming at my monitor, an ASUS MX27AQ.

I never really buy memorabilia, but I've wanted a good Catwoman statue since I was a kid. Ordered this nine months ago, only arrived today. In my closed bookcase because I have no fancy place to display it. The doors will keep most dust off. I'm not completely sure about the likeness of her face. They did at least come close, which is a relief.

List of games with ray tracing support

Very little on that list jumps out at me as fun. Not a single one that I'd be willing to upgrade for. Will be keeping my ageing GTX 1070 for a long time to come, it seems.
