There’s a modified .exe that will allow you to enable full ray tracing on a 10gb 3080. I tried it last night and it worked pretty well, getting between 40-70 FPS on the area under the Vatican and the sequence going to Ciaro. You just have to set DLSS to performance and the texture pool to low (note, this doesn’t mean that textures will be low quality, just the cached amount is low so you may see some pop in at times).

Here’s a thread (sorry it’s reddit) that includes the download - https://www.reddit.com/r/nvidia/comments/1hbak60/indiana_jones_and_the_great_circle_path_tracing/

My wife does this to our books and it drives me nuts.

• “Where’s The Art of War?”
• “It’s in the black section”

One year her mom and I reordered them by author last name while she was away on a work trip. Took her 5 seconds upon returning home to notice it was different and she was furious.

I’m in the US, also says page not found for me.

Sorry, I’m too busy smoking weed

Missed opportunity to change the dollar amount to $69,420

All you need to know is that he labeled himself as a consultant. Which reminds me of this joke.

Once upon a time there was a shepherd tending his sheep at the edge of a country road. A brand new Jeep Grand Cherokee screeches to a halt next to him.

The driver, a young man dressed in a Brioni suit, Cerrutti shoes, Ray-Ban glasses, Jovial Swiss wrist watch and a BHS tie gets out and asks the shepherd: “If I guess how many sheep you have, will you give me one of them?” The shepherd looks at the young man, then looks at the sprawling field of sheep and says: “Okay.”

The young man parks the SUV, connects his notebook and wireless modem, enters a NASA site, scans the ground using his GPS, opens a database and 60 Excel tables filled with algorithms, then prints a 150 page report on his high tech mini printer. He then turns to the shepherd and says:"You have exactly 1,586 sheep here. "

The shepherd answers: "That’s correct, you can have your sheep."The young man takes one of the animals and puts it in the back of his vehicle. The shepherd looks at him and asks: “Now, if I guess your profession, will you pay me back in kind?” The young man answers: “Sure.” The shepherd says: “You are a consultant.” “Exactly! How did you know,” asks the young man? Very simple, answers the shepherd. “First, you came here without being called. Second, you charged me a fee to tell me something I already knew. Third, you do not understand anything about my business and I’d really like to have my dog back.”

Hopefully with this they also release the patch that fixes cloud saves between Steam Deck and PC that’s been an issue since day 1…

Of course they announce this the week I intend on opening mine up and upgrading to a 2tb drive. Was going to dual boot Windows so I could get Gamepass games natively running on it. The screen update gives me pause though. I really love the OLED screen on my Switch, and the LCD on the Steam Deck has been one of my biggest gripes about the system.

Are you me?

I’m also in the end game part, trying to max out my hearts before putting the game away. I’ve been using Mapgenie.io to help me figure out what Shrines I don’t have. While I love the exploration and the sensor+ helps point you in the right direction, I just want to wrap this one up soon to get to other games in my backlog.

Powering through Tears of The Kingdom. Just finished up the last temple I had. Probably going to go hunt down a few more shrines for more hearts.

Last week my launch Switch from 2017 started to kick the bucket, displaying a blue screen. I was able to get it booted back up once randomly, which prompted me to immediately resubscribe to Nintendo Switch Online so I could get cloud back up saves for all my games. After that one session, it went back to doing the blue screen and never booted up properly again. I really hate that cloud saves are being a paid functionality and wish it was a little more gracious like with what Xbox offers.

Fast forward a few days, I picked up an OLED Switch and transferred what was available from cloud data. Thankfully TOTK was there but I was missing a number of games I thought I had back up but we’re missing. Out of all, I think I’m most bummed about missing my Smash save data. Having to unlock all of those characters again now too. Everything else I lost I either completed already or had fallen off. I get why Nintendo doesn’t allow saves on the SD card but that really would have saved me some headache.

I shipped the old Switch off to get fixed by Nintendo, received it today but in the end they did not repair and simply gave me another unit, without my old data :(

This is the correct answer. It’s what led to the first argument my significant other and I had, followed shortly by Catan.

Sorry, didn’t realize you were referring to promos that Spotify runs for their content. Yeah I guess they don’t have a way to turn that off, but it’s a simple button to get past.

Also, fast forwarding really is not a big deal. While I’m out walking my dog and kiddo I just tap my ear buds twice and it fast forwards 15 seconds past the baked in ads in the podcast.

If the ads are baked in, just hit the 15s jump button a couple of times until you get back into the podcast. The ones I listen to usually play music during the ads, so when I hear the music is over I know I’m back in the podcast.

I thought Defiance wrapped it up, no? It’s been a long time since I played it but all I remember was a convoluted time travel story

The WGA started their strike at the beginning of May. SAG entered negotiations at the beginning of June but have authorized a vote to strike should negotiations not go their way. We’ll find out at the end of the month if SAG decides to strike.

No end in sight and SAG might be up next at the end of the month. They’re in negotiations right now.
