Yes, but it was only a flash, so I didn't get to see what was on it.

It's just over 2 years old now, and I've been using Accubattery to limit charging to 80% from the start. Battery health is still 97% according to it.

I find it mildly funny that people in my home country (TW) rave about China-Oel and buy loads of it when they travel to Germany, while people there probably have never even heard of it, and prefer using Tiger Balm which is super common in Asia.

Haven't watched, but I'm surprised this is made into an anime. I read the manga years ago, it's a pretty dark (maybe a bit dry) story.

Thanks. I also asked around my friend group, and they have said similar things. There's not a lot you can do concerning color reproduction across devices, they sometimes even edit two versions, one for PC/storage, one for phone/social media. Other than that, it's a lost cause.

So I guess the problem now boils down to color consistency in the same device across programs. Particularly on PC. I know that having a calibrated monitor is one major step, but what settings to tick and color space conversions in various programs are what's bothering me. Like, one photo imported from my phone can look desaturated in one program, over saturated in the other, and have a different blue tone in a third. Which version should I edit in? I'm only sticking to shooting in sRGB mode on my camera now to minimize headaches, but just wondering what else I could do.

It would, but it also probably would be a bad idea to do so. How many people would come back for a part 2 of a documentary film? I think not a lot.

Looking forward to every episode of Silo season 2! Should I pick up the books?

Not necessarily hate, but did not like as much as the rest of the internet: Oppenheimer

The moment I left the theater, I thought it should have been longer. Yes, I think an already 3hr film should be even longer. Just torture the audience at this point. But I thought that there was just so much stuff to cram into that 3hr length, there was not enough room for the story to breath, even if those stories were needed to paint a better picture of Oppenheimer's life, morals, and conflicts.

I'd still recommend it to people. If anything, it's still a visually well directed film. But if you aren't a physics/history buff, you might not enjoy the story as much.

In my opinion, a better history based movie would be The Imitation Game. Much more focused story, even if some aren't historically accurate.

I stand corrected.

Outstanding visual is pretty packed this year, but I wish Nine Sols wins it. It's not even underrated, just feels like it wasn't talked much about outside of Hollow Knight enjoyers, maybe due to it launching on PC only (console version came out only recently), or perhaps due to the studio's turbulent past. More people should really give it a go.
