NEW: I spoke to original Halo devs about that ICE Halo post

One: "abhorrent”

Another: "Using Halo imagery in a call to ‘destroy’ people because of their immigration status goes way too far, and ought to offend every Halo fan, regardless of political orientation”

Halo co-creator says ICE’s Halo-themed recruitment ad “makes me sick”

Another Halo maker says ad "ought to offend every Halo fan, regardless of political orientation." ALSO: A developer whose game just launched on Xbox slams Microsoft’s silence

He has 2 attacks, both have to be blocked or stunned via both 'modes' with near perfect timing. If either of his attacks are not blocked, he can easily and very quickly take away half your health

And this is Normal difficulty 😂

You have to time both fighting modes and combos almost perfectly. Oh and there is 2 stages.

Not only are there many attack and block combinations but there is also 2 'modes' as well as timed grappling away from AOE stuns and the fact that if you keep too much distance from the first boss, he can basically blink towards you very quickly, stunning you more.

Apparently over 90% of people have played the game so far based on achievements. Quite a couple either havent got very far or have struggled with the first boss. The first boss is pretty difficult.

I don't understand how 8kHz improves anything relating to a keyboard...

Well, that made my day. As part of my Phase 0 bodybuilding/fitness plan, I am documenting days that I believe should be.

I have been researching genetics, cellular responses and proprioception, as well as lasting effects from each day.

It turns out I may very well be a hyper-responder (rare).

This is absolutely unacceptable. Halo is my favorite series and to see it be used for Fascism is actually disgusting and I'm not sure if I can, in good faith, recommend any future Halo games if @halo.gg @xboxp3.bsky.social don't do something to denounce this & take it down

I asked Microsoft PR about this—specially the DHS using Halo IP to recruit for ICE—and the company declined to comment.

I just tested since Iv not looked at the Youtube stats for nerds menu in a while and it goes up to 65Mbps at 4k60fps. That definitely isn't low.

Oh I use an LG C4 42" and I see absolutely no blocking or low bitrate. Keep in mind, I tinker a lot and mess around with FFMpeg and Handbrake a lot and made several batch transcoders back in the day. Going crazy with things like AV1 compression to quality ratio's.

Nothing like meeting your new landlord and her immediately giving you a rent increase via a letter 😂

Ah well, luckily another bill went down at basically the same amount so, back to the start.

Hm, I see no issue with the 4k videos and to me upscaled 1080p to 4k looks worse because it's just smoothing over it. And I personally never understood the use of a plex server.

My SDR games look fine, just the 8-bit gradation, less colour volume and obviously less brightness/darks range.

HDR works perfectly now if you use gamescope, that's all that is needed. And RTX HDR isn't that great with my experience of it before I moved to linux, it just re-tones the brightness and nothing else. As for super resolution, why would you want that these days? Besides specific photography.

Just did a much improved and optimised version of my Monday (Upper Push + Cardio + Recovery) workout session and my god, did that take it out of me... 😂

12 out of 17 exercises done, mainly due to missing equipment for now.

13 out of 13 full body mobility warm up exercises.

Now I do be tired...
