UNDERSTANDING RESHADE

I get a lot of questions about using ReShade, whether it's about errors, installation problems, or just for hints and tips. I put together a comprehensive guide to help you understand ReShade, including a troubleshooting section: www.patreon.com/posts/unders...

My one goal in life is to keep Lottie away from the router, which is at the side of that plant.

Yesterday I moved her scratching post.

Today I am realising my mistake.
Photo of a black and white tuxedo cat with the mischief of a thousand awful cats in her eyes. She is perched on the top of a scratching post in the corner of a living room. She is using the scratching post to climb onto a small dark wood cupboard.

A screenshot from Cyberpunk 2077 showing a woman on a city street. In the background is the underside of a bridge and a neon digital sign that says City Centre in yellow letters. The background is blurred, and you can see a yellow glow on the side of the woman's face, as if the sign is shining on her.

I didn't find the time to create any new holiday prints this year, but hey, the ones from previous years are pretty great and available.
A soviet style holiday card. A cat dressed as Santa rides on a big red star with a blast trail of smaller red stars. He smiles as he holds his open sac and various cat toys and treats flow out. In the background is a huge moon, a starry sky, and snow flakes. Text at bottom reads "Seize the means of joy!" An old timey holiday card but with cats. Three cats in a procession trod through the snow smiling and singing. It is a chilly night but the lead cat hold a star and candle on a pole to light the way. The text at bottom reads "Sing a Song of Joy and Liberation" An old timey holiday card but with cats. Two cats embrace under a blanket with their faces smooshed together. In the background and abstract snow falls contrasting the warm colours of cats and blanket. In large type in the phrase "stay warm comrade"

At first, I was uncertain whether to feature a large crowd in this three-cat, portrait-poster, and it was a lot of work but really worth it in the end. The crowd represents a diversity of jobs, furs, abilities, ages, and cultures in unison.
A cat poster done in the style of a mid-20th-century communist propaganda poster. A line of three cat faces face left in unison. Below them is a large crowd of cats marching. They represent various kinds of cats, ages, and jobs. The background is a large red flag. Text at bottom reads: The purrletarians have nothing to lose but their collars. They have a world to win. Workers of the world, Unite!"

The second #art poster inspired by the works of Walter Crane, "Labour is Entitled" (2024) is another three cat portrait commission. The slogan itself was first used in the early 19th century. It features three workers in industries vital to cats: fishing, biscuit making, and catnip production.
A cat poster in the style of 19th century illustration. Three cats facing the viewer hold tools and product of their trade, fishercat with fish, biscuit maker with biscuit, and farmer with catnip. The middle cat holds a large banner with the phrase "Labour is Entitled to All it Creates"

A screenshot from Cyberpunk 2077 showing a snapshot of a scene in V's first apartment building. Red Converse boots are hanging from a bracket of a food stall, and a homeless person is sat against a far wall with a sign. The atmosphere is sterile. A better-composed version of the previous scene, focused more directly on the red Converse shoes. The red colour has been enhanced, and the lighting improved to provide a more dramatic picture.

The desire for remasters comes from the same place as the popularity of cosy games. With the crisis of neoliberalism, ever-increasing costs of living, and an uncertain future, we retreat into the comfort of nostalgia, of the things that made us feel happy when times were better.

Dispensing false information in a confident tone, rather than offering no answer when none is readily available, is a major flaw of generative AI, experts say. An audit of the top 10 generative AI models including ChatGPT, Gemini and Meta’s AI by the media literacy non-profit NewsGuard revealed that the non-response rates of chatbots went down from 31% in August 2024 to 0% in August 2025. At the same time, the chatbots’ likelihood of repeating false information almost doubled from 18% to 35%, NewsGuard found. None of the companies responded to NewsGuard’s request for a comment at the time.

WHAT I FIND ---> WHAT I MAKE

ReLight isn't just for dramatic portraits. It also helps bring a scene to life by making the existing lighting ✨shine✨

#Cyberpunk2077 #VirtualPhotography #ReShade #MartysMods
A before screenshot from Cyberpunk 2077 showing two men sat at a food stall, and another man behind the counter. The scene is shown as it would be if you stumbled across it in-game, it isn't well-composed, and the colours are fine but a little flat and dull. An after screenshot of the same scene as in the previous picture. This time it has been properly composed to view the stall and the men straight-on. The colours are richer and more defined, and the lighting is more dynamic, adding to the atmosphere.

This is so depressing. There needs to be constant and organised resistance on campuses to this.

I've said it before and I will say it again many times, people using "AI" to design and deliver 'teaching' to students, to mark their work, and in this case to (!) generate literal voice overs are risking their jobs, and frankly they *should* be at risk if they do this sort of thing:
