Taking Photos. Do you still print photos and put them in an album? Has the smartphone trivialised photography? What purpose do photos now serve?

Roblox. An online game platform and creation system. Quirky, simple fun and a social hub for the young. But robustly monetised. A few thoughts on the matter.

Today I officially became an old man because I put something useful in a tin that I might need later.

My grandson seems to have drawn some sort of eldritch horror.

I ordered a Panzerfaust plush for my grandson. I was expecting it to be delivered in a box or some similar packaging. This is how it arrived.

Playing LOTRO at 2K and 4K. How do you solve the problem of a small, unreadable UI at high resolutions? By upscaling a lower one. A few thoughts on using Lossless Scaling to "fix" this ongoing issue.

Screen Capture Software and HDR. Since I bought monitors that support HDR, all my screenshots have an overexposed look with washed out colours. Apparently it's a known issue. A few thoughts on solving this problem.

Disco Elysium: The Second Playthrough. I'm just not done with this game yet. It is just too compelling to put aside.

Finally selling my Nintendo Switch. Mainly because I can't read the text on the screen or see sufficient visual detail. If I'm only going to use it when docked, I may as well just play the respetive games on PC.

Cable Management. A sensible policy for PC maintenance or the province of the smug and sanctimonious? The answer is both.

Gaming at 2K hasn't improved matters beyond I can now see who killed me a lot more clearly.

New Monitors. I bought two 27 inch QHD monitors for my PC, although I considered purchasing a 43 inch OLED TV instead. A few thoughts on big screens, large resolutions and small text.

MMO Tropes: The Current Meta. Many multiplayer games develop optimal builds that become ubiquitous or end up having one weapon or item that is "the best in the game". A few thought on this frustrating phenomenon.
