Its going to be the Fall Dashboard update, so the last day of Fall.

I've been adding films to my instawatch queue on netflix.. so that I can watch them in full 1080P, and watch em with my friends as well.. like they said you could.

They never said you could watch them in HD, in fact they made it pretty clear that the streamed content from Netflix was not HD (It's sort of between SD and HD, but it's definitely not HD).

Sorry to burst your bubble, but this is a Netflix thing and most likely a choice that came about because most people have connections deemed too slow for HD streaming.

Oh come now, don't make comments like that until you've actually used the damn thing. Heck even the look obviously isn't finalized.

I agree that it looks like crap, but I am willing to give it a try.

I think the current default dashboard with the glass theme applied looks amazing.

It makes all the colors pop on my hdtv. Looks unreal.

      Fire and rehire. Doubt the work contracts are as favourable. Smart tactic using AI to do it legally.

      > And, of course, it includes in-game purchases. Sigh.. of course it does. I just don't understand why anyone would want to play this on PC, when the far superior AoE 2/DE exists. Just kill this with fire already. Or a trebuchet.
    • Rufus alternative Ventoy now supports Windows 11's mandatory update, fixes major boot bug

      By [deXter] · Posted

      Normally you'd just want to use Ventoy, but Rufus is handy when: - Ventoy doesn't work (some BIOSes can be weird) - You're mainly interested in creating a single Windows live USB and not interested in a multi-boot / Linux USBs - You want to automate your Windows installations (Rufus supports creating/injecting an autounattend.xml file which fully automates a Windows install). You can do this with Ventoy as well, but it requires a bit more of an effort. Also worth nothing is that both automatically bypass Windows 11's artificially imposed restrictions (TPM, CPU etc).
