Hey everyone thanks for clicking on the topic. Im asking what you know about Tik Tok the video app, especially if you use it, I just want to know how it works and do you like it. I want to start recording the Film Club wheel drawing LIVE! I think it would be so much fun to have people tune in for the live thing. So if you think Tik Tok would work for that...drop me a line or if you want to share your Tik Tok, just paste the link in here. Thanks.

The targetted cost per month was said to be USD$80 for customers, but at what speed? Their planned 25mb or 50mb download idk. They are seeking to put up 30k satellites as the service is targering rural areas and are registering a beta signup for early 2021. Starlink is also seeking a grant out of Gov initiative of a $16 billion fund set aside to help modernize rural areas digitally where the authorities are holding them to account as it comes to a 100ms latency cap. Its definately something to watch & if you allow yourself to actually think outside the box & pull the trigger & use this service it might change your internet experience from night to da…

'My thoughts & assumptions' on this is its going to be cheaper to manufacturing, lower energy use while getting a bright colour acturate screen, lower input latency seeing it doesn't have to spend time filtering colours, expecting image burn in over the years while also expecting it to be more than affordable and thinner & lighter to ship with more space to pack in a shipping container. At the worst they'll charge a heavy price for the research & such if there is no competition working on one in the shadows.

During today's "Road to PS5" presentation, PS5 lead system architect Mark Cerny ran through a lot of technical details regarding Sony's upcoming hardware. Though the event seemed geared more towards developers than consumers, it did clarify some information about one of the topics gamers are passionate about: backwards compatibility. Cerny revealed that PS4 (and PS4 Pro) backwards compatibility is a native part of the PS5 chipset, and that it isn't a scenario like the PlayStation 3's backwards compatibility, which essentially just included a copy of the PS2 in every console until the feature was removed in later iterations. "Once backwards compatibility is in the con…

Knowing which version to purchase from the images provided. The item to fix your controller issue is called Conductive Silicone Rubber Pad. Make sure the black circles on them are shiny as its the conductive graphite that gives good response when pressed . It solves your R2/L2 problem not giving 100% button press when racing for a few $. The 1st image below is for the original launch PS4, the compatibility types is JDS 001/ JDS 011. notice the rubber pads I circled in red & compare them to yours. The image below is for the controller that came out when the slim PS4 & PS4 Pro was launched, notice the blue light bar in the touch …

PS4 Constantly Ejecting
by Potato- 2 followers

My PS4 has been constantly ejecting discs for no reason, or constantly trying to eject when there's no disc in it. I've read this is a common problem, just wanted to know if anyone else has had this problem, and what did you do to fix it? I had rare occasions where this would happen months ago, but recently this happens more often, and this week it's been pretty much constant. Sony has a quick fix guide for it, which obviously does nothing. I also pulled the rubber foot out underneath the eject button. Is there any way to fix it without having to take the thing apart?

PSN Store Digital Games Removed
by Smurf- 2 followers

So i will use this as an example, recently Drive Club was removed from certain regional psn stores and for the U.S its off in 2020. I remember when a Ninja Turtle game was removed from the store sometime back, I was thinking it's probably going to happen slowly but surely with AAA games but not anytime soon. Well my question is how would you handle it if a game you enjoyed was about to meet the chopping block but you want to continue playing it? Whats your contingency planning. Will you download it on a external hard drive, would it be a solid state hard drive, buy the disc version or does it not matter to you at all?

Post your headset and why you like it, it may help others decide what to get. I'll start by telling what I started with which was a simple $20 bluetooth for my phone. It pairs with the PS3 easily and worked/s quite well. I still have and will be using it again when I record gameplay so I can chat and still record the audio. Highly recommend this method if you are tight on funds and looking to chat with other gamers. I went to the Sony PS Pulse Elite headset and it is a world better for picking up subtle ingame sounds. In Ghost Recon Future Soldier it was wonderful for picking the direction of gunfire or footsteps due to the surround sound built in the I couldnt get fr…

IC Graphite Thermal Pad

Warning: IC Graphite is electrically conductive! Any contact with electrical components while the device is turn on might result in permanent damage. Right out the gate let me say this, the brand Thermal Grizzly Karbonaut is superior pushing 62.5 watts per Kelvin vs IC Graphite's 35 W/m K thermal conductivity. Then there is the Heavy Duty Thermal Grizzly Conductonaut Thermal Grease Paste Compound which gives a wapping 73W/mk. Its a liquid metal that gives up to 10 degree temp drop, your console will run cooler n quieter. Before placing the 30mmx30mm in the PS4 Slim, I folded the thermal pad horizontally & then vertically to form a…

Perhaps we are seeing the end of the laptop? Me in the 90's Spoiler

3rd party PS4 controllers?
by piotras- 1 follower
- 1 reply
- 776 views
Hi! Could anyone recommend a good 3rd party controller for the PS4? I need to rebind running button to something which is easy to access for constant pressing, like at the back or maybe use L1 or R1 instead. The standard fps setting with 'toggle to run' would work just fine for me but it's bugged when running forward, the character just goes back to walking speed immediately (running to the sides or backwards is fine). Rockstar support doesn't seem to care about that. Pressing down constantly on the left stick is super uncomfortable and makes my aim suck in standard fps setting and I use my thumb for both the right stick and X which requires way too much …

215Rate the Last Film you Watched 2: Electric Boogaloo
Subservience (2024) dir S.K. Dale Yet another mediocre sci-fi / thriller about AI and human-like robots. Michele Morrone plays Nick, a happily married father of 2 young children, struggling to raise them and do his construction site job since his wife (Madeline Zima) is seriously ill in hospital waiting for a heart transplant. So he buys Alice (Megan Fox), an almost completely life-like home-help / childcare / cook / cleaner robot. There are other similar robots working in many places such as hospitals, bars and construction sites (adding an additional plot element). Without spoilers (although IMHO there really isn't much to spoil) it's hard to say much more. But “stuff happens”, somewhat predictably if you consider the situation of wife in hospital, very hot nanny / maid robot at home etc etc. What is interesting is Alice starts to deviate from what she has been programmed to do, there's tensions with respect to a former colleague of Nick's, and these both lead to a reasonable action style tense ending with fights, shoot-outs and car chases. But overall it can only be described as OK. If you want action then watch an action film with more action than this. If you want drama then watch a drama film with more a more meaningful plot and better acting than this. There's some holes in the plot for me. Other than the robots it looks like present day. There is no other indication that this has to be either somewhat in the future or set in an alternative higher-tech reality. Nick's wife needs a new heart; if they have the technology to make such like-like robots (i.e. one that looks exactly like Megan Fox) then surely they would have mastered artificial organs for humans. Some of the other robots are too lifelike. I can understand Alice's appearance since she is designed to live in a home, although you might want to make such robots a bit less physically tempting a straight male owner. But there's no reason an entire synthetic construction site crew need to actually look like the humans' they replaced. And also no reason for them not be working constantly (the scene we encountered these is when they have been locked away for the night). There's one truly ridiculous aspect for me, for which I have knocked off another point for stupid prudishness. It has couple of mild s*x scenes. In one you can clearly see the actors are naked but without any full-frontal nudity. At one point the woman's breasts are briefly shown, but she has no n*pples! They must have been digitally removed. Why!? It's got enough to make it a 15 certificate, showing a couple of n*pples is surely not going to change that! There is one interesting plot element, but I have to put that with a spoiler warning. 4 / 10- 2
