FWIW, I agree in the vast majority of cases. I just restarted Alan Wake 2 and it's one of the very few times I can say they did it right, and it actually does look better with it on. (But I'm also playing with visual quality priority instead of framerate priority on a console, so probably not true on a powerful PC.)

    I did get it based on the reviews and played about two hours so far. I'll expound if you want, but I cannot at this point see a single reason to keep playing. The first two hours are a showcase of every tired, tedious misery from 2011-2014 that we don't really do in games anymore. Nothing in the gameplay is calling me back, and however interesting the plot may be eventually I also haven't found a single character I care about in the slightest. I deeply regret my purchase.

    I keep running into this bird in my neighborhood. (Coastal Suburb of Tampa Florida). Unfortunately I have my dogs with me so I can't get close. I think it's a chicken, or turkey possibly. Merlin, which is usually great, seems to ignore my location and keeps suggesting "Red Junglefowl".

    Any expertise you have to share is appreciated in advance. If it's helpful, this is the only one of these I've seen since I've lived here, and I spend a lot of time in preserves looking for animals. So either domestic fowl or something unusual going on.

     

    Relative novice, sorry if I get some details/terms wrong. Been running a KDE Plasma install for about 9 months and it's awesome. Since I did a last update from the desktop, the nighttime color temp settings don't change. It's always warm unless I manually suspend it. I tried undoing and redoing the setting. The clock is correct and settings all seem correct, but it won't cycle. Any help you have is appreciated in advance.
