    Using this version of iPlayer got it working for me but I'm glad you found another way. Hopefully there are no further issues with it.

    Audiobooks like BBC's Roger Deakin Nature Collection, where both the narrator and their environment are recorded. www.audible.co.uk

    I love listening to audiobooks about nature, the environment, climate, hiking etc. One of my favourites is 'Roger Deakin: A BBC Nature Collection', specifically 'Cigarette on the Waveney', 'The House' and 'The Garden', as they are narrated by Roger himself and the recordings capture the environment Roger is in not just his voice. Are there other audiobooks recorded in this way that are worth listening to? Thanks for your help.

    There are potential pitfalls with procedural generation, and Starfield definitely did it poorly, but as a fan of TES since Daggerfall I'm happy to get behind this. I'm sure it's possible to make proc-gen work well and I'm hopeful they'll manage it. Only time will tell I guess.

    I can't say it's something I noticed, but I'm sure there will be options to adjust that. It also seems like the kind of game that will attract modders, just like all TES games.

    This new project from some of the folks who worked on the first 3 Elder Scrolls games looks great. It looks certain to be backed as well as it's already at 99% on Kickstarter with a couple more weeks to go. https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/oncelostgames/the-wayward-realms?ref=android_project_share

    Xbox Cloud Gaming Beta - Why is my latest save never synced?

    Is there a place on the Xbox or elsewhere where I can see the sync status of my saves, or better yet, is there a option for me to choose to sync certain saves? I ask as my latest save game is never synced when I come to use Xbox Cloud Gaming, making it utterly fuckin' useless. I even tried leaving my Xbox on for 20 minutes after saving, in the hope that if left doing nothing it would sync my saves, but nope. If I only wanted to play random old saves it would be fine, but that's hardly the point of this service I imagine. Is this service still in beta because is doesn't work well? For reference my Xbox and the device I'm attempting to stream on are both connected to via Wi-Fi to my 515Mb down 75Mb up broadband connection.

    I too stream IPTV, which is what the VPNs primary use is. I'm glad Mullvad has worked well for, it's the one in thinking of sticking with. Fortunately, I'm able to try it for a month for the same price I'd normally pay, unlike their competitors. The only thing that's holding Mullvad back are their comparatively poor apps.

    Moving away from Surfshark

    My Surfshark sub is almost up and I'm looking for my best option. I'm so glad this little community has popped up, as looking for reviews on Reddit and elsewhere online is next to impossible, since every review is simply an ad in disguise. I need a VPN primarily for streaming, so need it to be fast, and obviously security and privacy are key concerns too. I've narrowed down my choices to Mullvad, Proton or sticking with Surfshark. Surfshark has been ok, but I assumed there must be better out there. What are everyone's thoughts on the best performing service at the moment? Thanks.

    pcmasterrace PC Master Race Has anyone used the Palit Jetstream RTX 4080?
    Jump
  • AnAnonymousApe AnAnonymousApe 1 year ago 100%

    Thanks for the feedback. My thinking was if by going with Palit or Zotac I can get stretch my budget to include a 4080 (if going AM5) or 4090 if going (Z790 or B660 + 13600K) etc, then it would be worth it, providing these basic cards would prove reliable. I just don't know their reputation as I'm unfamiliar with the brands, since this will be my first gaming PC.

    Another week passes without word on more Xbox Studio's games, which is disappointing. There's little chance I'll be playing Starfield on GFN it seems. I may have to replace my rig instead, though I suppose either way Nvidia will get my money, sadly.
