Showed this to a German friend who had me er seen it last time he stayed with me in the UK. It was such a staple to me and my friends I was shocked he hasn’t seen it!

I’ve had wallpapers of the latest McLaren F1 cars for the last few years. In my case this is from the official McLaren website but sometimes the official ones are a bit pants.
On the plus side it now looks less like a dog’s… Erm… Lipstick.
A band-aid. Though in most circumstances it would just be a “plaster”.
Mass Effect - Legendary Edition on Steamdeck. Coming up to the end of ME2 now and having a blast replaying games I haven’t touched since I was a teenager.
As a Brit who misses the EU a lot they always did a lot right but are underappreciated by the people living in it.
Grabbed Mass Effect Legendary Edition on sale for £4.99 and having a blast. Completed the first game last night and now started on the second one. Runs like a dream, EA launcher didn’t cause any issues (I loaded it in desktop mode the first time) and the game is as good as I remember from first time around.
The only issue I’m having is when I use the HDR calibration in game I wind up losing a bunch of detail in dark areas and the image overall is way too dark.
I’ve also picked up subnautica ready to give it a proper go at some point after picking it up and it not quite gripping me on game pass on desktop.
I’ve never been a Linux guy but recently I’ve switched to Pop!OS on my laptop and bought a Steam Deck. Other than a few teething issues with the laptop I’ve had a great experience and I wouldn’t consider myself ridiculously tech savvy. I’d absolutely consider switching my gaming PC over but my worry is loss of performance and being unable to use my game pass games. I’d be super happy if I could switch my PC over in the next couple of years.
The Wedding at Cana by Paolo Veronese is hung opposite the Mona Lisa and honestly was far more worth seeing as far as I’m concerned. It was also mostly ignored by people desperate to get their selfie with a postage stamp-sized painting for their social media.
Just picked up the Legendary Edition Mass Effect Trilogy for £4.99 to play on the Steam Deck. Read a few guides online which made it sound pretty complicated to get set up but actually just doing the initial load of the game in desktop mode and logging into EA there has meant it now works through the standard deck mode without a hitch. Great game for the deck and (touch wood) performance seems pretty solid.
I was at a random hotel in London for work and was wearing a pretty nice suit. There was a mirrored column near the door and nobody about so I was adjusting my jacket since I’d been wearing a backback. The girl who worked behind the reception (probably 23 and quite attractive, I’m 36) walked past and said “Hey, you look really good.”
Absolutely made my day and I even excitedly told my girlfriend when I got home. It was possibly the only unprompted compliment from a stranger I’ve ever received.
You’re joking right? I’m in the UK and every bugger going has a Merc or a BMW.
OOTL… What revelation?
It did!

Honestly I think it was keeping the “styling” prompts the same (volumetric lighting, artstation, concept art, fantasy, intricate) while varying other themes. Sometimes it strayed a little when I removed things so I added them back in. Sometimes I removed them to get a particular look. It’s all just experimentation.
I love this and would love to buy a print/support the artist but the only place I see to get hold of her is Reddit.
