Monitors Unboxed’s latest 18 month OLED burn-in update is in and it’s mostly good news. Even after well over 4,000 hours of brutal, worst-case usage the YouTube channel’s 32-inch 4K QD-OLED panel is only just beginning to show sufficient signs of burn in to be “annoying.” Monitors Unboxed emphasises that their usage isn’t at all…

Climbing Mount Fay in Hollow Knight: Silksong is one of the game’s most elaborate platforming sections. In fact, it’s essentially an entire region devoted to a single challenging goal—climbing your way to the top of the mountain.
