I'm not watching that s*t

random mantle
#

the original live action one was terrible

steady fossil
#

They're remaking the live action again a second time?

neon hinge
#

Death Note in America

#

With a guy named Kira because can't say Killer propperly

#

In América.

steady fossil
#

Oh the one with N / M?

#

Mello / Near

neon hinge
#

Uh?

random mantle
#

White people in a animu movie

steady fossil
#

the second half

neon hinge
#

IDK

#

I'm not watching it

#

So IDC about the plot or characters

#

I just know is already bad

random mantle
#

the trailer has Kira getting the death note dropping from the sky

steady fossil
#

hm. idk. I already watch the other live action ones and they were kind of mediocre and rushed the story / changed it a bit because Movie

steady fossil
#

lol what

neon hinge
#

Hm?

random mantle
#

this is the trailer for that movie

steady fossil
#

It's... idk. It's an entirely different movie from the other Live Action ones

#

It doesn't look to great anyway... ._.

random mantle
#

this feels more like a new story

steady fossil
#

yeah

#

this doesn't look even recognisable to the old

#

Probably as I said because Movie

neon hinge
#

I mean, you can summarize how bad is it just with what I said

steady fossil
#

Because it's hosted on Netflix, idk what to say about it because I mean it's not trying to necessarily be a money grab

random mantle
#

Aren't most Netflix movies a moneygrab

steady fossil
#

idk. It's a subscription so you don't normally pay for netflix stuff specifically, you just pay for "everything"

#

it's not like them charging extra for it

#

I haven't had Netflix in a long while anyway though

#

must.. resist... eating.. peanut butter...

random mantle
#

i never used it

steady fossil
#

It's alright.... some stuff is kind of a ripoff though if it's blocked in your country and you need to pay extra to see more stuff

#

Like I'm pretty sure they had King of the Hill for example and they bumped it up to a higher pay service while I was midway through it

#

And often for some reason they have the really bad knockoff "Disney" movies and... they also have the second movie of something like Tarzan or whatnot but not the first movie?

#

And very often you'll see the animation quality of Second Disney Movies™ are just.... poor.

#

They don't have the same animation life in them as the first one

random mantle
#

BOE!

steady fossil
#

BoE from LFR? :p

neon hinge
#

Ah, I got my 5th with moonkin

steady fossil
#

you were going offline earlier >.>

neon hinge
#

When?

ashen parrot
#

xD

steady fossil
#

idk. Maybe I'm confused

#

oh well

random mantle
#

nite nite

ashen parrot
#

hm, so apparently my article is at 4500 words. About 750 of that is probably quoted text.

steady fossil
#

It's like the opposite of when I write essays :D

random mantle
#

my highest purple is 910 i has 2

neon hinge
#

if you mean 2 days a go or so

#

yes

#

neon hinge
#

But yesterday I had a meeting

steady fossil
#

I don't remember :p

neon hinge
#

And meetings always f* my sleeping time

#

starts buying tokens

ashen parrot
#

well my essay is also not a standard format

steady fossil
#

Essays and Articles aren't really the same I think?

neon hinge
#

Interest btw are you a journalist as such or you just like to write about videogames?

ashen parrot
#

it's basically "rip apart review jim sterling's review on Breath of the Wild"

#

i just like to write about videogames. Not an actual journalist.

neon hinge
#

Oki doki

#

Now I'm off

ashen parrot
#

My format is more in the way of "giant, insightful forum post"

steady fossil
#

I would write if I could get myself to do it more often. I actually like writing on certain topics but... bleh. I can't find the time and the feeling to get into it

ashen parrot
#

3800 words without quoted text. I was close.

#

I don't publish too often nowadays tbh

#

mostly because writer's block and procrastination.

steady fossil
#

I just procrastinate. I'd say writer's block but it's more so just starting that's a problem, not writing things itself

random mantle
#

i procastinate life ::P

Overwatch jokes

#

Talking about that, can anyone help me with internal files from Overwatch? I'm looking for the level portraits

steady fossil
#

C:\Games\Overwatch\data\casc\config\66\77

neon hinge
#

I guess I'll have to download it, yes

#

I used it a time ago with Heroes

steady fossil
#

This should be 4k quality at 3 monitors wide

bleak bloom
#

thats also an interesting idea for the style

#

like titans on one screen legion on the other and in the midst the planet with both, blue and green

steady fossil
#

He mainly requested it earlier was all. Although idk if 4k will work for him. I think he just has 1080p monitors

#

I'm still uploading the other ones. This takes so long for me to upload ;-;

bleak bloom
#

i toke one too

#

they look really nice

steady fossil
#

30 megabytes per file at 1mbps upload ☠

#

actually it's capped at .5 mbps because I literally destroy the router and kill the interet at 1mbps

neon hinge
#

I have 1080p

#

4k probably will be shown cutter up and down

#

I'm OK what that

inland rain
#

Hey does anyone know if Blizzard has an official ddiscord server?

steady fossil
#

Eh it's like

#

the unofficial official discord server

bleak bloom
#

there is no blizzard server, but there are servers for all classes and from the different communities like reddit

steady fossil
#

But no they don't have any "Official" server

#
inland rain
#

oh ok thanks guys!

neon hinge
#

I wonder why do he even want in an official Blizzard discord server

#

Salt?

inland rain
#

what no I was just curious... Nothing against this one.

neon hinge
#

I know

#

I was just referring to the salty forums Blizzard have

Should start very soon

ashen parrot

#

oh god you know what would be an awesome dream team?

neon hinge
#

No, a mayybe announce of SC BW HD

ashen parrot
#

Monte and Totalbiscuit doing Shoutcraft Kings

neon hinge
#

I'd like Monte to cast SC tho

#

oh yesss you know what is good haha

ashen parrot
#

I really do enjoy both as casters

neon hinge
#

I'm very happy to have monte in OW anyway

#

He did awesome in League

ashen parrot
#

Agreed.

neon hinge
#

And blizzcon was ❤

ashen parrot
#

I may not always agree with his opinions, but I do think he has the interests of the scenes he casts in mind.

neon hinge
#

gsl stream just went online

ashen parrot
#

For example, his thoughts on the League scene...

#

wewlad. They were pretty good points.

neon hinge
#

Oh, artosis and the other guy casting

ashen parrot
#

something something poopfeast420

neon hinge
#

I forgot his name xD

#

Tasteless?

ashen parrot
#

maybe. o.0

what I'm referring to btw

neon hinge

Yesm us tasteless

#

And artosis

#

OMGGGGGGG

OMG this guy was a legend

He's still a legend

That's why it went out of stock!

i actually wanted to go play that

Wait 'til summer then 😛

ashen parrot
#

is there a remastered warcraft 3 in the works I wonder..

neon hinge
#

And yeah, SC2 doesn't support LAN. xD

#

Bisu, FlaSh...

#

Stork...

#

God Lord, that's really THE LEGENDS

ornate loom
#

nite Everyone

neon hinge
#

I wonder if they have Jaedong too

ashen parrot
#

i like the remaster

#

it still resembles the original

#

rather faithfully

#

but no annoying antialiasing issues, or rather, a sheer lack of AA lel

neon hinge
#

Same models but w/out pixels XD

ashen parrot
#

basically no AA vs good AA

neon hinge
#

Kinda, yes

#

SC it's a 96 game

#

I expect WC3 remaster tbh

ashen parrot
#

but yeah it's nice to see the models get more polygons than the frostwolf howler

neon hinge
#

There's a video comparision

#

In what's new

#

It's pretty

ashen parrot
#

it feels like the graphics got a sc2-level touchup

#

really nice comparison though

#

Incidentally, on WC3

#

it might be harder to remaster it tbh

#

i have been playing it and well

#

it's solid

#

graphically

#

there's some weird polygon stuff but yeah

neon hinge
#

Starcraft 1.17 is good on modern computers too

#

It has been patched for work smoother

ashen parrot
#

yep

#

wc3 got it too, hence why i'm playing

#

I was streaming it until the damn streaming issues came up though

neon hinge
#

Streaming issues?

ashen parrot
#

basically, i'm having enormous amounts of frame drops when I stream

#

the last stream, I dropped nearly 40%

#

I called my ISP. Probably going to have another talk after another streaming test

#

But I've been seeing signs that the node here is failing

#

Lots of lag during high traffic times. Data showing that there's a nice red cloud of problems over my area, etc.

fallen nexus
#

Well..

#

99% of the time it's not the node failing

#

it's almost always case of the ISP oversubscribing the node, overworking it until it's a literal bottleneck and no-one is able to achieve anything.

ashen parrot
#

Well either way the point is it's a problem on their end. I just like using the term "node" to describe that.

#

I also heard rumors that Comcast throttles the upstream to Twitch's ingest.

fallen nexus
#

meh

#

not really

#

I have friends who are engineers / level3's over at Spectrum

#

I had the same issue as you are having a few months back, I complained ot L3 enough that they sent an entire crew out here to my area to install a completely new node.

#

Then link me a .txt filled with your results

ashen parrot
#

to which of the services?

#

any?

fallen nexus
#

When you are streaming, what data center do you choose?

ashen parrot
#

I usually choose the closest - Seattle

#

otherwise, I go for LA

fallen nexus
#

Choose Aegwynn

#

That's a LA based server

#

It should give us the best results

ashen parrot
neon hinge
#

Oh Interest, SC remaster can handle 4k xD

fallen nexus
#

That works!

ashen parrot
#

too late xD

#

i didn't find anything too outstanding tbh

#

but then again, I didn't expect to

fallen nexus
#

PING:
PING 67.183.81.25 (67.183.81.25) 56(84) bytes of data.

--- 67.183.81.25 ping statistics ---
4 packets transmitted, 0 received, 100% packet loss, time 5000ms

ashen parrot
#

guess i missed that

#

fun times

neon hinge
ashen parrot
#

i actually misread that

neon hinge
fallen nexus
#

Give me a sec and I can point you to the actual node that you are having issues with.

#

IF it is a node.

ashen parrot
#

GOAT?

neon hinge
#

I guess Game of All Time

#

I guessed wrong

fallen nexus
#

Albeit, it's not bad, but this Denver, CO node is where it starts going downhill.

neon hinge
#

goat
Greatest
Of
All
Time

fallen nexus
#

It jumps from a 4-5ms hop, to a 34-35ms hop

#

Which just mimics all the way down the line until it hits Blizzard.

ashen parrot
#

fun times.

#

that would explain things

fallen nexus
#

Can you run another test for me?

ashen parrot
#

sure

fallen nexus
#

Re-run the MTR and upload the .txt

#

Only the MTR

ashen parrot
#

anddd it's staying at 0% xD

#

oh nvm

fallen nexus
#

In this case, you'd just replace Blizzard with 'X' server.

#

It's highly likely that Twitch.TV and Blizzard use the exactly same datacenters

ashen parrot
#

i wish twitch had more tools for this

#

incidentally, I also have been using Twitch Test

#

this is typically what it looks like

#

and I've been doing some things on my end, like upgrading cables and the like

steady fossil
#

Why no Alaska? :^)

ashen parrot
#

80 is like the bare minimum for quality level in terms of having a watchable stream but there is still frame dropping

#

in general, it should be 100

neon hinge
#

Why Alaska? 😛

fallen nexus
#

The thing is, it's not nearly bad enough for comcast to do anything about.

#

Especially when even on the MTR, it sits at.. 34ms?

ashen parrot
#

still, when I drop 4/4 packets

#

hum

#

well I do have a theoretical solution

#

that I hate using

fallen nexus
#

Wait, what's your upload KBPS set to?

ashen parrot
#

it's like 2500

#

way lower than the amounts in that test

fallen nexus
#

yeah, 2500 is pretty much where it needs to sit

ashen parrot
#

I've been using about that amount for years. 2500-3000

neon hinge
#

have 10kbps on obs

fallen nexus
#

I stream 720p/60FPS on 2500 without any issues at all.

ashen parrot
#

I usually do 720/30

fallen nexus
#

I only do that when I am streaming console games.

ashen parrot
#

it was on an older computer

#

i probably should change it

fallen nexus
ashen parrot
#

either way, I did check my OBS logs to see if it was because I set the bitrate poorly

fallen nexus
#

That moment when you go AFK in front a mining node for so long, that it respawns 😂

ashen parrot
#

I kinda don't have those. I think I lost them

fallen nexus
#

Poor settings is a fairly normal problem.

ashen parrot
#

yeah

#

but I've been doing this for a while and always try to fine-tune

fallen nexus
ashen parrot
#

and it did work...until I stopped streaming for a year and came back

fallen nexus
#

Nothing crazy.

ashen parrot
#

i basically got zero frame drops

fallen nexus
ashen parrot
#

thoughts on lanczos?

#

I usually prefer towards that

fallen nexus
#

Nothing wrong with it.

ashen parrot
#

I heard it's bicubic if you don't downscale, lanc if you do

#

oh well

fallen nexus
#

\ ¯_(ツ)_/¯

neon hinge
#

What CPu do you have, T?

#

i7-7770k?

ashen parrot
#

i'm going to guess gen 6

fallen nexus
#

i7-4790k

neon hinge
#

Oh..

#

both wrong

ashen parrot
#

oh hey I use that one too

#

it's good

fallen nexus
#

it's very good

neon hinge
#

I've i7-3930k

fallen nexus
#

still the mainstream workhorse of the i7 series

ashen parrot
#

imo it really does compete fairly well even with gen 5 and 6 cpus

fallen nexus
#

my specs are as-follows

#

Intel Core i7-4790K @ 4.0GHz

• EVGA GeForce GTX 670

• Corsair Dominator Platinum 16GB

• MSI Z97-G45 Z87

• Samsung 850 EVO-Series 250GB (x2)

• Seagate Barracuda 2TB HDD (x1)

• EVGA SuperNOVA 1000 G2

• Corsair Hydro H100i

#

albeit, the SSD portion hasn't been updated in quite some time

neon hinge
#

I was just curious

fallen nexus
#

and yes, I still run the 4GB GTX670 😂

ashen parrot
#

personally built?

fallen nexus
#

yep!

ashen parrot
#

awesome.

fallen nexus
#

Doing a test-stream with my setting posted earlier

#

Looks to be fine

#

Haven't touched it in quite some time.

ashen parrot
#

I'll probably do one sometime this week

#

since I play a lot of team overwatch now, meaning I actually plug in a headset

neon hinge

Damn, Stork won versus JD

#

Oh, you still use the old OBS T

ashen parrot

I got cheated on a month after dating.... idk what to really feel now...

neon hinge
#

Joder...

#

sends a virtual hug

#

Life is a b** sometimes

warm hedge
#

feel yourself kappa. no srsly. focus on you and remember who you were before you started to fall apart cause your happiness is whats important. take a you-cation.

steady fossil
#

idk.. it just makes me question what's wrong with me... like I mean I finally felt like I found somebody who actually liked me and such. I was actually able to feel happy with somebody and kind of secure.... ._.

#

like we were friends for a really long time, but then started dating not long ago. We already had feelings for eachother but...

#

I guess I just wasn't good enough or something

neon hinge
#

No

warm hedge
#

yeah love bites sometimes but guess what, you can bite back. its not you its them.

neon hinge
#

It's never about you

#

Never ever

#

Also, love doesn't have standard

warm hedge
#

you are good enough, sometimes the right people enter at the wrong time at one or both peoples lives

neon hinge
#

If he/she truly loved you the cheat would never exist

warm hedge
#

that too

neon hinge
#

Also what artic says

warm hedge
#

an on the flip sometimes someone you think is right for you or destined even turns out to be a total flop and isnt meant for your heart even if its hard to chew on at first

neon hinge
#

I dated a girl when I was 17-18 and we went good but then bad and we broke up

#

Because I was young, because she was young

#

And it wasn't the time

#

Anyway, you'll find someone better, you'll always find someone better

#

If I did... Anybody can.

steady fossil
#

idk we've known each other since I began high school so like 6 years ish...

#

She was kind of one of the only friends I really had here. ._.;

neon hinge
#

Love sometimes destroys friendship

warm hedge
#

i tried to make things work with a girl i knew almost 12 yrs it wouldnt budge so i stopped trying.

steady fossil
#

12 years is a hell of a long time o.O

warm hedge
#

1 directional relationships end up in 2 parts heartbreak

#

yeah 12 yrs of that then the next 15 in pain

#

i have the worst luck with girls tbh

steady fossil

It kind of sounds like it lol

neon hinge
#

My longest relationship is my current one

warm hedge
#

constantly turned down in school for dances prom i got turned down both junior an senior year an homecoming junior year got lead on then stood up night of dance.

#

so yeah. v.v

steady fossil
#

Not to go crazy into specifics, but.. idk. I've never really felt attraction much. It took a long time to really even feel connected in any way outside of being friends. ._.
Like, I like both genders but I don't... love both genders, you know?

#

lol I never went to any proms or anything

#

screw those. disappointment waiting to happen or somethinglol

neon hinge
#

When I was 17 I thought my bf was the last I'll ever had

#

I was wrong

#

And at 18 I thought the same with that girl

warm hedge
#

lol if i knew then that homecoming and prom were gonna turn out the way they did i wouldve stayed home an saved my money lmao

neon hinge
#

And I was wrong, again

#

And now I'm in a 3yo relationship, and I think the same way

#

I'll be wrong? Maybe. Or maybe not :D

warm hedge
#

i cant make love work with people around here so i tried doing things online an using different sites that never worked either lol

#

not even on wow gg

neon hinge
#

Keyboard, do you know what's the best against heartbreaks?

steady fossil
#

I'll sometimes post stuff like the wallpaper because I want to display something but.. not like... that much and it's very often things get downvoted into the ground if you say anything remotely controversial at all or "anti-consensus".

#

Uh. I have no idea

and it says it's the wrong password

so I click login again (because it auto-filled it in again)

and it logs me in

I'm speechless.

the real question is

#

why did you click login again?

#

it didnt work the first time

#

why do it a second time?

steady fossil
#

maybe it'll work

#

¯_(ツ)_/¯

bleak bloom
#

thats madness

neon hinge
#

It worked. XD

steady fossil
#

I didn't want to open up my USB to check my password so

neon hinge
#

I'm afk

steady fossil
#

I thought I'd give it another try

bleak bloom
#

did it redirect? most times you can login everywhere on the page but if you login with the wrong pw it redirects you to the real "login" page

steady fossil
#

maybe I pressed a key or something on the home screen though. It was on the home page and then when it couldn't log me in it brought me to a log in page instead. So I think the PW is different on the home page than the login page

Dragon was like, "Nope, animatronic or not, this is a bad idea"

#

she is now holding all four films on bluray like, "See? proof..."

fresh osprey
#

jurassic park was only a bad idea because they didnt have a backup generator and built the island in a stupid location

#

not to mention that you cant complete dino DNA with frogs

versed pebble
#

isle of wight would have been perfect

fresh osprey
#

you could use birds

versed pebble
#

or Guernsey

fresh osprey
#

too cold

#

dinos are tropical

#

mostly

#

also

#

an island doesnt have enough food

versed pebble
#

indeed, heated pens, they leave, they die

fresh osprey
#

that would cost too much

#

tropical place that doesnt get too many earthquakes or storms

versed pebble
#

we could get Richard Bransn to pay for it

fresh osprey
#

or build it underground

#

honestly on an island, escape isnt the problem

#

the problem with jurassic park is the generator thing

#

the fences in zoos dont rely on electricity

#

the fences shouldve been physically strong enough to withstand 3x the force of the dinosaurs

#

they were built of electric wire

#

and steel beams

#

thats poor design

#

even zoos dont do that

versed pebble
#

so, are we doing this?

#

I say we do it in Florida

Okay but how do you put a dinosaur on display if you're going to lock him up in the equivalent of fort knox?

versed pebble
#

large paddock with monorails over

#

slow mono rail with voice overs from Patrick Stewart

#

and Jeff Goldblum, cos irony

wide cipher
#

Hmm

#

alright

#

i do think though that one thing we need to do

#

Is keep the dinos busy. I think instead of feeding via means of goat, we should encourage them to hunt in their paddocks

#

dinos are like cats, if you don't stimulate a cat he's just an asshole all the time

versed pebble
#

agreed

#

in fact, we can pay for it by letting red necks with itty bitty shot guns hunt the trex, then get eaten

lets sell a ticket to that event to my father in law

give the red necks shotgun blanks?

TL;DR he and his team are redesigning the quests and their text with voice overs.

This was actually a project I was thinking about a long time ago but never really got around to because, you know, money and voice actors and stuff.

versed pebble
#

cool

fresh osprey
#

related to the dinos

#

you definitley still need to do it on an island

#

and it has to be big enough

#

maybe one of the larger islands in the caribbean

versed pebble
#

Africa?

fresh osprey
#

not wet enough

#

you need an island

#

if two small dinos got out

#

it could wreck havoc

#

it needs to be isolated

#

tropical

#

but also not too far from civilization

#

im thinking near cuba or indonesia

versed pebble
#

what about Australia?

fresh osprey
#

too dry

#

australia is mostly desert

#

if you are willing to bring in water

#

australia would work

#

lots and lots of land

#

i mean

#

bringing back reasonable populations of dinosaurs would require tons of money

#

so if they have that kind of money

#

im sure terraforming and desalination would be negligible

versed pebble
#

yeah, thats why I thought Aus, cos it has plenty of remote areas, and already has connections, so easy to get to

wide cipher
#

okay hold up fam

#

peach

#

you do realise

#

that the island didn't stop them because there's a whole movie about how they were smart enough to get ON THE BOATS right?

versed pebble
#

and some fly

fresh osprey
#

thats BS tho

#

also flying ones was bad from the beginning

#

it shouldnt be possible

#

if you build a place correctly, animals shouldnt be able to break out no matter what

but jurassic park made that knowledge hard to spread among the public

fresh osprey
#

velociraptor and utahraptor were big

not huge

though that was actually a tiger, but eh

#

You can keep anything as a pet if you treat it right and know what you're getting into

versed pebble
#

utahraptor was huge yeah, but the jurassic park ones weren't Velociraptor or utahraptor

fresh osprey
#

jurassic park ones are closest to utahraptor

#

they had the big claw

#

the problem with that @wide cipher is we dont know how their brains work

how they moved, how strong they were

but not how they thought

most raptors have the claw, even chickens do today

raptors have a claw, but utahraptor had a claw much larger than its other claws

It started as a discussion on mobile game monetization. Might not be an expert but... the appstores should kind of speak for themselves.

#

Stagnant but um...totally successful I guess not because of other broad conepts like the fact there's a giant pool of users or huge general accessibility.

#

But really though, it led me to make this chart. Maybe it'll help someday.

steady fossil
#

mmmmmmm

ashen parrot
#

It's not the best chart but should make a point

steady fossil
#

I get why companies do it but I still find it annoying.

#

I personally only ever play a dumb little Tetris app which just has an interrupting ad after you lose, but it isn't that bad

#

But I know some other games like... what was it, CandyCrush? They did that

ashen parrot
#

interrupting ad?

#

is it a banner or you had to watch an ad for some number of seconds

steady fossil
#

No. It's weird lol

ashen parrot
#

(aka a video ad)

steady fossil
#

it just pops up an ad like once full screen you have to click away

💩

#

and it never comes up again until like 10 seconds after you lose

#

and repeat

ashen parrot
#

Oh well that's what I'd just consider a banner ad.

#

Out of all the ways to force someone to view an ad that's probably the least worst way to do it.

steady fossil
#

It's definitely not bad, just has a possibility to interrupt your game if you start it within those 10 seconds, and then you just click exit and go on with the game

ashen parrot
#

it could probably be done better. I've run into similar. There's a reason I have a tendency to install, then uninstall, arcade games on my phone.

and yeah.. in america you can choose to have insurance or not

where i live you have no choice

its the law to be insured or something

sucks because i could use that money to buy food instead

#

my teeth arent the best either but luckily they dont hurt on most things

wide cipher
#

well no, it's not a choice

#

I would have had dental if it was ever offered at the places I worked at, but it wasn't.

#

the dental I have now only covers cleanings and simple extractions. It won't even cover surgical removals (which most of my teeth left are) or dentures, implants, fillings, any of that.

#

And it IS the law here to be insured now. They're supposed to provde you with a range of options with varying coverage and subsidies so that youc an afford it

#

but in our state they gutted things and the only insurance plans available that we could afford were through my husband's work; Those plans offer the bare minimum of requirements and we can't afford anything else, and the state decided we didn't qualify for subsidies.

#

what we need is even MORE strides in health care reform, really

#

I'm 37 years old and I can't even eat most nutritious food, and my insurance fights with each other about who is supposed to cover what and then forces huge deductibles before it'll even kick in, which leaves me with no option but to suffer through constant infections and pain. And I only say this to drive home how bad the state is here for Americans who aren't making enough money. Which is a lot of us.

The opening line of a book is extremely important, as it has to be intriguing and powerful enough to capture the reader's imagination. Then, the second line has to intensify the intrigue.

When searching for a file in W10, it only searches for the term that's in the beginning of the file name. So if you have a file "QuesoBlanco" and you search "Blanco," it won't find it unless you do "System.Filename:~=Blanco" in the search bar.
