Well, I guess I should post random made-up gobbledy gook seeds more often.

Misophonia is what drove me out of theaters years ago. All that food package rattling and low murmuring in the audience was just too distracting for me.

same. as my inet sucks i would have to stream in low quality if indeed i could get even that. so bluray is it for me.

i also have a denon 7.1 receiver with audyssey for eq and use my old 4x10" ampeg bass cab as a sub. all run off my home built HTPC of course. it does the trick.

misophonia sucks, so ive been into home theater for decades, even before it was cool.

I'd say this was a joke, but after Phillip's report and the mass porting of numbers from that phone provider I'm not so sure. Stay vigilant....

Very interesting article Torque. It's one I will probably read twice because there is so much stuff in there.

I've been a bit of an audio junkie for years now, and still use a LaserDisc player with AC3 output to a 5.1 discrete decoder. The nice thing about Laserdisc for older movies is that the sound guys usually spent a lot of time getting it right for the 5.1 THX quality releases, much better than the junk on the standard VHS tracks or even most DVDs. So something like Titanic or Jurassic Park really explodes into life in my living room in a way that just doesn't happen on the Dolby Digital stereo matrix tracks.

And AC3 at its' core is a 5.1 mix encoded into a 320 (35mm)/384kbps (AC3-RF) analog bitstream. Which isn't much bandwidth to the modern home. Even a Blu-Ray quality audio is 600kbps so if streaming services are doing it slower then they are just plain ass lazy.

I think the other items identified, especially the annoying tendency of "star" actors to ignore a click beat and improvise their fucking lines has a lot more to do with them being unintelligible. The movies "Cats" and "Les Miserables" are both excellent examples of key characters ignoring the click beat so they can add their own special "spin" to their lines (which make the damn things mumble speak that they try to fix in post)

Fun stuff!

Sure thing. How can they ban it again otherwise?

Other than what China has said, is there any reliable way to tell if a large portion of that hashrate isn't already coming from inside China?

Probably

Soon-ish

China allows BTC mining etc again

I couldn't agree more. Like you, I primarily watch movies I rewatch often only on blu-ray. People that only watch streaming movies have no idea what they are missing as far as the audio goes. The studios water down the surround sound to a 2.1 stereo mix for streaming purposes, and so much gets lost in the muddle, especially if they didn't remix it correctly. Or the TV itself has internal algorithms that will mix it down to a stereo mix that's not very good. Having blu-ray 5.1 or 7.1 surround-sound audio paired with a really great receiver/speaker setup makes a world of difference in movie enjoyment, especially with background music and the nuances of dialog.

I read a great article on this subject the other day:

Nice work, as always, but you may want to fix the Alpha channel at the edges, for those of us using Dark Reader or similar tools that adapt/adjust web site look. See below how it looks, as compared to my own avatar (correct Alpha). I've noticed this happening on some hats, but not all. In fact, most are fine, just a few have rough/jagged edges.

The same thing happened to sirazimuth's signature a while back. Someone made a version with a transparent background, but he didn't take care of the edges and it looked really jagged on a dark background. I think he has already updated it to a much better one, that does not have this issue.

Anyway, just a FYI, to make your near-perfect creations even better.

Could be a good new poll question.
