Third party votes in a First Past the Post voting system are a protest at best and counter-productive at worst.

Those aren’t the best of the best but HDR should still look significantly better than SDR content.

Have you tried checking your settings to make sure things are configured correctly? Or maybe try using some of the smart tv apps and comparing HDR content on them vs content coming from an external device?

Jewish people tend to not be considered white even though they are oftentimes fair skinned, blue eyes, etc.

In the US, Italian and Irish immigrants also used to not be considered white either. It’s a label applied to groups when it’s most convenient. Doesn’t necessarily have a lot of logic behind it beyond racism.

If you move the slider all the way up you do lose color gradation, just FYI.

Which Samsung sets are you using? Some TVs look horrible with HDR whereas some look amazing. Since buying an LG CX I’ve been spoiled and desperate for more HDR content.

What’s your definition of fascism?

Sells like crazy. They really did deliver above and beyond their promises, even if the launch was VERY rough.

A philosophical argument that goes all the way back to Socrates.

One of my morning rituals is to lick all of the delicious morning dew off of my PC components. I’m not about to give that up!

Revenue is not profit.

Edit: Jesus. Their profit was $70b in FY 2022?! On $120b in revenue? Maybe I’m the one misunderstanding.

Bro is using that black mist filter.

I really should try that again. I had some of the original formulations of the powder but it REALLY didn’t agree with me, both in flavor, texture and what it did to my stomach.

Should be careful about losing more than 1-2% of your bodyweight per week. Regardless, that sounds like amazing progress! Congrats!

I have a Soylent Cafe most mornings on the way into work. It serves both as my first cup of coffee and also a 400 calorie breakfast. It’s $3/bottle which is more expensive than making food at home but I don’t have the time to prepare a meal before leaving for the day anyway. It’s also much cheaper and healthier than stopping or going through a drive thru.

My biggest concern is the amount of plastic as 3-4 bottles per week feels very irresponsible.

The flavor is pretty good but I miss the original Cafe Vanilla variety. That was really good.

I bought a Retroid Flip and have been really happy with it. I grew up with the game boy and have owned pretty much every iteration. Authentic is good but I think the utility of the android-based handheld can’t be beat. Especially given the high cost of the originals.

It’s in Boston, at the end of the Freedom Trail.

Second worst by which metric(s)?

Not going to argue that’s not the case. The root cause is not their age, though. Thats the point I’m trying to make.

That’s hardly the problem, imo.

“A society grows great when old men plant trees in whose shade they shall not never sit.”

Many of our actions will have consequences that will outlive us. The question is whether the institution is well equipped to behave ethically and just. One of he contributing factors is that all justices are of sound mind, regardless of age.

It’s the masks, isn’t it?
