  • Interesting: in that sense 4k would have slightly better brightness gradiation: if you average the brightness of 4 pixels there's a lot more different levels of brightness that can be represented by 4 pixels vs 1, which might explain the difference perceived even when you can't see the individual pixels.

    The maximum and minimum brightness would still be the same though, so wouldn't really help with the contrast ratio, or black levels, which are the most important metrics in terms of image quality imo.

  • While it is pretty subtle, and colour depth and frame rate are easily way more important, I can easily tell the difference between an 8k and a 4k computer monitor from usual seating position. I mean it's definitely not enough of a difference for me to bother upgrading my 2k monitor 😂, but it's there. Maybe I have above average vision though, dunno though: I've never done an eye test.

  • Thats pretty much what the NPR article says, the only populist interests he takes action on that might slightly conflict with billionaires interests is H1B visas:

    There was friction over H1-B work visas that Trump's core populists consider anathema but that his backers in the tech world depend on. It was a battle between the Bannon and Musk wings of Trump's movement.

    But that's also the only sort of populist interest his bigoted voters care about apparently.

  • Also would it kill all the sea life leading to a large amount of greenhouse gas emissions from all the decomposing fish corpses? Does undersea decomposition release greenhouse gases?
