Depends on your setup. On my 100 inch projector screen you can immediately tell when it's not 4k. And low bitrates (like Netflix) become especially noticable with rubber banding and loss of sharpness.

But they always do.

I always buy from GOG if it's available. But I use it for my own convenience and I don't share it with others as that would be piracy.

I gave up encoding movies with Handbrake. I can always see the difference in the resulting picture quality and if I don't, the file is probably only reduced from 80gb to 70gb and it's not worth it.

I usually just rip the blu-rays, strip out the unnecessary languages and leave the rest as it is.

80 gb is not a lot for movies. My average 4K movie is between 60 and 80 gb per movie. If you start encoding and compressing them you start seing compression artifacts and reduction in quality very quickly.

My advice: don't compress movies if you can. Just get more storage. Storage is relatively cheap these days.

Doesn't address the point that humans would be equally deceived by this wall if they don't pay 100% attention.

All he said was that he doesn't care and some other nonsensical stuff. This comment doesn't add anything. Not even an expression of an opinion.

But to be fair: the response doesn't add much either.

My point is that as soon as everyone around you finds it cheaper and more convenient to use your "service", game developers will double down on their DRM efforts.

That's why you can never have nice things in this wold. Some people will always abuse it.

Not surprised.

Funny is, an AI saying "Fuck Trump" is probably the least biased thing it could say as it's probably the most used phrase on the internet these days.

A search engine also impedes your thinking.

He never said the commenter was worthless.

A natural instance is ideologically biased aswell.

This goes agaist everything de-DRM. This is basically piracy if you share it with friends and family. DRM sucks. But this will make DRM even more important. Projecs like this will kill every de-DRM movement.

What does the commenter mean then? How do you fight with a broom without violence?

Get something with a good mic. You and your friends will thank me later.

I've got the Razer BlackShark V2. Don't know whether it's the best but the mic sounds almost like a studio mic. Never had any issues with it.

Not entirely. There are many theories by various philosophers that suggest some forms of authoritarianism as the ideal form of government. Thomas Hobbes for example.

It's not always bad either. There are many scenarios where a central authority can solve a lot of problems much more efficiently.

If this question is sincere then it's not a stupid question at all.

Gdpr only applies to EU citizens. But your account is anonymous. How would they know you're not?

I gave up encoding with handbrake. It looks much worse after the fact 99% of the time, no matter which settings I use.

You apparently have no clue what you're talking about.
