  • No, abstract thinking is unnecessary when talking about media.

  • Yeah, thought I'd be sneaky and push a barely known author forward. You caught me, soo clever.

    • How is it possible that a laptop can read a CD flawlessly, but every other device I've tried the CD on skips at certain parts?

    Jump

  • Yes bad cd, just the laptop cd drive can read with greater error checking (parity?) to achieve skip free playing.

    It's scary how much is clipped away from music with compression and poor playback equipment. Sometimes the right setup really changes the song.

  • A writer, you'd like him, he has some great stories with puzzles using iconography and word games etc to weave modern tales with a touch of history.

  • Cd drives in computers are more technical than standard stereo players due to their nature of writing to cds. Think higher quality, more accurate equipment.

    Edit to add: I remember this was an issue Sony faced, it was selling higher quality dvd players in its PlayStation 2 cheaper than its standalone dvd player series.

    • What’s your best Essex Girl joke?

    Jump

  • It's tricky to define but it has to do with proximity to London (Capital city) and the developing existence of influencers or (it girls) as they were known, combined with poor education and you had a generation of glamorous idiots, that were identified as being from Essex early. Think early Kim Kardashian such as Jordan https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Katie_Price

    • How could the EU do this??

    Jump

  • Don't like those arrows pointing at the UK, feels a bit Dad's Army.

    • When the Braincell hits

  • It was all being a bit funky yesterday. Sorted now thanks.

    • The RAM sticks I just bought off eBay

  • Idk, everything they do proves they are the enemy. Don't even pretend otherwise. Edit: you know the centralist criticism. That's it right there.

  • That's just you being weak and not sticking to your beliefs, I'd hate to be that pathetic.

    • What is an obscure piece of media or videogame that you think nobody else here has heard of?

  • The cost is having to support amazon though.

    • Animal shelters overflow as Americans dump 'pandemic puppies' in droves. They're too broke to keep their dogs

    Jump

  • "Jesus christ, why do people blame the dogs"

    Then goes on to explain that it is in fact, the dogs.

    • When somebody laughes at your Facebook post, but you were being serious

    • Beeper's next iMessage for Android fix requires access to a Mac

    Jump

  • I don't disagree, just explaining it, and recognising it is the sub 25 year old age bracket explains a lot.

    • Volkswagen Will Bring Back Physical Buttons In New Cars | Down with touch screen controls.

    Jump

  • Just not with emmisions, or government supported market manipulation.

    • Beeper's next iMessage for Android fix requires access to a Mac

  • Fine, you are not personally affected by it, but the social disparity that is highlighted by people's need to feel exclusive and yet part of a tribe is the reason.

    • Is it normal that I feel pretty bad for ignoring homeless people begging for help? How do others ignore them without feeling bad?

    Jump

  • SMR has already admitted they lack empathy elsewhere in the thread so no surprise you made then feel attacked.

    • Does anyone else feel like 90% of the population is stupid?

    Jump

  • That's a significant insight. It's only once you've been in a car with someone driving that you really become aware of how "awake"(?) They are. Observance and prediction seem to come with higher intelligence, and some people do not have it.
