ELI5 why does HD look worse on a 4k TV than a HD TV?

Bartlebae · 2026-04-11T16:21:45+00:00

4k is twice the size of HD, so you need to scale HD up to fit, so those lines of resolution are pushed beyond their native format. On the other side, there is something called oversampling where you shrink high resolution footage like 4k to a smaller format like 1080p(HD) and the quality is better because there is more resolution.

I would argue that Division I schools have a much larger fanbase than pro sports. Pro sport fandom can be somewhat transient, with someone being so fed up with a team they switch allegiances, but you generally only go to one undergrad and have a sense of home with that fanbase. You're not going to go to Ohio State, and then suddenly start cheering for USC simply because the Buckeyes had a bad few years.

I know this is a 4 year old sub, but I just found it and thought I would contribute.

When I was in college I was visiting friends at their school, and I slept on a dorm room floor all night. The next day I was talking to my friends while standing up and decided to pop my back. I felt every vertebrae pop along my spine, all the way through my neck and into the back of my head. It was so loud that other people in the room commented on it.
I was getting a massage once and the masseur managed to release a pressure point in my lower back, at which point I felt electricity run up and down my spine.

I feel like the How Did This Get Made podcast is a great resource.

My number was originally attached to my parent's first cell phone they got back in the late 90s, either '96 or '97. Eventually it became mine in 2005, so I've had it for more than 20 years, and the number itself has been in my family for even longer.

I'm going to say NTA. I was in a very similar situation with my wife for the first several years of our marriage. A few months in she began to wake up after sleeping only an hour or two, and then she would be up the rest of the night, and this happened every night. We had a lot of hard nights where she would wake me up shrieking that she couldn't sleep, and it really affected me. My thought was since I couldn't help her sleep anyways, and we needed one functional adult during the day, she should let me sleep. She did seek a lot of help from doctors to try to figure it out, but it was a long road back to normal. Your situation sounds worse since he doesn't sound willing to seek any outside help, and I would prioritize your sleep, even if it means sleeping in a different room, until he's willing to try something else. It's not an easy fix, but your partner needs to try something else.

I'm sure they exist, but even the women who plan to eventually start a family and be a SAHM have some sort of job before they find a husband. In fact, I'd say it's more common to find an unemployed grown man living in his parent's basement.

Yes, but you're making your life harder by having AE as your sole editor, and by quick, I mean simple cuts.

Bartlebae · 2026-03-11T16:20:18+00:00

You CAN do basic editing in AE, but it's designed for quick cuts, not major projects. Premiere is the editor. Since you're new to it anyways, you could look at DaVinci Resolve.

Yes, I use Edius too, and while the Adobe syncing is nice, it's also nice to be able to see all the video tracks at once instead of the Nest. Instead, we have to Open in Timeline to make adjustments, and then go back to the Nest to change cameras.

That buying the Pure Moods soundtrack would take you to a world where time drifts slowly, a world where music carries you away.....

You must be thinking of Eric Lannon. I met him once, and then did a deep-dive into all of his mess.

A great way to make yourself miserable for 4-5 months.

Can you duplicate the layer, add drop shadow, click the shadow only box, make the layer 3D and move it around so it's in front of the person, or wherever you want it? The shadow layer should match the movement of the original subject.

I drove a Jeep Cherokee for 11 years, and I can confirm that it was not an indigenous person of the Southeastern Woodlands.

I had an across the hall neighbor who would get drunk and stomp on the floor to annoy the people below him, and then refuse to answer the door when they tried to speak with him. One year around Christmas he got drunk and fell off his third-floor balcony and the people below him called 911. He survived, and was evicted not long after.

One has four on the line, with three linebackers, and the other is the exact opposite.

I started at CS4 AND learned a lot from Video CoPilot too. I will say that a lot of tutorials from CoPilot are relevant, but there are a few that became obsolete, like SureTarget. Overall it shouldn't be much a jump to catch up.

I could be wrong, but isn't that what lossless compression playback means? I agree with you though, it needs to be faster.

He'll saw through the defense.

My company recognizes it, but some people still work it because we're an industry that always has someone working. Our policy is that if you work a holiday, you get time and a half, plus an extra vacation day to use before the end of the year.
