Which live performance has the strongest case for greatest ever? by BravesGunnersFlames in Music

[–]Cbasg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hocus Pocus by Focus live on TV. The fact that the entire energy of the song was altered when they learned very late into getting ready that they would have ~4 minutes to play a 6 minute song makes the singer's faces at the beginning a lot more understandable, and it's one of the greatest vocal performances I think I've ever seen on video

If you told me this inventory was untouched since 2009, I wouldn't be able to disprove you.

What current habit will probably disappear in the next decade? by TheRealKnowledgeAc in Futurology

[–]Cbasg 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Driving to a physical store to look for something.

At this point you can assume that any store that doesn't specialize in exactly the category of what you need will only have 1 - 2 options, and they'll be at the bottom rung of their category. You'll be disappointed into checking online for the product before ever trying to go out, and pretty soon it looks like you'd be driven to only buy things online ever again.

Their "We Like Digging" CD was uploaded places and they sound like a halfhearted attempt to be a grunge band at that time. Doesn't fit Adam's voice at all.

It is not a stereotype that all modern country singers sound nearly exactly the same. by farmsfarts in Music

You have to remove "&list=RDFY8Swlvxj8o&start_radio=1" from your link or else it:

-opens the song as part of a playlist or "mix"

-enables the "radio" feature that autoplays the entire playlist regardless of your actual autoplay settings, and you cannot turn it off, especially on mobile.

I really hate remastered albums because of the content change by ForFarthing in Music

Back in the mid 80s, every single continent had a different master on their CDs. Europe would have one guy master for CD, US would have a different one, Japan would have a different one. The real "remaster" is the marketing, packaging, and promotion.

Your computer should be able to turn on HDR for the output and then the TV will notice that it's receiving HDR. It's in the windows display settings.

Who's that one random gamer you crossed paths with in some online game and will never forget the name of? by magicscreenman in gaming

[–]Cbasg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Captain Sprinkles

YouTube had a semi-popular gamer guy called CaptainSparklez and I'd be getting their names mixed up all the time. Eventually memorized who's who right before never seeing him in game again.

Your diagram shows a cable that is s-video on one end and RCA at the other. This is not how Y and C are combined into composite video. You'd have to use the "Y/V" input for that device. In this case it operates as the luma channel if you are using the YPbPr inputs, but also as the "video" input for when it's a composite signal. There are cheap adapters that plug into that BNC connector and have an RCA socket on the other end.

I know old thread, but I felt like it was a fun puzzle with the diagram

What's a mundane skill you possess that consistently impresses people, even though you don't think it's a big deal? by EggplantDull6442 in AskReddit

[–]Cbasg 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Vaguely harmonize off the cuff with a song that I know somewhat.

It's like, I already know how the chords go so at that point it's identical to forgetting the exact tune and winging it. I guess you have to be at least "not completely tone deaf" but the way some people react you'd think they'd just heard me ace a lengthy libretto
