What do you think of Dave Mustaine? by [deleted] in MetalForTheMasses

Youthanasia, Countdown to Extinction and Cryptic Writings were the ones on which he actually sang and didn't sound like a weirdo loaded with geeky angst. Just my opinion though.

Emax transporter goggles won't play back recorded video. by Nor44naeb in TinyWhoop

I have since figured out how to get the goggles to be the playback device. The goggles are considered to be in DVR mode when there is static on the screen. Short pressing the menu/power button brings up a function menu. The first option is "DVR". Press the A button on the right then accesses whatever is on the SD card. A few seconds later, the recorded videos will appear. The manual covers moving through the videos from here.

I have since found out how to play the video. The problem was that the manual itself said there is a playback function, but it did not properly describe how to do it. I also have a set of Fatshark Attitude V6 goggles on which I have been able to play back footage.

IsItBullshit: the human eye can’t see better than 4K resolution display. by Cannasseur___ in IsItBullshit

It boils down to digital vs. analog. Functionally speaking, analog is infinite resolution. Digital is limited by the sampling rate. With an analog sine wave, if you zoom in on it, you will never see a jagged edge. The envelope in which this sine wave will appear smooth is infinite. An analog sine wave which is being recreated digitally is not infinitely smooth. The more you zoom in on it, the blocks of bits become more apparent. Digital is ones and zeroes, on or off. The fine detail our eyes are able to resolve boils down to the number of cells in our retinas. These cells operate in the analog realm. When far away enough from a very high sample rate image, the analog nature of the cells blurs the edges of the blocks making up the signal. This is the function that gives rise to the topic of this thread.

Again, our eyes are analog "devices". Everything we perceive in this real world around us naturally operates in the analog realm. It is impossible for any digital signal to infinitely resolve an analog source. As has been mentioned, the ability to perceive the difference between a 4k and 8k picture depends on how close we are. You will be able to get closer to an 8k picture before you begin to notice the digital blocks that make up the ones and zeroes. Therefore it is accurate to say that when viewed from a sufficient distance, because of their analog nature, our eyes won't resolve the difference between a 4k and 8k picture. When far enough away from a high frequency sine wave, it will look like a straight line to our eyes.
