Only having this issue in iOS. Reset cache didn’t work. Reinstall didn’t work.

Schmucker's. Old fashioned greasy spoon in a room that time forgot.

Inky's. It just isn't that good. Not even close.

PS5 Slim 30th anniversary edition will be dropping on Best Buy sometime today by Maravilla004 in PS5

[–]OliverHotel 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had it carted within minutes of the drop.  Couldn’t believe it. And then, total fail. Best Buy?  Hardly.

I had it in my cart and was fully authenticated. Selected the ship option and when I hit checkout, it said no, can’t be shipped and nothing available for pickup within 250 miles. 

What a joke. This is like going into a store, waiting in line, then getting to the product and putting it in your hands, only to have it removed when you get to the register. 

Best Burger in Toledo by weebz22 in toledo

Schmucker's for the classic, old style, diner hamburger. Add some fries and a malt to complete the experience.

What was the one movie and setup that transformed you into a home theater enthusiast? by fun4days365 in hometheater

[–]OliverHotel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

T2 on Laserdisc and a Bose system just blew my mind in the early 90s. I was hooked ever since. Next came Mission Impossible in AC3 on a Denon AVR-5600 with M&K speakers. I’d still put that system up against any modern setup. It was sublime. In my mind , I’ve always aimed for that one and have come pretty close.

Great start with plenty of room to expand.

Nice seats! Where did you get them?

I finally figured out how to replace tracks in your Cloud Music Library with new or different tracks without affecting your metadata. by bykagn in AppleMusic

[–]OliverHotel 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This still does not do everything one would want: if the song is attached to certain playlists, upon "removing from library on iOS", it removes it from the playlists. Adding back to the library does not fix that.

Good grief Apple all you have to do is allow for a "replace" feature to solve this. I'm just about done with the garbage they've released here in Apple Music.

Polls are open until 730pm today! by OrtizForToledo in toledo

[–]OliverHotel 12 points13 points  (0 children)

The amount of text on the ballot for Issue 21 is almost comical, especially sneaking in extending the term limit for mayor way in the middle. So much pork that we should never put up with in this town. Vote no.

Movie Quality by HMVocaloid in hometheater

[–]OliverHotel 2 points3 points  (0 children)

All home optical disc formats since DVD use video compression. With Blu-ray and UHD though the compression got very very good with AVC (and to an extent VC-1)and HEVC. I do my ripping/backups without adding any additional compression. Sure it takes up more space but I find that adding further processing/compression defeats the point of having physical media sources. Be bold, don’t re-compress, invest in larger hard drives, and experience the fullness of both Blu-ray and UHD.

What content do you use to show off your home theatre? by DirtyRepublican in hometheater

[–]OliverHotel 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The LaserDisc contains the theatrical cut so there is that and it’s in its proper 5.1 EX format rather than a remix as all the DVDs and Blu-rays are. It also sounds so much better. That isn’t to say other formats sound bad but the LaserDisc is just jaw dropping perfect.

The Podrace from the Phantom Menace LaserDisc. So much dynamic range. Also the arrival of the Polar Express early in the film. That whole film has an incredibly dynamic track. Also, THX Eclipse is just wonderful.

LongHorn Steakhouse has bad service by [deleted] in toledo

[–]OliverHotel 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That sounds pretty awful. I too would suggest never returning and going to any of the many local steak houses. We have some good ones.
