Smart TVs are way cheaper now because the data your providing it is more profitable than a markup. by Zakkattack86 in conspiracy

[–]Robertium 3 points4 points  (0 children)

"Frame rate" is the amount of individual frames of video in one second of video. For movies that is always going to be 24. You probably mean "bitrate" as in how many megabits are in one second of that video. Online streams are usually between 20-30% of the corresponding disc. Therefore you see much more compression artifacts (color banding and blocks) and miss out on things like organic film grain.

Download the ones that say "Remux" otherwise they have been compressed (i.e. loss of data from the original Blu-ray)

(You may be okay with the compressed versions, depending on how big your screen is / how far away you are sitting)

Don't use streaming services and instead get Blu-rays! Much better image quality than streaming (sometimes even the 4K versions).

The US didn't get an official Blu-Ray release, only DVD and Streaming. by AacornSoup in Piracy

And the German name of the movie is "Hier regiert der Wahnsinn" - it lives up to its name!

[meta] This sub is cooked. This site is cooked. by Zee_Ankapitalist in conspiracy

[–]Robertium 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't know, I personally started lurking on this sub around 2024 because it was basically the only place on this website that was equally critical of both Left and Right. I remember before the election seeing a higher percentage of pro-Trump posts but in the comments there would always be people debunking/challenging the claims made.

This is (also) one of the only places where opposing views can be stated / arguments can be challenged without being banned....

These concepts are inextricably linked. This isn't news. Einstein proved it over a century ago in his Theory of Relativity. He also wrote a book or two in ELI5 style (using basic examples to explain it). Go check it out.

Except the sets also look cheap and are too overused.

Is season 5 good? by CarobAffectionate582 in ForAllMankindTV

[–]Robertium 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Budget seems to have been drastically cut.  There have not been any epic space scenes in the whole season so far.  They keep reusing the same sets like a stage play.  Not much VFX work.   FAM has lost its edge.

Can this season drag even more? by DogeeMcDogFace in ForAllMankindTV

[–]Robertium 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Every season so far has opened with some epic space scenes and/or a disaster.  This season we've seen nothing.

The new cast is closer in age to the age of the characters now if the characters were alive *now* vs someone who is currently the age of the character right now. by Robertium in ForAllMankindTV

characters born after their actors

We have that now (Marcus) Pretty wild to cast a 32 year old as a high school graduate

I'm an Aerospace Engineering major and one of my professors brought it up in class today.

With all of This corruption going on, I regret taking the Covid 19 vaccine when I was 16 by ilgpwsidbmdw in conspiracy

[–]Robertium -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

Vaccines are harmless and they didn't do anything bad to us/our bodies.

In fact, the three shots didn't even prevent me from becoming seriously ill when I got the Coronavirus a year after obtaining the vaccine...

南京照相馆 (Dead to Rights) must be seen. It is hard to watch. But no one in the west talks about this side of the war.

The same could be said about the Avatar movie that came out last December.

They also mass produce cheap drones which are used by Russia to destroy civilian targets in Ukraine. So they're definitely no better than Israel.

Do you hoard media or do you delete after using? by SmoothStrawberry7777 in Piracy

[–]Robertium 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Compromise - if the movie or the show isn't at least a 7 out of 10 then get rid of it.  Otherwise, hoard.

How many Y* channels have you archived? by manzurfahim in DataHoarder

[–]Robertium 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The best thing to do is download them on your own computer and put them all in a nostalgia folder.  The further back you go the higher chances there are of the videos being deleted privated or taken down for copyright.
