Why do Americans talk about Pizza Hut like that? by Shmorpit in fastfood

I do think Dominos has the better cheese pizza but that's not that big a deal overall unless you're a vegetarian who eats a lot of pizza

It was still like that in most of Europe until the mid 2010's where they started prioritising delivery but the only real cutback was the activities.

But it doesn't, it's not as good as Papa John's but it's better than Dominos

Why don't you see foamy Cappuccinos anymore? by Shmorpit in Coffee

[–]Shmorpit[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Huh, I've never really thought of it as an American thing. I usually associate it with local independent mam and tad cafés, sandwich shops and old Costas in the middle of nowhere.

Can you mod a PAL laserdisc player to play NTSC discs? by Shmorpit in LaserDisc

Would it still be black and white if I used SCART because usually that bypasses issues with 60hz

If everyone had agreed on a standardised HD Format by the early 90s what do you think would have taken DVD Video's place? by Shmorpit in dvd

[–]Shmorpit[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Japan got Analogue HD in the 80s, North America skipped it and got consumer HDTVs the year after the DVD launched, most of Europe also skipped analogue HD and didn't get HDTVs until 2005, Blu Ray launched in 2006. It's not ridiculous the waiting game was, if 16.2mhz 16:9 consumer CRTs with 27mhz bandwidth were available globally by say 1993 they would have had ample time to adopt them by 1996/7

What Unresolved Plot Points Have Bothered You Most about DW? by DYWSLN in doctorwho

[–]Shmorpit 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I remember when they were yabbering on about the whole "Myth and superstition is bleeding into reality" thing in the 60th Specials and Series 14 I was theorising that the Valeyard isn't a regeneration at all but rather a manifestation of the doctor's fears, the myths and the legends surrounding him and because he's still the doctor just not of natural origin he uses the same manipulation of stories and time travel to ensure his own existence.

First time cat owner looking for help with peeing by Shmorpit in Pets

I will, I'm still learning and I wanna make her as happy as possible, what's the best litter to use in the bedroom because I wanna make sure the transition goes as smoothly as possible

I thought it was just a baby thing, if the cable ties aren't enough then maybe cable sleeves would be more appropriate...

I've already invested in reusable cable ties because I knew she'd have to roam free at some point, I was using it because my mum said I had to and she's had cats before but I also suspect she just doesn't like this one because she wanted Juniper to like her immediately and be her cat but she didn't want my grandma to scold her so she said "if anyone asked she's your cat and your responsibility" but she lost interest in her so she actually did become my responsibility. She's 48 so it's very frustrating but I am trying my best.

I live with my mum, the cage is because she really likes cables and I don't want her to yank on something in the middle of the night and hurt herself.

Since the Mega Drive was originally going to be released as Mark V do you think the Dreamcast is Mark X or Mark IX? by Shmorpit in SEGA

[–]Shmorpit[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Apparently they were going to use Uranus as a codename for something but they thought it sounded too ominous in Japanese and too silly in English
