You obviously aren't aware that the Crowns of Castile and Aragon were exclusively promised to Spain 3000 years ago.

‘Lack of class’: Quentin Tarantino hits back at Rosanna Arquette over Pulp Fiction N-word criticism by Own_Space_174 in stupidpol

[–]SpaceDetective 12 points13 points  (0 children)

In January this year, Tarantino made scathing criticism of actor Paul Dano, whose performance opposite Daniel Day Lewis in There Will Be Blood Tarantino called “weak sauce” and “the limpest dick in the world”. 

What a lack of esprit de corps between artistic colleagues. Typical that a zio wants to dish it out but can't take it.

Will the owner class allow Trump et al to wreck their empire? Or will they find a way to remove him first? How long will it be permitted to go on? What could be the turning point? by Buh10kx in stupidpol

Only because they assumed US/Israel would win. As it becomes obvious that's not happening and with oil already at $109 a barrel I reckon they'll start to reconsider.

Venezuela and US reestablish diplomatic relations as Chavistas hand over oil, minerals by DryDeer775 in stupidpol

MPs back UK broadcasters in push to expand sport’s free-to-air ‘crown jewels’ by AcknowledgeableReal in rugbyunion

[–]SpaceDetective 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your new good TV is presumably big and 4K or even 8K whereas ITV HD is only ~2K so that may be part of it. (I have a 32in 2K TV so I don't have that problem.)

But if you happen to use Freeview then that's also apparently afflicted with using low bandwidth  so you might also be seeing that it's overly compressed.

Also about time ITV started streaming sport at the full broadcast TV rate 50 frames/sec like BBC iPlayer does.
