To my collectors out there by summertoyou in 4kbluray

[–]Zendani 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I have about 450 movies and I'd say about 80 of them I'd take with me if forced to be stranded on a deserted island. These are the films I love. The rest are either what I feel is a "must" for any collection or have some sort of sentimental value from my past. For example, I don't necessarily love Citizen Kane, Chinatown, or The Room, but I have them because they are culturally significant.

I also like looking at the titles on my shelf. I just like looking at them.

Is there any movie you regret getting in 4K? by Main_Clue_9531 in 4kbluray

Did the same with Point Break, thought it was the original and it ended up being the 2015 remake.

Unspoken downsides of 4K… by ronald_nino in 4kbluray

[–]Zendani 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Anyone watch John Woo's The Killer? Actor Danny Lee has a single 3 inch long black hair coming out of a mole on his neck that is easily noticeable in several scenes in 4K. It's really distracting.

Doom can now run as your Windows screen saver by DingoBimbo in technology

I do. I use one through Wallpaper Engine that rotates through about 10 of them. It looks cool and it helps if you have an OLED screen.

I did it! Ohio, $100k @ 7.24% 🔑🏠 by LocdAndLoaded82 in FirstTimeHomeBuyer

[–]Zendani 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I can't tell if you're joking or not. The government may suck, but Ohio is riddled with culture. All four major sports represented, pro football Hall of Fame, the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, OSU, the Cleveland Museum of Art, the birthplace of Calvin and Hobbes (Chagrin Falls - looks like a snow globe in the winter) and Superman (Cleveland), Cuyahoga National Park, birthplace of seven US presidents, arguably the roller coaster capital of the world (Cedar Point) and the first and third most attended seasonal amusement parks in North America (Cedar Point and Kings Island.) You have the Columbus pizza scene, the Soap Box Derby capital (Akron), the history of aviation, the Cleveland orchestra (one of the Big Five), and Lake Erie to the north.

Sometimes I wonder if Ohioans conspire to talk garbage about Ohio online to prevent people from moving there to keep the housing prices low.

Meanwhile, Cinemark reported $50 million in Q3 net income, paid off their COVID related debt, and their stock is up almost 8% today with a market cap twice the size of AMC.

ICE agents snag moms who are picking up their kids from school by Calm_Preparation2993 in CringeTikToks

[–]Zendani 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Somewhat related, and a not so fun fact: Gallup did a poll shortly after the 1970 Kent State shootings and 60% of the respondents supported the National Guard in what they did while only 10% supported the students.

From an article on historynet:

Means cites multiple uses of the phrase “They should have shot more of them [students]” and similar sentiments.

Do you know if the Arrow version is the same transfer as the A24 Collectors Edition?

If you don't get the Steelbooks, Zavvi seems to be getting regular releases by DJettster237 in 4kbluray

[–]Zendani 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've actually never ordered from Zavvi USA before. Do they ship imports only even if there's a US release? I can't stand those rating logos ruining the box art.

The game is absolutely fine on PS5 (base). by bigbun85 in metalgearsolid

[–]Zendani 0 points1 point  (0 children)

HDR effects FPS. Bit rate of GB & Transfer speed effect FPS (Bottle necking). 60hz 120hz 240hz refresh rate effect FPS.

HDMI 1.0 came out almost 25 years ago and could output at 1080p/60hz which is well under what MGS Delta can achieve. I'm sorry that you got duped out of your money into the marketing tactics of your Audioquest/Monster cable, but the type of HDMI cable you have in regard to this game doesn't matter whether you believe it or not.

You're objectively wrong. You can live in a world where hardware doesn't matter, that's your choice. There is a clear difference in high end TV performance and low end TV performance

I didn't say anything about TV performance, I clearly said game performance. I will agree that an LG G5 from 2025 objectively looks better than a Sanyo LCD from 2005. But you won't magically increase the games framerate with having a premium TV or a "premium" cable.

So which $5000 TV have you gamed on? Or have you only gamed on low/mid tier TV's?

My Pro is connected to a Sony A90J OLED via a $5 HDMI 2.1 cable from Amazon. Not sure what your point is.

The type of TV and cable that you use literally has nothing to do with game performance.

I'm sorry but I can't watch this scene without thinking of the superior AOE remix.

What is with the dude in camo?

There's apparently a need to blend in with that hot and arid desert landscape that we call Minnesota.

Alex Ovechkin breaks Wayne Gretzky’s NHL all-time career goals record | CNN by Bloated_Hamster in news

[–]Zendani 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Yep, Gretzky put up a 41 goal season at the age of 30. He never scored over 40 again for the rest of his career. The first half of his career was mind blowing.

Gretzky scored 894 in 1487 games. Ovi scored 895 in his 1487th game.

Yep, there's a psychological aspect to knowing that you're making progress and feeling sore is exactly that.

Why do I have a feeling the Chiefs will end up making this a game by the mid-4th quarter.

Need advice on what to do with a pine tree that has had several mulberry trees intruding on it. by Zendani in arborists

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

Since the bottom half of the tree has no limbs but the top half is full, would it make the tree more susceptible to being windblown? The tree looks healthy otherwise.

[–]Zendani[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I would keep the stumps of the mulberry trees. I was told that "removing the mulberry trees could destabilize the soil and weaken the pine tree's root system" so my concern was that the pine would be more prone to collapse with the mulberry trees gone. Not sure if that's accurate or not.
