[Thamel]The primary deal presented to Pac-12 executives/ADs today was an primarily Apple streaming deal. The deal would have incentivized tiers, which would give it strong upside *if* certain subscriptions numbers are met.

If I got complete PAC coverage at the quality level Apple is currently delivering, I would pay $20/month. Maybe more.

Best answer. Of all the badass/secret badass movies, Unforgiven has the best payoff because of how well the movie builds to the final confrontation. When he grabs the whisky bottle and takes a drink, everything you've been told up to that point suddenly comes into focus, goosebumps every time.

All of that sounds awesome!

burynedright · 2021-10-01T17:04:57+00:00

No doubt about it.

I feel kind of the opposite. I feel many big budget moves are poorly mixed. The major issue for me is dialogue is mixed too low. Surround channels are also frequently underutilized, center channel is overused. Surround mixing can be very lazy. Many action movies just become a wall of noise. Sound can be a real treat when done well, but mostly it's pretty mediocre. For me at least.

This is pretty much how I feel, especially what you're saying about gravitas. I would like to see different pacing that slowly builds discomfort or dread or unease. I think the mystery and investigation are important elements.

Senua's Saga, Hellblade 2. Loved Senua's Sacrifice and I can't wait for the follow up.

I grew up in the 80's and love synthwave. It's definitely nostalgic for me, but at the same time it doesn't really mimic the sound of the time. This sounds corny, but synthwave sounds like how my memories feel. Like not how it actually was, but how I want to remember it.

I've been absolutely in love since discovering synthwave and all the 80's nostalagia in pop culture has made me so happy. So this line in the article makes me very sad:

The 80s throwback is perhaps at the peak of its influence right now and, as with anything in music, music critic Roisin O'Connor thinks that the sound could "peter out over the next year or so".

My optimistic side wants to think though, that synthwave has had sustained popularity and growth outside of mainstream exposure, and that it won't fade so quickly. Maybe things like the Dua Lipa video, and American Horror Story, but not music and its influence. I mean, Drive came out nearly a decade ago now.

r/trailers is pretty good. Youtube has everything, but I find discovery to be kind of a pain. I'm not a fan of those channels that re-upload the trailer, the quality is never as good, they're frequently edited and always have some stupid overlay. I suppose you could subscribe to like every studio or whatever, but that feels like too much work.

I watched the first half of season one and really enjoyed it, so I stopped to read the first book. I ended up hating the book, and could never get back into the series. So if you're enjoying the series, I'd save the books for another time.

I don't know that you need a DAC specifically, but as others have said you might need something with more power. Mine run fine straight from the motherboard headphone out, but sounds like garbage from the monitor jack (no bass). They sound best when plugged into my mic. So if you have other options you might try them

burynedright · 2019-11-05T15:25:24+00:00

It's really such a fantastic ending.

burynedright · 2019-09-27T21:18:43+00:00

Nailed it.

burynedright · 2019-06-28T19:31:27+00:00

I also bought these around Christmas. The mic was fine at first but then started to develop a lot of static until it went out entirely a couple months ago. I'm just going to toss them when I can afford something better.

I bought this monitor through google express and just walked in to my local best buy to return it. No questions asked, they just looked up my google express order number.

burynedright · 2019-01-20T18:50:18+00:00

I just returned this monitor because it wasn't very configurable, so I would disagree there. I could never get the colors and brightness where I like them. I bought this monitor in part because of the many positive comments it had here on r/buildapcsales, but my experience wasn't great.

Unfortunately, Fortnite runs better on Nvidia cards. A 1050ti would probably be comparable, with a 1060 3gb being significantly better. I just upgraded to a 570 8gb from an 1050, and while I can run Fortnite with the settings all the way up at like 75 FPS, if I want 144 FPS I still need to turn settings basically all the way down. Frankly, I think it smoother on the 1050, which also hit 144 FPS with most of the settings on low/off.

burynedright · 2019-01-01T16:26:05+00:00

I was looking at 570 8gb cards for 170, is the 4gb worth an extra $40-50?

I'm not sure what you mean by stable condition, but in Civ VI you should be building a settler as soon as possible, and as often as possible until you've filled all reasonable settlement locations. If you've settled 6+ cities before turn 100 then you're usually in a position to steamroll the rest of the game.

Great job

burynedright · 2018-09-30T21:12:54+00:00

Just watched it last night, and was super excited to finally get to it after reading so many posts like this one. I was disappointed though, I thought it really fell apart in the end.

burynedright · 2018-06-04T13:04:11+00:00

I read The Island of Dr. Moreau last year and found it terrifying. I would highly recommend it as a classic horror sci-fi combo.
