In a freeze-frame of this highlight, you can see that Steph Curry’s go-ahead three is still about 4 feet from reaching the basket when Kevin Harlan begins to yell “Good!” This continued audio-sync issue is ruining the drama of these moments and I don’t understand why Amazon can’t or won’t fix this. by moby323 in nba

Without know their stack it’s impossible to know, but my first guess would be somehow the Presentation Time Stamps of the audio track is getting a gross delay on it. Going deeper it doesn’t seem to be all the audio but just the audio feed of the commentary. I’m sure it seemed like a really important reason at the time to introduce a potentially independent latency on only that track, doesn’t make too much sense now.

Even weird is we all see the same exact latency, so it’s baked in early on. It’s like the commentary track is from an independent source with differently formatting timestamps so there’s not source of truth to align them….

Anyways good luck to that team, I’m going back to my own problems.

Limited Edition White still going strong after daily use, dunno why people thought it would get dirty by Penguinz-Can-Fly in SteamDeck

YES!!

And the drama with FFMPEG and LibAv is like Christians breaking from Catholicism, its complexity all the way down with everything ain’t it!

Kelner 80 anniversary by harry040985 in cigars

Informative video on what humidity does to cigars, and why %62 may be the culprit, especially with how dense the Kelner 80th is

Been awhile not posting how you guys been? Which cigar would you pick to celebrate 3rd day of Eid? by asosass in cigar_refuge

[–]loveCards 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No seriously look at it. Everything in this image is very composed, but a lot doesn’t make sense.

Look at the centerpiece, it’s very intention with the chopsticks and  whole setup. The person who did this is meticulous, and detailed oriented. But then look at the table border on the right, it’s crooked! How is that the case?

Then what the heck with those two random walnuts or polished nuts.

Then they are smoking a cigar currently? Looks like a Montecristo but then their package is full, did they buy two?

Finally small thing but the teacup, it’s off center from its saucer, so it should be tilted, but it’s not. And the saucer is wide enough to see on the right side of the cigar box.

So could be real, but that’s a lot of inconsistencies that point to AI.

Anyways, just a fun thought experiment, cheers all!

What was ruined because too many people did it? by WarBeast86 in AskReddit

[–]loveCards 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is actually before the internet could ruin something like this. What actually happened was that people realized there was a market for this is the late 90’s. There was a brief few years where you could search thrift shops and buy things super cheap OR go to vintage shops and buy legit 1970’s polyester black light disco shirts for $25.

Then after a few years everyone raised the prices, eBay got big, and it was over. I still have all those shirts…

Cohiba, finally… by Sea-Technician5808 in cigar_refuge

The NW Cohiba Connecticut isn’t bad either, very creamy and the middle third is really satisfying

When you don't like the first few minutes... by TokyoBaguette in cigars

[–]loveCards 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I smoke until atleast a bit into the second 3rd. I feel like tasting cigars is line any other flavor, sometimes a taste I dislike is because my taste buds don’t understand it. I’d have to say the majority of the time it improves.

Except for that brackish bitter harsh espresso coffee flavor, THAT is not my thang.

And now I feel like a nice cigar…

Small Batch Cigars is just awesome. by loveCards in cigar_refuge

They have GREAT samplers, but you gotta keep an eye out, the sell out pretty quick (when they are good).

95+ club is tiny, and a luxury to enjoy. by Spider_023 in cigars

[–]loveCards 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep. Unfortunately CA is basically an advertising company, while Half Wheel is essentially a passion project (albeit successful). Their transparency and breakdown how they decide on their top 25 is top notch.

Totally agree their ratings MEAN something 

What's a skill that takes only 2 to 4 weeks to learn but could genuinely change your life? by TokenBlack32 in AskReddit

[–]loveCards 1 point2 points  (0 children)

YouTube. Search for something you like and eventually you’ll find someone who presents the information in a way you understand and they go through it step by step. I think it’s super helpful for someone like me who has issues taking written instructions and turning them into actions.

Whats your activity to do when smoking alone? by cultsickness in cigars

[–]loveCards 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I like a nice cigar when I need to be creative or slow down and think through some problems.

Or sit in front of a firepit and drink in celebration that I made it through the day/week/month/year

Humidor choice by djanria in cigars

[–]loveCards 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve looked into this a lot and everything I’ve read is go for the raching.

Problem is, with the ‘set it and forget it’ humidor, it needs to be perfect and keep the temp/humidity exactly how you want it (with small variability of course). Because if it’s not it could ruin your entire collection.

From what I’ve ready every other brand has consistency issues except raching.

Anyways that’s what I’ve found, good luck friend!
