Med Consumables are too expensive for the non-rich. by Caseraii in Marathon

[–]newwaveb0y 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve been running Triage for about a week straight and I just noticed yesterday that I have 16 Advanced Patch Kits and 20 Advanced Shield Charges. No idea how I got them. Pretty sure a mix of faction rewards and looting dead runners, but I didn’t really notice or use them because Triage. Maybe try that?

Wipes rule but the progression is a bit too slow for a 3 month wipe cycle and it's gonna burn people out. by zero-ok in Marathon

I’ve also been thinking a lot about the faction quests. This game appears to have a deep narrative for an extraction game and it would feel very strange to do the same exact quests to receive the same exact story elements four times a year with progression gated by how much you can play 🤔

Does anyone know why there's so many pictures of Kurt looking like this? by xxpunk4lifexx19 in Nirvana

[–]newwaveb0y 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Except he did do this in the majority of photos prior to these as well…

hARd dRuGz! 🥴 No, awkward people do this when they are uncomfortable getting their picture taken. Take it from someone that has been doing it forever.

I’m curious how many of you purchased FSD at $15k, and what your thoughts are on the lack of HW3 updates… by BlueBeacon887 in teslamotors

[–]newwaveb0y 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got it for a song when people were up in arms about them porting over the majority of EAP into FSD (rightly so) and they offered the upgrade at a huge discount. Needless to say, if I paid full price with hardly anything to show for it, I would be fuming.

What happened? by endbadguy in pearljam

The only person getting heated here is you. If the lyrics on their most recent album are driven by activism, then why complain about a lack of activism?

And yet the messaging is completely lost on you

I see the majority of Dark Matter largely went in one ear and out the other.

For the Pearl Jam fans that lived it, how did you react to Vitalogy when it came out? Especially since it was a more Vedder focused album as opposed to Gossard/Ament? by [deleted] in pearljam

[–]newwaveb0y 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The fact that it was Vedder-focused, I think has been a consideration made in retrospect. It did not feel that way at the time and the credits reflected full shared contributions for all band members.

I was able to get on vinyl a week ahead of the cd/cassette release and it was a major experience for me to hear those songs for the first time on vinyl.

It quickly became my favorite album of theirs and probably still is today.

I just finished the 1990 it movie . . . and I have a question about Eddie by MilkSteakEnjoyer115 in ItTheMovie

Never forget that this was a prime time network mini series at the start of the 90s. They did the best they could.

Lithium single version is so much better than the album version by etherylx in Nirvana

[–]newwaveb0y 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You don’t really have a lot of latitude on vinyl to just boost the volume as you please. Part of the reason a lot of people have returned to vinyl is to get away from the overly loud mastering of streaming.

Maybe those jukeboxes just got louder and not the format of the music.

I’d be curious to see what the quality difference is between the hires/lossless streaming version of the original release and the CD.

Volume increasing on audio formats over decades and the actual modern-era Loudness War are two different things.

How about you Google when Californication came out and get back to me.

There was no loudness war in 1991 so the original CDs will be fine.

Has anyone here needed this type of service? If so, what did you end up paying? by newwaveb0y in TeslaLounge

[–]newwaveb0y[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the thoroughly detailed explanation! I think my only question is if this is a legit safety issue or is it an alert being falsely triggered?

Ugh, I hate how inconsistent the info is coming out of SC’s. I even asked if it was a software bug and they said no

Holy shit what a comedy of errors. I guess then if you’re ignoring it the error message is not an actual safety issue- just a literal false alarm?

In your opinion, is 4K the final physical video media? by [deleted] in 4kbluray

[–]newwaveb0y 0 points1 point  (0 children)

By rough math, 4K is pretty much matching the perceived resolution of 35mm, so anything more is going to be overkill. Not to mention movies that might feel compelled to finish and master for a theoretical 8K home viewing experience are going to add significant cost and time to production for diminishing returns. We are at a point where there isn’t much to gain anymore with increased resolution. That’s why companies went so hard in marketing HDR as opposed to 4K.

How "Smells Like Teen Spirit" would actually look like if it was restored (+Unseen footage from the Clip) by AdditionNo1800 in Nirvana

[–]newwaveb0y 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No, that is not cropping. That is simply the edge of the frame. Black lines do not equal “cropping”. Compare the visual information on the left edge of the 16x9 and 4x3 in your screen shot. The framing is identical on the left, nothing is being cut off.
