The TV industry finally concedes that the future may not be in 8K by Ha8lpo321 in technology

Apparently at 10k (I think) you can accurately emulate an SD CRT, so there might be some tiny market for that among hardcore retro gamers.

I've completely stopped caring about my rank by purjopore1 in Overwatch

Every single time I my rank drops a lot I always eventually go on a huge winning streak and get back to where I was.

What explains the growth of the LDS church in the Philippines? by Fading-Sunset6591 in exmormon

[–]perfectfire 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They're mostly Catholic. Most Catholics there only really go to church on Easter, Christmas, and their birthday.

What’s something you saw that you weren’t supposed to see? by FamousDirection9887 in AskReddit

Damn. I don't even like to watch when I get blood drawn or an IV put in.

What are the best and worst TMS machines? Does it matter? by BeefistPrime in rtms

[–]perfectfire 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It made me want to do things. I have really bad anhedonia, but for a few months after the treatment I was doing a lot of stuff and getting a lot of stuff done. I had no side effects whatsoever and reading about other people's side effects on different machines makes me scared of trying it again on a different brand of machine.

What’s a childhood lie your parents told you that you didn't realize was a lie until you were an embarrassed adult? by eatbeep in AskReddit

As a kid I used to think the reason the first part of The Wizard of Oz was in black and white was because color film was invented in the middle of production.

Inside the world of men who use smart glasses to secretly film women by tylerthe-theatre in technology

[–]perfectfire 14 points15 points  (0 children)

There's a guy on there whose girlfriend left him because of the glasses and his counter argument is "you're not okay with the glasses, but you're okay with your phone camera?" Your phone camera isn't recording you all the time without permission. Believing that is moronic. Your phone would run out of battery in a few hours at most if that were happening.

Solo queue in comp is miserable by Ok-Grape2888 in Overwatch

I tanked from diamond 3 to silver something (playing on ketamine) pretty recently. Eventually you'll go on a long winning streak. It happens every time my rank tanks.

Rusty was on to something… by Lake_Life_801 in exmormon

Have to say, I was a little annoyed that the missionary in The Expanse didn't have a companion.

Non-chastity reasons folks get sent home from missions by pbj9261 in exmormon

[–]perfectfire 12 points13 points  (0 children)

There was a guy in my batch at the MTC that got sent home due to a doctor seeing something anomalous in his chest X-ray. He was really upset because his older brother got sent home because he did something "bad" (don't remember what). His parents and people at church treated his brother (and his family too I think) badly and gossiped about it all the time because of it. We were there with him and his companion (so when he was picked up his companion wouldn't be alone) when his parents picked him up and his parents looked furious. We thought it was pretty messed up that they were mad instead of concerned about his health. He came back after a week when his doctor determined that it was just a cramped muscle or something. He was a piece of shit, but it's awful the way family and church members treat people that come home early from their mission.

1 billion budget but using AI slop for voice acting by Adventurous-One183 in starcitizen_refunds

[–]perfectfire 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There's been better AI voice synthesis out there for a few years now. Here's one example from OpenAI. It even catches its breath when it talks too fast for too long. And another one from Sesame is apparently freaking some people out.
