With the introduction of Dolby Surround 7.1 in 2010, Sony were eager to put out a full home theater system. One of their early models, the HT-A7.100, included a revolutionary evolution to the standard stereo jack: the 7.1 surround jack, allowing all 8 channels to be sent over one cable.
@StillIRise1963 It made NO SENCE to create this inbalance. Board members do NOT have to allow such obscenely high salaries to CEO’s, etc… esp when the planet has such ridiculously high numbers of homeless and allowing people to starve to death while others enjoy caviar on the deck of their mega yachts. 🖕🏻
my friend teaches creative writing at a private school. he’s now forced to upload a calendar and a detailed syllabus with itemized evaluation points and not deviate from this at all, because the school considers this a contract with the customer (the student). absolute hell.
@lzg but is there an enviable side to that backwardness? it sounds like the 1990s in Europe - 28800 baud and cyberspace on CD. or is this a really new thing, rather than „finding out wrong“?
The Nazis that are running the House of Representative make no secret of their racism again black women Just a few months back that Nazi Rep. Hal Rogers told Congresswoman Joyce Beatty to KISS-HIS -ASS And not one Republican woman denounced it nor did Trump's black male bag carriers say a word So as long as I'm in my black skin and a woman fighting #bleachblondebadbuildbutchbdy is just another privilege in taking down white trash racist who Envy the success intelligence and more of Black women
@trixter I don't watch Tubi often, mostly because I tend to prefer linear programming where I don't have to pick and choose what to watch. But damn if it's not well done and unobtrusive when I have.
I've gotta drop out of #monsterdon because the cat rescue needs someone to go pick up an incubator for an emergency case but y'all have fun, I'll look forward to catching up later!
Cars work a lot better when there are fewer of them on the road, so maybe forcing everyone to drive, thus clogging up roads, is actually the best way to make them worse. :blobfoxthinkgoogly:
@virtualbri Yeah. It's completely unclear why Naboo (other than because that's where the emperor was from).
Honestly, I'm of the opinion that Lucas should've hired a writer and handed them an outline. He's an excellent idea man! He's not great at story structure and dialogue.
I don’t consume much YouTube but for years I’ve been making an exception for Jenny Nicholson’s deep dives on theme parks, which are a matter FORENSIC special interest for her
She offers us this FOUR HOUR post mortem of the Star Wars Hotel, and I’m going to watch every minute of the detailed analysis
There’s a recurring theme in this video where Disney fucks Jenny over on various upsells and doesn’t fix it until she tweets about them to her enormous base of followers
then they suddenly find a commitment to high-touch customer service
@puppygirlhornypost@amie true, but my understanding is that even non-coax cables transmit their power mostly through the air or insulator outside of the conductor. so it is kinda wireless in a way
“I have seen the extremely restrictive off-boarding agreement that contains nondisclosure and non-disparagement provisions former OpenAI employees are subject to. It forbids them, for the rest of their lives, from criticizing their former employer.”
