The media (Blu-ray, dvd, whatever…) didn’t matter so much. Adding depth fields to existing media works, but it isn’t exactly perfect. The tech should be much better now, but it took a fuck ton of manual labor to convert films to be compatible with 3D. Back when 3D TVs were being pushed, studios had to film movies in 3D as well, which took more time and more equipment.

Here is an old pic I took during the conversion of Titanic into 3D since it wasn’t filmed in 3D from the start. Each frame needed to have depth fields mapped, by hand, in a room filled with jr level staff. This work was split across multiple studios.

I personally watch he hell out of PBS shows and have since I was a kid. (Space Time on YouTube is probably at the top of my list now.) My first thought about PBS was, “PBS has a web site?”.

Well, that was poetic.

The bit rate sucks ass, but there does appear to be a connection.

What about CornHub?

It’s just like the beer that is just labeled “Beer”. If it still gets the job done, the packaging doesn’t mean shit.

It’s so much more complicated than that, it seems. Wool was a major business, even back then: https://www.cambridge.org/core/journals/urban-history/article/organizing-specialized-production-gender-in-the-medieval-flemish-wool-cloth-industry-c-12501384/A173396BD9F8E10E74634263506620BE

While I don’t think that article proves or disproves a woman being financially independent through spinning, it does hint that wool was extremely expensive and a huge business.

Lulz. The picture is AI slop with a dash of editing.

I’ll never drink again, but there are some days still that I wish my mind could be as numb as it was while I was a raging alcoholic. That thought is usually replaced with remembering how shitty I always felt and how I didn’t give a fuck about anything. Life was a blur.

A mostly clear mind and recovering body is a very good thing. Daily stress is easily managed with regular exercise and chronic anxiety and depression is only a tiny fraction of what it once was. It’s a good life now.

I believe the lifestyle changes not only lengthened my life, but it also stretched out my perceived time as well.

Are you forgetting about jorts?

For some, it’s exactly that.

I don’t give a shit about this post or any argument happening, but I am curious about why you think defamation of public figures specifically, has to have consequences?

I am not a fan of defamation against anyone, but I give the least amount of fucks for any politician. (Maybe one or maybe half of a fuck is given in their case.)

I agree with the comments on this forum (https://www.thehighroad.org/index.php?threads/mushrooming-22-lr-case-heritage-rough-rider.891807/) that the cylinder could have a machining defect. (Basically a headspace issue, also but kinda not. The cartridges are sitting too deep in the cylinder itself.)

If there is room for the brass to get pushed back far enough for it to mushroom out, something is seriously wrong. The issue could manifest from a machining error as small as 5-10 thou, I am speculating.

My first thought was excessive chamber pressure, but the bulging would be much worse around and behind the rim itself if that were the case.

The bullet and the brass get pushed in opposite directions and if the brass can move, it will move before it deforms. If it deforms, it’ll deform at the weakest spot first, like we see in your pic. (Excessive chamber pressure tends to expand the brass and lock it in place. With center-fire, it’ll blow the primers out or have a hole punched in them from the firing pin first. With rim fire, the pressure pushes back on the rim.)

Also, check for excessive slop with the cylinder. If it can move forwards and backwards too much, that could also telling of issues with other parts of the gun. (Like I mentioned before, it doesn’t take much for a gun to be out of spec enough to cause issues with brass.)

The personality of the actor always outweighs the role they play in movies for me. I love the original Mission Impossible as a kid, but that was destroyed when the story was appropriated by scientology.

No matter how “good” a character is in the movies, it’s ruined by knowing the person playing that character is a complete douche.

The problem for me is not what it seems though. I love good movies and part of that experience is complete and total immersion in the quality of the filming, acting, visual effects, sound and storyline. It’s almost a hypnotic state and it doesn’t take much for me to get distracted. A complete jackass of an actor is a distraction.

You mean WALL-E wasn’t real?

Of course they read. Do you think those ticked tock subtitles are going to read themselves when they “do their own research”?

It’s a camera and stickers like this one of many odd DEFCON traditions. (Security professionals in large numbers is an interesting sight to behold.)

Edit: Unrelated bit of history from the time: This also was the DEFCON where Marcus Hutchins was arrested. The fool come rolling in driving a Lambo for some reason so we kinda figured something was up.

(One of my favs from DEFCON a few years back.)

Shit captions are what ticking tocks is all about, right?
