I just went through this learning curve with my new Sony Bravia 8 II.
I also auditioned the LG G5.
I calibrated both of them. It is not that much effort after some research on avsforum.com. I think this task would be fairly trivial for the hackernews crowd.
Perhaps they don’t have either.
This is great, love that you’re giving your old MP3s a new life.
For the album artwork, be sure to check if there’s already a cassette j card or … minidisc album art that’s closer to the right dimensions.
Yes, it’s an even larger format than traditional 70mm. The cells are physically larger. Anecdote: Nolan worked with Kodak to invent black & white IMAX film for Oppenheimer.
Um actually…
Chris Nolan doesn’t shoot digital. His more recent pictures (Interstellar included) are shot on a mixture of 35mm, 70mm and IMAX 70mm (!)
*American Psycho. Dude in Psycho didn’t use a business card.
I learned this over the holidays. My 25 y/o (millennial?) fluent English speaking sister-in-law started a movie on Netflix on the TV with English subtitles on. It wasn’t an accident.
Right, sure, that’s all true. Now consider that many people can’t read the document.
I guess your analogy still checks out. Neither Old nor New Testament are written in English. And thus English-speakers rely on translations.
The MTA is run by New York State, and therefore at the whim of Albany cronyism [1]. This is why it’s so dysfunctional. I wouldn’t necessarily blame the transit unions.
Edit: also, there’s a history of multiple private subway companies in NYC, it didn’t work out.

My favorite part of this post is this gem of a comment:

Can anyone recommend a Goodreads alternative?
More Perfect, a podcast by one of the hosts of Radiolab, has an episode on this in song form: https://project.wnyc.org/themostperfectalbum/#amendment-27
Side note: This podcast is excellent. The first two seasons are not songs, but investigative (and entertaining!) pieces on important Supreme Court rulings.
Figuring out how to get people to drive less by providing safer, more sustainable alternatives to the car.
100% this. I could go on forever about how unsustainable private cars are, especially in urban areas, but instead I'll drop some positive news:
The 14th St busway in NYC is real: https://nyc.streetsblog.org/2019/10/03/live-from-the-busway-...
It's a start!
Is there any data related Parks injuries/deaths that includes nationality? If not, this thread is all anecdote.
