I hope they licensed this footage appropriately and paid the voice actors scale, but I’d bet good money they didn’t.

Then I think you should enjoy the chips from la cocina de Josephina without regret.

Calidad is excellent and pretty available in the Southeast. We have local producers Ole and La Chiquita that I can find in a few stores and farmers markets. Depending on where you are, someone has got to be supplying the Mexican restaurants.

Sorry. I’m a fellow corn chip enthusiast and just wanted you to have all the facts.

I definitely felt the trauma of that time coming back and felt like crying at the end just due to the release of it all.

Tri Repetae.

I finally watched Contagion after hearing about it since Covid. It’s eerie how many things they got right about a global pandemic: the blogger with his BS treatment, vilifying the head of the CDC… The list goes on.

I also watched the Deathstalker remake. It was okay, but that was to be expected.

Look on the back of the bag at who makes them.

Rage bait, maybe. But I chuckled, and that is good enough for me.

I like this.

Lost. The first episode is a master-class in both “show and don’t tell” and setting up “mystery boxes.” It was downhill from there.

I did not know this but I believe you completely, dear stranger.

You don’t need AI to create soulless depictions of humanity, James Cameron already does that. I think he is just protecting his bread and butter from automation.

Snark aside, I grew up loving his movies. As a film student, I loved taking them apart in critique for his mastery of technical filmmaking. As a professor, I used the DVD extras from his films to show just how forward-thinking his knowledge was of VFX. But this Avatar garbage is just the result of a kid who finally leveled up enough to produce the comic book he wrote when he was 8. It’s awful.

They can rehash the Death Star plot four times, but they can’t bring back the Darksaber. I feel taken advantage of.

If they listened to the fans, everything would be Andor-level writing, Mandalorian-level characters with Clone Wars-level story and world-building.

Just do that.

Tears of the Kingdom and Minecraft would be important to save for their infinite playability due to their physics and craft engines. Final Fantasy 6 for story. Stellaris so people could have a competitive, chess-like monster to wrap their mind around. And Bonk for TurboGrafx16 so everyone could know that game design just doesn’t happen overnight.

8 finished episodes sitting in the can was really odd for the time. I would expect that production would be about 4 finished episodes ahead for a weekly show, and that is generous. But 8? I wonder if they finished the episodes after cancelation back then or if they did it recently.

There are 2 images of ‘the evolution of man’ on this page. The 2nd one seems close to what you’re asking for.

I canceled my subscription after the most recent price hike. Disney pulled off of YouTube TV a few weeks ago, though, so no ESPN. If you want to watch college football, you have to subscribe to their service, which I imagine would lead to a surge in subscribers.

Thank you, that was an interesting breakdown. I really appreciate his methodology. I’m going to deep dive into anything he has posted. Though he doesn’t come to the same conclusion I do, the takeaway is:

1. Yes, there is noticeable sound loss when converting a 24 bit sample to 16 bit.

2. You can really screw with a 24 bit sample and still have a listenable file, presumably because of the bit depth.

3. Recording and mastering in 24 bit benefits classical music reproduction, and I would argue, any acoustic music reproduction. So, anything with a vocal, drum kit, acoustic guitar, etc.

Since the video is about dither specifically, he does conclude that mastering to 16 bit gives the technician a sturdier product when played back on the myriad of modern equipment we have. It’s arguable, sure, but since this an audiophile sub…

Really though, thanks for posting the video. Deep dive in 3, 2…
