Aren't physical 4k Blu-rays still DRMd? When every part of the chain is digital your physical disc is still only as good as the will of Sony or whoever really owns it.
The toilets in some Indian trains is a trip within themselves too. At least, in the one I took to northern India, so perhaps more rural.
Anyway, it was a literal hole in the floor of the train with bare tracks whizzing by your ass. Gotta say, that was an adventure I hadn't thought about in a long time.
Yes, you are defecating on the train tracks. Along those same tracks, some people were living their lives in little huts made from trash. Speaks for itself.
This was around 2008, I hope something improved, it broke my heart.
Two cents on the headphone jack issue folks bring up all the time. The convenience of 3.5 mm is great and valid. Totally agree.
However, I use and own a lot of wired higher end headphones and a dongle DAC is just better audio quality than the 3.5mm jack. Let me explain.
3.5mm jacks means the phone's on board DAC is doing the work and outputting an analog stereo signal. You are stuck with whatever, typically sub-par, DAC is built into your phone. Yes, some phones have better DACs than others, but it is a challenge to sort out and is often not a priority for most manufacturers.
With type C dongle you can escape your phone's limitations and use dongles with audio features like fully balanced audio because the signal stays digital from your phone to the dongle. Personally, I'm a fan of 4.4 mm balanced connection, as most of my headphones will run balanced. This is something I could never do with 3.5mm alone.
DDHifi, XDUOO, ifi, etc makes some great 'audiophile' - dumb title but you know what I mean - DACs.
I often don't hear this side of the issue discussed.
I think the dates are more relevant than the software. COVID pandemic was probably more impactful here than Linux.
Streaming has ultimately taught me how little I 'need' to watch since it trains you to really only seek out a couple things per service. I've also become very advertisment sensitive being blessed with tools to avoid that and companies honeymooning people for a while with fewer ads compared to what cable did.
Obviously, the dipshits are springing their 'trap' but I'm not bullish on the strategy of forcing consumers to suddenly tolerate a return of ads everywhere and always on entertainment. I just see folks running away again/further disconnecting from traditional media.
I can only imagine the delicious conversations about what objectionable art other people are enjoying that 'their' tax dollars paid for. Sure, let's do it.
And when the GOP holds enough power again we could finally have real US branded State TV! The Trump News Network will live, lol
No. Have you?
Did Tupac's estate agree? Or receive compensation?
Heck yeah, fella. Feels great
I don't know much, but Stremio does a fairly good job listing streaming services for anything searched
Yeah, I stuck around for the horny bit to be unpacked but it never came.
