The other part of that is that home theater gear has also improved greatly. In the 80’s/90’s, no one was anywhere close to replicating a theater’s video or audio fidelity. Now you can get massive 4k uhd screens which are technically a higher resolution than digital IMAX (2k stacked instead of true 4k), and pair it with 11.2 THX quality Dolby Atmos audio if you want. Good AV at home is far more accessible than it ever has been.

We should all aspire to be as great as Bluey’s dad.

I feel called out!

It is a good video though.

“Art of the Deal”…

As someone who lives in America, I don’t understand how anyone DOES NOT think it’s offensive and threatening and a horrible stance for a president to have. But the ones that don’t think it’s a big deal is how we got where we are and I’m disappointed in my country… again.

I’ve read about this phenomenon in the past. Generally it’s found that due to audio processing cost and the sheer amount of other data easily gathered, there’s no reason for them to snoop with your microphone because other data is so readily available, much easier to process, store and ship.

The one near me is a 5min ride away. I could walk, but that wouldn’t make a difference in going. The parking lot is huge, I see no negative to driving… even if it was 20-30min away.

It’s the content, price, and experience that tends to keep me at my walking distance home theater with 11.2 Dolby Atmos and OLED. Even when it was only 5.1 it was still a better option most of the time. And I can relax, kick back, have a beer, curl up under a blanket, pause to deposit used beer, etc.

No company will stop attempting to achieve mega corp status in a capitalist environment. Gotta make that line go up and to the right!

But do people like “her” content? Like, I’ll be honest, radio mid day to me is very much a “spin some hits and good jams and don’t talk over everything or interrupt” kind of thing. I don’t want a DJ talking over or between tracks other than the occasional mention of what the song was. A number of stations I’ve frequented in the past were literally just a DJ’s playlist with ads interjecting every so often.

Or we could, you know, NOT do that. That’d be the better option.
