I tell you guys what, if “moron” is offensive, I apologize and will do my best to no longer use it. I’m assuming “idiot” is offensive as well, so I will try not to use that either.
Thank you for finally acknowledging that.
You’re welcome. Now can you answer my question?
Umm… what question?

…I’d rather believe they simply detached and reattached the head of their astromechs in flight.
Well, that’s how the Lego sets were.
Can I ask what Jew shit specifically is? Is it any different than regular shit?
Frink is a (non practicing) Jew.
I knew that.
Sorry, your inclination regarding what a “Jew shit” is made it sound like you didn’t get it.
My bad 😛.
What does yhwx mean? Is that some kind of Hebrew shit?
No, but I take a Jew shit at least once a day. Sometimes twice!
What’s your record number?
I don’t give that out to just anyone.

If someone called me Dak Ralter I woudn’t care. That could cause some confusion, though.
I’d be more inclined to care if someone spelled my name with a “c” (Deck), because, well, that’s just wrong.
I’m not sure why capitalizing the wrong letters should matter so much, though, given that your name isn’t any sort of word.
Yhwx, start crunching the numbers! I want a finished rating on my desk by 5:00!
Here’s a proposal for a rating system:

Why would anyone admit to owning something like this, even if we are anonymous???
It’s like giving a top-class pianist a toy piano.
I’d say it’s more like giving a top class pianist one of these:
That might be cool to see though.
So are lightsabers. 😉

^Thanks for the info!
I’m about a week into watching the TNG remasters on Netflix and wow:they are amazing. The picture quality is incredible and the recreated special effects are very faithful to the original effects for the most part, just with better compositing and such. As much as I loved the original series remasters, these just work better because the FX were better to begin with so the superior compositing doesn’t stand out as much her compared to the originals. Although, and I know I should be ashamed, but I prefer the new fx in TOS, they’re just more noticeable. (The bad part is the new resolution that was clearly never intended you can now see Kirks makeup sometimes)
I just can’t wait til I get to season 2 and the episodes start actually being good.
Well, regarding the comparison to the remastered TOS, that wasn’t trying to accomplish the same thing as the TNG remasters. The only reason special effects were redone in TNG is because the digital effects that were used back in the '80s are unavailable and were only created at standard resolution (meaning even if the original files were still available, they would be of little use). They didn’t replace old practical effects with CGI; they took the original film elements and then remade the digital effects in HD and reinserted them. The Enterprise is still a model, etc. The only thing that was done with the practical effects was recompositing/whatever digital manipulation wasn’t on the film.
In contrast, TOS was essentially a Star Wars Special Edition deal (both versions are available, obviously); they took practical special effects and replaced them with CGI. Then, in addition to making special effects “upgrades”, they added in semi obnoxious effects changes that don’t make any sense (i.e., the torture device in Mirror Mirror shooting out visible electricity). Now, it’s not to the same level as the SW SE’s (especially because there are no story changes/added scenes), but it is what it is.
I’d also like to note that TOS was remastered in 2005. TNG was done in what, 2014?
Short version:
TNG looks better because they didn’t replace 1966-1969 era practical effects with 2005 digital effects that were often revisionist changes; they replaced 1987-1993 era digital effects with higher resolution recreations of those digital effects.
EDIT: I do wish they frame-matched the recreated effects more, though.
Lets just start spelling out all the ideas he needs to continue spamming this site.
I don’t care.
Well, maybe you should care. It’s not like you haven’t noticed how everyone wishes you would stop making useless comments. It is rather annoying to see posts like that all the time.
And regarding that specific post: what was even the purpose? Forum and board mean the same thing in this context!
He’s right, though.
It also has more detail in the sound. You may not be able to capture it on paper but your ears can.
He’ll just label that detail you speak of as “analog inaccuracy”.
For the record, I don’t do my taxes to that specific illustration of Catwoman because of the bewbs. I just did a google image search to find an illustration of the outfit I was thinking of and posted the first thing I saw that wasn’t terrible image quality.
And no, it’s not Misogynistic.
I still prefer digital conversions of the vinyl records if I’m going to use a CD (though I have no problem with official CDs as long as they are mastered well).
A lot of it can depend on your equipment. If you have a bad turntable then it probably won’t sound as good as a CD in a Bose CD player, but generally speaking analogue sounds much better on a good setup.
Well said.
It’s like someone put a hand grenade in a clip-art library.
On the albums sleeve you can turn an inner, circular paper to change the imagery on the front. It’s pretty neat.
Are you one of those vinyl people?
Are you anti-vinyl? Vinyl is great; deal with it.
I don’t really like the culture of vinyl people. Especially the people who say it sounds better than CD.
The “culture” of vinyl people? And in what way does it not sound better than CD?
I’m not going to vouch for the inherent quality of either medium, but an album that was originally released on vinyl almost always sounds better on vinyl, because CD re-releases are commonly remixed or remastered, and this usually ends up changing the songs for the negative.
(example: the remixed version of Leftoverture by Kansas contains too much reverb)
