    Getting to see all of the older Disney films in HD is pretty tempting by itself tho....

    I heard that Disney+ is going to offer commentary tracks for some of its movies so maybe let's wait and see

    @mrmattimation I remember the Futurama DVDs having really good commentary, too.

    They took down Simpsons World, and like, sure, getting The Simpsons ad-free on Disney+ is cool and all, but they don’t have the dvd commentary tracks on Disney+ and that was 90% of what I used Simpsons World for.

    Ha ha ha of course the library closes in five minutes as soon as I arrive. What's with closing early on weekends? Open late and let me watch cartoons, if you want a half-day. Who's waking up early on Saturday?

    Has anybody written an overly analytical paper about Police Academy where they assert that Cadet Jones is autistic and that’s why he’s like that

    @thismightbeauser The previous message was sarcasm. Hopefully that was obvious.

    @scribus I saw the latest video of "Strange Parts" https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCO8DQrSp5yEP937qNqTooOw and saw how he put a mug with water in the microwave and immediately thought that this was wrong.

    It's savage to boil water for tea in the microwave.

    @scribus High frame rate video is one thing but another thing to interpolate frames of lower frame rate to a higher and smooth out "choppiness", especially with non-contiguous motion like in animation with few feature points in the picture. High frame rate video will be the norm some day. Right now the amount of data is mostly not feasible or the technology is not good enough to simulate. Current films are exported in 2k because all of the rendering time and visual effects. Also visual flaws get more obvious with a higher temporal resolutions. I heard that "acting" is more apparent at higher frame rates, meaning that the acted motions and emotions are perceived as not genuine.

    @scribus it's a cancer called motion smoothing that is enabled by default on almost all newer TVs. Animated content, especially 2D, looks like garbage.

    I hate being tired reading a buttload of poorly written code with almost nonexistent documentation. Being tired and reading the code.

    I'm proofreading a master thesis for a friend (non-native English speaker) and there are so many little idiosyncratic mistakes. Several times "treats" is written instead of "threats" or "enchanted" instead of "enhanced".

    @scribus I'll experiment with that.

    @firestormdangerdash Hmmm....I'm fine with my automatic device. I don't trust high pressure and hot water enough. I already burn myself putting things out of the oven. Steam burns are nastier.

    @adiwan buy a pressure cooker and you can cook rice and more in minutes.

    Bought a rice cooker. Finally well-cooked rice. Just 20 bucks to solve my rice woes. I hate cooking rice in a regular pot because it is hard to get it right there.
