  7. special shoutouts to the woman who just called me ugly to her daughter in Spanish because she thought I couldn’t understand her. When I raised my eyebrow she turned to me and said “I was just telling my daughter you look like someone we know”. Okay, ma’am.

  8. Trump courts controversy after he lifts restrictions on owning slaves, a decision which some have called “a cause for concern”, while others have dismissed the controversy. Sen. Marco Rubio took to Twitter earlier today to criticize Democrats in Congress and the media for putting the spotlight on this issue, ignoring the President’s many accomplishments elsewhere.

    • @adiwan The high frame rate video debate is scheduled to be the next big generational tech gap, according to one headline I skimmed once online. "Gemini Man" will remain dumb, regardless.

    • @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.

    • @adiwan I can vouch for the last bit, a perfect example is the marvel cape movies. They look just fine on tv or a cinema screen, but look at scenes in >1080 60fps on a high DPI cellphone screen and the actors look awkward, movement looks cartoony and poorly acted, you can notice the weird physics from cable pulls and all that.

  24. I voted for Hillary Clinton in 2016 and even I just want Hillary Clinton to go the kiwi away. If not for America, then for my sanity every time I open Twitter and somebody’s complaining about the thing she said last night.
