Games are different. Interactive media requires responsiveness. Saying that higher framerate is always better in cinema is a pretty bold statement, one that would fail a simple survey among moviegoers. What does "better" even me

Those are the origins, but the result is a style that can look good or better than higher framerates depending on what you're going for. Art is not held back by fidelity - instead fidelity is part of what defines it, as well as other c

It's not conditioning. Frame rate is a tool in the toolbox, and more isn't always better, just like a colorized black and white film isn't better just because it has added information. This is most easily apparent in animatio

Vinyl won't get the most to the artist per dollar spent though. Most of the revenue from vinyl goes to people involved in the production and distribution of the physical record.

Read the article, that's not what he's saying. And it's said by someone who, if you know their history, cares to an extreme degree about what the end product tastes like.

The battery life is still fine. Plugging in once in a while isn't a huge deal. I'd rather save time compiling than not having to plug in once every 8 hours.

It's not about ancient wrongs, the wrongs being talked about were happening as AA was implemented. We're talking about things happening in 1971, not just the 1850's.

Blind devotion to your employer or country is not a virtue, but a naive idealism. Honor is just a general heuristic for doing good, it's not the good itself. Doing good is done on a case by case basis, ideals are just a guide. We have

He did deny historical fact, he led the society for revising Japanese textbooks to downplay the extensive war crimes. Plus, visiting the shrines can be a personal matter, but as a politician he knows exactly the connotations of his visits.
