My receiver only has 7 channels or I would totally do 7.1.4 :) One day.

I currently have a 5.1 setup, and I want your opinion. Do you think 7.1 or 5.1.2 with on-ceiling speakers would be better? I'm leaning toward 5.1.2.

I doubt it. All streaming services are around this bitrate or a little higher, like around 30 Mb/s or so. This bitrate is good enough for most people and is likely to remain so. People watch on their 50" bargain TVs with a soundba

I believe Dolby Vision is only on 4k Blu Rays, so you're probably good.

If you buy blu-rays from those five participating studios, they also give you the same Movies Anywhere digital copy.

That's good. Some people seem to have issues with Dolby Vision. See here: https://www.reddit.com/r/PleX/comments/rw6mn3/what_is_the_cu...

I thought about doing this, but I was worried about codec compatibility issues with Dolby Vision and Atmos, and DTS:whatever. Everything I've read says you need to buy an Nvidia Shield to do it right. This is probably even closer to id

Wow, that's really surprising and disappointing. Usually the disc is considered the ideal "canonical" way to watch the movie, but I guess not always. I think blu-ray.com has user reviews that are focused on the quality of the

I have started a modest Blu-Ray/4k Blu-Ray collection. For me, it is by far the best movie experience I've had with any format. It takes maybe 90 vs 20 seconds to get the movie playing, but in return I get noticeably better qualit

There are already design standards for avionics software. DO-178 and DO-254, namely. Some car manufacturers follow something similar voluntarily. Maybe requiring something like this standard and having something like the FAA to enforce it i

Not on purpose, but there are YouTube videos of pilots accidentally doing in flight announcements on guard. Maybe there's some plane error that is sometimes causing the error the other way around.

Maybe something in there is picking up the guard frequency. People make weird noises on that frequency all the time, including animal noises and screaming.

Hello! Mid 30s guys here. I share this trait. This is trite advice, but it works for me. First of all, I am always a little bit lonely. I have trouble letting people getting close, and it takes me longer than other people to show any vulner

I would rather use my long life expectancy to build a passive income through investments and retire for several decades. Something about having a longer life expectancy requiring a longer time in the workforce rubs me the wrong way.

I'm not saying the conclusion is accurate, but there is a correlation between mean reaction time and intelligence in humans. That doesn't mean that you can extrapolate intelligence from reaction time of Victorian era people. The
