Now that you can actually handle 4K you'll come to the dark side soon enough

I still fail to care about 4k.

I still fail to care about 4k.

The way you look I can understand why.

Apparently lots of people conflate 4k with HDR and higher refresh, so I can see why they're so hot and bothered about it.

I almost never watch movies. And even if I do, I'm watching the MOVIE, not in awe of how many pixels are turning on and off. 4k/8k/384k are all diminishing returns. IMHO, we only care cause we're supposed to.

Did you just "oh shit" your own post?
It was a solid chirp, but still

So what's your biggest TV in the house? 1080p gets blurry real quick at bigger TVs

 

[Domon]

I'm actually guessing that you might not watch anything on a TV at all and you're watching it on tiny phone screens, where of course 1080p is fine

Am proud, wouldn't have guessed there was some tech nonsense you wouldn't buy into.

That's a hell of a way for them to sell more landfiller.

Mine's 65", 4k, and I run it at 1080p because I can't see the difference, except that 4k streams all look awful by comparison with bad artifacting when they try all that HDR shit.

 

[Valve1138]

I’m already on to 8k nano-OLED.

A movie file is 346gb but whatever.

Biscoff/biscoff cream sandwich cookies are a thing you can and should purchase.
