games where you will want 144hz, twitchy online stuff, you will anyways play on low setting for clarity, so in many cases a single 1070 or 1080 will do the trick for 1080p.

also, sli can lead to outright performance loss even in some modern games, not to even talk about stutters, tearing, and frametimes in general

New monitors should have simulated degaussing, with a variety of textures and styles to choose from.

I bet you could sell a good hotkey emulation of degaussing on Steam for like a buck, there's a project for someone.

I saw TNG redone for HD and I quite frankly wasn't impressed. Everything just looked very cheap. (Like you could see how parts of the Set were obviously just hastily painted wood) I honestly don't think it adds anything worthwhile. More isn't automatically better. I like to watch old stuff like that on my old 5:4 1280x1024 Samsung. That's about as good as it needs to get.

the remaster is worth it even if you're watching on some clapped out old CRT because the color is WAY better now that it hasn't been destroyed by dodgy late-80s videotape editing technology

nah not a tv effect. its part of the video



i think its a digital camera thing? idk next time I see it ill note it. it just loses the cinematic effect and immediately makes the scene look cheaply filmed. i was surprised because it was a big budget flick

Well I found some response time settings on my monitor... setting it to Ultra Fast does actually noticeably clear up ghosting in Elite: Dangerous. but what am I sacrificing by using it?

looks like the usual, so highest responsiveness settings may induce overshoot (aka inverse ghosting)

Weeellllll

in the 90s there were some corners cut to make the production budget, especially in the first 2 seasons of TNG. The show was shot on 4 perf 35mm film, but the lenses used were not very high quality, so really going beyond 800 lines of resolution seems to be a stretch. I'd say if he's scaling properly in the display he's using that he's not missing much if anything from watching on a real 1920x1080P display.

Logan had a few open shutter shots, but a lot of movies do these days because B crews are working with smaller light setups and, and crews that aren't doing quality control.

the shutter speed video you linked was narrated by an associate-level person

one of these days they will fully understand the craft and lose half of their hyphenated title and then I might listen
