You should use an app like Topaz AI to upscale all your old dvds and watch shows in HD. I’ve recovered so many old series, like ALF, that will never be released in HD, now very watchable at 4x using the Iris2 upscaler.m settings and some parameter adjustments.

*I’m in no way affiliated with Topaz, only a user of the app from early days in 2020/2021.

New hobby for me!

Technicians entering data too fast caused error 54. Come on… their software was running bad code to check form fields. This is like letting a web form cut off your arm.

Scary.

Saving this for later.

I’ve been saying for the past two years that Apple should stop doing business in the EU, but every time that I bring that up someone points out the manufacturer of the chip making machine is based in the EU therefore no one can pull out.

Gross.

So say we all.

Truth

I prefer the obvious product placement in old movies, tv shows. How funny it is to see product placement all over the place on the kitchen shelves of Seinfeld, the sugar cookie of Honey I Shrunk the Kids.

The list could go on.

I was going to say the same thing.

2012 prius-c, physical air-conditioning temp knob, physical buttons for everything. Added CarPlay receiver, and it’s the perfect vehicle. No electronic “syncing” to be done. Just works.

So weird because as a kid, I would rent these video games day 1 from the local library… free of charge.

What is the issue now that they are retro. Shame.

Thankful to have all mine… back… up… and running.

yeah… I have a sick feeling in my stomach about it right now, have no desire to play anything Nintendo at the moment. Uhg.

Zim?

anything worth value, is 3 > 4 years old, and all those users are “deleted”.

if google and duck duck go stop indexing old.redd, I’ll probably never see it again.

I said this above, and more needs to be said. Insurance companies have raised the rates of basic, liability only, for a salvage title car, by more than 70% increase in the last 3 years. $440/6mo > $770/6mo.

This is an attack on all motorists in a way I’ve never seen, and a further attack on new car owners who are unwittingly being sold these cars by car dealerships.

Financially attacking everyone for two car models that have been designed to be targets of “model”, and to allow children to make a mess of their futures. What leverage can we possibly have against this exploitation?

https://archive.is always has a backup of the current page. I stopped using CNN a few weeks ago.

Was going to say, it seems as though people in Japan, just use tech differently.

I miss Toys R Us

me over hear with my gigabit-ethernet plugs in every wall as if they were as important as electricity… upgrade those suckers to 10-gig-ethernet, and wifi-has nothing over other than mobility… mobility until you leave the room… sounds about like being on a wire.

wireless needs a better understanding, and for most that have no understanding they just see faster as better, when no wireless is better than a wired connect, that is why the cellar towers, fiber connection, and even coax-connections all are needed to “power the wireless”.

i’m shocked at how many new or remodeled homes have no “ethernet port” but yet they will have power plugs-n-mass every where in the house, electricity for everything, and then they plugin 5Ghz repeaters into all the wall sockets so that they get decent room to room speeds.
