Voyager and Paramount Plus

I just started watching Voyager on Paramount Plus today, and noticed that the first two episodes, which are shown together, are presented as the appropriate 4:3 aspect ratio, but Episode 3 “Parallax” is presented in a distorted 16:9 or 16:10 format. I see no option to change this in Paramount Plus settings, and my Vizio TV...

Streaming services and aspect ratios are always an issues. That and what “cut” of the video they got.

Oh man, they almost had me depending on camera quality, but how old is that processor?

AnotherPerson,

That took my back. Mpow were my first Bluetooth headphones. Good to know they are still around.

How good would you say the ANC is?

AnotherPerson,
@AnotherPerson@lemmy.world avatar

Do those have ANC?

AnotherPerson,
@AnotherPerson@lemmy.world avatar

Those look interesting. Thanks for the suggestion.

That’s always a good recommendation. I’m pretty hard on my gear so I usually buy new to get the most life out of them. My earbuds were pretty worn by the time I washed the case. But I’ve more than one person say refurbished has worked out great.

I hope it comes to market soon. I’m running low and having a hard time finding a refill.

I know the pharmacy I’m currently trying to get it filled at originally tried to fill the generic but didn’t have it. (Obviously this was yesterday) and the issue was they weren’t sure if my insurance would pay for name brand… I had to explain that it was okay to bill for name brand.

I did the same then found out about dry herb vaping. You should check it out, feel better than concentrates.

And we need research for any detrimental effects as well. We need to know where the benefit ends and the harm starts.

AnotherPerson,
@AnotherPerson@lemmy.world avatar

Hmm… I wonder why consumption went up? I noticed mine go up when I switched but that was probably more of a fascination with the new “toy” than anything else.

There would be a long list of people on that class action lawsuit list.

Mine was built in the 80s. I spent the morning crawling around my crawl space. There may be one down there but I can’t find it or it’s beind the sewer line I can’t get past, which just means I don’t have one. There is a knob in my garage which I have no idea what it goes it. I have turned it till it won’t turn both ways any nothing has happened that I could find.

AnotherPerson,

Mine comes in in our crawl space but I can’t get to where it comes in becasue of a sewer line that runs the width of the crawl and I can’t fit past it.

AnotherPerson,
@AnotherPerson@lemmy.world avatar

Got it, thanks.

AnotherPerson,
@AnotherPerson@lemmy.world avatar

From what I can tell it’s all done from the crawl and branches off from a central lines to feed the various outlets.

AnotherPerson,
@AnotherPerson@lemmy.world avatar

Thanks for the clear and straightforward answer. 😊

For me it’s the camera. If the best camera I have is the one with me then the one with me is going to be the best I can buy (within reason) if they could get Samsung or Pixel quality (or iPhone I guess) that would be awesome.

AnotherPerson,
@AnotherPerson@lemmy.world avatar

Yes but will the hardware still work after that time?

AnotherPerson,
@AnotherPerson@lemmy.world avatar

I’ve had issues with the Nexus 6P, Pixel 2, and Pixel 4a. All have had connectivity issues with either Bluetooth or Wi-Fi after 2 years. I assume the antennas that wrap around the outside are getting damaged in my pocket or something else.

AnotherPerson,
@AnotherPerson@lemmy.world avatar

This is why I recommend Mint with Cinnamon DE. Same reasons. It’s always interesting to see someone come to a different conclusion with the same reasoning. 🙂

I highly doubt the PineTime is stable and reliable enough for the mainstream.

AnotherPerson,
@AnotherPerson@lemmy.world avatar

How much tinkering did it take to get it stable? How much ongoing maintenance is needed?

AnotherPerson,
@AnotherPerson@lemmy.world avatar

Oh no at this point I’m just genuinely curious. Does it do notifications? I wonder if it would work well tutanker from Mac OS.

AnotherPerson,
@AnotherPerson@lemmy.world avatar

You are assuming they know about and care about those issues. The teens in my life don’t care.

AnotherPerson,
@AnotherPerson@lemmy.world avatar

Thank you I’ll check it out

AnotherPerson,
@AnotherPerson@lemmy.world avatar

Thank you I’ll check it out

Thanks again this is exactly what I was looking for.

I remember getting a PineBook Pro when it came out. Seemed like a great machine but the screen failed in less than a week. Thankfully they refunded me but it was disappointing.

AnotherPerson,
@AnotherPerson@lemmy.world avatar

Armbian was the most promising when I had mine, but still wasn’t ready. I just couldn’t get into manjaro, but every time I loaded a new OS the screen would die, come back, flciker and a “shadow” around the perimeter of the screen.

AnotherPerson,
@AnotherPerson@lemmy.world avatar

Yeah it was unfortunate because of their (basically) no returns policy I didn’t want to roll the dice on a second one.

AnotherPerson,
@AnotherPerson@lemmy.world avatar

I’ll have a flip phone again… One day…

Leading to an indoor wall from a garage.

AnotherPerson,
@AnotherPerson@lemmy.world avatar

It’s from a garage to an interior wall. I’m not sure if that would qualify as exterior or not.

AnotherPerson,
@AnotherPerson@lemmy.world avatar

If it’s necessary then how did my last tank make it 20 years without one?

AnotherPerson,
@AnotherPerson@lemmy.world avatar

Yeah but that was like the coolest mythbusters episode ever /s
