Somewhere Tony Schiavone got the urge to yell "It's Sting!"

A fraction? The Switch is the third best selling console of all time, behind only the PS2 and the DS

AMD bought ATI a while ago. The ATI brand hasn't existed for about as long but AMD kept branding their GPUs with Radeon

Dearly Beloved and the variations on it are the best. I'm partial to the version for Kingdom Hearts 2 but they're all great

Sorry, best we can do is massive, expensive pseudo-luxury SUVs

Is Taz secretly forklift certified?

Takeshita dressed as Majima lol

Genuinely, the bitrate for streaming is much, much lower than physical media. DVDs average about 6 Mbps, HD Blu-rays average roughly 30 Mbps, and 4K Blu-rays average around 100 Mbps. From everything I've seen Netflix doesn't really go higher than 20 Mbps even at 4K. Color banding and blocking is going to generally be the most visible issue with Netflix and other streaming services

I personally prefer Newsflash because the main dev of Fluent is weirdly adamant about not implementing either customizable shortcuts or the standard vim-style navigation that almost all desktop RSS readers have had since Google Reader included them

NYT wrote about it earlier today

Is it possible that there are ghosting issues with the panel? I had a 120hz monitor at work at one point that had ghosting issues so bad it made it look barely any better than a 60hz panel. Going from 60hz to 120hz+ should definitely be noticeable to most people

I've been loving it on desktop, personally

I used to use Inter Semibold as my main UI font but recently moved over to SF Pro Text Semibold. I've been consistently using the Nerd Fonts version of Fira Code for terminal/IDE

Wasn't it Philip Glass's Pruit Igot?

I hadn't heard about it but yeah, the iOS and Android apps are open source.

I really hope this isn't a sign of things to come with other Automattic companies. I'd hate to see Pocket Casts go away.

I'd be happy if Rian Johnson got another chance with Star Wars. Brick, Brothers Bloom, Looper, and Knives Out were all great and at least personally The Last Jedi felt like it was trying to set up things to pay off in the next movie since he was originally slated to write and direct Episode 8 and 9.

Kbin just pushed out an update that shows where else in the fediverse the linked page was posted. I don't know if there's anything similar on Lemmy.

Just from memory there's one of the most highly regarded golden era episodes, Homer at the Bat which heavily features MLB players from the time and makes jokes assuming knowledge of the league. You Only Move Twice has the joke about the Denver Broncos. The entire characters of Drederick Tatum and Lucius Sweet are based on Mike Tyson and Don King respectively.

The Simpsons has done a ton of sports jokes in the past, that's definitely not unique to recent Simpsons.
