Just wanted to bring attention to this excellent open boxing and 1st impressions video of Sony's 100" X92 2021 4K HDR TV. Please re-share if you like it and think it's worthy.

Don’t tempt Waboman as he’ll likely spin a tall tale to the boss of the house as to why they gravely need a new TV and as a result the kids will have to eat peanut butter and jelly sandwiches for each meal for a year to fund his venture.

A couple thoughts after a quick, robust morning group ride with me wearing/reminiscing about old glory days –



while at the same time us wondering how the new breed of warriors fared up north this weekend - https://www.seaotterclassic.com/

and before sitting down to watch France challenge Spain in the UEFA Nations League Cup final from Walter’s homeland in northern Italy. Firstly, I think it would be insightful to listen to –

and Walter on the same panel debating the merits/or lack thereof of 8k.

Secondly, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mtAmXRWXTx0#t=8m40s
how ‘bout a TV processor that incorporates human cognitive characteristics like so - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=he5YwEHwNCo#t=469s

addendum: For those like Walter ^ who, at least foremerly advocated its use before then having second thoughts - “always like to add grain to my project” for texture, remember, there is no problem in so doing when the movie can be delivered in high bitrate video streaming Bravia Core -



with this gizmo -



plugged into your Sony A90/80J, or all around more friendly (non-dimming) gaming/sports/movie X95J tv with of course a proper network service.
P.S.
The adapter, not the bike shorts and socks about to go into the washing machine after a Sunday ride.

Outcome of the vote on granting a strike authorization by Local 600 -



So, if a strike does happen and North American-based episodic TV and feature film content production is thusly a bit affected by delays, before folks get all irritated with crews, one current comparative inequity to keep in mind which movie/TV series fans may be unaware of is that actors are protected in that they have a 12 hour turnaround, i.e. if they work from say 6 P.M. to 6 P.M., they can not be compelled to be back at work earlier than 6 A.M. the next day. There is no such provision for the crew of a production. Sometimes crew members are required to work more.

^ Meaning, they shouldn’t be compelled to work like this -


P.S.
b.t.w., before any of you clever fellows try to run the plate, might I remind you to read and understand the terms of the DPPA

Announced last week the Billie Eilish will perform "Sally's" role in the Nightmare Before Christmas performance. And, replacing Paul Rubens will be Weird Al. So it will be fun performance. Should be a great trip.

If your schedule isn’t full, you could also take in My Fair Lady at the Dolby Theatre and/or if around on Thursday or the following Monday try for free tickets across the street with the Jimmy Kimmel Live show - https://1iota.com/show/1/jimmy-kimmel-live

You can shoot 4K HDR10/Dolby Vision Hollywood movies now with an iPhone 13 Pro/Pro Max, in ProRes (forget those big/heavy IMAX cameras).
* Just get the 1TB ROM storage model because those files are large, very.
