So some of the last things I've bought before the layoff are starting to trickle in. One of them was the FINAL piece to the puzzle of getting my 5.1 surround system to work as true 5.1.
That said, I'm still a little dissapointed with sound, but I think it just is what it is. Mostly in how tinny it occasionally sounds. To test the setup, I used ST:TMP's Director Edition and specifically played the Wormhole and V'Ger probe scenes, and they sounded excellent. Good bass, lots of direction in the sound.
But in the quieter scenes, everything felt a little flat and tinny. If I switched over to 2.1, though, suddenly there was a lot more bass. I'm guessing cause in 5.1, the subwoofer plays ONLY stuff going to the subwoofer, where in 2.1 it plays everything below a specific frequency, regardless of what speaker it's supposed to go to.
Not a problem with the movie, really just me being spoiled with really heavy bass I'm used to and MAYBE some cheapie-ish speakers.
That said, the THX logo in full 5.1 is mindblowing.
New Urusei Yatsura opening (maybe?) dropped!
Dear Lungs,
Right now I know you're coughing like crazy. I know you're begging foir Nyquil and inhalers. I really REALLY want to give them to you right now.
But I have a pulmonology test tomorrow. And you know, I REALLY want you at your worst so they can freakin' figure out what's wrong with y'all.
Just bear with me, okay? I'll bring Dayquil along with me and the minute we're done with the appointment we're gonna swig down all the Dayquil we can manage, Just keep coughing for now, 'kay?
my favorite part is how incredibly TMSy it is

My favorite part of this Japanese CN bumper is that George Jetson actually recoils when he sees anime on the TV. LOL!

A terrifying bill was just dropped in the late night hours in Oklahoma that would medically detransition all trans people up to age 26.
I called this would happen months ago - states are moving towards outright elimination.

New bill introduced in Oklahoma would make it a felony to provide gender affirming care to anyone under the age of 26.
WE TOLD YOU SO.
It won't stop until they ban transition entirely. They'll just keep increasing the age. It was never about children.
McCarthy has now lost 11 Speaker votes, and there's no sign of anything changing.
But here's the part that really gets me.
Republicans—who won 2 presidencies with fewer votes, filibustered dozens of popular bills while representing 20M fewer Americans, and appointed 3 SCOTUS justices contrary to the will of the majority of Americans—are upset that 20 ultra-MAGAs are holding 200 MAGAs hostage.
I guess they don't like the FO stage of FA ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
