Netflix confirms HDR compatibility with Samsung Galaxy Note 8 and LG V30

Found this article with some nice historical and technical details:

Believe the Hype: HDR Is the Real Deal

HDR seems like a bigger deal than 4K for games with moody atmospherics or stealth mechanisms, as well as certain films. I doubt it will die and recede into the background like 3D did.

Amateur writers, but some of them are pretty good. I thought I'd share this humorous take on airline safety with everyone. Visit http://dailysciencefiction.com for more!

On second thought - the story loses formatting when I c/p it. Looks like crap, and I'm not bright enough to fix it. Direct link to story - http://dailysciencefiction.com/hither-and-yon/humor/oliver-buckram/darkening-skies

Enjoy!!

All-righty - I have just nominated myself for a smart ass award with my post here - https://soylentnews.org/~FakeBeldin/journal/2592?&noupdate=1#comment_560273

And, it crosses my mind that a lot of folks here probably use multi-meters from time to time. I wonder how many of you might be using a ten dollar meter, from the bargain bin, at your local auto parts store? Maybe I can convince some of you to upgrade . . .

Like many of you, my first meters were cheap. As an apprentice or a helper, money is tight, so you're not willing to waste money on an expensive meter. But, those cheap meters can cost your life!!

Check the fuse in your multimeter. Is it a glass fuse? Most are, and if that thing is ever hit by a real high energy surge, it will become a plasma grenade, right there, in your hand! Check this PDF http://support.fluke.com/find-sales/Download/Asset/2041429_6001_ENG_A_W.PDF

Personally, my money goes to Fluke. Don't take that as a super-strong endorsement, it's just what I've settled on. There are other companies that make good, safe, quality meters, but my first decent quality meter was a Fluke 77 original. Not a Series II through Series IV, but an original Fluke 77 without a Series designator. Today, I'm very happy with the Fluke 179 - it feels right, it's reliable, and it's like a Timex - takes a licking and keeps on ticking.

If you read that PDF above, you may feel safe using your cheap multimeter, because you never get into Cat III or Cat IV. There's not enough energy to be really hazardous, you say. Hmmmm. Maybe. And, maybe not. Watch some crazy Aussies blowing shit up, then analyzing the results - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M-FZP1U2dkM

I just want to make everyone aware that those ten to fifty dollar meters are a safety hazard. Make your own mind up. Maybe you don't need all the features that I need - all of which adds to the cost. But, whatever you do, you most likely need all the safety that I need. You probably enjoy the use of both of your hands, as well as both of your eyes! Just think about it . . .

Race Bias #1 - "Blissful Ignorance"

I began the "Race Bias" series in 1995 in response to a post on the alt.politics.nationalism.white newsgroup to the effect that there was no discrimination in employment, university admissions, or otherwise, against European-Americans.

I was stunned that the regular posters to the group had no instant supply of material to post in reply.

Most regular posters and "lurkers" on the newsgroup, have some first-hand experience with anti-White race preferences. But very few of them are aware of just how pervasive these anti-White preferences have become. Unfortunately, the primary weakness of our defensive political movement is that a commanding plurality of _Whites_ are utterly unaware of it. They have no clue that the nice sounding phrase "Affirmative Action" means the systematic disfavor of Whites and race based preferences for non- whites.

Indeed, it is hard to imagine how a White can grow up in this society and not be aware of the legal and social impediments imposed on him, but a recent survey from the Washington Post found that 41% of Whites think "affirmative action" included benefits for white men. (Affirmative Action for White Guys? Washington Post, Oct. 22, 1995, p. C5.)

A Harte-Hanks Texas Poll conducted for media outlets by UT's Office of Survey Research and reported in the June 29, 1996 Austin American-Statesman (p A1) is consistent with the Washington Post results:

"A vastly lopsided percentage of Texans, eight of 10, oppose giving any consideration to race when admitting students to college. But when asked about affirmative action in general, respondents were more positive than not."

However, when asked "whether affirmative action for minorities and women "has had a positive effect on Texas," the response indicated that most had no clue what the words "affirmative action" really mean:

"Forty-seven percent of the 1,000 respondents either agreed or strongly agreed that affirmative action for minorities has had a positive effect, while 33 percent disagreed or strongly disagreed."

"When asked about affirmative action for women, 59 percent agreed it has had a positive effect on Texas and 23 percent disagreed. The higher percentage favoring affirmative action for women is not surprising, experts said, because women make up half of the population."

Of course, the issue is not whether "affirmative action has had a positive effect on _Texas_" - a proposition that asks the interviewees to speculate on the impact of race preferences on an inanimate parcel of real estate, but whether affirmative action hurts or harms the interviewee.

But the survey itself highlights one of the means by which large institutions hide the truth from Whites. By selecting the term "affirmative action," conjuring images of a little extra recruiting effort to overcome any "information deficit" that non- whites might have in the marketplace, most Whites are kept in the dark.

Only the minority of Whites who read newspapers will know the truth. Those who get their information from TV will be blissfully ignorant.

The problem is that nearly half of this nation's Whites lack the basic vocabulary and the rudimentary facts needed to defend themselves in the political process.

With this in mind, I produced the "Race Bias" series.

I am a firm believer that the people of the Euro-American nation need facts more than they need ideologies. With that in mind, the series has been reorganized and lengthened from the original 30 to a revised 42 posts.

Copy them and circulate them to others!
