Fair enough.

Headphones can emulate multi-channel spacial audio because the speakers are right on your ears. Tvs and laptops could do the same thing my headset does, it just wouldn’t do any good because speakers are too far away and in the wrong orientation.

That’s my bad, I should have been a lit more specific. Most basic stereo headphones are straight dual channel and have the same issues as listening through laptop or tv speakers. I’m talking about the ones that actually use multi-channel signal to simulate a 5.1 or 7.1 environment.

Oh yeah, fair.

I just personally hate that all major business logos now seem to just be the name on a single color background. I miss when logos had personality.

The actual reason, for anyone curious, is that movies and shows now are recorded and mixed for 5 or 7 chanel surround audio systems. The dialogue is meant to rout to the speakers closer to the viewers so it’s tuned lower, while big loud shit is meant to come from the bigger, bassier speakers up front farther from viewers so they tune it louder.

If you watch on a laptop, invest in surround sound headphones. I got a decent pair for $40 USD and it has vastly improved both my movie watching and gaming experience.

As insignificant as a mid quality restaurant chain is, it just seems emblematic

Because it’s a perfect representation of their cult behavior. Brainwashed into only caring about surface level snapshots of issues instead of actual material details.

That said, new logo is actually trash compared to the original. Can we please just let this trend of minimalist corpo slop die already!?

Gonna need at least three more zeros on the end of that number, boss. AGI is nowhere near viable with the tech we have now.

Our internet…

Implying they have their own…

Feet are pointed the wrong way. Unless he snapped his spine in half and spun his neck on a 180, that ain’t his.

For really real. People always whine about “well what if the person they catch isn’t actually a predator” but dawg, come the fuck on.

If I invite a grown as person to meet me somewhere under the pretense that I am a child, and they show up to that meeting believing they are there to meet a child? Oh naw, I don’t give half a cold, rusty fuck what excuses they have for why they came over, I’m putting the paws on em. I’mma stomp a mud hole in em and walk it dry with all 6’1", 300 pounds of my fi-fy-fo-fum lookin ass.
