Moulin Rouge. Captures a lot of the cinematography you see in Snatch, and it’s a musical. Great story, great writing, and great performances curtain to curtain.

I expect it is natural that there is a tipping point, where there is enough content that it becomes engaging for others. It’s like going to a house party. The first few people to arrive at the party awkwardly stand around and might leave early. Once there is the right number of people, the group dynamic shifts and the entire energy of the party is elevated. The Exodus brought a lot of curious visitors, but everyone was standing around. Now there’s engaging content and comments are growing. Some of those who stopped by in June will likely come back at some point if they left early – I did the same thing in the early days of Reddit. I think there’s been a large enough influx to kick things off and I expect things to continue to grow, but the active user count was probably inflated significantly over the past couple of months and will be resetting to more reasonable numbers.

The video cable does a similar trick with how it supports color. This is why S-Video was superior to composite video until component came along. S-Video split the intensity and color into two signals and then component split the color further into a blue difference and a red difference. If you only wanted black and white, you didn’t need to use the color signals and the image would degrade to a monochrome representation.

The composite video, with only one video signal wire, was similar to what was received over the antenna, with the broadcast signal separated from the carrier signal and the audio sub bands removed. It was the video signal with the color signal still combined. The progression from Antenna -> Composite -> S-Video -> Component -> DVI-I -> DVI-D -> HDMI -> Display Port has been an interesting one. The changes in the digital realm have been less about the image quality, the digital signal can either be read or not, and more about the bandwidth and how much data can be sent, aka resolution and framerate. Those first four transitions in particular had significant impact on the image quality.

Those glares from the others should resolve your confusion.

I think it’s closer to 75% (75.25% precisely). 55% because of the attack and 55% trying to figure out what the picture is. Stacking those stats, of those who weren’t confused at first, those 45% remaining were subjected to the effect of the attack. Only 25% remained unaffected.

Considering I’ve enjoyed some of the “old” videos the algorithm sometimes sends my way, I’m not always disappointed when I find one I hadn’t seen before.

You might say extra redundant?
