  • There is nothing that can be improved by majority fighting tooth and nails to survive. What you need is generations of people who know what the better world looks like, and who’s will wasn’t destroyed by absolute power of a fascist boot on the neck. Accelerationism never was a viable idea, it was always a ruse to make less empathetic among the left to fight for the same cause fascists are fighting for.


  • You can’t build shit for shit, when you’re being actively hunted by ICE for thought crimes, and like third of the Americans don’t know where their next meal will come from.
    In order to build something you need to have a foundation, which you can’t do in a crisis. Democratic party as it is is not a party that people are exited about, and they need to be changed one way or another, but you can only do that if there is no Republicans actively hunting you for sports, and the way US is setup right now, you can either have one or another. Denying that is actively dangerous, acting as if it’s not the case brings objectively horrifying results.






  • The point is that under the best conditions up close centimeters away from your face you can just about see 0.1. And we’re talking 4 times that two meters away.
    Text on the modern tv does look better though. Bu how much of that is that all the technology got better, colours are more uniformed, the light emmiters are more consistent, there is less dead space, etc.
    It’s like that old gimmick with cameras and megapixels. Cameras were getting better, but not because the number of megapixels was bigger, still that’s the only number everyone cared about, so they started selling numbers that didn’t make any physical sence.



  • If my quick calculations are correct, the 70 inches screen at 1080p has a pixel size of about 0.7 mm give or take, where 4k would be about 0.1-0.2.
    0.1mm is a smallest size of a thing a human could potentially see under very strict conditions. A pixel smaller than a millimeter will be invisible from a meter away. I really, really doubt its humanly possible to see the difference from the distances a person would be watching tv.

    The thing is, the newer 4k tvs are just built better, nicer colour contrast, more uniformed lighting, clearer glass, and that might be the effect you’re seeing
