  • I don’t think you understand what seeing a 4k image or video means. You can’t see a 4k image or video without a 4k screen. Maybe a 15 year old camera can capture it, but you can’t see it, even with today’s phone screens.

    The only TV I’ve ever owned was like 19". The only real-size TVs I’ve ever watched are my parents’ and the one my roommate had in the living room.

    And just because they’ve been available since 2019 (according to you- I honestly can’t remember when they started showing up lol) doesn’t mean they were common or cheap at the time. And both of those units (the ones I’ve spent any time with) were bought around 2016 anyway. Not sure what world you live in where everybody buys a new TV every 3 or 4 years, but it’s not a universal thing, or even the norm. Where having an SDTV might justify a midnight trip to go get a real TV, the need for 4k is less than 0.

    So no, I am quite sure I’ve never seen a 4k image or video. Because I’ve never owned it has access to a 4k screen. That in and of itself is enough to verify that much, without having to worry about how modern it is, it what it was shot with, or recorded on, or how it was downloaded, or where/how it was streamed or any of that confusion.

    No 4k screen means I’ve never seen anything that could only be on one.










  • I disagree. I understand the draw to “secret legal meanings that let you off the hook of a bunch of fees, bills, and taxes”, but literally if you look at it at all without a severe confirmation bias then it becomes pretty obvious pretty quick.

    So by the time they’re on board and posting on facebook about it then I would say they are mentally diseased. It’s not a very strong virus, so if it makes you sick then you’re already in really bad shape, so your sickness is more severe than most if this is your disease of choice.


  • I’m really curious about the “without prejudice” part. I’ve never heard that part of their “lore” before.

    Does it basically end up meaning “give me the rights of this paper/document, but I reserve the right to not meet my end of the bargain”? Because knowing them, this is exactly what it boils down to.

    How much blind faith does it take for these morons to have their whole hope seated in claiming that judges dismissing them bring called a “victory”? To my knowledge none of them has ever succeeded in any way in a court setting, so they have no real examples to point to besides a judge just not seeming it worth the struggle of dealing with them.

    Although at this point we should be seeking to take every one of these cases there are and summarily deciding to rule for their worst case scenario. Movement will likely die off when they spend the rest of their lives such in jail or under an impossible set of fees that they’ll never even make progress on, much less finish off.

    Clearly I jest, but if we could stop ducking these cases and start prosecuting them more harshly, this would naturally go away.





  • I guess that’s true now that you mention it. I never studied throughout high school but if I took notes on it I just knew it. 99% of the notes I took never even got looked at once after moving on to the next page, but I knew that stuff. Maybe this kind of thing is one of the last few uses to die. And this in and of itself won’t prevent it from becoming extinct eventually.
