    ^ See this is the other issue I have with Linux users. $20 says you hate 24/30Hz to HFR conversion as well. You probably hate 3D audio too. You’re all the same.

    Call it “shiny” and “fake” all you want, but it looks a lot more real to me than the dull, stuttery, pixelated video we’ve all been fooled into believing is superior because Hollywood told generations of people that it was, simply because the technology wasn’t there yet.

    Now it’s here, and you people call it “shiny, fake, and rendered” because you’re old and stubborn and unable to accept the fact that technology evolves. Hate to burst your bubble, but it doesn’t actually look the way you’re imagining it does. I wish I could show you in person. You’d become a believer, like everyone else I’ve shown my HTPC setup to.

    If the point of video is not to capture a slice of life, then what is the point of video? 1080p SDR @ 24 FPS does not look real to me, but 4K HDR @ 120+ is much closer, even when upscaled to that.
