  1. I'd say I could get into the top 10, as some of the members there haven't posted in a long time. But that'll take a few years I think.

    Start posting in the Serious Topic section, have an opinion everywhere else that you're willing to voice and defend, and you'll get there in under 6 months!

  2. Just because I was interested in looking for something more recently updated, I found a phpBB theme that is a fairly close match to our current "twilightBB" style, but a bit more condensed. (no 1 inch wide borders on the sides of my screen with it)

    Just colorize it to match the current forum...

     

    Might I also suggest other updates to the forum extension list, like these:

    https://www.phpbb.com/customise/db/extension/lightbox/ (this would be a huge boon for those of us running under 1080p screens, or under 8k in some cases)

    https://www.phpbb.com/customise/db/extension/avatar_in_last_post/ (since we all seem to recognize each other based on our avatars instead of names)

    Just a thought... Not trying to force anything.

  3. It's called caffeine... Just use it in place of all sleep, and you're good to go. (until you get hospitalized, then stop)

     

    I need to find ways to stop posting on this forum...

  4. Trust me. DVD's on my TV don't have as many visible pixels from the quality drops that Netflix does when my internet is being itself. I have tested this. Quite extensively.

    That's because you're using standard upscaling with a DVD player... It covers up most of those artifacts. Also, Netflix standard definition is 320p, not 480p.

  5. If you're using MKV or MP4, you should be able to have multiple audio tracks in the same container, and be able to easily switch them out. If you're using a non-container format, then you'll need to render the video again. (this is why you don't delete your source material until after you've uploaded and watched it)

  6. Unless it's on a multi-montor system, and pumping one screen to each monitor, it's not going to be worth it. Since only about 0.01% of PC users have a multi-monitor setup that can pump out that many pixels (2x 1080p) at a decent framerate, it's not big on their to-do list.

  7. I'd like to ask people's opinions on something...

     

    Subject #20 - US Government Budget Estimates.

     

    How many of us have heard news quotes about "House Committee on the Budget has released new numbers" concerning the US budget? (that should at least be everyone living in the USA) I'm wondering if you've seen this estimate: http://www.usdebtclock.org/cbo-omb-gop-budget-estimates.html

     

    What's your take on the GOP skewing the numbers so drastically in their estimates? (and which estimate do you think is more accurate?)

  8. Just because I was interested in looking for something more recently updated, I found a phpBB theme that is a fairly close match to our current "twilightBB" style, but a bit more condensed. (no 1 inch wide borders on the sides of my screen with it)
