Quote and it has the bonus of the max volume.Pretty sure you can do the same in MPC, just not by simply adjusting the slider to 200% as VLC does. Either way, I use both interchangably. The main advantage VLC has to me is its ability to watch streams and such. 14708
The Flood / Re: Actually Hearing Your Real Voice« on: October 06, 2014, 03:26:51 AM »
Everyone hates their own voice being played back to them. I've been told it's due to recording distortion and the fact that we hear our voice fuller and deeper than others do because of resonance in our own head and whatnot, giving people the impression that what they're hearing is foreign, weird and not at all in line with the impression they have of themselves. It's science stuff.

Seems like several parties were somewhat at fault here.
Walmart should not have left that gun out like that, even if it was just a BB gun. The guy should've known better than walking around with it like that. Even if it isn't an actual gun, it sure looks like one, which is something he should've kept into consideration. The police should not have been this trigger happy. It's hard to judge from a blurry security camera filming something at a poor angle like this, but seems like this could've been dealt with differently. And of course, this is something that wouldn't have happened if it wasn't for the ridiculousness of publicly carrying firearms and US gun culture. 14712

Serious / Re: "Don't judge a religion by its fundamentalists"« on: October 06, 2014, 02:52:24 AM »
Below is an exerpt of some contradictions in the bible. I think we can all agree that holy scriptures are incoherent and contradictive to the point that even fundamentalism is nothing but picking and choosing what you want to believe, while completely ignoring or willingly misinterpreting the verses that stray from your beliefs.
I personally feel that a religion should be judged on its own merits and weaknesses, not those of the people who practice it. The reverse applies too, though. The religious should be judged and assessed on a person-by-person basis. There's a whole lot of hateful, intolerant and oppresive people of all religions and beliefs; 14716
Serious / Re: Cop Shoots Man as He Complies« on: October 06, 2014, 02:31:10 AM »
This can hardly be justified. One could argue that by not responding and just reaching back inside the vehicle, the cop may have been under the impression that he was reaching for a gun. Seems pretty clear that this is not the case though, and that the cop acted way out of line.

Gaming / Re: So did Destiny "surpass Halo"and is able to "sit alongside Star Wars"?« on: October 05, 2014, 02:44:50 PM »Quote We like to tell big stories and we want people to put the Destiny universe on the same shelf they put Lord of the Rings, Harry Potter or Star Wars Quote What excites me is a number of years ago we talked with Activision and Activision believed in that vision, and that's why we like this partnership so much; these guys know big entertainment as well. They prove it over and over again Quote At a quick glance, someone watching Destiny may think it looks quite similar to Halo, but the game's focus on social connectivity takes the experience another step beyond Halo. It's really just an evolution of what Bungie set out to do as far back as Marathon. It's ultimately in Bungie's DNA.Makes me wonder whether he's just flatout lying or if these people are actually delusional enough to fall for their own bullshit. 14723
