The Tech Random Crap Thread

I'm kinda glad that HDR is still somewhat niche tech, because I'm worried that once it's default on all displays that advertisements will be too bright, just like they're currently too loud.

I had to appear for Jury Selection this morning. I was just now released.

I'm surprised it took this long to dismiss me, given that it turns out the defendant in the civil case being brought is like my 4th largest client, who has spent over half a million dollars on my projects just this summer, and I told them so at 9:15 this morning. Kind of a conflict of interests there, really.

Well, nobody cares about that. Your moving slowly towards the left is unforgivable though.

A while back I noticed that a bunch YouTube channels use the same stock music, and my brain gets confused every time "toy review music" suddenly shows up as "cooking montage tune".

I wondered why YouTube didn't set up a system to connect independent musicians with video creators, so everyone in the chain could benefit. Indie artists get discovered, video creators get more varied music to match their content, and YouTube makes money off of brokering the deals, while also cutting down on the number of copyright complaints. Then I realized that such a system would cut the RIAA out of the picture, and major record companies really do not want YouTube to help people discover music they don't control.
 
Saw that.
Want someone to do the same thing but with Chrome user agent first (or go back and forth) just to make sure it's not some kind of caching thing.
