Dolby Vision is one of many HDR formats to give those with compatible TVs the full benefit of High Dynamic Range (more levels of gray) and Wide Color Gamut (more colors). If you don't watch much content that is HDR, you may not need it, but HDR arguably represents the first broadly noticeable...

Windows itself, with compatible hardware, supports Dolby Vision just fine. You're right that anything hanging off of Windows doesn't; DRM typically needs to be present, and that doesn't come from a typical home media server. Unless you sit very close to your TV and/or it is obscenely large...

It seems unlikely that Samsung will ever toe the Dolby Vision line, so they are a non-starter for many if HDR uptake increases. That said, HDR10+ availability has been expanding glacially, with Netflix offering some of its content in that format since May of last year. When Panasonic came back...

Flashlight: a receptacle for the long-term storage of dead batteries.

DMCA criminalizes the reproduction of anything that has DRM, as well as making available technologies that support it. The content need not be formally copyrighted.

Fantasy - Earth, Wind & Fire

Try as they might to soft-pedal the malfeasance, they can't ignore it.

What Roland said except the prices may be much lower. Amazon lists RCA composite/RCA stereo units for under $10. Beware of the units that are USB-powered, as you'll likely need to provide the source. Optical may necessarily involve a loss of surround sound (employing an audio extractor to get...

Costco Salem remains at $2.959 and $3.259 into the third week (much like our current air stagnation advisory).

Octopus's Garden - The Beatles

DIRECTV 10 was carrying 13 transponders at 103cb. Switching them over to DIRECTV 15 should be relatively seamless. The hydrazine propellant is toxic (small amounts are present in cigarette smoke).

Windows users at various levels have already experienced some such patches. The ones (like the recent one) that prevent removing the patch until Microsoft deigns to provide a workaround are particularly devastating.

I'm going to have to agree with Lon and Tyler: ATSC 3.0, on its current trajectory with $60 TV adapters, is going to be a non-starter. The Zapperbox architecture strongly resembles an effort to resurrect the TiVo proprietary client-server model.

Consider what TCL brought to CES and compare that with what Sony announced (they promised future media briefings). Sony has its IP and extensive movie rights, and they seem to be printing money (relatively speaking) in the mirrorless camera business. Sony has what's left of the gaming console...

It appears that TCL has already won as it is. The question that remains is how the branding goes.

Hold Me - Fleetwood Mac

Microsoft released an emergency update (aka "out-of-band") to address major bugs that were introduced with the recent Patch Tuesday update. https://www.bleepingcomputer.com/news/microsoft/microsoft-releases-oob-windows-updates-to-fix-shutdown-cloud-pc-bugs/ Microsoft's stewardship on behalf of...

Gentle on My Mind - Glen Campbell

I've Never Been in Love Before - Frank Sinatra

You certainly buried the lede on that request.

Paper submission will probably always be an option. IIRC, it is the free federal self-e-filing that is under pressure to be eliminated. In any case, the PDF forms for online filing aren't yet available (assuming they become available to individual taxpayers).

Ultimately, the only thing I really miss is a good Income Tax application.

Take Me Home, Country Roads - John Denver

You would likely improve your chances of a response if you shared the nature of the Starlink account (i.e. residential, enterprise/business, roaming, etc.)

Business is business, and companies make "business decisions" (what appears to be financially advantageous versus what represents appreciable technical progress). Apple under Tim Cook has made more than a few prickly business decisions. Apple hasn't been immune to following various industry...
