That makes sense in a certain way. But wouldn't some manufacture go: we're not winning the soundbar market, so we'll just make a TV with pretty good speaker system in it. Give it some cool name to explain the cost difference and let the demos and reviews speaker for themselves. I'm not aware of any of the dozen major manufacturers even trying to do this.

I think it's just hard to get good results and still fit everything inside.

On the other hand, I was impressed with a friends' DIY flat panel speakers using some flat panel transducers and a little patience in manually tuning it for his room. So I believe that volume isn't the entire story, as the homebrew flat panels clearly work and sound better than most TVs and pretty much every desktop computer monitor or laptop I've tried.

I think it's a combination of cost, form factor constraints, and lack of consumer understanding for what they are buying.

You left out the part about Marty getting to meet his own mother as a teenager and she started trying to make out with him. Can't leave 1955 without doing THAT first! Kinda the whole point of the movie.

If you used a computer for the math there is an inherent bias in all computers to hide that we are in a simulation.

If you can afford to take children out, then go for it, but man it gets expensive fast. I think it's fair to only take the slow ones that aren't going to be going to college. Leave the nerds at home.

I really liked Castle of the Winds. I think it might have been a win16s API app?

The Linux community is quite capable of designing a decent desktop environment. But as far as I can tell the developers working on it aren't capable of recognizing a decent desktop. Occasionalou they get close to a good desktop, only to throw it all away in a redesign that is demonstrably worse.
We Linux users suspect we don't deserve a good desktop, and for the most part have accepted our lot. It's not nearly as extreme as the psychological conditioning that a Windows user must have to accept the level of abuse from MSFT that they do.

Is Windows the right OS for any job? Seems like a way to install ransomware with extra steps.

All of them apparently?

For parents the nice thing about a restaurant is that there is probably not children screeching there versus guaranteed to be at home.

Is it a noun? A verb?

The source material exists in sufficient number for Rec.2020 to be interesting to movie buffs. And some older panels were not capable of displaying Rec.709, and had significant banding or patterns depending on their soft clipping algorithm. So upgrading one of those to at least a full gamut panel even at HDTV 1080p spec is going to be a pretty nice upgrade and not terribly expensive.

(I say this having implemented soft clipping for a consumer product)

I work as petty bourgeoisie. So I'm already outside that system. But I thank you for your concern and advice.

Fry: So, you're telling me they broadcast commercials into people's dreams? But how is that possible?
Professor Hubert J. Farnsworth: It's very simple. The ad gets into your brain just like this liquid gets into this egg. Although in reality it's not liquid, but gamma radiation.
Fry: That's awful. It's like brainwashing.
Leela: Didn't you have ads in the 20th century?
Fry: Well, sure, but not in our dreams. Only on TV and radio, and in magazines, and movies, and at ball games, and on buses, and milk cartons, and T-shirts, and bananas, and written on the sky... But not in dreams.

Agreed. I'd take improved colorspace gamut, better black levels, and higher contrast over higher resolution.

I think the built-in speakers on a massive 32" CRT cabinet sounded better than the ultra thin bezel-free TVs of today.
