@lemmy.world... And you end up accidently clicking a button that was previously above, and landing on a page you didn't even want to see!
White background & gray text.
When did we shift away from black text?
There's less contrast with gray, and on a lot of displays it's more difficult to read, and more straining on the eyes.
It sounds like you're coming at science from a religious or philosophical standing, and blurring the lines.
Science can explain and account for everything in life, whether you understand it or not.
There are plenty of things that we as humans do not yet understand, but it's all still science.
The question of 'why did this have to happen to me/them' is completely null and void; it's a question stemming from a belief system, not a scientific system.
Person X got cancer because they were genetically predisposed to it, or they encountered a environmental occurance that caused it. Person Y had a heart attack at 50 and died because they had a preexisting heart condition, or they were unhealthy, or an environmental incident occurred that initied it.
The philosophy of it is not scientific, it's philosophical and has no valid place in a scientific explanation.
Discussing philosophy can be thought provoking, entertaining, enraging, and enlightening all at the same time, but it's totally different to discussing science.
As for coping strategies, accepting that some things are simply out of your control is a good place to start. Easier said than done at times, I know. We as humans gravitate towards belief, we've likely evolved to do that. But again, that's science. Know your limits, understand that you won't always have control, and accept things that are beyond your reach. Life won't always be fun, but you're the only person in charge of your own thoughts and feelings. Use that to your advantage whenever you can.
The Water Temple was a nightmare of a level. Easily the hardest point in the game. If you stick with it, the everything that comes after it seems relatively straightforward!
That being said, having finished the game multiple times many years ago, I played through Breath of the Wild then went back to Ocarina of Time, and it felt very dated. Lots of nostalgia, but the control system is that of a very primitive game by today's standard for open worlds.
As for your question though, The Lost Levels in the Super Mario Allstars game. I've never gone back to it after all these years, might be worth trying again now with fresh eyes :)
Oh OK, so when we're talking about adverts, are we talking about only when using the native smart apps like Netflix or Prime?
Sorry I know this seems like such a dumb question now I'm writing it out, I just feel so out of the loop now.
I generally run everything through my PC onto the TV, it's basically a glorified media centre, so I've never had any need for a smart TV. Problem is its got all sorts of screen burn now though, so I badly need to upgrade. I was planning to spend about 1.5k on a good new one with decent visual quality, low response time for gaming, etc.
We're looking to get our first TV in years, the current one is about 10-12 years old. We don't watch normal 'tv', everything is streamed through another device.
What kind of adverts can I expect in a modern current-gen TV?
