Naar Posted March 13, 2017 Posted March 13, 2017 Interesting thread to ask this, but yes 4K is the same as 3840x2160 aka 2160p 1920x1080*2 which creates a resolution four times the size of 1080p. Hence the 4K moniker. I always ponder about useless things when im drunk. But doesnt the K in 4K stand for kilo? Or 1000? I thought they wanted to have a 4000 resolution, since 3840 is pretty close to 4000. But then, 1080p would be 1.9K, so 2K...
Nolan Posted March 13, 2017 Posted March 13, 2017 I always ponder about useless things when im drunk. But doesnt the K in 4K stand for kilo? Or 1000? I thought they wanted to have a 4000 resolution, since 3840 is pretty close to 4000. But then, 1080p would be 1.9K, so 2K... Well that's the wonderous thing about colloquial knowledge and naming conventions. They don't make sense and do what they want. Yes 4k refers to the approximate horizontal pixel count of 4000. In fact there is a different acceptable spec of 4K that is 4096x2160. There is also a 2K resolution spec that is 2048x1080 (half of 4K). Those are DCI specs though and consumer ranges differ obviously. Basically for no reason at all society flipped how they refer to resolution from vertical to horizontal. And with the switch we've also decided to be a bit less exact. Resolutions are a funny thing. Go to some hardcore hardware forums and you'll find people that swear up and down that 1920x1200 is worlds better and gives so much more work space than 1920x1080. (16:10 vs 16:9). It's hilarious stuff. A fun read if you care to ponder resolutions more. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Display_resolution
MoogleViper Posted March 13, 2017 Posted March 13, 2017 It's basically whatever sounds better and can be more easily marketed. 1080p has a better ring to it than 1920. Similarly 4k sounds better than 2160p. But yeah, the horizontal/vertical switching is confusing.

drahkon Posted July 28, 2017 Posted July 28, 2017 Started to drink just now. Playing Awesomenauts on PC and listening to Muse. And singing along. My neighbours must hate me. Might go to a club later, depending on how drunk I am. Would be the first time going to a club alone. Why would I go alone? Because apparently all of my friends don't party anymore. Fuck me, I'm almost 28 and I want to party every weekend. All of my friends are at least 5 years younger...what's happening to this world?
Nolan Posted August 1, 2017 Posted August 1, 2017 I'm only just 28 this past month, and my friends are all older and still like to party. Maybe your friends are broken?

Maybe your friends are broken? Would you and your friends please come to Germany? I need you Literally NONE of my friends are interested in parties anymore, it seems. Asked 7 if they wanted to join me tomorrow (big party outside of a dorm). No one wants to come...most of them suggested that we stay at someone's place and just watch movies. Would be a good idea if we didn't do this every weekend anyway... Looks like I'm going alone tomorrow and Saturday night.

Looks like I'm going alone tomorrow and Saturday night. One of them actually has been there before! We aren't much for clubs though. I'm okay with bars though, not that I've ever gone alone. House parties though I always show up and get my drink on. I do have my passport, I need to travel more. I've only used it once 3 years ago to go to Canada.

Will probably drink tonight and go to a club. I'm in the mood for dancing and I don't mind going alone.
drahkon Posted August 5, 2017 Posted August 5, 2017 (edited) Alright peeps. Getting my drink on. Gonna watch the German Supercup in an hour. Until then I'll play video games and drink. After the match I might go dancing, depending on how drunk I am. Edit: Just realized this post reads like a facebook post. Sadly, I forgot to take a picture of dinner...would've loooooved to shared that here Edited August 5, 2017 by drahkon 1

Always thought it would be weird to go alone. But fuck it. Just do whatever you feel like doing. Edit: I donÄ't know Edit: listening to Midge Ure's cover of "The Man Who Sold The World".
