This is a personal collection of things I find around the internet.

Alright, so somehow you found this place. Here's what to expect:

Due to the nature of this place, you may find a bunch of stuff that you don't care about, but you may also find a new passion.

So, the gist is, this is a place where I'll share random things, and you'll discover the internet with me.

Oh yeah, I didn't advertise this place anywhere, so hey, how did you even get here?

Check out the sister sub where you discover music with me! !andromusiccollection@lemm.ee

Honestly? Sound mixing in a lot of movies and some shows sucks ass nowadays. You have uber loud explosions and then relatively quiet speech.

Tenet was an amazing movie (many disagree, but it's a matter of opinion - I really enjoyed it), but I wouldn't have heard half the dialogue. Subtitles helped.

It's all supposed to be immersive - after all, explosions ARE loud. But I don't want my living room to explode. I want a lower range of volume.

Shit, watch an old action movie. The speech isn't as quiet compared to the explosions and gunfire as it is nowadays.

Strongly agree with the audio mix here, that's my biggest problem.

Additionally, having kids running around making noise, subtitles have become a necessity most of the time for me and the wife.

We try to keep them off as much as possible though because we do find them distracting.
