Remastering can be a great thing (the glow up with, for example, WITHNAIL AND I remaster that I recently watched is a night and day difference) but it needs to be done with care. It's not just about scanning and changing the lighting/perspective.
HBOMax has started showing a 'remastered' 4K Mad Men and they’ve messed things up so during Roger’s oyster vomit scene you can now see the crew men with the vomit hose on the right

Honestly "Don't Engage, Just Block" has transformed my social media experience so profoundly that it's hard for me to describe. It's just so much better to be online now.
i also liked the fact that most of us who had come from the other site had the mentality of not giving "bad actors" the benefit of the doubt on here , and told all to block, not mute, an move on

And, as always with my @dosomedamage.bsky.social, there's an incomplete list of things what I read and watched over the last month, all of which I would recommend for one reason or another... (I tend not to list things I didn't enjoy...)

Anton Chekhov, a writer of mysteries? He wrote one mystery novel anyway. A few thoughts on the somewhat neglected THE SHOOTING PARTY at @dosomedamage.bsky.social.
