Taylor Sheridan - an education in a 1-minute read....

Nope - not missing a thang. It's about money. The streamed stuff is compressed to save bandwidth making streaming much more profitable. But compressed music has bits per second losses deemed "ok" by streaming venues.
Same thing happens with theatrical movies. The sound on those streamed movies is horrendous compared to a DVD - no comparison.
1883 /1923 / landsman are great. Yellowstone was great till the 4 and 5 seasons.
BBT seems like someone you’d want to have a beer with.
But then every time you see him off stage he looks like someone to throw a beer at

We're not running out of water either. Silly rules regarding inter-basin transfers handicap usage where it is needed.
Example - The Tennessee River flows past Chattanooga, TN at a typical rate of about 18 billion gallons per day. The city of Atlanta, about 90 miles south, has a water supply issue that causes contention with Alabama and Florida, resulting in low flows into Appalachicola Bay.
About 1% of that flow would end the issues with Alabama and Florida, and it's water that is already going to the Gulf of Mexico, just a few hundred miles west, and have the additional effect of reducing flood propensities in Nashville and other areas.
And this doesn't even consider the 1.3 quadrillion gallons of water in Lake Michigan.

Major: you haven't seen the pool levels currently on the Tennessee and its lakes across north Alabama and southern Tennessee lately...about 10 feet below normal.... drove thru Decatur, across Wheeler Lake and across Wilson dam at Florence yesterday, turbines on Wilson not operating best i can tell.....west towards Memphis Big Bear creek lowest I have ever seen...and I am 75.....drawing Atlanta water at Chattanooga would destroy navigation parts of the year.....
Exactly. And this is not to mention the battery issues including, not liking our wyoming cold, mining issues, fire hazards, replacing batteries etc.
Elon is obviously not stupid. And he does not appear to be outrageously greedy. His inventions are open source and he is supporting getting rid of the subsidies for EVs. But his predictions on EVs leaves me wondering wtf?.
What he has done with Space X has been amazing.
The point I was making
is that it was obvious to any one at the time, with half a brain, that CDs were not the destination. It was obvious to me at the time where we were headed. I didn’t comment on whether you guys “liked” the destination. We have arrived. Please place your trays in the upright position.
Look shiny object over there…….
️A while back I said fuck streaming! The way I fixed it was to download (buy) the music I want and don't have and also loaded a box load of CDs I've had forever. all onto iTunes at the original definition (big files). Then I patched that to all my computers, phones and tablets. All that stuff now plays on everything, including my big stereo system at home. Great Sound IF you set up all of it right.The point I was making

In cars with great stereo systems, which I demand, the sound is superb and it's from my iPhone iTunes library (hours and hours of music) which I connect via cable, not Bluetooth. Bluetooth compresses too although less than streaming. I can drive from FL to NC and back without listening any song twice - Huge library
The key to this thing is to make sure that you set ALL iTunes apps on ALL your devices to the maximum for playback decoding, which when set at these settings:
Direct Sound, 192 KHz, and bit sampling to 24 bits - The difference is nothing short of amazing compared to how these devices come setup from the factory.
Basically you are doing your own Streaming to and from you devices at the highest fidelity possible and its quite good!
Be glad to answer questions on this....

Elon is working on a new battery system, ready soon, that will stretch the charge to around 400 miles with less battery weight.
New battery technology would change the equation. In my opinion it would need to be a quantum leap. 400 means what as the battery degrades? 360? Plus you would not want to go all the way down so 320?
The problem with charging is the time it takes. I saw some demonstrate a battery swap technology. Like swapping propane tanks. Drive in and over a machine that removes the battery from the bottom and installs a fully charged on in 60 seconds.
This would be interesting. The battery becomes a transient “core” so you would not need to worry about that 30k replacement charge and in theory the battery supplier would keep batteries fresh and recycle them properly.

Beth has become a cultural icon to women. The example of a “boss girl” It has really been a bizarre and disturbing thing to witness. What they don’t realize is that her psych-pathology and behaviors play into just about every negative stereotype.No Dominatrices for me! I wouldn't poke her with a feather
It would be like us thinking the mayhem guy from the Allstate commercials is a role model for the modern male.
Landman has been good so far. Facts about windmills, absolutely nothing good comes from tier existence. Total waste of land they set on.
Lioness
s good as well at least the lesbians are attractive women.
Yellowstone was Great, I’m not a fan of how much he ends up in each show but more power to him.

Thats what I just finished doing, signed up to Paramount+ yesterday and just finished binge watching all past episodes a few minutes ago.Yeah, I tried really hard not to get sucked into that one when a friend showed me a clip of Billy Bob’s character having a conversation with his daughter about her boyfriend, and I was…well, shocked. And will just leave it at that.
Don’t get me wrong, it was funny as hell, but shocking.
But then in a fit of boredom last weekend I watched an episode…And two hours later had binge watched all available episodes, LoL.
Damn good show.
The candid father daughter discussions and her parading herself around the house were a little shocking, to use your phrase, but it's a great series. Thornton and Sheridan are a good match.
Taylor Sheridan is accurate on real life nuances, like in the last episode the guy getting crushed by the pipe. If they had pulled him out, yeah, he would have bled out instantly.
I lol'd when the ex wife was saying a blessing over the dinner table and goes off on a tangent and someone looks up and asks "Are we still praying?"
Taylor is such a hypocrite blowhard.
His female characters are all self righteous, hair on fire male bashing closet feminists.
I have an idea, how about showing our young women some upstanding women that aren’t pretending to be insane men while hating them. How about some women that aren’t hyper-sexualized irrational self righteousness c*nts.
His strong men are flawed yes but they generally get their due in the morality play. They are allowed to somewhat come to terms with their shortcomings. Sometimes the even face them head on.
Taylor’s effect on female popular cultural cannot be overstated. Be a bitch, ball busting boss babe.
Don’t get me wrong, I like the guy’s work, but when he starts talking about what’s happening to our culture, he’s part of the problem, make no mistake.I just can’t believe he’s oblivious to that fact. It is all about money to him. He is Hollywood through and through, pretending to be” ah shucks” one of us….
Oh and yeah smoking is good for you…..

I liked Beth on Yellowstone, my favorite character.
The scene when her assistant came into her office after she had a blowout with some adversary and was so rattled she dropped the serving tray of coffee and Beth yelled at her for being a pussy, fired her on the spot and told her to to teach a yoga class won me over.

Trapped h2s is what killed Terry "Tank" Hannon, one of the hands featured earlier on Black Gold.
At least 2 killed and dozens injured after leak at a Texas oil refinery
A Texas sheriff says two workers at a Houston-area oil refinery were killed after hydrogen sulfide leaked at the plant.
apnews.com
This just happened a couple months ago in the Houston area. In the Sulfur unit fitters opened the wrong line that was not isolated killed two and gassed quite a few people with h2s.
I work in a sulfur unit so we talked about it quite a bit.
Mayor Of Kingstown is my favorite TS show, and then Landman. Tulsa King is ok, Yellowstone was very good until the final seasons, 1883 and 1923 both sucked in my opinion.
Well thats sucks. I was telling a buddy he supposedly is as humble and down to earth off camera as on.
Surely that mess he has on is for a part in a movie.
No, that's his "style" nowadays. He looked exactly like that on the Country Music Awards a few weeks ago.
