in other news, my interweb speed seems to have more than doubled

I was going to ask how long you were staring into an asshole while tracing that cut, but the thumbs are up... someone else is doing it?

Got the idea and gewgled 'goatse hands'.
I chose the ones which weren't renting asunder our deceased chum's butthole. And I think I was wise to do so.

Mine did that a couple of months ago. Impressed, I was.

I've had loads of ideas for phoatieshawp pics to take the piss out of your alopecia, but the thing is, the one pic you posted is a bit shite.
Could you maybe take a pic with your phone and upload it ftw?

The fuck is all that? If I wanted faster internet, I have to go out and buy it. I don't just sit around and notice one day my bandwidth increased.

Myself and Boatse live in coal-mining/semi-rural parts of the UK and we simply cannot purchase faster internets.
We have to wait for people to upgrade our telephone exchanges before magical speeds can occur.

speak for yourself, welshist, I could get 100mb internets here if it wasn't so expensive

Yeah. I didn't really understand a lot of the jargon there. Except to say that a frame is technically a border

Lens shift and keystone correction are ways to alter the image so that the proportions look correct, even though the projector isn't exactly centered, like.

Illustrated, here.

Lens shift is mechanical, which is to say that the lens is physically adjusted to make it look right.

(Digital) Keystone does something similar, but instead of changing the angle and focus of the lens, it uses software to change the image which is to be projected. Lens shift is always better since it just sets the lens and then works passively rather than having to devote processing power to converting the image. Keystone may also distort the edges of the image noticeably depending on how good it is implemented, and how extreme the angles are. With both in combination you do get a lot of leeway on how to place the projector, though.

In my case I watch a lot of stuff through my computer as well, still through hdmi, and could in theory have the graphics card do the keystoning. Haven't tried it, however.

Lumen is a measurement of light. More lumens are brighter.

edit: Technically, I think you can also call what I call lens shift Optical keystone correction, and what I call Keystone Digital keystone correction. Idrk what's more correct. http://htrgroup.com/main.php?section=keystone

So basically like digital zoom and regular zoom on a camera. Except different.

In a way.
