I’ve seen this sentiment a few times online, so I have to wonder how you all are preparing your tomatoes and the sandwiches that they go in? I just don’t seem to have this problem

Cutting them up wrong? e.g. halved/quartered cherry tomatoes

Is it a stacking order thing? e.g. maybe between slices of Gouda?

Overuse of condiments? e.g. too much mayo/dressing around them

I always season tomato slices before using them, as it’s obviously against the Geneva convention to not, so maybe that’s the extra friction the war criminals are missing?

Yeah I think they’re going for something more straightforward that describes exactly what it’s about

Brushes, Design, Shapes & Multimedia

We have very different size kitchens if you think I have space to leave stuff on my worktop in the middle of cooking

Of course you sanitise the top before you put something else on it, sorry I thought i was clearer about that.

My sink is also deep enough to be able to wash my hands without spraying whatever is underneath everywhere with ease, so I’m thinking that’s point two for different kitchens between where I live and you do.

Finally, who the hell is washing chicken?! That sounds like someone who shouldn’t be near a kitchen

One of the utilities of the sink is that it’s where dirty stuff goes when you’re in the middle of cooking so it’s out of the way of food.

I don’t want to leave stuff that’s been used to prepare something where it could cross contaminate something else. That’s what the sink is for

If you’re letting your sink get full enough that it becomes a friction to being able to actually clean stuff, you’re not doing the washing up frequently enough and should adjust the frequency. And if you put knives in safely, getting stabbed is not a problem; I’ve never managed it anyway

Oh hey

There’s a whole school of political ideology about explicitly not centralising power in the hands of a few people

I guess it’s likely they’re doing some amount of that, yeah. However I believe the way directors typically approach IMAX is to still centre the shot the way you would without the extra vertical frame, so a centred crop would usually be the best option.

I’d find it hard to believe that they never take the opportunity to shift things a bit if it would make it better anyway

Home releases will almost certainly get the non-IMAX, 2.39:1 crop they’ve already cut for standard cinemas, and it’ll get the standard cinema letterboxing you see for other theatrical releases if you watch on a 16:9 TV.

Pan and scan has thankfully died off as a practice

FWIW, 16:9 is mostly used for wide-screen TV content (about 1.85:1), the effect is more pronounced because cinema screens are typically 2.39:1 with most content being that ratio

That’s why you still get letterboxes watching films on TV a lot of the time, despite us all having widescreens now

It’s partly because people would complain the other way if they only used half the cinema screen to display the full IMAX image. I’m not gonna do the maths, but I think Odyssey being 1.43:1 ratio would leave about half the screen blanked out on the sides.

But mostly because it’s the main selling point of IMAX films is there’s more image than a standard ratio. That more is supposed to be mostly in your peripheral vision rather than where you’re focused, directors aren’t really putting anything important in these extremities of the image.

So to pillarbox that image would just dramatically shrink the bit of the screen the viewer should be focusing on, on an already smaller screen.
