p3r514n on Samsung 85" AU8000 Crystal UHD 4K Smart TV (2021) $1999 Delivered @ Samsung EPP

Uniformity doesn't mean much when the blacks aren't actually black, rather a bright glowing grey.

Generally speaking if it's a 99/100% sRGB / 72% NTSC model they will say so. If it's not, they often won't mention it at all. So it doesn't...

Interesting. Are you on it? If so what's your latency and stability? Always seems to be an issue with FW and satellite services.

The quoted minimum upload is no better though?

b0nd on Orawell COVID-19 Rapid Antigen Single Use Oral Saliva Test 1 Pack $16.50 + $4.45 Delivery @ Geardo

According to the ACCC wholesale prices vary from 3.50 to 11.50. So some will never be anywhere near $10 for now. No idea where this one...

Well said. So your odds improve from 33% to 67%, and in the 1000 example, from 0.1% to 99.9%.

Again, that's not how probability works lol. In this case the improvement in probability comes from the doors being removed, not from you...

Lol! That's not how probability works. The instant 1 of the 3 doors is removed, your odds improve to 50% for BOTH doors. You don't have to...

If you need "more colour accurate photo or video editing" then you go well beyond 72% NTSC/99% sRGB, not to it. 99% sRGB is the norm and...

45% NTSC means it's missing 1/3 of the colour vs. any TV, monitor or decent laptop screen. Otherwise the screen is good.
