Video and televsion are recorded on film, which has a delay on each frame. this delay captures a set amount of time, also known as motion blur.
When people move on film, their body movements are actually slightly blurred (but not so much that it coudl be noticed easily), creating the illusion of smooth animation.
If you play videogames on your monitor, you'd immediately see the difference between 24FPS and 60FPS. If you're a habitual gamer, you'd even be able to see the difference between 80 and 100 FPS (depending on the game).
As someone else has pointed out, interlacing plays an important role in visual perception as well. I can actually see my monitor flickering right now, while I'm running at 60hz (i have an old monitor). It's even more apparent on cheap screens, where I can see the mouse cursor flicker.
On nice TFTs that interlace the image updates and also hold their "color"(persist between updates), it looks really smooth. On horrible flatpanels, it looks really awful, even at 80hz, if they don't use good refresh techniques.
For example, a book with only the cyan and yellow colors highlighted would create a nice dark teal color. Now say if every other yellow was highlighted, it would make an even darker color.
Sorry mistake... I meant if you had a 2:1 cyan to yellow ratio it'd create a brighter color because of the white space. To make it darker you'd have to start adding black dots.
RGB is meant for emission of colors, like from a glowing monitor. CMYK is meant for reflection fo colors, like from a piece of paper.
The poster is trying to allude to the fact that a combination of colors creates whites and grays, not color. I do however disagree that the cots must be stacked to create visible color.
If the dots were tiny enough, it would be possible to use CMYK by dropping uneeded colors to white, and using all of the colors together to create a very dark black, while still keep fairly vibrant colors.

One interesting thing to note: in the picture of their array, it looks like K (blacK) is a very dark blue. I'm sure it looks black to the naked eye, though
Ranking cultures above others is exactly your fucking problem. Maybe its time you take an anthropology course -- obviously you don't like colleges because you're too busy thinking about how great you are.
Your idea that some aspects of culture are better than others is total bullshit. That's like saying your pants are better than someone elses cause you like cargo pockets. Get the fuck over yourself, you have no right to apply your bullshit opinions on other people.
Culture is what makes humans so beautiful, if you don't understand that, then maybe your dream of the ideal society involves cultural genocide.
Cultures evolve by themselves. What you call "Western thinking" was also the idea that they should invade various lands, kill savages, rape women, and them convert them to whatever religion they were into at the time. This was a war on a culture, and on a race of people.
Nice to see you enjoy Native American's so much, even though most of them were killed before you were born.
Culture exists for a reason, it's to keep humans alive on their various scales of society. All cultures are ethnocentric, but is up to the educated to realize that our own ideas, and the ideas of our culture should never infringe on others.
Trying to change a culture unnaturally is cultural genocide. It's just as bad as murder in my opinion. You're essentially trying to destroy the values -- the very essence of emotion in a person. You're no better than religious, racial, ethnic, national, and economic imperialists
The last time I heard racist opinions like yours was when I visted a libertarian website and heard good ol' Pat's opinions.
Your idea that there exists a "western culture" is laughable. Industrial revolutions and technology is just that, an industrial culture, not a "westernized" one. Trying to put slanty eyes vs "western culture" and using democracy as your focus is pure racism. Democracy in the sense of a equal society existed in many places while Europe was still under rule of kings and queens.
I'm not saying democracy is always the best option for a society -- it all depends on whether it is applicable or not. Sometimes a dictator can keep more peace than an elected official.
The only flaws I see in culture is when people start to believe they are better than someone else, 'cause somehow they know "better", and then they actually do horrible things because of it.
That's funny, especially when a KKKlan leader is married to a Filipina.
Racists who marry that race are several times worse than normal racists.
Obviously you are so egocentric you wouldn't understand why cultures are different.
It included a book exchange (free with no ads). He at first was using a forum. Then a couple months later hacked together a bookexchange using mysql and PHP, which he said took longer to design than program.
I'd link it, but he'd lose all his bandwidth.
If you're really that interested, just respong to this post with contact info, and I'll ask him to give you the source.
So many of you have turned to racist stereotyping to ask the question of whether the software will fail.
Work ethic should not be a part of this thread. I'm sure many of you spend endless nights coding, coffee, and masturbation.
It is not the "oriental community" -- try SE Asian.
"Sneaky Asian" stereotyping is also unfounded.
Hentai, yeah that's original.
Engrish, yes, 'cause all those Asian shirts in the U.S. are written correctly. Especially all these new tattoos.
Are you guys gonna start posting Tiananmen square and Vietnamese (cause everyone knows it goes together) napalm pictures like they do on fark.com? That shit is so funnnnnnnnny.
Fact: File extensions are still hidden by default.
A lot of the virsues I have seen play into the hands of people who see extensions in filesystem and email. They are usually named like this:
nakedwoman.mpg (extra long space here).vbs
After connnecting to a LAN, I'd usually get those kinds of files in my shared network folder from other people's computers. It goes either way. Making things more simple for users is how Microsoft stays in business. Although I do have to say, many of their new user features actually make it harder for a good portion of the windows using population.
Countries will pay money to launch from their pad.
The space race in America helped encourage science and education. Education is what makes a good country.
You can't feed and clothe children when you don't have the means of research and technology, nor economic knowhow. Aeronautical engineers have made temendous contributions in all different fields.
Perhaps you didn't know this, but America has poor people too. America also possesses many corporations which create poor conditions in other countries.
Brazilians now have the ability to create commercial networks in space without having to pay uptight snobby Americans, like you, to do it for them.
This is funny how? Excuse me, but last time I checked, USA didn't have a spotless record either.
As the US is slowing down their involvement in space, its up to other countries to pickup the pace. Brazil wants to become part of rocket community, and they're willing and wanting the international community do it in their backyard.

You are by far a classic example of a racist who doesn't know he's racist.

Real media is a sick, sick dog that people just aren't willing to put to sleep.
My friend used to use windows media player as his mp3 player. He stopped using it after we made fun of him.
Ahhhhh, elitist peer pressure, feels so good.
Anyways, back on tangent (cough). Australia Broadcasting Corporation also uses realmedia. They allow you to watch their shows here.
