Small thing but I'd love some metadata about the comment or post when I'm replying. Things like the time it was posted, username and maybe even subreddit with the instance. The full thread for nested comments would maybe be nice but maybe the ui for scrolling through that would be messy.

A company like iFixit you mean? Both sides can play that game. I'll grant you that McDonalds probably have more money to burn on bribes but still.
It depends on how you define "get".
The short answer is yes followed by 'not from netflix/amazon/disney/whoever' (except maybe sometimes but not really) because they use DRM to protect their content. Very effective DRM that doesn't really do anything... Their loss I guess...
That's what american corporate training teaches you. Blinking is associated with deception and lies so they teach you not to. Smiling instill trust and friendliness. I wouldn't hold it against him and he clearly doesn't want to be in front of the camera either.
They must all have reached nirvana when they realized they could build in planned obsolescence straight into the platform. No more replacing a tiny belt, now they get to sell a brand new car when the battery goes bad!
I really hope that this regulation from the EU stick and it doesn't get shut down by Germany as usual when they act as an extension of the auto-industry.
The cars will be fun to see unfold considering new EV platforms have them integrated straight into the platform the chassis is built upon.
Center channel downmix boost or something is the name. Iirc the phenomenon with quiet dialogue is due to most streaming content being delivered with surround audio. The shitty cheap video players used by the streaming services will do a cheap flat downmix to stereo which results in the center channel being too low when split into two mono channels for playback on stereo speakers compared to if it would be played on a dedicated center speaker. This is due to maths or something.
Back in the day dvd and even vhs movies had proper stereo mixes where the center channel would be boosted to audible levels.
Tl;dr: just pirate shit and use a proper video player instead of the cheapass players used by netflix, disney, etc.
