Pretty sure they were just agreeing with you. It's like an argument you imagine in the shower, but co-op mode.

Mate the entire fucking film industry films at a 180° shutter angle (about 1/50 of a second) to get realistic motion blur. If they were trying to avoid it, they would film at something like 1/2500 instead of using ND Filters.

And some big directors / DPs still choose to use film instead of digital, in part because of the film grain.

The point about chromatic abberation is true though.

Don't let that distract from the fact that motion blur in games can fuck right off though. Just wantes to clarify

You just generalized a huge side of the political spectrum as simple minded racists. Then you said that for that reason, their problems don't matter.

Don't you see a problem with that?

Nah that's because they locked a second "transporter beam" onto the pattern while it was in transit, thus basically making a copy. Normally it's supposed to turn your matter into energy in a specific pattern, then move that energy to another location and turn it into matter again.

Now, in my opinion, in our universe, the end result is the same - your continuous consciousness is interrupted/ended and an identical copy of you is created somewhere else. But we're talking about the star trek universe, where thoughts are apparently at the very basis of physics and can directly influence the universe, especially anything to do with "subspace". So it's safe to say that consciousness exists on an additional, metaphysical layer other than just your corporeal form.

Also, there are multiple cases of people being turned into "pure energy" and retaining their consciousness somehow, so I dont see how a transporter would necessarily be different.
