Is it not possible for the sun to capture an interstellar object?
That doesn't make sense. If the Earth is 12,000km in diameter, surely it will take a few minutes to traverse and not multiple times per second?

Edit: Oh never mind, you meant the velocity needed to catch up with it.

There is the same issue with youtube in the browser, where the sub-woofer is not used. When I went from netflix in browser to the wd-tv I was very surprised when the sub-woofer kicked in.

Both HTPC/WD-TV connect to 7.1 amp with sub.

I've noticed before that running Netflix in a browser causes it to lose all bass. But if I run it through my WD-TV media player then the bass is there.

Is this still the case? Is this problem across all browsers?

The problem is that everyone will want to have a jury of their peers.

So drug dealers would want to be judged by a jury of drug dealers, for example.
