I don’t know enough marvel to get the last one. Any help? Is she blind at some point?

    Van Gogh cut off his external ear, but I never heard somebody say that he couldn't hear from that side anymore.

    Maybe they did but someone had cut off your ear?

    I'm pretty sure that I'd remember if someone cut off my ear, unless, hmm... What if I had a lobotomy and don't remember?

    You could be brain in a jar. Also the universe could've been created last Thursday

    Unfortunately, the company that was developing it wanted to work on a different universe instead. So even though it was insanely popular, they rushed the ending and completely shit all over the story up to that point.

    Beethoven got deaf (or nearly deaf) at quite old age. Doesn't really count either. Also Beethoven never used shitty composite video or even HDMI. These are strictly consumer crap. If good old Ludwig wanted to see his work he directed a fucking symphonic orchestra - and if he didn't like what he got to see it was da capo until he liked it.

    Alright, somebody’s gonna have to explain it to me, cause I don’t get it.

    Van Gough had one ear, so he’s missing one audio cable. Beethoven was dead deaf, so he is missing both audio cables. Wanda was in love with the character Vision, and he died, so no video cable for her.

    Edit: typo 🤣

    Those cables are RCA, for trasporting audio and video;
    Red(right channel) and white(left channel) for audio, yellow for video

    Fun fact: there is no right or left channel in the RCA standard. One (white IIRC) is positive both channels and the other (red IIRC) is negative right. That way one is actually mono with both channels overlayed, to get stereo the system (tv, hi-fi, etc…) subtracts one from the other and then inverts the negative one for two channels.

    Given van Gogh's blotchy, artefact ridden, lo-fi video output; I'd say the coaxial shielding on his yellow wire was pretty badly damaged.
