Oh damn, I’m definitely saving this one for later.

No, not like that. These entitled workers should be falling over to thank their employer for the jerbs they created and kiss the ring for paying them what they are legally required to. Duh! (big /s on that one)

Good thing no one is compromising their country’s ability to research and develop such technologies!

So long as they’re not moving on to a new one, good. Religion is a plague on human society. We don’t need it holding us back.

“Asshole who spent a fortune buying an election suddenly worried about money in politics. Film at 11.”

So?

Holy crap. My theater is $15 per ticket for the giant screen and I still think it’s a rip-off. It used to be — and not like 20 years ago, two years ago — that same ticket was $8-10, depending on the film. They’ve also added surcharges for evening showings, so that $15 ticket after 6pm is now an $18 ticket. My pricing has gone up 30-120% depending on when the showtime is. And this is a rural theater. I don’t even want to know what the establishments closer into the city are charging.

I’m never spending $100 just on tickets; that money could go a much longer distance at home with AppleTV+ or Max or whatever.

My plan is to live forever. So far, so good.

In my experience, the secret is a big jug of fake popcorn flavoring. Yum.

When even the rural theaters are $10+ per ticket, it’s much easier and cheaper to make movie theater popcorn at home at wait for it to hit streaming. A movie outing for my family is like $120 each time with tickets and concessions and such. They should diversify, or they’re going to follow arcades into the dustbin of entertainment history. Ironically maybe this will be a thing that brings arcades back too.

But at least they were born, and isn’t that all that counts?

V10s were cool machines at the time. Then we figured out not everyone needs an 7.5L V8 as an everyday driver. That tech is a dead end. Move on.
