It seems like a ignorant take. It's FOMO but instead of a missing out on a loot box or a silly cosmetic for a high price. It's about missing out on the sale for a low price.

Nope if the account is gone the data in the S3 buckets after 90 days or immediately if the bucket is deleted.

People that got into Linux when most of the main distributions were easier to install than windows in most cases. Some people wanted to show off that they can install a Linux like it was when we did it back in the 90s for some reason I still don't understand till this day. I do like their wiki though. Works great for debian as well as arch.

Yeah but that's what others have been saying AMC didn't lower the ticket by 50% AMC negotiated with the studios to take a cut or is paying the difference to the studios out of pocket. A movie theater should be seen as two business in a trenchcoat.

The tickets are a direct transaction with the movie studios and they 99% of the total revenue on every ticket. In the old days theaters would get more of a percentage up to maybe 10%. You saw it where the movie would start in the big theater then move to the tiny theater.

That's how dollar theaters worked they played older movies and passed their cut as a savings to the customer. the longer the movie stayed playing but now that theaters no longer have film cans and the studios control how many times that film gets played and pull it after a week or two.

The theaters are still only getting 1% of the ticket but still have to 100% cost of running the equipment and staff. All that money mainly comes from concessions

The answer should be did it make back it's budget + marketing costs. If so it's didn't flop if it made a little profit beyond that then it was a success. Treating film like a stock market speculative balance sheet. Is just wrong.

How is this different than heroic's add to steam option in terms of integration?

It's also people can see they are in the grow phase of the Enshittification life cycle. Once they control the market they make the terms and by that point you won't have a choice. This goes for consumers and developers.

While he is not wrong Source worked at a movie theater for 5 years. AMC model of shitty candy and popcorn is broken. What I don't get why there are not more chains that complete with Alamo. Hell I go watch movies I have at home when they show movies from the 70s and 80s just cause Alamo has a fun atmosphere. At just point Alamo is not even in the same industry at AMC or regal.

First 2 seasons of Arrow were like this. But yes I would watch the shit out of it. Make it a law and order style straight from the headlines and make the rich people resemble real life rich people.

Like there be one for Covid then another one for ebola. Generic ribbons for each mass shooting.

I know it's dark but they need to be recognized. In the Army we would joke our ribbons were our PTSD listed out our chest. Figured it's the same for them.

If someone is dead they should stay dead this is how art dies. It's easier to keep recycling the same time shit over and over. I want to see what the new generation brings to the table.

When having one of my bad days I think of that quote. It's was a random statement in a comicbook of all things. If you check my post history I would be considered a doomer about the climate only but I'm trying to not be.

I was just thinking about the word social media as a term answer how it relates to regular media.

Like what is regular media? it's someone that is paid to entertain you for money or influence you for people that pay them for power.

Now the word social media if it relates to old media what would it be at face value. It's a person that is paid to make you feel like you have a social connection with them for money influence you for people that pay them that want power.

Like what was social connections on the internet before the rise of social media.

It was forums and if we look at that word what is it as face value from the word itself its meeting or medium where ideas and views on a particular issue can be exchanged.

Ideas to be exchanged everyone was equal there was no media personalities no popularity contests. No followers just a group of people sharing ideas around a common interest.

How off base am I? did I miss anything in my reasoning here?
