I am quite upset about my lack of quality movie-going options

North Carolina, in DuPont state forest

Edit: The Hunger Games has a scene filmed here

The competing theater closed around 3 years ago, so the Regal got complacent and has been downhill since then.

The Regal theater here is letting all their projectors go to shit 😡

I have a spreadsheet going of which theater numbers we need to avoid seeing a movie in because the projector is missing the color red and other such issues.

Just Jellyfin and modded Minecraft right now. Nothing super interesting, but great fun.

I'm using SSH to interact with the Minecraft server in tmux, and the web interface for Jellyfin.

Thank you that's definitely something to consider! I've had opportunities to use the Quest 3 at this point but not the Index yet. I've used other fresnel lens headsets in the past like the Vive and Quest 2, but neither has that kind of FOV.

I was very impressed by the way the pancake lenses can keep the entire image in focus instead of having to find the sweet spot and stare straight ahead into it, but an extra 20° of FOV is going to definitely make me question which I value more. I'll have to find a place to try the Index so I can see.

But how is the actual quality better than the Quest 3? That's the part I don't understand.

What about the Index is an improvement over the Quest 3 in terms of quality? Looking up the specs, the Quest 3 seems to be handily beating the Index, a 5 year old headset. Pancake lenses alone are such a massive jump in visual clarity that it's hard to consider buying a headset that still uses fresnel lenses.

I would agree with you if we were comparing the Index against the Quest 2 for sure, but the Quest 3 sets quite a high bar.

Why would it? It's just an android device. LG didn't brick all their smartphones when they pulled out of that market.

SMS is still expensive in other countries, internet access is cheap and WhatsApp is free. For example, it's the only way my mom can keep in contact with her family in South America.

And 60% of Azure is running Linux lol

I recognize that bedrock

The .com of my last name is taken by an actual business. Fine, no issue there. The .net of my last name however is being squatted on by Hover, who seems to have done the same with tons of last name domains and are selling email addresses on them in the form of firstname@lastname.net. The .org of my last name is currently redirecting to the .xyz of my last name, which looks like a family's personal website that lists their address and phone number as a header at the top of the page.

This was the plot to an episode of iCarly

I'm honored any time a comment passes 10

I thought maybe a coffee dispenser, or an ATM repeating itself... It could conceivably be anything!

It would make for an amazing looking gaming table. Not sure how well trying to keep track of your own dice on it would go though...

Is it actually measuring progress of anything as it's happening, or do they just update the percentage when it passes certain milestones? So many progress bars are just straight-up lies that slowly increment a number until the real process finishes and it shoots to 100% from wherever it was at before.

I just like owning the spirally squiggly music line. Hehehe it spins and sound comes out
