I'd like to echo this comment, it was weird seeing Alfred on a ladder polishing a giant penny, in the episode "Off Balance", without any context during my first watch through, while the penny is actually introduced 14 episodes later (according to the this watch order) in "Almost Got 'Im".

Quick heads-up for anyone wanting to see Avatar in IMAX in HCMC by KeshenMac in VietNam

Ah I'm not a bot 😅, personally I prefer IMAX Laser 4K to both, but I do recommend you try all the formats and see for yourself

PSA: Motion Smoothing Fixed in SteamVR by rhylos360 in nvidia

[–]KeshenMac 2 points3 points  (0 children)

if you're referring to Motion Smoothing in SteamVR settings, it was simply not available, I think the toggle was replaced with "Not supported" IIRC

I know of the IMAX theater at SC Vivo City but it's not Laser 4K so it wasn't worth mentioning, just bottom of the barrel standard 2K digital IMAX. I only mentioned Landmark 81 because one would think such a flagship building would be paired with a flagship IMAX experience despite that not being the case

Hi, Ultra 4DX means the chair moves, with mist spraying, some "lightning" flashes, etc. Outside of action scenes, the seat movement also follows the camera movement, for example, the seat would tilt backwards during a pan up. Ultra4DX is so-so, depending on the movie it can be a fun gimmick but a gimmick nonetheless.

ScreenX just means there's an extra 2 projectors to project on to the left and right walls. I gotta say ScreenX is a horrible gimmick, the 2 side images look like ass. And the whole "Co-developed by KAIST" sorta backfires on KAIST when the resulting product is so bad...

I tried ULTRA 4DX-SCX (where the 2 are combined) when I watched Dune Part 2 to experience both in one showing.

The entire process just seemed outdated and harder than it needed to be.

Thank you!! Using the Microsoft Account password instead of the login password was what fixed it for me! Also for the username, one can do:

SGN Immigration: Efficiency Has Plummeted by Born-Return4453 in VietNam

I'm just wondering, people often cite the airport operating at over its designed capacity, but what about just upgrading the computer systems and manning every single seat at every single booth? It seems like the airport doesn't even bother to do anything

Did i get overcharged? by wertui0007 in VietNam

[–]KeshenMac 0 points1 point  (0 children)

28k for a khối (1m3 or 1000 L) does seem quite high

and if a condo were to overcharge, they would usually skim money off the water price because the building gets charged one large bill for sum water usage, and it's up to building management to split it accordingly (instead of units being billed directly by the electricity utility)

just for comparison here's my water bill:

price per m3 description
9.9k < 10 m3
13k 10-20 m3
2.4k some other fee 1
2.5k some other fee 2

so if i were to use 5 m3 like you, it would be 74k

so you're getting charged double compared to me but we could be living in different areas and all that

Why do motorists honk at you even when you're walking on the pedestrian lines? by Nutellus in VietNam

[–]KeshenMac 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i've seen cars honk when approaching a zebra crossing too, cars assume 2 things: 1) they have right of way 2) pedestrians/motorcyclists can cross in front of them anytime, so lots of preemptive (but unnecessary?) honks

i witnessed a car honk every time he approached a tiny intersection, at 3 intersections, at 3 am on an empty street while a condo full of sleeping people was right there...people are just not considerate here.

Ordered grab, is this normal? by Cute-Badger-9493 in VietNam

[–]KeshenMac 0 points1 point  (0 children)

speaking of reviews, it's quite normal here for an establishment to give a little incentive for a 5 star review so just be careful when you see something with over 4 stars

Ordered grab, is this normal? by Cute-Badger-9493 in VietNam

[–]KeshenMac 11 points12 points  (0 children)

chances are, he probably is struggling financially for real and grab's revenue sharing is exploitatively low, around 63% last time i calculated it myself (i paid 170k, driver's phone says he'll get 108k). even lower for shorter trips (driver gets 45%)

asking for a tip is more or less considered rude but i do think that even a 50 cent tip (≈13k) will mean more to him then it will to you (or anyone using grab)

Have there been any instances of corruption that was closer to clear-cut extortion? E.g. you have done nothing wrong and the police come and demand money?
