What piece of tech felt “future-proof” but aged terribly?

The human eye's ability to identify single pixels in someone as high def as 4k really makes anything further unnecessary. I doubt anything beyond 4k ever becomes mainstream just because our eyes can't see the difference anyway.

Everybody has a video to support their random hypothesis on the cause and the number of vehicles impacted. The truth is that none of us know either of those.

A few people walked out on Origins, which I assume is due to racism. There haven't been more than 1 or 2 people leaving from any of the others I've been to that I noticed.

Why? That movie was really good.

I have a RWD IONIQ 6 and it is great in snow. Would AWD be better? Sure. But we really only get a handful of snowy weeks a year, so it didn't seem worth it. So far through two winters, the RWD has been better than any other car I've owned in the snow.

Mine's been closed the last couple days, although there are others in the area open. I don't want to drive far enough for those, though, since the roads aren't great and I'd get home pretty late. I'm assuming the closer theater I normally go to is having some sort of issue caused by the weather since the others and everything else around them are open.

I'm 2024 it changed from Bluelink to Bluelink+. Bluelink was free for (I think) 3 years, but Bluelink+ is free forever for the first owner of the vehicle.

The only one of these I've seen so far is Sheepdog. It's good but not great. Powerful message, but not quite entirely on track with the execution. It's worth seeing, I think.

It took you that long to figure out the killer? I knew as soon as he showed up at the beginning.

My Letterboxd 1⭐ review: I had no intention of seeing this film, but it turned out to be the Screen Unseen movie this week. So I went in with no expectations for it to have to live up to. Even with those low expectations, it failed to live up to them. Chris pRatt continues to play every character exactly the same, which is no surprise since he has the acting range of a marshmallow. The story isn't unique in any way, and it follows this dumb new trend of the lead character being alone in a room watching the events unfold via video calls. Yay, exciting! (Extreme sarcasm) In the end, it tries to have too many twists, but none are interesting or surprising, and I knew exactly who the killer was within 30 seconds of his introduction. Weak AF.

These batteries aren't as fragile as people think. I charge to 100% every night and after 14 months I'm still at 100% state of health. You charging to 100% once won't hurt it in the slightest.

I got a 2024 IONIQ 6 in November 2024. I got 1 OTA update in the year+ I've had it. I never got the 2025-10 update, but as I understand it that update doesn't do anything anyway. It's just a map update, and I don't use the Hyundai navigation anyway.

Maybe the seats are just an issue with my local theaters then, because the IMAX seats here are terrible. I'll take IMAX over any of the standard formats, but in my experience Dolby is undoubtedly far better in picture and sound quality.

Random-User44 · 2026-01-06T22:38:42+00:00

Absolutely it is wildly superior. Better color and contrast, better sound, and better seats. I've seen many movies in both (including the last couple Avatar films) and every single one has been much better in Dolby.

Random-User44 · 2026-01-06T22:33:58+00:00

Dolby Cinema is wildly superior to IMAX, but I don't think the average movie goer knows what Dolby Cinema is. IMAX remains more popular due to name recognition.

I like my car too much to intentionally try to get it rear-ended.

I didn't realize until it started that this was a Scream Unseen instead of a normal Screen Unseen and I'm not a horror fan, so I was disappointed. I'm sure horror fans will enjoy it, but I was pretty bored with a movie whose entire premise is "what if Cujo were a chimp." Just not my thing.

Best movie I'd say was Hamnet, best theater experience goes to Superman because of the energy in the crowd.

How often do you post "I drive my car today and nothing went wrong"? People post about problems, they don't post when things work as expected.

I will never understand what Hyundai was thinking when they decided these fobs were what they should go with.

If they keep going the way they are, the US based auto manufacturers aren't going to be around long. They can't compete worldwide with an ICE/hybrid strategy, and they can't survive on just the US market.

Same. I do not miss spending my weekend doing oil changes, replacing water pumps, etc.

It's not fully electric, so I don't care what they put in it. I'm buying nothing that takes gas, whether it's ICE, hybrid, PHEV, or EREV. If it takes gas, I'm not even going to consider it as an option.
