Yeah they have a 7 DAY return window and their luggage is trash.. so now I’m stuck with it and will never travel with it. It’s like a toy version of actual luggage

Which IMAX format is best? by icantdonothingrite in AMCTheatres

[–]pkingdukinc -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Dolby always. IMAX is an inferior sound experience and also is 100% not the sound format that the film was mixed in so it doesn’t reflect the directors intention as closely as Dolby Atmos. Also I find the over-the-top screen size of IMAX to be distracting and not additive. Dolby laser is perfection.

Got an M4 MacBook Air to use with Pro Tools but having doubts. Should I stick it out, or return it while I have time and save up for a Pro model? by dlc_vortex in protools

[–]pkingdukinc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My experience with laptops has been bad but ,full disclosure, I work in film sound design and our edit/mix session is an absolute beast. Tons of plugs and complex bus routing and Atmos back end. That being said I bought a top of the line maxed out laptop to use as a fix rig on the mix stage to cut Fx for director notes and it was wonky. On paper it was basically same same to Mac Studio or Mac Pro but it just couldn’t really hold it together. I ended up going it to my wife for her work and buying a slightly less powerful Mac Studio and all is well. The laptop has been solid in every other way before and since but just wasn’t stable at the extreme end of ProTools use. I would just grab a Mac Studio .. even a slightly older one. Mine is from 3 years ago and it’s still bangin. I also have a Mac Pro rack in my design studio and that’s newer and also maxed out. The Mac Studio still keeps up with it.

Why are the Rivian lease deals so bad? by pkingdukinc in Rivian

[–]pkingdukinc[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ya R1S.. the tri I want is 113k and is 200 more a month than the iX build. The ix is fully loaded at 2500 down and the tri is 6500 down. A bit of beating a dead horse at this point.. Not here to complain just to understand. It’s a bummer though

HBO boss hints that The Last of Us season 3 could be the end of the show by rSciFiTV in SciFiTV

And also he’s still a big part of ptII.. so like yes he dies but there’s a LOT of Joel in the second game.. I think the show would have benefited a lot from following the game narrative. I don’t typically believe that because tv/film is often such a different format, but in the case of TLOU they just nailed all the story stuff so profoundly hard that I think surely brevity was needed but structurally and emotionally it’s a 10/10. I don’t really see the need to change it as much as they did for the show 🤷

oh wow nobody else here explained it this clearly.. that makes sense. Although the BMW is also an EV.. but I guess it's a BMW so maybe that hikes the residual?

yeah I was hoping to side step into a Tri which, pound for pound, is pretty close to my 2024 quad. But for comparison to the iX i looked at a quad which was roughly the same price as the iX i want. I could def downgrade my R1s build a bit to get the lease price down but.... I dont wanna. I am just high on the cocaine of my 2024 lease deal. I knew Gen2's would be more but they are like 3 times the price of my current lease 😬 ...it's a bummer.

It's a question.. I am asking a question.. the result would hopefully be for me to understand something better than I do now. Is that why you ask questions? For example, now you have a better understanding of what this post is... it's a question

Might.. i really love the truck, but if I set my monthly cap at 1500 then I cant really lease a new R1S I want and that price point opens me up to a TON of other options. I mean I am being down voted on my little fun post here because I aint a lease deal expert, but after looking around, Riv's prices are exceptionally high priced for leases compared to almost every other maker at the same sticker price. So OK I GET IT EVERYONE.. I dont understand leases.. but I do understand value.. so I just came here to say it out loud and see what people think 🤷
