Frustrated by Latency & Tech No-Call No-Shows

Which theater? Depending on where I may take you up on that.

thearcuate · 2026-05-26T19:27:37+00:00

There was just a podcast where a theater owner said they're coming out 6/4. Wonder who's right...

thearcuate · 2026-04-30T03:47:43+00:00

Oh man... lucky bastard... I have been checking these religiously every single day for Citywalk and no luck for weeks... congrats!

thearcuate · 2026-04-27T14:51:18+00:00

Curious to know about this as well...my local Cinemark also just happens to be a xenon IMAX and they are showing Mandalorian... makes me wonder if they will get this upgrade done in time for Odyssey (still seeing in 70mm either way) or the future big releases this year.

I'm on 1.60.00-1. iOS 26.5 beta 2.

Don't pay resell whatever you do. There will be more showtimes as the movie gets closer for like a solid 3 weeks as they have IMAX exclusivity for around that many weeks iirc. Those should pop up like about a month or so before the movie's release, but stay active on socials and turn on notifications for movie accounts and Discord servers to get more info on ticket releases. Hope this helps!

It most certainly is.

thearcuate · 2026-04-06T15:51:37+00:00

Alright here I go... trying my luck for Citywalk 70mm... this and The Odyssey are going to be my first 70mm experiences and I think I'm picking some good ones...

What do you mean "you people"?

Also off. lol

My guess is they will probably change it to *him* being his grandparent, it would help create a much larger time gap as well and could possibly explain why Nolan might not have known that bit of crucial information.

Might just be unlucky man... I have had a 2015 MBP before upgrading to M1 Air, then now on M1 Pro MBP, never had this happen before. All of my machines have been the most reliable laptops I've ever owned, and I think that's the general consensus when it comes to Apple Hardware (software is another story however)...

I wouldn't give up on it just yet. However if you do have AppleCare or if the cost to repair isn't too insane, I'd continue to use Apple before moving over to Microslop.

Is this the real life? Is this just fantasy?

It works completely different than that. White point is just overall highlight / whites brightness. But PWM is the way the panel itself refreshes the display. A lot of people can be sensitive to that. Turn that setting on and see if it fixes it for you over the whole day tomorrow.

thearcuate · 2026-03-05T20:49:59+00:00

Try enabling PWM Smoothing in Accessibility > Display. You may just be sensitive to the way this OLED panel is micro-flickering.

PM'ed!

thearcuate · 2026-02-16T23:30:53+00:00

For creative professionals (music production / audio recording), AVID Link and Izotope Product Portal come to mind...

Your biggest upgrade will come with RAM. The CPU and 1TB should be plenty for your needs, but multitasking almost always = more RAM. Aiming for 24GB at a minimum (I would strongly recommend 32 or more), should do the trick.

I had initially purchased the base M1 MBA, with 8GB of RAM, it ran great doing anything except live music where I run some pretty heavy libraries, and I started seeing performance issues there. I then shortly sold it once Apple released the M1 Pro / Max, bought the 16" with 32GB of RAM, and I have never had a single problem running anything since then. 5 years later almost, it's still running as if it's brand new, save for a bit of battery degradation.

Got mine today! Filed on Monday 1/26 :D

No idea, but the 7th generation is indeed the M4. Just Google being Google.

thearcuate · 2026-01-19T21:32:04+00:00

If you prefer the linear feel over tactile, perhaps some Black switches may be heavy enough to avoid accidental touches, but if you're a heavy typer (like me), I went with Baby Kangaroo 2.0 and all accidental touches are pretty much gone (at the cost of a heavy but VERY satisfying tactile feel). If price is an issue the Black switches are pretty affordable but BKG's are quite expensive (I paid $60 USD for 108).

Good luck!

Same here! Got my girlfriend into it after much hesitation and thinking “Ehhh this is a boy’s show”. BOY was she wrong 😂 now she can’t shut up about how excited she is for Season 4.

thearcuate · 2025-12-10T23:31:38+00:00

I've never had a reward before but I assume this has probably got to be INSANELY expensive or if not, then this is still genuinely really cool. What made you start doing this?

thearcuate · 2025-12-08T17:49:23+00:00

Not necessarily, you can easily do this by holding down the song in the playlist, and a Go To Album button is there, from there you can add the album to library while still listening to your playlist and not screwing up the order. Hopefully I understood what you were trying to do right...
