See ya on the other side.

Somehow even less useful, since the source can’t even be verified.

My point is it serves no purpose here.

So explicitly not an expert.

What exactly has he done to warrant considering this? He’s a yt star, not a privacy expert.

The opening is always a bit naturally DDOS’d. It’ll smooth out.

It can vary. I haven’t been to many movies lately, but 25 minutes of ads was pretty standard at the chain cinemas with the popular movies. Smaller theaters and/or smaller movies could be as low as 10 minutes sometimes. Just gotta keep in mind the context and plan accordingly.

I do this at un-reserved theaters too. Just gotta be more flexible with your seating. Unless the theater’s absolutely packed and you get stuck at the very front, most of the seats are going to give you a good experience. It’s what the theater’s designed for.

Just go in 20 minutes later? Been doing it for years at this point.

This isn’t TACO, it’s graft.

This is the more typical process, ime.

It’s not a competition and you’re being a jerk.

PatrickStar.meme - “Is Money a legal basis?”

Stumbles ass first into giving creative control of their property to one of the most devoted and talented studios of the decade, leading to a wildly successful and popular game.

“That’s great! Let’s give it to someone else!” - some stupid ass exec who can only see ahead one financial quarter at a time.

And I’ll voice mine.

Mine is neither, but go off.

Nah, I think I will.

Lol, the cognitive dissonance of whining about capitalism because their vidya game got a little more expensive. Not only is the entitlement and hypocrisy off the charts, there are so many ways to play games for cheap and/or free, the criticism is entirely moot. Don’t like the price a company is asking for for an entirely optional commodity? Don’t fucking pay it. It’s not that hard.

You already answered your own question, bud.

it doesn’t make sense TO ME. Based on what I was taught

Why do you think other people are different than you?

Blackmailing customers onto your service isn’t competition.
