...if you're stuck in apartments, and pretty much anyone under 50 is, then there isn't really any advantage to an electric car.

Tell the Russians your astroturf is getting stale as fuck and you need some new lines. This is the stupidest and most easily disproven strawman argument ever. Public chargers are common enough in the urban sprawl that when you have to charge your car for a half hour or so every other week for your (gasp!) 7-mile commute you won't have any problems doing it, even if there's no way to [charge it overnight all night every night] as you profess to obsessively think would ever be even remotely necessary in any un-contrived situation, and at about half the cost of the equivalent miles in gasoline unsubsudized, good luck making the math part of that argument work too. Giving you the absolute greatest benefit of the doubt for all this stupid bullshit, I have to assume you just love huffing gasoline and you love smelling like it too, and it has damaged your judgement... because it couldn't be the Russians paying you for this lie on a loop, could it? Could it??

I've come to realize that whenever you see stuff like this going on, usually what's going on behind the scenes is there's an internal ideological struggle between one management group that's just trying to maximize profits through industry-tested methods and another that's trying to force the timeline to adhere to some childishly insane satanic prophecy.

Not sure if it counts because the wifi is only used for peer-to-peer connections with other Nintendos or Nintendo servers. There's no stock web browser or generic media players or such in the store and no way to connect to unlicensed 3rd-party applications or make generic ad-hoc data transfers of any sort, so it might be arguably still a closed ecosystem.

To be fair, AMC tickets are usually the cheapest of all the still existing major theater chains by far. I'm sure that by doing this they're just trying to balance the budget. Don't forget that not long ago they were about to have to close their doors permanently until they were saved at the 11th hour by a meme-stock craze. Will it work? Who knows... but I'm sure you can still find more expensive theaters showing fewer trailers.
