Sinemia
I was hoping that I could get them to refund the rest of the year I paid for, but no luck yet. So now I can't see movies, nor do I have my money, really helping the breakage for this plan. I suspect that usage of Sinemia accounts is much lower than MoviePass. I saw 8 movies on my first month with MoviePass and it was easy, but I had to sit in a bad seat, as I bought them at the theater, with Sinemia I can buy in advance, but I usually don't because it is too hard, often I get frustrated with trying to plan a movie long term and don't use it. They do let you roll over. All in all it might work for some people, but I saw my wife book a movie in 2 minutes using the Century Cinema app, which is so much easier. Not as cheap, but with the issues that this Sinemia app has, maybe worth it. Besides Sinemia serves ads now in a really annoying way.

My parting words to Sinemia
The experience of trying to book a movie with Facebook, Atom and Sinemia, then getting billed again makes me want to pull my hair out. Seriously this is so much worst then MoviePass. The icing on the cake is the 1.70+1.80 you want to charge me today for a move I was expecting to see for free when I signed up for this service, yet the ToS keep changing.

solder fix cheap Chinese all plugs welcome
So I inherited this very useful universal power strip with a light and fake ground pins.
it works well enough most of the time, but the 3 left smaller plugs are not powered, hmmm.
Opening it shows that 3 cold solder joints are the issue, well, time to get my never used $25.99 soldering kit, seems Amazon discontinued it, however this ANBES Soldering Iron Kit Electronics, 60W Adjustable Temperature Welding Tool, 5pcs Soldering Tips, Desoldering Pump, Soldering Iron Stand, Tweezers $18.99 looks like a better deal as it includes more heads. As an Amazon Associate I earn from qualifying purchases. So I welcome your buys, as they will allow me to do better teardowns and videos.
Above are some washing machines, they might make an interesting tear down.
