I just subscribe to max 2 services at a time.

And there are a few things I just didn't watch because not worth it.

It really is. I've been using an Nvidia Shield for my living room TV. All of a sudden this week it showed a Lidl ad right there on the homescreen. Those fuckers. Replacement is on its way, fuck Nvidia.

What did you end up choosing as your replacement?

I have a TV streaming device that needs replaced and I've struggled to decide what to replace it with.

I mean, yes fuck nvidia for sure, but I think those ads are via the googs. They have ramped up lately for sure.

In either case, I ignore them for now as I click into the jellyfin interface and enjoy my library.

All of a sudden this happened years ago.

It became the thing it sought to destroy: cable

Good thing uBO exists, and uBOL for Chromium.

[–] orbituary@lemmy.dbzer0.com 14 points 21 hours ago

layers and layers. secure dns, UBO*, not paying streaming services... you know, the holy trinity.

Good thing Pirate Bay exists.

I am hoarding all the Linux ISOs.

[–] OwOarchist@pawb.social 8 points 19 hours ago

Smart move. You'll still be able to use them when the government tries to ban them for lack of age verification spyware.

I mean... I wouldn't say that the 3€ I pay for my torbox monthly are so much money as to be considered a luxury but I guess not everyone can afford that much for a sub...

firefox and ublock~

Thom Yorke has literally tried everything for selling music. Though it all he's seen the music industry eventually consume it.

You can't invent something new without it eventually turning into what was the old. We can always keep moving the tech, we can always keep inventing some new platform, but we never get to keep to ourselves forever.

The reason why this keeps happening is because people keep trying to apply a solution that doesn't apply to the problem. We don't need some NEW method of delivery. We just need to get rid of the OLD system of industry.

For that we need a culture that abhors greed, not one that celebrates, respects and elects it

When nearly everything was on Netflix for less than $10 a month and you could share it. So for a year or two.
