Lol ok just ask every parent who already can't manage their children's online habits to set up a pihole. I'm sure they won't have any issues with that.
Is this like when the local library hounds me for late return fees? It feels financially comparable when you slap such a small amount on it .
And all our electricity bills went up for this.
Used to be that disk jockeys also got to pick what they played to an extent. Now it's all just predetermined lists nationwide brought to you by iHeartRadio. But yeah. Crazy to think how quickly things changed.
Used to be we would share mixtapes.. I really miss that. It was an intimate social interaction that we've entirely lost with modern streaming.
I miss the days of people having their own bespoke collection of their favorite movies and shows. Everything is homogenized now. At least when I pirate, I'm still building my own personal media library. And I never have to worry about the show I like being removed later.
But I'm not gonna lie. The quality drop off in content caused by streaming services I think is a bigger issue
Netflix activity tries to make content that's not actually good enough to watch without browsing a phone. Second screen content, they call it. And I guarantee someone in a finance role realized they could make way more by doing just enough to keep people, rather than try to actively create amazing content, because it's soo much cheaper to not pay for good writers, or good set designers or actors when you could just find someone who's good enough. I think it's because the money people spend is recurring, linked to the service as a whole, and not linked to the individual work.. users have to vote by watching now, and some of the best stuff I've ever seen is also some of the least watched.
Is this one of those Russian/Chinese/Nigerian astroturfing accounts?
Lol I love that you think we'll actually get beyond carbon neutral at some point. You're far more optimistic than me.
I wish it worked that way, but they can still vote and elect all the pedophiles, insurrectionists, rapists, and felons they want.
Walmart can get fucked.
Pretty sure Google does too.
