Most people would rather pay a reasonable price for legal content than go through the trouble of fucking with piracy and firesticks with hacked firmware. Laziness trumps all.

Piracy is mostly because of lack of easy access, and is usually not because people just don’t want to pay for things (certainly there are people like that too).  Once streaming services got big piracy dropped way less people pirated.

I’m in the same boat as you, I’d prob switch to Spotify but I’m grandfathered into the 7.99 price which is hard to beat, plus getting Youtube Premium is pretty nice. Like most I’m annoyed with how Google kills apps and forces you to different ones, but I’ll give YTM a shot.

You can really push this AI and it will either absolutely amaze you or fail spectacularly (which is usually hilarious so it’s a win/win). My favorite story I’ve done so far:

Yeah, what week old car has “wear and tear”?? Maybe he was driving it like an asshole.

Even better, buy a pressure cooker. Cooks rice perfectly and does a ton of other shit too.

“ difficulty coming to terms with Roku on providing it right away”

Legos are crazy expensive, I’m surprised it’s not more.

I dunno how Wayfair handles 3rd party selling, but I know people who sell on Amazon and Ebay will crank up their prices to unreasonable levels if they’re out of stock on something. That way they can avoid the relisting fee when they get it back in.

Hardly worthless, considering the 4000 series is ending support for X470 boards 

Try reading the very first sentence of the article.

Cool...

Win/win

How has Christopher Lloyd looked old for almost 40 years? 

I’ve heard a lot of bullshit justifications. I know of places that don’t make anything of importance but because they have one tiny government contract they stay open.

Hell, most suppliers here I know never shut down to begin with.

I think their misstep was trying to have it all. If they wanted to bring the old gang back, it should have revolved around them. If they wanted a totally new story with new characters, then great do that. But they awkwardly tried and failed to please everyone all at once.

One small correction, mine used Master Card, not Visa. Unless they had different kinds.
