Right? For a while there, it was actually easier to buy video than to steal it. Now torrenting is looking tempting again.

I was going to make a half-serious comment about how great it is/was to have the ad-hoc interoperability of command line programs that each just do one thing well, and why can’t we modernize that sort of thing, but your “unplug” bullet point was better, so here’s a vaguely relevant XKCD comic:

Anyone living better than me is rich, anyone less is poor.

Typical dishonest journalism.

I guess entitlement comes into it, but Netflix is definitely coming to the tipping point for me. I bought Netflix because I enjoyed the fresh, fairly new variety. It’s starting to become stale and less attractive.

Some of Netflix’s original stuff is pretty good, but a lot of it seems like filler. I guess its’ hard to tell what will “take off” until you put it up there.

Sigh......I’ve come to hate these articles. It always seems what is leaving (if they actually leave) is better than what is being gained. It doesn’t even matter that I didn’t know it was there to begin with and wasn’t watching it currently anyway.

People call it a Muslim ban because they are uneducated and don’t care enough to learn more, they’d rather just bitch and moan on social media.

The list of countries used is the same list that was put together under the previous administration. Trump just added onto the already increased security measures.

I don’t support the ban, but please don’t call it a Muslim Ban. It is not a ban on muslims

I’m not sure how to feel, yet, but one discomfiting thought that keeps coming back is how it feels kind of similar to how right leaning outlets would bring up pizzagate with a sorta “we just don’t know!” hands in the air routine.

Must be the Ruskies...look at those commie celsius references.

Compound Trump’s terrifying shortcomings with Obama’s strengthening of the Executive and a Republican-controlled Congress, and you have a recipe for unchecked executive overreach.

I guess it sounds better than, “If so-and-so wins, I’m going to.....be really mad for a bit and then resume my normal life.”

Totally agree. I think Liberals need to take a long look in the mirror and think about one thing, arrogance. They have been so cocky and arrogant about this election cycle or the last two or three. It jumped up and bit them in the ass in a huge way last night.

That’s exactly how I imagine them ‘working’ in my mind. You’d think in a world of self driving automobiles, we’d have nailed the sensorwork needed to keep a roomba from getting wedged into something.

An increase in participation in other contact sports with less head trauma like lacrosse and rugby or non-contact sports, generally.

There's a glimmer of hope! It's called last gen games... I don't get why this is an issue, it happens with every new iteration of consoles. There's plenty of great last gen games out there, The new consoles' libraries are small so there's plenty of waiting to do before something compels one to jump ship.
