Hermit here, can confirm.

Use free streaming sites.

Anything that you want to ‘collect’ can be downloaded and stored on an external hard drive and taken with you where you need to go.

Don’t overcomplicate things just to fit in with losers on the internet.

You kniw what you’re doing

Exactly. They know what they’re doing and we shouldn’t pretend that they don’t.

Scumbags are all around us, hiding in plain sight.

You can tell people whatever you want and they can criticize you accordingly.

If you don’t disclose your affiliation with a company that you’re shilling, rational people will criticize you for being biased and self-serving.

If you want to avoid this completely rational, acceptable, and expected criticism, then you should reveal any conflicts of interest before or during your promotion of the business.

This shouldn’t need to be spelled out for you, but this generation has been conditioned to be proud of ignorance and defending abuse.

Plex has always been shilled hard for useful idiots with more money than sense.

Like, free streaming services are right there. Why overcomplicate things just so you can fit in with other losers on the internet?

I swear, so many of you are leaning on each other without realizing none of you have a clue what’s going on.

I never subscribed to netflix because I’m not an idiot and just used free streaming sites for over a decade.

My peers would tell me that there are different pricing models and you can pay more to get rid of ads.

It’s all fucked by design, but this generation is too stupid to realize it or do anything about it.

Great point.

You gotta remember, this generation of idiots actually enjoys watching ads. Every year they gather around to watch the most egregiously expensive ads and debate which one is the ‘best’ while children starve.

Always sad watching people complain about ads on free streaming sites which can be easily blocked with an adblocker while defending their subscription to netflix.

It really puts into perspective how ‘intelligent’ the average consumer is and how seriously their input should be taken, though.

Everyone. This is what being above average really looks like.

Use your brains before your wallets. Most people immediately jump to the ‘money option’ because thinking is legitimately too difficult for them.

Don’t be a useful idiot, even if it’s what’s popular.

There are plenty of options.

You don’t even have to stop watching videos. There are free streaming sites such as https://hydrahd.sh/ that have greater selections than netflix at no cost.

I shouldn’t have to say this, but make sure you have an adblocker. For some reason, laymen get mad about the ads on streaming sites while pretending ads don’t exist anywhere else.

The older I get, the more I realize useful idiots aren’t the exception; they’re the rule.

Took you long enough.

Did you know there are free streaming sites with greater selection and don’t require you to make an account, let alone enter your credit card info and send them money?

All of them.

Look at you having standards.

Try using Startpage.

Kind of?

Google is definitely eager to be as shitty as apple, but android users still have a way easier time avoiding corporate abuse than apple users.

It’s definitely exhausting.

The silver-lining is that we really don’t have to go along with it. We have the choice to use alternatives, we just choose not to.

What parts of Rose’s dialogue made her laugh so much?

I could tell that it was commentary on the lonely and reserved lives that was stereotypical of gamers in the early to mid 2000s. So much of that game was meant to be directed towards the player, I wonder if it fell on deaf ears for her because she’s not really the target audience.

Irony at its finest.

I have no interest in looking good my friend.

If you say so.

I’m just as flawed as the rest of us.

Trying to look good in front of your peers doesn’t mean pretending you’re perfect.
