Fuck those shitheads.
Fuck those shitheads.
Roku is the worst thing to happen to television since motion smoothing.
Going to take a guess that Apple realized VR isn’t happening this generation, didn’t want the embarrassment of canceling it, so they released it at such a high price point that only a relatively few rubes would buy it, so when they abandon it there won’t be enough people to complain and make bad press out of it.
Could that level of investment ever be recouped in any other manner than by replacing vast numbers of workers and their salaries?
Imagine thinking you need to be more online, not less.
I’d ask to switch with you, except I know very well that anyone’s life can be much more complicated than it seems on the surface, and happiness does not automatically come from any of that. Therapy doesn’t help everyone be happier, but it’s something worth trying or trying again.
The world does suck right now. All the more reason to find something like a cat or some other thing that makes you happy to help ignore all the bullshit.
Your cat had a good life and loved you and then died. There doesn’t have to be a point, there’s more good than suffering.
Anyone can buy this data. It’s just a regular product. What would a warrant have to do with anything.

The sooner an AI article references Terminator the sooner you know not to take it seriously.
I have a bookmarklet that I use on youtube to send the url to a flask app I wrote that runs it through yt-dlp and saves it to my plex server.
The Saturday Night Live channel has over 6000 videos. I downloaded its metadata and loaded it into a database and wrote another simple web app to browse it quickly and choose the videos I want to download. I have a plex library for SNL alone with about 700 sketches. I should generalize this for other channels but it was mostly a one time thing with throwaway code.
Lately I’ve been trying to automate ersatztv channel setup but it doesn’t have an API so I’m writing to its sqlite database and hoping that will work.
Personally I prefer theaters so I think that price is high, yes. But rentals also used to be less convenient because the wait was longer and the TVs were lower quality.
I can understand not being interested in the movie or the price point or digital “ownership”, but why does it make them scammers to offer the purchase at a price that heavily amortizes down the cost per viewing?
The rental price is on par with two theater tickets and they’re not playing games with pretending like the purchase price should be double because you plan to watch it at least twice.
They can fuck off if they think I’m buying anything with Amazon spyware built into it.
