- Comment on [Louis Rossmann] Piracy is COMPLETELY justified: Louis tries NetFlix and remembers why 1 year ago:
And you’re at it again!
I said what I said, and theirs is nothing vague about how you got to make choices in what you can and can’t have.
You’re the one starting to make vague statements about “submitting to their demands”, and comparing the poor to the CEO (which is totally beside any points…)
It’s quite simple: there are a billion ways to entertain yourself, some are cheaper and some are more expensive, some are worth your money and some aren’t.
These companies don’t “demand” anything. They’re offering a service for a price. If you’re unhappy about that, move on?
If you were talking about something with very few players, or in essential services, it would be a different discussion. Here we are talking about entertainment, so Netflix is in the same market as Wizards of the Coast, CD Projekt Red, Penguin Publishing, and a few hundred thousand others.

You sure like to argue against arguments I didn’t make.

Or you could act like a grown up and accept not having everything always?
If you’re on a budget, what’s wrong with subscribing for a month or two to a service, then switching to another for a few months, etc.?
- Comment on No More Will to Play 1 year ago:
Yeah! How dare they enjoyed their time with the game!
- Comment on BMW, Subaru and Porsche drivers ‘more likely to cause a crash’, study finds 1 year ago:
“People with a lot of money generally are more sellfish than other people and think others should yield because their own self is more important.”
- Comment on [deleted] 1 year ago:
What a dumb request.
- Comment on Welcome To Aftermath - Worker-owned video game journalism 1 year ago:
Can confirm. I’ve seen a small studio abuse one of the sole dev that wasn’t an owner and ducking him so hard…
- Comment on [deleted] 1 year ago:
I’m glad it went away sir!
Also, I would never laugh at you getting that, especially since welding is something quite useful for society, inline NFTs 😛
- Comment on Why did Lemmy change from post/comment score to count? 1 year ago:
Or you could just check what that person just said now and there and judge them based on that?
Like right now I’m judging you about being shallow that’s easily influenced by group mentality and that is craving for social validation.
You might be the most chilled person, or have the best value system in the world. Our more or less unique and single interactions will have been this post, so why should I care about the others?
- Comment on Bots copy pasting Reddit - is there a method to block them all? 1 year ago:
And if one human cares, chances are others could too.
- Comment on X CEO Linda Yaccarino stepped in to remove a pro-Hitler post 1 year ago:
A former CEO.
- Comment on "Do Not Track" is a legally binding order, German Court tells LinkedIn 1 year ago:
So every single page you navigate to, you want to have to decline?
Without cookies, you can’t persist not wanting cookies.
- Comment on GameStop’s definition of “New” 1 year ago:
First of all, how are you?
- Comment on GameStop’s definition of “New” 1 year ago:
Do they still sell games? I would have sworn it was a Funko Pop dedicated shop.
- Comment on A software company called Threads says Meta tried to buy its domain and kicked it off Facebook 1 year ago:
And they can see that you don’t give enough shit about them to use Messenger.
Two way street.
- Comment on [deleted] 1 year ago:
I wouldn’t go that broad no. There is just a ton of propaganda in America about how Israel is good, and a lot of whitegloving around anything Jewish because of the power some hold in society, especially in the media.
- Comment on Threads third-party app support could become a reality 1 year ago:
Oh well…
Anyways.
- Comment on [deleted] 1 year ago:
I’ve been saying I hate what Israel does (and to some extent Israel itself since it’s it’s sole purpose it seems) for a long time but saying that made me antisemitic. (Even though my disdain has nothing to do with them practicing any kind of religion, but is because of their actions.)
Now it’s more acceptable.
- Comment on i wanna have fun programming again 1 year ago:
I’d suggest you go back to the roots, and find a language that allows for the usage of uppercase letters.
- Comment on Elon Musk gives X employees one year to replace your bank - ‘You won’t need a bank account... it would blow my mind if we don’t have that rolled out by the end of next year.’ 1 year ago:
He bought twitter to follow the same path WeChat did.
- Comment on Elon Musk gives X employees one year to replace your bank - ‘You won’t need a bank account... it would blow my mind if we don’t have that rolled out by the end of next year.’ 1 year ago:
He actually wants to do what WeChat, and a few other mega applications like that do. It works in the east, but we mostly don’t want that in the west afaict.
- Comment on Even the Tesla Cybertruck's Brake Lights Don't Make Sense 1 year ago:
It just makes that vehicle illegal to drive in Canada with its gate open. Or maybe even illegal to be sold here.
YES!
- Comment on Why advertise on YouTube? 1 year ago:
Are you more likely to buy Cascade dishwasher soap, or that other random box of a name you’ve never heard of, for the same price?
That’s what I thought.
- Comment on today I was reminded how bad YouTube ads are 1 year ago:
Or, you know, pay for what you use?
- Comment on today I was reminded how bad YouTube ads are 1 year ago:
Thanks for being one of us and that you’re paying for the service. If more people were ads blocking, it would be even worse for the others.
- Comment on [deleted] 1 year ago:
They’re just looking for trouble imo.
- Comment on NY bill would require a criminal history background check for the purchase of a 3D printer 1 year ago:
I’m fine with that, as long as they prevent ANYONE with a white collar crime from owning any assets, right?
That would be fair? - Comment on How do you call someone born in the US besides "American"? 1 year ago:
Oh, wow, it’s way more east than I thought. With all that meaning around about it, now I’ll remember!
- Comment on How do you call someone born in the US besides "American"? 1 year ago:
I don’t know where it is. I could look it up, but I would guess… Idaho would be middle almost all the way north and Delaware somewhere south-west of that. I don’t think Delaware was in the original 13 colonies and I don’t remember seeing any mentions of it between Quebec and Florida when I went when I was 9 😛
- Comment on How do you call someone born in the US besides "American"? 1 year ago:
The average non-Usaains knows way more states than the average Usaains knows of foreign states/provinces.
Not knowing about where Delaware is relatively to Idaho is not the same as not knowing that Sudan isn’t in South America.
