Run a personal VPN server at the home address and have external users route through it. I’d think it’d work for any subscription service doing this crap. I’m surprised nobody has started selling a turnkey self-hosted VPN device that even a non-techie can get running in a few steps - all the end users would need is an app that does split tunneling for the media players.

Yeah, but an agreement has to be signed that they aren’t responsible for what carrying around all that weight up front does to your body.

Not into it, but no strong hate for it, either. Does it remind you of someone or something you’d rather forget, or something?

- Comment on Whats a good Resource on Learning 6502 Assembly, for someone who has little to no experience Programming? 1 week ago:
The Internet Archive has tons of old scanned books on the subject. Computers were new to a LOT of people at the time most of these were published, so they usually assume minimal knowledge.

If your life is effectively over at 22, then you never had a life to begin with.
There’s a line in Pink Floyd’s song “Time” that says:
And then one day you find ten years have got behind you No one told you when to run, you missed the starting gun
For me, the moment described above didn’t happen until I was well into my 40s. You wanna talk about a wasted life?!?

- Comment on [meta] should this comm be used more like a blind spot feed? 2 weeks ago:
I like the idea, but the community name should fit the purpose to minimize confusion and needless arguments from those in the cult. Maybe something like “RebuttingConservativeNews”, “ConservativeNewsReview”, or “DecrapifyingConservativeNews”.

Seriously? With the amount of stupidity dominating our lives from so many directions, you’re gonna date one of them to get even closer to it all? You must be a masochist.

- Comment on Inflation outpaces wage growth for over 40% of Americans 5 weeks ago:
It has been shown time and again that administrations under Republican are worse for the economy than when under Democrats. I saw something recently that went back at least three or four decades showing this pattern, but haven’t the time or ability right now to search it up. I’m sure it can be found easily enough.
- Comment on Inflation outpaces wage growth for over 40% of Americans 5 weeks ago:
Never claimed it was. There are innumerable self-destructive stupidities that the human race regularly prefers to engage in because it gives them an advantage in the short term, which is all most of them bother thinking about. That being the case, we’re all forced to play the game their way: constantly look for opportunities to take advantage of for oneself, and fuck their demands of loyalty and self-sacrifice for the good of the company - they wouldn’t do the same for you.
- Comment on India bans streaming apps you’ve never heard of — but millions watch 5 weeks ago:
I’m aware, and that fact only lends credence to what I said to another responder in that humans are the same everywhere you go - it’s only the specific variances that are mostly due to culture that differ. Also keep in mind that in America the Republicans have been working to take over the country since the 1970s - more recent events are just the inevitable result of the dam finally bursting. I wouldn’t be surprised to learn there were similar forces at work in India.
