  Ive been around for a lot longer than them offering to let you pay for better service. Adblocking for quite a while was literally a malware concern

  Then I paid a bit extra with my phone service to get the premium, which at the cost it was felt like proper value. Then Google took that perk away while charging me the same amount, demanding their price hiked Premium cost to keep using their service, or I could go back to ad blocking

  Google did this to themselves, homie

  Mods for one game vs basically every game

  I could probably host the entirety of the mods on that site on my homelab, Nexus is exponentially larger and more complex

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Plex has paywalled my server!⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  dark pattern

  Nope, not at all. Its extremely forward, your local IP is listed first every time IME, and your lower-down comment has it backwards as it's your local IP that had "secure" written on it

  it's not a dark pattern at all, people are just stupid and don't read (including me, I fucked this up too at first)

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Plex has paywalled my server!⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Someone else already said it and you've already sepaped but I'll say it in detail:

  when setting the server connection up you selected "ServerName (long string of numbers)" and not "ServerName (your IP - SECURE)"

  this routes your connection through the Plex servers and makes it not a local connection anymore. this is extremely easy to do and forget you've done because it barely impacts performance

  I use it to explain my massive capacity for alcohol

  "I'm scotch/Irish on one side and German on the other, 3 generations both sides and they bred in the community until my parents!" as I'm on my third boot and finally starting to slur my speech lol

  The term you're looking for is "cultural history" then, and not "culture"

  I chose the impossible. I chose... suddenly the camera reveals the landscape of butts from the Baby Got Back music video Massture!

  you're the bigger idiot if you think non-violence works against fascists, and you'll achieve even less (unless you count the deaths of innocents that are on your hands, coward)

  lol of course this garbage bootlicker propaganda is left up on .world, a classic example of their quality modding skills

  glad to see the comments calling it out for what it is
