Eh, don't need YouTube that badly. I think we'll collectively figure out video distribution without em just fine.

Worked for a dog and cat boarding facility many moons ago. Of all my interactions with various breeds from private owners to our almost constant stream of rescued pitbulls - we were temporarily hosting/caring for. Only one breed almost took off my finger.

I needed stitches, the lead vet had to flood the wound with iodine and antibiotics.

Another user, in a similar thread, shared this speech on enshittification. Addresses a good bit of what you are talking about and why mass action is hard in the current legal framework. We need better laws.

God I loved that console. The weird ass memory card with the built in screen was just cool.

Why I enjoyed all Resident Evil films and Doom. Bad, but I don't care. It was fun for some reason and that's good enough for me.

Good movie though. I enjoyed it quite a bit since feminism doesn't scare me. Grow up people.

With that said, fuck those prices, and fuck fake ownership.

True. I've certainly scoped out blu ray players of a particular vintage for those reasons. Just crazy we have to reach back in time to attempt to get around a trap that the vast majority of consumers don't see.

Just passively take it from you. Not saying physical is pointless at all, but physical discs and their players haven't stood still technologically either. If anything, streaming and discs converged.

Simply considering the fragile nature of a disc and the parade of new formats puts a clock on your time with it.

I could very well be mistaken and please correct me if I am. I remember reading that canning a show before season 3 or so was a way of getting around union costs that kick in for a 'longer' running show. A very anti labor strategy designed to cash in quickly then drop it so Netflix wouldn't have to share the wealth.
