eviction is a necessary legal remedy to keep rental housing affordable and available for responsible people.

There's more people then houses in the US, so not really. The necessary remedy is making sure everyone only has one.

All of the workers rights you enjoy today were won by unions. That's reality.

Strawman isn't reality.

You're right. In reality, swat busted into someone's house for no reason, not even a bag of weed.

No, they don't. They uphold a bad system. Fuck cops.

I don't think the current capitalist class would allow for such a representative, without large changes to their power.

as opposed to working to form new arguments.

Atheism is the rejection of thiest's arguments. You'll have to get the ball rolling over there before we can do anything.

Would you say this about anyone else? Dogs? Cats? Anything at all?

What an odd comparison, given that pets are crated and put in (a warm/pressurized part of) the cargo bay. Is that better then hiding under a seat or the overhead bin? It seems about the same to me.

Why would the user be able to sue? Unless they thought their work was being infringed (in which case why they wouldn't send a dmca?) I don't see what possible standing they'd have.

And 7 years after the fact, how is your one time $40 purchase still paying to keep the servers running?

The company as a whole is profitable, and have been for at least the last few years. I'm on mobile so I'm not able to read their annual investor reports, but do they actually mention overwatch being a loss for the company on a premium model, or are you assuming that?

That's the power of buying in bulk my friend.

I switched a while back, I think so. Some premium features of plex are available free (like downloading media). It's also less bloated. Personally I hated plex trying to shove it's live tv packages or whatever at me. But honestly, if you're happy with plex, I'd stick with it. They're pretty similar.
