If they’re saying “own” on their advertisements then they should be required to refund you when they eventually have to take it away. I’m pretty sure “ownership” has a legal definition and it’s probably not too ambiguous.
It should at least be considered false advertising if they can’t guarantee access permanently.
Wait, they’re not letting you stream because of your OS? That’s bullshit, I’d pirate it on principal at that point. No sense in waisting time trying to get your browser to report a different OS to work around it.
Canned soup is cooked in the can in most cases so anything that may have evaporated away changing the taste is still sealed in the can. Also, when mass producing anything most companies will choose cheaper ingredients over higher quality ingredients.
So you’re left with a soup with low grade ingredients that’s still in the pot it was cooked in and never stirred, it’ll keep you alive but it didn’t have the same amount of effort put into it as someone cooking their own.
Snack cakes. Do you want to know why America has an obesity epidemic?
Because a whole box of Swiss cake rolls is $2.50 at Walmart and a deli salad is $5.00.
It’s the Discworld series by Terry Pratchett with original narrators (Stephen Briggs and Nigel Planer).
Audible has been replacing them with new narrators, and they switch narrators several times every few chapters in each book. There’s still some of the originals around on audible but they’re slowly replacing them one at a time. It was difficult to find a complete collection and all in good quality from torrent sites before.
I’ve ripped them directly from the CDs so it’s (mostly) great quality with the exception of a few that were converted from older tapes. And all the extras like the science of discworld books and a collection of short stories by Pratchett too.
Relentless advertising the week before the election. Any sooner than that and you’re wasting money. The electorate has the collective memory of a goldfish so wait until the few days, and especially the weekend, before the election and dump it all into an overwhelming advertising campaign. Every other commercial that comes on TV should be one of your attack ads listing everything horrible the candidate you oppose has ever done wrong.
Buying politicians won’t work, that kind of money will either buy one for a few years or many for a few months. But $500m is less than a million dollars a year for just the house of representatives and when that money dries up their normal donors will be there with big fat checks ready to change policies back to the way they were before.
In order to enact real change you’ll need to actually replace the people in power. And even then the major sticking point is making sure that the candidates you endorse actually make the changes that would limit future corruption.
Support content seems to be most of what’s posted here now. It’s mind boggling really. A huge number of us are Reddit refugees and AskReddit was always about community engagement and not about support. I really don’t know what makes people think this is any different.
Necessity, if you don’t need it to survive but it makes your feel good it’s a luxury, and those things change with time. Today a home Internet connection is nessicary to make it in the world, but 20 years ago it was a luxury and 30 years ago it was a novelty.
They’re not all Lauren Boebert, but there’s a lot more money than half a billion being thrown around in politics. If half a billion were enough to just buy all the politicians Musk would have done it a long time ago, that’s about 1/400th of his net worth when he keeps his mouth shut.
Unsubscribe from the community. I did it this morning myself. It’s out of control and I had to scroll 2-3 pages before I found literally any content that wasn’t just a shitpost circlejerk meme.
