“A streaming service only has the second season of a show”
The “rival” streaming service that has the first season of the show is owned by the same corporation so it can double-dip viewers on subscription fees.
The best time to hit someone in a fight is right when they’re taking their shirt off. They can’t see and their arms are stuck in their sleeves. If they’re going to make it easy for you, take advantage of it.
Giving you contradictory orders is standard operating procedure whenever cops need an excuse to abuse or kill you:
Cop1: “Get on the ground!”
Cop2: “Don’t move!”
Cop1: “I SAID GET ON THE GROUND!”
Cop2: “I SAID DON’T F*CKING MOVE!”
But hey, you were being “uncooperative” and that’s what the record will show, even though it’s literally impossible to follow both orders at the same time.
Back before web browsers had ad-blocking extensions, we had programs like Web Washer. It was a local, ad-blocking proxy program that you ran along side your browser. To use it, you just changed your browser’s network settings to point to Web Washer. And the ads would be filtered before they even reached your browser. It would be no problem to implement this again.
The Internet sucked before ad blockers. In the 1990s, web sites would spawn several ad windows. Sometimes, they would spawn pop-UNDER windows as well, so when you closed your browser, you had a nice big porn window left on your desktop. Advertisers abused the hell out of visitors and if you complained about it, their response was basically, “HA HA! F*CK YOU! HERE’S ANOTHER AD!”
They could have played nice. But once they had a chance to make free money, greed and sh*tty behavior ruled the day. This is how programs like Web Washer were born.
Culture war issues will never go away until people figure out where the real source of their pain comes from. It comes from the 1 percenters. It’s a class war. It always has been.
It’s a class war. It always has been. The 1 percenters use their control of the media to keep the poor and middle classes fighting with each other, so that they . . . the rich, can run off with all the f*cking money.
I already tried an Amazon Fire tablet, Amazon. No thanks. I returned it. I don’t need a locked-down console that spies on me. Windows is well on its way to becoming that already.
