Disney is gouging customers with a near doubling of subscription costs. (sh.itjust.works)

Disney is raking its customers over the coals with a 75% price hike for their annual subscription (originally $80.) People wonder why piracy is on the rise.Multiple commenters are saying I’m off base about the 75% price increase. My payment less than a year ago was $79.99. Here’s the proof.

echodot,

They’ve also said they’re not going to do physical DVD releases anymore.

echodot,

I never cared that my parents knew where he was because I was never trying to do anything particularly nefarious and my parents weren’t completely buttheads.

But this was pre mobile phone days (my first phone was a Nokia Ngage), so if I went out they wouldn’t be able to contact me in an emergency so it made sense to say oh I’m going to x house here is ther phone number. Now that mobile phones exist maybe that requirement no longer exists.

echodot,

I find it hard to believe the police turned up.

“Hello police, there is a kid mowing gardens.” Isn’t exactly a priority response call.

echodot,

You sure have to pick the right cop though.

echodot,

That’s just how legalese is written. It’s like variables in programming they tell you what the thing is and then they tell you what they’re going to call it for the rest of the document.

I guess it originally saved them hand writing “B&H Film, Video and Television Media Production LLC” every time. Of course these days you could just do a fine and a replace, so I’m not sure why they don’t, but it’s just become standard lawyer at this point.

echodot,

But you see covid was a conspiracy by the government to inject nanobots into you, while also been a virus produced by 5G towers. It’s all perfectly logical.

echodot,

People always complain that no one ever reads the article.

Well this guy read the article but didn’t engage his brain at any point in the process, which is almost worse.

New to plex.....sometimes it loses track of my TV show?

Finally got back into sailing the high seas and, first thing i did after getting plex set up was get parks and rec since ive missed it so bad after it left netflix. Its great so far but occasionally it loses track of what ive watched and picks up in the middle of like 9 episodes back?...

echodot,

You want it to work all of the time, well, frankly that’s just unreasonable

Unfortunately Plex is just kind of crap like that.

One time it decided that it only had episode 6 series 4 of bones, and none of the others even though they were sat right there in the file system, I could play them and everything from Windows. How did it manage that, no idea.

When it does stuff like that you just have to resync your library and eventually it’ll actually do it and start working again.

echodot,

Captain: Transfer power to the engines

Engineer: Sorry sir, but you have to submit a ticket. The SLA is 2 days.
