Yeah because the GOP has been sooooooo pro-union in all of the times they’ve ever taken office.

Who can forget the time in the 2000s, when they took away or thought about taking away Overtime.

Who can forget the times when corporations actively worked against their workers and the GOP with every opportunity they’ve had, were dead quiet for those workers while simultaneously endorsing the actions of those businesses.

Who can forget the time when the GOP shot down the 9/11 Health Bill, basically saying “FUCK YOU” to Firefighters and every emergency personnel involved with that?

We’ve lost some big ones this year alone, hadn’t we? I recall the early half of the year, that we lost some huge names or names that just shut down. Uloz flipped, still around but not what it once was. There was a lot of big names just gone all in this year alone.

But I see all of this as multi-pronged.

Aside from what everyone else has said. I will add that there could be people slipping into pirate ranks as a shill for these corps, gathering all that they can, slipping out to report.

There also could be loud-mouthed pirates, ruining it for everyone because they’re loud-mouths, gotta spread the shit all the way around. That gets the attention of the corps that just hover over and count the days at that point.

Yeah I mean, that will be really pulling the veil away from people’s eyes right?

So say that piracy is exterminated in a theoretical scenario, subscription prices now cost $20 - $25 per service just for standard. Tickets cost $19 per person. Rentals will cost $7. Copies still sold in retail stores and online hover $20 ~ $30.

Now, piracy is gone, we have all of these increased expenses. Who do they honestly expect are going to still want to be paying that much?

People will see all along that this is just simply an optional luxury to have, they can’t have it, they stop paying and take their money somewhere else.

And does anyone think the executives and MAFIAA will finally admit that they’ve been in the wrong all this time?

No, they’ll just suck eachother’s dicks while proclaiming that piracy still needed to go away.

Probably not even getting paid nearly as much except given a pizza under the door and a pat on the shoulder as some shitbag exec says sweet nothings into their ear. “Good job son, you’re doing the work for freedom, freedom from piracy”

I don’t torrent. I’ve got no patience for it and the climate to which to torrent in, isn’t nearly as rich as it once was in the 2000s. So it’s not worth my time.

Fuck…

I was planning to finish a series on AnimeSuge and AnimeSuge is now gone. I’m not going to fucking subscribe to Crunchyroll because, they don’t have anime classics like Tenchi Universe or Tenchi in Tokyo. AnimeSuge did. They had everything Tenchi in one place whereas you have to subscribe to both Funimation and Cruncyroll to even get a third of the series available.

And watching the original 1997 Berserk series straight through was on AnimeSuge. None of the legal options fucking have it and everyone is selling the series on EBay and Amazon for triple the price.

This is fucking bullshit!

This makes about as much sense as when Facebook tried prioritizing Oculus to be a way to browse the internet.

…There’s just no point in it.

But whatever I guess, some ideas have to be realized first before it reaches “well that was a dumb fuck of an idea” phase.

That only peaked in kindergarten.

These people, referring to the idiot author, are the same people who fantasized and watered down how the Civil War went for the Confederacy. We unfortunately now have and will continue to have, the same idiots having their revised takes on what happened on January 6th.

It’s because of shit like this, I’ve had a document containing all passwords and accounts stashed away.

I’m going to copy and paste, fuck anyone thinking I’m going to manually enter their shit.

Can vouch, it’s the same for all three of the Samsung phones I have.

There’s nothing wrong either with pumping the brakes of a subscription, which I’m seeing and hearing people do now including myself. I just need a good reason to subscribe to say like, Netflix, to get me to watch what I want to watch or catch up on then decide to unsubscribe.

I sincerely hope they don’t penalize people in the future for doing this, but I expect at somepoint that they will so mind as well enjoy that while we’re able.

Wow, talk about someone who didn’t really read the article.

It’s been stated that they made a department that specifically assesses homeless people and help get them to services that they need.

I might sound a little in the minority of this.

Everyone should sit down and ask themselves - ‘Do I Really Need This?’

I can only speak on my behalf. I have over, roughly estimating, 1,500 games both purchased and pirated. Do I really need a subscription such as GamePass right now when I have so much already? No, I really don’t.

I’ve pirated thousands of songs over the years, do I really need Spotify’s subscription? No, I do not and I’m glad that I don’t.

So on and so forth. I decide what I need or want based on the current lifestyle and quality of life in my current state. I do not need over 40 subscriptions sapping me every month and it’s only gotten easier because I combat FOMO, I evaluate what else is out there that serves as an alternative that isn’t subscription based.

These days when I look at people paying a subscription model for Microsoft Office, I shake my head and have that kind of chuckle that makes you feel sorry over someone doing that. Because really, I still use older versions of Microsoft Office and LibreOffice to handle whatever modern features that there is to handle. Not a lot has really changed to warrant subscribing to such a model.

A lot of subscription models can be pressy to people who aren’t knowledgeable unless they take advantage of what’s out there.

_Keeping an eye on Harris’ stance on the Israel-Hamas war in Gaza, Sanders made sure to bring that up, saying, “I think, in all fairness to the vice president, she’s been the candidate for all of one month. And it’s been a hell of a month. You have to organize the convention, select a vice presidential campaign, get out on the campaign trail. So, they are still working through their policies.”

At least we have a candidate actively working on their polices currently as they’re campaigning.

As opposed to listening to an aging, diaper-shitting, run-a-mouth opponent going on golfing tours and probably bitching about how deer piss would purify reservoirs or something he had a two second thought of before forgetting.

I feel this with Terraria. Yeah the updates are free and they try many ways to freshen the game up. But, I’m almost begging for the game to land itself in a comfortable level of finishing itself and just polish it off. It is a radically different game when I try it than when I first did back in 2015.

I can see why even Reddit wouldn’t want this posted over there.

So, okay, you’ve made up a scenario but it has nothing to do with the question you’re asking. Why couldn’t you have just asked the question and not beat around the bush before doing so?

Damn he’s not aging well, lol. All of that grump and tough-guy act, not to mention the stress where he’s been making the court his second home if not already a home.

We shouldn’t be complacent anyways. If anyone sleeps on this election and somehow Trump wins this, we should all route them out for letting it happen.
