Have you not heard of a router? Sure i have an internet connection but i wouldnt have to. Lots of people have subnetworks that are isolated from outside network access, and my router would still be able to stream from my computer to my laptop even if my internet was down or i unplugged the modem. The last time they did scheduled maintenance on my internet thats exactly what i did, i streamed things that i had previously downloaded and saved on a different computer.

So if you had no soap available and shit on your arm, what would you use? Only paper? Or water? Your argument is fucking stupid. Of course people have different standards of cleanliness but the guy who doesnt clean his ass at all also has a different standard of cleanliness, and his standard is fucking disgusting.

If youre only streaming it within your home network that could still be very much offline...

Have you never had a friend group? Like that's a dead-ass simple 'study' of a gift economy. Sometimes someone pays for lunch, sometimes someone pays for beer, sometimes someone brings weed or bakes cookies or sings a song. Everyone helps everyone else out. Each according to their need, based on their ability. Or is that not something you're familiar with, because if not, you need better friends.

Don't end a sentence with a contraction is a pretty good rule, except when it isn't.

You won't find any sense behind it except data harvesting. They want all your info in one place, that's the end of the story.

Just buy an air mouse for $20 and you don't have to get up to change episodes. Doesn't help with having to unplug it from the hdmi all the time but that's less of a hassle if you can just do it once when you start watching and then control everything from the couch.

I hate that games started designing around microtransactions. Like who thought "hey let's take the worst parts of MMOs and put them into single player". I loved AC origins and was so looking forward to odyssey and then I just bounced off it within a few hours because so much of it just felt like doing chores.

Make mac and cheese with your leftover hot dog water if the desert you're in only has macaroni and hot dogs instead of eggs and potatoes.

Or they just made an announcement in 2021 about their existing content management tools and how much they've spent on them over the years. That's how I read it anyway.
