Also because so many young Canadian men died in that war, so it’s hard to say “we didn’t” and it actually be true.

Self-hosted is unfortunately the way to go.

So which part is unhealthy behaviour exactly? Calling them multiple times, or expecting that if you called them constantly they would report you for harassment?

Literally all you have done is throw around accusations, there’s zero chance you are speaking to me in good faith. All you have done is insult me and misrepresent what I am saying.

If you called an MP every single day, and they keep hanging up on you, do you really think there’s zero chance you would get reported for harassment?

The only person who said my week was bad is you, I actually had a great week, not that it’s any of your business? You’re literally just a stranger online, you’re trying to psychoanalyze me, and you’re failing at it.

Maybe you should be the one seeking help instead? It certainly seems like people don’t agree with you and they do seem to agree with me.

I’ve wasted enough time talking with you, I’m blocking you now.

Ah, that’s all you took away from all I said. Very cool, I can see you’re clearly conversing in good faith.

Is it okay to assume a bad outcome after it has happened? What about while it’s happening?

Please psychoanalyze me using only a couple sentences, that will definitely help.

The truth is, we obviously don’t know for sure what will happen, but it’s also not likely to be surprising if it doesn’t go our way. It’s the most likely outcome and pretending otherwise is disingenuous. That doesn’t mean we shouldn’t fight, though.

I’m certainly not surprised anymore with all the shit I’ve seen over the years and how the enshitification seems to be unavoidable these days. People, companies, etc are not held accountable and it shows. It’d be nearly impossible to not become jaded after enough things go wrong.

Phone their office, demand to know why you haven’t heard back from them. Make them search through their emails and pull up every message you ever sent. Make them uncomfortable. Be a problem.

The part of me that is pessimistic (that part seems to be growing these days…) thinks they would just hang up on you and if you call them back enough times they’ll call the police on you to report you for harassment.

Not to discourage people, but it’s just frustrating.

In that case, it will work the same way as a normal ISP. You’ll probably get a warning with something like a 3 strike policy. In such a case, the VPN will cut your VPN service on the third strike.

It also depends on where you live. In my country, copyright infringement is just a small fine, and you can get dozens of those copyright letters from your ISP and be fine.

The worst part is when I leave comments and still wonder wtf I was thinking.

Yeah, exactly, that’s exactly how it happens. It’s so fucking dumb.

This is what happens when companies become too comfortable.

That’s fair, I did use the wrong word there.

That’s pretty much where I’m at too.

Both Jellyfin and Plex are pretty great currently, I prefer Plex slightly, but if Plex becomes worse then I’ll likely make the switch over to Jellyfin. I’ve liked Jellyfin for years but Plex has still been my main app.

I have both of them installed anyway.

Plex is less confusing to use if you want to share your library, but thankfully I don’t have any concerns about that because I’m selfish with my media and just have it set up for my own personal use.

Wouldn’t arcade games like Need for Speed be unrealistic and different enough to not feel stressed out, or same problem?

Four, but I’m a spaces fella.

I mean, you’re not gonna find me defending that country or the orange man.

However, I will say that unfortunately both their data collection and the resulting site blocks are both very effective for what they want to achieve, as much as I hate that.

Honestly, you’re not wrong.

Try and find a country not doing this or something almost the same, I’ll wait.

Literally every country is trying to pull this shit in 2026.

I mean, look at some US states for an example of this.

If they could read they’d be very upset.

So much for the liberals not banning porn like the conservatives wanted to lmao

Ive worked with ecommerce enough to not store my card anywhere.

Not storing it is not necessarily enough to protect you either, though. If their servers get compromised, it’s very easy for them to send that data elsewhere instead of/in addition to working normally.
