I have watched it off and on since it first aired and I can’t remember ever seeing Trump. In fairness I haven’t watched much the last couple years.

Mr. Garrison isn’t Trump, no matter how much they nod and wink.

Obama wasn’t portrayed by another character and neither was Bush and neither was Clinton.

Did they ever actually show Trump? Or was it bs Garrison as Trump?

Looked out of curiosity and seems the answer is no. Also, they literally said they were scared to make fun of him.

They’re such wusses.

During W’s reign they used kid gloves. Always been like that with conservatives.

Why is something as vital if not more vital than US Mail left to scummy private companies?

We’re well into the 21st century. Many businesses will direct you to their website when you call in.

Having affordable internet access is not a luxury it’s a necessity.

It’s petty third world mindset to allow these rent seekers to continue to profit off of awful service. Especially when they actively seek to block municipalities from setting up their own ISPs.

Western brands in general are losing market share in China.

All these companies that outsourced in the 90s and 00s are having their chickens come home to roost.

Thanks!

Fantastic read! Really nailed how I feel about it as well.

What kind of bug?

You know what reduces copyright infringement? Making content available, affordable and accessible.

In the golden days of Netflix, I hardly torrented anything.

There’s also a “I’m not going to get some bullshit masquerading as the movie I was looking for.” thing in place.

I belong to a couple private trackers. I use them nearly exclusively and have never once downloaded a bullshit file/virus/whatever. It’s happened a couple times on public ones.

I know who the good uploaders are and know that seeding on the private isn’t going to get me flagged to my ISP, which happened twice before going off public.

I guess what I’m wondering is: why wouldn’t you use one if you can find what you’re looking for?

Love this story.

Some real axis of evil shit going down. Anyone who questions if they’re the baddies at this point is intentionally being obtuse.

Yeah, that part is super fucked up. I have IoT in my ceiling fans. I had to call their support line to have them remotely turn off the beeping that accompanies a button press.

The feature can’t be deactivated locally. I literally had to have my ceiling fan join my Wi-Fi network so that support could remote in and disable a beep that no one could possibly want.

Oh yeah, my oven has Wi-Fi. What possible reason could there be for my oven to have network access? It’s beyond ridiculous.

And then there’s the subscription model. Where you don’t own or even license software. You just continually pay rent.

My whole family is lactose intolerant or milk allergic. My son is too.

Having to navigate a no dairy diet at daycare or school is difficult.
