Today I’m donating my streaming sticks. I got a ONN brand 2k one I bought for 15 and I got an Amazon Firestick 4K I got for $3 from a thrift store because they didn’t know what it was.
And I love the concept of stream sticks, I really do. Too fucking bad that corporate interests got in the way and now everything has to have a bundle of ads at every damn turn. Not even some of the things I’m subscribed to is free from ads because this is the future apparently, we’re here.
Shame because I don’t want to let these go and even if I were to subscribe to Netflix’s ad-free subscription, that’s only one source. Why do that when I can just grab a long HDMI cable, plug it into my desktop and to my TV and I can watch everything that’s there, without ads because of the extensions I use to block ads.
I think my brain heightened in response because it’s telling me “this asshole I’m replying to is an ignorant moron, so I’ll block them and I think anyone should too”.
Why do people feel the need to publicly announce blocks? Just do it and move on. No one cares. Block me! Don’t forget to tell everyone you did it!
You think I’m an asshole who should be blocked because I admitted to having a brain fart?
