Yes I’m aware someone would criticize that move. The ship has sailed on ethical consumption under capitalism, brother/sister. Tired, hungry, and now angry and annoyed, I wasn’t trying to figure out which evil company would benefit least from my $25.

I recently got off a long international flight and decided I was tired and hungry enough to eat at a Taco Bell for the first time in years. I pulled up and was faced with an AI speaker instead of the system I’ve lived my entire life using at all fast food drive throughs. I loudly said “Im not talking to fucking AI” and promptly drove to the chick fil a right next door and talked to a human face to face to order.

I rarely eat fast food so I’ve since learned they usually have someone monitoring the system to fix its mistakes. I also assume they record it all so I should have let them know they’ve lost a customer for life. Granted I didn’t go enough to really matter anyway, but that will be the last time and I’ll make sure I let the next chain know if this happens again.

I’d rather have a touch screen in the drive thru and all the problems that come with that than have a fucking toaster talk to me and be the gatekeeper of my food order.

you rarely hear anything about what the money *should* be spent on.

You must not be listening cuz plenty of people talk about spending it on bombing more foreign children for the good of the military industrial complex.

Thanks Obama

TIL, thanks

I was with you until mountains.

Costing more to do less was kind of written on the wall of capitalism’s halls the whole time, so are we really surprised?

If/when the day finally comes I’m assuming there will be resources of the options available, perhaps even a megathread here. Or I’ll just look into what’s out there myself. But I think it’s fair for the fediverse to be championing the biggest FOSS front runner. I do appreciate you putting another option on my radar.

Because I’m simply not aware of it or all the other options since, as I mentioned, I have no imperative to leave plex at the moment.

That’s where I’m at. Ride my <$80 lifetime license till the wheels fall off and see where jellyfin is at that point.
