‘My whole library is wiped out’: what it means to own movies and TV in the age of streaming services (www.theguardian.com)

*What rights do you have to the digital movies, TV shows and music you buy online? That question was on the minds of Telstra TV Box Office customers this month after the company announced it would shut down the service in June. Customers were told that unless they moved over to another service, Fetch, they would no longer be...

beefbot,

I never DREAMED Amazon would take away my content I bought! Just because they erased the novel 1984 off of everyone’s Kindles a few years back doesn’t mean leopards would eat MY face.

beefbot,

I love this but anyone got a link to a site that isn’t paywalled or doesn’t force me to disable my ad blocker?

beefbot,

Idk. Definitions change. Like, literally

beefbot,

I doubt that*. Serifs just add pixels to the labor of recognition. Serif fonts can’t reduce as small as the sans serifs, making them bad for things like iPhones 🤷‍♂️

*maybe I’d believe a decent study if you’ve got a decent source (stat sig N, clear funding source, etc)

beefbot,

Serifs are by products of the technology used to write them (stone, ink, etc) & are merely the on and off ramps to get to the real meat of it, & they are zero more.

Might even go so far to say they’re a waste of pixels and therefore energy. Fight me 😜

Fun fact, in the Arabic alphabet it starts out Alif and Ba just like alpha and beta here, and then veers way away from this chart into its own awesomely weird territory (thought German was “guttural”? try this nonvowel nonconsonant so far back in the throat you need consent and a physician’s referral) but JUST when you think you’ve lost your way, RIGHT the alphabet nears its end, you stop and stare because right there are four letters, in this same exact order, so familiar it might be a song you learned as a child: the letters K L M N.

The Phoencians took this invention to other places too, and this cluster of familiarity crystallised in the Arabic alphabet in the same order. Almost like a gene we could point to that says we had a common ancestor centuries ago, we were once so close that we learned the same thing from the same people.

beefbot,

Even worse? Even most who knew Nirvana was a band forgot that Teen Spirit was an actual deodorant marketed towards teens

beefbot,

Nom nom. I love this sub, thank you for these

beefbot,

Didn’t know Battlestar Galactica (2004)’s Sam Anders (Starbuck’s pyramid-sports-ball beau) had another life in a different sci-fi universe as a slice of pizza (instead of just a slice) (he’s hot) (and the two actors look a LOT alike)

beefbot,

He wants to break up & he doesn’t want to say so.

beefbot,

Beat me, beat me / beat me sexy Jesus

beefbot,

No kidding. So sick of hearing about those people 😙

beefbot,

100% she means “anything that’s even remotely close to …THAT shudder

beefbot,

I don’t want to see heterosexuals but you don’t see me legislating against you, subtly erasing you, and actively hunting you. So no. You’re not excused, sweet cheeks.

beefbot,

Christians. They already have that shit all over their cult compounds I mean churches.

Realistically, I can see the NYT inventing images of Columbia students “murdering” Israeli children. Something juuuust plausible enough

beefbot,

You cry about cutting your finger? Lord Jezus cut his whole hand on that torture device they stare at all day 🤪🙄

beefbot,

Two things can be true! Everyone always needs to bathe in some cleansing nature, and also I’m not super wrong on my comment there sooo thanks for the free therapy 😜😘

beefbot,

Okay!

beefbot,

Incorrect. Nice try

beefbot,

Please link me to the truth or not of this so that I can hate her yet more — I love surpassing my own limits

beefbot,

I hate to be honest but JKR’s words turn into literal violence for trans people soooo congrats on how high your horse is
