Tried to support the industry by buying a movie a watch a lot. Well, no more. If I need a pihole just to watch a movie I own, that’s ridiculous.

    Which is why I am incredulous at the idea that a Blu-ray player needs to connect to the internet

    Is it really that hard to imagine a future where DRM encroaches further and further on us? Your fuckin blue ray player might not connect to the internet but it is still region locked.

      I really don’t think you’re picking up what I’m putting down here. No, it’s not that difficult to imagine, because it’s happening. I am saying it’s bullshit and I’m annoyed about it.

          Ahh a hexbear user now I see. Thanks for the heads up lol

          God I wish you could block all users from an instance. Them and grad are like 40% of the hostility I experience

              Unfortunately I also meet some seriously aggressive people on dbzer0 too but not nearly to the extent of hexbear and grad. World is a bit worse than dbzer0 but not as bad as bear/grad.
