right but like, they were only broken up into episodes for streaming in the first place, they can make their ad breaks as long as they want

so fucking lame

I get that for broadcast, but for streaming it doesn’t make any sense, it’s not like ad breaks on streaming used to be the same length as on cable. on top of that, I wasn’t getting ads when watching this on Hulu

watching Wild Green Yonder with a friend, me watching the movie on my Plex, them watching the version broken into episodes on Hulu.

i pulled Hulu up to make sure i stayed synced, and the Hulu version quickly pulled ahead of mine.

well, just noticed the Family Guy Star Wars episode 6 episode is 44 minutes on Hulu and 53 minutes on my Plex.

I also want to hear about the snitching.

I’d heard most famously Seinfeld was sped up by 7% in syndication to sell more advertising space. I do it to my own videos sometimes just to shorten them for today’s attention span

because few people in this society spend money on something that makes other people’s lives easier.

the reason you were able to download it is because other people were seeding it. that’s why seeding is helpful

gee I wonder how long it will be before I can download the custom patches to get around this

this is interesting and whatnot, but during WW2, US research indicated that jellied gasoline (napalm) was a far more effective incendiary than thermite when it comes to burning wood.

genuine question, what should we do about it?

various torrent sites.

explain exactly what you mean.

*guys I’m not being facetious I don’t understand

sure

that’s not how instances work

saw a headline the other day about the gov’t tracking people on tor using Google ads

please just put the interesting part in the title.

I just read about some bakery burning down, and some locals getting together to donate some of their ancient sourdough starter.

yeah I only have a ring for my outdoor cameras. I was considering switching my indoor system yo ring as my alarm company keeps raising their prices but I’m not putting ring cameras inside my house. especially because the privacy shutters on them are manual

the Ring app (I think) forced me to change my Wi-Fi password because I wasn’t allowed to use ampersands. according to support it’s because they “use ampersands in the code”
