I don't know how to properly describe how blood curdlingly angry I become when I want to watch Invincible without ads, and even when I pay for prime video (plus extra for ad free) I get "skipable" ads for other Amazon shows. I'm just going to pirate this shit if this is the norm.

Not to be a total stick in the mud, but I pay for premium YouTube. And you're going to advertise to me, in the video? I. Do. Not. Want. Ads. I pay extra to not see them. I don't want to hear about your pans. Is there a way for me to pay even more to never see ads?

Update: Drove around Madrid/Spain. Madrid is a lot, but outside of the high density Madrid stuff, driving felt very safe. And more importantly, I felt very safe as a pedestrian everywhere in Spain. We should really all slow down when we drive.

Rome is amazing but there is zero chance I could survive driving here. It's like the wild west

I'm endlessly frustrated by this idea that the modern world has robbed us of meaning. Are you not enjoying yourself basking in this wealth? Can you not objectively compare your situation to 5, 10, 20, or 50 years ago? Skill issue.

I think that cash back on credit transfers sucks. Miles are a scam. I hate shopping around for credit cards, and I just want an easy way to transact money where the service doesn't take a 4+% haircut on every transaction then promises to give me 1% back.

I miss the techno optimism of my youth. When I started into software, the future felt bright and full of promise, but now it feels like the field is filled to the brim with cryptobro and ai grifter types. Mr. Musk is the poster child. We could have had so much more...
