Today I’m donating my streaming sticks. I got a ONN brand 2k one I bought for 15 and I got an Amazon Firestick 4K I got for $3 from a thrift store because they didn’t know what it was.
And I love the concept of stream sticks, I really do. Too fucking bad that corporate interests got in the way and now everything has to have a bundle of ads at every damn turn. Not even some of the things I’m subscribed to is free from ads because this is the future apparently, we’re here.
Shame because I don’t want to let these go and even if I were to subscribe to Netflix’s ad-free subscription, that’s only one source. Why do that when I can just grab a long HDMI cable, plug it into my desktop and to my TV and I can watch everything that’s there, without ads because of the extensions I use to block ads.
McDonalds. It’s the shittiest fast food place and maybe the most unjustifiably expensive.
If my kids didn’t go do crazy for happy meals I’d never spend a dime there.
You can just buy the dam toys you know
The price of the you alone isn’t worth it, the kids will happily eat the food and it’s less than 6 bucks for a meal and a toy for them.
Oh yeah they’ve got that market cornered for sure. I’ve got an 18 month old, so all that to look forward to.
