I'm getting worried that more of you aren't pirating stuff. I'll look for a show I want in one, maybe two places before I just torrent the thing. If I'm impatient I'll check the roku app since it searches multiple places at the same time, but if it's not there it's peer to peer packet sharing time.

Like it's the same level of options to me as any streaming service. It's not on Netflix, the antenna, or YouTube TV. Huh guess that means it's on the Literally All Of It service: my anonymous friends.

Thrice my brother asked me why I downloaded a show or movie and I said i couldn't find it but it turns out it was on Netflix. I just didn't find it on the first place I looked and skipped to the place that was a guarantee to have it.

Poob doesn't have it for you. Peers does.

Fragile Snowflake Trump Threatens NBC, Seth Myers for Telling Jokes About Him

J.D. Wolf at MeidasTouch Network:

In a late night Truth Social post, former Trump launched a scathing attack on comedian Seth Meyers and his employer, NBC, accusing the network of spreading political propaganda. Trump specifically targeted Meyers, calling him "Marble Mouth Meyers" and labeling him untalented, before further railing against NBC as a "truly bad group of people." The former president also broadened his criticism to include Comcast, the parent company of NBC and MSNBC, accusing them of pushing "in-kind contributions" to the Democratic Party through their programming. Trump framed late-night comedy shows like Meyers' as not merely entertainment but as tools of political warfare, designed to undermine him and the Republican Party.

Fragile snowflake Donald Trump threatens NBC, Comcast, and Seth Meyers all because Meyers ruthlessly and righteously mocks the Orange Wanker.

PAY WRITERS.

This isn't that complicated.

Hollywood Reporter has even higher numbers- the top earner is over 300 MILLION PER YEAR.

Hot take, but I think the idea of companies and corporations being evil is actually propaganda created by the people who run or own said companies or corporations so that they have a thinly veiled way to hide themselves so they can get away with all the horrible things that they do while people get angry at something that doesn’t physically exist or mindlessly blame the employees who are under them.

On the Internet Outage…

I just spent almost 10 hours without internet access because of an outage in my area, and I must say…GIVE ME MORE OF THAT!

I worked hard, finished a book I’ve had on my list, watched a well-loved DVD, listened to my vinyl collection, wrote…

Seriously, @comcast, threaten me with a good time again.

Best day in ages. Thank you (if only for failing).

Netflix Shareholders Decline To Back Executive Compensation Packages After WGA Urged Rejection Of “Inappropriate” Pay During Strike

June 1, 2023

[thewitchoftherock]

Before I worked in retail at a lovely beauty shop, I worked at a call center.

Tech Support. For Comcast. It’s as bad as you think it was. Lemmie tell ya a story.

The year was 2011. I’m at the call centre, working away, doing my best and getting chewed out because I often helped people beyond what was required (driver issues and shit, instead of just following our LOQ. If you have someone who refuses to leave their script, they probably got written up for doing so just FYI. )

Anyway,

Buddy calls in, and right off the bat he comes in swinging. Rawr rawr rawr, my internet isn’t working, fix this now, you guys suck. like, dude, I don’t disagree with you, but I have literally no control over the company I’m a fuckin’ cog. Whatever. I go into his account to check his system/devices/account, and I see the modem is fully offline. That’s actually good, because it means it’ll be super easy to fix: either the damn thing is busted (needs a tech) or it’s out of power. So, I ask buddy to unplug the device from the outlet, wait a second, and plug it back in again. I didn’t ask this because I thought resetting it would fix it, I asked him to do this because peeps get pissy if you ask them if their stuff is plugged in.

Foreshadowing.

Anyway, he grumbles and complains, and does the thing. Nothing. OK. There’s one more thing I can check. I ask him if the modem is plugged into the wall, or a power bar.

“It’s plugged into a power bar.”

“Ah.” I say, “Ok. Can I get you to plug it directly into the wall?”

“Why the Fuck do I have to do that?”

Now, the answer we give is “well, that’s because sometimes the modem and the power bar don’t work well together, and it’s just easier to check it if it’s plugged into the wall.”

This is bullshit. The truth is that we don’t know where you got this power bar. We don’t know how old it is. We don’t know if you got this shit rigged up like the dad in “A Christmas Story” with three dozen things plugged into a set power bars all plugged in and twisted like some chthonic electro beast. I mean, sure, that SOUNDS hot, but it’s not useful when trying to do troubleshooting and figure out if your power bar sucks and is broken.

This guy *loses his shit* at me. Rawr rawr rawr, every time I call you got me running around doing all this shit, blah blah blah, No, I can’t unplug it, there’s no other outlets in the room.

Now I pause, the gears in my brain quickly clicking together. “There’s… no outlets in that room?”

“No, there’s not! Not any!”

Ok, well, ASIDE from that being absolutely not to electrical codes for modern houses, it also raises a new question.

“Sir… what’s your powerbar plugged into?”

“It’s plugged into a powerbar!”

“…. The same powerbar?”

There’s a moment of stunned silence, followed by a *Click*. I pause my line for a minute so I don’t get any more incoming calls while I take my notes, but really I’m watching this account. I refresh a few times, and after a minute or so, the modem is MAGICALLY ONLINE

This dude. This chaotic dumbass had his modem plugged into a powerbar, which was plugged into ITSELF. Like, I know there’s that meme flying around that shows that, and it’s supposed to be a joke on how stupid people can be, an exaggeration of sorts… But I swear, this is NOT an exaggeration. This shit actually happened.

So, the moral of the story: If you’re on the line with Tech Support, and they ask you to just “Check the wires” or “Make sure the device is plugged in firmly.” Just do the thing. We’ve dealt with a lot of dumbasses in our time.

Before it’s asked: No, this was not an elder gentleman. It was a Prime-Of-His-Life dude.

Ben Blanchet at HuffPost:

MSNBC’s Rachel Maddow has reportedly agreed to take a “far lesser amount” than her current $30 million a year as worries loom among MSNBC staff after parent company Comcast revealed its plan to spin off several NBCUniversal channels — including the network — into a new company. Maddow, who has been with MSNBC since 2008, renegotiated her deal with the network and is set to make $25 million annually for the next five years, a $5 million per year pay cut, The Ankler reported Thursday. Executives told the outlet that Maddow has been “ratings Viagra” for MSNBC and the network “needed to keep her” amid an uncertain time. “No one else can do what she does. You can’t build a brand like it overnight,” one unnamed executive told The Ankler. HuffPost has reached out to MSNBC for comment.

Comcast’s plan, which is set to take about a year, would create a company called “SpinCo” to house a number of assets including MSNBC, CNBC, E!, Golf Channel, Oxygen and Syfy. The assets set to move to SpinCo generated $7 billion in revenue for the year ending Sept. 30, according to Comcast. The news of Maddow’s pay cut comes as MSNBC staffers are “in a panic” over the network’s future, sources told The New York Post earlier this week.

[...] An unnamed NBC News producer — in remarks to TheWrap — said staffers are “in the dark” over what the shakeup means for their outlet’s relationship with MSNBC moving forward, adding that they expect the ties to be “cut off.”

Is this the first disturbing sign that the state of the news media in the US is careening towards where it currently is in Hungary, in which it gives undue praise to its authoritarian leader?

MSNBC’s Rachel Maddow is taking a pay cut due to the spinning off of nearly all of Comcast’s cable properties into a separate company.

A shitty company does a shitty rebrand and starts being know by an X. Okay.
