I'm 28 so a little older than the prompt, I have a setup i never use it. I used it a lot as a kid but it doesn't hold up to the alternatives.

  • tv & movies: the worst matchup with alternatives. In the time of the first adbreak i could add the show or movie to my *arr and get it before the ads are done. I also don't have to tune in on the hour/half hour and can switch to my phone/pc if I want/need to go somewhere else.
  • live news: i don't like tv news generally, but if i wanted i could watch it for free on YouTube or via free app.
  • live sports: the most compelling usecase. Unfortunately when I did follow sports I followed a team from the next city over, which means they get no coverage here making it useless. It also more ads than streams. Streams are honestly still pretty inconvenient and still pretty ad filled (banner ads, "this goal sponsored by" physical ads in the arena). None of this is worth it to me anymore so I just don't watch anymore.

Imagine an article for TF1:

A valve engineer used Google to find a new matchmaking algorithm for Team fortress and now it's in the game

English Wikipedia is about 22gb without media.

Weed is cheap, less addictive (physically at least) and a lot easier to grow yourself. While they'll move over when the writing is on the wall I think they'd rather stick with child friendly bubblegum flavored tobacco vapes.

IMO megathreads are a way of suppressing news. They should only be used when a topic is actively drowning out all other discussion.

Yeah I think some of the older rainbow six's as well if memory serves.

I hate that mechanic, if they are going to go that "realistic" route then let you keep the half filled magazine

It's just a tiny blip, look at the 1Y or even 1M views.
