It required a $200 special external HD-DVD player to do so. Man, I feel bad for people who bought… oh wait, I bought two. :(

By the end, they were selling for like $50 and giving away discs.

I now try not to be the first to buy anything “new tech,” I was certain HDR and Dolby Vision were going to do the same as Blu-Ray and HD-DVD and one would kill the other, it could still happen but maybe not.

I don’t think Red is putting his foot too far into Hyde’s ass, he wrote a letter in support of his character to I can only assume was trying for a more lenient sentence.

I don’t think it’s going to work out for them in the long run, most users aren’t going to want to pay the cost to keep it running and then they risk the possibility of crack groups cracking it and then they are on the hook for API usage they aren’t getting paid for. I appreciate they want to try and keep it going, I use that app, but I don’t see the potential costs as sustainable.

Frakes recently renewed his call for the episode “Code of Honor” from season 1 to be completely removed from reruns, home video, and steaming platforms. He made the call in the past. So while they might not ever remove it, some people would like it to be removed.

“But I was told or I was under the impression that it had rubbed so many people the wrong way that it was pulled. I think they should take it out of the rotation. I think it is a great time to make that kind of – as small as it is – to make that kind of a statement would be fabulous.”

Also, I just realized I posted this on the completely wrong article that I thought I was, I thought I was posting to a different topic about Frakes’ request to remove the episode after finding out it was on Paramount’s streaming service.

I hate this reaction to removal they want, I’m a big fan of the placement card at the start of these things that say “What you are about to see is wrong and shouldn’t have been done,” but not that removal of the content. I think it’s way more powerful to put that content warning placard before a show from the '90s as proof there are still things that need to be done and it’s not a “distant” past thing.

Edit, I guess '80s for this episode.

The subs should do rolling blackouts on important dates to their communities, Apple announcement day, blackouts… Iphone update days, blackouts… and so on.

It seems quite clear that nobody at Reddit has ever had any form of PR training, The Verge says their PR person was basically saying two different things and contradicting themselves the article goes on to say “I don’t know how to interpret that, or his other replies explaining that the current actions might be a pastiche of interpretations of different rules instead of just Rule 4 — but it all makes me wonder if the conspiracy theorists among us were correct.”

I’m not surprised, a lot of people that are unhappy have left, at least temporarily, and that means those that don’t think it’s a big deal are able to come out in the open.

I’ve also noticed that several of the “Should we remain restricted/private or reopen” polls are going towards open.
