Yeah it is in a way. Thankfully it doesn’t leech into my main Amazon shopping reccomendations.

I tried to use their UX. Its bad. And the worst is I fell asleep watching something like Project Bluebook once. And the Prime Reccomendations streamed a SHITLOAD of alien conspiracy content while i slept. It ruined the recs etc. And you cant delete the primary account profile…only the sub-profiles.
Frankly i only go on it to see what I should maybe load into Sonarr/Radarr at this point. fuck em.
He had a dry run with the attempt on his life. He knew nothing would come of it. That the rest of the world would do nothing.
Hell Russia has since pushed the boundaries much further with no recourse.
I can respect that he’s principled and still recognize the total lack of forethought in the move.
This guy has to be one of the dimmest folks I have ever seen. Putin straight tried to kill him, failed and the world did nothing and yet he still turned himself in as some type of martyr. The world was going to do nothing and they were going to torture him and trump up any charges they felt to ensure he never sees the light of day again and for what? Nothing.
He could have done more even in exile.
Frankly i find it inconsiderate to the social contract to go out on holidays, and sometimes around them.
Its frankly why i always found Black Friday and the “scope creep” of this festival of consumerism partially so repulsive. I mean its repulsive on its own just in the way people act, but doubly so in that it runs right through a national holiday.
I mean there’s precedence. Avian bird flus have been known to infect humans.
I was going to say “are we in a simulation” but this would work too.
Yeah definately a “water is wet” kinda revelation.
Also, given that I am not Chinese, I dont really see much of a risk for foriegn citizens. I would be more concerned with my own governments spying (and most all of them do in the western world).
Worse. It went off into other conspiracy subjects like 9/11 and all sorts of crap. Theres frankly a lot of weird stuff on amazon prime for free that i would have never seen had i not dozed off.
Most of the other apps (netflix, plex, etc) and even the streaming platform (roku) have measures to combat falling asleep. Whether its disabling auto-play (which amazon didnt have) or bandwidth saver features that will periodically ask if you are still there (which amazon appears to somehow bypass or disable, or did).
These days though i set a sleep timer to shut off the lights and TV at midnight.
