    Me too thanks.

    I’ve tried to combat it as I get older by circling around. I’ll focus on something for weeks or months or years, then put it down for a year or more as I cycle through four other things.

    I should be ready to try blacksmithing again in about 5 years.

    When cable TV was first a thing, it was advertised as extra content and with NO commercials. Pay us money, we’ll give you a big bundle of channels, and you won’t have to see commercials anymore.

    Then they started adding more and more commercials in. Nowadays, a half-hour slot is 1/3rd commercials, and probably another 15% of that time is credits and “previously on” or “before the break” or pointless shitty padding

    Then Netflix came out. Pay us a monthly fee, you can see all this content whenever you want, no commercials.

    Then everyone wanted a slice of Netflix’s pie, and now we have a dozen separate streaming services you all have to pay monthly fees for.

    The solution is Cable TV 2.0. Compile it all back into one service, charge a higher fee, cut all the ads out (again). Call it Fiber TV or something, idk. Otherwise people will realize it’s easier to pirate shit again than to navigate and pay for 8 different streaming services
