Id love to see a Weekend At Bernie's situation where the putrid festering corpse of Trump is rolled around to events, wins the presidency, and nobody seems to notice since he smells a little better and has lost some weight now.

Sure, check through this comment thread as a few have already been mentioned.

Good to know, hopefully this creates a drive to make alternatives a little more user friendly to set up

There's a few recent guides on Reddit that discuss this and automation. I got access to some private torrent trackers this year, but haven't touched them since I got my Usenet subscription. I've been waiting decades for it to be this easy once you get it set up.

If you already have that automation part going, this should be pretty straight forward. Add a Usenet download client to your *arr programs, put in the account info from your Usenet provider, add on your account info for nzb trackers, and it works just the same except with more consistency and speed.

Google/learn about/consider these things

VPN, Usenet provider (i.e. EasyNews), Usenet indexers (i.e. NZBgeek), Usenet client (i.e. NZBget), Managing your library (Sonarr, Radar, Prowlarr, Filebot),

Media server & streaming (i.e. Plex, Jellyfin)

I watch through my firestick or android phones

I might be missing something, but there are lots of guides once you figure out what you're looking for. A little technical know-how makes things go smoother and faster though.

They won't change their desire to be hateful people, they'll just ignore your logic that contradicts their world view. The only people that can change their opinion will be their friends, not the people they're convicted are their enemy.

Start working on the ones willing to listen.. it'll be a slow process to undo decades of political indoctrination but it's possible. It requires finesse and a gentle approach of friendship and kindness.

Then shove a stick up the ass of the political leaders driving this idiocy and cook them alive above a fire on a spitroast with an apple in their mouth.

Elon Musk is a compromised citizen, now a Russian asset

I dust off my robe and wizard hat.

Plex is a great streaming alternative. Cancelling Netflix pays for the upgrade to gigabit Internet. Hard drives are cheaper now than ever. Usenet access remains safe and speedy. The DIY community for automation is thriving.

Is that the Jolly Roger coming in to port? Welcome back old friends.

There is always a grift, I'd expect the charge to users to be probably 20-50% higher than the revenue from normal users.
