Lmao, you're so mad 🤣 and you're not even paying attention. I said the threads were damaged. Stop trying to be an elitist asshole and pay attention. As I pulled the drain plug out the attempted repair pulled out with it. What you're seeing here is after it was cleaned back up and I could finally see it better. The other tech had already started tapping and recutting the threads.

How about instead of calling me a dumbass you actually try to be a decent person?

Yeah, that's like the child throwing a temper tantrum because they don't want to clean the room. That doesn't actually solve anything. Unless you're going to start rolling heads and starting an actual violent revolution, you're not doing anything. And instead you're just making it more difficult for the rest of us to keep shit together.

The lawyers of one of the options are literally arguing in court that presidential immunity means he could carry out an assignation of their political opponent and be immune as long as his party has enough power to avoid an impeachment conviction.

YouTube subscription does have traction... And like I said, every streaming service has an ad free option. Some of them have an ad supported cheaper option, but they all have some option that allows you to consume the content without ads. It seems like you're kind of just talking out of your ass.

There's an economics of everything at play here, broadcast television had ads, cable TV at first didn't but it was also significantly more expensive. Cable TV wanted to lower prices to attract more customers, and in order to do that they started receiving more money from advertisers to make up the difference. Not all of the cable TV channels did this. However, even to this very day there are plenty of cable TV channels that don't have ads. They are considered the premium channels that you have to pay extra for.

The same thing is going to continue to be true on the internet as well, You will always have options to avoid ads by paying for the content that you want.
