As someone who used the streaming plugins of the early '00s I'd say you're better off running your own media server. As others have said they always broke and you'd have no way of knowing if and when they'd be fixed.

    Personally, after seeing inside industrial facilities I'd personally prefer to use something they're forced to classify differently. Yes, I know there's a level of acceptable puss in milk or bugs in food, but I'd rather play pretends that the person processing everything is also concerned that I might be ingesting whatever is in the canister. Some people don't like using tap water on their pasta and we humor them because it's going to get boiled anyway but it's their own personal use.

    Remember that at one point Italians and Irish weren't considered white either. Trump always acts like he wants to take the US back to a certain period of time, but that's only loosely based off however he's feeling right now. At any point he'd be liable to say that certain white people aren't white and just get rid of them, but honestly, he's already talking about getting rid of Rosie O'Donnell who already left just because she talks bad about him. No other reasons listed, and she's white, so who knows 🤷

    The infrastructure is set up for cars, and then everyone has to drive their own car because we can't share a space respectfully. The only time I'd consider riding the bus is if I didn't have a car and if I had to for work. In the states the view towards public transportation is that if you depend on it you're not doing too well, which is sad. I commute 70 miles 1 way to work and would love to have a bullet train or something as an option. But as it is now, no, it's not even an option. I had a previous coworker that took 2 buses to work every day, and he was always telling me about the "interesting" people he'd run into on the bus, like a guy with a puppet at 7:00 in the morning, or the drivers that didn't know the schedule so they couldn't tell him when another bus would be coming. No thanks.

    I know, I know, he's just paving over the grass, who gives a shit, but if you keep reading:

    Are there more White House renovation plans? Yes, Trump has shared plans to build a $100 million ballroom, similar to his private Mar-A-Lago club in Palm Beach, Florida.
