So prime video, which I pay for, now is forcing ads on me. I assume I am expected to pay more to upgrade to the ad free version. Seems like Bezos needs some more billions because he's not enough of a rich cunt. Im open to any of you young people to tell this old man how to pirate this shit. Fuckim

Yes, and not just one. Some episodes require three long ass ads. Fuck BEZOS.

Cancel! You’re totally right, Bezos doesn’t need the bucks. You can jump through hoops or just cancel; the selection sucks to begin with. I have a disabled man living in my home…he mostly stays home, so YouTube TV and Netflix. That’s it for about $100 a month. Keep it simple..

download and install qbittorrent (best torrent client i've personally found, doesn't have shitty ads that ruined many a client back in the day), then go to thepiratebay.org/index.html for most tv/movies, search what you want. If it's just an episode, try "show name s01e01" with s01 meaning season 1

e01 meaning episode 1, obviously. try "show name complete" for complete series' You'll get a bunch of results that look like this, you want the highest number in the SE column, 0 means it won't download because nobody's sharing it but the torrent exists. You want to avoid filenames that contain

things like "HDRip" or "Telesync", you want to see BDRip or 1080p.HD somewhere in the filename at the very least, and you want to click on the magnet next to the one you want. Your browser should ask if you want to let qbittorrent deal with magnet links and you want to say yes.

At that point it should give you a menu that asks where you want to save it and it should start downloading.

Once it's downloaded you can move/rename the files but it's generally good form to leave it 'seeding' for a while (for other users) before doing that.

Will you tell me how this push pin marker works? You stick the image in the comments section of a post that you want to find again, then how do you search for it? Thanks for the tolerance in advance.

I cancelled all things Amazon after the 2024 election. Super easy, no withdrawals, literally don't miss any of it. No regrets whatsoever. Just get rid of it.

You're complaining that you have to pay a small premium for something that didn't exist when you signed up for Prime and that was included for free for years? 🤔

Honestly, the thing I hate most about prime is that when I try to log in to my Amazon account to subscribe--or do anything else--I just get an error about having requested too many one-time passwords even on the first attempt. I tried creating a new account, but the same thing happens.

Amazon is a publicly owned company. The President and CEO is Andy Jassy. If you want to be mad at Bezos, he fully owns the Washington Post. Cancel your subscription.

This is the best advice here. Always use a VPN with this stuff. The VPN is also good if you're connecting to public wifi like in an airport.

I got prime free for 3 months with my new phone service. I've watched cool new movies and shows but I honestly wouldn't pay for it out of my own pocket. They fuck up my orders and still run ads even though it's a paid subscription. Fuck Amazon!
