You didn't read my reply. I could've done better knowing people would just skim it but you can't accuse me of not reading when you yourselves didn't.

It should be obvious I was listing them as a counterpoint, and it was wrong of y'all to assume I didn't know that Netflix, Amazon, and Disney were American. It wasn't even a case of online sarcasm, since my second sentence made clear I was using them as a comparison point to say "Crunchyroll is the best of them".

Still, I was maybe a little bit too snarky given the state of reading comprehension in 2025 (which is "skim it and if it doesn't make sense then assume who you're talking to an idiot").

Can y'all not read? I listed six different American options and then said "Crunchyroll is the best you're gonna get".

I'd add a note just to make what I'm trying to say even more obvious.

Crunchyroll aside, your options are Netflix, Amazon Prime, Disney Plus, YouTube, Hulu, Adult Swim, etc.

Crunchyroll is the best you're gonna get, unless you want to get Britbox or something (which I assume does not have anime).

EDIT: I listed 6 American platforms to demonstrate that your options are Crunchyroll or nothing.

Really high latency in Australia, the genre search is a bit lackluster (I have zero interest in Reggae, for example), and I can't bookmark individual songs.

I'll still use it, the next-least-American option is Spotify and they're going all-in on AI. It's just kinda a disappointment.

EDIT: There's also Soundcloud, I forgot about that.

My habits are formed. It's no longer even driven by hatred of America's actions. Even being better alone won't bring me back.

That article is a week old, and I'm guessing the trend hasn't sustained given the current state of the US stock market.

Did it work for China? Last I checked China held basically all the cards and America got peanuts out of that deal while China got MASSIVE concessions.

I'll be switching to OpenSUSE soon. Just gotta finish my Epic Games Free Games backlog.

Football fans will do anything to watch the cup. Don't expect them to not turn out.

If I want to go from Australia to Europe, I'm probably going through Canada or Mexico. Don't really want to go through the UAE either, or over (self-proclaimed) Israeli airspace.

It isn't. The Democratic party is made up of wealthy elite with no principles other than winning election. Their policies around minorities might be different, but for the most part the Democrats are similar in their strength of character.

Japan owns a lot of American debt but most of it is owned by American domestic companies.

America won't disappear, it'll just get more unstable. That's what I'm worried about with all these wars.

That said, America's economic heft (particularly shale and world reserve currency status) is a core part of America's ability to assert influence.

Yes, as I mentioned he said so himself that he wants to annex Greenland even if by military force.

Trump's threats are far more threatening than some pretty reasonable beaurocratic moves, although the threats do put the beaurocratic moves in a really unflattering context (regardless of whether it's related or not, I have no idea on that front, I don't know if the northern command is MAGA).

I guess someone in the Canadian government has been watching too much Fox News if they think LA is particularly dangerous.

Meh, millionaires are fine. Becoming a millionaire is something you can do with good health and hard work.

If it's 10 million I get a bit concerned. If it's 100 million I have a problem. If it's 1 billion then I'd consider them evil incarnate.

Given that geographically it is on the North American continent, shares a land border with Canada, and is in the Arctic I think this decision does make logical sense.

The timing though, and Trump's stated intention, makes this a threat.

If it's Boeing I'm not going.

If it's Boeing, I'm not going.
