Too cool to be a nerd, too nerdy to be cool.

I dont believe this will have the desired affect Google thinks it will. I, personally, will never buy Premium or switch to Chrome without an AD block. If anything, I will just download via linux or just not watch Youtube anymore.

I remember when EA did something similar with Dragon Age Origins with an NPC that spawns at your camp. They tell you an engaging story then before you can hit accept quest you are hit with a pay wall. I remember being so pissed off, def added to my current hatred and do not buy attitude I have for EA Games these days. Sad to see Bethesda repeat similar failures.

If it comes down to it, I have no issue just not using Youtube ever again. FireFox and Ublock are your friend.

I got my parents in their 70s to use Ubuntu for a few years now. All they use is a web browser and word processing application for .docx files. They used MS Word for years and I found Only Office has a similar UI and opens word docs.

At one point I gave them an older laptop running windows again and they hated it. They wanted Linux back.

Not the best Mel Brooks movie, but it still hits hard.

This is a great suggestion!

Supporting your local library is always a pro move

What services do you use?

As a rental service I have used gamefly and redbox. When buying media, I have used Amazon, Hamilton Books, HPB and Decluttr.

Whats your experience with any of these services?

Gamefly

Its, okay....

Long mailing times due to lack of shipping centers.

Library of movies is pretty good, but lacks many classics.

Low stock.

Good place for contemporary media.

Redbox

Harder to find in my area.

limited library.

Decluttr

This is hit or miss. I have only bought and never sold items here.

Large library of changing titles.

Since pricing is set by an end user, so prices can be amazing or down right insane. (no one is paying $100+ dollars for a used blu ray)
