I hate how fan now means mindless consumer these days and any reflecting on the criticisms of a series means you’re somehow excluded from being a fan.

Oh I’m used to the idea of ordering AC units straight from manufacturer.
In the future, chargeback for that?
Okay but can I keep using my Teflon condoms?
Cool how do they track you then. Pretty certain it’s CC related.
What if you pay cash?
Even worse than outright negativity, there are capitalists that spin negative things as uplifting because they ignore the horrible things that happen to get there causing an unhealthy dependency on said horrible things…
Did you not see their strongly worded blog post? They’re doing everything they can!
Got any fun or good examples?
They’ve started phasing that one out, but I’ve found repeating “help” gets similar results.
If you are hitting 2 cigs at once it becomes a much more feasible goal
If only Smartcars were sold in the US still…
I was trying to find a link to a supplier, could you link?
Edit: found that it’s on mouser, but also discovered they’re using USB-Micro still, so that’s going to have to be a pass :(

What does that even mean.
They said “Authorized Retailer,” not that they were the actual company. They were truly selling the service, regardless of legalese around being authoritized, I’d think it perfectly okay for them to say you can pay X to get Y and as long as you receive Y (in this case ability to watch cable).
I wasn’t even talking about SW here, just how fan is used these days. I’m not and never was part of the SW fanbase, but from what I’ve seen from the outside that’s because all the legitimate criticisms were ignored years ago and everyone that cared moved on from the new corporately-stoked toxic fanbase.
