With so many narratives they could have chosen:

When a ton of immigrants come in it puts a strain on the social welfare system.

When a ton of new immigrant children comes into a new school district it puts a large strain on the teachers.

I mean there are things they could have chosen, but pets being eaten? Really? How exactly did they choose that?

Put up random crazy things on a wall and throw darts?

If your first crazy idea doesn’t fly try another one.

I hear ya most online instructions suck

As long as you don't sell to much at a time then no. Also the reality is they won't really know unless you tell them. Obviously if you are pulling in $50,000 a month that will probably show up.

That’s odd. Haven’t seen that much of a problem. Not saying you aren’t having the problem.

Although most videos I watch are about 4 minutes. The only exception would be critical role. Haven’t really noticed a big problem when they are doing their live stream.

Exactly. It comes down to a person's patience. The videos I watch are things from HLC, habitual line crosser, this is part of how he makes his money. I watch a video and a commercial and he gets paid. I can work with that. Also Critical Role, same thing there. If I want the entertainment then in some way shape or form they need to be paid. Either I pay them directly or I watch an ad.

Ads are usually skippable. Even if they aren't, I click on the computer screen then wait for a whole 8 seconds to watch what I want.

You've already done all you can.

Maybe it's more complicated then they want. Maybe they just don't want to change. Not much else you can do.

The question I would have at this point is how much of a change was it? For example, all their channels right now are coming through service, so that means one remote and effectively one graphical interface.

So under the new system with everything coming through one graphical interface? Or how many different systems would this entail? How many times would they have to change input? As a person gets older having to deal with multiple inputs, possibly even multiple remotes can be more headache than it is worth.

I don’t know what the age of your parents are, but with my mom she’s over 70, she knows the sound systems makes TV shows and movies sound much better, but all the extra remotes and changing of inputs, etc. it’s too much for her.

~~I don’t know what the age of your parents are, but with my mom she’s over 70, she knows the sound systems makes TV shows and movies sound much better, but all the extra remotes and changing of inputs, etc. she just it’s too much for her~~ no idea of why this got duplicated

again, I don’t know what the age of your parents are so I’m not sure if that would be a problem or not? But it is something I’m curious on is how many different interfaces/systems and remotes are they having to deal with when you put them over on the new system?

Also, sometimes even without age people are just going, give me one system, integrated into one interface, give me one remote and just let me view the shows.

Sorry if I sound like I’m arguing against you I do apologize if I sound that way. I’m just curious what your responses are , And if it turns out that it is a number of remotes, it might be something I think about.

I hear ya

This is the best option. Put the system in and go over a lot and show them that ALL of their shows they want are available. Then show what it costs. Pay for it yourself as a gift to them. Once they see the bill (if it's cheaper) and once they see ALL of their shows are available, that should convince them.

I think you meant desire not desite

So lemmy and Reddit?
