Can you think of any other way that seems likely?

Poor life choices?

Cool, thank you. It's hard to find clear info out there

From what I have been reading they are planning to charge all users who are streaming remotely.... Even if the host is paying.

"If you want to watch you library away from home you’ll have to pay. It also affects anyone you share your home library with. They will have to pay if they are not Plex Pass subscribers themselves. Plex will offer a Remote Watch Pass tier for $2/month or $20/year."

Now, I am not saying this is by any means a big amount of money or making a judgment call about the reasonableness of them charging for what services.... But it definitely seems like they want to ensure they are getting cash from everyone who ever touches Plex. Again, $2 a month is very little, but that's on top of the charges for the host

They are pushing to make users pay as well

Ha! As a life long Albertan. We have had this cancer for a very very long time. Up until the NDP won an election a few cycles back the way it tended to work was the only way to unseat a conservative government was with an even more conservative government.

In school in a sanctuary district? I wouldn't let them in with a warrant. ICE can fuck off.

I wish Canada didn't burn fossil fuels for power but as an Albertan I can promise you that we do.

Memes only matter if they effect revenue. If profit climbed then the stupid stays.

Specifically from Tim Hortons, which despite not having been Canadian in ages still gets treated like a Canadian icon.

But as a result yeah, often referred to that way in common culture.
