My point was not only that aspect, but also about the fact that input and output of the task is information. And while information itself can be a "product" or be provided as a service, in most cases, it's not.
But anyhow, I feel like I'm overexplaining myself over a term I said wasn't good.
Think that's called NATing
Ein Kommentar, der Leiden schafft.
With administrative, I meant that IT is a about information flow - defining rules how data is consumed, transformed and ultimately output. These by definition of a classic business I'd see as administrative.
I agree the wording isn't good, and I didn't mean it as in "anyone working in IT is just performing administrative tasks", but rather that the field of IT is traditionally more of an enabler of other businesses.
The mechanic is usually the actual worker - you run a repair shop - but his spare parts management is an administrative task, and nowadays usually implemented by an IT solution.
At least in some cases, it might just be wholesome advice. The fact that you have "a job" and a whole different persona from that and they're two separate things that sometimes intertwine probably brings you closer to us in administrative tasks (in the end, IT is by definition always something administrative rather than actually productive) than me as in an IT guy with an influencer. Because ultimately, your actual identity is your job, and by conclusion, your whole life is performative, which sounds REALLY exhausting
I mean if you're going for the piracy route, you never used streaming services or bought physical media anyways and the whole discussion is moot.
Depending on the definition of war, it could be either yes, no or we already are.
Well with your DVDs the "HD resolution" question is easily answered: you don't get HD resolution. Weird comparison there. Especially since you complain about Disney+ not going beyond 480p in your specific case - so why buy DVDs with the same shitty resolution?
While I generally agree here, resolution isn't everything, bitrate also plays a role, and some content in streaming services has been compressed rather badly so that you get artifacts that you don't have on DVDs. A DVD will certainly look better than 480p streaming content despite a much older codec which light only exists as a reason for an upsell.
I think the way to go is a Homeserver (could even be a raspberry pi) where you can somewhat secure your storage with appropriate redundancy.
And how would you get stuff onto your homeserver legally?
Thay said, they still sell a shit load of cars.
It's only a meaningful metric if there are margins in these sales, which I'm not totally doubting, but the number alone doesn't tell everything
Maybe just stop complaining and focus? /s
Another funny win on gold because of the unimpressive jokers. Got golden first which I think was really risky in painted deck, but took the gamble and it actually paid off! Runner and Fortune Teller were just meant to be stopgaps but painted is probably the best deck to build runner so I did just that. Rental Hallucination by mid game to build mult (which it did, unfortunately no screenshots) This is how my deck looked, I tried to get a lot of red sealed steels into it to make use of the hand size. Fun run and shows what's possible if you make use of your deck's strength. 
… remember you're not as useless as this Banana:
First time actually having a working deck around madness. Was good enough to reach Ante 13. https://imgur.com/a/7jIb8qO
This is one of the best buffon packs I ever got, and it was the very first one I opened that run… and at that point, neither of them did anything (since it's abandoned deck). Blueprint was still appreciated but I thought it was a fun coincidence that technically, neither of these would help right after selecting.
Finished the run, was low stakes anyways but wanted to share the situation.
Beat gold today on phone (previous time was on PC) after hitting a wall before... and it was on a deck that looked really unimpressive in both cards and jokers so I thought I'd share, kind of a contrast to the screenshots of super sick setups. It was kind of close in points but money was never an issue. I ran delayed gratification first half which synergized with green.
No negative, foil or polychrome jokers, and only a single holographic. Two common, two uncommon, one rare.
It looks really boringly unoptimized, which I think makes it interesting, strangely enough.
Such a lucky run so far (Red Deck Gold difficulty)… Not quite sure yet what to do, probably sell the tarot joker for the blueprint
