When did Netflix start limiting the number of streams you could have at one time and why doesn't it work right? My kids and wife are in bed now and I was trying to watch narcos and it's telling me I can't because I have two active streams already the show my wife was watching and the show my daughter was watching, but they stopped an hour ago and I can't put anything else on. Wtf?

Some thoughts on FFXV for those of you who were curious:

1) It's fun! Not a masterpiece or anything but you have fun playing it.
2) The combat isn't always button mashy...but it can get button mashy.
3) The camera angles legit suck. Sometimes in combat you get stuck with the camera behind a bush so all you see is some half rendered shrubbery.
4) The main plot line is suuuuuuper short and it's pretty easy to accidentally hit the point of no return.

[Reveal] Spoiler:
There's a time traveling dog thing that let's you go back in time and keep playing. I'm assuming you can use this to go back and explore at a higher level like a new game+ thing.


The dialog is corny, plot is kinda contrived but I kinda liked the characters.

I side quested hard and finished the game in 51ish hours... I think you could beat the main story in 20-25 hours.

I think the dialog being corny is kind of a good thing.. it is endearing, not facepalming in my opinion.

Re your spoiler and other points:

[Reveal] Spoiler:
Yes, you can use Umbra to go back to the original area and do new sidequests, dungeons, explore. Apparently you can update the Regalia to fly, which is pretty neat. I also agree about the plot being contrived though. I think there was a good set-up, but once you get stuck and on the linear path it falls apart. Things escalate with the death of Lunafreya, but then you're basically at the end of the game so it's not fleshed out.

They are apparently doing patches to add story quests to the later part of the game which will hopefully help. I think this game would have been much better if it stayed open world and the last half of the story had more meat.

just interviewed a lady with congenital glaucoma and deafness...and she's been waiting on SS for 3 years. I'll never fully grasp the SSD process.

Genital should be replaced by something else for the word congenital. Confusing!

I've found cinnamon to be a pretty effective appetite suppressant. Interesting!
