My old person trait is that I think 'ghosting' is completely unacceptable and you owe the other person a face-to-face conversation.

My OPT is that you should be able to buy and own your software instead of perpetually renting it.

You can. I think it's called "pirate bay", but don't quote me on that. ;)

When I was younger I would be there with you. Now as I’m older I just want it to work and the Pirate Bay is hit or miss sometimes.

Not sure if you're joking or not, but just in case... stop downloading media manually. Look into Radarr, Sonarr, and Lidarr. You can self-host on any PC using Docker.

Half joking. Pirated apps are sometimes sketchy, but you can get older versions of things that just worked. Alternatively there's Linux and the open source world, which has never let me down.
