    That one was truly fucked up. I realy liked most of black mirror, but that one was a bit to much for me. What broke me was seeing the guy at the end missing multiple teeth and it’s very obvious where they went…

      I don’t actually remember that detail. I mostly remember the premise of the episode: torturing you with visuals to make you comply.

      But yeah. Torture in general, physical or mental, is messed up.

        That’s because they’re talking about another one, where someone’s braindamage is countered by a part of their brain being ran on a commercial cloud. Of course, enshittification follows, and her husband resorts to extreme measures to pay for the increasing cost.

          Ah, gotcha. Thank you for the information. I’m at least a bit behind on that show and don’t remember that premise from it at all, so I think it must have been after I last watched it. I think the last Black Mirror thing I saw was that interactive choice movie, but I might be misremembering.

          FWIW, I also liked Love, Death & Robots and it was mostly less depressing and/or frightening.
