Taking a Plex

Sometimes there is a perfectly good, maybe even brilliant, open source project to which some corporate bag-muncher decides to buy the rights and slowly, over the years, convert it into a fucking "earnings channel" by first requiring a cloud account to sign on, then progressively sliding a giant cucumber into your anus until ultimately, they start extorting you for money.

Oh, no, is someone taking a Plex on Audacity?

Chill-Plex

Someone who is chill and relaxed but is also ready to bring out the worst in people and divide the party in half.

You know he’s Chill-Plex judging by his relaxed expression and how everyone else is fighting over that golden solo cup.
