At some point you just have to embrace incommensurability, right? Two millennia ago in Rome you could see live fatal gladiatorial combat in the Colosseum for free, which these days is not available for billions; but these days you can go to the zoo for the price of a lunch and see a capybara.

Hopefully, we'll see a lot of tactical voting.
Though when the Farage storm blows over, I think I'm going to have a very difficult time forgiving the Labour Party for ignoring their members vote for PR so they could exploit this.

"Not everyone who says to me, 'Lord, Lord,' will enter the kingdom of heaven, but only the one who does the will of my Father. Many will say to me on that day, 'Lord, did we not prophesy in your name ... ?' Then I will tell them, 'I never knew you. Away from me, you evildoers!'" — Matthew 21-43

I know nothing about laserdisc nor if you have specific requirements but it was weird for me to read you haven't found a player after 15 years — they pop up quite frequently, here (UK).
This might work out $500-ish with a reshipping service, don't know about tariffs: www.ebay.co.uk/itm/19785554...
