To this day, if you want to watch National Weather Service radar images on a loop (just in case you would like to see the tornado intent on killing you, and you're locale isn't worthy of live coverage in the nearest media market), you still have to use Flash.
What I suspect is REALLY going on here is that John Deere and other manufacturers have adopted a model of selling their equipment to farmers either at a loss or at cost, with the understanding that they'll make their profit in implicit servicing contracts.
So their motivation is no longer to make a good, durable product, but one that is incredibly complicated, delicate, and expensive (aka, a Porche or Ferrari), requiring frequent repairs that can only be done by them (a monopoly with DMCA teeth).
Yes, some of the remaining big farmers (some of which have Park Place residences) are assholes, but they have suppliers that are a perfect match.
Season 3 of Bojack Horseman. Can't wait to binge through it! Admittedly, it has been a while since I've watched anything on Netflix (or anything else on TV), so that maybe part of their problem too.
This is the exact reason Brexit happened and why Trump will probably win. Living-wage jobs have been methodically destroyed on both sides of the pond by the greed-pig class. The result has been both the Oxbridge toffs and the Koch Brothers have completely lost control of the rabble they so easily roused over the last decade, paving the way for unhinged pricks like Farage and Trump.
Full disclosure: Before I had kids, I thought those kid-leashes were a horrible idea. After my little guy ran off from us (I followed him to see how far he'd go and finally picked him up halfway across the store), we got him a child-leash. It let him wander independently but within reason. We got the occasional dirty look, but more people commenting on how cute he was with his "monkey backpack" on. And it helped keep him safe. I wouldn't demand that all parents use one but they can be useful for some.
Anyone else flash on that scene with the cop in National Lampoon's Vacation?
I'm betting, all told, Google and Linked in pay about $200 in actual taxes and fees to Mountain View proper, for in the US, the bigger the corporation, the less they actually pay to support their physical presence (i.e., 'company town').
A good read on the history behind the creation of the US Federal Reserve is "The Creature From Jekyll Island: A Second Look At The Federal Reserve" by G. Edward Griffin
Honestly after wrapping up Mad Men (finally) and Breaking Bad, I really don't watch much Netflix anymore (and zero regular cable TV which is only still there for the POSSLQ). Just in a holding pattern waiting for new seasons of Jessica Jones, Bojack Horseman (which I have re-watched at least five times), Longmire, and River. Better Call Saul too, I guess, but I really do hate prequels of any sort.
So my activity would be an occasional binge bulge with lots of flat lines in between, but there are fewer bumps as time goes on.
If the FCC had any stones, they would ban any CDMA hardware for 5G that isn't sim card based. Indefensible. The service should be the card, not the whole damn handset. Even an environmental impact argument could be made against Verizon and their locked, proprietary hardware.
It is a remotely-controlled device, jury rigged for a purpose that is not at all its use.
I know people will become uncontrollably outraged about this, but it's a standoff weapon. Just like a spear, a bow and arrow, an explosive tossed through a door or window, a gun, or even a vehicle employed as a weapon.
The legal standard for lethal force is the same. Beware of academics or other commentators who will claim this is some kind of new territory for which there is no legal standard and that we have no idea how to approach.
But by all means: pretend this is an "Unprecedented Shift in Policing" instead of an improvisation under nightmarish circumstances.
That is some supreme 'Officer John Law is always right' gymnastics. Hope you didn't pull a hamstring. They didn't blow up the fucking building, so I guess they exercised great restraint.
and the vast majority of whom are most likely sympathetic to the existence of a serious cultural problem that needs to be addressed, and would like to see that problem get better.

As far as I can figure, the rationale for becoming a cop falls into three general categories: 1. "A police officer helped me and my family when I was young, so I wanted to do the same." 2. "Hey, it's one of the few remaining living-wage jobs with benefits." 3. "I get to be a bully to everyone I meet and occasionally execute a minority with the only punishment being a two-week paid vacation."
The problem is, what percentage is number three. Plus, the smaller the force and the Redder the state, that number three percentage rapidly approaches 100%.
I personally know two black guys in my tiny rural town that were pulled over by a cop for some rinky-dink excuse, and the cop quickly called for backup as they were black. Two brittle diabetics in their fifties (one of whom is an Air Force vet) that have difficulty even walking required these Barneys to 'go heavy'.
Their family later joked the cops had pulled over 'Two Canes'. They could joke about it, because they miraculously didn't get shot.
"One year of free credit monitoring" is the corporate equivalent to the "Thoughts and Prayers" fecal spray from gutless politicians after every gun-driven US mass murder.

I couldn't find anything in that article, but I'm guessing for the sake of weight and simplicity, it does not have a regenerative braking system.
The end of the run might be as exciting as the start.

So who gets the mineral rights? Or is this like Milo Minderbinder: 'we all get a share'?

He was fabulous in Twelve Angry Men Inside Amy Schumer. Nice out take at the end too.

I would suggest "Half Pregnant" as a replacement.

Let the FBI/GOP show you how to destroy the free Internet first, then you can just easily apply that template.
