Time's MOTY is so played out. It's now akin to the Rock n' Roll Hall of Fame inductions: really scraping the bottom of the barrel. Citation: when Tom Waits (whom I like a lot) heard he'd been nominated for the RRHOF, he thought it was a joke. It sorta was.
Unless - as in this case - you are a brick and mortar store targeted for Amazonian destruction. In this (refreshing?) case, the user scanning in price comparisons is merely a vector, akin to rats carrying bubonic plague.
Kansas is downstream, and what it gets from Colorado (after suing them for keeping far more water than the compact specified) is less water and more of a slurry containing salts, pesticides, and herbicides after Colorado has passed it through every possible produce farm first.
Oh, and now we're into the bonus round: Uranium from haphazardly-abandoned mines in Colorado is now showing up in the Arkansas River.
Funny we never hear about the success Portugal has enjoyed by legalizing drugs, isn't it? Crime has plummeted and even overdoses and usage rates have dropped, but you'll never hear about it from the money-addicted Jonnny Laws nor the corporate news organs.
Proving the (intentional?) stupidity of fighting a 'war' against the supply side instead of the demand side.
Though it sadly also proves evolution: put ever-increasing 'legal' pressure on the suppliers and all you get is ever-increasingly violent and ruthless survivors.
They all play and or show what is most profitable.
This more than any other reason explains the rise of Idiocracy-style 'reality' shows; you don't need to hire compentent writers; just trawl for the worst examples of humanity and set the voyeur-cams to auto.
The folks who were education majors when I was in college fell into two categories. The much smaller minority were men who were in Ed for one sole reason: they wanted to be coaches (they were all major sportos). The larger group (young women) only wanted to teach kindergarten or early grades for one sole reason: maternal feelings for the cute kiddies; most of them dreaded the thought of teaching in junior or high school.
These attitudes, combined with immorally low pay for the classroom folk (as opposed to fatcat admins), it is little surprise US primary education is screwed with no chance for improvement. It also doesn't help that the right wing is actively trying to destroy it so as to have ever more easily manipulated ignorant people.
of actual decommissioned nuclear power plants. If such a list exists, it would be microscopic in comparison to the list of aging plants given a rubber stamp extension on life just so the owners never have to foot the bill or more accurately not until they bailout with their golden parachutes. This may be more of a US problem, given that corporations are firmly in control of government.
All this is perfectly fine with the DoJ and the FTC as it involves a beloved US cash cow. After all, if the founder didn't have to bother with license plates on his car, why should his corporation have to bother with mere anti-trust issues?

I think: small enough to steal - or at least far more easily to destroy in situ.

I would pony up cold hard cash for a pay-per-view debate between Brian Blessed and Matt Berry. It would either end in a duel or a duet.

you can frak your brains out, but you can only use: water, natural sand, and CO2.
Carrier IQ is all over this already, no doubt.

everyone doesn't use the Swiss Army Knife of media players: VLC. It wouldn't shock me much if that program could make a spreadsheet sing a tune.
That's how Alien started.

Do you want a demographic that delights in pointing they don't watch TV (bonus hipster points: don't even have a TV) to 'fix' it?

No problem. Just repeat your findings into one of their phones: they'll literally get the message via CarrierIQ.
