Comcast X1 has Netflix. Everyone else scrambling to catch up.
What will really distinguish the X1 over the Sling box will be the absence of recurring monthly charges and the presence of world class Comcast service.
Unemployment numbers are a bit worse off today than they were when Obama took office, regardless of which measure you look at. So Obama didn't really "fix" anything.
Except that Obama didn't begin his presidency in a vacuum, he had to counteract the employment trend left by the preceding administration. If you look at U3 and U6 (the latter of which includes "marginally attached workers and those working part-time for economic reasons"), you can see they have both steadily declined during Obama's presidency.
I have bought items, been spammed and subsequently used the above documented method to opt out of the marketing mails. End result: no more marketing spam emails. Have you tried it? Is it possible that Amazon's help desk gave you incorrect information, and that their own help page provides the solution to your problem? It's not a matter of asking someone to remove you from the marketing list, it's a setting.
These people are spammers, and I have specifically and repeatedly said I want off the marketing list.
Did you Google "stop amazon marketing email"? Did you find this page, which tells you how to unsubscribe from Amazon marketing e-mails? To save you a click:
Amazon knows about all the cash-for-review services, and they monitor those sites. It wouldn't take long to show a trend that one reviewer is predominantly buying and reviewing products that are being promoted by one of those services.
It works the other way around. The reviewer advertises their service on Fiverr, and the vendor contacts them for a review.
Now we just need to figure out how they photoshopped NASA photos to show a million square miles of open ocean where there use to be arctic ice. The obvious explanation is that NASA is in on the hoax.
Google "autopilot definition". It'll lead you here:
Check other dictionaries and you'll find:
"a device that steers a ship, aircraft, or spacecraft in place of a person" (m-w.com)
"automatic pilot" (https://ahdictionary.com)
"a device that keeps aircraft, spacecraft, and ships moving in a particular direction without human involvement" (dictionary.cambridge.org)
More importantly, many lay people assume "automatic" means "without human intervention," hence it might be more suitable to use a name that proactively implies human monitoring and intervention, such as "driver assist." Why is Tesla so committed to sticking to this term if it isn't for the incorrect aura of computer automation?
I pay for Google services with my data. I pay for telecom services with dollars. You don't get both, and in fact, when I pay for enterprise services from Google, I pay in dollars instead of data.
No. Nixon was neither convicted nor impeached when he was pardoned by Ford. Ford wanted to preempt any prosecution.
In fact the very point was debated at the Constitutional Convention of 1787, and the side lobbying for pardons to be permitted before conviction won the argument. This was affirmed in 1867 by the Supreme Court in Ex parte Garland.
Okay, spoofed phone numbers, threats, social engineering, but...
... the call centers would instruct them to go to banks or ATMs to withdraw money, use the funds to purchase prepaid stored value cards from retail stores, and then provide the unique serial number to the caller.
Consistently lost in the discussion of protecting hotel trade or preserving housing stock is the negative affect Airbnb has on neighborhoods. People buy houses in residential neighborhoods to enjoy the benefits of... residential neighborhoods. Introducing an unknown, transient stream of tourists and other visitors into stable neighborhoods is generally a net-negative for the neighbors. Airbnb allows individuals to unilaterally monetize the peace and safety of their neighbors. That is the problem with Airbnb.
If Comcast is so worried about Google touching their junk, why not legislate an aggressive SLA that requires Comcast to respond to Google's requests in a specified period of time, after which Google can go ahead without Comcast's assistance?

Equity is the biggest scam there is
If you work for someone trustworthy, equity is a gamble that can pay of bigly. Particularly ISOs subject to an 83(b) election.
Death wins every year.
Remember, they've already used this feature to remotely disable a Tesla of an owner that posted a negative tweet about Elon Musk.
I don't remember that. I remember Elon Musk canceling a blogger's order. Was there a separate incident in which an owner's car was disabled?

This is why your legal department nags you about using "free" services with which your company doesn't have an enterprise contract.

Has anything happened this year that hasn't been an unmitigated disaster?
Cubs win world series.
The jobs will be filled by Russian chatbots.
It's gonna die whether anyone wants it to or not.
Deader than LP's in England, no doubt. ;)
Phones with headphone jacks will be purchased as Christmas presents for recipients who do not own plug-in earphones.
Good to know they're personalizing the commercials that I mute and look away from.

You mean like how he gave Carrier $7M in tax breaks and now they're building a factory for the 1300 jobs they shipped south of the border?
President-elect Trump was quite clear:
Companies are not going to leave the United States anymore without consequences. Not gonna happen. It's not gonna happen.
So if you think you're going to skedaddle without the government offering you money to stay, you have another think coming. Consequences.

If you're worried about that, the news that Microsoft is sharing telemetry data with third parties might concern you.
I'm worried about this, but not concerned, because my worry motivated me to drop Microsoft entirely.

Technically, the silent not-even-a-plurality. Clinton won the popular vote, and neither got a majority!

The obvious explanation is Stalin's photo lab.
