Are you saying newish cable ready TVs can't decode digital signals? OTA has been digital for a long while now and my six year old Samsung has no probems with it.
There was a steady stream of traffic going into and out of the Spectrum cable office in St. Matthews Thursday afternoon. Sekou Davis had his arms full of electronic equipment, including a phone modem and a DVR box. He was turning it all in, and cutting the cord after more than 20 years with cable.
“For one, the cost of the service, and, two, just the quality,” said Davis.
Davis says Spectrum's latest change is the last straw. The company is encrypting, or scrambling, its signal in Louisville. It means customers must now have cable boxes for every TV set. They can no long plug cable-ready TV sets directly into a cable outlet.
To be fair, the boxes will be free, at least for a while.
Spectrum is offering customers two free boxes for two years, and five free years for customers on Medicaid. After that, it will cost $5.99 a month for each box.
I'm not blowing off global climate change, but when a person goes into vfib, you concentrate on convertating him normal sinus rhythm. What caused the dysrhythmia in the first place can be researched later.
So you'd rather have the infinitely easier problem to remedy of providing electricity to everyone be put on the back burner in order further some political goal of yours? Tell me, just how many people would you have die to further your agenda?
First and foremost, the US is a nation of States, not a People's Republic. To be clear, I was dumbfounded when Trump won the election. I still can't believe people could be so stupid as to elect someone whose positions are so opposed to the welfare of the vast majority of Americans. Still, his opponent was Hillary, probably the only candidate he could have beat.
No need for a bread maker. I bake my own sourdough loaves weekly with starter I made years ago and keep fresh in the fridge. The process is so easy I call it "the lazy man hobby".
Step One: Pull starter out of fridge.
Step Two: Mix 50 grams of starter with 150 grams each of water and flour in a clean container and set aside until it bubbles. Stir is down and place in back in fridge.
Step Three: Place the rest of the starter in a clean bowl, mix in 450 grams of flour, 10 grams of salt, and 250 grams of water.
Step Four: Let sit for an hour or so.
Step Five: Shape into a ball.
Step Six: Let sit until doubled in size.
Step Seven: Knock the dough down, place in baking pan and let sit until doubled in size again.
Step Eight: Bake at 450F for 50 minutes or until internal temp reaches 210F.
That may very well be all Nokia ends up as. Before Microsoft destroyed them, Nokia made the best cellphones in the world, culminating with the N900. Mine is still working by the way, and I still amaze people when I demonstrate what a truly pocket computing device can be.
So despite their being responsible for the protection of life and property around the clock night shift workers are considered statistical out layers? I'm finding myself strangely sympathetic to those who use the term little "snowflake" right now despite my strong left leaning political view right this moment.
Almost all these studies are biased towards people who are able to sleep at night and work during the day. Many, many of us are are needed to do the opposite, work at night and sleep during the day. People don't get sick according to circadian rhythms after all. When you need care, you need care no matter where the sun is in the sky.
Perhaps the answer is to increase what constitutes a basic education? My understanding is there was a time when a High School eduction wasn't free. Perhaps now a Bachelor's should become the new basic education?
The closer I get to retirement, the more I consider taking economics courses. Maybe then I will understand how people can profit when nobody is able to purchase their goods and services.

Forgive my ignorance then, I cut the cord over a decade ago and didn't realize things have gotten even worse when it comes to cable.

Well isn't that generous of them.

Since humanity has the power to alter climate on a global scale, fixing it locally should be childs play.

Education such as providing enough electricity to everyone needing air conditioning, is that the education you are referring to?
...up to 25 percent in of India's population still has no access to electricity.
Fix this issue and your problem will be solved.
So it's not quite equal to emacs yet?
...be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.

Peaceful protest accomplishes little if anything.
Are you saying violence is an acceptable form of protest?
Violence has been a part of American politics since the Boston Massacre. Our nation was founded on violent protest.

I've been protesting against Windows since 1995.

Obviously because people of color work harder and longer.

All it would take is a providing a few fixes for an OS they heralded as the best less than a decade ago.
(she won the popular vote, so most people agree she deserves it)
As much as I detest Trump this shows a clear lack of understanding of how are government works. We are a union of States, not a people's republic.
The grabbing of the thigh I can see as warranting punishment. All the others in your post I don't unless simply asking a woman for sex is a crime.
Only counts if you make a profit. That is the American way after all!
Sorry, I thought we were discussing human economics here. If a human can't purchase a thing, then that thing has no value.
