Then why are the networks unwilling to deal with a local station that presents the same stream as an OTA station, except online?
You just helped invent the Community Sports Program!:)
One person (or a few, for redundancy) in an area agrees to pay for the signal, and reflect it to an Internet server.
This server would be configured like a DVR, so that others could watch as much of the signal as has been transferred; can pause it, rewind it, fast forward (up to present of course), etc.
Yeah, now I'm on a list, you say. Like I wasn't before.:)
My Roku allows me to control it with my Android phone. I expect that other devices and televisions will allow this in the near future. Then, the only remote you'll ever need is already strapped to you, irradiating your genitalia.
Apple does see the value in doing software updates for old models, for as long as the old model has the power to run the new software OK. Their incentive is maintaining the good will of their customers.
As I've posted before when people opine this, Apple has failed me and I now own an Android. Apple pushed the iOS 4 update to my iPhone 3G (not 3GS). This caused it to slow down. Research indicated that others experienced this as well, and deduced that Apple is convincing their users to upgrade. I did upgrade -- just not in the direction they intended.
It is not only my opinion. See Ron Paul, Occupy Wall Street, Tea Party, Federal Reserve, Military Industrial Complex, Star Chamber, Pat Tillman, etc. Specifics: implementing fractional reserve banking, and creating the Euro to bring all the European countries down with one tug.
The only way to stop this is through stronger laws and law enforcement targeting the scrap-metal dealers.
While I agree with this sentiment at the level of the problem that this article states, I'd like to add that it is sad that few of us realize the reality of the situation. Bankers have corrupted our system, leaving it in such a state that citizens need to steal parts of our infrastructure (causing orders of magnitude more damage than they benefit financially) in order to survive.
OT: it's a fortune, not a cookie. (Yes, I know, the origin is "fortune cookie"; however, the term for the text at the bottom of the page is "fortune"; the term for text that you can't see, which the site uses to watch how you visit, that's called a "cookie".)
But if you still look 35 at 100, age discrimination will be gone
Actually? I think it'll be reversed. "You look age 35; how old are you actually?" Those who really are age 35 are stupid children; those who have lived a double-handful of decades know how to survive.
Especially if our trends of statutory (14-18), military (18), drinking (21), and driving-with-lowest-premium (25) ages continue.
But nothing will stop you from getting hit by a bus when you absentmindedly walk into traffic. Or getting killed in an auto accident, which today claims 50k lives per year in the US alone (250k worldwide).
Backups. Backups will stop me from ending my existence when I walk in front of a bus, to see what happens. (Yes, I will also know how to erase all the backups, if I so choose. I'm not trapped.)
So harvest your blood, bone, and skin tissue to your heart's delight. Not a single Catholic or Evangelical will object.
Won't object? I'm certain they'll figure a way to link this behavior to masturbation. Instead of realizing that by suppressing this natural urge to rid the body of testosterone, they have caused many more wars than would otherwise have happened.
They don't need to sell your data to anyoneâ"frankly, it probably runs counter to their own interests if they do. If you've already bought into their platform, they'll try to treat you well so you don't jump ship to some other platform, and that's it.
In my case, this didn't bear out. I had an iPhone 3G (not 3GS), which Apple allowed to be upgraded to iOS 4 (they could have restricted the upgrade). When I upgraded, the phone became unbearably slow. Searching, I found that others had this issue, and most opined that Apple behaved in this manner to "convince" users to upgrade.
This user was convinced; however, now I own an Android device, which is far more functional.
You have to hand it to the actual controllers of things. They operate with a level of mastery that would be beautiful if it weren't so goddamned terrible and dehumanizing.
"Terrible" and "Terrorist" (and "Terror") share a root. I wonder if that's cogent here, especially considering the actor(s).
Yes, we have had this discussion before, and you're still on the losing end. I have never witnessed the abandonment of communication rules to assist communication. Regardless of your "personal rationale".
So I'll bow out now, and give you and your strawmen some privacy.
Sounds a little... painful.
BTW, the current fortune is rather OT to the overall topic: "Soap and education are not as sudden as a massacre, but they are more deadly in the long run. -- Mark Twain"
people who claim code is "self documenting" are generally junior developers
Exactly; the complexity of the solution is dependent on the complexity of the problem. Providing a simpler solution than the problem space, generally results in a solution that has edge cases which fail. We prefer not to fail.

And as far as I can tell, Xbox 360 "apps" have to be games and nothing else.
Is Netflix a "game"?
Agreed; my government is more likely to kill me than any other actor on the planet.

are you really comparing capitalization with sarcasm ?
No. I am comparing your suggestions with your behavior.

The trick is to avoid being said frequent traveler until then.
Have been working on exactly that for about eleven years now. (With two lapses. Hey, you can figure out who I am!)

Yes, sugar is sugar. Something chemically not-exactly-like-sugar is not processed by your body the same way sugar is.
What was that you were saying about pseudo-science?
("First you get the sugar...")
Just be sure you have consent; otherwise, "Better get used to those bars, kid."

Exactly: outside of insanity, the situation is different.
"All? NO ALL!"
then i recommend you to let go of sarcasm.
Says he who refuses to capitalize appropriately!
Yes, we have had this discussion before, and you're still on the losing end. I have never witnessed the abandonment of communication rules to assist communication. Regardless of your "personal rationale".
You're already my Friend; I would Friend you again for that post. It is critically important to view the world as it is, not as one wishes it to be.
So I'll bow out now, and give you and your strawmen some privacy.

Remember this next time you decide that the poor and homeless are just bums who got where they are because of their own failings.
Generally, the poor and homeless are just citizens who got where they are because of the actions of bankers. I agree with your hope.
And I am a state trooper.
In other words, you idiots
That says a lot right there.
