Where is your example of this? Disney used to be a paid premium channel on cable. Now there are several Disney channels in the basic cable package. That shows a willingness to accept less from each sub in order to get a greater total profit. Literally the opposite of squeezing every drop out of a smaller segment of the market.
People will swap streaming services upon a regular basis, as none of them will end up with sufficient content, ignoring all the filler crap no one watches, people will not pay for multiple services, they will simply swap on a quarterly or half yearly basis, depending upon how many they want to go with.
You clearly underestimate both my laziness and my capacity to forget what I pay for things collectively.
Consent for recording doesn't apply to children. Or do you think parents get their infants consent to baby monitors? In this case parental rights have been taken by the state (as they can and do for many purposes) and the state chooses to record the child. The child doesn't need to provide consent because the child does not have legal autonomy.
It only kicks the bucket down the road, not a complete circumvention. The Tesla fleet is already zero emissions, so unless Tesla suddenly starts selling much better than FCA in Europe (which is possible) this merger was a one time benefit. FCA will still need to improve their own fleet to continue progressing.
Would be easier to put up UVC lighting for occasional sterilization, or shut off a room and turn on an ozone generator for a bit and wait for it to break down to acceptable levels before going back in.
I would argue that any software standard not tied to actual routing of packets has no authoritative source. God didn't dictate ownership of "HTML", and whoever can convince the most people to use their standard wins by default. Crying about it won't help, they can and will say "Nanny nanny boo boo, stick your head in doo-doo".
So the owners of this cable can't route their information over the other existing cables if needed? If so, it's still redundancy for them, and they represent a significant percentage of the data flowing between countries.
You're information is half a decade out of date. Did you perhaps get it from a Texas textbook?
Two things have significantly dimished the state's influence on textbooks. The first (smaller) influence is that they voted in 2013 or 2014 to allow individual school districts to choose and purchase their own books. The second, is that they banned common-core, so the 45 states that went with common-core will not be using the books made for the Texas marketplace by default.
It's crazy that buying the soundtrack to a movie often costs more than the movie.
It is, and it isn't. From the cost to produce perspective it's crazy if an album costs 1/100th of a films cost but is sold for more.
That said, from a value to consumer perspective it makes more sense. How often do you watch a movie. Most movies I watch once or twice, and movies I really really enjoy maybe once a year.
But music I enjoy? Hundreds of times, thousands, more over a lifetime?
What are you gabbing about. There are no EU laws that restrict Europeans from accessing services outside of their political domain, and no laws forcing outside companies/people to provide services inside of the EU.
If you meant to say laws requiring EU based companies to keep servers inside the EU, then you may have a point. Except the logical extension of the parent posts position about moving the servers would be to remove the associated services from falling under their EU subsidiaries. If you tried to force google EU to host youtube servers in the EU they would just respond "we don't own or operate youtube".
Of course there is very little chance this would happen, but it's possible.
Yes, every armchair network engineer or wannabe professional twitch streamer has shared their "expertise" on the issue and compared it to 10 year old OnLive service that had two regional data-centers for the entire US.
Meanwhile, pretty much everyone who tried the open beta (myself included) had a good experience.
On my 25mbit connection I was getting very good results, with occasional (maybe once per hour or two) hiccups when my AC would kick on which causes momentary issues with my wifi.
On my connection I was getting 12-17ms ping to their servers, I don't know how long it took them to encode the video but realizing that it is a constant bitrate hardware based encoding it is likely very little. You can buy commercial H.264 1080P60 encoders that claim sub 10ms latency (I have used encoders from Antrica at my workplace that spec google (half my ping time, so 8ms) + "interpreting commands" (0 since its the same if played local) + encode time (10ms) + return trip time (8ms) = 26ms.
If you think 26ms of additional lag,vs playing on a local machine is "unplayable", you are an idiot..
That $6k has to be a typo. If they have 97 members paying $44.95 a month, then they were making over $4k a month (at least at the time they were caught). So even if the other 3900 members never paid anything, two months should have put them at a higher number.
Probably ought to let some outside of the government agencies examine samples. Since we keep finding out moon rocks given to other countries end up being terrestrial. To keep from giving more ammo to the conspiracists.
Given your UID you should be old enough to have developed some critical thinking skills.
There are tons of legitimate reasons to attack President Trumps actions and policies, but "calling on Russia to hack Clinton" isn't one of them.
That was absolutely meant to be tongue-in-cheek, and was legitimately funny to many conservatives who shared the view that the mysterious disappearance of 35k emails from the Clinton servers was intentional obstruction of justice rather than some harmless accident.
So I agree with your analysis, but will point out that you are incorrect about the argument regarding citizenship. The argument was not whether or not president Obama was a citizen (as you mention, mother was a citizen so there is no argument). The argument was over the definition of "natural born" citizen (whether that requires you to be born in US territory, or to two US parents, etc). I don't think the argument has any merit, but it is a different argument than whether or not he is a citizen due to his mothers citizenship.
That's a false equivalence and it's amazing you found 4 idiots with mod points to support you.
You are claiming that personal taxes have no exemptions for costs. If you itemize you basically turn that income number into a profit number by removing your expenses (travel, tools, work materials, costs). If you rent your house or sell your guitar or anything you deduct the cost. Even if you can work from home and have zero costs whatsoever, meaning your income is 100% profit, you are still given a "standard deduction".
That is literally the opposite of what happened. They couldn't direcly sell vehicles at their stores in some places because of the "dealership model" which is why their "stores" only let you test drive and tell you about the car. You then have to buy the car online anyways. You CANNOT hand anyone at the store a bag of cash and drive away with a car.
How do you get scammed at CarMax? They are relatively expensive, but they don't haggle so you know exactly what the car costs up front.
No BS dealership telling you one cost, then changing that because they were mistaken about the number of discounts you qualify for (oh sorry, we thought you were an active duty kindergarden teacher with only 1 leg, our mistake), or requiring you to fist fight the finance guy over addons (warranty, undercoating, whatever) and how much you are actually paying for the car (you want to pay less, what if I can make it $400 a month for say 136 months?)

Is "Elon" a verb now? Is it a good thing or a bad thing? "You really Elon'd that tweet", or "You Elon'd the shit out of that jet powered go-kart".

Im just going to wait for Disney to buy all of the other studios. Then it will just be DisneyUNIVERSE, BBC, and maybe Netflix.

The child doesn't need to provide consent because the child does not have legal autonomy.
And they're also minors. Here is what Wikipedia has to say about civil liberties and minors.
"As minors by law, children do not have autonomy or the right to make decisions on their own for themselves in any known jurisdiction of the world."
That means the state can step in for the parents (same as CPS can take a child away) and decide what rights the child does or does not have,

That depends on where in LEO. This barely qualified as LEO, was practically in the upper atmosphere.
For an idea of longevity, the very first satellite ever shot into LEO is still there.

Old spec sheets for the PS4 say they are compatible with 4-layer disks, so either 100GB if original Blu Ray format, or 133GB if BDXL.

I agree with you entirely, but people seem to like the DC and Marvel stuff, for the same reason they like McDonald's .
It's safe and familiar, and you know what you're going to get because it's the same every time.
Pretty sure I wasn't expecting to see Jeff Goldblum's birthday sex spaceship in Thor III.
