i played with zip car a few years back. not only is it more expensive than owning a car, but a lot of locations run out of inventory a lot of times. especially in the summer when it's beach weather. like every company they have things like return on assets to think about and cars sitting around not being rented cost them money
unless these people buy enough cars for peak demand and somehow drop the price i don't see people dumping their own cars
every major bank card in the USA does this for people who want to ship stuff to friends and family with no fraud alerts. it just puts the customer on the hook for any fraud purchases made online and shipped to that address
encrypt stuff with every possible key, look for some kind of common signature or order in the data and make an algorithm to break it using the possible keys
10 years ago Verizon was selling data plan with per Kb charges. I think it was a nickel per kilobyte.
5G they will probably figure out how to cram more devices per tower and wireless will turn into the next home internet. the issue now is that at peak times my AT&T is virtually useless. i live close to a major road in NYC and during rush hour everyone is probably streaming music in their car
NYC has some tabloids, but decades ago there were a lot more of them around the USA. people would buy two newspapers a day and the tabloids would compete with the more outrageous covers to get a sale.
Same with blogs. take some story someone wrote, put a click bait spin and title on it and then post the links around the internet and share them out on social media. if you follow tech then you know all about BGR and Ars Technica and the crap they post
happened in the USA. in the 1870's the irish and italians among others came here. culture blended. people in europe complaining are like the tea baggers here in the USA
except that insurance is not about being dumb to save money and having someone else pay for it. and it's not like you're going to pay the bill of tens of thousands of $$$ all by yourself
this or they are simply going after the fleet market. back in the day they used to make mint selling cars to governments and corporations in bulk and without going through dealers. this is nothing different.
and only the most naive dummies will believe that in the future no one will own cars and people will rent everything. i've tried zip car one time. way too expensive. same with uber and lyft. it's only good for dummy 20 somethings who never have time for the boring parts of life and only want to watch netflix and go out party with friends
no one is going to make HDR content if there aren't any devices to watch it
same with HD almost 20 years ago. the first HD TV's came out in the late 90's. the big adoption didn't start until around 2002 or 2003 when they fell to $3000 or so for a 40" unit and in the mid 2000's is when the big push of HD content came out
where is this at? every doctors office will do a CBC test and you will get a report with two dozen or so line items and numbers along with acceptable ranges
yes i was and i remember all the marketing crap around then and all the toys. Lucas created the modern blockbuster and the marketing and product tie ins around it. i was in 4th grade when ROTJ came out and it was the same as it is today. toys, junk food and all other kinds of branded products

people will just get cash jobs on the side and show the minimum income where they can't take your money because you need it for basic survival
let me know how it works out when you can't get a car at peak demand times or when the rent a car model costs more than owning your own car
when you pay off a home and kick the kids out, you have a lot of free money to blow on something

they could do this, but it will cost Netflix more money to send more content over backbone networks than locally

that's what the US is doing
in theory you can make a lot of stuff around the city flammable by dumping grease on it
when i'm sitting next to her at night with this thing on?
i thought their only purpose was so that your home insurance company will cover your home

NULL has it's own set of issues like you can't index it because it's not zero, it's not nothing or blank, it's literally unknown
Gracenote was an accident. no way it can happen again

where can't you get high speed connections? NYC and LA are up to 300mbps and higher for time warner. other markets as well.
beg for CPU time and be happy when the admins throw you a little bone just like back in the 70's
no stupid, but lots of other people created a lot of other characters and copyrights didn't seem to stop them.

so how do you explain all the other children's characters created in the last 100 years? Mickey isn't even that popular anymore
