I buy music from iTunes, burn it to CD, rip it to MP3, press a vinyl, scan the vinyl at 1200dpi, fax the scan to myself, save it in JPEG at 20% quality, use software to reconstruct the audio and record the end result to cassette tape.
Sometimes I don't even notice if it's the cassette tape playing or if I'm just listening to an empty AM/FM channel.
Unless all you're planning to do is steal their audience, it won't happen. Stop pandering the same audience over and over again. You need something different to grab the people who still don't have Netflix/Amazon Video/HBO Now/etc or who will subscribe to a second or third streaming service.
Right now, there is a serious lack of real/good science-fiction series. The 100 is good but while it started out as science-fiction, it sort of derailed into a game of thrones clone. What next? A planet of the apes tv show reboot?
If you don't want to take risks there's plenty of good, well-known science-fiction titles that could probably make a good tv show: Terminator (pick it up where The Sarah Connor Chronicles dropped the ball, it seems the show got cancelled just as it was beginning to be interesting), Predator (not purely science-fiction, but hey, it's a known title), Aliens (plenty of spaceships and colonies to be infested), etc.
At this point, I wouldn't be surprised to see a reboot of Knight Rider done with a Google Maps car, a Tesla or something.
Hell, talk to Valve and get the rights to make a TV show from Half-Life/Portal. GlaDOS is the perfect vilain you kinda root for, in secret. She's like a Bond vilain from the old movies.
What about a comedy spy tv show? Make a show with the worst spies possible, something similar to Johnny English or Frank Drebin.
ANYTHING except another fucking show with kings, swords and shitty politics and shit like that.
J.J. Abrams ruined both Star Wars and Star Trek. Let's make it a trifecta and also ruin LotR.

Most professional StarCraft players can't make more than a few hundred moves a minute.
Unless we're talking about just clicking non-stop to make your groups move a few pixels at a time, I'm pretty sure I can't manage more than a dozen moves or so per minute.
I'm sorry to tell you, but they won't. They're too busy inventing new digital watches and largely concerned with the movement of small green pieces of paper.
What if your TVs ran fine when you bought them, and that single firmware update was the beginning of a series of problems that are never going to be fixed?

When something uses "satellite" and "destroyed" in the same sentence, I think about orbital nukes.
South Park did it.
Look, just because it took five episodes to build up to a fight scene that lasted seven episodes is no reason to hate on DBZ.
That explains everything Star Trek-related released after 2005.
HBO has Game of Thrones? Alright.

Yeah! Canada!

Probably the most popular RTS game right now. It's also pretty well balanced between playable races as I understand it.
And you'll notice the problem 31 days after installing the new firmware.

I'm happy to know that after almost three decades of hard work, we finally saved the end zone layer.
I can't believe it's not butter.
A sample of a dozen rich people doing things like this doesn't mean all rich people do it.
Using a roughly standard seven inches per step, how many steps to reach space?
Jeff Bezos just bought 145K Bitcoins.
There should be no difference between the printed Washington Post and the online Washington Post.
Ah yes, we call it "Chef Mike" (a.k.a. "Mike-rowave")

Dude, look at his fucking username. There's four positives in it.
To further expand on this: "fuck that, fuck you, fuck this, this is bullshit."
Of course not. I fill it up, drive 5km and then I park somewhere and I call a taxi.
That's cruel. I let mine roam free in my backyard.
And how do you compile PHP, HTML, CSS and Javascript into a cross-platform application?
