Should be interesting to see if we will see a drop in followers for some of these celebrities. I suppose it would be fraud. Claiming that you have X number of followers to people who pay to have you promote their stuff.
If we can call it "fair", I'd think it is a good idea to have premium and ultra. I would have no use for 4 screens, so making 4 screens a separate tier is good(for me). I don't have 4k so a "standard" with HD and one screen is a good fit for me. But I am still not going to subscribe again. I don't care about any of their shows at the moment.
but we are back to the same old cable tv crap. Subscribe to 5 services to get what we want. The main difference is that it is over IP, on demand and the company names have changed a bit. Not that I expected that it would turn out otherwise.
They are using it to deport migrants lying about being refugees. And I am sure that if you life is on the line, looking at your smart phone can't be a problem.
I always ask my self if the price on gadgets will improve my quality of life more than the amount of work it took to earn that money. I can't possibly see how 700$ + a monthly fee. You can buy a GPS tracker for less than 50$ that plugs into the ODB connector and I can get a SIM card for 4$ a month if tracking is what I want.
Ditto. I subscribed again last month and have just cancelled it again. I didn’t find it interesting. Tried to watch some science style programs but it was crap presented by (semi) celebrities, dumbed massively down and wrapped in fancy graphics. Felt so old school. And all the old shows I would watch for fun and nostalgia are gone. I am back just to watching YouTube.
It's like mandatory "resort fees" in hotels. It's not just 299$, no it's 299$ for the room, 50$ resort fee, 24$ for parking, x$ tourist tax and then taxes on top of that.:D I suppose people just look at the price for what they were looking for and ignore all the mandatory addons.
Facebook and Twitter both liked to "ping" me if I haven't visited them in the last 24 hours. However, once I confirmed that I wanted my account to be deleted, it was the last I heard from them.
I am getting a lot of those and quite frankly, most of them I reallly don’t care if they delete me if I don’t accept because hey are not relevant for me anymore.:)
Well, it's Denmark, so I if they weren't made to last in rain, they would have have a very short lifespan. Last year was nothing but rain. This year shows promise, crossing fingers.
Indeed. I run virtual machines on my QNAP, backups and volume snapshots that takes up space. Then there's all my home videos, 400GB recorded on my last vacation of boring stuff.:D I have no problem filling the 4x8TB drives and the 4*4TB drives. The 4TB drives are WD drives that have run for 5 years now, iirc, the scheduled disk scrubbing havent revealed anything yet on those , but the 2TB drives that were replaced with 8TB because they were starting to get recoverable errors and have been with me since 2 QNAPs ago(but also only been running for 5 years). I get a lot of milage on my drives.:D

I wonder why Tim Cook is so crazy about dongles.

Hey, hey, we're Adobe! The little car that's made out of clay
Sounds like a plan, if gas prices are what matters most to you.

it is just full of twats.
Nope sorry, it is just poor planning.
So lower the price. The cheapest 1080 gtx I can find right now, is still $100 higher than what I paid last summer.

I want to hear more about the "Tesla Manufacturing Operating System".

They have some dragon reporting power there.
But seriously, are we just going to ignore that they got all that user data?
Yes. And since then, everything has gone down the crapper.
Not worried, it has been working flawl fT%ggg

See subject.
I figured that they did that already with a feature like that and that it wasn't just built on a subset of searches in their database.
UHH a GIF!
Gizmodo sucks.
until they stop treating their workers like shit.
