If you are a cable company in the US then you care a lot about people stealing your product. And while by law they have to distribute the free to air channels (maybe 10 or so channels) via cable for a nominal fee ($15/mo in my case - which represents the entry cost into getting cable TV), my provider (Comcast) only does that in SD. If I want to see those channels in HD I need to either sell my soul to Comcast or have a CableCard enabled device. I could theoretically get HD over the air, but my local geography is such that I wouldn't get decent reception from the transmitters.
I guess you consider the "Basic Digital" to be selling your soul.
I'm on Comcast and I don't have any CableCard or Comcast boxes. I just plug in my EyeTV and get the regular networks ABC, NBC, CBS, Fox, PBS, CW and various independent feeds in HD. Only the cable networks are in SD.
If you want to question lawns, question the people who think they need two acres of weed-free lawn that they are unlikely to step on outside of mowing it.
In LA, they hire an illegal from Mexico to mow it.
The food industry experiments on you all the time just for profit. Go try to find bread in the store that doesn't have chemically altered high fructose corn syrup in it.
Not to mention the doctors becoming drug pushers for the drug companies.

Why, it's almost as if they were acting like immature twerps and that Jedi is not actually a real religion.
There's a "real" religion?
The US isn't all that bad.
And lots of lead paint.
It's almost like the corrupt corporations are in league with the government.
The corporations ARE the government.
Schwartz dug the hole.
Ok, your terms are acceptable. See ya.
Yup. If they have any content that's really notable, it will appear on other sites anyway.
You should _not even have to_ ask yourself this question - healthcare should never put such responsibility into an affected person's hand!
How about the question when keeping someone "alive" is really about greed and not value of life for the patient?

Maybe the route some universities have taken of fines and downtime for those caught spreading malware or spam, knowingly or not, is what we need.
Or just ban Windows.
Bingo. Even if they THINK they anonymized the samples, it doesn't mean they did a particularly good job of it.
They used the highest quality white out on the computer screen.
Times have changed since then.
Have they changed? Or is it just more mainstream?

The list goes on. All without your consent.
Project Dynasoar was nearly complete when they canceled it. It is probably they way we should have been going into LEO.
Coincidentally, the Air Force is getting ready to launch a vehicle to orbit which could be considered in many ways a spiritual successor to Dyna-Soar.
They likely are going to space today already.
How long has it been since the Air Force used the shuttle for a mission? A long time ago.
And the M$ DOS scripts?
Perhaps I don't understand you right, but when did Apple refuse to allow anyone to develop software for their PC's?
Pascal was easy!
That a bunch of gamers got together and raised 1.7M dollars for charity...
By smuggling drugs or weapons?
I still can't wait for Verizon FIOS to be available in my neighborhood.
I keep hearing people say they are waiting for this... Does it actually exist?
He is almost as wide as the podium. He is a whale.
...and mistook him for Michael Moore.
Or a whale.
Awesomely fat.
He is really wide... He easily takes up 2 plane seats.
