Someone else made an insightful comment about netflix a while back.
When the movie studios realized Netflix was giving the consumer what they wanted, they demanded a bigger piece of the pie and the Netflix catalog dried up.
Ever since, Netflix they've been filling it with junk documentaries and B-movies.
Netflix abandoned their fancy recommendation algorithm because it was simpler to just recommend based on popular and trending titles. And there's no point recommending something isn't in the catalog. Would you like to see a B-movie that tries to pass itself off as an A movie with cover art?
Google acquired them and has done next to no improvements. Off the top of my head, the only change I can think of is that they removed the ability to record calls placed by you while notifying both parties.
I don't really decry the use of "conversion tactics" such as this in basic training, because otherwise, you end up with situations like those reported in wwII, where in the heat of conflict 60-75% of soldiers avoided firing their weapons because they are still horrified by the idea of killing another human. SLA Marshall, in his book "Men Against Fire:The Problem of Battle Command" (ISBN: 0806132809), brought this issue to the forefront of American military consciousness. Apparently, his study included the term "ratio of fire". He was later revealed to have doctored the results to achieve his desired result: more live-fire training. It worked, and he later stood by his book for its results.
Modern editions of his book include this information in the preface.

It may not be stupid, but it makes American companies less competitive compared to their foreign competitors.
Well when you put it that way ...
it sounds stupid.
How about an upsell. For $4 I can rent it, and if I like it I can buy it for only the $9 difference between rental cost and purchase cost.
So much money left on the table.
I'm not brave enough either, which is why I'm testing in in SandboxIE on windows.
But to your point about it being open source, it seems open source to me.
Is there something in particular that is missing from its github repo that disqualifies it?

what version are you running?
noscript hasn't worked for me for a while.
ublock installs, but umatrix won't.

> Pocket isn't a Mozilla project.
But they have caused the UI to become worse.
Firefox for mobile has a feature called Reading List, https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1123529.
It has been disabled/removed for desktop, presumably because of Pocket integration.

I think the hate flows both ways.
Agreed.
Here's a pretty good youtube video on how much CGI there is in films we don't tend to think of as CGI.
Why CG Sucks (Except It Doesn't) by RocketJump Film School
People tend to get mad about CGI only when they notice it.
Also, many of the CGI movies people dislike just weren't very good movies.
When well used, CGI and practical effects are mixed and melded.
Case in point: mad max fury road, lauded for its practical effects (as seen in linked video above).
yup

All that said, Netflix is the best out there. $7.99 for netflix, or $11.99 for hulu without ads.
I am not aware of any other mainstream competitors for flat-fee all-you-can-view offerings.

> The US has a lot of cops.
Let's not overstate the case.
348 police per 100,000 citizens in the USA.
Just looking at 1st world countries...
Fewer than Spain (533), Greece (491), Italy (465), Belgium (421).
In the same range as Northern Ireland (376), France, Israel, Luxembourg, Netherlands, Austria, Scotland, Germany (296).
More than Ireland (261), New Zealand, Denmark, Norway, Switzerland, Sweden, Canada (202), Japan (197), South Korea (195), Finland (137).

Google Chrome at least has a built-in click to play feature which blocks autoplay for flash.
But it doesn't block for HTML5 (coincidentally? used by Youtube).

"I had many many other adventures on that working week in Japan"
Yup, stories waiting to be told.
Thanks for sharing the first one. Not sure why people are so offended.
what's the original german?
no, it's more like liars who think everyone lies (or "is out for number one"), so they trust no one.
compared to truth tellers who think some people lie and some people don't, so they trust some.
your own mindset colors your view of the world.
...
Someone has to set the educational standards for the entire country. We can't have 50 states marching to a different drummer
...
Pardon my ignorance.
How did we get to the moon in 1969 without a Department of Education to set educational standards for the entire country?
... on not introducing toxic Codes of Conduct that split apart your community and are downright bigoted in order to push a particular agenda ?
Won't have to "make" new developers if you don't chase your existing ones away.
This is obviously something you have followed closely and thought about.
As someone who doesn't use github much and isn't familiar with this particular drama, can you elaborate?
Are you protesting?

Yeah a bit late.
Both House and Senate adjourned on Oct 8, and won't meet again until sometime next January.
The wired story was posted Oct. 6, and links to the text of the bill.
It seems that it and related measures passed both houses of Congress though.
