Just about all my movie and TV needs are met. THings are going out of print on DVD though, and I don't know what I'll do when physical media is no longer a thing.
I've been using Suse/OpenSUSE since 7.2 and it's been great, except for the switch to systemd which was annoying (I now use FreeBSD for web services because of that). It's a really good distribution with a lot of support and packages available and I am glad they are doing well. Once my Win7 support expires I'm switching to them probably for full-time desktop use.
Way way back when, I used to refurbish warranty returns for a major computer retailer. Almost no one wiped their drive before returning their machine. (In addition I amassed a nice music and movie collection of discs left in the drives.) We didn't care much, we would just wipe it and carry on.Sounds like nothing has changed.
Incidentally the variety of failures we encountered was impressive - dropped in oceans, hit by trucks, burnt through with blowtorches, urinated on, smoked to death, shot, infested, in addition to the general component failures.
I haven't had an iPhone since the 3gs but back then you couldn't get apps that would stream music over the cell data network. The Palm Treo I had previously did it just fine, but the Iphone locked it to Itunes only. I couldn't stream music off my server unless on my local wireless network.
It's kinda hard to beat Crashplan Small Business. While the Linux client is a little buggy, I haven't found anything else yet that matches the functionality and storage space for the price.
I've read somewhere you only need 40 digits to calculate the diameter of a circle the size of the observable universe to a precision within the diameter of a hydrogen atom.
It sounds like it's just meant to not allow users to control the radio tranmissions, similar to how in the US the radio device has to be FCC-approved, and you can't for instance boost your CB power to 50 watts. If software allows you to turn your router radio up to 11 (like DD-WRT) does, perhaps it is just that component of it they want to control?
Their DVD service is still well worth it, at least until the studios kill it by refusing to release anything else on physical media, which day I am sure is coming soon.
Once you drop all the default subs and subscribe to what you like, it's just like Usenet but with voting. There are some really epic subreddits, like/r/askhistorians that are really almost a national treasure due to the huge amount of work put in to make it so.
I'm not sure you can say Airbus has a monopoly - a 737 range is only 400 miles or so less than an A220 and it's enormously more flexible in configuration options. There are a lot of them flying transatlantic routes already, New York to Oslo or Dublin it appears.
Back when LG's flagship G4 was released, I got one a few months later and overpaid for it (unlocked) and it was still under $700 I believe. AND it had a removable battery, SD card slot, headphone jack, just about everything I wanted in a phone (except updates from LG). Yes, it did bootloop after a while but LG replaced it and it's been fine ever since.
C/C++ gives you CONTROL. If you don't have enough knowledge to use it properly, use something else. It's as if you can't drive a car, you are probably going to hit a tree. But if you can drive, you have whole areas open up to you for exploration and increases in productivity.
This is the one-touch-make-ready rule which the FCC has actually been trying to push through, to allow competing utilities to move the other's wiring on a pole to run their own. Otherwise the existing utilities can just delay and delay and delay.
I've got one of the Friendly Robotics/Toro iMow robotic mowers. It's actually pretty awesome once set up correctly, and you're not sending into waist-high grass. After all this time it's got a high battery draw problem I need to figure out but it has lasted considerably longer than I thought it would.
I've had VOIP via Google for years, both on a laptop and with a regular old phone on an Obi box. Do they just mean they're adding this functionality to the mobile application?
Roku 3 here, with pihole on the network so the ads don't show. Not sure yet who else it talks to but it's a nice little device and I especially like the headphone jack in the remote.

Things like allowing Google to have more fingers in your email pie.

for backups, that is. I don't know about collaboration or file syncing except Nextcloud which is awesome.

edit: i may mean accuracy, not precision.

It seems to me from this experiment they will learn a whole lot more about how to preserve cells for a long period of time than how to reawaken them.

As a note the highest speed limit in the US is actually 85 mph /137 km/h.

Reddit is an echo chamber and if you repeat something often enough and have a decent sense of comedic timing it becomes an Internet meme.
This sounds like it is just a ledger method to keep track of balance transfers within the business, so not really a currency at all.

These do look nice AND they have an SD card slot. No removable battery I guess. Any drawbacks that you have found?

It's one of the first thing I reset file associations for. So I don't care about their metadata.
