Now under the Netflix contract they will still be able to sell those digital downloads while providing streaming content to Netflix. So the deal with Netflix is relatively “sugar coated” and will allow Dreamworks to keep profiting off their content.
That would only be true if the contract is for one year, or the 30mil per movie is a yearly cost. Who knows how many years this deal is for a 5 year deal drops the cost significantly.
Netflix has 25 million subscribers, little more then a dollar per subscriber per movie isn't all that bad once you consider $96 per subscriber per year and this is probably a multi-year deal so the cost is 0.30-0.40 per person per movie. The real news is that they lost Starz so their digital library will take a serious hit so instead of bolstering their library it is shrinking.
The day I purchased my car I disabled my onstar on the lot, I don't need it and thought of all the privacy concerns about having it on. The few benefits of having the system never outweighed my privacy concerns there are three cables that need to be disconnected the wiring harness, cell antenna, and gps antenna. I always figured if I could do it in less then a minute a criminal could as well.
Forcing manufactures to to lock their software in? I know antitrust enforcement is shaky in the US but I doubt even Micro$oft has made enough donations for this to be swept under the rug. As this has yet to be implemented it is merely speculation as to how this feature can be disabled to allow other OS's and if it is implemented the way you and your tin foil hat buddies are saying the informed crowed will steer the masses away from 8 and Microsoft will have another Vista on their hands.
In the type of asymmetric warfare we are engaged in today robots may not be very effective especially at their current intelligence. Using a gun caries great responsibility and attaching one to a robot and having it make intelligent life and death decisions is something that is far off. I hope by the time we automate killing that we will have fixed most of the problems that cause us to go to war.
How many of today's games will get replayed as much as the good old games. Back in my day games were designed to be played for hours and were still enjoyable after you beat them because the levels were hard even if you knew what to do. These games today are weak and once you figure out a trick to beat the bosses or look up how to beat them they are boring and the "good" ones with online play won't be very enjoyable in 10 years when no one plays them. And one more thing get off my lawn.
remember the executive branch ENFORCES the laws that Congress passes
I was under the impression that the executive branch ignored the laws that Congress passes. That and the constitution.
It's not just the executive branch that ignores the constitution, the constitution takes a beating from all 3 branches. The executive branch is allowed to ignore laws (not enforce) that is the reason so many dumb laws stay on the books they simply are not enforced as is the right of the executive branch.
If the merger fails T-mobile will receive some of AT&T's spectrum. If I knew the merger would happen I would make sure to renew with a highly subsidized phone and once AT&T changed the terms I'm out of my contract with a brand new phone for the cost of a month or two of service.
Whoosh
He is simply saying science is allowing the unfit to survive. Think Darwin award types who survived their dumb decisions because of modern medicine.
A 5th grader shouldn't be making the choice of weather they go to school or not it should be their parents. If their parents or more likely parent can't motivate them to go to school and not be disruptive then do everyone else in the school a favor and remove them permanently. There is no reason to drag everyone else down for the sake of one unwilling participant.
But then isn't the TA saying what the student was thinking which according to you is impossible, the best the TA can do is think what the student may have been trying to convey. This might be why literary analysis can't be takes seriously, why would the opinions of other critics be any more valid, it seems what this class is really teaching is conformity.
Not just spamming through email, unauthorized access to 500,000 accounts, then spamming their walls. Those are 3 different crimes I assume the accessing 500,000 accounts is most of this sentence. The 17 years is the sum of those three acts.
Every time I hear about the republican party becoming the party of racists I know that the person was not a close observer of history,Republicans pushed many on the civil rights acts and only the 1964 act which some objected to because it had the government telling private business who to hire, even then the majority of republicans voted for the passage. The Ignorant say the shift happened with Nixon and the southern strategy, Nixon was has huge civil rights supporter and member of the NAACP while his opponent JFK was not, Nixon broke up unions because of their discrimination policies and even enacted the first affirmative action policies so racist southerns decided to vote for a republican who was heavily in favor of civil rights? Then came Jimmy Carter mysteriously all the racist white southerners disappeared he won the south, then Regan won the south and once again the the racists white southerners were republicans, then came Clinton who won the southern vote, followed by Bush and the southern racist white republicans won the south. Obama was the first democrat in a long while to not take the south and win the presidency, unless you contend that the racists southerners didn't start voting republican till 2000 your argument falls apart pretty quick. Here are a few Dixicrats that folded back into the democrat party that played a prominent role in the party for some time Richard Russell, Mendell Rivers, Clinton's mentor William Fulbright, Robert Byrd, Fritz Hollings and Al Gore Sr. It's time to realize that your skewed view of the south is ignorant the south is not filled with dumb racist white Republicans who hate Obama because he is black.
Last I checked lots of different races live in the city too and many have the same economic problems so maybe you should stop your prejudices that cities are filled with poor blacks in crime riddled neighborhoods. Actually race has little to do with success, the biggest factor in graduation rates, college admission, suicide rates, and crime, is if that child came from a single parent household. I read one study that when single parenthood was corrected for the crime rates of blacks and whites were almost the same so race is not a problem. You're injecting race where it doesn't belong instead of saying it's an economic problem you're making it a race problem, you are making race deciding a factor in prosperity which is just as ignorant as the morons wearing white robes.
I am a conservative and this is how I and many conservatives like me think.
Making a deal about race is what got the US into the mess in the first place and to fix it we are going to focus on race? Race plays too big of a role in the American conscience and in order to fix our problem we need to make this a "nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin but by the content of their character".
Man in the middle attacks are still possible, SSL MITM attacks are possible so how could this be any more air tight. I liken this security to a bullet proof vest it will stop the small arms but when when the big guns get brought out the vest has no chance.
Racism by definition is "Believing that one race is superior to all others". Stereotypes are not racism as they can be negative or positive, they are generalizations made about a group based on encounters with a few. I don't think the English are inferior because they have bad teeth, or Irish because they have fiery tempers and drink allot, or the Italians for being plumbers and jumping on mushrooms.
As for TFA, how is this not blackmail? It seems like a textbook definition to me. I just don't see how they aren't adding their own mugshot to the list with a stunt THIS brazen. After all this isn't like some neighborhood watch website where they are informing people there may be someone dangerous in their midst, no these guys set this thing up to get paid to make it go away. But then again I thought Yelp should have been busted for their "make bad reviews go bye bye, just shell out $$$" stunt.
The information is all ready public it can not be blackmail all this guy did was make it easier to find. Only people who were charged and not convicted could make any reasonable claim that this is blackmail.

How did you come up with that number? Do you think the 30 mill is a monthly rate?
That would only be true if the contract is for one year, or the 30mil per movie is a yearly cost. Who knows how many years this deal is for a 5 year deal drops the cost significantly.
This is not an exclusivity deal so Dreamworks can sell digital content to others as well.
Netflix has 25 million subscribers, little more then a dollar per subscriber per movie isn't all that bad once you consider $96 per subscriber per year and this is probably a multi-year deal so the cost is 0.30-0.40 per person per movie.

why would you need antenna blockers Onstar is notoriously easy to disable.

Unfortunately there is tons of prior art all ready out there.

The press conference is in Washington so EDT seems more correct, so when interesting shit starts happening in London we'll use GMT.
