At exactly that point my sub will end... Actually no First I will write a sternly worded letter about why they shouldn't and if they don't concede then my sub will end.
All they have to do is ask hulu how much ive ever paid them.
Yeah thats why netflix and such have become so popular they let you watch what you want when you want.
The cable co is limited by their equipment so the very best you could hope for is being able to pay for just the channels you actually want anything better you have to turn to the net.
Also the price on digital seasons of old shows is ridiculous the physical copies don't cost 1/4th that much.
Yeah syfy was going down hill before but the name change really pointed it out ghosthunters ghosthunters and guess what? More ghosthunters!!
That's nice one less thing for us or future generations to worry about as even 1 trillion years qualifies as effectively forever.
Lets get back to things with reasonable deadlines like that pole flip every 250,000 years or so or the large solar flares that hit every 150 years or so or global warming which promises to be a serious pita within the next 100 years or so or more practical deadlines like paying your water/sewer/electric/cellphone bill. They are typically due monthly so best to keep an eye on those.
It's not as bad as windows 8 or vista but windows 7 is still better in ease of use. Windows 10 start; It at least kinda resembles a start menu even if it doesn't actually function as one.
Just fyi there was a time when apple did not allow apps to use the camera flash as a flashlight. They said it was a inappropriate use of hardware. Years ago now but some of us still remember. http://www.engadget.com/2010/0...
Maybe they should do what we the customer's have been begging them to do for years!
Its simple its called à la carte. It means you sell us the channels we actually effing want! we don't care if you say the extra 30 home shopping channels are free we don't want them!
And maybe you could do something about the %50 advertising %50 show problem. I don't know how I ever put up with it now after using netflix for over a year.
No I don't care how much it costs for you to do this. You are either going to do this or you are going to be left behind kind of like att is with their landline POTS service.
Yep. I have seen some of the led grow light setups for sale online i assume that's what they are using.
However I would have preferred to see a picture of the lettuce under a more natural light as under that pink light it looks a blackish pink as well as being hard to see.
It looks like one of those black snake fireworks if they were pink.
Lets say I have a website about cats. lets say it gets 1m views a day I put a banner ad up at the top that gives people seizures that should pay 1k/mo for 1m views The addition of advertising to my website causes my daily view count to drop to about 800k So now it only pays 800/mo. this still pays for server maintenance and bandwidth. But I want a new Dice bobble head doll so I add a bunch of pop under,pop up,redirects and sponsored content. This makes the view count drop down to 500k but now 97% of users use adblock so I only make $15/mo on the 15k users that don't know how or are unable to use adblock.
So to compensate I add even more offensive advertising (and some malware redirects for good measure) to my website that pays better. But the stats don't change much and I make much less than when I started out.
Now 490K People use adblock that didn't use adblock before. Thus I have irreparably damaged my user base as even if I go back to just the one banner ad I will never be able to get as much as I did with that single banner ad when I started out.
Plus those adblock users now block ads everywhere not just my site which increases the percentage of adblock users on other websites even those without obtrusive advertising which in turn causes their ad revenue to go down.
Oh woe is me those thieving ablock users should have just put up with cryptowall, malware, popups, pop unders, redirects,sponsored cats, nasty and annoying advertising.
Its all the adblocking users fault its certainly not anything that I have done.
After you mentioned it I checked they rolled back the scale of it but it was not repealed. Its easier to quietly add stuff to it later since its already in place.
Otherwise there is really not much I can disagree with there but Idaho did declare that unconstitutional although that does leave many other sates intact.
Did you know certain screwdrivers are illegal here in the us? Its true the epa would rather your chainsaw smoke like a freight train than be adjusted buy an untrained/unlicensed mechanic.
I could deal with that part of the epa regs being repealed.
Its about like saying someone is not qualified to operate a lightswitch.
Although we apparently are too stupid to correctly operate lighters or gas cans thats why the govt fixed them for us.
Why our elections always devlove into tweedledee vs tweedledumb I don't really know but the 2000 election was BS.
I honestly don't see that this is a problem. Does anyone remember the cuecat? It made a output that was unusable without their special software.
But someone figured out how to modify it so the output was decrypted Confuse-A-Cat. There was also a program called CatNip that would do the same without hardware modification.
Then you could use a device that was being given away for free to scan things with software you already had.
So they have bypassed the drm on the device to read cards with other software.
I wouldn't think this would really impact the security of the users in anyway.
If I bothered to look I imagine I could find a lot of equipment that would do this out of the box. Though it's probably not as cheap or as small.
The only people this really impacts is square as they sell their equipment under the assumption that you won't be able to use it for anything else.
Its kind of like how an inkjet printer only costs $99 but a set of ink costs $120.
I did buy a tv wall mount last month I assume it picked up on that.
What makes me wonder is the email I received from amazon this monday for a free upgrade to amazon business that said in the fine print "Based on your past purchases, we think you might be interested in Amazon Business."
I don't feel I buy quite that much in bulk but I do wonder what they are offering as they say you can buy things from sellers who only deal in B2B but don't give any examples.
I looked for a review but I am unable to find one for amazon business. If you search "amazon business review" you will find a lot of stock tips but no actual reviews.

Yep like I was saying even If it was only 1 trillion years we would still have much more pressing matters to attend to.
At exactly that point my sub will end...

Netflix had 50 million subscribers this time last year now they have 65 million sounds pretty good to me.
Hulu thinks they are too good for my money and I will not be bothered looking up their stats.
Hbo go is estimated to have around a million subscribers but I was unable to find any real numbers.
Crunchyroll had 400,000 subscribers as of 2014.
Maybe they should do what we the customer's have been begging them to do for years!

I hate to tell you this but the lettuce has gone bad.
Lettuce is not naturally pink.
It must have something to do with that space radiation I keep hearing about
It should have said they can't censor things on the darknet not won't.
If won't is correct are they running the darknet sites in question?
Yeah but I am sure the next step will be to ban uber in Saudi Arabia.
Yeah I still don't really understand the ending of that episode.
But at least you had the option to skip if you had the money but there are plenty of companies that just flat out don't want your money.
Ever heard of hulu plus? They won't even take your worthless money.
Any cable/satellite tv company/most websites? news sites are especially bad because most still show ads even if you are a subscriber.
Lets say I have a website about cats. lets say it gets 1m views a day

Its all the adblocking users fault its certainly not anything that I have done.
I haven't seen any malware that affects ios yet.
Well aside from cydia, cydia has infected about 14 million devices. It allows users to run apps not approved by apple its Awful.
To think some people could use their phone as a flashlight without apples approval. The horror!
Those must be some shiny floors.
I second that emotion.
Get to work, set laptop on desk and when I get done with everything else the laptop is already plugged in.
Cellphones too! all the convince of wireless charging with none of the downsides!
Is there any reason it can't? Other than it being a fire hazard? I assume its electricly driven not pneumatic.
It should be reasonably safe for diesel as is.
You mean like when they released windows 10 and the start menu lagged froze and crashed?
They skipped the start menu for one windows release and then promptly forgot how they made it work in the first place.
After you mentioned it I checked they rolled back the scale of it but it was not repealed.
Its easier to quietly add stuff to it later since its already in place.
Otherwise there is really not much I can disagree with there but Idaho did declare that unconstitutional although that does leave many other sates intact.

Its true the epa would rather your chainsaw smoke like a freight train than be adjusted buy an untrained/unlicensed mechanic.

Why our elections always devlove into tweedledee vs tweedledumb I don't really know but the 2000 election was BS.
They should also only use open source software to block websites about open source software and dissenters.
One step forward three steps back.
I honestly don't see that this is a problem.
Does anyone remember the cuecat?
It made a output that was unusable without their special software.
