  1. After reading many comments in this thread, I just remember the very first time that I wrote to Amazon Customer Support. I asked them: "Why do you erased many accurate reviews about this book?" Their answer was: "The book author removed all unfair and biased comment about his book". I have almost forgotten about this, but now I remember.

  2. Not as easy as it sounds on Scammers Are Buying Thousands Of Fake 5-Star Amazon Reviews -- on Facebook (thehustle.co) · · Score: 3, Interesting

    After reading this article, I visited Amazon, signed in with my own account and tried to left a review for an article that I bought in a local store. SURPRISE! Amazon do not let me write a review for an article that I own and use everyday. How it's possible that thousands of people could left fake reviews without being spotted and stopped by Amazon, in the same way that they stopped me today from writing a review?

  3. Digital Product Placement instead of Ads on Netflix 'Would Lose 57 Percent of Their Subscribers If They Added Commercials' (netimperative.com) · · Score: 1

    Netflix could experiment with digital product placement, just like they are producing Interactive movies and series. This 4 page paper is an introduction to this topic: https://www.academia.edu/12616... If they use state of art technology, Netflix could sell a lot of Ads and product placement without annoying their paying customers.

  4. Actually the game of "improvise a movie plot for a good laugh" was a fun way to pass time with friends in the 80's. Today, that game would be impossible without offending anyone...

  8. Profit from each customer on Struggling MoviePass Kills Off Its Annual Plan -- Even If You Already Paid For It (nypost.com) · · Score: 1

    How could MoviePass receive a profit from every customer? Selling articles and events (at a profit) to each one of their own customers.

  10. Profit from every customer on MoviePass' New Business Plan Is To Charge You Whatever It Wants (qz.com) · · Score: 1

Sell your customers Plain movie DVDs, Exclusive Live Events, Movie Memorabilia, Access to Test screenings, Participation in Live Conferences with Cast and Crew from Old and New Movies, Books, Soundtrack Music, etc... The BIG Question is: Does MoviePass wants to get a profit from every customer?

  11. This is what I though, after reading: "Exactis leaked..."

  12. Re:Nuclear has problems on Sucking CO2 From Air Is Cheaper Than Scientists Thought (technologyreview.com) · · Score: 1

    > Nuclear has a waste problem and a fallout risk This is correct, but as many others pointed out: There is no continuous research to solve (or improve) this nuclear waste problem.

  15. His conversation on Facebook about Steve Jobs (after the release of one of Job's biopics) was very enlightening. Before that conversation, I had a really negative image of Steve Jobs, but not anymore.

  17. Re: Just wait for it on Update: Possible Active Shooter Reported at YouTube HQ (theverge.com) · · Score: 1

    Keeping many weapons in perfect working order requires a lot of time and skills, so I am surprised to learn that this hard work could be taken as a hobby. Most of the people that collect weapons are just looking for "their chosen one". They are looking for a single weapon that they could handle and use correctly if the situation arises. That is the reason why many gun owners are constantly looking for new guns.
