No, it's to remove dollars every month from the pockets of people who THINK they see a lot of movies, but in reality don't. Just like Costco or any other membership-based wholesaler depend on people having the illusion…
As a disconnected aside, I'm a bit sad my first exposure to Jerry Pournelle was when he was a guest on This Week in Tech podcasts. By the time I picked them up, he certainly was long in years and I felt he rambled more…
I didn't have the time to wait in line every few weeks to turn in my recyclables in LA so I put them all in a bag next to the dumpster for the complex. I didn't start doing this until after I noticed the dumpster divers…
Doubtful, the other players wouldn't be in any different scenario than they were before Amazon tried this.
Sewell is directly quoted as saying cellular "isn't as important as it used to be." When they thought 3.5mm TRS wasn't as important as it used to be they cut it. Seems like cellular is perhaps still more crucial to the…
Commander Keen 4 and Duke Nukem 2 with a Gravis joystick of some description.
Wife and I just closed on our home - good thing this didn't happen DURING the process as we got a ton of DocuSign requests.
Interesting, that's nowhere near the level of insurance (it's significantly higher) than what even non-cut-rate insurers will recommend for most drivers in the states. After changing providers, we pay $1400 for two cars…
I would not recommend going to 257 with the intention of having a good time playing arcade games. Their selection is fairly limited. As the name implies, it's good if you just want Pac-Man games, and mediocre for much…
The US has plenty of existing immigration detention centers: https://www.ice.gov/detention-facilities.
It matters at a quick glance - is performance measured in images per millisecond or milliseconds per image? The answer to that question is obviously important to how you interpret the relative performance. Both metrics…
That's not the purpose of this experiment, as the capability to target specific neuron types has been well demonstrated in the past. It's approaching a toolbox technique at this point much like regular electrophysiology…
To be fair, being a Professional at a computer covers a lot more than just C#/C++ code. Back when I was doing neuroscience research, I could eat up 32 GB of RAM in a MATLAB simulation easy. Using microscopy data people…
Regardless of any other answers (or how you feel about voter identification), it wouldn't have any bearing on voting verification since the state takes care of that on their own. If a state didn't trust it's own ID to…
I don't get the sense that the rest of Spinal Tap is included, but I think if Derek Smalls wants to release a solo album called Smell the Glove Compartment, he should be able to.
Since it seems like most responses misunderstood your question, I will say that I've never been entirely pleased with "startup" content creation. Netflix and Amazon do fine, but Yahoo's offerings outside of picking up…
They don't currently for their attached 4G services (up to 30GB for $120 a month) so there's clearly no reason to expect they would/will for 5G service.
My very large company has 5 lanes. Purely technical is at the far right, purely management is at the far left. Our CTOs do not spend the majority of their career in the company in either lane and that seems to have…
I read it more as the OP had their own company where they were in charge of making decisions AND executing them, and there's no real indication of managing employees. I suspect they enjoyed the execution. If they don't…
That doesn't really make any sense, it would be more reasonable to say third-parties funding suits must disclose if they DO NOT have a conflict of interest. What, exactly, is the reportable harm in being bankrolled by a…
Well of course they do, the number of people for whom heavy LTE usage is an economically feasible prospect (i.e. unlimited usage) is vanishingly small. Since their network can't tell who pays per GB and who doesn't, yes…
Normally publishers look for some statements (either in the manuscript or in the submission or both) that you have followed ethical standards in gathering and sharing the data. It's easy to bypass that when you start…
Come on, you know why it asks you if it's the correct amount. There are plenty of instances when it is not (item is mistagged, scanned twice, etc.)
It's not optimal but you can create your own policy settings that stop automatic update downloads and installs. It will still bug you a LOT about it though.
This is as good a place as any to ask this: my wife has a lot of magazines that she wants to keep the content of but not necessarily the paper. I've been looking for quite a while for a tool that will automate the…
