If they want to inspire then get out and march from the front. I’m not sticking my neck out until they do.

No. Even if things change for political reasons if you are better supported with medication and therapy you should seek them as fast and safe as possible.

Support can make a huge difference today and then we can plan for tomorrow.

Remember when American tax payers gave billions to telecoms to install fiber in rural America?

Don’t worry they conveniently forgot too.

That plus other services like rural hospitals and education are huge drawbacks to living in most of rural America.

If you force Ads then I will replace your equipment. The only reason I use Roku is to avoid the Ads built into “smart TVs”

Really because it happened to me until I was able to force a software roll back which required obtaining their closed proprietary service software.

Legally none, but given that were no longer governed by law, no idea. I would say talk to a civil rights lawyer if you are a Naturalized citizen and want to participate in your first amendment rites.

Like livestreams? That being the exception but most ‘content’ isn’t live.

A shocking amount of content is live, and then encoded for streaming. Given that you are on Lemmy I would guess that your interests dont overlap much with content that requires live transmission. So this is an expected selection bias, not being critical, and totally not judging, just pointing it out so you can be aware. I bet your parents still have cable.

Not all content can be downloaded, and for many people they want to watch what they want to watch right now, and waiting for the download is not something they are interested in.

Also rights holders dont want you to have an offline copy if they can avoid it, that way its easier to monetize for them.

Compression. While Compression tech HAS improved, its been maintaining our current quality while reducing bandwidth needs.

A 1080p Bluray disk will look far far better than Netflix in 4k every time because its not compressed. The reality is that any form of compression will cause loss in fidelity in some way, so the only way to really improve video is to increase the bandwidth of the video.

I talk to IT nerds frequently who are asking things like “why do you need 16x 400GB ports of non blocking bandwidth” to which I have to explain that a SINGLE stream of uncompressed UHD is 12GB/s and we are trying to put 200+ streams onto their network.

Only because we’re lazy in the US and still have all the money. Watch as our economy falls and how quickly people will transaction to Chinese, French, German…

Without business English will start to decline. It’s a shit language and we’re kinda asshole to the world about it.

I think we shouldn’t.

Diversity and language are strengths. We already have enough common languages for diplomacy and business.

He also has been known to hook up a kid in need when their normal dealer cant be found.

The workers’ highest individual radiation dose was more than the overall average but still far below anything approaching a 100-millisievert five-year dose limit.

Fucking sensationalized headlines.

Sometimes I get a smile out of hearing my partners little snores. Sometimes they jump out and startle me awake with full on fight or flight.

Could be worse you could live in the States or North Korea… It’s getting hard to tell the difference other that that the current firing squads are restricted to convinced criminals…

And election reform right? That was a huge part of his initial platform.

Dont worry it will totally happen and we won’t need a functioning executive branch to enforce the judges ruling on the executive branch.

The rich when tax cuts go into effect. It’s always been a mass transfer of wealth and the plan from the beginning. It’s why we always knew any bargaining was bull.
