Disney requires specific channels to be at the basic tier of a multichannel video provider's offering, not a "sports" tier. Last I checked (today), multichannel IPTV provider Sling worked around this by offering two different basic plans: "Orange" with ESPN and other Disney properties and "Blue" with more channels but no Disney. Orange subscribers can add the extra Blue channels on a second "Orange & Blue" tier.

CBN operated from 1977 through 1997, showing ads starting in 1981 and taking the name The Family Channel in 1988. Beginning in 1997, CBN was reduced to a paid programming arrangement to show The 700 Club on what is now Disney's Freeform channel. There are, however, numerous other religious channels under a viewer donation arrangement like what you describe, such as EWTN. And in 2008, CBN started a second channel called CBN News, first online and then with a handful of broadcast affiliates.

The refugees are mostly coming from the tropical areas, where there will be no starving, if they will just stop shooting up drugs and shooting at each other all the time.

The climate issue will solve itself as technology always improves and keeps getting less 'dirty'. Czech and Poland are shutting down their gigantic coal mines and going green with solar, wind and nuclear - Slovakia and Hungary are building more nuclear power stations - Why? Because the coal in Poland is running out.

I live in Central Europe. You seem to be a bit confused.

Ayup, even Greta has given up with climate change and moved on to more lucrative Gaza scams.

It is certainly causing stupid things to happen everywhere and some of it even affects the climate.

My beachfront property in Nunavut should still rise in value very nicely.

If Pictionary doesn't call back to Tim Follin's soundtrack for the 1990 NES game, then it's Pictionary in name only.

Willy Wonka would mfgr the flying cars, while Gen Geo Patton would mfgr the car factory to fly as well.

And returning to Earth safely?
Returning to Earth safely, right?
