Comment Re:Netflix, but not for content (Score 1) 37
My biggest gripe with the streaming service interfaces is that the continue watching on a lot of them seems to remove shows after a set amount of time. Instead the list should be limited by , a fairly large, number of shows, so if you don't watch a service a lot, you can find that show you started 6 months ago.

The rainy-day fund is not built with taxes from citizens and business. It is built only with taxes from the oil-industry. And then they have invested all that money, so the money itself helps to build up the fund even more.

It should not be allowed to have both the pedestrian crossing and the turn signal showing green at the same time. The turn signal could switch from red to green immediately after the ped-crossing turn red, but no sooner.
If they want to increase the flow of the intersection, they could have the turn signal be red-less, as in not having a red state. Then when the straight-ahead signals go green, it would be allowed to turn left yielding to oncoming traffic and any pedestrians in the crossing. Then when the oncoming traffic and the ped-crossing have turn red, the left turn signal goes green indicating free path.

One of the best rules I've come across to keep the racing affordable was this one:
* Any competitor can purchase the winning car for $500
So that either keeps the cost of the cars down, or one very rich competitor eventually having made all the cars competing. :-p

My local cinema uses a constant horizontal, and have some black fabric at top and bottom that get adjusted to make the desired aspect ratio. You see them moving when they switch from showing commercials and trailers (1.77), and to the movie proper (2.35)
