Comment Linear and OTA viewership were going down... (Score 1) 46

Linear and OTA viewership were going down, but it's a demographic thing. Young adults famously don't care to watch the Emmy's, while the people that love these events are generally in their late 40's and older.

The median age for linear video viewership is now well into their 60's. It's the same crowd that still watches the live Macy's Parade broadcasts. This is also the reason why the cable companies stoped so violently herniating video customers.

They are trying to force the issue by changing platforms, but I'd wager total viewership within the USA goes down. Most of these people still prefer their antennas and cable boxes.

Standing up against modern "glassholes" is typical political low-hanging fruit.

Norway is just as prolific an abuser of government contracts with surveillance companies intended to bypass local privacy laws and ordinances, as any other government.

They just don't want the competition.

Submission + - Apple to spend another $30 billion on US chip manufacturing with Broadcom (nerds.xyz)

BrianFagioli writes: Apple announced a new multiyear agreement with Broadcom expected to exceed $30 billion. The deal will result in more than 15 billion chips being manufactured in the United States while funding a $1.5 billion expansion of Broadcoms facility in Fort Collins, Colorado.

The components produced there include advanced radio frequency technologies and wireless connectivity hardware used across Apples product lineup. Apple says the agreement is its largest commitment yet under the companys American Manufacturing Program and will support hundreds of US jobs.

Despite the investment, this does not mean iPhones or Macs will suddenly be assembled in America. Instead, the announcement focuses on increasing domestic production of key components that go inside Apple devices.

He's just another script kiddie that was gassed up by the real threat actors, then handed tools. 9 out of 10 times one of these kids go down, they aren't the brains behind the incident.
They even admitted that somebody else provided the tools. Its just sad that they still belive that they were selected for their leet skillz.

I suspect that is because Microsoft is withholding software libraries and techniques from the open Office team which would very much be in antitrust violation but we don't enforce those laws so that's kind of a moot point.

How are you so consistently full of it?
As usual, you have no idea what you're talking about.
You've spouted nothing but nonsense for years. Actual years.
