You might be misremembering why Netscape became irrelevant. Microsoft using their operating system monopoly to release an inferior but free browser was one element. Companies then making webpages work for IE, which didn't follow web standards was another. Netscape throwing out their perfectly good source code and starting from scratch was another. Netscape losing their revenue stream was another, since Microsoft could subsidize IE costs with Windows. Yes, money was a factor, but it wasn't the sole factor, and possibly not the most important.

He's also just one person. Presumably Tesla will have many employees at it's headquarters, many of whom will lean liberal. I'd be surprised if Tesla moving to Texas will be a net gain of conservative voters.

Humans are dependent on non-human species. A disaster for non-human species is a disaster for humans.

Technically, they are correct (about being outside the US and EU. Switzerland is not a member of the EU or US.

You should bring up your truck with the parent of the post you replied to (maybe that was even your post since all ACs look alike?) That's the post that was attacking CA for having the lowest high school graduation rate in the US.

If you claim that a system that is in use in most of the world is not working, you should show what's not working about it.

The scientists almost never say that though. They qualify their results, mentioning the potential error in the data, sample size, sample representation, etc. The media then take that and restate it as it it is a 100% certain claim applicable to all people in every case.

That's interesting. My slightly less than terabyte backed up overnight. I didn't check the upload speed but it certainly didn't feel throttled.

Where one chooses to live isn't really based on luck but choice.

Yes, OTA channels can be limiting or they can be everything one needs. It would depend on one's needs. HBO offers a streaming service for $15 a month. We subscribe to it for two months a year to watch Game of Thrones and other programs. The children can watch PBS to their heart's content. The public library offers a metric ton of programming for them to borrow. Sports are enjoyed at the stadium.

Not internet speed, but transmission speed is about 19Mb/s per channel received. So, for a city with forty or channels of television, that's about 800Mb/s of incoming bits to the house.

All TVs come with an ATSC tuner. Otherwise, they are not TVs and the FCC regulations frown upon them being advertised as such.

KUOW.

Since we're discussing a thread where only one channel is received. KUOW broadcasts their four feeds and a $5 antenna receives them. I require no contract, no monthly subscription, no sales calls, no annoyances of any kind.

It all depends on what services one wants. I add to that HBO Now for two months a year to watch Game of Thrones for $15 (first month free). I get all the television I want to watch for $16 a year or so if you amortize the cost of the antenna.
