Older Samsung Smart TVs, Certain Roku Devices To Lose Netflix Support Next Month (techcrunch.com) 170

An unspecified number of smart TVs manufactured by Samsung will lose native support for Netflix next month, the companies said in an announcement this week. From a report: Netflix app installed -- or available for -- Samsung smart TVs manufactured in 2010 and 2011 (C and D lineups) -- and likely sold for many years after that -- will stop functioning December 2, Samsung alerted customers this week. In a statement, a company spokesperson said these TV models were sold only in the U.S. and Canada. In its statement, the top smart TV manufacturer advised affected customers to look for a game console, streaming media player, set-top box or other devices that still support Netflix app to continue their binge-watching sessions. A Netflix spokesperson cited technical limitations for the change. The developement comes weeks after Netflix alerted several Roku customers that they, too, will lose access to the streaming service on December 1.

not slightly warmer weather.

There's your problem: lack of imagination. They're not running away from slightly warmer weather, they're running away from the secondary effects of that warmer weather: Too much rain/not enough rain, crop losses due to higher temps, etc.

You really need to broaden your horizons dude. Or maybe learn how to use Google.

I never ran away.

Sure you did. You claimed the Democrats weren't going to do a damn thing about this tax bill once in office, all while snarling about our "straight face." I went you one better and offered you a bet. You spent your next post without one mention of said bet or the certainty of the prediction that lay behind it. You then spent your remaining commenting time either avoiding the subject or going "Nu-huh, you ran away!"

You can call it whatever you want, it's a free country. I call it running away, you big, cowardly, kitten.
