Gotta love the cup game the airline industry plays.
Biden didn’t have the power to remove him and didn’t want to appear to act like the orange man. Politics getting in the way of Democracy.
Require them to be licensed, registered, and have a tax ID. Bet that’d sort out 80% of them.
Made a joke when 6x CD-ROM drives came out that 6 in German is sechs. Sechs drive, sex drive, hurr-durr.
I was in middle school.
they actively advertise migrants are welcome.
They actually don’t. Denver tells them they don’t have the resources to help them and pays to have them bussed elsewhere (of their choice, instead of tricking them and lying to them like Texass does.)
Tom Wheeler really was surprising because he was a huge industry shill before being appointed FCC chair, and then turned around and stopped being shitty.
Or just tell investors to find other KPMs outside of something as easy to fake as active user count and the problem sorts itself out. But also, I agree.
These sites likely prefer fake active users for multiple reasons outside of investor manipulation, including that in normal operation, bot users not running via API will scroll past ads and get a bunch of fake ad viewership they can cash in on.
LLMs have improved my education, work life, and general knowledge search. I get more time to spend living my life and less trying to find one dude’s stacked change post from 2009 that fixed my problem.
They allow me to access information the way I learn and operate in a way that textbooks, college education, video courses, or online classes have never allowed me to do in my entire life.
That being said, the general AI buzz and buzzwords need to die, the real positives need to be celebrated.
Really curious to see how the modem stacks up, but I also guess reviewers given demo devices were told to not talk about or play down the modem performance, rather than fix the problem.
Hold on now, let us not start using logic when referring to computer programming here. It’s all magic and bumbling around on a keyboard.
This is a reflection of how absolutely uneducated those holding the keys to the operation of governance across the nation often are. It is frankly, disturbing.
Starliner boot up noise stuck in a bootloop.
But seriously, it’s a bit disturbing if a machine attached to your living quarters is malfunctioning.
I thought the Great Exodus from xitter was a matter of critical mass not yet being attained. Enough readers have to be elsewhere to get journalists elsewhere.
No, I think it’s just lazy journalists not learning new tools like Bluesky.
Armchair judgement of children being children up in here.
Scrolling their Insta rather than parenting.
All of the data you mentioned, voicemail audio included, would be about 10 megabytes.
It’s so annoying really, DirecTV has honestly done a good job to try and keep all these conflicts away from their customers. Linear is dying, they are trying to keep it functional while they can.
All these channels (broadcast especially) try to ask for a bigger cut, which leads to customer bill increases. Broadcast shouldn’t even be allowed to, because they get access to public-owned radio spectrum to provide a public service and make some money when that public service isn’t needed.
DirecTV retransmitting those channels specifically does nothing but help the broadcast station reach an audience that otherwise wouldn’t. (Especially in locations like the Intermountain West.) They should be thankful for it, not charge for it, nor be allowed to. The retransmit literally costs them nothing and reaps them free ad dollars.
Linear will likely be replaced with the clusterfuck that streaming TV now is, DirecTV will eventually have to pivot or die.
Not trying to sound like an apologist nor a fanboi, but as far as companies go, DTV has been more flexible than most streamers (their stream arm anyway.) However, they’re just going to continue to have these battles until companies like Disney can pull their channels and get people to pay for all their silly apps directly.
It is a bummer on some level, the end of Linear is kinda nice. Unlimited cloud DVR, fast forward through commercials, all your content in one place.
Can’t wait to see the “underground” Android VM with all the TV apps baked in to present a unified UI like Linear, hah. Like Pidgin for TV.
Technically at&t doesn’t own DirecTV anymore but they do have a big share, and DirecTV still uses a lot of their back-end tools. Probably support infra too?
We suck, in general.
