Yup funds, and the web traffic handleability.
My small city (population 89,000) had a 911 outage about 2 years ago. Their solution was to sms text or voice dial everyone with the message “…please dial any county non-emergency number… see a list of numbers at bitly.url…”. The hosted website was hugged-to-death.

After fines, it was inevitably cheaper to extend the nearest net backbone closer to our neck of the woods and upgrade all county things with fiber and data centers.

Yeah. 40+. Blind, mostly. Lower back problems. But definitely a different last name.

Future shower tip, avoid heavy buzzwords (promo, business, fear, etc). Showerthoughts typically sound like laid-back ideas since an actual shower is quite similar and relaxed.

Bicycle riding is relaxing and fun. I got that notion late after re-rereading the post.

There are cities near coatlines and beaches that rent quad-cycles for tourists, sightseeing, pedicab taxi, etc. More offen, they stay broken longer compared to the standard 2-wheel bicycle for rent. In my youth I had a tricycle (20" wheels and a rear basket) that hauled daily about 70 newspapers in one trip. My downside, maintenance was never a simple walmart fix and the tricycle had a very short service life in the paperboy business. Teenage me relied more on my Huffy bicycle and 2nd refill trips for those heavy sunday papers. Reliability vs truckability (if that’s an actual word 😉). And on the business-side there’s the cost. Someone will need to have a proper dedicated bicycle workshop. A “backroom to fix bikes” will never cut it for the evermore complicated modern bike\e-bike.

Born is the memes.

This is interesting. I use OTA antenna tv everyday, almost exclusively. I almost forgot OTA HDTV still uses the mpeg2-ts, similar to the dvd codec. Newer tv hardwares (>2010-ish) all can decode mpeg4, theoretically, since they utilize internet streaming apps and services.
I smell a new format war a comin’.
I say, go right for mpeg4 h.265, or higher. Instead of mixing mpeg2 and mpeg4, like the video demonstrated. Because no way am i going to “buy” a DRM-protected thing for every broadcaster… I’m currently pulling-in 20+ stations.

And that may be the other format war… to pay or not to pay.

Also the three people from the “distracted boyfriend” meme were all stock photo models.

By streamers ignoring all the decades of broadcasting experience, and all established what’s fair air-time for both content and commercial. That’s the frustration… they’re rewriting standards… “my company, my content, my timings, my bottom-line”. And doing it poorly. And at top speed.

This article’s mentioned examples of disharmony, confusion, further division, and fragmentation… are really not even a global issue across Android. It cited a hardware-specific accessory, an Amazon internal corporate decision, and ignores a basic fact about apps or services is you can go with another app or service to fit your personal liking and functionality.

BigClive on youtube talked about his new work phone made for engineers. It had a FLIR infrared camera!

Any pet knife owner will tell you about the risks involved with that.
