In my market, most local TV stations stream through their own app. OTA serves the users that struggle to understand how to get a TV antenna working properly, let alone an app or IPTV device. Local advertisers also like the assurance that th

You can ask citizens to go to your website to stay informed, but they will turn around and complain that nobody told them about X,Y,Z because they're not naturally going to the website on a regular basis unless they have an immediate n

I think that would be impactful, but would still create barriers to entry. I'm not one to beg for invites, so I have a hard enough time casually finding one invite, let alone two. I'd imagine a good portion of invites would get st

I wouldn't say it's THE scenario, but it's A scenario. There's a reason IEEE says it's best practice to give IoT devices a strong username and password and to segment them away from the rest of your network, right?

Blame the building materials and shoddy aging homes, not just the pumps. -25c windchill whistled through cracks in my doors and windows at my last rental, and my feet would go numb if I forgot to wear slippers in the kitchen.

How did this apply? I admit I haven't been following the drama closely.

Even if there’s nothing on the machine itself you care about, don’t forget about everything else it can talk to on your local network.

I understand that, and the public narratives being spun by the private sector about “Twitter Files” in an attempt to prevent government intervention in future cases where coordinated disinformation is used to attack governments and control

I think we ended up with the law we have today because over time people agreed there are more than two types of crimes. I appreciate that physically hurting is not appropriate in your law, but it should be your right to hurt others in any n

Given the short attention spans of today and the unlikeliness that your audience will remember to come back for your follow up communication, I’d say an initial press release is a good time and place to remind folks that there’s a bigger is

I understand the pessimism since Stadia is just the last on a list of Google products that some people came to love, and then one day it died. They seem to be competing with Facebook, Google Play Arcade, Apple Arcade, Netflix Games, etc.

You make them sound like freeloaders, when in reality they provide value to the community by committing significant time contributing to Reddit through posts, comments, original content, and volunteer moderation. Reddit is worthless without
