Or, to look at it another way, they are giving the profitable customers what they want. It is clear Netflix don't want me as a paying customer, and that makes sense. At least in the short term.

Canonical avoid and may profit from this, because they are in a position to relicense all the AGPL code (thanks to the CLA or having written it in the first place). If you do want to make changes and keep those changes proprietary, throw mo

What are summer art festivals? I suspect you are advocating that artists become performers, entertainers or sales people in addition to the 'making art' bit. But I don't think we have that sort of festival over here so do not

The defining feature of a movie is its length, so no. Movies are narratives condensed into a time frame sized to match the audiences bladders. Its why adaptions of novels are difficult. Short stories are a better fit. A good adaption of a n

Some studies indicated this resistance was tied to the amount of redundancy in DNA. https://elifesciences.org/articles/21864 talks about how elephants have 20 versions of the tumor suppressor gene TP53. So it is statis

Quoting https://science-atlas.com/faq/how-much-of-the-earth-is-inhab... : "According to the FAO Global Land Cover SHARE database, produced in 2022, 0.6% of Earth’s land surface is defined as ‘Artificial surfaces’.

To put that in perspective, in 2014 the estimate was artificial structures covered 0.6% of the Earth's surface. It might take a while to double the amount of buildings, roads etc. and cover it all with PDRCs

My understanding is that in most cases toxoplasmosis cures itself, and our bodies left producing antibodies to reduce the chance of reinfection. And the study associates the antibodies with frailty, not the actual parasite. Could this be &#
