Disgusting. I never did like Roku...

Basically: if the Roku device detects it is not actively playing a video, it will show ads. Whether or not this will happen while your TV is set to another input that doesn't contain a Roku device isn't clear based on the skimming I did through the diagrams.

You get a silver star for trying. This article is just too much for AI to re-write.

It's heavily implied she consented while intoxicated, which is impossible according to the poster, and is therefore considered rape, even though both were under the influence

Ehhhhh, I don't know if I agree with this.

American "culture" has had a whole bunch of definitions, usually changing with the decades. For most of the 20th century, you could point to something and say "That's American"; things like milkshake bars and greasers, anything surrounding the hippie movement (that we actually probably stole from somewhere else), and... Whatever that strange design of random shapes the 90s had.

After 2000, there hasn't been really anything that stands out, in part due to the rise of the internet, and in another, the dangerous build environment. In order to have culture, people need to congregate in a place and create something meaningful. Because Americans go to work and then go home, often with little-to-no time in between from long commutes, they have no time to create the next "culture moment".

Is this a specialized socket wrench? What are we looking at here? (Trying to provide context for others who might be sorting by new)

What about a max percentage of the valuation of the company? This would include other incentives such as stocks, vehicles, etc

That was the hyperbole part of the post

If Google has an answer, how long will they support it? I bought a Daydream visor and controller, only for them to totally discontinue the project within 2 years.

This is it. This is the comment that makes me realize that I'm old.
