Huh. 98% of my youtube consumption is on either TV or phone apps at this point, though, so they really wouldn't have a place to put something like that. Or maybe they would and I just haven't watched anything that would have it. Who knows.
Paramount Plus definitely likes shoving a 30 second ad before your show even on the ad-free plan, though...
that would very much wreak havoc with caching since you basically can't cache pricing including sales tax as it depends on your very specific location.
of course, for things like event tickets, it's the venue's location that matters for tax, so it works out to be a non-issue.
I don't want to see SNW on TV. I don't think they'll have to change the content directly, but they'd have to fit to the 42-odd minute runtime. We've had several episodes near and over an hour long. It's very refreshing to see them making episodes as long as they need to be to tell the story.
I've basically always used the same pocket as my keys and I've never had problems with scratches. Admittedly, I have my phone in my pocket a lot less these days than I did several years ago, but that's still almost a decade of experience...
We haven't gotten rid of our main office quite yet (we just signed a 5 year lease in October '19, talk about timing), but we got rid of the satellite office and are absolutely recruiting in remote-first fashion. I fully expect us to just not have an office (or, at least, significantly downsize) once that lease is up.
It's a pity. That office was such a huge upgrade from the old one, but given the events of the last 3.25 years, I'm not going to miss it that much.
oh no I'm right there with you. I used to try to avoid having to stop for gas in NJ or OR at all costs until I got a car that wants 93, but we only have 91 in CA but they have 92 in OR so I just deal with it (it gets noticeably better fuel economy).
RTGs are still used for outer solar system missions. Not enough light for solar panels. Hell, even the Perseverance Mars rover, which was launched in 2020, has an RTG.
