5 years ago, a 70-year-old towtruck driver/mechanic told me how he learned of the tools criminals can use to steal keyless entry vehicles. Anyone worth half their salt in the industry knows it’s possible and how it’s done and has known for a while.
When cable TV was first a thing, it was advertised as extra content and with NO commercials. Pay us money, we’ll give you a big bundle of channels, and you won’t have to see commercials anymore.
Then they started adding more and more commercials in. Nowadays, a half-hour slot is 1/3rd commercials, and probably another 15% of that time is credits and “previously on” or “before the break” or pointless shitty padding
Then Netflix came out. Pay us a monthly fee, you can see all this content whenever you want, no commercials.
Then everyone wanted a slice of Netflix’s pie, and now we have a dozen separate streaming services you all have to pay monthly fees for.
The solution is Cable TV 2.0. Compile it all back into one service, charge a higher fee, cut all the ads out (again). Call it Fiber TV or something, idk. Otherwise people will realize it’s easier to pirate shit again than to navigate and pay for 8 different streaming services
Sure, but does your driveway have traffic on it day and night? Do you have to pay $50+ per hour to clear snow from your driveway? Will several vehicles and people and potential pedestrians be injured if a car slides in your driveway? What about maintenance costs associated with fixing potholes in your driveway?
I think the many added logistics associated with removing snow from a road in a downtown urban area makes the cost of a heated bed much more lucrative than if you’re just heating a driveway
