BTW they don't hide the source of the videos. Scrolling down on the video page links to the collection and source.

Many of these are sourced from the US Government, which means public domain. They also have links to the sources below so you can verify source and copyright.

Not plastic, but 'Cats Cradle' by Kurt Vonnegut has something kind of like that.

I don't understand this. There are super cheap shared-hosting plans the allow you to just do a couple clicks to install WordPress with full control. Then about $13/yr for a .com with no trouble with SSL or Google.

AT&T had to pay $4B for failure to acquire T-Mobile. T-Mobile used that money quite wisely.

There are though. Regularly.

In middle school (age 11-13 in the late '90s, USA) I had a hand-me-down Palm Pilot (probably upgraded to Handspring in there). I'd leave it on my serial(?) port cradle and have it download my daily news from sites like IGN and Slashdot over 56K before I woke up. I was also the kid that regularly read the "Time Life for Kids" mags they'd pass out to us in homeroom. That's the outlet I learned about Napster from and hooked my school onto. Your comment reminded me of those days. Now I'm still desperately hooked on RSS since the early days.

ETA: When I was a late teen I ended up managing a bunch of younger teams for a free mod for an indie PC game called Blockland. I had them code up IRC and RSS capabilities into the mod from scratch in the Torque Game Engine's custom TorcueScript. I couldn't believe what those kids were capable of. They all went into programming, engineering, or founding their own companies out of highschool and college. If one of them told me something was impossible I'd just tell them that I saw that a competing mod already figured it out. Magically my dudes had a solution really quick lol. Sometimes when you have limited resources and/or experience the old and proven ways are just as good.

Was great when they had all that XML experience in a weird scripting language and I asked them to implement Jabber in-game from my Dreamhost shared-hosting plan. Crazy what a bunch of teens can do for an online Lego-like game.

Thanks for letting this older dude wax nostalgic off the rails. Hope it reminds others on HN about early hacking days like OP's project.

Because of the lowered cost of launching on this particular New Glenn. By the time of the next window BO will be able to command more money for a less-risky launch.

No, Kimmel accused Trump supporters of publicly trying to distance themselves from the shooter.

Many media outlets reported Trump was mad that any of his staff had reporter contacts in the first place. If your assertion is true that would be the quick end to Waltz's short career.
