Banks are a bunch of dicks anyway. I recently received a ToS that forced me to have all my OSs on their latest update, and never install anything that doesn’t come from official stores.

Next day all of my money was in another bank.

It’s almost impossible to get a 3rd party to win in the US. Their system is rigged so that voting for a 3rd party means throwing away the vote.

You also have to take into account that it is a country in which almost 50% believe Donald trump to be their best option as a president, there’s no way you’re gonna convince enough people to vote 3rd party.

What’s the alternative?

I doubt Wikimedia streams even 0.1% of what netflix does.

The entire content of the wikipedia fits in a pen drive.

Streaming video is a lot more expensive than text and images.

Prices should go down with scale not up though.

There’s initial investment on the initial servers (and the software), and afterwards it should be a linear increase of server costs per user, with some bumps along the way to interconnect those servers.

The cost also scales per content. Because that means more caching servers per user and bigger databases, and licenses.

So this service has less users and more content, it should be way more expensive. The only reason they are cheaper is because they don’t pay those licenses.

The same Xi that violates Taiwan’s airspace continuously. That increases the airspace violations whenever Taiwan does something that he doesn’t like, like democratically electing pro-independence politicians or when US politicians visit Taiwan.

Yeah sure Xi, the only reason you threaten Taiwan’s democracy is because the US tricked you into it.
