You mean the USPS that can send a letter to anyone in the US, no matter how remote, for less than $1.

The USPS that has had its funding messed with for decades by Republicans trying to make private shipping the only option?

The USPS that is guaranteed by the Constitution to exist and provide services?

...

Yeah, let's ditch this amazing service that provides stable union jobs everywhere in the US, and just let private industry take over, that works so well every other time we've done it.

The cat physics are also outstanding. You can tell there were animators just sitting there studying how cats move for many, many hours.

It's a very visible thing when people do it. It's not common where I'm from, but if 1,000 other people go to a store, then just one person leaving a cart in an awkward place pisses off 999 others.

It doesn't take much to make it seem like a lot of people are being inconsiderate, when it's much more likely that a small minority of people have a very wide reaching emotional impact.

Depends what county arrested her. She definitely needs to be careful about traveling to certain locations.

Yeah, Stargate did it better, because kidnapped humans inhabiting the galaxy makes more sense. Solves the "everyone looks human" problem without the "we have proof of evolution here" problem.

If you exit out and then start the show again, it skips the pre-roll. It's annoying, but slightly faster than waiting and watching the 30 second pre-roll.

They advertise as extra $ for ad free, but then they put ads in it. That's dishonest.

What I have to do whenever I watch a show is start the show, get the pre-roll, exit out, then start the show again. It's annoying and a stupid hoop to jump through just to not have to watch the same pre-roll over and over.

I'm not sure if I should upvote this or downvote this...

Apps Only mode is a decent workaround… for now. https://support.google.com/googletv/answer/10070784?hl=en

Really cuts down on the amount of clutter and suggestions on the main screen.

If you have a CCwGTV, you should be using Apps Only mode. Sucks that Google hides this, because I've found that this is the best streaming device for my needs, but they just keep pushing ads like this. Makes me want to do a homebrew chromecast device.

But switching to Apps Only mode is a decent workaround... for now. https://support.google.com/googletv/answer/10070784?hl=en

Crazy thing is... that's what Trevor Noah did as a youth in South Africa. Had a whole bootleg CD burning business until his setup died and they couldn't get the files back.

So he turned his life around and became extremely famous in the US.
