SpaceX launched Jason-3 on Jan 18th, doesn't quite make sense. Maybe a bot hit that day?

So apparently the UEFA are now blocking outtakes from sports footage... This is getting ridiculous! :facepalm:
Millions of consumers of digital content are regularly informed that since they live in a certain region the content they're trying to access is off-limits. Known as 'geo-blocking', the practice is being blamed for encouraging piracy through to anti-competitive business practices in the EU.

The reason for this is that, though the game is a major spectator sport, the frustration experienced by the audience at not actually being able to see what’s going on leads them to imagine that it’s a lot more exciting than it actually is.

Procrastination complete. I finally filed my 2015 taxes, so I can quit worrying about it for another year. I heard that in Sweden filing taxes is done on your cell phone and takes like 15 seconds. I can't imagine the US IRS ever letting things get that simple.
Pfff... try Switzerland. Any country with direct taxation has comparatively simple tax forms.
Thanks God the wife does our taxes :lol:
Our tax laws have only 69,000 articles. Good luck. :lol:

Gets refund of 8000--gets mad because she thinks it supposed to be 10,000.
United States of America--the only country where, if you are the right kind of person, taxes pay you. And let me tell you, people get mad when they don't.

These intertoobs are pretty useful sometimes. Started my car yesterday morning and airbag light was illuminated (uggh, $$$$$). Google make of car and 'airbag light' and get numerous instructions how to reset airbag module with a paper clip. Works, done in 2 minutes, money stays in my pocket.
