Date: 2024-08-18 04:56 pm (UTC)The thing that I find remarkable is that the Estate of [deceased doctor] that the man is suing Disney on behalf of did not exist at the time he did a trial subscription to Disney+, the estate came into existence when she died! Is Disney trying to argue that once you agree to a TOS, it binds forever and ever, amen, even to entities that did not exist at the time?
FM in cell phones would be cool. However, relying on it is an iffy proposition as FM propagation is largely limited to line of sight whereas AM is a ground wave and will easily skip off the ionosphere and ignore LOS problems. But at the same time, as people increasingly switch to BEVs, those cars generate a huge amount of radio interference and usually don't come equipped with AM radios as it's very hard to filter out said RFI. This is part of the reason why car makers are petitioning Congress to relieve them of having to provide AM radio in future cars as it'll be largely worthless. The only people who largely use AM radio these days are religious broadcasters, political extremists, and sports broadcasting, and FM repeaters.
