NDizzle··on Munich court tells Netflix to stop using H.265 video coding to stream UHD

Dynatraps. Tougher than Toms TNT bait. Gotta have it all out there and ready to go when the season gets started - you don't want to fall behind.

You can also plant things to attract barn swallows and the like, but then you have to deal with them dive bombing you every time you go outside anywhere near their nests.
