Online advertising is such a small revenue stream for a network like Viacom that they have no incentive to put anything online at all. They only use online streaming as an experiment to test new forms of revenue. So far, it hasn't been showing itself to be a worthwhile endeavor anyway so why worry about the slight dip in revenue if it will help you accomplish your goal of getting more money from DirecTV.
In the past, Nexus devices have been supported by Google, not the manufacturer. Fortunately, Google has gotten better at customer support recently. They finally figured out that customers want phone support, not email.
It's funny because I absolutely hate phone support. I can't think of anything I'd rather not do than call someone on the phone. Email is comparatively excellent.
>They are then sprayed with nitrogen before being put out so that the skin turns orangish and looks sort of ripe.
Stores spray the tomatoes with Ethelyene gas. Not Nitrogen. The difference matters here. Ethelyene gas is naturally produced by tomatoes and other fruits that ripen after picking. This gas catalyzes the ripening process. In nature, ripening happens relatively slowly because the gas is excreted into the open air. In a supermarket, this gas is given in much higher doses than would happen in nature, accelerating the ripening process. This turns the tomatoes red, but because it happens more quickly the sugars in the tomatoes don't have as much time to fully develop which is the main reason home-grown and ripened tomatoes can taste better.
However, as I explained this is still just an accelerated version of a natural process. You can do a smaller scale version by sticking your tomatoes in a paper bag with an apple (apples produce a lot of Ethelyene gas) for a couple days. The article is describing tomatoes that theoretically taste even better than home grown varieties, which still have similar genetic makeup to supermarket variety tomatoes.
