I’m guessing this because the current investigation is happening under Biden and she is likely to have similar basic antitrust goals for DOJ.
I’m certain that it won’t happen if Trump is elected because he’s anti-regulation in general and specifically he’s extremely corrupt and easily bribed.
It might happen if Harris wins
This is a good point.
The people who make the shows are artists. Some artists are better than others, and some works by an artist are better than other works by the same artist. If you listen to music, you don’t usually care if the label is Sony or Universal or whatever. Disney has management who hires the artists but those managers and executives aren’t making the content, good or bad.
On the other hand, Disney does apparently meddle too much to try to use formulas for popularity or whatever. And that can ruin art.
Free speech abolitionist
But they suck.
He just wants to run the whole country again. You probably don’t need any reading comprehension or be able to take responsibility for your own actions for that job.
As an uncle who knows something about WWII and also notices the current rise in fascism, I must point out there is an error in the article:
At press time, Poppavich signed up for a local history group’s WWII reenactment, requesting a position within the Axis powers, specifically the USSR since he “likes Putin’s style.”
Actually, the USSR was not an axis power during the war. They were one of the Allies on the side of Great Britain and the US. The Axis was Germany, Italy, and Japan
Kanopy has a lot of international films. It’s free through my library.
I think it’s on Tubi which is free and young people can figure it out. But they won’t stumble upon it like you said
I remember watching some bewitched reruns and they only had a few plots.
It’s a comedy so nobody ever thinks to use magic in a way to help society or something, so that’s ok. But it’s very noticeable how mundane the plots are. Also I think there were a few other old shows where the characters were in the advertising business or television business. I bet this was done to pander to the people who were paying for the show.
It’s weird that Dennis Prager spent a few decades on talk radio and in his books talking about morality, specifically Judeo-Christian values. Then later started an organization with his name on it that constantly bears false witness and harms people and breaks several other of the Ten Commandments.
Maybe he never really believed in anything.
Decades ago there were many unique candies that came out only at Easter time in the US. They were made by relatively small companies. For example there were chocolate eggs with maple or raspberry candy inside. You didn’t see candy like this at any other time of year. There were also Peeps, which weren’t great but at least they were special in that you only saw them for a few weeks a year.
Then slowly Hershey and Nestle started flooding the shelves with egg shaped versions of their boring ass candy you could get any day of the year. And they started selling peeps with different shaped at Halloween and Christmas.
It’s a shame.
There’s a documentary “King Corn” that talks about how US government subsidies to farmers for growing corn have made it so inexpensive that it creates a surplus and prices that are too low relative to other foods. This resulted in the proliferation of corn being fed to cattle and other animals, which makes them less healthy to eat but fattens them for slaughter sooner. Also corn syrup is so cheap to make it made soft drinks less expensive. These are large reasons why fast food was so inexpensive and so bad for you. Also surplus corn and corn syrup led to the creation of a lot of unhealthy breakfast cereals which are marketed to kids.
Innovation sometimes comes from government investment which is taxpayer funded but then the profits are kept private.
And unlike any other TV in your life, the Vision Pro can literally DRM your eyes — if you’re watching a movie in the Apple TV app or Disney Plus and go to take a screen capture, the content blacks out. It’s strange to experience a reality where big companies can block you from capturing what you see, even if all you’re trying to do is show people how cool it looks in a review. You can get around DRM screenshots on an iPhone by just taking a photo of the screen, but there’s no such off-ramp for the Vision Pro.
Hey, I found the reason why I would never never never ever buy something like this. It’s going to be the Black Mirror episode that forces you to watch ads.
Strange New Worlds is more like classic trek, it’s not bad like Discovery.
Especially since they sell brand new printers for the price of about 3 ink cartridges.
I started using nebula which costs $30/year (discounted price, easy to get). It has some of the YouTube creators, shares revenue with them, has no ads, and isn’t google.
Sure it has a fraction of the YouTube content, but there’s more new stuff there every day than I could watch. And it isn’t toxic like YouTube.
Google has different goals than a search user.
Whether google uses AI or not, their goal will be at odds with the user’s and the results will only be useful enough that most people won’t completely stop using search.
Hey vocal.media why not proofread your articles a little better? The first letter is a typo, never seen that before.
