Yeah it’s awful, I really hope they fail but I’m not entirely sure they will. Most people who sign up are probably pretty good advertising targets.
I mean, Telly is giving away TVs that have a camera and second screen to play ads. Sony might not think they could get away with it a decade ago, but consumers seem to slowly accept more bullshit over time so I could definitely see their calculus changing in the future.
Honestly I think it’s just a shit idea. Only way I could see it flying is if you heavily (or completely) subsidized the cost of the television. There’s already a company giving away free ad supported TVs.
Yeah absolutely, here’s the filing:
Oh Sony is all over it, here’s one of the diagrams of their patent.
Usually season 2. At that point the writing team has their footing but isn’t out of ideas and trying to drag it out. Most shows start going downhill in season 3/4.
Great story, thanks for sharing!
I’ve been loving Tosh Show. His guests are way more interesting than listening to comedians talk to comedians all the time. Don’t have any kids, so I find the bedtime stories at the end hilarious as well.
I mean we see that with Sauron and Frodo in the films. It would appear that having the ring on your finger when severed does fuck all to help you out.
not if we have anything to say about it

The writing feels so close to Shitty_Morph from Reddit I was prepping myself to hear about The Undertaker and Mankind about halfway through.
So what exactly are you disagreeing with? You just don’t like their word choice? Because “Hey we should he careful or the extreme right will take over and dismantle our rights” is exactly what I get from OP. They specifically stated this is the beginning, it’s happening slowly, and they feel they would be a target if we continue on the same trajectory. What’s incorrect/hyperbolic here?
Pretty much all of history dealing with fascism disagrees with you. That alone justifies the concern. I haven’t seen anyone say the world is a year or two away from unimaginable suffering or death. But there is a very clear path to unimaginable suffering or death in front of us. We’ve seen the path of fascism taken before. We know what happens. We have historical and academic research that backs it up that we can compare to today.
Saying (without any evidence) that people are overreacting sounds much more like a coping mechanism to me. People are saying “hey we should really check out this smoke billowing under the door” and you’re telling everyone they’re being silly because you can’t see any fire.
I think the solution is for all the non assholes to work together to stamp out the assholes and remove them from having power. Incredibly difficult, but not impossible. It’s the same class war that’s been waged by the wealthy for decades. Theyve never stopped attacking, we just suck at working together and have allowed them to gain waaaay too much ground.
They’re always going to be on the bus, but we can at least push them to the back where they can’t fuck with where we want to go.
I tried to convince my wife we should come up with a dope new last name for both of us to take but she wouldn’t bite. “Mr and Mrs Bonesaw” sounded pretty cool to me…
You wouldn’t download a head injury.
He’s still a giant piece of fucking shit that can die in a house fire for all I care… Fuck. Stuart. Little.
We had them and then moved to a new place with solid metal lines going to the toilet so I couldn’t reinstall our bidets. I lived in luxury for years only to have it snatched away… Don’t take your bidet for granted people.
The fun part about this ruling is the final answer to most of these questions is “SCOTUS decides”. Any actions they find favorable will be ignored and any actions they oppose will be considered outside of the agency’s mandate.
