So if distributors still have to pay a monthly licencing cost in addition to royalties, it is effectively the same as distribution is now with the exceptions of banning exclusivity deals and taking away the ability of creators to control access to their work?

haha one can hope

So in this theoretical instance, where streaming companies (including television channels) don’t pay creators to produce content (only to stream completed projects), how do creators get funding?

oh yeah! and livermush is another thing I’ve heard of. I’ve never encountered either in the wild, but I’d love to!

Then there would be no reason for streaming platforms to create new content. It would completely disincentivize companies like netflix from creating content/funding content because as soon as that content was generated you could get it on Hulu. It would mean that Crunchyroll could broadcast NBA games. It would be nice…

Fry up some spam and put on white bread with grape jelly. Great.

the first one was real fun. i’m down!

my family called this a jellyfish sandwich going back 4 generations and at least 80 years haha

Yeah, I’ve never hear a definition that didnt match utopia. i mean it has resource gathering, base building, controlling attack vehicles in real time. i dont think you could upgrade buildings, and you couldnt control lots of stuff at once, but i’ve never even understood the term RTS anyway haha. Usually its…

Utopia for Intellivision is way older than Herzog Zwei. I don’t know why more people don’t cite it as the earliest. Well, maybe because it was on Intellivision haha

I picked up the first issue of this cause Sean Murphy can draw! Man was it horrible.

well we have a game to get you back in touch...

Should have named it NBA Jelly

Chum salmon (aka dog salmon aka keta salmon) actually do look remarkedly similar to the ones in the video! (short of the bulbous eyes)

plz release on cassette or I’ll be upset

agreed, if they were $5 bucks I’d totally get them, but not $30. Especially since they hold power longer than the DS4s (those are hard enough to keep 4 charged, as they loose charge over time).

no battery, you buy the batteries yourself...

maybe for the extra controllers if you have more than the 2 that come with it. it is always nice to be able to just swap batteries during a party, but 30$ is insane

There have been a couple song choices in this show that have really irked me. Like it’s incredibly embarrassingly cringey to watch, and I watch it alone haha. These characters are much cooler than the song they’re singing along with. However, everything else is great so I can stand 2-3 songs per season that seem out…

seriously I loved the christmas thing too. it was kinda nice to just have the drama (and relief) be more about the characters and not the shadowy organization
