That said, I think it would be safe to say that 80's music has more in common with current contemporary music than 50's music had in common with 80's music. I’m willing to bet the divide between pre-60's and 60's/post-60's music (specifically, the rise in popularity of “rock music” during the 60's) is the reason.

No need. The AGPBL didn’t fold until after the 1954 season (heck, the league’s biggest season wasn’t until 1948, 3 years after the end of WW2).

GameStop didn’t raise $1 billion from the sale of its meme stock. The article’s caption you’re quoting is misinterpreting the graph of GameStop’s stock price.

It was initially supposed to premier last Wednesday, but they pushed it to Friday not long before the premier (perhaps to take advantage of Memorial Day weekend in the US?). Then everyone assumed it would simply be a Friday show, but it appears going forward the regular release day was moved back to Wednesday.

Maverick would be forced to retire at age 60 - not be sent to train guys.

It was always by household in the fine print, they just didn’t enforce in during their boom years. Now that their revenue is dipping, they’re exploring ways to enforce it.

Moreover, how could they distinguish from valid subscribers who travel a lot for business.

I don’t read her quote as positively as you do. Rather, it appears they’re creating a scapegoat (Johnson being too busy) to blame on the reason his Star Wars films are never made (or at least not made by him, perhaps keeping only his story and him as a producer) to try and make it look like they aren’t giving into the …

In simple terms, coins were “created” through mining (running equations, basically just uselessly burning electricity and processing power). When an equation is “solved”, the person whose computer “solved it” is awarded a coin, which they could then sell to others. That first person whose computer “solved it” got the…

It’s not the same thing. If the problem was serialized storytelling, it would be endemic and most (if not all) serialized story telling would be bad. It’s not.

Guys, Musk hasn’t acquired Twitter.

*Trading in the stock exchange can be speculation, but generally isn’t.

I agree that Disco and Picard are poorly paced, but I don’t blame that on serialized story telling, I blame it on bad writing. In S2 of Picard (just as an example), they’ve effectively tried to take a story that should only fill 3ish episodes and are stretching it out to 10. That’s not an issue with serialized story…

There’s always a price drop just before/after the announcement of the new iPhone as third-party resellers try to clear their stock. If Apple continues the 13 line (they don’t always continue last year’s line), that will see a price drop too as the prior year frequently (but not always) becomes a “budget” phone. But…

This is both hysterical and sad....hysterically sad?

Aziz had a widely publicized negative story spread about him with respect to his alleged sexual misconduct (whether or not the allegations were true/false, properly presented/exaggerated doesn’t matter to this discussion).

It was pretty common back in the network era for a show to be cancelled after one or two episodes and never heard from again. But most of these streaming shows run for at least one season, even if nobody seems to be watching.

This. If the first two Fantastic Beasts movies even held a candle to any of the Harry Potter movies, then this film would have done just as well as the Potter films.

They’ve never moved their filming location. Alexandria (supposed to be a part of Alexandria, VA) is filmed a block from the Town of Woodbury (which was close to Hershel’s farm (s2) and the Prison (s3-4).

As soon as he starts selling, the price will crater. There is no way he will find enough buyers willing to pay an inflated price for them once he announces that he is selling.
