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.
Shit race walking is significantly more complicated than I thought…
Great story, thanks for sharing!
They didn’t accidentally do shit. They ignored the consequences of their decisions for profit at the expense of everyone else. You don’t get to make $100 billion dollars and feign ignorance about how you got it and the damage you caused to obtain it.
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.
Same here. Had it for years and it’s always been great. Eventually paid for Pro to support them.
And there’s an absolute firehouse of propaganda to make them think that way too. It’s exhausting.
Earth is approx 3.26 billion miles from Pluto. This is also about how far above the point of The Colbert Report was in relation to your head.
Not only would I be willing to give them a trophy, give them a fucking parade, shout-out at the next SOTU, let them sign the original constitution or some shit, whatever the fuck these mentally ill people need to stop destroying society.
Hell keep a leaderboard of who “produced” the most wealth and let them compete with each other. The winner every year gets their name carved in a new " Stanley Cup of Captalism" (the hockey one, not the crazy white lady one). All of that shit would be infinitely cheaper than having billionaires around.
I’m thinking we do the ol’ floating Zordon head projection thing the Power Rangers have going on.
I would kill for an IMAX run of Kubrick films. Favorite director of all time and I’ve never been able to see any of his films in a theater. That first shot from The Shining in IMAX sounds like heaven.
I thought Annabelle Creation was okay, but that’s really the only one that’s worth checking out IMO.
Ronald Regan at the end of his second term then.
100% agree. I’m not gonna say the average consumer is a genius, but they aren’t that stupid. It’s insulting.
They’re also saying that you can’t use communication with his administration against him. The place where you would be most likely to find evidence that an act was unofficial has been ruled off limits by these asshats. It’s a lot worse than it seems.
