Still might be. It’s a $3500 device. Just because it’s getting press doesn’t mean it’s going to be successful.
There’s a great NPR podcast about this.
The Gecko effect.
I much prefer the trickle of releases to a lump season dump.
It allows time to digest, discuss and catch up throughout the release schedule if you’re invested in the story. You can convince your friends to watch a few episodes to catch up and then watch the end of the season together. You can read fan theories online, formulate your own, and overall each weekly episode can result in a lot of engaging fun interactions.
With a series dump you have to binge it and wait for others to do the same in order to talk about it. The whole time you’re actively avoiding spoilers from friends/coworkers and avoiding reading about it online. The end result is you disengage from the fandoms/communities while you are getting through the show, which to me takes a lot of the fun out of a big show.
I compare the difference between Stranger Things and GoT. To me these are probably two of the most significant pop-culture releases in the last decade or so.
Game of Thrones resulted in hundreds of thousands of theories every week online and in public. T-Shirts were made based on popular online theories that never panned out in season. You would rag on friends who guessed the plot twist wrong and deify those who got their predictions spot on. Especially in my demographic the two months GoT was on was all about GoT.
Stranger Things on the other hand, while still wildly popular hits differently. It’s much more of a build up to release, a week or two of “man that was awesome” followed by “I hope they make the next season soon.” Retroactive discussions happen for a while, but the discussions and the hype fizzles much more quickly.
If I want to watch a trickle release show in one dump, I still can, I just wait until the whole season out, reactivate the subscription. Then I binge it.
For me it’s much more fun to have an episode or two a week and build momentum through a season than it is to set off a one time firework.
There’s nothing wrong with buying early access games. You as a buyer just need to be happy with the current state of the game at the time of purchase.
Sports. I can get a hundred tweets of highlights almost instantly on Twitter.
They tore down most of the mall. It’d be nice for them to do something on the abandoned lot of rubble.
Thank goodness someone posted this video. I was about to be very disappointed.
Sports media all around is still heavily invested in Twitter and has shown no signs of even looking at alternate platforms.
I have no data to back this up, but I seem to find that regions at Northern latitudes tend to have higher rates of alcoholism. I think it has something to do with long winter nights and people being able to find a sense of community in a pub/bar/Ratskeller after the sun goes down at 16:00 for half the year.
The US is much further south than most of Europe AND there are large regions that are very anti-alcohol due to religious reasons.
Pranks can 100% be harmless and fun, but if you’re ever questioning whether or not a prank is harmless don’t do it.
Basically everything Just for Laughs does is gold. You can spend hours watching their videos.
I go for a variation of this if a coworker leaves their computer unlocked when they leave for lunch or the day.
Screenshot their whole desktop, hide all icons and the toolbar. Set the background to the screenshot. Boom a computer that looks exactly the same as before but doesn’t work.
Quick, non permanent, takes a few minutes to work out, lesson learned to not leave your machine unlocked.
They took it down. The Mod team said people were spamming it with CP. Fucking assholes.
Especially because he could have bought it for so much less.
Never ascribe to malice what can be ascribed to stupidity.
It also wasn’t really successful before he came in either. It rarely was profitable and usually operated at a loss.
I mean Musk has seemingly made every bad move imaginable, I can only imagine the ideas he’s been talked out of.
Conservation of momentum is based on Newton’s first law which states “a body at rest tends to stay at rest” so that would imply A. not B.
Those dudes were just chilling, and would still be laying there chilling.
I can get reposts every couple of hours on here.
He offered Twitter more money than the company was worth with no due diligence.
The leadership of the board could have been sued by shareholders if they didn’t push Elon to actually pay over market value.
The end goal of any for profit leadership is to make as much money as possible and exit.
