T-Mobile offer cheaper plans without Netflix. Plans that still have all the unlimited data/calling of the Netflix plan. We pay $100 fir two line with them. If I wanted to go to the cheapest plan with Netflix, it would cost me $120 a month…i.e. it’s cheaper for me to stay on my no Netflix plan and pay for Netflix separately.

Isn’t his acquisition a large part of why it has such a heavy debt load in the first place?
Van Gundy was bad, but Mark Jackson is terrible. Yet somehow Mark Jackson still has a job. If ESPN is cleaning house, why not get rid of both of them.
Interesting how all these tech companies are actively making themselves shittier at the same time. Reddit, Google, Twitter, Netflix. It’s like they forgot what made the industry leaders. Why everyone flocked to them over other options.
My gut says that high interest rates have a lot to do with the timing. The era of free money is over and so all these companies are trying to squeeze every dime out of their customers they can. The problem is, this is the internet and their services don’t have to be unique, any one can duplicate what they used to offer. The only reason they are dominant now is because they have gotten so big and did not actively try to tank their service.
Now that they’re actively making things shittier, people will just find an alternative. Speaking of which, is there a federated alternative to youtube? Probably harder to implement do the video file sizes.
Considering I had very low expectations, that looks surprisingly good. The jokes feel in line with the classic series. Some of the story lines (covid/crypto) seem a little on the nose, but I’ll withhold judgement as some of the best episodes of the first revival were pretty 1 for 1 digs at current topics (i.e. eyePhones).
Overall looks better than the lows to which the Simpsons has fallen and it still loks worlds better than Disenchanted. I’ll give it a look when it comes out…just wish it wasn’t on Hulu, I may have ro wait a bit as I don’t currently subscribe.
Facebook has gotten almost unusable lately. I freelance and get a decent number of jobs alerts through various groups I’m a part of, so I have to use it, but it is completely junk now.
I can’t use it to keep up with what friends are up to any more, because in between every post from a friend is two ads and three suggestions for you.
I just want to keep up with friends, find work and keep track of events I’m invited or going to. I can’t do any of that any more without scrolling through pages and pages of shit.
He’d make them better, but I think with Brown Portland’s ceiling is second round exit. Is that really what they’re shooting for?
If that’s the case, they may be better served keeping #3 and trading Lillard. Might have a better actual shot at a championship.
There’s nothing. It’s been slowly getting more and more shitty for years. It’s just been happening so slowly that there wasn’t a breaking point where most of us left until now.
I’ve been casually looking for an alternative for years, because the content has gotten so low effort. There just hasn’t been any good alternatives. I tried Voat, but that got over run with racists and Trumpers almost from the jump.
Lemmy is the first thing I’ve found that seems half decent and it needs to triple ot quadruple it’s engaged user base to really have a shot. Too many posts with no comments or very few. What made reddit special was the comments and interactions. I have hope lemmy can get there, it just needs way more users to do so.
Not if the redditors that leave are the ones that do the majority of the moderating and quality posting. If the quality goes way down, people will look elsewhere. Also, I have a feeling we’ll see a much bigger migration once the third party apps all die on the 30th.
Very cool. Glad yall are able to keep shooting with the strike. I know a lot of productions that have been shut down and a lot of friends out of work right now.
Is that yhe one where a good portion burned down a few years back? Where Westworld shot?
I probably would be one of them, but I paid for a year subscription last November. Once that’s up, I’m probably dumping it for some other service, at least until House of Dragon and The Last of Us come back.
HBO MAX was my favorite service when it launched. It’s slowly lost good content and added shitty low quality reality shows in their place. It still boggles my mind that a company like Discovery could purchase Warner Brothers.
