  • I used to hate the weekly model when streaming became popular, but I think people are better viewers when they watch weekly. It's easier to have ongoing water cooler conversations about each episode, so your show gets consistent buzz. Plus you don't have the extreme of a whole year+ to wait between seasons. If a classic show ended in May you could start a new season in September. By the time most modern shows have new seasons, I forgot 40% of what I saw last season.

  • Janeway: "half of my crew can be terrorists"

  • The most illegal alien. Smallville had an episode where Clark helped hide an undocumented migrant. His mom tried to chastise him and he had to remind her his own paperwork is shady as hell.

  • If the last season had never happened it would be debatable. I'd have probably given the edge to Jamie.

  • I think I need sleep. I thought you were writing that you got $30 million after your divorce. I was wondering who you were complaining to.

    On a serious note. Are you ok?

  • nothing will come close to the cultural impact that the original had.

    That's part of the reason why I probably wouldn't recommend old trek first to somebody. We don't have the benefit of being able to go back to the cultural moment of the '60s Trek.

    I compare it to how Wizard of Oz is a great movie, but you can't really experience the transition to color that happened in the movie the same way someone in 1939 did. Plenty of TV shows were still in black and white all the way into the '60s.

  • Based on the interview, it's easier for me to believe the first option.

    I think someone showed him the annotated picture and that person never believed he'd think the ms13 was literally part of the tattoo. Once he asserted it, who in his camp is going to tell him he's wrong?

  • It probably did, but not before it got a couple sequels*. The other YA adaptations were just that bad.

    *Their ambitious part one of the final movie was a terrible decision though.

  • Probably the 2nd best YA fantasy movie adapted from a book in its era. I'll never not be disappointed by The Giver, but I think they had a hard task to accomplish. É

  • Oh my damn. I wrote it and still misread it. You're right.

  • I figured she lives somewhere expensive, but I probably should've used a different word. I just decided to Google and given that she lives in NYC the money doesn't go as far there as it would in rural West Virginia. I've known people who make 100k in NYC that live with multiple roommates.

  • I don't think we can conclude it's 0 from what she wrote. He says he pays Ashley 500k a month and a flat 2.5 million. She says he stopped paying most of it.

    I'll assume he's being less than honest because of specific credibility issues. If she's being honest, she gets 250k hard maximum a year. My guess is it's actually something like 100k. That amount, while survivable, seems very ungenerous for the richest man in the world and it's enough of a drop from 500k that you would definitely be forced to change your purchases.

    EDIT: huge error. misread per month as per year.

  • Every major Internet site should be. Why do TV ads get vetted by the FCC and Internet ads don't? A growing portion of the population doesn't even watch broadcast TV anymore.

  • Genius

    Jump
  • Horror

    Jump
  • Why didn't you drop the quotes from Turing, Minsky, and Lovelace?

  • I'd gamble a larger percentage of artists (whether music, acting, or painting) have affluent beginnings than the general population. It's easier to rise through the struggle of a high risk profession if you have a safety net.

  • Don't put the squeeze on the voters. They either didn't vote for trump, or they were so dumb that they did vote for trump won't understand why their electric bill went through the roof.

    The whole point of democracy is the voters have an impact. If nothing changes for the voters don't be surprised when they vote for the same party next time.

  • This is an aerial view of Barbara Streisand's Malibu home. The other dude seems to be referencing the Streisand effect.
