Shows like John Oliver could go 20+ years easily. If he’s happy and making the exact show he wants to make, I don’t see why he wouldn’t keep going. Bill Maher is on season/year 21. And it really can’t be that expensive compared to their other tent poles.
Unless John Oliver is next to get the can, HBO has always been a safe spot for true free speech, and he really pushes the envelope. But they may not have room in their schedule for two shows like his.
For what it’s worth, they do have an Android TV app.
How has HBO been consistently $15 a month for decades it seems, and now suddenly this model requires everyone to hike their prices to hell and back? I think I would be willing to believe that $15/mo is the magic number, except that everyone is rocketing past that now. Now it’s just garbage corporations turning a quick buck for executives and shareholders, as subscribers we aren’t getting any more for our money - there’s no feature release or massive influx of content. What a shit system we have.
It’s a handheld gaming PC a la the Nintendo Switch that runs a custom Linux distro.
Also in defense of Google - I’m still grandfathered in to the $8 plan for YouTube premium because I signed up and have remained subscribed since 2013 when they offered promotional pricing at the beginning of Google Play Music. Years later, they added YouTube Red (now Premium) to the subscription which REALLY sweetened the pot. But they’ve never bumped my subscription price up.
Regrettably, while I could have swiped to upvote, I had to swap hands to downvote you; at least I could still swipe to reply.
That is what I do almost exclusively on Twitter - nobody is there for thoughtful and meaningful discussion, it’s all propaganda and robots.
It’s not about reducing movement, it’s about 1-handability when you’re holding your phone in the other hand and can’t reach across for an upvote. Sync sold me on it instantly when it finally came out.
Ah yes, a flawless solution!
They’re a fund raising tool for the troop, which is very transparent. Nobody is forcing you to buy them, but people love them and do so voluntarily. Where’s the scam?
I’ve got two of Ryan North’s books, “Romeo and/or Juliet” and “To Be or Not to Be” on my bookshelf, but until seeing a Dinosaur Comic again just now, I entirely forgot the connection.
