The White House thinks two show runners who just signed a $1.5 billion dollar five year deal are hanging on by a thread? Yeah. Sure buddy.
This is the person in charge of US trade deals? 🤦♂️

The end of Colbert’s ‘Late Show’ has implications beyond late-night TV
The facts are these: The highest-rated show on late night was nominated for an Emmy on Tuesday. On Thursday, Paramount/CBS announced its cancellation.
Stephen Colbert announced at the Thursday evening taping of “The Late Show with Stephen Colbert” that he’d found out, only the night before, that his show would be canceled at the end of the season, in May 2026,
and that no one would be replacing him. “I…
Would it not be a good idea if ALL media, newspapers, radio, tv, magazines, podcasts,,etc. were to ignore Trump and his regime for a while? Just don't show up at press conferences at all. Isolate his fragile attention seeking ego.

Wanted: a separate display device to sit under my TV and do nothing but show subtitles.
I guess this isn't easy. The subtitle data isn't in the HDMI output from your streaming device. That's too bad, it'd be relatively straightforward if it was. Could still hack something up but it'd involve customizing the streaming source.

Apples Streamingangebot ist im Vergleich zu Netflix und Prime ein Winzling. Dennoch schaffte eine Show es nun in die US-amerikanischen Halbjahrescharts.

The Alien TV show should have been a sitcom
I don’t want to dwell •too• much on the shadenfreude of Trump’s pitiful parade, but I do think it’s worth just taking this in:
Trump’s political success has always hinged on him knowing how to be a reality TV star, knowing better than the news orgs themselves that political “news” is in fact reality TV, knowing how to manipulate that reality TV show.
And today, he failed at that completely. His reality show sucked. The news of the day just ran right over him. https://kolektiva.social/@Voline/114685755430626127
Watched Severance, both seasons over the course of a week or so. Late to the party there I'm sure.
Wiping your memory when you walk into another room and wondering why you are in there is just a part of getting old I'm afraid 😆
You'd think the innie work personas would object and rebel more really, more like Hellany than the rest. Innies don't get paid, don't get to spend the wages. Pretty easy to get fired from a job really, just don't do the work.
Interesting that nobody was a different sexuality inside vs out, guess that's just fixed by biology huh? No transgender innies either. Maybe that's for season three.
Don't really get Helen's motivation for getting severed at all. Can't go under cover if you wipe your own memory. Can surely do a better job of it all from the outside.
Anyway. Gripping and stylish show, good fun. Nearly as good as everyone says it is.

Have been watching Your Friends and Neighbors on #AppleTVPlus . No masterpiece, and somehow fairly annoying, but still somehow I want to watch all of it. I often find myself fast-forwarding through boring bits, though.
Operating system drama is basically YouTube drama but with way more keyboard clacking and less ukuleles. Friends turn into rivals overnight just because of which OS you use. It is wild to see people treat software choices like reality TV show rivalries.
What makes me even sadder is how something that should come from understanding and research turns into a full-blown philosophical fight. Choosing an OS should be about what works for you, not a reason to start a digital soap opera.
I did really like this show!

Murderbot was so damn good! I have just one tiny complaint. The text was too small. I don’t watch it on a huge 72” TV, so whenever they would show text from SecUnit I’d have to get closer to the screen to read it.
Tomorrow is the start of Toronto Tech Week! That only really coincides with Tech Pizza Monday, as we have decided to not be a part of it, so in the great tradition of TV programs trying to attract an audience by mentioning the show that runs at the same time, we are calling it counterprogramming. If you would like to join us, come over to Victory Cafe, 440 Bloor St. W., at 6 PM on Monday, June 23rd. #Toronto

Those of you who frequently watch TV shows or movies in languages you don’t understand (e.g. with subtitles):
When you recall dialogue in the show/film, do you remember it in the actual language you heard, or in your native language?
just finished the animated TV series “Pantheon” and I must say it's peak. i just wanted to see one episode but now it's 5 AM and I've seen the whole show. please please watch it
There's a woman I know who, when she was pregnant, was very keen to hear the opinions of crystal diviners and homeopath medics on what sex her new baby would be but wouldn't let the ultrasound-scan technician that actually knows tells her because Spoilers.
On that note, I'm happy to watch #doctorWho #badWolf #tv
I love this show - will definitely rewatch because I've just found out that season 4 is available.

Watching MURDERBOT ( the TV show )
It's not the books
But it's pretty fun. Particularly love the Preservation team, who are adorable goofballs, every one.
Still has the delightful combination of emotional competence porn (on the part of Preservation) and miltech competence porn (on the part of Murderbot)
They need each other in ways they don't know.

Maybe it could even guess when you've been around someone, setting aside blocks where your hrv, etc. seem to be fairly uniform...and one could then identify that block as being x or y (could be a person, ones pet, watching a TV show) and then it could watch for similar patterns of measurements and ask if you were in xs proximity again, over time we might find unique signatures associated with specific people, activities, locations?

Tom Petty's 'Square One' was on The Bear in episode 8, I always forget how much I love that song. The things that guy could do with just a guitar and voice- damn. Magical. And then Strange Currencies later on in the episode. A lot of great and sometimes really unique musical choices on the show in general.
