Regulations haven't even stopped YouTube from sending fake AI medical ads to your family members.

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.

Even English doesn't have one size fits all rules. Language is social and regional. If one English speaking country pronounces zebra as "zee-bra" and another pronounces it as "zeh-bra" they're both right.

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.

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.
