Cool, didn’t know that.
I mostly think of them as that thing that nobody actually owns - hence the surprise of myself and presumably the other hundreds of people that upvoted my comment.

Frankly, I’m most shocked that Roku had over 2800 employees.

It’s absurd that anyone is downvoting you for saying this let alone in these numbers while simultaneously anyone who is speculating wildly gets upvotes because “hyuck hyuck police dumb, amirite?”.

Harry Kim? He can’t even nail down one of the Delaney sisters - and you expect me to trust him with a starship?

Right? Goodbye stupid old cable! Now all that content and convenience can be yours only for astronomical constantly increasing prices with advertisements by default - we sure have come a long way!

Saw it for the first time just this past Friday at a candlelight screening in an old cathedral with a live organ doing the score.
It was awesome!

Hey to each their own. Personally, I felt like he just constantly made the most obvious jokes possible and that was made worse by his delivery.
Also, not his fault, but some of the worst correspondents I’d ever seen. If I have to hear that one guy make one more Asian joke…

Make movies. Write. Do stand up. Who knows? But anything beats doing a mediocre show that you know you’ve never really made your own.
I gave up on the Trevor Noah Daily Show about a week after he started. Checked it out one more time about a year later and still couldn’t do it. My partner kept up with it somewhat regularly via YouTube for years.
When we found out he was leaving we both had the same reaction - we couldn’t believe he had been doing it for seven years because it always felt like he still hadn’t found his groove. In both our minds he was still “just getting his footing” - but that can be an excuse for a 1-2 years at the very best. Seven, though?
He’s smart to move on before his career is totally tanked.

Ok - but why did that mean it had to also be bad?
