I got curious and did some quick searching. Looks like it depends greatly on the content and network with dramas usually having shorter breaks than sitcoms. The Big Bang Theory for instance averaged 17 minutes apparently.
One interesting factoid I found was that The Wizard of Oz, which is 101 minutes long, took up a 120 minute block in the 60s unedited but a 180 minute block today with edits to make it shorter.
Millennial here: don’t come back until dark wasn’t exclusive to GenX.
3 minute commercial break? So like TV from 60s?
Last I heard the average sitcom comes in at 16 minutes for a 30 minute block.
Plex and Jellyfin are DVRs. They just do other things too.
Argentina, for those wondering.
I don’t know who this “we” is. I did everything I was supposed to for the last 30+ years. So I accept no blame for the current situation.
Won’t load with adblockers. That’s a new one for me. I’ve never seen a site simply refuse to load like that.
The Voyagers were the first spacecraft that could be reprogrammed after launch. When they launched the technology to get pictures back from Neptune and Uranus didn’t exist yet nor had the code Voyager needed to do it been written yet.
Didn’t they undo that?
“Junk it!!!”
Please stop writing shit like this like those of us reading it have any control over the situation. Russia will not be my “buddy.”
We don’t really have less laws. Just far less enforcement mechanisms. For instance I am supposed to be able to use my own modem, the FCC rules prevent ATT from forcing me to rent a modem. But the FCC hasn’t given a shit about anything since the 80s. So ATT forces me to rent a modem. Laws are only as good as their enforcement.
I didn’t know those were back in stock!
II’m sure you’re joking, but it’s probably worth pointing out that very little about our society has changed in the last hundred years or so.
Being part of nature doesn’t make your behavior natural.
Humans existed on this planet for thousands of years without releasing massive amounts of carbon.
Don’t forget insanely lucky and well off enough to afford a masters degree before you’re in your 30s.
I once worked for a company that told me that I could have meetings all day because I had all night to finish my code. This was the same company that told me that if I even thought about a client outside of work hours that I should still charge that client. Even they didn’t require a note.
Getting back on my meds is what helped me get back into college and get a degree. I am angry for you that you are being treated this way.
Now you are just being a troll.
Interesting, it does for me now too. I tried it again to get a screenshot. Earlier it gave me an otherwise blank page with a message that said something to the effect of “Part of the site could not load. Turn off your ad blocker and refresh the page.”
