No, there's an offhand mention or two, but nothing impactful. The most important tie is Pike being aware of his fate, but they recap that pretty thoroughly.

Most people shouldn't buy a home printer at all anymore. Unless you're a crafter or work in a field that still uses lots of paper (i.e. law) they're not worth it.

It's a rapidly shrinking market and HP knows there's no saving it so I guess they're following the cable company playbook.

Squeeze your remaining customers as hard as possible before the music stops

Short answer, maybe, but go through your installed apps first & get rid of crap you don't use. Even if you still decide to do a factory reset, no sense re-downloading garbage apps. Your phone is still modern enough it shouldn't feel slow day-to-day so it's probably one or more shitty apps causing the problem.

The original showrunner eventually posted how he intended the story to go. It's a fun quick read about the better show that never got made:

Surely this will win back all of the advertisers uncomfortable with what a cesspool of bigotry and conspiracy theories Xitter has become.

Because then the ISPs would have to respond to changing customer preferences and spend their own money on infrastructure improvements to meet the new demand.

Or they can lobby/bribe the government to demand fees from wealthy tech companies.

Guess which one's cheaper.

They're not late. I've been using Fire Sticks for years and Amazon has been working hard the whole time to shove more and more ads all over the UI. The main row of apps gets smaller with every update and more and more ads are plastered around and between them to try to sell you more shit you don't want or already have.

I managed to jailbreak mine before they locked them down and install a custom launcher so they're actually usable, but the stock UI is god-awful. I'll be replacing them once the next round of Apple TVs come out.

Interesting customer retention move for a service that hasn't been able to make much new content for the past six months and is about to see its new releases dry up.

His only crime to them was not marrying her after he trafficked her.

Oh, they don't care about that. Conservative men can molest and rape whoever they like with no obligation to marry anybody.

Humans are terrible batteries/fuel cells. And Orpheus said the machines had fusion power. It makes far more sense that the machines were using humans for computing, not basic metabolism. It's been mentioned that this was the Wachowskis' original intention but the suits made them dumb it down for audiences to understand but I haven't found any direct quotes about that.

Georgia law also requires that the accused "Poses no significant risk of intimidating witnesses or otherwise obstructing the administration of justice."

I'm really interested in how they're going to address that one given Trump's history of intimidating witnesses, juries and obstructing the administration of justice..

What makes you think a monarchy would do anything to combat a corpo hellscape? If history's any indication, they'd probably make all the CEOs lords and turn everybody else into an indentured peasantry.
