Netflix Live

PRESENTED BY TIME-LINE

It’s Tuesday, FutureParty people. Did you know that scientists out of South Africa have revived an extinct, horse-like mammal called a quagga? It’s wild how far genetic engineering has come, proving that Colossal’s plan to bring back the woolly mammoth may not be so insane after all. But some researchers are a little more skeptical, saying that the new quagga is really just a less stripey zebra. So, maybe we should expect a less woolly mammoth… whatever that may be.

Netflix is ramping up its push into live TV with a growing slate of programs that could catapult the streamer into dominating the exact model it disrupted.

The Big Picture: Netflix has officially won the streaming wars. By making live TV a new cornerstone for the company, Netflix could ensure that advertising revenue is juiced from all its customers… not just subscribers to its growing ad tier.

Behind The Scenes: Netflix is on the final stretch up the experimental phase of its live TV ambitions.

Closing Credits: Network and cable TV were moneymakers for so long due to ad revenue — ads were guaranteed to be seen because those were the only outlets available, and live events and competitions were considered marquee moments. That’s no longer the case as viewers have increasingly cut the cord.

Ad tiers are bringing some of that revenue back, but most users are subscribed to premium plans to avoid seeing ads. Since Netflix plans to put ads on live programs — regardless of users’ subscription plans — the rich returns of linear TV could be streaming’s for the taking.

As we age, our muscles naturally lose mass, strength, and functionality, which can lead to fatigue and weakness beginning as early as our 30s.

Recent studies indicate that our mitochondria — the cellular powerhouses that generate 90% of our energy — play a crucial role in this decline, contributing to reduced muscle function as we age.

Mitopure by Timeline is clinically shown to meaningfully boost our mitochondrial health to improve muscle strength and endurance without any change in exercise required.

Amazon is preparing a pair of smart glasses for its delivery drivers that could turn the workforce into optimized package drop-off machines.

Why It Delivers: Last-mile delivery is considered the most difficult and costly part of shipping, as drivers have to navigate through neighborhoods and apartment complexes to complete orders. By putting navigation and logistics info literally on their faces, Amazon could shave valuable time off of routes.

Between The Packages: Amazon’s internal-use smart glasses are essentially a heads-up display for delivery dominance.

The Future: Amazon stresses that the tech is still in development, and Reuters reports that battery life, comfort, visual fatigue, and the need to collect a lot more geographical data are still issues. But with delivery drivers completing roughly 100 drops per shift, the successful implementation of the glasses across Amazon’s fleet could deliver record returns… the good kind.

88.4% of you voted No in yesterday’s poll: Did the media influence your vote in the US presidential election?

“I was influenced by the need to protect my fundamental human rights.”

“Unfortunately, most media algorithms seem to amplify topics of interest and don’t provide a balanced approach to news or editorial content. Once you’re ‘pegged,’ I fear getting a balanced delivery of content is tough. In the end, media amplification does little to assist in real decision-making.”

“I vote on the policies the candidates put forward. Don’t need any media spin.”

“I predict that many will answer No, but the reality is more complicated.”

“I used media to gather information and then sort so I knew facts — isn’t that what media is for?”
