I don't know what that saying means, but I hate the Trump administration I promise. I hate FUD too though. More FUD = less energy to spend on the actual battles that need to be fought. I have my own mental health diagnosis and currently live in my parent's spare property so what OP said would personally impact me if true. I can't find where it's stated though.

A chef is only as good as his ingredients!
Geordi outright told them he looks at the cards, but only after the hand is over. I would still argue that counts as cheating since it lets him get a better idea for when the others are bluffing.
Sorry, /s means sarcastic. If anything I would absolutely expect them to pay for multiple mixes/masters given what's been said about how people consume it.
I'm not sure but Dolby Atmos might be responsible for some of it. Dolby Atmos lets the engineers assign coordinate values to each "sound object" in the scene, then your receiver takes that information, along with the room calibration mic info and your speaker layout, and actually generates the channels itself based on the listeners position within the scene. As an example, if an object is moving from front to rear then the engineers no longer have to pan it between channels, just tell the coordinate system that the sound is moving "that way" and let the receiver take care of it. Maybe engineers just aren't putting as much work into making discrete channel audio mixes anymore when the "gold standard" no longer uses discrete channels/tracks.
In the early days of television, directors really only had the choice of using theater trained actors since those were all that existed. Theater actors are trained to speak in that way so that they can be clearly understood on stage even without mics. But people don't actually speak that way, and modern directors seem to have a preference for "natural performances" so I wouldn't necessarily blame the actors. They may just be doing what they've been directed to do.
ah yes, the forbidden curl hack
What would be the alternative? You don't really expect the streaming companies to pay for TWO masters do you!? (/s if it wasn't obvious)
Everyone here needs to watch Palm Springs.
This is more or less the plot to Palm Springs. Dude gets stuck in a time loop the day of his cheating girlfriend's friend's wedding that he doesn't wanna be at, full of people he doesn't know, in the middle of the desert. It's implied that he was stuck in there for hundreds of years because he knows every intimate detail about everyone in town pretty much.
According to the sources in the Wikipedia article, in the US at least, the term de-banking wasn't even in popular use until some right-wing nutjobs started claiming that the government was using it to shut down conservative "tech" companies, and then latched onto by people like Joe Rogan and Elon Musk to scam people into replacing their bank accounts with crypto currency.
