Is the death of television (TV) as a technology upon us ?

[dicknixon72]

PF is peak clown world with its 40 TVs, purple colors, and lunk alarm with statements about men in tank tops carrying water jugs while ignoring women exposing everything. It's a total joke.

The only thing admirable is it's low cost which helps to push lower income people into fitness which can be some type of motivation towards a better life.

The comments are based...

"You know what's exponentially more annoying than some dudes grunting at the gym? A -------- air raid siren."

"Planet Fitness: "You're being too loud."
Also Planet Fitness: Uses tornado warning siren to replace the noise of normal gym activities."

"When the lunk alarm goes off, it actually means you graduated from planet fitness and can now move to a real gym"

"Lunk alarm is actually pretty goated. If it goes off, it means that you're making gains and the staff is just making sure that everyone knows that you're built different."

Do you guys think television will completely disappear or die as a technology and communication medium once the boomer generation is gone, or will it live on ?

Many popular youtube stars, podcasters, and other internet video formats already have 10 times as many viewers than television does, so I'cant see TV as a communication medium surviving past 2030. It's just isn't financially viable anymore.

Boomers are the only generation that just can't ever let go of their TVs, and cannot seem to function unless they watch some mainstream television every day. However, most people under 60 years of age (Generation X, Millennials, and Gen Z) nowadays get their news, entertainment, and coverage of live events from the internet and video livestreams.

People under 60 may "use" a TV to watch something from the internet on a bigger screen, but fewer and fewer of these actually want to pay extra for a cable subscription, or pay for a TV licence to their respective governments.

Perhaps TV will go the way of radio.....something that still will still exist, but that very few people will actually pay much attention to.

Never paid a penny for cable in my life, never will, nor for subscriptions. I also tell other people to do this if they bring it up in conversation. A television has replaced social gatherings and family time as the center of the household, and is one of the main vehicles used to seep apathy and nihilism into peoples lives. Having a small TV for a gaming console and a dvd player to or to connect your laptop to watch banned and censored videos with your friends is the only reason I keep one around, a much older one too, not a tube TV, but definitely no flat screen. Millennial and gen-z kids don't even know how to operate one. The advent of the phones with screens to watch everything made it unnecessary to have a TV around, but instead of it being in your home, now the degeneracy is in everyone's pockets 24/7. Many things will die off when the boomers are gone, perhaps TV will be one of them, in its main use. Not to count other similar applications of television like CCTV which will not go away.

According to Lt. Commander Data TVs will not last much longer after the year 2040.

TV is the feudalism of audiovisual content (children of celebrities were more likely to be famous than ordinary people).

Manipulated and omitted news!

There are few open (free) channels.

Political correctness took over from Brazilian TV in the 2000s!

They expose too many tragedies in search of a few more points in the audience.

They suggest guidelines through specific subjects.
