2. Adit is Adult, so Why does Adit still Refuse to Get Simple Divorce with his Wife Mangal etc?(124.123.167.230 (talk) 10:15, 30 August 2024 (UTC)).[reply]

Mangal Lakshmi is fiction. It is not real. Fiction is always incomplete. This means that if your question is not answered within that fiction (I can't bothered to try to comprehend the wall of text in that article), there is no answer. Shantavira|feed me 12:23, 30 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
That's not simply because it's fiction, but because it's a soap opera, and has only been running for six months, and isn't in English, so deep literary criticism of its storyline would probably be hard to find (though I must admit I haven't tried). In contrast, if the question was "why does Macbeth so unhesitatingly murder Duncan's servants right after his great trepidation about murdering Duncan," I could find references (absent from the article).  Card Zero  (talk) 15:41, 30 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Angry 😡 I do not care if it is fiction.

Criteria for percent of "households" with Apple TV+

[edit]

I'm using Apple TV+ in the United States for this example, but I think this refers to any subscription service. I read numbers between 6% and 11% of U.S. households have Apple TV+ subscriptions. What is the criteria? What are they considering a "household"? Thinking of some extremes... If a prison gets Apple TV+ subscription for the inmate common room, does that count as one houseold? If four people in a house each get subscriptions because they are just roommates and don't share services, is that one household or four households? I'm trying to increase the context around the statistics to make sense of it. If I threw a rock into a crowd, what is the probability that the person I hit would have an Apply TV+ subscription? Honestly, I've never met anyone with an Apple TV+ subscription. Even to this day, if I mention something from Ted Lasso, I always get blank stares because nobody I've ever met has heard of the show. But, if was a Netflix show, everyone knows about it. 75.136.148.8 (talk) 13:40, 30 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Presumably they simply count each subscription as representing a household. I don't see how else they would determine the numbers. In any case "household" is a very vague term. They simply think it sounds better for marketing than "people". Shantavira|feed me 13:54, 30 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
See Household; it's a commonly-used term in statistical studies. Xuxl (talk) 14:12, 30 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I doubt that anyone would seriously try to call a prison a "household". In this context, a prison is classified as an "institutional setting" along with hospitals, college dormitories, long term care facilities, homeless shelters, military barracks and the like.
