On the subject of entertainment, I'm always wondering who the hell makes TV programs and broadcasts them to the Rim. Are those local? I can't really imagine a distant extra-system world having an interest in an audience from the Rim.

So who? Bored Archotech with inscrutable reasons? Propaganda from the fallen Empire? Art projects from other colonies?

If so, why don't I have weirdo colonists that start filming themselves and improvise a late show?

who the hell makes TV programs and broadcasts them to the Rim

A cathode ray tube display for showing moving pictures with sound. Even on the rimworlds, there is often an old transmitter running something at least marginally interesting.

A high-tech flat-screen television with crystal-clear image and rich color. Picks up transmissions from ancient satellites and ubiquitous data cards.

So who?

I think that it is the same people who made the sattilites for the orbital power beam targeter.
