Answer

1) No, you can't say people's life because "people" is plural so there have to be multiple "lives" as well.

2) "Ever since the television was developed" and "Ever since televisions were developed" basically mean the same thing.

Answer

When it comes to writing or constructing sentences always remember that the subject should always agree with the verb.
singular subject- singular verb
plural subject - plural verb.

And just an advice, dont read multiple articles coz it will really confuse you :)
Stick to one article or ask for recommendations :)

Answer

1. No.
2. Nothing.
