The domestic violence charges were dropped, yes. I’d imagine the dozens of screenshots and saved convos of him leveraging his position to send inappropriate messages to minors was kind of the bigger deal to the company that makes cartoons for teenagers.

A lot of people also fail to realize that despite the “created by” credit Justin Roiland receives, he actually has done less than 5% of the writing across both of those shows. Dan Harmon handles a lot of the writing and direction in addition to a writing team that helps write a majority of the episodes.

Whenever an article critical of NFTs was posted back in the day people would come out of the woodwork defending how valuable and revolutionary they would be and how you just “didn’t get it”. Where are those people now?

The thing is Miyamoto has a weird logic to his madness. My favorite was Donkey Kong Returns on the Wii. Miyamoto tried out an early alpha and noticed a little dust cloud when you jumped so he started jumping up and down to make more dust clouds. after a little bit he apparently said “you should use that effect for a…

Elon Musk Is Once Again Thinking[..]

This is hilariously off the mark. 

You’re a piece of shit my dude

LTT literally tested a prototype in a way that went against the creator’s explicit instuctions on a wrong GPU (despite Billet Labs providing the GPU on which the cooling block prototype was meant to work - which, as it turns out, was also not sent back to BLL), decided not to correct that in any way, then sold (oh,…

Linus consistently painting himself as a victim in his responses is kind of tiring, too. He’s got that sad-faced woe-is-me schtick down cold.

Across all of their channels, they total a weekly average of like 25 videos a week

The fact that the apology video was an EDITED video speaks volumes. Not only does Linus not understand GN’s criticisms (ethics/rushing inaccurate videos for a bottom line), but this mindset is shared by the writers, the editors, and the performers. Let’s be real, 100% this video was a performance. All this could have…

God and Jesus should’ve told him ahead of time to rethink this stupid plan. 

Oh, no, it’s WAY worse than that. Just listen to him:

So once again, blaming your audience rather than blaming what actually is the problem: Poor writing

My heart goes out to all The Gamers(tm) that are still trapped in their own personal 9/11s that her videos placed them in for the last 15 years.

The ideas where *so incredibly* basic, 100 course level, surface-skimming concepts that the fact The Gamers(tm) reacted the way they did still dumbfounds me when I think about it. I cannot think of a single thought experiment more harmless than any concept she discussed.

It really says a lot about the world we’re living in that a woman doing a basic, surface-level feminist reading of video games became such a lightning rod. I haven’t engaged with everything she’s done, but I watched a few of the Tropes v. Women in Video Games videos and it was very mild and friendly. The way people…

Like most things in late-stage C-word, ghost kitchens have had a horrible impact on the restaurant industry and only provided an extra mechanism through which major brands can take advantage of additional resources to further squeeze out smaller local businesses while pretending to be small businesses themselves.

Eddy Burback has a great (if long, 40 minutes long >_> ) video on the whole Ghost Kitchen fiasco, with Mr Beast’s alleged-burgers taking center stage for a good portion of it:
