People don’t prefer video for a lot of styles of content. They often find it more annoying. However, regardless of that, people engage with video more from an advertising perspective. Both are likely related to the same process. We can’t help but give it more of our attention when presented with it. So when it is…

Ever consider that.. well a LOT of the topic in the GMG network are somewhat escapist and entertaining and turning them into a waterfall of bitching about white people might not be wholly consistent with why the audience is there?

Yes you can, that jacket is awful. However, you can’t blame Trump for it.

Except if you go into a kia or hyundai dealership, the problem isn’t lack of attention. The problem is Acres of bullshit and spending a shitload of time trying to confuse you with dishonest sales tactics rather than just selling a car.

You’ve got that backwards. The overwhelming force stuff likely originated in LA. They were famous for things like “if one shot is justified, unloading the whole magazine is justified”. There being no situation a SWAT team wasn’t a viable response to. They were WAY ahead of the curve on militarization of the police.…

Working on a broken car takes most of the fear of failure away. It’s already broken. Way different level of concern than doing maintenance on your daily driver.

Well, not Amazon directly, but Amazon via woot. Apparently someone set up an account with my name and address, and ordered a crappy 50" TV shipped to said address. No idea why. It arrived totally destroyed. So I got stuck having to get the stupid thing to someplace that would dispose of e-waste.

Sorry, but your perspective is seriously skewed. Yes, the 80% number is irrelevant to people who already own EVs. But it’s advertising, it’s not for the people who own them, it’s for people who might be interested. Right now there’s a large audience that’s interested, but they can’t afford to drop a spare 35k+ on a…

Is it just me or is that super straps thing just “fixing” the fact you haven’t adjusted your straps on your pack to the proper length? Which is of course free rather than $50.

Look, stock prices haven’t been based on a company’s accomplishments for at least a decade now. The value is in how much people are moving into or out of the stock.

And your line is different than someone else’s. Even for your line, where is it drawn really? Is hate speech against neo-nazis ok or not ok? For pedophilia, does that include or not the creepy and unnerving but not really sexual (and thus is in no way legally problematic or actionable) shit that youtube is trying to…

bought a 2005 legacy gt in regal blue. I had to chase it down myself. Dealers had ZERO interest in swapping near identical inventory from less than an hour away to help.

I know it is cool to hate on SUVs around here, but most vehicles performed like shit on the driver side small overlap test when introduced. That was the point. It was the kind of accident the insurance companies were paying out more than they like on for injuries. Most companies fixed it by adding deflection plates to…

dear god, the total bullshit.

How is saying that boys should be allowed to attend saying that people don’t need to see themselves reflected in media and popular culture? First, the role models would still be women, so girls would see role models like themselves. Your logic breaks down fundamentally right there. Second, if the lack of participation…

Having known a lot of folks with advanced degrees and working in various science and science related fields, you can definitely pick and choose your science. The human mind is quite capable of cruising along full tilt while totally contradicting itself. So it does quite often.

Look, at the end of who give s a flying fuck about the content of twitch you run into chat roulette. Nobody wants it to be chat roulette. SO we will get these articles about where the line gets drawn because people are going to disagree.

It doesn’t ruin it when it is scripted. It ruins it if it FEELS scripted and forced. Their antics have always been scripted. Their group dynamic and interpersonal chemistry usually doesn’t feel so.

While it may be in #2, it is financially screwed, which is usually not good for the creative talent behind it. Oprah doesn’t need to worry, because she’s Oprah, but If you are making a name for yourself in the production, it’s probably going to hurt unless the studio was making it for other reasons than money. (I.e.…

It’s because it involves manhatten. EVERYTHING is built out. Someone owns it, and that someone has shit tons of money. It also means the ones building it OWE shit tons of money. It also means the ones in charge of the one’s building it run for office in a market where campaigns cost shit tons of money. This means…
