If a frog had wings would it bump it’s ass when it hopped? That’s about as relevant as this question.

Brutal!

Whisper excitedly under your breath, “here’s another one, chat!”

Take out your phone and pretend to look at it while you side-eye them aggressively. Everyone loves that!

I love the xl cups

Probly cause it was a weirdly hateful and aggressive response to a shitpost. I dunno. We have clay tablets about how weird and fad driven the younger generations are. You aren’t supposed to understand the young, this is just some doomer ass “this time is different!” BS. Every few gens there is gonna be a new disruptive thing that’s really gonna do it this time. I don’t buy it.

The bitter people beginning or entirely feeling out of touch start this trash, but they aren’t worse than the people who tell you they are part of the youth and they don’t get it either. That’s pick-me ass behavior. Let these people live.

I don’t want to dehuminize her (but here goes), but my dog has blue eyes that have 1000x the emotion this lady’s does. And she’s supposedly angry, she gives me uncanny valley.

Even the picture of her is AI

Obviously take this with a grain of salt. I’ve seen multiple people on YouTube say that both videos and shorts were opted in to AI filters being used in their channel for “touch ups.” I saw at least one person had to re-upload the video because they were unable to remove the filter.

Think it’s in the interest of YouTube, or any other content creation platform that allows their creators to leverage the platforms own AI tools, for the consumer to NOT be able to tell who is and who isn’t using those tools.

Linus’ employees were the ones trying to use the GN name to up their own reputation, GN called them on that and it ripped the company apart. They had to put in the new CEO, they last floatplane subs. In that whole back and forth, GN made like 2 vids and Linus was permanently affected.

During the honey thing, like dozens of creators called out Linus for not blowing the whistle publically on honey when he knew exactly that they were doing months before the news broke. LINUS hyper focused on GN talking about it because GN had already hurt them so badly.

It’s a feedback loop where Linus knows which knife cuts him the deepest, so he’s focused on blunting that edge. It’s transparent at best.

I genuinely can’t imagine feeling that way. GN produces a crazy amount of hardware related content. They delivered a near fatal blow to Linus’ ego because of how silly the comparison of the Linus slophouse compared to GN was when it happened. But like the number of times GN has covered Linus compared to the damage they did is incredible. Count the coverage on one hand for GN vs the evisceration LTT experienced.

You know GN doesn’t give a shit when they didn’t even cover the jet, or several of the highest profile on camera employees leaving. Which is free money. I think I see people who see GN as solely anti-Linus as approaching from poor faith. Which maybe some other people do as well.

This is a crossing the Rubicon moment for Trump. The entire maga apparatus understands that at least the pretense of consequences await them if another group takes over, that includes people who have been fired or left. It happened to them the last time. They know this time the other side is getting voted in on consequences, and they know the other side knows they have a year or two post election to do it, or else they already risk getting wiped out in the midterms just like the situation that republicans find themselves in now.

It’s life or death right now for a lot of members of this admin, and they are gonna act like that. Good luck us.
