It was my understanding from the discourse that the Try Guy (individual) is bad because he cheated on his wife, but the Try Guys (organization) are actually good because they kicked him out as this was against their values.

I will not be looking any further into this.

ultrafilter: Aug 23, 2007; It's okay if you have any questions.

The Try Guy was having an affair with an employee of the company he owns which makes all of this much more legally exciting.

i mean, the implied argument here is that adults shouldnt pay attention to what is now basically the world's largest television network that has teraflops of compute power dedicated to how to trick children into watching hate speech

we're not like writing essays (or making 40 minute youtube videos) about it, but staying abreast of the gossip in case actually dangerous or bad things come across isnt a bad thing

I read the cspam internet warriors thread because I don't know who *any* of the people mentioned/having tweets reposted actually are, but I find the amount of drama kind of fascinating.

just endless parade of internet "personalities" going nuts at each other like a message board flame war in the late 90s

no it isn't. there is no implied argument. it's what i said: technology is advancing. people are advancing with it. i'm not. that makes me feel old. and tired.

when only children care about a thing, it is possible to dismiss it as childish. when generally put-together adults care about it and you dismiss it as unimportant, that's a real good sign you're fuckin old

if youre reading me telling people to stop caring about things into that, it has more to do with the reader than the text

yeah all this proves is that streaming is now first-class media alongside music, movies, tv, sports, etc. people have eaten up stupid celebrity drama with a spoon for centuries, but it was always names from one of those other categories until now

"i want to be a youtube streamer when i grow up" is no different from "i want to be an actor/model/tv host" like kids have said forever. it's just as dumb and shallow and just as harmless, at the surface level at least. it isn't ruining their brains any more than mtv etc.

the nazis on youtube do make internet streaming a little more pernicious than tv back in the day, though, imo.

i find it very interesting that shows seem to be going back to a weekly schedule for a lot of things. i really do feel like i enjoy a show more when i watch one episode a week for a few months than three or four a night for a few days.

there are still shows where i'll wait until i can watch them all (eg better call saul) but overall i'm glad to be going back to weekly releases and hope the trend continues.

# ? Sep 29, 2022 02:02

Achmed Jones: Oct 16, 2004

im hoping a knock-on effect will be more episodic stuff rather than overarching prestige storylines. obviously the big shows that started the whole prestige _thing_ were weekly so it isn't a slam dunk but i'm still hoping.
