A Western defence source confirmed to the BBC the footage shows a Challenger 2 tank and that all crew survived.

Tank did it's job, then.

But his support for riling the base up was of the Tea Party, not MAGA, flavour.

That seems like a distinction without a difference.

Not to mention it solves nothing for the mass shooting epidemic. Most of them seem suicidal anyway.

Because they're a disorganized clusterfuck and he couldn't be bothered to slightly delay filming to get the proper card. Because for whatever reason they've decided they must churn out content at such a high pace that everything they do is like this now.

Honestly the only videos from the last year where I remember things not being totally jank were videos with Emily, but she's barely been in anything since coming out a few months ago.

Tbh that's how almost all of their projects seem to be now. Woefully unprepared, full of jank.

The last time something like this happened it was made clear GN was going to cover LMG as the corporation it is, not as an individual where you might hash things out privately first.

It's been clear for quite a while that they've focused only on growth/expansion with more channels, the lab, so many new employees, etc and at the same time you can see the sloppiness getting worse with lack of preparation, lack of quality control to meet deadlines, etc.

The Billet Labs thing is absolutely inexcusable. Shitting on the product despite LMG being the one responsible for not even having the correct GPU for it, giving it a bad review, then doubling down when called out over a couple hundred bucks of time? The auctioned off prototype is so much worse as well. Not sure of the Canadian terms but in the US it'd potentially be theft by conversion. Literally sold someone else's property. Even if you give them the benefit of the doubt and accept it as an accident, it seems like more evidence of whoever is running their logistics department being incompetent IMO.

"...and running across the street to an identical building that is infested with rats and cockroaches!"

Still better than Nazis.

Good on the developers/maintainers. Why develop a moderation tool without payment for a platform that considers you a leech?

[-] EvilColeslaw@beehaw.org 20 points 1 year ago

Yep I followed multiple subs with overlapping content, especially with technology, PC hardware, etc etc

Nah I think it's clear he wanted it to leak. He's just an egomaniac who thinks he's actually a good leader. That section of the memo was for investor confidence. (It'll pass, no revenue effect so far, etc.) The other part about warning employees not to wear Reddit gear in public for fear of violence was meant for the press and for the uninformed, to try to garner sympathy and paint the protestors as bad actors.

Cool. I was going to hold out hope that something might change. But I've just deleted my account of 12+ years.
