Pro Jared was cancelled and was innocent.
I don’t remember all the details of the Pro Jared situation, but as I recall he sent unsolicited dick pics to a (minor?) fan, along with a bunch of other unsavory shit. I also remember there being a good amount of evidence to back up those claims, including recordings and the aforementioned dick pic.
I’m really curious what could have come out that was compelling enough to completely exonerate him.
Technology connections is literally the best YouTube channel ever.
Here’s a small Brazilian tech channel that I really like

Second this
Compared to sifting though God knows how many hours of LMG content to find this information yourself, it sure is. I was aware of perhaps two of the data accuracy issues Steve presents, prior to the GN video. And I had no idea about the Billet Labs thing, or that an LTX charity auction even happened.
That’s what good reporting does. It takes complex issues with disparate data points, then makes connections and filters out the noise to make it digestible to a wide audience. It may be a long video, but having watched the whole thing, I’d say at least 90% of it is necessary to make the points being conveyed.
I some cases sure, but a lot of the time it’s simple stuff like “Save changes before quitting?” or “You need to restart to apply updates. Restart now?” and they still can’t figure it out.
I work in IT. Average people tend to fall into one of two categories when presented with big scary warning messages.
Category 1: They freak out and immediately ask for help, and tend to be very skeptical of anything you tell them to do until the message goes away.
Category 2: They ignore the message and YOLO it like Linus did, then call for help hours or days later when something inevitably breaks.
It’s rare for either group of people to read an comprehend the message in it’s entirety.
I agree that a large chunk of LMG content is vapid and surface level, and I was put off by them years ago because of it. Ironically though, I’ve found much of their newer output more appealing, not because of it’s informational value, but because where else am I gonna see someone build a hacked together water loop with a car radiator?
Xenoblade Chronicles took years to come to North America. I remember seeing multiple petitions trying to get it released over here.
Actually no. This year was the last spring forward, at least for the US. We’re not falling back to standard time this year and never will again.
No idea, it’s random every time.
Either server logs, or the hackers sending them part of the data they have to prove they’re ligit. I assume the latter would have happened if Reddit had shown any interest in negotiating.
I took that to mean no one at Reddit bothered to check what was stolen.
I’m using a 12 year old Xeon based Dell workstation as a file server and PiHole. It’s quiet, reliable, and has a RAID controller built into the motherboard. Before I got my current server I was using a couple Raspberry Pis, which was more work to maintain and less reliable.
The only reason I’m using this machine at all though is because I got it for free. I definitely recommend taking the path of least resistance in terms of cost and availability if you’re not going to be putting super heavy loads on your server.
I read the ‘as’ in the title as ‘and’ at first. I sat there for a minute trying to figure out WTF rock platform is and why spez would be protesting it.
It’s even better if you install the Kbin enhancement userscript in your browser.
Not that Picross isn’t a game, but there are speedruns of Microsoft Excel. I’m not convinced something having a speedrun proves it’s status as a game.
I think pretentious may be an understatement for this guy
or know the screwdriver twist technique.
What happened with Channel Awesome? I know some shit went down, but I hadn’t followed them in years when I first heard about it, so I never really got all the details.
