  • Streaming video is expensive. LTT did it with Floatplane, even going so far as to develop their own backend. Watcher and some other YouTubers did it with Vimeo as their backend, but Vimeo still takes a large cut.

    At the end of the day, people are doing this, but YouTube still offers a compelling value compared to other platforms. It’s hard to beat their scale, sophistication, and the discoverability of their platform.

  • To add to this, carry-ons dramatically slow the boarding process, which adds to the overall cost of the flight. Charging for carry-ons makes it easier for flights to be consistently on-time, which is why airlines prefer to have fewer of them

    Turning an airplane around is not a quick process, and anything that can be done to speed that it up saves the airline time and money.

  • Ideally you drain window units every couple of weeks, when you clean the filters. Once a year a deeper cleaning is a good idea. One where you take the cover off, clean all the built up gunk out, and then let it dry. You can use a cleaning spray specific for air conditioners, or even just water for a significant improvement.

    I typically use the cheapest “no rinse” cleaning spray for air conditioners that Home Depot sells, a toothbrush, and lots of water before/after. It really extends the life of the unit, preventing the build up of mold and improving the units efficiency.

  • with all these allegations it made sense to me to not give my viewership until everything is cleared, and it seems we are still far from it?

    I mean, it’s hard to proof a negative.

    You ought to follow your conscience, but I haven’t found her to be a reliable narrator personally. The results of the investigation were enough for me, at least without further evidence to the contrary.

  • In summary, as confirmed by the investigation, the allegations made against the team were largely unfounded, misleading, and unfair.

    Or more specifically the investigation found that:

    Claims of bullying and harassment were not substantiated.

    Allegations that sexual harassment were ignored or not addressed were false.

    Any concerns that were raised were investigated. Furthermore, from reviewing our history, the investigator is confident that if any other concerns had been raised, we would have investigated them.

    There was no evidence of “abuse of power” or retaliation. The individual involved may not have agreed with our decisions or performance feedback, but our actions were for legitimate work-related purposes, and our business reasons were valid.

    Allegations of process errors and miscommunication while onboarding this individual were partially substantiated, but the investigator found ample documentary evidence of LMG working to rectify the errors and the individual being treated generously and respectfully. When they had questions, they were responded to and addressed.

  • Instead of saying anything about this when they discovered it, lmg just quietly dropped them from sponsorship a change from their usual trend of calling out the company (theyve done it before with other sponsors).

    If by other sponsors you mean Eufy, which happened well after They dropped Honey, then yes that was handled differently. Their logic was that Eufy’s (still-ongoing) security issues directly affected consumers, whereas all LMG knew about was Honey hijacking affiliate revenue trackers.

    Source on what LMG as a company knew:  

    We ended the partnership with Honey due to the way their service interacted with affiliate links. Essentially, if someone clicked on a affiliate link (For example, one of ours below in the video description on YouTube), and then if they "use honey" and search for a deal, Honey will override that tracking links even if they don’t find you a deal.

  • Not what he said.

    His words about the Gail Slater nomination specifically were.

    Great pick by @realDonaldTrump. 10 years ago, Republicans were the party of big business and Dems stood for the little guys, but today the tables have completely turned. People forget that the current antitrust actions against Big Tech were started under the first Trump admin.

    I disagree with Yen here, but characterizing that statement as “republicans are the right choice for their policies and democrats are not,” seems like a real stretch.
