  • Just want to take a moment to point out that two of the three you seem to like because they remind you of the past.

    I fully support your take on trying to find new stuff, I personally have found that many good songs that I love take a few listens for me to actually like them, some do not catch on tho.

    Given that, may I suggest you add new songs you want to try in your rotation? When they come up just take some effort to listen through and take them in, think of what you like and what you don’t, see if it changes.

    Don’t torture yourself tho







  • You mean shitty remakes made to capitalize on the parents that want to share their nostalgia with their kids, there are plenty of excellent shows for kids nowadays and frankly I’m jealous, there’s plenty of variety of shows that don’t treat you like you’re dumb (there’s still pepa pig style of crap tho).

    It’s like the marvel garbage, they make it for people who are addicted to their stuff and so will buy it regardless of quality and even buy more into it when they can complain about a brown character or something.

    Edit: I wanted to add: shitty reboots don’t magically make the originals disappear, yet people treat it like that. Find new stuff, don’t be old man yelling at cloud.










  • I’m glad I’m seeing responses like this, while I’m not a ride or die ltt fan, I really dislike unfair criticism getting mixed in with reasonable criticism, it muddies the waters.

    What I hope will happen is:

    • They find the problems internally that lead to Madison’s experience (amongst others we may not know about).
    • address them
    • contact the corresponding authorities if necessary
    • they get more serious about doing things right
    • they somehow make it clearer that their YouTube channels are more entertainment oriented than technical, that not all of their videos featuring tech are reviews and that they attempt to bridge the gap between the two leaning on the entertainment side (I’ve seen way too many people talking about journalistic integrity and reviews and stuff like that, it’s evident many see any of their non reviews as reviews)
    • make private (and public if the affected are okay with it, remember not everyone wants that and a victim’s retribution is not yours to receive)
    • they slow down on the videos, holy fucking shit, I get they want an element of chaos and casual disorder but they should always be in control at least after filming.

    I am 50/50 on whether I think they will do what’s right as a priority, maybe even less given the severity of what Madison described, though hopefully the situation was a bit less horrible than it seems from her retelling of the events and more fixable than just firing a bunch of tech bros that are unable to understand the line between sexual harassment and playful banter.


  • I think that’s the point of a third party investigator, collect information to deliver in a usable way that they can act upon.

    Whether they’ll procede correctly to that is to be seen, I just don’t like how people are bloodthirsty more than they are wanting justice and corrections, that will certainly color their reaction to whatever move they end up making.

    Before anyone jumps at my throat, if they fall, I’m okay with it, though losing the promise of the lab is disappointing.
