Like Verbatim’s 100 year Azzo DVD media that failed in 10 years?

Or 1000 year CD’s that failed in 3 because a manufacturing defect that let moisture into the metal layer?

A EU ruling does absolutely nothing to remove Putin from power.

The EU has already ruled that Putin’s actions were illegal in 2022. Russia needs to be defeated.

They trade with him opportunistically,

That’s all trade. Trade supports countries economically.

They will throw him under the bus the second there is an incentive, and will probably benefit from it

That’s capitalism.

How about get Russia out of Ukraine before declaring victory with plans to arrest Putin?

Milosevic didn’t have nuclear weapons and the economic support of India and China. Expecting Putin to face consequences is like thinking Trump will face consequences.

It’s nice to dream. But seriously. Serbia is not a superpower. The only thing that can stop Putin is Russians. Just like the only thing that can stop Trump is Americans.

Not going to happen. Might makes right in this world.

But that leaves the utilities with alle the risk,

Not if you make the data center pay for it.

If a consumer wants a utility upgrade, the consumer pays all costs upfront. I know this because my neighbor works for the power company and was trying to get gas lines run to our neighborhood. The cost the power company would charge us was hundreds of thousands which even divided by the number of homes meant it would never pay off vs outlr existing cost for propane delivery.

The resources are finite whether the taxpayers pay for the construction or the corporation that needs the electric upgrade pays.

He did a comparison of products ending with a recommendation. That’s a review.

I don’t know why you can’t accept that.

You don’t watch all of his videos which is why you have the wrong idea. It’s the 2024 video where he reviewed Tru Tone.

If products are compared in detail and a suggestion to buy is given, it’s a review.

It doesn’t matter what you think the channel is supposed to be. What matters is the content.

At this point you are nitpicking and being pedantic to attempt to “win” an agurment not being had.

You wrote 3 paragraphs to avoid admitting that despite my writing about his detergent video, you responded with his dishwasher video because you haven’t watched all his content!

Comparing samples with an independent lab isn’t a review? Come on. As I already said just because most of his content is “talking head”, doesn’t mean he can’t recommend products. Which he clearly has done.

What kind of scavenged screen? Laptops? Because non-laptop small lcds are an undocumented mess. You’d do better to buy screens that work with esp32s.

It isn’t a scam. It is an asset like buying land in the middle of nowhere. It will in general match inflation but underperform most other investments. In the very long term I would expect that with global population stabilizing and declining, the value of gold will also stabilize and decline.

Nixon was a crook but also a patriot. He worked for America using illegal methods that never personally benefited himself. Nixon would have had Trump killed for selling out America for personal profit.

His dish washing video went to great lenghts to explain how something works

That’s a different video. He recently did another video of detergent and why his brand of detergent that he is selling for charity is better than pods.

His dish washing detergent video went to great lengths to create experimental comparisons to show his brand of detergent is better than pods. He has done experiments with other products too like dehumidifiers.

He is promoting a product. That product possibly has what many perceive as a severe defect (flicker). He could say it doesn’t personally bother him but still compare it to other lights in the same way he compared colors in detail. Is the flicker large or small?

I love his channel and watch every video. But that doesn’t mean I have to ignore when he misses a detail.

Careful reviewers cover all factors independent of their personal bias.

Teflon will eventually flake off even if babied. The problem is thermal stress between the aluminum and Teflon. Repeated heating and cooling will eventually cause it to fail.

I found the “we don’t pick apples” absurd.

It’s either pick apples or don’t pick up falling food either. Here’s why:

Fruit trees and other mass farmed plants have been selectively bred over thousands of years to bear fruit or seeds that are far larger than their wild variants. Picking fruit early from a commercial apple tree actually keeps the tree grow healthier because it isn’t putting as much of its resources into growing the fruit. In many cases with plants you break the flowers off before they go to seed so that the plant doesn’t waste its energy trying to grow seeds so that it can be larger and healthier next year.

So not picking fruit hurts the trees. Given the global unified mind, wheat production could be easily modified to cut slightly higher so that the grain is removed leaving the rest of the plant intact. Again this helps the plant because natural grasses don’t produce such large heads.

Alternatively, they shouldn’t take fallen apples because it’s interfering with the natural life cycle of the Apple tree. There’s a small chance an Apple tree will grow and eating that fallen Apple is taking food from wildlife that would eat it.

I don’t think the writers thought it out because they were looking for a reason to have the hive starve and be on a short timeline but not immediate death.

I meant ignore in the context that he said it doesn’t personally bother him.
