They were sold to private equity and are slowly transitioning it away from Derek. That way it can be a brand not directly tied to him and his face

The channel is owned by private equity


That’s pretty damning. If you feel comfortable, I’d be interested to hear what the micro managing looks like in practice
Underunderstood - Favorite one but on hiatus because they all had kids; side project of some journalists trying to help people
Hyperfixed - New problem solving one from Alex Goldman of Reply All
The Turning - Each season explores an organization that people don’t commonly call a cult (but probably should)
Shell Game - Funny and frightening exploration with LLMs


I’ve only watched one video from this channel but seems to fit the description


when there’s never been any other successful systems.
I don’t know what you define as successful, but I can assure you there were previous systems and alternatives that currently exist. It’s a broad term


Surprised no one has said MyHouse.wad yet
Same. Physical media will degrade and fail. If you want reliable access to the VHS collection then you need to digitize and create backups. About 10% of my collection wasn’t able to be digitized due to degradation


I recommend not supporting that company. The old Ticket to Ride app was delisted and servers shuttered. It probably had ~$100 worth of IAP for different maps which couldn’t be transferred to the new app


Yes, but not in a way you might think.
When it comes to the death penalty, I’ve always been on the “against” side of the fence. But for very heinous crimes, I believed I understood why families of victims would want to pursue that.
On an online forum, I encountered such a family member. They shared the crime in great detail, and how they felt about the assailant. The way they discussed it was very ugly, selfish, and overly punitive. It was clear they no longer viewed the person as a human being. They weren’t able to process the trauma. This changed my belief that there are rational arguments for the death penalty from family members.


If you’re down for a recipe…
Should taste equal parts spicy and sweet. If too spicy, dilute with more cocoa powder or blueberries.
Highly recommend SomaFM


Drop-in cloud/API replacement for YouTube front-ends. It would keep track of watch history and return recommended videos from an algorithm that’s user configurable


Same thing for the sequels. Here’s an article about it. Maybe it’s the passage of time, but I’d say 2 is much more visually stunning than 1


A warranty is only as good as the company offering it. I’d opt for a shorter warranty with good customer service


Is anyone aware of a third-party service for tracking YouTube watch history across devices? That’s the missing piece keeping me from switching


My Pebble watch


I’d recommend First Cow
The LTT allegations were investigated by a third party who was unable to substantiate the claims and were described as “largely unfounded, misleading, and unfair”
