  • I watched this guy during Brexit to keep up with the whole thing. He always seemed truthful and reported things without obvious bias. But I stopped watching once the Brexit hype started dying down and the channel started to go into more broad reporting topics.

    I never felt they were trying to deceive or misinform, but I also wasn’t very knowledgeable about the topics they were reporting.

    I think your opinion is fair and a healthy way to look at it. They’re not outright liars or anything, but they don’t have a lot of credibility behind them either.



  • Exactly this. It’s the hype cycle all over again. Everyone gets excited about the new thing, the new thing is easy to implement but hard to utilize effectively, everyone starts shoehorning the new thing into their thing, they throw shit-tons of money at it and shit-tons more to market it as the greatest thing ever, and then everyone starts to see the truth. The new thing is okay and can be useful but it has been way overblown, and it all starts to crumble down to where it should be and then we build it up slowly from there.




  • I got the Zojirushi Zutto coffee maker after looking up recommendations.

    It works well, is easy to clean, and brews enough coffee for my wife and I to have a cup each (my cup is about 14 oz and she probably drinks about 10 oz). It brews the coffee in about 7-8 minutes and it fits the #2 cone filters.

    I’ve been using it for over half a year now and I have no complaints. I’m not a coffee conneisuer, but I feel like this machine brews really good coffee. I also bought a super cheap 12 cup coffee maker for when we have guests, and I feel like the coffee brewed in that machine is inferior.
