Good Lord! Thank you for the warning! On lowest audible phone volume it blew me away lol

What is that and why does it exist??

So Google shuts you out of their rankings and results to sell this. Fuck you.

Come on people don’t spoil sport this, it was funny!

Remember when Google+ was the future?

People love to discuss these fantasy realms where ad-free decentralized content forms some kind of Utopia that we all enjoy.

I’m a former content creator with millions and millions of hours of (e watched hours of) video. I have answered hundreds of comments from people who would like to suggest that my mic is better, or I use a better video camera, better lighting…

When I say hey I’d love to, can you donate a dollar so I can buy them… Crickets.

I can honestly say I never made a fucking sent on YouTube and it’s the users that are to blame. They view it as this free thing that they should be entitled. Contribute nothing willingly.

There is a huge difference between the ethical stance people portray in their online comments, and people’s in real life behavior.

I love hearing these kinds of retellings from industry insiders, I was deep in Tech and high up in the games industry, and I know the kinds of shenanigans that happen at the CEO and board level!

But in my view the mobile game was over already in *2001-2003. That’s when Microsoft had everything wrapped up in their hot little hands, but decided that mobile computing was not the future, and that embedded Windows CE on every device is the way to go.

Everything that happened after 2003 to 2005 basically sealed everything in stone. I think he’s vastly over playing whatever revolution was in his mind.

Most jokes need to be recognizable as funny?

Like if you say the word cucked, ever, I’m going to assume you’re serious and an imbecile and I would be right to do that, no?!

Yes it’s very circular.

You know it had nothing to do with the $700, it had to do with not opening precedent to a flood of future lawsuits.

I probably would not have replied the way I initially did, but you framed it a $700, and it has nothing to do with it.

It comes from that massive disconnect that people are largely unaware of, which is the assumption that people purchase e:invest in businesses to help run them more efficiently and become profitable.

That really has very little to do with it! It’s a giant shell game. I believe the initial investors came in to disrupt our company, to prime it for fire-sale later. To make us so incredibly uncompetitive that we effectively had to shut the doors. It worked!

A young person died in my youth crisis shelter because instead of getting 911, I was first redirected to a semi-literate moron working in a VOIP “call center”. Her Southern Alabama drawl was so severe I could not even recognize she was speaking English at first. This “call center” was also “experiencing higher than normal call volumes”.

Last week I was driving by a wooden apartment complex and I noticed that somebody’s unattended barbecue had gone poof and the balcony was burning. I called 911 and it took 4 minutes to get directed to the fire department.

Ever sat in a boardroom? I have.

Decisions are not made based on proper market/business analysis, they are made knee-jerk by overprivileged idiots.

An example of this was when one of the companies I worked where I was in charge of all the online training.

Then the big fat morons who invested came into the boardroom, instructed us to change all of our training to Flash clips… Because he also had a financial interest in Macromedia.

We ended up losing massive business partners and investment firms (e: we made extremely industrial strength financial planning software). Because a huge part of it was being able to provide consistent, usable training material. The company was later purchased for a song and dance. Then shut down.

It wasn’t the $700 dude you have to know that.

Tell me you know nothing about contract law without telling me you know nothing about contract law.

Well it is in another dimension. We analyze spatial dimensions in a 3D framework, but it’s very obvious there are additive forces that we don’t understand and are forever inaccessible to us, outside of inferring properties based on outcomes we observe.

We don’t live in a 3+1 dimensional universe, at minimum we live in a 4+1 universe.

I’m referring to Avatar!

I cannot believe they blew that kind of money and produced that piece of turd lol

So providing NO assistance to customers turned out to be a bad idea?

THE MOST UNPREDICTABLE OUTCOME IN THE HISTORY OF CUSTOMER SERVICE!

I’m not trying to have a big hate on for Dyson but

They patented a new DC switching motor

It had the potential to revolutionize so many industries

Instead of licensing the tech out … They decided to make vacuums and hand dryers

The company is run by imbeciles

As a person that does electronic repair, let me just tell you what pieces of shit dysons are from a design standpoint.

They are the most over engineered, Fancy pants pieces of shit that are designed to sell, not to use.

Let me give you an example… One of the most popular posts on the Dyson YouTube page, is how to get the hose out of the machine. Yes that’s right, they needed a fucking video tutorial for one of the most common complaints, people can’t even use the goddamn things!

And then when you want to repair them, you are looking at 2 hours of meticulously dismanting a giant block of unnecessarily complicated Lego to access one tiny piece.

Dysons are absolute pieces of shit from every measurable perspective. With the exception of one thing: the motors do provide good suction, but they’re nothing special, no more suction than any standard motor. They overhyped the electronic switching of the DC motor to the point that people actually believed it! It’s a fucking standard DC motor!!! Essentialy. A vacuum is not the correct application for this kind of technology.

Compare a Dyson’s engineering with a simple device like a Bissell or a shark, which you can completely dismantle and reassemble in like 10 minutes.

You can’t even replace a tiny hose piece on a Dyson without 2 hours, and many specialized tools.

Edit: to underscore what gigantic pieces of shit they are, I actually, through my electronics repair, got a $700 Dyson for free… Original owner effectively discarded it because it was plugged with a sock in the tube. Anyways, after I fixed it, I tried to use it in my apartment. I sold it. Fucking piece of unusable shite. As a person that does a ton of electronics repair and appliance repair and refurbishing, you start to develop a sense in your mind about what’s going through the designer’s head. And when I work on dysons, all I think about is how some jackass who knows AutoCAD, was given free rein to do what he wants, and you ended up with these spaceship looking lumps of garbage that nobody can use.

Edit 2: oh my God I can’t believe I forgot about the fish hook connectors! On the power head of every upright Dyson that I’ve recently serviced… They are designed with hooks at the back that fucking catch on everything! A perfect example what I’m saying, some jack off who just learned AutoCAD, thinking he’s a designer. Nobody puts backward-facing hook “styling” on a vacuum power head - except Dyson! They absolutely suck and I can go on and on but I’m going to stop now.

Edit 3: I can’t stop. I forgot that my sister has run a local cleaning company for 20 years. She has rich-ass customers and she’s been given Dysons by people with way too much money, which she immediately sold without opening the box. And she is absolutely NOT the only one… I can say this with surety as I often sell/fix for small cleaning companies. Professional cleaners -refuse- to use Dyson vacuums.

“I’ll be completely honest, quite often we work in an obsessive nature," says Jake. "We want this product. We want to make this thing. Sometimes before actually evaluating what the market response might be. And the market didn’t exist. So you’ve got to take those risks.”

So they did 0 market study, decided to build a gas station on the peak of a mountain and now marvel how nobody came.

Moron.
