1/ The Russian media has reportedly been ordered by the Kremlin not to cover Donald Trump positively because his agenda is seen by ordinary Russians as better aligned with their own interests and values than that of Vladimir Putin.

2/ The VChK-OGPU Telegram channel reports what a source has told it about a new directive suppressing Russian media coverage of Trump:

3/ "If the policy of the previous US administration easily created an image of an enemy for the average Russian citizen in terms of values, then now Trump, as president, meets the demands of Russian citizens better than Putin himself:

4/ "– a family man with an open large family, information about which is not classified by special services (although the security issues of the Trump family are no less acute than those of his Russian colleague);

– became a billionaire before he even came to power;

5/ "– firmly defends the interests of US citizens in matters of migrant crime and relations with their countries of origin (the recent case of Colombia with Trump's strong rhetoric and Russia's unconvincing cases with Azerbaijan and Tajikistan);

6/ "– promotes tax cuts for its own citizens and businesses while imposing tariffs and duties on foreign countries.

7/ "Whereas Russia is increasing taxes (on profits, VAT, personal income tax, scrappage fees, tariffs of state monopolies in housing and communal services) for its own citizens and businesses, and constant concessions, forgiveness of debts,…

8/ …reduction of supply prices of resources for foreign countries.

The domestic policy of the United States now absolutely coincides with the values that the Kremlin previously made "unique" for Russians.

9/ "A strict command has been given to all media outlets to stop any material on the positive aspects of Trump's domestic policy, and to reduce all news items from the US only to the growth of domestic national and class tensions.

10/ "It is obvious to the Kremlin that Moscow will no longer be able to compete in the field of traditional values with Washington; the mainstream in the Russian media must urgently be changed.

11/ "As one participant in a meeting of a government working group joked: we can lift the ban on LGBT and start supporting transgender politics by introducing it into Russian culture…

12/ … in order to maintain the agenda of global confrontation and an "alternative path" against the Americans.

13/ "Against this background, it is increasingly difficult to explain to Russians why their 'friends' are Turkey, Iran, North Korea and China, which have completely different and in many ways unacceptable cultural values for Russians…

14/ …(and the latter country is also taking advantage of the situation by sucking all the profit margins from Russia into its economy)

I'm guessing it's going to be a nothing burger like this whole situation , but I will come back to this comment after I watch itOkay im 20mins in and first of all way Louis is being way to emotional.So far all he has said about Linus is pretty valid, but for some reason he's treating Steve like some small 16 year old that just started his tech channel so we shouldn't be so harsh.

Angriest Comments

Angriness: 😡😡😡😡😡

I've watched both the WAN segment clip and parts of the show itself, I at this time no longer remember its original content. So I went to rewatch it quickly + threw it into a transcript generator.Not at any point did Linus apologise or address his own fricking statement. He literally began with a script of the clip Steve played on his channel, yet didn't think to address its "context" and "intention". It was a 22 minute holier-than-thou dress down at Steve.Though it should be pointed out Steve's own management of the situation hasn't been terribly great, adding much ammunition to the people defending Linus, and the root cause of the drama: Linus SHOULD have addressed the Honey thing publicly when they found out. (11)

What statement does linus need to apologise for? Yeah this is the point. Steve made snide comments about linus OUT OF FRICKING CONTEXT in the honey video. But here, let me ELI5 it for you. Here's the full timeline of events regarding LTT and honey with full context.1) Linus releases a video about adblock being similar to privacy and how it hurts creators to use it since it blocks their ad revenue. This part is crucial to the story because the community was PISSED at this.2) 2 months later LTT drop Honey as a sponsor and make a post about it on their forum. Keep in mind LTT were not the only ones doing this amd there were already articles outlining what honey was doing at the time. It was not a secret LTT discovered.3) steve drops his 2023 expose about linus with no right to reply being followed which resulted in numerous mistakes but he did have fair criticisms of LTT and linus responded by taking action to fix those mistakes. He has NEVER said the criticisms were wrong btw.4) Megala... (8)

Angriness: 😡😡😡😡😡

sorry mate, no leftists say "nothingburger" we have brains and culture (-4)

Yeah I don't usually comment on things but this was just such a... Profoundly stupid statement. It's not about left or right. This is exactly the thing that's the problem with the world today, everything has to be political. You can't just have different opinions and experiences than other people. Heck, 90% of the time I've heard nothingburger was in the context of someone saying the trump felony charges were nothing burgers. That doesn't make me associate it with the right. This is a childish argument to begin with. Just move on (3)

Angriness: 😡😡😡😡😡

I mean, all I did was see people who said they weren't gonna watch it and figured maybe a summary would help people form an opinion that wasn't completely based on assuming what the video said. You can spin that however you want.If you really don't care about this situation, why are you here again? Like you could've just not come into the thread. (3)

Because we live in a hellscape of algorithm driven content and despite not being subbed to either LTT or GN subreddits this ridiculous clout sharking content from GN has infested reddit 'recommended posts' for weeks now.I also mentioned I love seeing people effort post to justify a preference as a 'fact' as well to be fair.There's something fundamentally frustrating seeing, otherwise tech literate communities, rewrite history to pretend Honey wasn't widely known to be a scam years ago. Heck, just rewatching Dan Olsen's video "The Nostalgia Critic and The Wall" from 2021 there's a casual reference to 'data harvesting scam, Honey' from four years ago, but I'm supposed to believe it was only LTT who had this secret information that were solely responsible for blowing the lid off Paypal Honey? Even I, figured it out myself when 'Honey gold' started popping up at carts when I had the extension installed.While criticism of LTT that has been paired with this Honey drama is often valid, the...

At his annual Super Bowl news conference Monday, NFL commissioner Roger Goodell strongly supported the league's policies designed to promote diversity at the club-employment level and said they would continue.

But during Super Bowl LIX, and with President Donald Trump apparently planning to attend on Sunday, the NFL might be making another kind of statement on the Caesars Superdome field itself. According to two league sources, who spoke on condition of anonymity because of the sensitivity of the discussions, league officials recently changed one of the slogans expected to be stenciled in the back of an end zone from "End Racism" to "Choose Love."

The game between the Kansas City Chiefs and the Philadelphia Eagles will mark the first time since February 2021 that "End Racism" is not included as a message in the back of a Super Bowl end zone.

The switch, conveyed internally to high-level employees earlier this week, could be perceived as a nod to the current political climate. Following the lead of Trump, who was inaugurated last month, many corporations and institutions are abandoning their diversity, equity and inclusion programs. Goodell did not follow suit when asked about the league's policies on Monday, saying he was "proud" of the league's diversity efforts.

"We got into diversity efforts because we felt it was the right thing for the National Football League," Goodell said. "And we're going to continue those efforts, because we've not only convinced ourselves we've proven it to ourselves — it does make the NFL better."

Hello my fellow Mobians it is I Elias Acorn, King of the house of Acorn with fresh intel from Robtoniks Robotropolis. The dastardly Robotonik forces his overlander subjects to eat nothing but liquid soy feed in order to save money for his cruel schemes, but it seems his Soylent factories are starting to run out. One over lander notices:

Shortages, discounts at supermarkets, no refunds, service delays. Is this it?

To which this astute Overlander noticed:

When I posted my concerns about their financial health 3 months ago, soylent_team replied saying:

We promise we aren't going anywhere. There have been some bumps this year, but hang on with us, we promise we are here to stay! [1]

In August, their CEO said:

We have integrated and created efficiencies through our shared service platform for our brands over the course of 2023 and 2024 allowing the Company to now experience tremendous retail expansion, topline growth and higher margins. [...] If you look at any of our portfolio companies we are winning because we have extremely unique products and brands with defensive moats and scaling distribution [2]

However, their accountants sounded less upbeat when they wrote in a recent filing:

substantial doubt exists related to the Company's ability to meet its obligations as they become due within one year [3]

[1] https://old.reddit.com/r/soylent/comments/1fq0sju/comment/lp3iwpu/?context=8

[2] https://investors.starcobrands.com/press-releases/detail/93/starco-brands-announces-insider-stock-buy-back-plan-and

[3] See "NOTE 2 – GOING CONCERN" here.

This overlander wonders how Doctor Robtonik's mean bean soylent machine could have ever run into problems:

It must take a special kind of incompetence to screw up such a fabulous company. I mean, the Soylent founders built a great tasting, nutritional product, gained a loyal and enthusiastic following, expanded the product line, went international, and were a market leader. They had every advantage! Now look at them - a struggling unit of a penny stock company that can't meet its commitments. What a bloody shame.

Im sure eating nothing but soy feed and motor oil is nutritious

This sad overlander is so dependent on the soy feed he is now unable to eat normal food:

I would die if soylent went out of business

While Robtonik serves other forms of gruel to his subjects it seems they are somehow even worse then the dreeded soylent

They really need new ownership under someone that cares about the brand and the company's original vision. The Starco buyout was the beginning of the end. At the end of the day, Soylent's original powder is the only product I have been able to drink daily for years and not have any issues. If anything it is consistent. I tried Huel as an alternative due to the shortage and I HATED it. It tastes like plain oatmeal with 20 packets of Splenda and is so thick you need a spoon to consume it (not to mention it gives me a painful stomach ache). So is Soylent going under? I honestly don't know, but I do hope that someone competent can right the clearly sinking ship that is the Soylent brand.
