There's probably drama here

Thanks for asking! The original Jake did great at delivering his famous line, “uh…khakis.” However, this expanded role is very demanding and is best filled by a professional actor. ~LM

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]

[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.

This is why in the Kingdom of Knothole we only eat the finest real foods like Uncle Chuck's chili dogs rather then this technological abomination. Source Speed Freedom Fighters may you win in your quest to free these poor souls

Is Dark Brandon rounding up MAGA chuds to have them mass executed in the Capitol Arena? Possibly.

Is Trump's inaugeration committee going to turn Judas on him and install a favored Republican President in a very rare double steal?

Further Patriots plan on executing Operation Lalala I can't hear you

Mayor Adams kicked off the two-day summit with a rousing speech in which he likened himself to a hero in the war against rats.

"I don't think there's been a mayor in history that says how much he hates rats," he said. "I dislike rats."

Exterminators weren't invited to the event, and neither were the city's rats. Kathleen Corradi, whom Adams appointed as the city's first "rat czar" last year, described the event as a space where rodent experts could share their philosophical treatises.

We are already losing the WAR ON RATS

Matt Frye, of New York State Integrated Pest Management, entered the rat symposium espousing a more diplomatic approach for dealing with Adams' public enemy No. 1.

"The 'war on rats' mentality may not be the best approach for our urban areas," he said.

Dr. Chelsea Himsworth, founder of the Vancouver Rat Project, compared the never-ending fight to the WAR ON DRUGS — and said health officials should focus on harm reduction instead of eliminating the vermin altogether.

"It can't be solved," Himsworth solemnly declared. "It can only be managed."

"I've handled 700 rats myself," said Byers, who fondly recalled driving around Vancouver in a "rat van," capturing rats, collecting their feces and urine, and even anesthetizing the rodents to pick fleas off their skin.

"They're symbols about a lack of resources in your community," she added. "Rats live in tight social groups, When you remove some, you change how they interact with each other. You're changing how you fight for their social hierarchy. And they do urinate on each other that whole time."

"They're just like us," Corradi, Rat Czar of NYC tells us as she bounds into a planter, pushes aside long stalks of milkweed, and points out the entrance to a burrow. "They want to live in a nice place, have food nearby, and not get into too much trouble if they can."

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...
