Hey, uh, not to alarm you but there may be a YouTube link in the YouTube link you just shared

[-] invalidusernamelol@hexbear.net 14 points 3 days ago

I've banned the bot for a day, if this happens again just flag it and I'll do it again lol.

It feels like ads these days are crossing a lot of boundaries that they didn't just a few years ago. It's manufacturing consent but more aggressive. Normalizing the violence.

Yeah the last few frames where dozens of missiles head towards what is implied is China is pretty brazen

[-] The_Jewish_Cuban@hexbear.net 13 points 3 days ago

Someone's gotta take this bot down 😂

[-] ProletarianDictator@hexbear.net 10 points 3 days ago

let's keep it going until it posts 10k comments. Immortalize hexbot alongside that DPRK soldier pic

It's got a 24 hour ban until it's fixed

That company is owned by Palmer Luckey, the guy who made the oculus rift and ran nimble America in 2016. Every time you think you’ve heard the last of some awful grifter they show up again somewhere worse.

The LA times ran this profile of him not long ago: https://www.latimes.com/la-influential/story/2024-06-30/palmer-luckey-anduril

Anduril means "flame of the west" btw it's not exactly subtle

Their business model differs from most defense giants because they develop the "product" (mass murder machine) first before selling it to the government, all the others do it on contract according to requirements. So it makes sense they would do ads like this I guess.

I had one of their recruiters reach out to me on linkedin recently and was like heeeeellllllll no.

Tech bros and their consequences

Breadtube if it didn't suck.

Post videos you genuinely enjoy and want to share, duh. Celebrate the diversity of interests shared by chapochatters by posting a deep dive into Venetian kelp farming, I dunno. Also media criticism, bite-sized versions of left-wing theory, all the stuff you expected. But I am curious about that kelp farming thing now that you mentioned it.

Low effort / spam videos might be removed, especially weeb content.

There is a cytube that you can paste videos into and watch with whoever happens to be around. It's open submission unless there's something important to commandeer it with at the time.

A weekly watch party happens every Saturday (Sunday down under), with video nominations Saturday-Monday, voting Monday-Thursday. See the pin for whatever stage it's currently in.
