>>2265Jaiden Animations has a crew somewhere around the low-double high-single digits range last I checked. It's not 1:1 the same, because she uploads way less frequently, but with the style of content she does taking longer (animation, game reviews and
vtubing) I feel like it evens out.
No.2269
>>2267Mmmm, I'm not so sure about that. Look at the Linus Media Group's site and all of their stuff:
https://linusmediagroup.com/Linus's main channel does daily uploads, Techquickie uploads every 3-4 days, ShortCircuit 1-2 days, TechLinked 2-3 days, Mac Address every two weeks, Channel Super Fun is apparently monthly, and LMG Clips put out seven videos in the last 24 hours. I went and looked at their uploads over the last seven days and they've put out roughly
SIX hours of video in just one week. Those are videos that get written, recorded (with fancy cameras, lighting, etc), edited, and which use tons of props and hardware that they need to first obtain, move around, and set up properly. On top of that, they put out another episode of their WAN Show podcast which is over five hours long.
They also manage their own merch, which has way more stuff than Jaiden's store:
https://www.lttstore.com/collections/allAnd they have some sorta streaming thingy site:
https://www.floatplane.com/discoverEven holds an expo wtf???
https://www.ltxexpo.com/In comparison, this week Jaiden streamed 14 hours of raw, unedited gameplay, and she puts out 15-20 minutes of what looks to me like somewhat plain animation every couple months. I don't think the two are on the same level.

>>2271Not to mention that they want to "emulate" city design of countries that they have never lived in, visited or really even know about.
Amsterdam is a nightmare to travel around in any form of transportation.
No.2276
>>2271Another thing that drives me crazy is how much they talk up "traditional architecture" as superior to "modern architecture". There's no such thing as "traditional architecture". You're comparing millennia worth of different styles
that evolved independently all over the world to a small handful of closely related movements from the same ~100 year period. No shit more people are going to like "traditional" more; there's significantly more of it to like.
No.2277
>>2273I saw at least one nutcase say that people crave a "sense of enclosure", which I'm pretty sure is the exact opposite of what most actual living breathing human beings want.
>>2271>>2275They confuse "nice to visit" and "nice looking" with "nice to live in".
When you take a vacation somewhere, you don't have to interact with the ugly bits that citizens do, and you don't have the time to get tired of the good parts. There's a good reason that most photos of Amsterdam, for example, are of nice looking buildings next to nice looking canals, with the inconvenient innards of the city being treated like an out-of-bounds area in a game.

>>2292That's the excuse people use to not bother at all.
But I think it's flawed because while people do have different tastes they can agree on certain things and the majority will sway a certain way. Plus even if you can't please everybody you should steal try to make something beautiful.
No.2300
>>2299My point is more that it's not a definite 'thing'. The utility of language is to communicate ideas, and, in general, if a term isn't bound to a clearly defined concept—if we argue over what it means—it's useless as a term. What I'm suggesting is that we break down the various, at times mutually-exclusive ideas represented under the banner of "beauty", and then seek out more precise ways of describing each of them.
No.2301
>>2300To a degree but people's view on beauty is more closely aligned than you would think and there is a lot of common ground there.
Pretty much everybody would agree that Venice is beautiful or that the alps are beautiful for example.
Many terms are bound by far less defined concepts.
No.2302
>>2301My umbrage with the term is that people use it as if it were a clearly defined thing unto itself, as opposed to an abstract category that contains several other, more concrete ideas. Writing a poem about the value of beauty, from my perspective, is the same as writing a poem about the value of goodness; you're not really
saying anything.

Starship might launch today, they are hoping for 8 AM CT, which is about an hour away.
