Brianna Wu / John Flynt - DEAGLE NATION STILL LIVES

[Buck Bumble]

Which is why it tasted like undistilled garbage and they added all sorts of sugars and flavorings to make it taste like some nondescript something.

Could be worse, from what I understand originally all he did to make it taste 'better' was add peanut butter and fish oil.

Should be a picture of that shit with a Blue Ribbon logo.

I can't really see Frank eating/drinking any Soylent crap at all. He's educated enough to know what the stuff is.

Frank guzzles Powerade to accompany his Blue Apron evening meals. I think it's safe to say he has no taste.

 

[Batman VS Tony Danza]

Do you think that when Frank first took a gargle of that sweet Soylent sustenance, it made him misty eyed and nostalgic of his first night with pre-op Brianna? Except this time he kept it down because his gag reflex wasn't being tested.

At least the Blue Apron stuff is real, solid food, even if the quality is somewhat questionable.

Soylent looks like it's been digested for you already.

~250kcal/1046kJ per 60g serving (1 bar). 12g protein, 10g fat and 30g carbo's. Amazing.

.

Calorie wise, that's barely, barely better than eating a fucking choux bun (and would be if the choux bun were 60g) and the choux bun is lower in both fat and carbohydrates.

I don't get why Wu doesn't try and shill something overpriced but edible, like Graze or something.

Because Wu is just as much of a lazy, stupid hipster as the creator of Soylent.

Plus, I imagine the smoking has totally wrecked her palate.

I can't really see Frank eating/drinking any Soylent crap at all. He's educated enough to know what the stuff is.

Just taking a look at the ingredients in the "Soylent Bar":

Soy Protein Isolate, Corn Syrup, Oat Flour, Canola Oil, Clycerine, Whole Algae Floue, Isomaltulose, Isomaltooligosaccharide Fiber, Oatmeal, Creamer, Vitamin and Mineral Blend, Soy Lecithin, Water, Tapioca Starch, Flavrings, Salt, Sucralose, Mixed Tocopherol

Isomaltulose: Is just a sugar. Apparently it's a middle thing between Glucose and Fructose, which is nice, but it's still just a sugar.

Sucralose: A sugar. No dietary benefits. All it does is make things taste sweeter.

Clycerine: Just call it Glycerol! It's a sweetner in the food industry. It's also used to make, among others, suppositories, toothpaste, lubricants and soap. It has no dietary benefit other than to make things taste sweet.

Isomaltooligosaccharide: A starch. It's there to make digestion of your product harder because with all the sugars in it you'd probably just get the drizzling shits. It will also make you feel fuller I suppose.

Tocopherols: Antioxidant and small(?) vitamin E source.

Corn Syrup: Really? Ugh... 'merica.

Soy Protein Isolate: I'm pretty sure that gets used in weight gain powders.

Soy Lecithin: Soy oil I'm assuming. Meh.

The rest is pretty self explanitory.

What do you get for eating sugar with flavor, starch and oil?

~250kcal/1046kJ per 60g serving (1 bar). 12g protein, 10g fat and 30g carbo's. Amazing.

Moral of the story: If you want to eat something healthy on the go eat literally anything but don't preach about the amazing health benefits of fucking Soylent food, because at best it's mediocore and at worst it might have heavy metals in it.

And if there really are near toxic levels of arsenic in that stuff you NEED TO AVOID IT alltogether.

So basically a 40oz and a mulitvitamin sounds healthier.

Actually, Wu shilling for Soylent and Blue Apron at the same time is a bit of a dichotomy. Both products might aim for the upper-middle-class target group, who wants to save time on buying foodstuffs and eat healthy anyway, but while Blue Apron tries to market itself as 'Cuisine you can make yourself, delivered to your doorstep', Soylent is... well, it's name is fucking "Soylent" what else can I say?

If I was working at Blue Apron, I would've terminated the contract with Brianna Wu after the second picture she tweeted. Not only because she also shills the opposite idea, of what I am trying to sell to rich, hip millennial idiots, who can't shop in a grocery store without a GPS... but because every promotional picture she has posted was a disaster.
It's not the way the food looked on the plates, these days people don't expect that their food looks like in the picture - you consciously don't expect your burger to look like on the menu either. It's things like the fucking bottles of Powerrade on the table (instead of wine), dogs thrown into tiny cages locked with zip ties, that fucking filth everywhere and not to forget that screaming Asian guy, who apparently lost the ability to appear normal on photos.

An overlooked fact when it comes to photos: People also do notice 'flaws' on a subconscious level. It's often responsible for the "I don't like it that much, but I can't tell why"-feeling. However, if everything looks immaculate, it's fine. You know these pictures where you have mommy, daddy and 1.4 kids doing something family-like while grinning like they are all on speed? Just take a moment to notice their surroundings, the lawn will be something you could rub into the Queens face, there wont be not a spec of dirt or grime anywhere, the sky will be blue and dotted with lovely clouds, the plants will be green as fuck...

Sure, if you know that a photo was taken by an amateur, you can be more forgiving on a subconscious level, but most of you probably can't deny it that they felt something was 'off' with the photos, even before you noticed all the little details.

Being aware of it or not, in the end you see a picture where people eat Blue Apron... in a filthy house, while the Asian Guy behaves like a 9-year-old at McDonalds, that there is a dog caged on one side of the image and there are plastic bottles of some neon-colored drink on a table, that wasn't even set properly.

This does not convey the 'feeling' I would want to sell with my product.

Or, you know, just take one screenshot at the largest size then scale/crop as appropriate.

Why even that? I mean, the app store isn't a thing that's different for EVERY IPHONE SIZE EVER MADE right? It should just automatically resize/fit the image as is appropriate for the model you use.

 

[AngeloTheWizard]

I was under the impression that screenshots in the App Store would just be scaled to whatever full screen is for your particular device. I mean fuck, Steam doesn't demand you take five screenshots for every PC resolution, it just pops open a really big window if you wanna see the screenshot in full size. It's such a cop-out argument that even people who have zero experience with iPhones can see right through it.

Each time she has to hit the print key, a haunting groan echoes through the Wu estate. But don't worry, she's a software engineer. She'll make it.

...and just as you think, that her excuses for delaying the release can't get any dumber...

Stop making excuses, John. Release your disco light infested "masterpiece" and let the salt flow.

 

[Ruin]

This is actually a very rare day for Wu, Konami released a trailer for a Metal Gear themed COD zombie shooter. For one day Revolution 60 isn't the worst looking game on the internet.

 

[Breakfast 4 Dinner]

Even if Wu did have to make seperate images for each possible resolution, thats still only about a half a days work for even the most low level graphic designer. Pretty sure you could also set up a Photoshop action to automate a lot of the process.

It's almost as if Giant Spacekat's dev team consists of Wu and nobody else.

Mmmmm....
