      The tl/dw is that a retrospective of history often allows us to draw parallels to the present and predict the future.

        ‘Documentary’ - something that could be consumed in 10% of the time as an article.

          Yeah, kinda. GamersNexus is popular for their no-bullshit PC benchmarking and their “indie” documentaries on anti-consumer behaviors tangentially related to gaming hardware.

          The tldr is pretty much the title - the context is the video if you’re interested. The video may be long format but I don’t agree with what the other dude said about this being better served as an article. Steve (long hair dude) is pretty respectful of his consumer’s time. I think they post most of their videos as articles on their website too - ad free.
