His take is like if malignant narcissism and the Protestant work ethic had a baby.
And even so. Even if people took more breaks when working from home who the fuck cares so long as they get their job done? Nobody works for a solid 8 hours out of the day. Nobody. I don't care if you're the CEO or a grunt working the front lines. Everybody takes a break, fucks off to do something else or doesn't work as hard as they're supposed to. And so long as they get their job done at the end of the day that's all that matters.

Also, everybody I know that works from home actually gets more accomplished because there's less distractions. Something Fatty would know if he actually had a real job.

Last week he wanted to fix fraud and essentially explained how he wants banks to have multifactor authentication system for debit card purchases.
That's why you have a PIN that you can choose to enter. What else is he suggesting? A fingerprint scanner? A retinal scanner? The need to punch "yes" on your phone as the terminal would send you an SMS message asking, "is this you trying to spend $26.89 at (*name of business here*)?". That's fucking retarded.

The whole point of a debit card is that you don't carry large sums of cash with you.

It is probably unreleased "dishwasher salmon" videon when he was in his sandwich baggy fetish phase. The timeline tracks with the ommeltte timeline IIRC.

Jack get frothing buttmad triggered when people bring up the much hyped dishwarsher_salmon video.
To be fair he probably went about it in a retarded way. You can cook salmon in a dishwasher but you need to make sure it's hot enough in there and the bag has no air. He probably just stuck a piece of frozen fish in a Ziplock baggie, didn't remove all the air and didn't close it completely so the water got in.
 
Most of us who WFH have roles in which we are paid based on the results we drive, i.e. output. Whereas Jack is an old retard dumb enough to think employers should pay based on input.

This is just another reason why he’s a failure.
 

AMISH MONDAY MOMENT #1​

If this is the level of his "learning" about the Amish then it's exactly what I expected.

Fatty doesn't understand shit as there's more than one sect of Amish out there. And there's modern Amish that use electricity and have smartphones and stuff. The difference is they don't use their phones for anything other than making phone calls. There's no internet capabilities on them as they feel that takes away from the family and spending time with them in real time.

That's the whole point. They can and will adopt modern conveniences if it's useful and doesn't take away from anything.
 
Thinking about Jack gives me a headache, so I don't know why I returned to his livestream from yesterday. But I'm glad I did, because I got to click the timestamp suggested by "Garrett" (lol) in the comment section:


Some gold:



Now I'm no fancy big-city psychologist (adjusts suspenders) but there is something diagnosably wrong with him:
  1. Who is "acting like they're Mother Teresa" because they work from home? Obvious strawman is obvious, but also let's not forget: Mother Teresa sucked.
  2. No one is asking for "proof" that people take breaks when they work from home. They did the same when they were in the office.
  3. Jack hasn't a real job in 20 years -- why does he care?
  4. He's also clearly never had the constitution to have a real job; his "career" is just oddball flights of fancy (graveshift DJ, "talent" "agent," guy who burns CDs for you, sauce hawker, online show host).
  5. While the federal mandates have happened, yes, RTO in general feels like a low-tier issue in the culture war? Two planes have crashed and our closest ally is openly mourning us and plotting revenge (lol) and you're worried about people getting fresh air and doing chores if it's between 9 and 5?
  6. HE WORKS FROM HOME.
His take is like if malignant narcissism and the Protestant work ethic had a baby.
100% this. Jack doesn't work, and hasn't worked in two decades. His input on the modern job market, how to be a professional, the impact of WFH etc is completely worthless (or even more worthless than it was when he played pretend DJ etc).

How people, whom it doesn't impact in ANY real way, get so worked up about people who can/are working remotely blows my mind. If you hired people who can't be trusted unless you're literally standing over their shoulder, you hired the wrong people. If a bunch of mid tier managers can't justify their jobs without that micro managing, you have too many mid tier managers. Jack, as usual, is just copying the talking points about whatever issue of the day he's told to be mad about.

He just can't help but use some of the worst AI slop... this is what he put on screen to show "electronic devices"

It basically boils down to does it either (1) interfere with the family, personal interaction and community bonds, (2) interfere with the worship of God, (3) encourage vanity, pride and worldly attitudes towards class and possessions.

If not, it's typically OK but that conclusion varies significantly between Amish sects. And like anybody else, they're human beings who bend and break the rules from time to time.
 
Weird, often incoherent, babble about the Amish.

Is he now fascinated by the Amish because a large number of them voted for Trump and won him PA?
I wouldn't be shocked, since there's little to no way he knows of them that well other than a few incidental times he tried to talk about them when he first moved to TN and noticed they sold seasoning or whatever.

I didn't even bother to really look at the image but that's some freaking "electronic devices". I have to wonder what's the point of a double lens camera, a tablet with an antenna and... .whatever the hell that thing on the top left is?

There's a videographer out there that I really like called Peter Santenello. His whole thing is he talks to people. He'll go to... Compton and speak to the people there including gang members and gets their stories. Or the Hassidic Jews in New York or, the Amish. He's interviewed a bunch of them from all over and other than the ultra-conservative and traditional ones they're all over the place. One group he spoke to drive cars, have smart phones, live in really nice houses that have electricity and have things like fridges and whatever. One of them runs his own business and showed his smartphone. But he also showed that it had no internet capabilities, games or anything of that nature. It was just a phone he could use to call people or get calls.

Fatty is so uninformed about EVERYTHING and yet he still thinks he's smarter than most people.

That's gotta be part of it. He's never seemingly spoken about them in the past but now it's suddenly important.

Besides it's either that or make another chili recipe.

Stereoscopic film cameras definitely exist, but we know full well that mushbrain just asked grok to give him an image of electronic devices, and he went with the first result because he can't actually see the problems with the AI slop images.

I love this guy and his documentaries.

Being in heavily Amish country, or Hasidic/Orthodox Jewish country, Appalachia or anywhere you're really not the majority helps shape your perspective on being the minority instead of the majority. Being worried about your cultural faux pas instead of expecting everyone to conform to what you want is a real change in mindset.

Anybody who's even found themselves lost in a hardcore Hispanic barrio knows what a relief it is to find some regular black dude at the gas station. African/European Americans are way closer to each other than we think or would like to admit.

I know they exist, if you've ever seen a "3D picture" like in those old "Viewmaster" things it was taken with one of those, but they don't look like that. That one literally looks like a Minolta with an extra bit attached to it. The lenses are even different. You want one with the same exact lenses. That's kinda the whole point. Take two pictures of the same scene slightly apart so when you view them you get that 3D effect.

What I love about his work is that you feel it's 100% judgement free. He's literally just talking to regular folk going about their lives. He's respectful and you feel he's doing this because he wants them to tell their story without embellishment. He's just there to ask genuine questions and get real answers.
 
Whenever Jack sets himself up as some wise authority on anything, I just remember Tammy wandering through a video with a box of 1100+ baby wipes, and as they have no infant anywhere near, you know they're for Jack's crippled useless ass.

Well sure, it's AI slop. It's the equivalent of extra fingers or shit melding into other shit.

That could be it, but I think another part of it is also the fact he hasn't had an original idea or hasn't been truly inspired about cooking for years now. And when that happens, what do you have left but gimmicks?

Yesterday it was chili, today it's Amish, tomorrow it may as well be hillbilly cuisine or surfer cuisine or soul food* or whatever. He can't run a cooking channel based around teaching or demonstrating technique, so XYZ But Make It Whatever is all he's got.

* lol not that Jack would ever be comfortable making soul food videos (he'd deride it all as "super unhealthy" despite the fact he mainlines butter and strip-mall steak)

Jack would never try to do soul food, focusing on African American cuisine would make him "woke" in his own eyes. He said something about "the blacks" (direct quote) when talking about Black History Month during his last live stream.
