"you lack vision, but i see a premium video company where people log on and off our app. on and off, off and on all day, all night. soon, where free apps once stood will be an aggregation of interactive video, popular stars, and thoughtfully-curated content. lighthouse productions, quick bites, and rotatable point of view as far as your phone can turn. my god, it'll be profitable."

have you heard of quibi, the mobile-only video streaming service that has been brought into the world by this pair of corporate liches, jeffrey katzenberg and meg whitman (you might recall thjat whitman was the ceo of HP and she fuckin sucked at it. the only good thing she did was axe webOS):



it launched in april or whatever and i just started paying attention to it now so if more funny things have happened since then tell me

quibi is some hilarious bullshit that could only have arisen from a c-suite hotbox. they somehow raised 1 billion earth dollars for what might be the dumbest idea for a streaming platform ever (except for crunchyroll, the streaming platform for pedophiles). imagine this: you get to pay $5 to watch E X C L U S I V E tiktok videos on your phone with a bunch of ads. BUT you can pay $8 a month to not see the ads.

lets hear the visionary leaders explain quiburp!!! when asked why the gently caress anyone cares about his dumbass dead end platform, katzenberg explains:


ya ok sounds like you're either lying or oblivious but either way go on


uhhh maybe theres a really good value proposition


what is it that hollywood knows how to do?

oh its this:


lmbo

but wait they have some hot-as-fire streaming tech that its gonna knock ur fuckin dick off: portrait AND landscape support


anyway if youre concerned this platform might not take off have i got some news for you

doesn't surprise me in the slightest. there's a book called DisneyWar which is basically the rise and fall of michael eisner at disney, but it also touches on katzenberg because he and eisner had a massive falling out


and my recollection from that book is that katzenberg basically just lived life in a perpetual state of meeting. at his office he'd constantly have two lines active, talking to someone on one while his secretary queued up a call on the other, and just bounce to the other line as soon as the first call was 'done'. in-person visitors would get squeezed in for up to thirty seconds between calls as time permitted. never arrived at a meeting on time; people in the studio basically learned to just post a lookout for his car, and only when he was sighted would they actually convene in the conference room.

Every morning I wake up and slam the What's New button in quibi. It's Quibi's Big Bang Theory spinoff and right then and there I start saying the jokes alongside with the main character, Sheldon Cooper. I recite every pop-culture reference they can cram into 5 minutes. Making math jokes and computer sound effects with my mouth. Not many can say they can watch videos cropped perfectly for both portrait and landscape mode. I can. I say it and I say it out loud every day to people on my favorite computer forum and all they do is prove people on yospos can still be immature jerks. And I've seen all the quibi content and I've learned how to make myself and my apartment less lonely by rewatching all of it every day. 2 hours including wind down every morning. Then I post.
