Like that single decision means there are literally millions more videos now with whole extra minutes just to get another ad break or some shit, all taking up space on a server somewhere for no real reason whatsoever other than that every facet of our society seems to need to be its own monument to waste, excess, greed and short sightedness
AND WE "NEED" MORE DATA CENTERS 
I thought about this because I found out today Netflix (with WIT Studios animating it) is remaking the One Piece anime and then i saw some nerd video like NETFLIX IS DROPPING THE BALL and was like, oh no! expecting there to be some weird executive meddling, but no, the guy's just super mad that Netflix is going to release all 7 episodes at once, calling it anti community or whatever.
The video went on for EIGHT MINUTES that i didn't watch, and that got me thinking about this shit
Anyway, super excited about the one piece remake personally, even more excited i don't need to sit around waiting for it to drop every week (and wonder where the fuck it is when the Japanese have one of their weirdo holidays).
It's kinda wild to me that it's taken this long, given how tremendously bad the animation and pacing of early One Piece was. It's like they gave the best shounen of all time to one of the worst animation studios. You'd think they'd have re done One Piece before doing Dragon Ball Kai since it's far and away the best selling manga of all time (but maybe dragon ball has made more profit? Idk)
while i'm shit talking Toei i just wanna say I would be FUCKING EMBARRASSED working at an animation company whose animated logo looks the way theirs does, like, off-brand Puss-in-Boots from Shrek looking piece of shit. shameful, bad craftsmanship
now imagine this post was a 10 minute video taking up a gigabyte in some data center in some shithole in Arizona because i needed another ad break for you to skip/block
This belief in particular always bothers me when I encounter it because like fucking muskets before rifling were not accurate enough to use with small unit tactics while taking cover you had to stand in a big block and fire a huge volley and you would be lucky to score one hit per 300 shots at 100 yards in truth all of the musket warfare that happened at a certain point in time was really just spear warfare with extra steps because the battles were predominantly decided by bayonet charges.
This didn't really change until the mid 19th century when all of the American civil war generals found out the hard way that war did not work the way they imagined it did.
that was the first big war where everyone had rifles, no?
No, rifles became more than a curiosity only in Napoleonic Wars, and became a mass armament only from the Crimean War onwards.
yeah, i knew they started using rifleman units in the napoleonic wars in small numbers, but forgot about the crimean war. so yeah, 5-10 years before the ACW. so the civil wars was the second big war where everyone had rifles.
Oh, I thought you were referring to the Seven Years War initially.
And IIRC, in the Second Italian War of Independence of 1859 majority of troops were already rifle-armed.
Also there was no real communications technology, so moving in big blocks was the only way to actually order the troops around. Early attempts at small unit tactics were basically "send them in the direction of the enemy and hope they do something instead of desertion/looting/failing to find the enemy and just fucking around".
Plus there's the fact that doing things becomes exponentially harder when you're under fire. I remember reading about a Prussian military trial where they had a line of soldiers shoot at a big sheet and they counted the number of holes and they got 20 holes or something like that but then they compared that to their battlefield reports and they found that at the same range with the same number of shots they were only getting one or two hits in battlefield conditions so it's not that shooting the muskets wasn't valuable, there's a reason why warfare went into Pike and shot and then into all muskets, it's just that militaries used the tactics that were appropriate to their armaments.
In the same way we're seeing modern militaries adjust to modern armaments and in 100 years or so I'm sure people are going to ask "well why didn't they always use drones"
