infreq, in Does "Rock music is evil / of the devil" have racist roots?

Funny how just the first few lines of your post clearly establishes that you are from the US

Can_you_change_your_username,

As another person from the US, I don't find it funny at all. A bit disheartening actually.

Twodozeneggs, (edited ) in Which YouTuber still creates high-quality videos to this day?

Cooking

youtube.com/Chef John is a treasure, every recipe I’ve followed of his has been a banger! Highly recommend

Guitar related

youtube.com/Eric Haugen is a fantastic guitar player/teacher, I love his mellow Bob Ross-esque vibe

youtube.com/Philip McKnight is the god of the guitar gear heads. Has a ton of great videos showing how to do simple guitar repairs, reviewing gear etc.

Comedy/pop culture

youtube.com/Internet comments etiquette is a hilarious channel that teaches how to leave respectful comments in this increasingly hostile and confusing online world.

youtube.com/Red Letter Media - movie/tv critics with great skits and characters. Maybe the best thing on YouTube IMO

Board Games

youtube.com/Really great board game reviews, I’ve found a bunch of my favorite games here

Educational

youtube.com/Amazing 3d renders and walkthroughs of complex machines/systems. The video on the HMS Victory is inspired.

youtube.com/Professor Dave does science education, great videos on many topics.

Motorcycles

youtube.com/FortNine puts out the best moto content I’ve found on the Internet.

Chef John is literally the best! Every time some other popular YouTube cook puts out a recipe talking about how xyz is the authentic way to do it and they take half an hour to explain everything, chef john already had a video recipe for it from 5 years ago with exactly the right/authentic ingredients and technique in a 10 min straightforward video. Or he’ll have the practical way to make something that gets you 90% of the way there with half the effort and cost. And you actually end up with something good when you follow his recipes. Especially important when making food you’ve never eaten before and have no frame of reference for how it should be.

Twodozeneggs,

He’s the best, his technique explanation videos, his recipes…

He really wrote the book, on how to be a YouTube cook

;)

leaky_shower_thought, in What movies would you make if you had an AGI that could make any kind of media on demand?

the most darkest (aka “real”) version of fairy tales and folk lore that can be possibly made with cgi.

any “real” princesses from this story won’t be talking to birds and/ or forest creatures but have great hearts and wills of steel. “real” princes are welcome too.

coaxil, in Which carbonated soft drink is the best?

Bundaberg ginger beer! It’s the only answer

boatsnhos931, in Your partner/mom/cat has been kidnapped, and the only way to save them is to "write a comment that is guaranteed to get downvoted on Lemmy." What do you comment?

The only people worse than the gays are the blacks. Trump 2024 BAYBAY!!

Landmammals, in What's your wider fediverse setup?

I’ve never used mastodon. What I need to know is: am I missing out on Star Trek memes by not using it?

Haha, unfortunately I’m not much of a Star Trek fan so I can’t answer that one.

SheerDumbLuck,

nerdculture.de/

Mastodon is 70%+ of all activitypub posting. It’s got a lot more content due to its format. It’s just a different experience? Sometimes overwhelming, but then you just look at or or and life is better.

i_dont_want_to, in Which carbonated soft drink is the best?

Oh man I am crazy for Jones Soda. Fufu Berry (which is hard to find in my area), Cream, and Berry Lemonade are my favorites.

It is pretty expensive, but for an occasional treat it’s not bad.

I used to love Coke, Mountain Dew, and Monster but I cut back and now they taste gross to me.

3laws, in Which carbonated soft drink is the best?

Natural: Ginger+orange kombucha & homemade tonic water. Cold brew nitro.

(Nitro is soft… Right?)

Store bought: Canada Dry tonic.

Tonic has to be the best soft drink ever, once used to actually treat sickness now I can just have it with my cold brew or espresso everyday without the sugar high.

Lnrdrople, in Which carbonated soft drink is the best?

Canada Dry ginger ale I guess, good chaser for the rare whiskies I don’t like neat. Honorary mention for Pommac, but I have not had it probably 10+ years

dhhyfddehhfyy4673, in Which carbonated soft drink is the best?

Sadly doesn't exist anymore (and hasn't in decades), but the answer is Josta.

prashanthvsdvn, (edited ) in Which YouTuber still creates high-quality videos to this day?

Internet Historian, Mustard, Real Engineering, Wendover Productions, Gigguk (for anime), The Squidd

Edit: Didn’t know about plagiarism problem Internet Historian got into

Aya,

Weird including Internet Historian after the Hbomberguy video. Wouldn’t care so much but I found Historian’s statement on it pretty gross. Doesn’t seem to take the plagerism very seriously.

prashanthvsdvn,

Oh I’m not aware of this situation.

afraid_of_zombies, in Why in the year 2024 and with all the knowledge humans have now do people still believe in religion?

Might be a bit shocking but it wasn’t knowledge that deconverted me.

Kolanaki, in What experience crushed your soul?
@Kolanaki@yiffit.net avatar

Life in general. Like a hydraulic press.

afraid_of_zombies, (edited ) in Howard Zinn people's history of America, I'm reading it at the moment, is there any alternative?

Meh you might as well keep reading him. Fake history sells better than real history. He took his alternative facts, fit them into his model, and did it in an entertaining way. And this is of course justified because some history class somewhere supposedly was too cheerful.

Lets stop pretending that we care about what is true and what is not.
