Sovietwomble has been consistently obsessed with the quality of his videos. He also consistently makes me laugh.

Commanders quarters. Started as an interesting budget build magic the gathering commander deck channel and in less than a year went from that to click bait, 7 videos a day between 10-15 minutes about spoiled cards from whatever the new set coming out is. It absolutely flooded my feed and was completely worthless.

There was also some drama about the lead guys opinions about other IPs getting cards (the walking dead being the first) and how it was the end times for that particular flavor of inked up cardboard.

jacktherippah, in What companies have made your blacklist?

I loathe Samsung. Their bootloader unlocking is bullshit. Never getting another dollar from me ever again.

TauriWarrior,

? I unlocked bootloader easily, just enabled it in settings on my note 20 ultra

jacktherippah,

You’ve just tripped Knox and permanently lost multiple features

If I remember correctly just “unlocking” doesn’t trip Knox. However installing custom boot or rom, does.

jacktherippah,

It does. Unlocking the Samsung bootloader blows the e-fuse. Locking your bootloader again won’t do anything to restore functionality.

It’s been a while since I rooted Samsung device.

paf0,

Yup. Samsung sold smartwatches that promised an upcoming ECG feature to have it only available when connected to a Samsung phone when it came out, but not other Android phones. They also try and force you to put their TVs on your network so they can track everything you do. Never again.

You’re not missing out on much. I stopped using the ecg feature on the Samsung watches when it gave me an AFib warning and I went to a doctor about it. They hooked me up to an EKG and said I was fine and looked at the chart my watch generated and said the chart there also looked fine. I put on both my apple watch and galaxy watch and was measuring both at the same time and the apple watch gave out either high heart rate (I just got back from a walk) or inconclusive meanwhile the galaxy watch fired off another false AFib warning.

I’m still rocking my 15+ year old Syncmaster 245BW as my rack monitor and that’s the last Samsung item I purchased.

Fall of Civilizations, though those are podcasts first. All of them are amazing.

Lockpicking Lawyer makes the best short videos. Not “yt shorts”, it’s just that it takes him 2-5 seconds to pick open the vast majority of locks, the rest of the video is his comment on the lock quality.

JoshStrifeHayes has 3 separate channels now, but that main channel that deals with MMOs still makes quality content in my opinion, but not as often. I also enjoy him playing the old games on JoshStrifePlays.

I did a thing is fun.

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

In no particular order:

  • Mind of Watercolor - Steve Mitchell
  • Paul Clark
  • Escape to Rural France
  • Mark Rober
  • SloMo Guys
  • Bear Essentials
  • Primitive Technology
  • Adventure Archives

There’s also a fair amount of surprisingly good fan films in various franchises.

I get a surprising amount of use out of 0x123456, which is midnight-sea-bluish color, as a background shade.

Posy, I am surprised at que quality of his videos, they are incredibly artistic

I like longer form videos, and humor of “the old Internet” so here’s some channels that still make long videos that aren’t filled zoomer click bait. In no particular order. This is from memory, I’m too lazy to make these into links. Also I’m sure there are others I can’t think of.

Our own devices

  • This channel stands out because it’s relatively new but it feels like a channel that should have millions of subs. Long videos about retro tech and tech history

Forgotten weapons

  • history of firearms. Longer format videos.

LGR

  • retro computers and old PC games

Gman lives

  • great gaming channel that reminds me of the era of TotalBiscuit. Good long videos about new and old videos games.

RedletterMedia

  • this channel is the Midwestern TopGear of B movie reviews.

GamersNexus

  • best source of PC tech news

Level1Techs

  • best source of general tech news and has a lot of PC gaming and tinkering content.

RegularCarReviews

  • funny car reviews. Format hasn’t changed in over 10 years.

Second wind

  • new channel. The crew that made all good videos on escapist (zero punctuation) left and made their own channel to keep doing the same thing.

dynamojoe, in What do you think would happen if Putin was assassinated right now?

There would be a power vacuum, probably a few murders/suicides/defenstrations, and the elections scheduled for a few months from now will probably be postponed during the struggle for leadership of the country. My guess is the powers that eventually take over will agree to pull out of Ukraine, conduct a few show trials, and do whatever else they think they have to in order for the west to lift the sanctions and unlock the oligarch’s accounts.

It would please me greatly to know that Ukraine will outlive Putin.

pugsnroses77, in How many tabs do you have open?

my firefox app gave up counting and just shows an infinity symbol :(

Swarfega,

That’s all I ever see on my wife’s phone in Chrome. Just a smiley face. Personally it bugs the shit out of me. I close any unwanted tabs.

phone in Chrome

I was so confused when I saw that face in my parents phones, I thought it was some kind of easter egg, well, maybe it actually is.

androidul,

hey I saw that as well on my wife’s chrome on phone, it’s really scary

Vilian,

chrome don’t have a way to automaticly close tabs like firefox?

Swarfega,

Not that I know of

ctag,
@ctag@lemmy.sdf.org avatar

That’s… kinda scary. How much RAM do you have?

DarkThoughts,

Doesn't matter that much if they're unloaded.

take notes Chrome

kratoz29,
@kratoz29@lemm.ee avatar

Chrome in Android behaves very similar to Firefox, perhaps a bit more aggressive due to being a system app.

Firefox in macOS keeps all my tabs open, and that is a huge perk for me, Safari would just randomly unload them because of high resource usage crap, like dude, I have 16 GBs or RAM, let me hoard enjoy it.
