Bahalex,

Nice to see an audio gear guy say “if it sounds good to you who cares about what the ‘audiophiles’ say” and “more flashy lights on the hi-fi!”

Things I haven’t seen.

’ Steve mould - does cool little kiddie explanations of physical phenomenons.

  • Foureyes furniture - a bit asmr, but a woodworking channel. Guy makes neat stuff and talks about life while doing it.
  • Wristwatch revival - alsp kinda ASMR, but guy takes apart and repairs mechanical watches. Very repetitive after the first few watches, but I keep watching anyway.
thejodie,

It seems that Steve Mould looks progressively more tired in his videos as he goes along.

  • Lemmino. Quality only got better over the years. Started as a top 10 memes channel. Then became top 10 cool subjects presented like documentaries. Now it’s actual documentaries.
  • Gameranx. Watched them when they were still just two or three dudes just talking about games. All those years, they made it pretty big on YouTube, and they still didn’t lose that vibe.

Fosheze, in Is it just my circle, or has it been a challenge getting into the Christmas/holiday spirit the last couple of years?

My impression is just that nobody has the money for it anymore.

jeffhykin, (edited )

really? For me it’s more of a not having time. Doesn’t cost much to go caroling, watch Charlie Brown, cut paper snowflakes, make handmade gifts, etc

Fosheze,

Money is time. When you spend all of your time and energy focusing on working, eating, and sleeping because you’re too broke to do anything else, it doesn’t leave you with much time or energy to care about christmas.

SlopppyEngineer,

Yeah, if you’re working it all just becomes decorations along your commute, interrupted by a few busy family days followed by more work.

CaptKoala,

Money is the issue with all holidays in recent times. Take the fuckin’ money out of it, it should never have been involved in the first place.

Christmas is a whole month dedicated to consumerism and kitsch. It’s no surprise you’re bored of it now.

speck,

yup! It can be hard to sustain holiday cheer for 5+ weeks

You’re right that it’s about consumerism for many people, but it doesn’t have to be.

Damaskox,

There are ideas and arguments that can counter consumerism.

For instance - putting away same old decorations and reusing them should lower consumerism somewhat.

afraid_of_zombies,

I reuse the same decorations over and over again and don’t really think I am doing anything special.

BeardedSingleMalt,

Xmas 2020 with all the "shortages", at the Target and WalMarts near me the holiday aisles was very scant, and practically completely picked over by the week before. I had genuinely hoped that could have been an eye opener for America.

Spoiler alert: it didn't

Wait, do people NOT do this? I use the same shit every year unless it’s broken and I can’t fix it. Usually my cats are in some way to blame for that.

My cousins have upped this game. They have toddlers. Starting in Feb, they begin stealing back the least popular toys and hiding them in the attic. Then they regift them back to the kids next Christmas. They only buy a couple new items every year.

It reduces clutter in the house and will probably work until around 6, when they plan to shift from regifting to donating.

afraid_of_zombies,

I assume most do. No I am not going to spend hours trying to remember some cheap plastic thing I bought a decade ago from the dollar store but if it’s fine sure I put it away for next year

Damaskox,
@Damaskox@kbin.social avatar

Dunno how many do/don't do it 😁

I just wanted to point out a rather obvious idea 😂
Earth would also thank you!

BeardedSingleMalt,

Or you could be like my mom, who has to buy a new fake tree like every year.

sik0fewl,

They actually have these things now called real trees that are perfect for discarding every year after you are done with them.

Starbuck,

I even paid extra for a biodegradable one!

Blamemeta,

They leave needles everywhere. Imo, better to just use the same fake tree for decades.

SgtAStrawberry,

They have actually found way of making some of them so that they ether don’t leave needles around or if they do that needles are soft. Super nice, it has been our tree type of choice for a few years now.

The Dungeon Dudes are always solid if you want DnD content. Even their episodes where you wouldn’t expect great talking points they somehow pull it off.

There would be another president & the west wouldn’t be happy with that one either

Makes great visual math videos. Without him I would have never studied electronics.

theherk,

Also wrote open source software to generate those fantastic visualizations. It has been forked and is maintained, and it has therefore influenced the whole genre positively.

On the topic, Brady Haran’s channels are also putting out great educational content.

LastYearsPumpkin, (edited )

Damn, I was going to post this list, you beat me to it though.

I love that whole maths group, Brady Haran, Matt Parker, Hannah Fry, James Grimes, Ben Sparks, Ayliean MacDonald… (and so many more.)

As soon as I get a notification that a new Numberphile video drops, I’m watching it ASAP.

Olhonestjim, in Which YouTuber still creates high-quality videos to this day?

Clickspring makes some of the most beautiful, soothing, detail obsessed machining videos imaginable. Dude builds complex gear works from scratch, including a replica of the Antikythera mechanism which is still in progress after many years, though nearly finished now.

theherk,

Hell yes. The blueing is so satisfying every single time. And such precision.
