Every time I see something I like on YouTube my first reaction is … how long is the video.

Ten minutes? Great, learn something new in ten minutes

Half an hour? Good, I have some time for that.

An hour? Maybe if I feel up to it

Six hours!!! Who the hell has that much time?

FrederikNJS,

Mine is more like:

10 minutes? Oh neat, that sounds like a nice little snack, maybe a new topic to discover?

Half an hour? Oooh, this could get interesting, this could be a pretty good introduction to the topic.

An hour? Nice, someone clearly did some research and isn’t skimping in details! Time to learn something.

Six hours? Holy heck, this topic must be much deeper than I though! This person clearly did some homework and has something to say! Time to get consumed.

Theharpyeagle,

I always go “I’m not gonna watch this whole thing.” Then, six hours later…

cyborganism, in Only $79.99

I can’t believe this used to be an actual medical procedure. It’s horrifying.

cows_are_underrated,

And the inventor got a fucking price for this(he still has it)

cannibalkitteh,

An actual medical procedure that, at the time, husbands could authorize done to their wives without consent.

cyborganism,

Fucking hell

Bakkoda,

More like 2030. Maybe even 2025.

I pull on a push door because I am the door man and the door doesn’t close by itself and I’m closing the door.

Did someone say hour-long video-game essays?

kpw,
RGB3x3,

Found this fascinating one about the old flash game World’s Hardest Game:

youtu.be/sU851gBd7WQ

JPSound,

Holy shit! Thank you for this! I’ve seen many of these already and loved them all. It’s great to see that there are many more for me in the near future again!

moistclump, in number 6 will shock you

And on the third day the prank rose again. Amen.

The male urge to spontaneously learn about new subjects /s

kofe,

But why male models?

joyjoy, (edited )

It’s part of the meme. “The [gender] urge to [normal thing].” It’s satire.

Do I care about EVE Online? No, not at all. Did I watch a 5hr+ video about the history of EVE Online? Oh boy did I!

Sine_Fine_Belli,

Same here unironically

penquin,
@penquin@lemmy.kde.social avatar

Yeah, I couldn’t do that one. I did like 30 minutes and got tired of it. That’s like half a day of talking about the same thing.

SinningStromgald,

I’m a long form content junkie.

undeffeined,

Came here to mention that documentary. It was amazing and made me return to New Eden

Thteven,
@Thteven@lemmy.world avatar

That video is dope. Dude hadn’t posted on YouTube in 2 years and then drops a 6 hour video on EVE Online. We almost lost him to that fuckin game, lmao.

SinningStromgald,

He hadn’t posted because of how much work he and his team were putting into the EVE Online video. They wanted to do justice to the topic and I think they succeeded.

During that time he was still streaming on Twitch regularly so he didn’t just drop off the planet.

sebinspace, (edited )

As someone that played that game from 2014 to 2021…

Don’t play that game…

My character turns 10 next year, and I’m planning on doing a charity livestream where I spend all of my money on shitty fleets, getting blown up a lot, and when the ISK runs out, biomassing the character.

Feersummendjinn,

@ICastFist@programming.dev avatar

I want front row seats, I’ll download and login to the game to watch it live, maybe join you in biomassing my dude who’ll be barely hours old

sebinspace,

Fuck yeah. For charity I’m thinking an animal shelter or something else literally no one could be upset about.

Cornelius_Wangenheim, (edited )

I played with Goonswarm back during their rise to power in 2005-2010, probably the most interesting time period in the game.

I agree, avoid it like the plague and just read about it instead. The game itself is a boring grind and playing at the top level is basically a full time job.

muix,

Pretty funny that the currency is the same abbreviation as the currency of the country the devs are based in (Íslensk króna). I had no idea even though I walk past their headquarters every week.

TeaHands,
@TeaHands@lemmy.world avatar

This was low-key one of the most exciting moments when I actually visited Iceland. First thing we did was stop off at a cash machine and I was giggling like a child at the ISK. Also found a shop called Aurum (the name of the premium in-game currency) so clearly that’s an Icelandic word too although I could never figure out exactly what it means.

Take care of it, because you’re screwed if it gets infected.

Not doing anything much by themselves after that one.

TokenBoomer, in It's that time of year again.

Think of the number of people involved in the decisions to make this happen. It’s a Christmas miracle.

The car is a symbol of financial freedom, something I think a lot of people aspire to.

captain_oni,

People stuck in traffic for 2 hours everyday: “So much freedom!” Don’t get me wrong, I’m not against someone having nice things; but the fact that this guy made half of his identity having said things (and the other half being a sadistic, misogynistic monster) makes mocking him much funnier.

rtxn, (edited )

If anything, it is the bicycle. No taxes, no license, no expensive vendor-locked repairs, all features perpetually unlocked, basically all-terrain, runs on breakfast and determination.

baked_tea,

You just described the opposite of financial freedom though?

don,

They really didn’t though?

rtxn,

please explain

HikingVet,

So how is the expensive, needs specific maintenance at regularly scheduled intervals with specialised tools, and parts you can only get from one manufacturer financial freedom?

Valmond,

I have both a bike and financial freedom.

baked_tea: exploding-mind.gif

fauxerious,

Financial Freedom were the friends we made along the way

Gigan,
@Gigan@lemmy.world avatar

I agree, I commute by bike. But being able to buy a luxury car probably means you have a sizable disposable income and don’t have to worry about everyday expenses.

Smokeydope,
@Smokeydope@lemmy.world avatar

If that car was a old beat up converted out semi-liveable van then yes, actually. All an expensive luxury car is a symbol of is huge maintenance cost and a tiny dick

STRIKINGdebate2,
@STRIKINGdebate2@lemmy.world avatar

And why do you associate the car with freedom? Because marketing has made you associate cars with freedom. Its terrifying the amount of thoughts that are put in people’s head by advertising. Lots of those in marketing have psychology degrees.

Gigan,
@Gigan@lemmy.world avatar

I guess I wasn’t clear. A car in general is not freedom. But being able to afford a luxury vehicle like a Lamborghini probably means you have enough money to not worry about everyday expenses. That is something a lot of people want.

Personally, I hate cars. I bike as much as I can.

…. A good morning woody for the family

Sway_Chameleon,
@Sway_Chameleon@lemmy.world avatar

And families love the morning Woody. Why his arrival was the talk of the town! Heard all the people excitedly talking about taking their children to see Woody and take photos with Woody. Woody gets very excited by all the attention, and stays up right until Christmas!

Is he the one that got arrested for human trafficking.

FakinUpCountryDegen,

Yeah, it’s comically bad how false the allegations are, tho.

…despite this dude being a fuckwit, he didn’t do any human trafficking.

Dagwood222,

The funniest part of the story [for me.]

He posted on Twitter about his magnificent car collection, and Greta Thunberg posted back that he was a giant manchild [ or words to that effect] Offended, he got into a flame war. Meanwhile, there’s an NGO called GRETA, which works against trafficking. Someone tells Andy that he’s on GRETA’s radar. Incensed, he posts a video that gives clues to his location. The police use that video to find and arrest him.

If he’d acted like the powerful leader he aspires to be, he would have ignored the posts. Instead, he took the bait and got caught, just like a little fish

dangblingus,

The reality is, the police knew he was in Romania, and they knew that he owns property in Romania. When you fly into a country, the government knows. He was already under investigation and the arrest just coincidentally synchronized with the pizzabox photo.

fushuan,

Iirc they knew he was in Romania, but not where in Romania. The pizzabox photo let them call the store to ask the address of the delivery.

amio,

Greta Thunberg posted back that he was a giant manchild [ or words to that effect] Offended, he got into a flame war.

Quite unlike a giant manchild, of course. True aLpHa BeHaViOr!

Dagwood222,

It’s one of the lessons he teaches his students/acolytes; the person who speaks less in a meeting is the one in control. Too bad he couldn’t learn his own lesson.

frezik,

Wow, I had no idea I was in control so much. As opposed to being invited to meetings I don’t need to be on and have nothing useful to contribute to.

sebinspace,

You’re leaving out what the evidence was HE DOXXED HIMSELF WITH A PIZZA BOX YOU CANT MAKE THIS SHIT UP

n3m37h, in Revolutionary free thinker Andrew Tate

No, he is not. Just a sadistic man child

FlyingSquid,
@FlyingSquid@lemmy.world avatar

And a rapist. Let’s not leave that out. Ever.

dependencyinjection,

I keep seeing your username all over the place.

Just an observation.
