  • The Bread Circus
    • They go through the Star Wars movies from a book lore perspective, point out flaws in the writing and lore-breaking, and offer suggestions on how the sequels could have been handled differently. They did The Last Jedi, and I really enjoyed it. They also have some cool videos on podracing, ships, and guns.
  • Defunctland
    • History of Disney rides, takes the culture of the time into consideration, the video on queues is a must-watch, imo.
  • Draw Like a Sir
    • Really solid drawing tutorials that aren’t very complicated, takes the time to break down high-level concepts into simple exercises. Overall a really fun channel to watch, even if you’re not into drawing.
  • Fredrik Knudson
    • Long, deep-dive videos into internet history/culture. Rare uploads, but a banger every time.
  • James Lee
    • Newgrounds-era animator with amazing compositing techniques and a very unique animation style where he inserts himself into his videos as a very animated caricature of himself.
  • Lemmino
    • Like the History Channel but without the fluff. Cool topics, very nice animations, high production, high-quality content.
  • MattKC
    • Known for a Lego Island decompilation project. Also does retro console repair from time to time — very fun watch.
  • Paper Will
    • Rare uploads. but interesting video essay topics. High quality and a nice watch during lunch.
  • Pecos Hank
    • A storm chaser who is Reed Timmer’s ying to his yang. Very chill, documentary-quality footage featuring himself playing guitar and talking about the beauty and power of nature. You’ve probably seen his footage on the Weather Channel!
  • Technology Connections
    • Great deep dives into random technology, old and new. The video on the popcorn button on microwaves is really good (I think that may be on his second channel?)

Google is an ad company first, and as long as that gravy train is flowing they’ll be fine. Their dominance as a search engine is just to maintain their monopoly on internet ads, not give customers a good searching experience, hence why sponsored links are the first thing to appear and count as a view in their analytics

They will eventually, they just won’t be as brazen about it

If you throw away the trash can from your house, you still have to put the garbage somewhere. If a program is outputting errors or logs, it still needs to put them somewhere, so no more /dev/null means no more default trashcan for the system to send its trash, as far as I understand it

I managed to bork my first Linux mint install by not paying attention to my permissions I was setting for a usb drive and basically locked myself out of the system and prevented it from booting into the desktop environment. Lesson learned, don’t copy/paste commands from StackOverflow and run them without thinking about what you’re trying to do

Because Plex has that feature built-in with little hassle and Jellyfin does not (for now)

It should have its own native app, it does for FireTV and Samsung iirc

What VPN do you use and why?

If you are a pirate VPN is an essential tool. I am trying to ascertain the popularity of various VPNs in piracy community. In this excerise, I will list several Popular VPNs in the comment if you use one of them just upvote that comment and reply the reason. If you don’t find your VPN listed add a comment with just their name....

I did this and found it worked way better in terms of stability. Bonus is that Mullvad has a proper Linux client whereas Proton’s is just a cobbled-together mess that’s not worth using and is no where close to feature parity with the Windows client

What a dick move, especially the second one. Really goes to show that management seems to forget they’re dealing with actual humans and not machines being turned off at an assembly line. So dehumanizing.

Every fifth step I take in a sidewalk must have the sidewalk crack be perfectly positioned in the middle of my foot, then five steps later the other foot gets to step on the crack. Feels very satisfying but it does cause my gait to be a bit off at times lol

Working out is about discipline, not pleasure imo. I’m sure there are some folks who really enjoy working out, but for most of the general public, it’s about sticking to a routine and seeing yourself improve, regardless of how it makes you feel
