Wow, I've hardly been watching any YouTube lately. Just looked at my time watched for the last 7 days and it's only 2 hours and 24 minutes. 😆

Videos take too long to watch and I would rather read instead. 😁 :blobcatread:

@noellemitchell Mostly non-fiction, focusing on journalism. Although I also finished a batch of books on music too...

@Unatributed Journalism? That sounds intriguing.

When it comes to Trump in prison, the political issues far outweigh the physical concerns. He would have his Secret Service protection nearby, and keep in mind he's not Magneto. He probably couldn't even break out of one of those cardboard "prisons" that you see on .

@lauren Question: Here in the UK prisoners are not allowed phones (some get them smuggled in, though). Is the same true in the US?

lauren,
@lauren@mastodon.laurenweinstein.org avatar

@mikewoods They are not allowed their own phones. There is usually access to official (monitored, except under defined circumstances like discussions with lawyers) phones that are usually expensive to use, a point of major contention. And phones are smuggled in.

Just when I tought I was too old for node and web programming one of my work colleagues suggested me to take a couple of youtube courses by a guy called the net ninja.

I wish this quality content was available back in the old days when I first learned programming, I cannot recommend more.
I am devouring the content <3

Si vous utilisez Newpipe, pensez que vous pouvez copier un lien YouTube (par exemple depuis un toot) et le coller dans la zone de recherche de Newpipe. Vous avez alors accès à la vidéo directement dans Newpipe, sans passer par YouTube.
Yeah !

Vous pouvez tester en copiant ce lien et en le collant dans Newpipe (lien d'un événement sportif passé) :

streamers have literally discovered the media equivalent of :

An influencer reading other people’s semi-funny tweets on repeat. Hundreds and hundreds. Endlessly.

It keeps giving you little hits of dopamine over and over, keeps you hooked, wastes your time & doesn’t get you anywhere even if you feel something like a real feeling.

I call these ”brain rot”. My kid agreees, and keeps watching.

The race to the bottom of the brain stem is painful to watch sometimes. 🙁

@gimulnautti Could be worse, could be the "anti woke" grift. I think I rather watch someone reading tweets

📹Перше відео на 👇

19 років тому його опублікував співзасновник сервісу Джавед Карім на своєму каналі. На той момент відео «Я в зоопарку» втілювало оригінальну ідею YouTube — бути місцем для публікації шматків з життя, і не важливо, цікаві вони чи ні.

If you want to see a case study on parasocial relationships, check out the online sturm und drang about Watcher Entertainment leaving YouTube and starting their own subscription-based streaming service. Now, I've enjoyed their videos over the years, but not enough to subscribe, so I mentally wished them well and moved on. But holy hell, check out social media and you'll find it filled with rage over this perceived economic, ideological, and very personal betrayal.

Tim_Eagon,
@Tim_Eagon@dice.camp avatar

@artemis Also, since it's likely VOD, you can subscribe for a month and watch what you want and then subscribe again later. I already told my Watcher-loving daughter that I wasn't subscribing, but I would definitely entertain subscribing for a month or two when their shows we all like stream - like Puppet History.

And Watcher made an apology video and changed their business plans.

Just stumbled into the history of the song "Kisses Sweeter Than Wine", then researched deeper on and YouTube Music. It began as an old Irish ballad about ... a dead cow. I am absolutely blown away. History for the win.

@lauren I believe it’s generally called “A Taste of Honey” in modern times? Best version is by Julie London.

lauren,
@lauren@mastodon.laurenweinstein.org avatar

@timbray They are completely different songs. Whether or not Honey was in any way "inspired" by Kisses is an exercise left to the listener.

I just learned that Invidious can import all manner of data from , such as your channel subscriptions.

Go to Google Takeout and just export the subscriptions and then import into

Giving it a try -- takeout takes some time to export.

query about why a isn't deterministic.

OBSERVATION:

Download the same video multiple times using yt-dlp URL. The contents aren't the same even minutes apart. The SHA256 hashes don't match.

QUESTION

Why does this happen?

SPECULATION

  • yt-dlp doesn't strip out sponsors in a deterministic way

  • YouTube tweaks the bitrate on the fly despite requesting the highest quality

  • YouTube adds steganographic fingerprints to thwart downloaders via state violence

@toolbear

> QUESTION
> Why does this happen?

First, define your expectation. What, exactly, would you expect YouTube to respond to just one request at that URL?

I'm guessing you know better than to define it as "exactly the video data that was originally uploaded to YouTube".

But then, what data exactly do you expect to be served?

And, second: Do we expect that to be the same data served on multiple requests to the same URL? Why or why not?

Perso, je préfère me servir de en allant sur YouTube que de bidouiller un truc bancal. Passer par Newpipe, Individus ou jsais pas quoi, je trouve ça con. Faut changer de plateforme, pas faire semblant de s'en servir proprement.

Youtube and it war with its users continues. And they say it is all about protecting creators. Sounds fishy to me and probably painful.

@tilvids Not sure what "third-party" apps they're talking about because they mention API use and the only 3rd party apps I use don't make use of youtube's API... Piped: Unaffected, YTDLP: Unaffected, NewPipe: Unaffected, SmartTube: unaffected.

The only app i've noticed any recent change on was revanced, which is not a third party app, its a mod of their official first party app and the fix was just to patch a newer youtube version.

@kubikpixel Man könnte dort natürlich Eigenes veröffentlichen. Wäre aber just for fun. Geld kann man dort nicht generieren. Mal schauen, wie sich die Plattform entwickelt.
