I've decided that I'm going to take at least six weeks off from doing YouTube work. My voice is the primary factor on why I'm taking a hiatus...plus I've been super depressed lately.
If you wanna check out my backlog of indie game videos, please check out my small YouTube channel. Every view, comment, like, and sub helps me a long way.
I now have over 10,000 videos on my primary Favorites playlists on #YouTube. When you exceed 5000 videos on a playlist, YouTube unhelpfully just says "Something went wrong." At which point a few minutes ago I created 0-Favorites 3 (many of you will already know why I have the "0-" on there). If you think 10,000 videos is a lot, keep in mind those are just my main Favorites. My YouTube History of all videos watched is, uh, somewhat longer. Yeah.
There's a creator on #YouTube whose content is really top notch in a niche hobby/avocation that is highly technical. Unfortunately, he smacks his lips and makes swallowing noises about every 30 seconds. I am not sure if I should mention it in a comment. I like his content, but I can't get through a video without getting squicked by the mouth noises. He needs a tutorial from someone who knows how to edit that out.
So... In the hospital, this morning I had a "gastrointestinal event" right before my shift at work, with having two hernia operations prior, I'm not screwing around (things like incarceration, or just finding out if it is a recursion asap.)
Anyhow, I can't comment on any #YouTube videos on the hospital wifi.
For the first time today I added an "altered content" liable to my Youtube video because I used two photos that were generated by AI.
It is a new policy by #YouTube. I've read the guidelines & examples.
Since I'm very interested in #ContentModeration want to now what it means for political speech on YouTube this election?

This tiny PC is now packing the most powerful laptop chip AMD makes!
Funnily enough, Microsoft threw AMD and Intel under the bus.
NONE of the current selling "AI" PCs qualify for the "CoPilot" branding.
Who knows, maybe you don't want that new Microsoft Recall feature on your system anyway?
I never really formally posted a "coming out" post but I guess to keep people on the same page:
SirTapTap -> SerTapTap (gender neutral)
Any Pronouns -> She/Her
Cis -> Trans
? -> Genderfluid
I've been making little changes for a month or so now, still lots of text to fix.
I'll probably be commissioning a girlier TapTap and some rebranding here and there:
Let me know if you have any #twitch#youtube#discord#vtuber emoji/branding etc tips. No idea what I'm doing
Trafilem na nowy fotograficzny "hit" na #Youtube (negatywny)
Juz sie przyzwyczailem, ze fotografowie wpychaja w takie filmy reklamy swoich kursow, ksiazek itp., ale wlasnie znalazlem film, w ktorym takie reklamy sa... juz chyba 4, a jeszcze nie obejrzalem calego (16min35sec) 🤦♂️
I didn't think of this earlier but a comment mentioned you could also move the .cache or at least the .cache/kwin/qmlcache into a tmpfs, I have not extensively tested this so I can't say if there are any unintended side effects
So, I haven't watched #YouTube for a month, and I don't feel anything was missing. I only listened to two videos while walking.
Now I've finally suspended #RSS updates for most YouTube channels. Doing this for each feed (as Tiny Tiny RSS requires) did put things into perspective...
I've spent so much time in some of these channels. Dozens if not hundreds of hours. And it took some effort to accept letting go, even though effectively, I've already done it.
I did leave two channels alive: one channel that served as a source for ~95% of YouTube links in my zettelkasten, and #systemcrafters, of course.
"A billionaire got mad, bought your favourite social media site and ran it into the ground. A different billionaire got mad, bought the magazine site you liked to read on your lunchbreak and shut it down completely. "
I started a new Youtube channel a few months back to kind of help me come to terms with my late autism diagnosis, and I seem to be doing better on views than my (8 years old) Clay Disarray channel :ablobdizzy:
Anyhoo, thought I'd post a link here if you're interested 🧡
#YouTube has blocked at least three videos that show viewers how to evade military service after it received a request from the Russian authorities, the investigative news outlet Agentstvo reported Monday.
Removing content related to human rights at the request of the Russian government and not because it violates Google’s content policies marks a “new trend,” Agentstvo said, citing an unnamed cybersecurity expert.
This is fun!
Because I have my History turned off on the #Youtube app they are refusing to show me an Algorithmically generated feed.
I'm not sure they understand how many people see this as an absolute win!! #Google
