The video is by Benn Jordan, I wholeheartedly recommend this video and entire channel. Guy is a world treasure.
- Comment on Our Channel Could Be Deleted - Gamers Nexus 1 week ago:
No, just be honest. "Bloomberg fradulent copyright strike on our black market documentary".
Still one sentence.
I use a Firefox extension called Dearrow because of this understandable, but unfortunate trend.
- Comment on Our Channel Could Be Deleted - Gamers Nexus 1 week ago:
Totally agree. This is corpo, government doing stuff because they can, disregarding law they would have you uphold because you're beneath them.
Corruption. Plain and simple.
- Comment on Our Channel Could Be Deleted - Gamers Nexus 1 week ago:
Title is clickbait, because a sentence like that without context is alarmist.
It's not wrong, it's mentioned and explained in the video, byt it's still clickbait.
The story here is Bloomberg fuckery and the copyright strike, not the imminent channel deletion.

That's even worse!
- Comment on In SpongeBob, Sandy Cheeks is way more closely related to Pearl and the fish than she is to anyone else in the main cast 2 weeks ago:
We're basically fish, we just carry our own salty water around in skinsacks.
Also, all naturally occuring ice is basically rocks, and obviously molten rocks are lava, so we're carrying lava in our bodies, which makes us lava monsters.
Also also, your (and mine) digestive system is just a tube of outside inside our bodies, so we are torus-shaped fish lava monsters.
You're welcome.
- Comment on If there's a sort of "apocalyptic" event but there are still surviving communities, will people be able to make eyeglasses again, or are people with vision issues gonna be fucked? 2 weeks ago:
But I'll thrive with my untreated ADHD (unlikely)!

I feel like like I get denser everyday no matter I do.
- Comment on LOL GitHub [2018] 2 weeks ago:
One is owned by Microsoft, the other is still effectively independent. Idk if I'd call it not much different.
- Comment on LOL GitHub [2018] 2 weeks ago:
I hope I wont get brigaded, but of hosted options I like Gitlab. They are fairly transparent as a company, and I've used their community edition for work and private projects for nearly a decade.
Not just hosting, I like their CI/CD and devops features too.

No. But going after LLMs wont make the situation for IA any worse, not directly anyway.
- Comment on AI industry horrified to face largest copyright class action ever certified 3 weeks ago:
IA doesn't make any money off the content. Not that LLM companies do, but that's what they'd want.
- Comment on HELP: Wireguard for home network with remote exit node 3 weeks ago:
You can set this up with your router connecting to the remote server and routing your client traffic through there instead of the gateway your router is using for WAN.
Specifics are router... Specific.
You can do the same with a vm in your network acting as a router or proxy as well, pick your poison.
- Comment on Deploying Nextcloud on AWS ECS with Pulumi 3 weeks ago:
All comments about overkill are amusing. You do you. Did you learn stuff?
Maybe you can replace some of those tools with less expensive analogs, how's the cost anyway?
- Comment on Matrix to XMPP migration 1 month ago:
I'm looking at tuwunel to setup instead of synapse as soon as it's ready. Still matrix, but maybe better for small instances.
