  wow #Kurzgesagt made a new channel! Seems to be about cool, overlooked stories from history. It brings with it their usual thorough research, excellent writing, charismatic voice-over work and a new and different art style from what we are used to from them that looks so lovely! Best of all - no AI slop! despite them being recently erroneously flagged (and since exonerated). Here's the story I caught tonight "The most powerful pirate in history". So cool! https://www.youtube.c...

  80s computers rocked hard. Also explains why they are all yellowed :)

  So Hank Green has been outed for overusing AI in his work. Okay that sucks, whatever. He's taken responsibility for it and vowed to do better. I feel he's sincere in this. Unfortunately, now every useless youtuber is going to slag his name despite them never having made (or ever will make) any useful educational content, which Hank Green is known for. Tiresome.

  I dislike the modern youtube practice of putting a clip of the most exciting part of the video at the front before the introduction. What's the point in watching the video then?

  Still enjoying "The Lost Era" Star Trek novels. I'm always tickled by characters I had forgotten about making an appearance, even as side or incidental characters. This time it was Alidar Jarok, known as "Admiral Jarok" in the TNG season 3 episode "The Defector". The book takes place several years before the D is launched, so he is still a prominent war hero on Romulus, but the dialogue shows the seeds of his doubts. Really cool! Played by James Sloyan, Jarok...

  Once again Rick Beato blows us away with another amazing interview - this time with DOMi and JD Beck. Some of the quirkiest fusion I've ever heard. I loved their last album and now they have another coming in two days! #jazz #fusion #RickBeato https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bGLFJ685Ins

  to anyone who uses iOS with a self-hosted calDAV/cardDAV server (like nextcloud) an important gotya: You need to set your certificates' lifetimes to be <397 days, or apple shits the bed and refuses to admit it's signed. The reminders app just failed to work. No error, nothing. Took me two hours to find out why. I thought I was being clever by setting long expiry times, since it's all just on my LAN anyway, and I hate messing with openssl.

  Well that only took a dozen years. I had almost written this off as a failure. #Axanar https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xFpTiIHNTJ0

  The entitlement of some recent #Linux adopters is really staggering. They still don't understand neither Linux nor "the community" owe them a damn thing. With freedom comes responsibility.

  If you run a cooking youtube channel, please hold your knife properly if you'd like to convince your audience you know what the hell you are doing.

  I just saw a youtube video float by about a couple that purchased a cabin on a cruise ship. To live. Permanently. Um. that's all fun an games until ebola comes on board. If there's one thing I've learned about cruise ships in the last six years - they are excellent incubators for disease.

  Excellent drumming, but Nic isn't playing the crazy flurry of ghost notes on the snare that Phil did. Granted, his father is an extremely tough act to follow. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eYl6jA2b2n8

  So, as usual, I'm late to the party. I had no idea that Star Trek: Renegades was made 11 years ago. So getting over my usual trepidation of indie/fan Star Trek productions, I had a go. Star Trek: Renegades was actually better than it had any right to be. While rough around the edges it was a worthy watch and fun and exciting. which was then followed by: Star Trek Renegades: The Requiem was one of the most disappointing follow-ups ever. Nice try but, no. Also, Paramount is a fuck. I'...

  the Music App (formerly known as itunes when it actually worked) is truly a horrific piece of garbage. Anyone who's worked on this ought to feel ashamed, and carry the dishonour for three generations. It was perfect for 25 years... then you broke what didn't need to be fixed. You suck, #Apple.

  all I wanted to do is listen to one song I own on my iphone, but no Tim Cook has to be a piece of shit and deny me to listen to a song I OWN on a phone I OWN. Fuck you, Tim Cook. I hope you die of extremely painful cancer, and your entire bloodline dies out becuase you're worthless.
