I saw a meme where it was “big brain” to use it for their IDE/notepad so I tried it out and my god it’s not even funny how legible and easy on the eye it is.

Doctor House would be top right but partly because you wouldn’t need to run very far.

again?!

I disagree with the implication that users should “settle down” when faced with user-unfriendly experiences.

User silence is often taken as permission to continue shitty practices that build up overtime. Bloated games that are unoptimized, online subscription to play online, not even fully owning the games, not able to use your own bluetooth headset etc.

This tweet just perpetuates how consumer-hostile nature of these companies. It attempts to play down a potential revenue stream at the expense of UX, subtle gaslight users into thinking this is part of the “over-reactionary culture” when this a perfectly valid criticism, and makes no attempt to be sympathetic about these implications.

Honestly, this has made me swore off a PS5 and future sony consoles. It’s no longer affordable, convenient, or simply. I do love my DS4 controller tho.

Personally a fan of the TF2 and TF|2 distinction.

@ 5:22 Most in the community will know it refers to the title card and it’s simply breathtaking in everyone’s first playthrough

Including it would eliminate ALL doubt that this is a baitpost.

From what I’ve read, it’s those who are “#teampixel” which he doesn’t seem to be no longer part of the program.

Give his recent video a watch and decide whether he’s caved or not - i don’t think it’s as plain as mkbhf

they made two posts complaining about essentially meme quality assurance - wish I had that much time.

TIL - ty!

Cerberus is singularly the goodest boi in the world. He’s three good boys in one - you can’t beat that. Any single boi you name is logically outnumbered by the sheer concentration of good boi in one being.

What’s that phenomenon where as a child you were told a “fact”, internalised it, and lived your life presuming it was true until someone points out how obviously wildly untrue it was that you momentarily question reality?

Because I was today’s years old when I realised how ridiculous cutting complete blood flow would be. Thank you (genuinely!)

Funnily, the animal was named after the greek mythological figure of the same name. Wife of Typhon and considered the mother of monsters - including Cerberus.

It’s sad to see parents one up the children instead of elevate them

I just presumed you turn on “shower thoughts” mode after you’ve done a thorough clean.

Though this is similar to what some Japanese households do where they do a thorough wash and shower, removing any dirt and sweat, and soak in a bathtub to relax afterwards.

Great thread - might make my icons a little smaller but I have a big phone (for my hand) so I tried to balance minimalist with color-immediacy

Formally, this is an example of positive punishment where the addition of a stimulus decreases the likelihood of the target behavior occuring again.

Negative reinforcement refers to subtracting/removing a stimulus to increase the likelihood of a target behavior (think reducing a prison sentence for good behavior).

Great Parks and Rec episode

I do appreciate creators who do their own content despite being keenly aware of the algorithm.

Infrequent long-form content creators to check out:

Tom O’Regan: British(?) topical/interest reviews, personal recommendations include his Obra Dinn video, Sickest Chess Match, and The Biggest Mistake In Music History

B-Mask: I support him on Patreon so pardon the bias but he likes to take his time creating in-depth and clear retrospectives on topics he’s interested in, managing to get you interested in The Fantastic Four, Jems, and 2000s video game trilogies. Not long form for the sake of $$$ but insightful analysis of the history, themes, and personal deconstruction of such topics.

Also check out Moth Light Media for evolutionary biology, and Lines in Motion for manga and art analysis.

More frequent but short form (under 4 minutes) creators to check out are few and wide, 5sf are back-ish but carrying the torch are:

CrackerMilk are a bunch of good aussie lads making short sketches for quick laughs, with excellent timing and shooting.

Valueselect is a personal fave where he was doing sketches a year or two ago but is experimenting with yt shorts quite well. The majority of his comedy surrealist/fantasy/80’s styling music are absolute hits.

Hope these are good starting points, I found these guys from browsing similar threads.

Acollierastro Physicist and academic breaks down varying topics in casual and fun long-form format. string theory lied to us and now science communication is hard

Value Select Multi-talented (really) independent content creator, who flavours his borderline surrealist humour with 80’s stylings and DnD/medieval vocabulary and theatrics. Pushes for good vibes while keenly aware of the grind “Embrace the mirth”.

He’s always experimenting and pushing his production to unbelievably comedic quality, so I discovered him when he was doing musical skits such as Tell me your name again (again) Hit Me With Your Car 2020

Right now he’s been on fire with his youtube shorts. Not everyone’s thing and if you wanna take a glance, personal favourites include:

• Anything Is Possible
• It’s a Man’s World
• Simulacrush (Lady On The Cake)

I’d be surprised if the data was just content. Memes and texts aren’t particularly valuable.

However, data that can be used for tracking/developing user profiles such as what they’re subscribed to, how active they are, and how they all link to one another is especially useful for conpetetitors and marketers. Plus any personal data such as emails and profiles. I wouldn’t be surprised if you managed to get a huge amount of data under 80gb if it’s just text (think how big a 80gb excel sheet would be)
