Snowglobe of Doom posted:He was called Vac-Man, as King Vidiot mentioned. According to Wikipedia he was full of ground-up corn cobs. As someone who owned a Vac-Man and then shoved him in a closet which then became overrun by many families of mice, I can confirm that Vac-Man is full of ground-up corn cobs. When I was finally cleaning out my closet at about age 19, Vac-Man had been chewed to pieces and that dried corn poo poo was everywhere. And no, I had no idea what a horror show my closet was until I opened the door, which I never did because it was hard to get to in my tiny room.

Vac-Man sounds like a pretty lovely toy, it's great that he got to give birth to a rats of NIMH-like mini civilization of mice.

Choco1980 posted:This channel is amazing. The nursery rhyme stuff is one of the more recent internet phenomenons, especially the finger family versions. See all those millions of views, but few comments, and even fewer intelligible comments that you can make out and read? These videos are being automatically generated and watched so that whoever owns the videos can make a ton of money off of ad clicks and views. That doesn't mean people don't watch it, it means majority of views are structurally made by artificial intelligence. Rows of computers set up to watch it, refresh, then go to the next one. All for that sweet,sweet, advertisement and high viewcount purchased by view bots revenue. tl;dr ad fraud endgame.

I hear all that, but I still have to say, having a row of T-Rexes in different colored Spider-Man costumes singing "If you're happy and you know it clap your hands" and then fighting giant gorillas for no reason is worth the ad fraud.

I swear I'd never heard it in childhood but like last year or whatever there were so many versions on YouTube.

Aesop Poprock posted:Is that poo poo why youtube is banning people from making money from their viewcounts? No that has to do with the fact that YT is a google service and being a google service that is several years old it now is suffering from Google's love of rolling out major updates without telling anyone or doing any kind of beta testing whatsoever because "we're google and what other choice do they have". They have, without really telling anyone this, clearly rolled out a completely new set of content moderation bots in the past few months that are deciding that the best way to handle content is to mass flag anything that could possibly be objectionable or non-advertiser friendly and then force people to deal with it on a case by case basis and hope that the rear end in a top hat or weird fetish/nazi/white supremacist/bully channels don't bother with the appeals process and just quit altogether. Basically they are using the content monitoring system to trial-by-fire all their major big money channels and force them to enter the appeals process so they can cull all the people they don't like. It's a bad idea, they've been extremely deceptive about it, and it's starting to backfire on them. Because of how poor their filtering is, they've managed to de-monetize a bunch of videos by people who were making content that was legitimately helping people with depression and other mental issues and stuff designed to help people who were sexual assault victims. A lot of people think that they're doing it so they can force anyone who isn't making 100% ultra sanitized content that YT can use as it's "face" to have to make money using alternate revenue streams (IE Twitch and Patreon). This is a huge coup for YT because they've basically deep sixed all their competitors and claimed a virtual monopoly on video hosting where creators can make money. There really isn't another stable option for people to choose, so now they're forced to choose between "make revenue free videos on YT (which YT gets to still make money on BTW) and get money from Twitch subs or Patreon donations" and "Make content that contains no confrontational topics, serious issues, swearing or excessive violence, so that YT can expand it's advertiser base." The solution is very simple and has been suggested by many people: When you make a video you need to be able to select some meta-tags for your video (IE: Adult content/language, Serious issues, graphic violence, etc) basically a version of the MPAA or ESRB rating system, and then they need to use this to sell ads. There's actually a lot of advertisers who would be willing to buy ads for only adult content videos, people like rated R movies, alcoholic drinks, late night TV shows, etc and so it's pretty dumb to just cut those videos out of the revenue stream, they instead need to incorporate it in a way that lets advertisers target the demographics who like those kinds of videos. Jim Beam probably doesn't want to throw it's ads in front of Pewdiepie videos, but I can't imagine they would have an issue with someone like Jim Sterling . In fact in the US, if you used those tags to gate things by age, you could get around a lot of the advertising restrictions that surround things like smoking products and booze so it seems like pretty win-win scenario. I suspect something like that will be the end result and that this purge is most to get rid of people like Scarce and FAZE and the multitudes of channels that make money off of bullying kids and posting thousands of videos about drama and people's personal lives.

Almost all of them make sense from a phonetic standpoint if you think of a non-native speaker seeing a trailer or early interview without having subtitles available. They write the sound it out as best they can, then find a close-enough english word - even Dennis makes sense (menace), then the made up names like Upright Slug are simply fillers since the character names weren't mentioned in whatever sneak preview
