Terrible Opinions posted:He criticizes it in shows he already actively dislikes and ones where plausible deniability has been stripped away. This is the same for Super Eyepatch Wolf. They still don't both for any of the shows they like where the author isn't publicly pro-pedophilia. They have both recommended plenty of creepy pedo anime without a single peep of warning in other occasions. Like if you're willing to look past that on both of them that's your call, but don't pretend they're somehow safe. I mean, by the sound of it, there are literally no safe anituber reviewers, so I guess I'm willing to take the lesser of whatever evils are out there.

My youtube feed right now is 90% musically/tik tok cringe videos. You watch one thing and it infects your entire feed. I just clicked TLJ trailer to check a date so I'm pretty sure I'll start seeing TLJ IS SJWFEMANAZI GARBAGE vids soon.

OK since people don't seem to know this, I am going to tell you how you can clean your recs up a bit without just deleting your entire watch history. There's two things you can do: First option, go to History, find the offending video, and hover over the title. A little X will appear. Click it, and Youtube will forget you ever watched that poo poo.  Second option, on the Recommended page, hover over the title to any videos you don't want, and click the menu dots that appear.  Click "Not Interested." This will get that poo poo off your recs. You have the option of clicking "TELL US WHY," which gives you some extra options.   Also for just chuddy types, you can use HBomberguy's Censorship Addon (at least on Chrome, IDK if it's available for anything else) and almost never see them.

Couple of things: 1) S Club Party is such a catchy song that I can't dislike it. 2) The Joe Rogan episode with Jake The Snake was fantastic. The man has so many great stories and I think Rogan is gaining a bit of an appreciation for wrestlers after already having DDP on (And say what you want about that carny, but the dude is doing a lot of good).

Augus posted:I am fully convinced that Youtube’s “Stop recommending this poo poo” button is just a placebo and doesn’t actually change what it recommends to you I think the problem is there are so many tags and poo poo that it can’t completely get rid of them. Especially since there are so many channels that produce the same poo poo. A better system would be nice but YouTube is lazy as gently caress.

And there's the mega channels or the channels owned by businesses or interest groups that throw millions of dollars at YouTube to get their videos recommended to everybody. These are usually shilling for ad revenue or are provided by crazy right wing fuckers.

Often I end up using it as a way to soft-subscribe to certain channels.

Kim Justice posted:Anti-anime bias confirmed once again Scrubbing through this video, I flashed-back to when I watched Epic Meal Time's Fast Food Lasaga video six years ago. I thought that was appalling at the time, but compared to this, the Epic Meal Time video not only had more effort (and possibly money) put into it, but they actually ate the food. And before you say, "you clicked on the Epic Meal Time video", the reason I saw it then was because a co-worker showed it to me.

The AVGN's only goes wafer-thin into the history of the Commodore/Amiga (and that's OK, different type of show after all) but the CD32 was not the reason for the downfall of Commodore. And there were plenty of good games for it, it's just that they were all A1200 games put on a CD.

If you have a camera already, then there is no financial loss in doing it. If you get even one cent of ad money, you made some money.Of course, the loss you do have may not be financial

Yeah, and by that point most major game studios had given up on the Amiga as a platform so a lot of the releases he reviewed in that video were there kind of stuff that would have been forgettable shareware on the PC. Not that that should excuse them from being criticized as commercial releases (since they were) but I can't help but feel a bit odd seeing that type of software getting the full Nerd treatment.

Lindsey has been re-uploading her Nostalgia Chick videos due to fan demand and recently the Smurfette Principle popped up which I think is important to acknowledge as AFAIK it's the first one where she begins to pivot towards 'proper' textual analogy: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lTo8-gRHHLA It also inspired an early FemFreq video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=opM3T2__lZA So: These videos are nostalgic now. Huh.

On to another topic, who here's a fan of FF XIV? Well, Rock Paper Shotgun put out an article the other day where one of the writers attended the Las Vegas convention, and it's not gone over well. One of the points of contention: quote:New suburbs full of houses have since soothed demand, and there are other measures to help keep the housing market healthy. If you don’t log in for 30 days, for example, your home will be repossessed. However, it remains a problem, say these players. https://twitter.com/jes8965/status/1065448534089113600 https://twitter.com/ShinGokaiRed/status/1065477026335752192 Apparently, it was bad enough to get his press pass revoked.
