This is sort of a double post from the electronics thread, but thought people might not mind I've been learning electronics in earnest for the past year or so and started a cheat sheet with a bunch of youtube channels. I hate google, but you really can't beat youtube for this kind of stuff. I like it so much I actually subscribed to premium recently. With the family plan it's not such a bad deal. Anyway, here's a list I made, might be helpful if you're looking for something new. If I'm missing some great educational ones, let me know. also, If anyone you see on the list is a complete rear end in a top hat, let me know so I can unsubscribe and take them off the list Electronics CuriousMarc literally got me back into studying electronics https://www.youtube.com/c/CuriousMarc Electroboom is so entertaining... and if you keep up with what he says, I'm pretty sure he knows his stuff and/or you'll learn a lot. I know I did. https://www.youtube.com/c/Electroboom I have to put this here... not only are some of the vids really helpful to understanding the physics behind electricity, but some others are bat-poo poo insane like check this poo poo out: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9Tm2c6NJH4Y&t=85s https://www.youtube.com/user/EugeneKhutoryansky So good... maker of the breadboard 6502 thing https://www.youtube.com/c/BenEater Holy crap is this guy really good to learn from. https://www.youtube.com/user/w2aew Notes for each of his videos can be found here: https://www.qsl.net/w/w2aew/youtube/ unsubscribe from EEVBLOG, Dave's a racist shithead https://www.youtube.com/c/EevblogDave Big Clive rules... mostly teardowns and reverse engineering https://www.youtube.com/c/Bigclive Necroware: watch a guy bring old retro computer hardware back to life and design stuff to help do just that. https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCKU5nwSWYXa3xfXGBlKyvdw Epictronics: same as above, but does a lot more test and lab equipment https://www.youtube.com/c/Epictronics1 iz8dwf: Vintage electronics, amateur radio, etc. https://www.youtube.com/c/iz8dwf Andre Spiess: The guy with the swiss accent.

i enjoyed a lot of the videos from joey (the botany guy), he's pretty entertaining. haven't watched them in a while but maybe i'll go through a few recent ones. this one is neat, he's looking for Parasitaxus usta, which is a parasitic conifer. new caledonia has some cool stuff but that's definitely one of the strangest. he finds it at about 14:30 in the video. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5xU-lmKUkUc then there's this one, where he looks at some plants around the blighted industrial areas in oakland, and then goes by the homeless camp where he talks about how the cops are harassing the homeless folks who can't afford rent because of all the gentrification. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=35qF2hEefXg

I cannot listen to the EEVBlog guy. His voice is super irritating and his videos are 3x longer than they need to be because he can't stop waffling. Some of the teardowns are interesting if they're old gear, but often it's modern five-figure test equipment so the video is just him pointing at black rectangular ASICs for 30 minutes. He's also kind of racist, and is REALLY into bitcoins despite claiming to be an environmentalist. He gives me the vibe of that annoying kind of nerd who thinks being really knowledgeable about one subject automatically makes him an expert in every less complicated (as judged by him) subject.

I unfollowed EEVBlog Dave a long time ago, because of the things you mentioned. He has interesting content but waffles on and on and on, and also he's a chud. Otherwise, thank you very much for posting your list namlosh, I can see we share a lot of subscriptions in common so the ones I don't know yet are most welcome and I'll definitely be checking them out!

To elaborate a bit... I don't think he's gone full chud. Most of what I've seen has been the kind of standard anti-Chinese stuff that's common in Australia, coupled with the usual techie view that everything Chinese must be poor quality fake poo poo (he constantly refers to Chinese products as "Wun Hung Lo" branded like it's hilarious, even though he's been making that exact same poo poo joke since his channel started). I recall him saying some things that raised my eyebrows in his podcast too, but I stopped listening to it years ago and don't remember the details. He's definitely made some really ignorant comments about things like brexit, and doubles down when anyone pushes back, but I'd put that down to the other problem I mentioned where he believes he's an expert on everything. Tbh he's probably more your standard libertarian-leaning techie know-it-all who has an opinion on everything and has said dumb things about subjects he doesn't understand.

the ones that i watch regularly that i am pretty positive are not nazis are electroboom, bigclive, thisoldtony, and uri tuchmann. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MrnCDKB1hE0 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hvOTiQKkQMo https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q-XOM4E4RZQ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ecp_NDDNIVA I don't think that clickspring or my mechanics are chuds, but nothing they have said indicates one way or the other. they both focus entirely on the tools and techniques, so their personal attitudes don't enter into it. please don't let my mechanics be a chud because his channel is probably my favorite on all of youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SOw9WqMOHjA https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U2jNeObHnZY the smarter every day guy i don't think quite hits the chud line, but he is seriously christian and a big military booster. getting close. i don't watch his stuff. nilered is probably not a chud but is likely to be a credulous tech shithead. wouldn't be surprised if he gets into bitcoins and such. i don't watch his stuff either. (i prefer extractions & ire) it is known that EEVblog dave and AvE are both chuds, a hundred percent of the way. Sagebrush fucked around with this message at 03:20 on Oct 31, 2022 |

It's okay to watch youtubes you like, not everything has to be subjected to an ideological purity test imo. I think most youtubers are smart enough to leave their political views out of their videos. but when it comes to channels like EEVBlog, AvE, and (ugh) Zip Ties & Bias Plies (in order of chuddiness) when they start actively propagandizing their politics it stops being a fun youtube video about technology or antics and it starts getting actively disgusting then yeah, I'm out. A couple other channels come to mind like South Main Auto (Eric O.) and Pine Hollow Auto Diagnostics (Ivan). Their content is excellent and you can learn a lot about car diagnostics. Both of them, and Eric O especially, seem like good honest dudes that wouldn't do anyone wrong. But they're both conservative. Are they on the "nazi" list? Idk I haven't checked. But they generally keep their politics out of their videos so I keep watching.

I suppose "chud" has a pretty specific meaning to me - the sort of trumpy, far-right, truth-denying kind of person - rather than the pervasive casual racism you get from people like dave Sweevo fucked around with this message at 13:44 on Oct 31, 2022 |

I don't think anyone's arguing that it's not okay to watch youtubers you like, but people are always going to be questioning you and your motives if you watch chud-lites or chuds. Questioning viewing habits isn't a bad thing either, there's no reason that the background input we subject our noggins to shouldn't be subject to criticism.

Destin said on camera in one of his videos, it was like an aside thing or something, but that he liked what some super chud southern governor was doing. I don't know when it was filmed, but it was about the same time anti-trans bills were real popular in that part of the country.

At some point after leaving Motion he bought an RV and a car and an expansion of his home shop, then a new barn, and.... it was just about him and getting new shop equipment for work he didn't actually do anymore. For the sellout, he was doing "product tests" and other poo poo, like all the sudden all his chemical poo poo was from CRC and whatever. I don't want to hate on him for all this - he continues to increase in subscriber numbers so obviously a bunch of people like it, but it's not for me anymore.
