John Richardson on loading the dishwasher, and other arguments with his wife.

Probably almost got me divorced numerous times, especially the days immediately following it's discovery.

The one where Pewd talks about Linux/Ssh and encourages you to ditch google.

I’m not even a fan by any stretch but famous YouTubers like this educating the masses is great.

[–] claim_arguably@lemdro.id 2 points 19 hours ago

I really liked that video too.

This documentary about the Japanese Holocaust on the Chinese. It got demonetized because of the details and unfortunately TIFO has stepped back somewhat from their long form documentaries partly because of it.

And when you’re done crying to that, here’s something a little more light hearted from Jim McKenzie that went under the radar.

I've truly went in on ARIatHome, a talented musician just randomly running into people in new york and getting them on the mic, looping them in. Lots of great freestyles that come up. He does full livestreams too, on his page.

Examples:

I just found Fulton Lee who's got a playful energy version of something similar.

Both of these guys have upped my faith in humanity.

This channel is like a motherload of good vibes among all the negativity online. We need more people like him.

Wait, this is the W&W? Their official channel? Amazing.

[–] datavoid@sh.itjust.works 2 points 18 hours ago

First time seeing the video for this, amazing

He should get points for confidence. "RIGHT THEEEIA"

Something to note is that when the child is asked the rules of the shape game, he is able to correctly identify where the trucks and flowers go. And then he confidently proceeds to sort the cards as if he was still playing the color game. This is typical performance for a 3-year-old, including the part where he gets bored and tries to leave

The commercial for Trump from South Park comes to mind

Or this: https://youtu.be/wYrNjPGgAAA

If you discount the clickbait title and thumbnail, it's a very interesting and entertaining video. I would describe the video as a fictional, historical documentary.

Not sure its the best as I don't recall most videos I watch, but this one was really unexpectedly kind and heartwarming and I go back to it sometimes. i crossed north america using only public transit

Recently came across this channel while learning about fluid simulations, and this video is fantastic.

Took me much longer than 10 minutes to understand the concepts, though. I later discovered Matthias is a lead physics researcher at nvidia which is pretty dope :)

[–] claim_arguably@lemdro.id 2 points 19 hours ago

Great channel. Thanks

It's been a long year, so I may edit to add something else if I think about it, but this Reggie video still has me chuckle thinking about some of the lines from it.

I gotta give a shout out to part 2 of the cat song.
