I'll allow it, but only if we can somehow put the same flashing red banner on top of politicians in real life.

I know this is sort of still doable with aliexpress kits, but I miss the days of being able to make "weird" builds. My first build was an Athlon XP-M 2500+. It was a mobile chip that was just a binned desktop chip. It used the same socket as desktop, had no IHS, and ran at a "lower voltage" thanks to the binning. Overclockers DREAM in back in like 2005.

There's a reason they call it the tragedy of the commons.

Remember when search summaries were just extracts from the top result instead of LLM hallucinations? Pepperidge Farm remembers.

Huh, I've been watching them since like 2016 or so and I seem to remember him hosting more frequently back in the day. Seems like now he does most of the main channel videos while everyone else handles Short Circuit and the like. My personal theory is that Linus is grooming Elijah to be his replacement. But we'll see.

He's also put a lot of work into creating a team of hosts that are genuinely wonderful to watch. Riley, Jake, Sarah, James, and Elijah to name a few. Best thing he could do for his brand is step out of the limelight, focus on being "chief vision officer" and let his wonderful talent fully take over hosting.

Case in point - see the Firefly bluray transfer. I think they took the format name literally because the black levels in some scenes got raised to the point that there's just this blue haze in parts of the scene.

"Everything is on fire! What do we even pay you people for!"

Whoever is fixing your computer absolutely despises you if you're a smoker. Tar gets everywhere.

A copyright strike is a little bit more serious than a content id match, fwiw.
