Goddamn that was poetic, ya cunt.

All those folks in the 50+ age group that grew up with "Russia is enemy #1" are probably cycling through waves of intense work and prolonged orgasm.

I wouldn't be surprised if one of the first things considered in strategizing any armed conflict is whether they want Russia and China to know that we have X or are capable of Y. Russia has shown their hand. If they could do more, they would have by now.

It has also taught NATO that Russia is still in the barbaric tactics mindset. Hospitals, schools, churches, shipping centers - they're all valid targets. If Russia wants a position, they'll level the entire town. That certainly changes the plans, of anyone thought they would abode by the Geneva Conventions.

Eh, this seems a little half-assed, IMO. There's no adjustment for error magnitude in relation to the rest of the video content. If they fuck up a basic stat on an informational video, it can easily have a more significant effect of viewers than a major error on a niche topic in a long, multi-topic video.

This works into the whole prioritization portion of the post. Many of the things they classify as "low severity" and only warranting a pinned comment could lead to completely different behavior. Example:

1. Very Low Severity

• The statement could possibly be misunderstood, but it’s generally true and most people would be fine with how it’s currently presented.
• eg. The host says, “One of DisplayPort’s main advantages over HDMI is its higher bandwidth,” but this is only true when comparing certain generations of the standards. HDMI 2.1, for example, has much higher bandwidth than DP 1.1.

If the whole video is on the differences between HDMI and DP, this statement is completely opposite of the truth on a basic, primary statistic. The connector's ONLY purpose is to transfer data, which is rate and bandwidth. The erroneous statement is an absolute - something IS something. All LTT needs to do is add, "some versions" or "generally". THEN it becomes a softer interpretation error.

• DP's bandwidth is GENERALLY higher than HDMI's? Let me look up when this statement doesn't hold true...
• DP bandwidth IS HIGHER than HDMI? Guess I don't need to look up that info because they're presenting it as a universal truth.

Purchasing decision time... That GPU has 3x HDMI and 1x DP ports? Well, I'm not sure about these other stats, but I know that HDMI sucks compared to DP, so I can eliminate all the GPUs with more HDMI ports than DP ports. I guess I'm getting this 5 year old GPU with 1xHDMI and 3x DP ports instead.

If that mistake was in a 30 minute news video covering 8 stories and the statement was an aside, okay, maybe a pinned comment.

In reality, all these errors should be easy to correct, but that's hampered by YouTube's tools. LTT should be able to replace a small segment of video with a cut away to stock or b-roll and a voiceover with the correct information. But, you can't do that on YT.

Another alternative, if the information is insignificant enough for only a pinned comment, is to simply mute that 2-3 seconds of video. If the misstatement was significant enough that muting it makes the rest of the video tough to follow, then the mistake wasn't small enough for a pin.

It's like a watermelon on a toothpick. I bet he was going home to cry on his oversized pillow.

Ugh, you just had to say "anti-vax" for most people to know he's a certified stooge or a turbo-dumbfuck.

I think it's hard to go wrong with Murakami. I don't remember much TEV specifically, but I remember enjoying it.

Thanks.That's kinda what I thought, but assumed I was missing something with the amount of attention the transfer of this one weapon platform has received. I guess it's also symbolic of the level of commitment by NATO, since it's not just a few planes, but also ammo plus training plus support framework.

I'm glad we're not just throwing ammo at the situation and wishing Ukraine the best of luck, though I do wish we were doing more.

One thing I've missed in the discussion of sending F-16s is the role they'll play.

From what I've seen, Russia still has significant air defense capabilities, and they launch air fired weapons from deep in their own territory. So, if the F-16s can't get too far upfield, due to defenses, and there isn't much they can do in air-to-air combat, what advantage do they have over longer range artillery?

I see nothing fnord unusual about it.

Oh, here we are - another day and ANOTHER Reddit vs Fediverse meme! I'm soooo sick of all these extremely accurate memes being posted by so many beautiful and intelligent people on here. I bet you even smell good! The nerve of some people...

Lovin it! Since the protests I've had to visit Reddit a couple times for search results, but I've found I can avoid it 95% of the time. I'm hoping kbin and Lemmy start popping up on search engines more as the content accumulates. Keep on rockin!

Oh, whoops. Thanks for pointing that out.

Metropolis is interesting because of the time period. I think of it like Godzilla or Akira in the context of nuclear weapons. As a movie, they're fine, but the culture and trepidation about the direction the world was moving adds a whole different level to appreciate.

I'm not a fashion person, but I know you're awesome, so you have my support! I know I've been contributing less because life has gotten busy, but I'm always lurking around.

That's a pretty good list. I have a few differences in how I look at lists like this, though.

I generally lump major series together, unless there's a real standout entry or a long series. So I agree with having just Star Trek 2 in it, but think Star Wars 4 and 5 should occupy 1 spot and include ROTJ. For cases like Terminator, where there are a ton of crap movies, I'd put the original and 2 in a single slot.

There are a bunch of classic movies missing, too. Soylent Green, Invasion of the Body Snatchers, Forbidden Planet, Metropolis, etc. Personally, I'd have Dark City, The Last Starfighter, Short Circuit, maybe Iron Man, Black Panther, or Age of Ultron (some Marvel entry). A nod to anime should also be in there, even if it's just Akira. Others I'd might have in there if I ever sat down to rank these things in order: Total Recall, The Running Man, The Lawnmower Man, Cube, THX 1138, The Fly, MiB, Mad Max, The Thing, Close Encounters

Probably not making the list, but noteworthy conceptually: Minority Report, Johnny Mnemonic, Contact, Children of Men, Contact, Donnie Darko, Looper,

If they want to include movies that were great within their times or some specific context, the original animated Transformers was a crazy, but noteworthy departure from the franchise's previous media. Galaxy Quest and Space Balls aren't philosophical masterpieces, but definitely high on my list.

For kid friendly stuff, Batteries Not Included, Space Camp, Flight of the Navigator, and E.T.

Mine works fine with my sub. Saved me a ton of money, though not as much as opting for the Value Tier carbon fiber for the hull. What's the worst that could ha

I... I'm speechless.

Although, as a professional internet nitpicker, I have top s say I'm surprised he didn't go into color theory more. Easy 45 minutes of additional content there. (I guess he touched on it, but there's so much more.)

Now I remember why I looked at lasagna cat a few years ago and, after a minute or two, decided to set it aside. There's a whole lifetime's worth of content to drown in.

Counterpoint - yes.

I use this one. There are probably better ones, but now I have holders and cases for them, so there's no going back now.

I do the same thing with low poly brains (and a swatch card). I'm tempted to order one roll of each filament I used before starting this, but that would be hard to justify. My collection shall be forever incomplete.

I'm not sure if it helps, but I wonder if this is linked to the inactivity error.

Load up any kbin thread or main page, open a new browser tab in the foreground, me around in the non-kbin tab for 15-30 minutes, and return to the kbin tab. Now any clicks on 'actions' (voting, posting, basically sending info to the server) sends you to an error page. Whatever info you were sending doesn't register (vote count or highlight, posts don't show up, etc.

I didn't have any logout problems at all until maybe a week ago. Since then I've been logged out 5+ times.

Not a big problem for me, but I could see it annoying others.
