I was going to post a bit of a slam on Hbomb basically not releasing any content in 2021. Then I saw that his vaccine video came out last May, and I guess one really well-done, researched, feature-length video is a fair amount of output for one person in a year.

I like her view on education, although i feel it's stupidly hard to not end up structuring the process of acquiring "essential skills" anyway. That doesn't mean it should be what it is right now though, which is actively harmful to the learning process IMHO. Like, if you ask most English as a Second Language speakers here, if they don't come from a country where English is an official language anyway (or Sweden, I guess), they probably picked up most of their English from videogames or Internet poo poo. That's not super well-researched but there is evidence to it being true: https://www.zurnalai.vu.lt/verbum/article/download/11354/9818/

So if that is a thing I don't see why we shouldn't focus on teaching people skills based on their context and interests.

It's not the first time a big streamer's taken a temp ban for this but watching TV on Twitch seems to be the in thing at the moment, especially if it involves a certain highly sweary British chef. A crackdown on this is inevitable, and it's almost certainly going to be crap. Someone big's going to complain about a big streamer watching television with a 10k+ audience. There's people who watch TV/YouTube stuff and actually make commentary on it as opposed to just sitting in the corner giggling, but it's probably all just going to be hit and not really worth doing (speaking as someone who often likes to show old crap British telly from time to time, even that's not going to really be worth it).

The end result is it'll probably be just like streaming on YouTube. I got a 3 month streaming ban on YT for showing a freaking ancient episode of Win, Lose or Draw simply because Content ID picked it up while I was live.

There are other people who fall in the "online creator" category aside from people who make 20-minute video essays about why Ant-Man has a sad dick

Hbomb did say, on a reasonably old video at this point, that he was gonna get bald at an early age either way due to him having high testosterone levels.

Retropals this week did two achievements: Doing their 100th stream of playing and then ranking platformers on a list that's easily around the hundreds + finally finishing Escape From Cyber City / Freedom Fighter / "Hi we made a game from nothing but Galaxy Express 999 footage". The reason why the later is important is that they've spent years trying to get it to work but also nearly every game in the VOD is utterly baffling in some way. Retsupurae only riffed on BadLands footage. Trying to play that mess of a game is something else!

Are people really suggesting that the DMCA should allow you to just rebroadcast anything? Like there are a lot of things wrong with it but this seems like an actually reasonable thing for Twitch to strike an account for. It's not like disconnecting the commentary from the copyrighted media isn't a solved issue. And if you want a simulwatch party for smaller audiences things like synchtube derivates do exist.

There's nothing wrong with going bald, there is however lots of things wrong with choosing to grow the generic white bald guy unkempt beard.

20 minutes? That's old poo poo. That's behind the times. 2 hours about why Ant-Man has a sad dick is the minimum you're gonna need to get those views.

I very much agree, but I believe it's a more effective way to gently caress the DMCA if you keep to it's actual problems instead of inventing fake ones.
