OP angrily strikes through another name on his clipboard, shaking his head. He reaches for an intercom button. "No. Send in the next one," says OP. A young guy energetically bounds into the room and introduces himself. "That's enough with the pleasantries. Okay, the scene is you're a patron of a local diner. Your motivation is that you yearn to escape the corporate ketchup orthodoxy. And for God's sake, don't be afraid to show some pathos! Go."

youtube seems to have a thing where it makes the subscribe button glow in rainbow colors when someone in a video says subscribe? It seems to be new?

Will you join my online theater group? We need both actors and folks behind the scenes. Like rigging.

Teriyaki Hairpiece posted:Why do old people struggle so hard to comprehend the idea of a "podcast"?? It's just a drat radio show. They can get the idea of steaming video but not podcasts for some reason. It's the name. "Podcast" is outdated and misleading, and the fact that it even has a special term in the first place implies it must be something more specific than it actually is. And when that term is a portmanteau of two misleadingly specific technologies as iPods and broadcasting, people naturally assume it MUST be some tedious nerd bullshit, because no reasonable person would willingly adopt a made-up esoteric and oblique new gag term like "podcast" (that focuses on the drat equipment) if they could've instead simply used existing familiar words like "audio show" that accurately describe its content and purpose (entertainment!). Online video doesn't have these difficulties because nobody decided to make a jokey Frankenstein combo-term into the official new bullshit name for this concept that already exists like "telestream," or "phonecast," SidneyIsTheKiller fucked around with this message at 07:16 on Apr 29, 2024 |

I had that for a while, and it turned out to be something to do with internet/wifi connection. Try putting it into aeroplane mode before setting it to hibernate? Might be something completely different, but it's low-effort to try it.

Yeh podcast is a really outdated term. It's because early podcasts weren't necessarily broadcast on the web - they were made for download to your iPod to take with you. But now that isn't how it works and so many of them are filmed now, I'm not even sure what to call the format. Internet talk shows? I guess? Are the closest description

I think I've only heard someone actually speak those terms out loud to refer to particular videos maybe once each, and it stuck out how lame it sounded. It's pretty much always "I saw a video on youtube/tiktok/facebook/online"etc.

thathonkey posted:im listening to my favorite audio show Yeah see how easy that is? If you want you could try compound-wording it like "audiobook". We could probably also get away with "radio show" even if it isn't technically correct - since it's a pre-existing term already understood first and foremost as a presentation format rather than a piece of tech (and it's analogous to a series on Netflix being a "TV show" even if you don't necessarily watch it on TV). "Online radio show" would probably cover all the bases for most folks. Hell, we could've just called them "iPod shows" and it probably would've clicked with most people.

It’s not a podcast without an RSS feed, that’s what differentiates it from an audio file on the internet.

podcast is a 20 year old term too this would be like if we called DVDs 'disc VHS tapes' or some poo poo, just like. why did we keep the old technology name in the title. we really have gotten stuck in an era of stagnation, drat.

A niche podcast I wanted to listen to (in French about the Blue Jays) seems to be going YouTube first and linked me to download the Spotify app when I asked about a RSS feed. I refuse to use Spotify and have been going back to the old ways because as discussed ITT they're like the example no. 1 of enshittification ETA: if you put the channel ID in your podcast app (@CHANNEL) it just works, holy poo poo Isentropy fucked around with this message at 15:43 on Apr 29, 2024 |

It's kind of a trope by now, but gently caress 100% of recipes posted on the internet. I don't want to scroll through 30k lines of text before I get to the ingredient list Fresh in my mind because I was trying to find a specific cookie recipe last night

poo poo Fuckasaurus posted:Vlog? Vtuber? Those are good examples, but their usage has fallen dramatically since the early '10. I suspect that's because there wasn't a massive corporation astroturfing the term into common parlance. That said, you're absolutely not wrong that online video-specific terms have always been around. My own theory is that they actually did create specific terms for an online video streaming service primarily driven by user-created content: YouTube. You can already see the confusion that's emerged from the rise of other streaming services entering the arena. Anyone can tell you what YouTube is, but a ton of people don't know what TikTok is, and if you called it "streaming video," I imagine you'd confuse a significant percentage of the population.
