Which ones would they paywall? The ones which would be the hardest sell for them would be the big meme subreddits, given how many other sites can be searched for memes.

I could potentially see them having some success paywalling all of the sub’s where technical questions are asked looking for solutions to particular problems (think r/DIY). But then again you wouldn’t pay just to have 1 question answered, and would generally just try a different forum if it could be answered elsewhere.

Agreed. Clearly it must do simply what is said on the tin, otherwise why ban it?

Wasn’t Dreamcast the second chance to the very unsuccessful Saturn? Not to hate on the Dreamcast, I wish it did better too. Sony’s success kind of killed Sega though.

Lots of YT creators edit their face to look strange or unsettling. I’m the same as you, though I think it’s more the gimmicky nature of his content I’m a bit put off by.

I think you could happily live your life not knowing who he is. I will say that he’s a master at knowing what will make someone click on his videos.

I’ve been meaning to download the manuals of everything I own from here for my NAS. This website is a treasure.

This is the first game I played and beat in the first console I ever owned.

It turns out that job security is rather important! Who would have thunk that, Microsoft?

Realize that one of the main determinants of your lifelong happiness will be your choice of partner.

Don’t get too serious with someone that isn’t going to elevate you, but also make sure that you’re elevating your chosen partner.

Realize that the cutting edge electronics that you buy today won’t be worth jack shit in three years time.

I like the memes, but I don’t know a lot about the person.

I can’t help but feel that Web 3.0 will accelerate climate change. That said, I know nothing about it except that crypto people are excited about it, which means that money can probably be made from it.

That’s a bummer, I still watch him from time to time but accept it as factual. Didn’t think I needed to fact check him.

Distrotube hits hard. I remember the video showing everyone his collection of increasingly larger guns was the checkout moment for me. Even saying one of them was great for kids. As a non American maybe I just don’t get it.

Gross. I heard he lost a hell of a lot of money on crypto and hookers, so that checks out.

Boogie2988. I thought he seemed like a reasonable, unbiased person when I was watching around 2016. Kind of just moved on with my life after realising he was just following YouTube drama.

Have checked him out in the last year or so and it’s not looking good for him. The really sad thing is that he could have just taken his money and lived a chill life, but he seems to want a spotlight and to feel important even if it’s because people are shaming him for being a washed up b list youtuber.

Wasn’t there that indie game I can’t remember the name of… The End of Us? Something like that.

It’s hard to get an apprenticeship to become one in Australia after your mid twenties. I’ve heard it’s because your pay has to be a fair bit higher than the kids just out of school, so they’d rather train a teenager.

Oh yeah, we’re not at the sweet spot for mass yet. 10 times bigger would still be fine IMO!

Can second the comment about tutorials. It’s amazing how your very very specific problem has a great tutorial, with the worst possible audio, that is perfectly solved by some random dude in his bedroom in India.
