Oh, I had conflated the two! That makes sense.

Thanks for metaphorically having my back!

Nobody but you poops and that’s concentrated evil coming out the back of you.

(Trying to make an early Family Guy reference here, but all I can find on YouTube is Rick and Morty, so maybe I’m misremembering)

This is exciting news, but the abbreviation makes me want to go to the Amigara Fault.

This is a video of a seal getting startled.

The human recording seems tedious, but I love the video nonetheless.

I learned this on cracked.com! I don’t remember how long ago it was, but I wonder if they had a similar source.

For the immediate future, I will assume that “Chihuahua Taco” is a grammatically correct Spanish sentence.

Talk to that guy who recently posted about being exposed to Taco Bell for the first time.

Just because I’ve owned two Chihuahuas in my life doesn’t mean I approve of the franchise!

edit: Also, I don’t actually speak (or read or write) Spanish, so this is the only comment to which I can usefully respond. I have no actual ire toward you.

Everyone should have responded in Spanish.

Not only is this true and annoying, but other things about the ads are getting worse, too.

I recently had to factory reset my TV and, after the first time I opened the YouTube app, immediately had to find the “don’t play video preview” option. It worked, except for the huge banner ad at the top of the list of videos, which still saw fit to play with deafening sound when I didn’t immediately change the video selection. I can’t find a setting to disable this.

Also, I’ve noticed the “fewer ads for this long video” message popping up during videos longer than thirty minutes (and now it seems like longer than twenty minutes). Not only is that message condescending like they’re doing me a favor, but I’m pretty sure it’s not true, at least not by much; and the ads are definitely longer and mostly unskippable.

Like someone else says in this thread, it feels like extortion.

Old.

You must wait to find out.

You’re allowed to add buttons? I thought modern phones only took them away.

Hah! I like that comparison, very apt.

I am married. My wife is concerned because I enjoy and own an unreasonable quantity of video games and books; and we have a toddler with a growing interest in both as well.

My wife says that our next house won’t have a library, it will just be built from books.

On the plus side, one of my favorite authors - Terry Pratchett - once said “I wouldn’t want to be friends with someone who has enough room for all of their books.” I would have liked to be friends with him.

What if I massively overbuy both games and books without consistently consuming either?

Happy to be of service, hope you love it.

This is essentially the premise of Stop Killing Games but in a different world.

Maybe I’m misunderstanding your complaint, but it is available on PC?

Autocorrect and inattention are not my friends recently.

A long time ago, I saw a post on Reddit from a user saying (paraphrasing because it was a long long time ago) “the only thing I want from a TV is an HDMI capable rectangle.”

That must be how they named this.

You have convinced me to investigate The Thaumaturge.

Also … Excellent points, all.
