I found his video on FPTP Binary political systems video to be logically flawed and I think it ultimately caused more harm than good. It's irritating to see people reference it in political discussions today. That eventually convinced me to stop giving him views.

I like him but his mental health issues remind me why it's probably a bad idea to play around with mercury as much as he did.

EEVBlog. The guy is a brilliant electrical engineer but his arrogance prevents him from realizing that his electrical engineering intelligence doesn't translate to other unrelated subjects. I tuned into a live-stream of his once and he started to discuss international geopolitics. His views were ill-informed and half-baked at best. When a couple of viewers (not including myself) simply requested he change subjects, he became indignant and started telling people not to tell him what to do on his own YouTube channel. He eventually told his viewers to leave if they don't like what he had to say. So I did. I have not watched one of his videos since. I did watch Adam Something's witty rebuttal to his video that reviewed and criticized one Adam Something's videos.

I can't wait to see how these laws get misused. My local municipality banned camping in various public places, and if I understand correctly the police used that law as justification to falsely arrest campus protesters back in March/April.

This one was also pretty good.

The public dislikes Harris, for the same reasons I could see her becoming the de-facto president by remaining in her position. Big business interests and Donors would love to have an empty-suit like her to push around.

There's no need to "restore democracy" when you don't overthrow it in the first place.

Back when I moved over to linux I wanted to get away from the mainstream. Fedora/Red Hat were too mainstream for me at the time but I have never had any real objections to it. I eventually ended up settling on Debian and ever since then i've stuck with descendants of that distro because having the same toolchains of software as Debian makes transitioning distros slightly easier.

I know That's a fairly common experience elsewhere. I have a cousin who is a fourth of his name. I think he or his wife understood the twisted family dynamic that came with playing favorites like that because they didn't carry on the tradition when they had their son.

Yes. Flatpak, not Snap.

[addedum] it has been my daily driver since I switched away from Kubuntu a few years back for the aforementioned reason.
