Literally unwatchable.

I recently saw a channel called ChatCat. This dude summarises these videos in like 15 seconds, it makes you wonder how this guy talks about said topic for this long

SkyezOpen ,

It’s actually impressive how much you can drag out a topic by saying “woah that’s crazy” followed by uneducated waffling on a topic you don’t know shit about but have some feelings on how it should be. Joe rogan even made a living off it.

A billion years ago we figured out acquisition. Grab all the stuff.

A million years ago we figured out language.

Now we use language for acquisition. If we do that efficiently enough we can convert language to acquisition 100%. Which deletes all value from the language for us. But what a great business!

FeelzGoodMan420 ,

Because all of these YouTubers are just tryna feed the stupid fucking algorithm. All of these clickbait shitpost videos can be summarized in 10 fucking seconds. But they create clickbait headlines and drag the video out to generate more traffic for their channels. Youtube is fucking aids.

melpomenesclevage ,

is fucking aids

No we have treatment for that now.

AngryCommieKender ,

Prostate cancer then. We aren’t getting a cure for that any time soon

melpomenesclevage ,

So it can only effect ~50% of the population?

Still seems like you should be apologizing to a certain cancer.

feedum_sneedson ,

It’s pretty treatable, pancreatic cancer is the shit one.

Eyck_of_denesle ,

Have you ever tried to think that maybe there are people that enjoy watching long yap sessions? Clickbait def works but i doubt if penguinz gets unique viewers every single day.

ComradeR ,

I love their channel! Subbed at the first video. I’m more impressed when ChadCat shortens hours long videos int seconds of information. It’s impressive!

Looks interesting but woah those videos are a sensory overload. Could do without the music and vortex background and actually showing more than one thing on screen at a time. (is this what adhd people like? )

mydoomlessaccount , to lemmyshitpost in And so he spake unto them

To be fair, from this screenshot, I can’t concretely tell if he’s actually speaking words. He could be staring in the camera going “ma ma ma bababa wiwiwihiiiiiiiii baba” for 10 minutes straight. I turned my phone all the way up, but the picture still doesn’t have sound, so I don’t know :(

Complete valid points. Will add sound to the image in the future.

BleatingZombie ,

But only the sound from that frame

It looks like it would sound something like “Oooooooooooooo”

Kinda like this? youtu.be/dDzJvwz-lRM

CrowAirbrush ,

He might as well be going: “ma ma ma bababa wiwiwihiiiiiiiii”.

psmgx , to lemmyshitpost in And so he spake unto them

I never got what people thought was cool about this guy

MyNamesNotRobert ,

His commentary of police chases can be entertaining but meh.

Veneroso ,

His voice is decent to listen to and I started watching him when he did infomercial reaction videos personally.

Crikeste ,

Me neither. He appeals to the misogyny crowd and riles them up anytime Pokemane so much as leaves her chair.

Even if he doesn’t hate women, he appeals to his audience who does. Which might be worse.

HappyFrog ,

Of all commentary youtubers out there Charlie is probably the least problematic. I’d rather have him at the top than any one else.

SuperSaiyanSwag , to lemmyshitpost in And so he spake unto them

I might not even be exaggerating with this number, but 99.9% of these types video game videos (someone talking to the camera) are the most stupidest topic ever. They take a non-issue and just blow it up. I get that negativity gets more clicks, but it’s still sad at how many clicks they get compared to actual insightful videos.

CluckN ,

Critikal absolutely milks the YouTube algorithm. I feel like he just checks the Frontpage of Reddit and reacts. It’s crazy watching him get 1.2 million views in a few hours just by reacting on bad thing being bad.

spujb , to lemmyshitpost in And so he spake unto them

it’s not his fault he was born a professional-grade yapper

Empricorn , to lemmyshitpost in And so he spake unto them

Well, you don’t make as much money off a 30-second video…

“10 minutes of me staring into the camera silently.”

35,000,000 views.

SkyeStarfall ,

That would be an amazing bit

Nathan Fillian speechless

If it were ten minutes of this, I could see the appeal.

Paul of LoadingReadyRun made an entire channel out of that just to see how it worked out: youtube.com/

I mean, Vsauce made a 3 hour video of just saying prime numbers in sequence, nothing else. 18m views.

He appealed to the nerds. Easy mode.

This is the efficient resource allocation, organization of labor, and innovation for which capitalism was created and a real-life example of why government should never interfere in its miraculous operation.

mean_bean279 , to noncredibledefense in HIMARS Song (July 2022)

This whole war from Russia has taught me one thing about my military (USA). We need to be producing 10x the ammo for the HIMARS and building more of them fuckers. They’re clearly devastating and I want us to have more than enough ammo for them, and some extras for our Ukrainian allies.

BombOmOm OP ,
@BombOmOm@lemmy.world avatar

Yeah, I know Poland went on a buying spree after Russia invaded, which included a mammoth amount of HIMARS launchers and missiles. I recall the US Army also decided to invest much more heavily in medium range fires, rather than just relying on the Air Force for PGM support. Apparently they got nervous about the prospect of a future war where someone figures out a way to deny US air supremacy; which could result to a reversion to trench warfare like we see in Ukraine. A solution to this is massed, accurate, ranged, ground-based fires.

Line go down, then back up, make me very happy. Line go sideways, makes me meh. Line go up, then back down, make me very sad…

Well the gold standard had to be abandoned when most of Europe switched to backing up their money with the value of US dollars after WW2, and then France wanted to exchange all the US cash they could get their hands on for gold so the US had to then ship all that gold to France and after that the fear was more countries would do the same thing.

Rikj000 ,
@Rikj000@discuss.tchncs.de avatar

The gold standard should never have been abandoned.

Nixon untethered us by doing so,
now the inflation balloon will keep on rising as a result.

The gold standard should never have been abandoned.

www.npr.org/…/why-we-left-the-gold-standard

It was originally abolished in 1933, but then replaced by the Bretton Woods system wich claimed to be a gold standard but actually wasn’t one. It was a pinky promise to exchange Dollars for gold, but the US never had enough gold to actually go through with that promise when someone tried it with a larger amount (wich happened in 1971 when france called that promise in and blew up the entire bluff)

The gold standard was abolished because having it chokes your economy. Not being able to adjust the amount of money in circulation is severely limiting to investment, because if the economy grows but the amount of money doesn’t then money becomes more valuable simply from sitting around. And then why open a factory and take risks when you can just put your money in a sock as investment. A slight inflation is considered beneficial because it encourages people to use their money instead of letting it sit around.

The only way to increase the amount of money in a true gold standard system is buying more gold, wich is very expensive for the government and puts you at the mercy of gold exporting countries.

The reason why a gold standard was established in the first place was the fear that trust in paper money wasn’t enough to keep it valuable. Turns out it is enough, as long you’re careful about how much you print

Carve out the faces of the past mayors on the canyon walls while we’re at it.

SolOrion , to funny in Line go up

I’m confused about where the joke is here, honestly.

TheBat ,
@TheBat@lemmy.world avatar

Joke is there are people who honestly believe the gold standard should’ve remained in place.
