   To be honest, YouTube is not only a platform where you can watch /download the video ,but a wonderful field where you can share and grow personally and help oher people to flourish through sharing your vision , art ,creativity ,etc.

• Apple apologizes for iPad 'Crush' ad that 'missed the mark'

  I enjoyed the ad for the same reason I and millions of others enjoy The Hydraulic Press Channel [1], I genuinely have trouble seeing how in good faith the ad could have been interpreted as anything other than "This is all the stuff that fits in your iPad" - https://youtube.com/@hydraulicpresschannel. - Source: Hacker News / 2 days ago

• Explosively pumped flux compression generator

  Someone get Styropyro to build one to power a laser cannon. He’d build one for sure. https://youtube.com/@styropyro?si=6odE-Af0yU8ZpzxE. - Source: Hacker News / 7 days ago

  If you don't have the space for a pond, you can grow interesting critters in a jar on the windowsill. And if you don't have time for that, you can veg out to the Life In Jars channel: https://youtube.com/@LifeinJars. - Source: Hacker News / 13 days ago

• S23 8k video freezes when played on VLC computer

  Use MPV. Partticularily shinchiro's builds. Extract the folder where you want its installation directory to be, if you decide to install it. Otherwise, just drag and drop files on top of its window or executable. Source: 5 months ago

• Google Chrome just rolled out a new way to track you and serve ads

  One example is a script to quickly grab the URL of the current tab and send it to mpv¹ for playing or yt-dlp² for downloading. Or send some JavaScript to that same tab. Or grab the URLs and titles of all tabs in all windows that match a specific domain, close them, and then reopen in a brand new window. Alfred³ has a ton of automations that allow you to do that without having to code it yourself. ¹ https://mpv.io... - Source: Hacker News / 8 months ago
