What the What??!! @TeamYouTube How Do I Get This???? Very Cool!! 👍

I've been doing the timestamp thing for the segmented play bar for a while, but I haven't seen the chapter sidebar on any videos yet even ones I've watched! Must be something new!

@aaronpk I noticed you're using two ATEM Mini.

Are you able to control both with a single computer? And have you daisy chained them to add more inputs to your live stream? Stream Deck to control?

I couldn't find any videos addressing those questions. Thanks for your work!

Yep that's exactly right! The HDMI output of one ATEM Mini is connected to an input on the other. Companion with a Stream Deck can send commands to both, so I can make a button that switches both at the same time.

@aaronpk Ok, this is magic that I need to learn more about. Also, it's pretty clear that Mastodon is not going to be the killer app to supplant the dominant social media players for most people.

I don't necessarily recommend this path for everyone, but I implemented ActivityPub (the spec Mastodon uses) into my own website, which was definitely a lot of work, but does mean I can reply to Mastodon users without using Mastodon itself.

The iPhone 12 had consistently died on me after about 12 hours off the charger every day for the past week. Needless to say, I wouldn't suggest it to anyone that needs solid battery life. It seems worse than the Pixel 4 XL, but somehow it isn't getting the flack the Pixel 4 did.

wait, what phone does better than 12 hours off the charger?

@aaronpk Whoa, how did you link a Twitter username from Mastodon?

I'm not using Mastodon 😉 I make my own rules

Fantastical does this?!?! I too use it and did not know.

right?? It's the "propose additional time" feature!

#lazyweb I want a tool where I can add like 3 or 4 possible times and send someone a link, and they can view the times in their own timezone and then select one of them from the list. Bonus if that results in a calendar invite being sent to both of us. Does this exist?

UPDATE: It has been brought to my attention that I have been using Fantastical by @flexibits and it in fact has this feature built in! Amazing!

@aaronpk It does. Use the “propose another time” button to add multiple times and then add the people as attendees. Here’s a video explanation.

Holy crap this is exactly what I had in mind, I had no idea! I've been using Fantastical this whole time!

@aaronpk I use Fantastical from Flexibits for that. It’s not cheap, but it works very well and is hence worth it.

Wait I also use Fantastical but I wasn't aware it had a scheduling feature like this?

Looks like Doodle wins! I'm annoyed it forces me to connect my calendar since all I actually need is the time chooser bits, but it does work like I want it to!

Isn't this what Calendy does? https://calendly.com?

I do like calendly but it's overkill for this since it requires setting up a meeting type or giving someone full reign over choosing any open slot in my calendar

and to be clear, I explicitly do not want a full on scheduling system like @Calendly for this (which I do use and enjoy, but this is a different use case)

I would add a telepromter with a ring light for presentations, maybe overkill for meetings but looking exactly at the camera makes such a difference..

Teleprompters are cool, but add a lot of bulk to the setup. Plus good ones aren't cheap. You can also just train yourself to look at the camera when talking to people instead of looking at the screen.
