Escalators, standing desks and electric toothbrushes don't really stop working, they just turn into their static counterparts.
Is there a software analogue to that pattern? Damn lethologica.

This thread is very good security advice even if you are not a YouTuber. You should listen to her.

A big creator channel may get fast ticketed support, but us smaller channels would be screwed if this happened, so here's a thread I'll provide on security techniques. Should I make a video on the topic too?

Tldr: Sim swapping to take over YouTube accounts and run bitcoin scams.

Please for the love of all that is good add multifactor authentication to your account.
SMS 2fa codes are the simplist, they're better than nothing. If you use SMS, set up a secret phone number that you only use for your YouTube account. Your email should have 2fa on it too.

For youtubers specifically :
You. Are. A. Target.
Don't click things. If it draws on FOMO or emotions, especially fear, don't click.
Use different passwords EVERYWHERE. A password manager is a must. If a website has no limit on pw size, make those mfers like 100 characters long.

Interesting how homeowners with 1910s mansions that are insulated with newspaper are very concerned that new apartments aren’t “sustainable” enough

@aaronpk Building out my studio (thanks for all your info!).

If you bought a new camera today for streaming/video with $1k budget (body only is fine for dslr), what would you get?

The Lumix G7 is probably the best bet. $500 including a kit lens. https://geni.us/sJFt Then upgrade the lens to the Lumix 15mm or 12-35mm for better depth of field. Also get the usb battery for continuous power.

One day last week I saw the UPS truck drive by my house AND IT DID NOT STOP.

I bet the driver thought something must be wrong, too.

When Yahoo bought Flickr and delicious, was that anti-competitive, or does it only count if it works?

getting a laser printer was 100% worth the up-front cost. you know how much ink i've had to buy in the last year and a half? none ink

Right? They're not even that expensive anymore either! I've been carrying around mine for like 6 years now. I think I've bought one replacement toner.

Upload is a comedy but it’s like a legit passive critique of tech eating up everything and finding a way to charge for anything. Those without funds are forced to live at 10 minutes on the hour and you can’t even get clothes in some cases.

Use the device flow for this, right @aaronpk?

Device flow is a good option for this. But the regular auth code flow and either automatically launching or just showing the URL to click on works too. Downside of that is the CLI app needs to spin up a web server to catch the callback. Device flow doesn't have that requirement
