    a couple years ago YouTube adsense barely covered my phone bill… now it covers my mortgage.

    if you need a KPI to inspire you let it be that.

    Nope! I recently deleted it all and it freed up literally terabytes of space. In 6 years of YouTube, I've never once needed it after filming.

    B roll is a totally different story, and I've found an archive to be priceless.
    Aaron Parecki
    I've been keeping everything for now, but so far have never gone back to dig up the a-roll. I'm going to trash it all when I need the space. I've screencap'd a youtube video where I want to show that it was on youtube with the date and such. Agreed about b-roll tho.

    Hey @YouTubeCreators it would be cool to do collab videos where it shows up on both sides similar to how music artists can on Spotify or even IG.

    Views/impressions/stats count towards both channels and would be a great way to expand audiences.

    @YouTubeLiaison let’s go 😂👏🏼

    So when I was a kid, we had HBO, and we had a VCR, and my dad diligently recorded what appeared to me to be every single movie playing on HBO until our entire hall closet was a movie library full of VHS tapes. It only occurs to me now to ask, was that normal?
    Aaron Parecki
    I knew someone who did this too! I remember the many bookshelves of VHS tapes in his home office, looked king of like library shelves

    Okay shiny black fingernails were fun but wow gel nail polish is really time consuming and messy to remove!

    At least soaking my fingers for 15 minutes per hand gives me an excuse to catch up on some videos

    Yeah we tried actually 2 of them tried multiple times and we could not get any combination of name to work. None of them had ever seen it before either

    Note to self: find out why my TSA pre check didn’t work on this flight. Taking ALL my camera gear out for inspection really slowed things down for everyone…
    Aaron Parecki
    ugh ugh ugh. Yeah probably it was a full name vs partial name mixup. If you notice it's missing on your boarding pass sometimes you can get the ticket counter agent to fix it for you before security.

    That’s why Tesla is right about banning remote work. I know a guy who claims to work for Tesla but also has a gig at a Telcom, at a freight company, does a side job digging holes, sells medical implants AND trades crypto. But he spends most of his time shitposting on twitter.

    Similar position with @Delta - in terms of miles, the rollover alone was enough to reach Diamond 3 times already😅💎💎💎
    But their spend requirement, $20K, will be VERY hard to reach.

    Alaska was very nice to continue my 2019 status through 2020, 2021, and 2022 despite me flying less than would qualify for even the first tier, but alas I think my time as a top tier flyer has come to an end 🥲

    I've been enjoying my Alaska Gold 75K/oneworld Emerald status during 2021 and 2022, but maybe it's time to just let it go. 😥

    I just made a list of all my expected flights in 2023 and I am just *barely* going to hit @AlaskaAir MVP Gold status (40K) by the very end of the year.

    How did I fly so much in 2019?? I hit Gold 75K status by April in 2019! 🤯

    What they don’t tell you about marriage is that between year 5 and 15, your wife will record you snoring in the night, and then present it to you like it’s evidence in a murder trial.

    I’ll say it again — someone should be selling a $2500 webcam that looks as good as an annoying complicated DSLR + dummy battery + stupid capture card setup but connects with one cable and you’re done. They would be printing money.

    The $300 ones are 👎 Someone make a *great* one.
