Videos may by actual humans that you haven't seen in a while but still enjoy watching periodically. I'll start us off:

OP, can you embed every YouTube video there is in this thread? I get tired of watching ads on their site.

^^No, but you can install a competent ad blocker and then watch YouTube videos from a browser instead of the YouTube app and never see another YouTube ad.

I can watch a 2-hour YouTube video with zero ads for free.

You can also cast to your Smart TV or streaming device and avoid ads that way.

bro so one of the guys I'm following.. I feel like it might be thoughty2? he has some interesting videos. I think it was his anyway, but he (they) said that

ok well I can't seem to get my thoughts together

but it was something like the vast majority of the computer data that's ever been created was within like the last 2 years. and it's been a good bit of time since I saw that, so I can't remember the estimated amount

but it was absolutely staggering. I know AI has produced a massive shitload of useless data, but I didn't realize that it was to that extent. and I'm thinking it's not just AI either. probably just more people using the internet worldwide, faster speeds, better technology

I don't get surprised very often but I was semi-surprised by that. after thinking about it, it's not so surprising but hopefully it will be some kind of wake-up call that we need to fucking slow down on artificial intelligence. unless AI itself can figure out a way to make energy that's beyond any of our current energy-making methods

I think the surprising part was that it was something less than 2 years, like maybe 1.5 years

I'm in favor of solving difficult problems that will help humanity.

I'm against a mountain of terrible and useless content drowning out everything good.

when you walk into a grocery store, you can buy fresh vegetables, or you can buy junk food

choose wisely

How about a grocery store with 10 items you want hidden among 10 million you don't?

oh for sure. i'm mostly banging the drum about the people who see the rise of AI generated slop and think (or more accurately are convinced to believe) all AI is bad, but have spent their entire lives swimming in a world of slop books, music, tv, movies, and people and managed to avoid reaching the conclusion that all books, music, tv, movies and people are bad and should therefore be banned or at least slowed down.

let the sifting of bad and good continue

I understand your point, but I also feel it's a bit different with physical items you select and may then own as compared to digital items promoted by algorithms. It will get more difficult to sort and find as the volume of slop content continues to ramp up. Just browsing the YouTube thumbnails on "recommended videos" demonstrates that. But are real people watching and enjoying this at appreciable levels, or is it just botnets popularizing their own content?

[Edited on December 8, 2025 at 1:14 AM. Reason : junk food is bad but not all food is junk. YT has plenty of junk food but not all YT is junk]

[Edited on December 8, 2025 at 1:14 AM. Reason : we don't need to ban or slow down YT just bc there's a lot of slop. people just need to learn to recognize slop and stop shoving it down their gullets.]

I feel like you should probably post links instead of embedding 50 videos onto one page

you know, unless you enjoy making other people with old computers shit the bed

How old is your computer for real? It's not like it plays all the videos at once. It's thumbnails. Nobody would click links, or I'd have to manually label them all. I'm trying to use my premium status to its full potential!

I'm viewing from a phone. It works fine.

lol I got it in 2010

it sort of loads videos

IDK like it loads almost every site fine

it shits the bed on Facebook though (I spent approximately 0 hours there per day so it doesn't matter)

IDK what FB has going, but it's obviously way too much shit going on in the background

It's probably your browser more than your computer. Are you using Firefox ESR?

I have a new laptop, I just like this one better

it was obviously designed to last, doesn't have bloatware and spam

the new one is fine, but it'll take some getting used to

ESR is Extended Support Release

A browser for old computers no longer officially supported, but still gets some updates and maintains capabilities longer.

regular FF seems to work mostly fine but, yeah I prob said it ITT but like for instance Facebook likeee I can't even use it hardly. I type a message, but can't see what I'm typing (I know I'm typing it like 97% accurately) but it literally takes minutes. I go to other tabs to do other stuff, go back to that tab and it's still inputting my data, like literally at maybe 2 characters per second

really weird stuff

I wonder if switching to ESR would fix that

though again, I hate FB and idk why I even care about that

Yeah, Facebook is garbage and should be avoided. Firefox eventually stops offering updates for an older operating system. Then you need to switch to ESR. What operating system are you running on your computer from 2010?

I'm home in NC for the holidays and successfully watched a full embedded video without any random HTML downloads (or ads!) and am now posting in this thread on a fully 19-year-old computer (late 2006) just to beat BubbleBobble. That's right -- this computer is older than Smath74's claimed girlfriend. Fight me, BB!
