I'm not arguing that he is, so I won't be doing that. I didn't say Brian Cox was a better science communicator, only less of a cringelord.

Unrelated,

Cox is a little more moderate with his religious stuff, and much less outspoken politically but it's not clear to me either of those are necessarily virtuous.

Those things definitely matter to me and to other people. There are ways to broach those subjects that don't paint you in a bad light - for example only when prompted or in the rarest occasion.

Nah. When he first became popular he presented himself as the new Carl Sagan. The one who would continue his legacy. Those are big shoes to fill and he did not live up to it because the fame got to his head. He's getting the appropriate amount of hate as far as I'm concerned.

To my knowledge he's not getting death threats and people aren't trying to get him fired or put behind bars. People want him to cut the weird shit out and be a better science communicator. You don't have to do illegal or immoral things for the public to dislike you.

For example, to my knowledge, Brian Cox seems to be a perfectly normal guy and a good science communicator and people still say that he gives off a weird vibe. Literally people don't like him because of a vibe.

Revisit the thread and scroll down to find that picture of his tweets. People like to pile on other shit that bothers them but realistically, NDT is kind of a blowhard and a bit weird. His ackshewalley attitude doesn't help either.

I've said it before, I found his conversation with god podcast episode to be in poor taste - sort of smarmy and condescending, and this is coming from an atheist. I'm sure there are plenty of racists that hate him for his skin color but not everyone has such easily dismissable reasons.

There's no real reason to prepurchase. It's a digital good, not going out of stock. Just wait for pc reviews.

Remember, do not prepurchase now

How did you get this picture of me somehow not holding a cup of coffee?

I would like to pay for YT Premium, but I think the service is bad. The product is good, and the service is bad.

If I say I don't want to see this video, I don't want to see this fucking video again, youtube. I said don't recommend this channel, and you said I won't see it again, but I just refreshed, and there it is. I am not dutch, I don't speak dutch, I've never even been to the Netherlands. I shouldn't be seeing videos in dutch.

Routinely, I have to go through my home page and try to train the algorithm but I've just given up. I got an extension now that just permanently removes channels and videos I don't want to see.

The thing is... the product is the videos, and youtube doesn't do the videos. Youtube does the service, and the service is bad. I understand that the ads pay the youtubers but the truth is I don't care. That pay is trash, and if they want my premium money, youtubers should unionize and force youtube to improve the service.

Edit: I watch the youtuber's sponsor spot and I buy merch.

No problem

There was a bunch of art inside, people even ran in to save some: https://www.dr.dk/nyheder/indland/folk-loeber-ind-i-braendende-boersen-redde-bevaringsvaerdig-kunst

No, more like that one video with the Polish dudes lighting a trash can cannon in the street. At least for me.

Edit: Fucking thing also jolts me awake sometimes so it takes me a couple seconds to determine that no, in fact the building is not crumbling down.

You'll take my split keyboard and dark mode from my cold dead carpal tunnel hands

However the mood strikes me. I upvote things that I agree with, enjoy, or otherwise approve of. Downvote mostly jerks, liars, and pictures I don't like. Most stuff just glides right by.
