I think OP means more personal enthusiasm, as in being driven to make videos at all. No benefit in being able to fake a smile if you never end up recording yourself in the first place. ...at the same time though, a ton of money and attentio

There’s a beta iOS app called Toot that solves this by letting you add timelines for instances you don’t have an account on. If you try interacting with anyone on that timeline, it asks you if you want to use one of your other accounts to h

I visited NYC two months ago for the first time—as someone who doesn’t drive it was incredible how pedestrian-driven the streets were. Cars would stop for me even when it was clearly their light.

Similar boat of making Minecraft videos in the past (2011-2014). It was mostly just my friend and I playing through various Minecraft adventure/puzzle maps. We got a couple dozen to a hundred followers through luck/timing (playing

As a keyboard enthusiast, when I’m not huffing solder or lubricating plastics or waiting for my IMSTO caps, I spend the rest of my time on typing test websites like 10fastfingers or TypeRacer. The Pain27 is optimized for that experience.

Are my receipts shared with advertisers? The app actually looks pretty useful, but I'm a little worried about that.

With games like Destiny, "placeless" MMOs are already starting to become a thing.

This is pretty much how I felt as a long-time TF2 player super excited for Overwatch to come out, and then very sad once I realized what kind of game it was. You grab your friends and play Overwatch, while you play TF2 and meet your friend

What are some cities with decent enough public transportation and urban planning for pedestrians that also don’t suffer from lack of housing/exhorbitant housing prices? The top cities I can think of that satisfy the former unfortunatel

When SOPA was going on so-and-so years ago, there was a similar bout of over-exaggerated hysteria to get people in action. I was against it back then, but I think the last couple of years have shown that panic and outrage is what actually g

How do you know you and your friends turned out fine? I don’t mean to be accusatory, but I wonder what scale we’re using when we’re saying that this sort of content is “harmful”. I doubt people are implying that watching these videos will t

My Pixel actually suffered from that phone issue as well until I wiped it. Good (and disappointing) to learn now that it's not an isolated issue. Doesn't help that my Pixel was supposed to replace an ever-bootlooping Nexus 5X.

This is ultimately what makes React the right choice for me. A big part of the whole code=data thing is that code can be typed, which means now your data (markup) can be typed as well. Of course this only really matters if you use Typescrip

The thought is that the cards aren't currently just falling as they will, and instead they're falling in a biased way due to prior decisions (and current ones!) that disadvantages certain people. The over-eagerness towards diversi

To be honest, to me it looks a bit noisy, washed out colors, and it must not have been taken in bright lighting because you can see some camera shake. There's also a lot of smudging in the carpet and wall textures, which makes me think

I'd generally recommend the Pilot Metropolitan over the X750, I feel as if the Metro is a "surer bet" when it comes to QA, and it's only around five bucks more. Plus the Metro comes in fine and medium nibs so you have a

Given that /r/all currently has pretty much zero note of the crapshow from a couple days ago, I would think actually facing it and just bracing for a couple of days pays off a lot more than just ignoring it and letting it build up
