also "the twist you expected" section ironically is the one that caught me the most off-guard

I've been a patreon for a bit and I've watched all the videos about his set and having to recreate it in Blender for the Vaccines and Oof videos. So I noticed the shine on his head was a bit too green, and I was like "you won't get me this time." He's still two steps ahead, perfectly played. I am going back and rewatching the reveal and laughing all day.

Here's my article on autism media representation, in case you want something to plagiarize for a mediocre video essay on autism media representation.

Thanks, I'll make sure not to properly reference you <3

I used to occasionally watch James Somerton's videos. Holy shit, what a fundamentally uncreative piece of shit. I can't believe he exploited such an important discourse and niche just for his own gain.

[-] Franzia@lemmy.blahaj.zone 9 points 11 months ago

You did the spoilers wrong lol its uhhh >!!< so >! Spoiler !< >!spoiler!<

[-] AVincentInSpace@pawb.social 3 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago)

That is how it works on Reddit. Lemmy has its own entirely incompatible spoiler tag system which works like this:

Text next to the arrowText inside the spoiler which can be multiple lines and can contain *formatting*

Which produces this:

Text next to the arrowText inside the spoiler

which can be multiple lines and can contain formatting

Reddit style spoilers that look like >!this!< don't work on desktop or, as far as I know, any mobile app besides Sync.

[-] Franzia@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago)

Oh my gosh this is insanely helpful, thank you. Yes Im on Sync and your message looks completely not spoilered except for the last bit. So thats cool. My spoilers are incompatible with the spoilers everyone else is using?

[-] AVincentInSpace@pawb.social 3 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago)

Correct.

What's more, Sync somehow manages to mess up the formatting of Lemmy style spoilers despite not rendering them. The correct sequence for a spoiler is a triple colon at the beginning and end, akin to the triple backtick for a code block. If you view a comment formatted like that in Sync, it will for some inexplicable reason convert the triple colon into >! ... !<, even inside a code block.

Here's how my comment looks on Jerboa:

Here's how it looks on web (lemmy.blahaj.zone):

And here's how the exact same comment looks on Sync:

I do not know what the Sync devs are thinking.

Bruh. Thanks for letting me know, I otherwise would have had no idea.

[-] EmilyIsTrans@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 points 11 months ago

I just used the spoiler button in the lemmy interface. I don't think there is a standard way of formatting spoilers in markdown?

[-] Franzia@lemmy.blahaj.zone 22 points 11 months ago

This video was fire af. Definitely a good one for the queer crowd!

[-] ninpnin@sopuli.xyz 20 points 11 months ago

Interesting title but cuom its literally four hours long

[-] flamingos@feddit.uk 52 points 11 months ago
[-] qaz@lemmy.world 4 points 11 months ago

Yes, I only have 1 hour left 😢

[-] slacktoid@lemmy.ml 2 points 11 months ago

Yes 6 more hours!

[-] ninpnin@sopuli.xyz 17 points 11 months ago

[-] shneancy@lemmy.world 9 points 11 months ago

give it a try anyway, i have adhd and his videos are so easy to watch the hours fly by

[-] mercury@lemmy.blahaj.zone 0 points 11 months ago

[-] Franzia@lemmy.blahaj.zone 12 points 11 months ago

It was worth it

Omg I was JUST yesterday wondering aloud when the next hbomberguy vid would drop, and my partner said she thought he might be done 😫 because of how the last one seemed to take it out if him.

Pretty hyped to watch tonight

E: it's 4 hours long we're feasting tonight!

Probably an unpopular opinion on Lemmy, but I think hbomberguy is one of the creators it's worth supporting with ad views if you don't want to do patreon or premium or whatever.

Edit: hbomberguy has a discussion about monetisation of this video around 3h:23m-3h:25m

[-] TotallynotJessica@lemmy.world 5 points 11 months ago

I got consecutive ads for using AI to "brainstorm" ideas and save time. Youtube has no sense of irony.

[-] anarchist@lemmy.ml 4 points 11 months ago

Or you can watch it on nebula

[-] SrSilla@lemmy.world 8 points 11 months ago
[-] moosetwin@lemmy.dbzer0.com 7 points 11 months ago

so true, you said what we couldn't have.

[-] puchaczyk@lemmy.blahaj.zone 5 points 11 months ago

I remember watching his video on body and fascism and thinking "what the fuck are you talking about". Now I know why. I bet James is looking right now at some apology videos to plagiarise.

[-] Pxtl@lemmy.ca 3 points 11 months ago

I know Harris argues against Google automating enforcement, but like Google does have an index of all of the text on the Internet including knowledge of when the Google Bot first saw that text, as well as auto-generated transcripts of the videos on Youtube, right?

[-] dexa_scantron@lemmy.world 8 points 11 months ago

The problem is there needs to be a threshold for how much copying is plagiarism, and how sources need to be cited, and how transformative a work needs to be, and all of that can be very subjective. I don't trust YouTube to make rules that are specific enough to be consistently applied or to apply them fairly, given their track record with copyright enforcement. Neither does hbomberguy apparently.
