Since on the one hand I have a hard time enjoying Netflix or Disney plus (apart from the occasional once in 6 month show) and since, on the other hand, I watch a lot of Youtube and many of my favorite independent media youtubers keep complaining about the algorithm and advertise Curiosity Stream + Nebula package instead. I finally made the jump.
My first surprise. This is $15... a year! Neat!  Should have done it earlier!

Do you also find time to work?  
|

Damn, I am becoming a celebrity now!  Shoo shoo... you are killing my anonymity!!
|
|
|
|
|
And also.. we got 6 weeks holidays!
|
|
|
|
|
No, I think you mean a whole year for three lines of code...
One exception applies: the sad transition from 2k to the show.

I see you and a few others have made a new friend here in the Lounge.

Nah, I tried work, it's not for me, too tiring! 
In fact, it could be I found the coolest job in Australia, prestigious multi national, well paid, work from home and... 6 weeks holiday!
I learnt that "our" turn over rate is about 9% (per year?) which is a good rate for the industry, apparently...

No Disney+ ? May I please inquire are you not interested in "The Mandalorian" or "The Book of Bobba Fet" - Cheerio
|

Mmmm... I have to confess, I also have Disney+ too... I did binge watch a few things... The Mandalorian ain't it.. I tried, and thought I can't exactly remember why I stopped, I suspect the shouting contrast between spaceship that can cross the galaxy in a blink, blaster weapon and people that lives in worse than medieval condition or huge terrifying (energetic) monster living in place without any food hurt my sense of realism too much to continue...
And also... Apart from Youtube documentary I found it difficult to enjoy many shows, it's a bummer...

I've only watched YouTube for the past 18 months or so. Rught now, I am binge watching ever show on woodworking I can find. Before that it was TimeTeam with Tony Robinson. Who knows what will be next.
The commercials don't bother me, I just fast forward through them.

yeah.. I have the same.. I tried to watch the like of Disney+/Netflix but I rarely hook on something, whereas there is always something interesting on Youtube.
But lately the adds have become long and terrible. Like this Gaia sh*t. And I have to get up from my couch (watching youtube on the couch) a bit too much for my liking!  ok, ok, that sounded lazy.. perhaps I am...

Which brings the question.. how much wood would a woodchuck chuck, if a woodchuck could chuck wood, hey?!
|
|

|
|
Not very much before my dog wood/would/woof put an end to the commotion. 🐶

Ok I am curious.
To err is human to really elephant it up you need a computer

As they say on SciShow (youtube channel), stay curious!

Belated thanks for that. Had never heard of it, here under my rock.

If you can keep your head while those about you are losing theirs, perhaps you don't understand the situation.

You'll have to Doctor that one up a little.
