Seriously folks. Have you seen modern HTML and CSS? It rules and HTML/CSS programmers are awesome.

Is it canonical that "paddles" are called that because of "PONG"? I heard that so often as a child I just assume that's accurate, but I don't have a source from the original team behind it to confirm that.

How much more carbon is each Google search emitting now? That's weighing on me lately: I've resolved to drop Google searches as much as I can.I have mostly used DuckDuckGo over the past few years, and longtime readers may remember that I actually gave up search engines entirely for months (after a failed experiment using Kagi).But with Google increasingly shoving AI down my throat on every search, now those results are worse than ever, both in terms of quality and environmental impact.

I realize the irony of a YouTuber being concerned about Google's environmental impact. But yeah: not only do I think we should improve society somewhat, but I also run a PeerTube mirror of most of my videos.

So, this video wasn't available until today via PeerTube, because it costs money to run a PeerTube instance (no ad revenue).I am hoping to add GPU transcoding to that PeerTube instance someday, but it's expensive. More monthly supporters will help make that happen.If you want to see a world outside of YouTube, you have to help fund the creators outside of YouTube. It's really that simple.https://patreon.com/VeronicaExplainshttps://ko-fi.com/VeronicaExplains#PeerTube #Linux #SelfHosted

I hate to be so blunt about it, but without supporters to help build a successful PeerTube platform, you just wont see it grow.If a creator you enjoy is pumping out PeerTube videos, support them so they can keep going. It's that simple.I lose money on PeerTube month after month, and if you-all want to see a YouTube alternative, you have to... fund us.

OK, my favorite question I'm getting on this setup (from many commenters) is "where did you get the picture of the pachinko machine" and the answer is literally just "I took a picture of a pachinko machine". 😜
