A YouTuber let the Cybertruck close on his finger to test the new sensor update. It didn't go well.

Well to be fair, that functionality is a pretty pricey add-on.

No one’s told you about the Super Knight? It’s $8.99/turn but it can move in any upper-case letter path. It also discounts the Victorian Hat Pack for the queen.

Threw a wrestling watch party, made special food, and was very disappointed in the outcome.

YouTube is increasing Premium prices in multiple countries, right after an ad-blocker crackdown | You either pay rightfully for the video content you consume, or you live with the ads.

That seems like it could work, and I would love to say you're right, but many of the companies advertising—especially as we're seeing more and more of the big players—have a really diverse ad spend budget so their dollars are all over the place. Because so many ads aren't looking for a direct sale but rather increase your awareness when you DO want to buy, say, laundry detergent, there's no way to tie your purchase to having seen an ad (though marketers LOVE to try and draw lines to efforts, many are hazy at best). So seeing ads and consciously not buying what you're seeing could in theory lead to a dip in sales, but the watch numbers are high, so no adveriser would be able to tell that dip is because of youtube, or podcasts or... uh... radio?.
So sadly the best way to hurt the system is to a) keep blocking the ads so the watch level is low and the advertisers want out or b) drop the watch level naturally by picking another platform.

I loved that pinball game enough to want to watch the show. Still haven’t, but I wanted to.

This is really interesting to see. The new Jaguar concept seems like it took cues from this kind of geometric design (for better or worse).

I know custom ink has an option for higher quality shirts (or used to). I wouldn’t be surprised if it’s an option at any of the other big shops, too (redbubble and… um… that’s the only other one I can think of off the top of my head)
