They would have to come with phones then because believe it or not not everybody has one. But I agree it should always be an option to use another smart device as a remote control.


If someone doesnt even have a phone they probably arent buying a modern TV.

Not a good one at least.

How did you come to that conclusion? Some people simply don't need or care about having that technology with them everywhere they go. Or, like me, don't ever go anywhere. Has nothing to do with how technologically proficient they are. A lot of people in my family have smart devices but no phones.

From what I understand the controversy is not about showing a dead body(did he actually do this?), it's about him laughing and making jokes about the situation.

So the issue is not showing respects to dead strangers? People are fickle.

It's not so much about not paying respects, it's about not being respectful in general. Suicide is a serious topic and it affects a lot of people, so some dickhead youtuber going to possibly the most famous suicide hotspot to make a comedic video is going receive some backlash. The vitriolic backlash in this case is a bit pathetic though, but that's social media for you.

So ad revenue and child porn is ok (the CP was from several months ago), but swearing or having a controversial opinion or being an atheist gets you demonitized and delisted.

Isn't being Google reason enough?

He made a video about the Suicide Forest where he showed a recently dead suicide victim on camera.

Sounds like a documentary I'd give a fuck about.

I'm sick of reportings being at a perfectly peaceful place and the reporter talking about some shit that supposedly happened, but you'd never have guessed. May as well've stayed home.

From what I understand the controversy is not about showing a dead body(did he actually do this?), it's about him laughing and making jokes about the situation.

There is no "supposedly" about the suicide forest, it is a notorious spot for suicides. There are plenty of documentaries showing human bones, campsites, suicide notes, and even people who are there to commit suicide.

I didn't drink anything but will probably go out for a few sometime this week when it's less busy. Still I don't really get hangovers. Probably because I keep hydrated.

IIRC dehydration isn't the main cause of hangovers. It has to do with inflammation. Supposedly taking an Ibuprofen before going to sleep helps prevent or mitigate a hangover.

... I looked this up on Christmas because I knew I would be drinking a lot.

I watched it a couple days ago and to be honest I found it kind of boring. Not fast paced enough, and was there even a single explosion?

Seriously though I found it kind of boring but intriguing enough to keep me interested.


It's not supposed to be fast paced or explosion heavy considering it's a detective story.

Yeah I know. The first sentence was supposed to be funny haha joke. "Boring" is pretty much a general term I use for anything that doesn't leave a lasting impression. In the end I didn't care for it but it was good enough to keep my attention.


What are some recent films that left a "lasting impression" on you? I'm genuinely curious to hear.

Despicable Me 3

...

To be honest though, I wasn't in the right state of mind when I watched Blade Runner 2049. I was a bit distracted so I'd have to watch it again and pay attention this time.

The best way to learn to code is to... read the manuals

And that's not at all what I asked :P


But it is the truth.

I don't know about that. Most programming languages don't have "manuals", they have documentation, and that is hardly a good starting place to learn a language. Usually you consult documentation once you've already learned the language.

So apparently TJ, Paul, and Scotty did an episode without Ben in which they covered a video by a certain manatee where he talked about Ben cheating on his wife.

At a glance I'd say... maybe. I mean the best way to learn is by doing so really you could just as easily read some tutorials online to get the hang of it, then practice and consult the documentation whenever you need to thereafter.

Like if I'm learning a new language I'll read a book or tutorials until I have a good grasp on the syntax and standard libs. Then whenever I want to do something specific I'll find a solution online.

TJ does mostly short videos these days in a series called "Triggered". His style is quite a bit different now than it was even a year ago. His personality is pretty polarizing so can't really blame anyone for not liking it.
