Dear YouTube,
Do you really need to ask if I'm "experiencing interruptions" every time, the second I hit play on a video? Do you have that little confidence in your product?
Grudgingly yours,
Ben

I think 48 points from a single city in Carcassonne might be a personal record...
As a fan of the outdoors, I'm a little surprised by the lack of (semi-)realistic camping/hiking gear and its use in video games.
Occasionally I'll catch streams of games with some interesting elements (Oh, look at all these cool backpacks in Tarkov! Oh, this tent and gas cooker in Cairn look neat!), but they never seem to a) use it to its full potential, and b) combine it with gameplay and/or narrative I'm actually interested in.
Help, I can't stop watching @LoadingReadyRun's How to Kill a Rock
If it feels like time is hurtling by too fast, think about this fact: February this year was shorter than average.
Seeing the phrases "Only on Netflix" and "Leaving Soon" juxtaposed says a lot about the mess that is streaming content these days...
My only issue here is that checking REAPER's forum is so embedded in my muscle memory that I keep constantly going there even when I know it's closed for the day... 😅
And this is commercial software, to be clear. It says something about the developers that they're willing to take such steps to express their values.
Wow.
The software I've used for making music for years now is a digital audio workstation called REAPER. Not only have I always liked the software itself, I've also had a great deal of respect for the transparency and community-mindedness of its small dev team, and I'm quite active on their user forum, which I check in on multiple times a day.
So I just went to check the website again, and was greeted with a blank page with the below message. And my respect is just going through the roof. 👍
@LoadingReadyRun I just spent far too long speculating who might be piloting the LRR account in the pic (cause brains be like that), not realising the alt text gave it away. 😂
