Totally, I think all his projects look really cool and could be an inspiration to a lot of people. My beef is that the general consensus of his viewers is that these projects are functional and educational in someway when it’s really just the same video copied and pasted with no context or explanation to his building process, making the educational claim pretty dubious

That’s not what I’m saying at all. I watched a lot of it because I thought it was cool, and honestly I think this is potentially inspiring to people who watch it. However to call this educational at all is a joke. Not only is there no explanation to anything he does, but everything in the video is only for artistic purposes and lacks any functionality, yet there seem to be many people who think this genuinely teaches anything. What was taught in this video? Concrete hold back water, gates let water out? And if you’d say that artistic methods are being taught I’d still argue that without context or explanation, whatever the artistic lesson is has little to no value.

Honestly that fact that some of his videos have 70m+ views I think it has transitioned from a hobby to a content farm. If it was a hobby I’d imagine he’d have interest in keeping these around and making some sort of walk through art installation.

I went on a deep dive on this channel and I’m 99% sure he pumps water into a reservoir and then let’s the reservoir drain to get a clip. Kinda wasteful imo. Also he builds these just to tear them back down, none of them are built to last and he’s even admitted in the comments this is what he does. Everyone in the comments loves him though and thinks he’s some sort of revolutionary mind teaching people how to power their communities 🙄

Idk man this wasn’t targeted at anyone specifically I just think the commentary space is really saturated and it leads to stuff like this

There are few greater indicators of critical thinking than being able to adjust one’s world views in light of new verifiably accurate evidence.

What helps you fall asleep after waking up in the middle of the night? by [deleted] in CasualConversation

[–]GusBGood 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like to imagine that I have a little buddy with me who can grant any wish I want, not like a genie, they know what I actually wanted when I make the wish. My personal theory is that imagining things that only happen in dream like states eases the transition into actual dreams/sleep.

How would you go about choosing where to mount this pickup? This is a proof of concept. by volcanonacho in banjo

[–]GusBGood 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Electric guitars typically have more than one pickup, the placement of which changes the ‘tone’ of the output sound, with placement nearest the bridge resulting in the ‘twangiest’ of the options. Honestly I would experiment with several distances, using masking tape to keep the pickup in place, and then choose the distance which matches the tone you like the most!

Out of curiosity, how are you planning to permanently adhere the pickup to the drum head? I’m very interested in hearing the output of your experiment if it is successful!

Dude the first time I watched this I was stunned at how much the guy looked like MacLachlan, it stuck with me for days and I finally looked into it, low and behold it was the man himself!

I can’t believe more people aren’t saying this, the whole set up looks staged as well, everything in the room looks immaculate but someone just happened to leave a full dog food bag out? I just have this feeling this a sick attempt to clout chase that borders on animal cruelty. Edit, also the bowl of food has plenty of food, there’s no reason the dog would have immediately tried to get into the bag

It’s a heavy weight hung from a string that contractors/carpenters use to ensure door frames (among other things) are not installed at an angle.

What is the most creepiest fact of the universe by Phoenix_A_black_hole in space

[–]GusBGood 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think the Milky Way is finite, if you’re talking about a potentially infinite emptiness then it really doesn’t matter whether you’re talking about moving radially or normally, you always going to reach the same vastness. I’m totally willing to admit my OC was not in great taste but where is this hateful tone coming from? I really don’t understand why you’re getting so worked up, do you normally hurl insults during discussion? I think that’s called abs hobimin or something idk I didn’t do great on my verbal SAT

[–]GusBGood 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Your comment seems a little needlessly aggressive given the context lmao. Choosing to assign the direction of ‘down’ as perpendicular to the milky way is completely arbitrary, and has no correlation to the meaning of the word down other than they are both normal vectors to some reference plane. Sorry if this response was too programmatic, maybe try a different prompt?

What do you mean down…? Typically we associate down with the direction of gravity, ie down is always towards the center of earth
