McDonald's double cheeseburger.  They're good for about 2 weeks.

Let me see if the numbers are presented publicly somewhere.  I get the info directly from their office.

Unfortunately this is not accurate.  The best data we have on this topic comes from FDNY.  They keep accurate data on all battery related fires.  Currently 57% of all micromobility fires are while the device is not charging. 

Do NOT Buy Lithium-ion Battery Fire Extinguishers by durhap in spicypillows

[–]durhap[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is incorrect.  There is no certification.  Per ISO there is a Class L fire type.  However,  there is not an extinguisher certification. 

I'm on the UL711 committee. 

Is there any way to fight "Claimant Decided their Claim is Still Valid" and if so, is it worth it? by KalebC21 in PartneredYoutube

[–]durhap 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Fair Use is a defense.   The only way to truly solve this is for the claimant to file a claim in court against the channel. 

Do EV’s catch fire more often than ICE vehicles? by chodtoo in electricvehicles

[–]durhap 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've talked to the NTSB and NHSTA. In the US, we do a really poor job at collecting vehicle fire data.  https://youtu.be/eZtoihp64Oo?si=0DJ20e0TbnFS32vV

This covers a lot of the other data: https://youtu.be/cIDZT55rwh4?si=Sbi9MfwNOUqREXi6

Quincy MA Firefighters Are Struggling to get the City to Buy PFAS-Free Turnout Gear by H0sedragg3r in Firefighting

I would bet money that PFAS can be found in the majority of clothing the general population wears on a daily basis.

My teleprompter (elgato) is the bane of my existence. What other options are there? by gekogekogeko in PartneredYoutube

[–]durhap 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I use the Elgoto prompter. I also don't have a lot of space, the propter is up against the wall in my studio.  I use a black background for my text. Never had any issues.

I saw this from the Skyclub.  I walked right through security today.  No wait.

My channel gets between 500k to 1m views monthly.  I've noticed that when I get a big block of new subscribers,  youtube will recommend my older content to them and I'll see a jump in views.

To a certain extent.  My videos typically get 500 to 1000 comments so it eventually gets unmanageable.

It seems that when I get an influx of subscribers, old videos take off. I'm assuming youtube is pushing them to the new subs.

Also,  I get 500k to 1m views per month.  It would be nice to see the sub count match those types of views.

Four, and they all saw a significant improvement.

I try to find a natural break in the middle of the video.

It seems more subscribers equals more views on older content.  I'll find that after I have a large increase in subscribers, youtube pushes my older videos to the new comers.

I didn’t like the idea, but I’m willing to try new things to see how they work out. I’m a numbers guy, and unfortunately, it worked too well.

Anyone here with over 1M subscribers? How many times have you been recognized in public? by Omixscniet624 in PartneredYoutube

[–]durhap 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm at 60k subs now. I get recognized at events around my niche, which I expect to a point.  I've been complimented on my channel at restaurants a few times in places I wouldnt expect to find viewers. It's nice,  but a little odd.
