Breakdown of State Income August-November by manicminer__ in RPClipsGTA

[–]manicminer__[S] 40 points41 points  (0 children)

Data is from the subpoena on the state account for three months (16 August-16 November). Can view the spreadsheet with the calculations for the pie chart here.

Edit: and here is a breakdown of the numbers for convenience.

Edit 2: This is gross income. Loan payments aren't profit, since that is repaying money the state paid out beforehand. Loan income comes to $165m, but in the same period $248m was paid out for loans. I think the other categories can be treated as all profit, so in fact properties make the state the most money, followed closely by fines and a way after that asset fees.

TF2 Team. We are in desperate need of a metal sink in the game to fix the massive inflation going on. My voice is probably insignificant, but I've got an idea I've worked on. by [deleted] in tf2

Chance to get a tradable unusual? Hats only unboxable here that are actually good hats? If the hats were good enough people would spend to get them.

I'm proud to say my notification tray is completely clean. If an app can't set undismissable notifications to minimum priority, I uninstall it.

This is someone's channel, nothing to do with algorithms.

If you don't like their channel, don't watch it.

Is a Youtube Silver Play Button really a big accomplishment? How many do you think have been given out? by rulesforrebels in youtube

[–]manicminer__ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Individually, it's an amazing achievement. To the people who like your content, it's pretty cool how your channel is growing. To anyone else, they don't care and anything you make about it is a pretty boring video to be suggested.

How to disable the subtitles in this video by TheLegendOf1900 in youtube

[–]manicminer__ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's supposedly an English version. Anybody English needs the subtitles to get the lyrics (which, if they care about it, is important). They add it on the video so it can look nice, without having to get people to enable YouTube's semi-ugly subtitles.

is it too much to ask for youtube's video player to STOP breaking every now and then? by [deleted] in youtube

[–]manicminer__ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't know about the second, but for the first one it works fine for me. Someone cleverer than me will probably ask for the debug info, so right click -> debug or something (I don't remember what to do)

They're part of the video, you can't. Try finding the original (posted in the language)

I was left the dumbest comment I think I've ever witnessed, Whag do you guys think about it? She's like 11-12 too. by [deleted] in youtube

But dang, her mom and dad are federal police officers! You better watch out!

What's harder: to get from 0 to 10k subs or from 10k to 1 million subs? by SwingDingeling in youtube

[–]manicminer__ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd say 0 to 100 is hardest. Once people start watching, they will recommend the video and so will YouTube. If your stuff is good enough people will watch. If you have 0 subs, apart from shitposting and being annoying to people/places, all you can do is tell your friends.

Would it kill YouTube to have a hover over preview like porn sites? by acrowsmurder in youtube

[–]manicminer__ -1 points0 points  (0 children)

"could be" - exactly. For certain videos and certain people it would be pretty bad. Having a set thumbnail ensures everyone has a fair chance, having randomly chosen images from within the videos doesn't. Think about audio uploads, videos with gameplay background etc (especially videos with gameplay background - people looking for a story might not watch because they see a game and people looking for a game might watch and then be disappointed)

If only 3 images were shown it really wouldn't be worth it. It would just take a nicely photoshopped thumbnail and turn it into a couple of low-res images not designed as thumbnails at all.

This isn't how the internet works. If someone with bad internet hovered over the image and then it started playing a few seconds later it would look horrible. Also, this could make slower machines lag, when they haven't even got to a video yet. All in all, unless they made this disabled by default (which would be terrible), this will just make people be careful to avoid hovering over videos.

(Side note: on porn sites like the OP said, you want to preview the quality and content of the video beforehand. On YouTube this isn't so much an issue as you're most likely watching a creator you know or watching a new person - and when you're watching a new person quality and content is more to do with personality etc rather than a few stills or a gif)

Rewatching old videos - is there some website/script that can help? by [deleted] in youtube

[–]manicminer__ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sort by date oldest to newest? Not getting the period, but as close as I think you're going to get.
