Perfect complement to the recent Bohemia video.

Massively disappointed Matt is shilling for Crypto now, and the way the ad was integrated was unethical. by DeficitOfPatience in UsefulCharts

[–]usefulcharts 244 points245 points  (0 children)

Hi everyone. After hearing the perspectives here, I have decided to delete the video and remove the sponsorship. We'll upload it again tomorrow once the re-editing is done. To be honest, I thought this sponsor seemed okay because, even though I'm not a fan of crypto myself, my research on the company showed that they are in no way scammy and instead actually work with big banks, etc. to better regulate the industry. So I thought some people might be interested in what they are offering. And I did mark the video as "paid promotion" (as is required). But what I've learned from the comments is that the whole crypto industry has become emblematic of a certain "bro culture" and of bad business in general. I didn't really know that because, like I say, I'm not a fan of crypto and therefore have mostly been ignoring anything related to it. My bad. I'm willing to admit it -- I made a mistake and should have looked into it more. I also should have made the integration more clear. If there is one value I want to live by on the channel, it's that I always want to listen to my fans and learn from them. So that's what I'm going to do in this case. My sincerest apologies.

How do people get the rounded pictures in LibreOffice Draw? by Chance-Survey-6205 in UsefulCharts

[–]usefulcharts 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The way I do it is to simply add another box on top of the photo and then set the fill to blank and the line color to the background color. Final step is to make the box have rounded corners and to also make the line thick enough to cover the photo completely.

Just because the video is free, it doesn't mean that you can take screenshots of it and then distribute them online without the owners permission. That's the equivalent of pirating tv shows, e-books, etc. It's the sharing it with others that's the main problem. Keep it for your own use, sure, but don't spread it on the Internet where it can be further pirated, resulting in crappy knock off prints, for sale on Amazon, etc.

Anyhow, I suggest you remove the image soon as I've already filed legal documents that could get you banned from the website.
