#my youtube comment

hey, so people need to be aware that youtube is now (randomly) holding basic features for ransom (such as being able to pin comments under your own videos) in exchange for Your State ID/Drivers License, or a 30 Second Video Of Your Face.

not to pull a "think of the children," but No Actually. I've been making videos as a hobby since 2015 (and I've had my channel since middle school), I was a minor when I started and I'm not sure I would have understood the kind of damage something a seemingly simple as a video of your face can do.

this is a Massive breach of privacy and over-reach on google's part No Matter What, but if they're going to randomly demand a state ID or license then they absolutely should not allow minors to be creators.

google having a stockpile of identifying information on teenagers is bad enough, but the Alternative of recording your face and handing it over to be filed away is Alarming considering it opens the gates for minors who Aren't old enough to have a license.

and yes, there is a third option, but it's intentionally obtuse. a long wait period (2 months), with no guarantee of access (unlike, say, the convenience of using your phone's cameras for either of the other two), with absolutely No elaboration on what the criteria is or how it's being measured.

it's the same psychological effect that mobile games rely on. offer a slow, unreliable solution with no payment to make the Paid instant gratification look more appealing (the "payment" in this case being You. you are the product being offered).

and it's Particularly a system that (I think intentionally) disadvantages people who don't treat their channels like a job. hobbyists or niche creators who don't create regularly enough or aren't popular enough to meet whatever Vague criteria needs to be met to pass.

markiplier would have no problem passing, your little brother might not be able to. and while Mark's name is already out there there's no reason why your little brother's should be too.

something like pinned comments may seem simple, you don't technically Need it. but it's a feature that's been available for years. most people don't look at descriptions anymore. so when there's relevant information that needs to be delivered then the pinned comment is usually the go to.

for my little channel that information is about the niche series I create for. guides on how to get into the series, sources on where to find the content At All (and reliably so). for other creators it can be used for things Much More Important.

Moreover, if we let them get away with cutting away "small" features and selling it back to you for the price of your privacy, then they Will creep further. they Will take more.

Heya 💗💋🍓🌸Sweet*POP🌈🍭💀🌟 here! I want to share a very interesting idea that I posted as a comment on YouTube a few days ago, and could be totally unexpected for Helluva Boss:

21 years ago, a mysterious, unidentified flying object came out of nowhere all the way down in Hell! It was falling out of the sky like a meteor rock and landed in possibly the Pride Ring. The moment this "UFO" hit the ground, it made quite an extremely loud thump/thud that it affected all of the 7 rings!

All of the 7 Princes of Hell were informed of what had just happened, and the 6 other princes travel to Pride to assemble with Lucifer(yeah I know he's from Hazbin Hotel/HH) to check out the "UFO" that had landed in Hell.

The 7 Princes witness this "UFO" actually being some kind of space pod that strongly resembles the moon, a full moon in its appearance.

But, as they're all figuring out what the hell(pun not intended) to do about this situation, a whimper/cry is heard coming from the moon-designed space pod. That immediately caught the 7 Princes' attention.

Then the door of the pod opens after the cry had voice-activated it to open. And what do the 7 Princes of Hell discover what was inside of the pod?

.

A 1 year old HOUND puppy girl!

This discovery made history in Hell....except for one detail that was left out: the 1 year old female pup that was found inside the UFO aka space moon pod has been kept classified/a secret from all the inhabitants of Hell by the 7 Princes for an unknown reason....

And so back in the present, the *space pup* is a 22 year old woman who has always been believed to be a hellhound by everyone in Hell...

So what do you all think of Vivziepop doing this surprising, unexpected, but interesting idea in a future episode of HB?

Please share feel free to share your thoughts in your comments or reblogs.

apparently when Astarion is reading the Necromancy of Thay book and he says "No I won't kill them. Well maybe [character name]" the companion he mentions is always the one who has the highest approval with the player (or second highest if he has the highest approval) Lmao He is jealous. I didn't know how this works. I thought it's random but he always said Shadowheart in my game and I never figured out why.

Seeing Twitter users recommending the People Make Games documentary as a good way to get insight on the issue is so….

I know, I’m always extremely disappointed whenever I come across someone who thinks it’s the end all be all explanations regarding the Studio ZA/UM situation.

Recommending that video always comes with a heavy caveat from me that the person needs to stop around the 40 minute mark since the interviewer shows a very clear bias that’s unbecoming of a journalist.

Regardless, now that more people are finding out about these layoffs, which might take out members of the studio that have been there since the beginning, it could finally help smack some sense into those Twitter users that actually thought, FOR SOME REASON, Rostov, Kurvitz, and Hindpere were lying for shits and giggles rather than seeing what's ACTUALLY going on which is that the investors have a very obvious agenda against the real wronged party. Hopefully this'll also open their eyes to how the People Make Games video fed into this twisted narrative that Kurvitz was somehow at fault/responsible for the theft of his own IP, but that might be asking too much from their concrete brains. Here's hoping though!
