If pewdiepie is one of the most deplorable people in the world you know of. You must live in some kind of alternative universe and in paradise.

Cossty@lemmy.worldto pics@lemmy.world•A woman watches her husband and child bathe on the beach6·1 month agoIt’s really interesting. In a real life they want the picture above, and in video games they want every woman to be a model and showing as much skin as possible.

Cossty@lemmy.worldto Technology@lemmy.world•EU fines Apple $568m for deterring third-party payment methods on App StoreEnglish510·2 months agoSteam’s 30% is the last of their problems, I would like them to finally start actually moderating Steam forums. Because devs of the particular game usually don’t care. Visit some forums of newly released popular game and it’s full of bigots, misogyny, trolls and hate. It’s unbelievable.

Cossty@lemmy.worldto News@lemmy.world•San Diego becomes first U.S. city to ban digital-only grocery store discounts15·3 months agoI am actually surprised that this isn’t law in Europe already. I hate when I go to a supermarket, I have to always check the app for coupons and discounts. Otherwise I would have to pay 30% more for my shopping list.
Cossty@lemmy.worldto Technology@lemmy.world•Bookwyrm, BookBrainz, OpenLibrary, etc.English6·4 months agoI am currently using Storygraph, but I might switch to Hardcover. Their app is really good looking, if a bit slow, and it is very letterboxy, which I like. They too have lists feature which is a lot better than just tags, in my opinion.
I like storygraph a lot but… I have been using it for around 3 years and in that time nothing substantial changed on that website. They still don’t have normal author page.

Easiest solution IMO.

I guess I can see that, but I never said that it is cleaner. It’s the same for me. It’s not dirtier. It’s not cleaner. It’s only faster. Eating the banana sideways might look weird to other people, but there is literally no advantage for me to eat it normally.
When someone tells you that they finished a book in a really short time, the first thing you think is probably that the book is really good and they had to like it. You probably don’t think, “oh, that’s not really reading. You technically just skimmed through it, you don’t know what you even read.”
Some people read faster. Some people listen faster. It shouldn’t be that surprising.
I don’t know what to tell you. It looks like to me that you seem to think that somehow I am wasting my enjoyment of the media. Or that my consumption of the media isn’t the right one or fulfilling or something like that.
As I said before, I can understand everything. Why should I listen to or watch something in normal speed? It’s just a waste of time in my case.
When somebody can hit a target that is 300 meters away, why would you tell them to shoot at the target that is only 100 meters away? What’s the point in that for them?
I don’t know if that is a good analogy, but I don’t know how else to explain this.
When I am cooking, cleaning, etc, I listen to audiobooks. Not at those same speeds as YouTube videos. Between 1.25x and 1.8x, depends on a narrator again.
I thought that was obvious. Time.
You would not believe how much time I have saved over the years by doing this. When I can finish 30m video in less than 10 minutes.
I don’t know about you, but when I come home from work, I don’t have a whole evening to just watch yt videos.
This way I can finish the videos I wanted to watch a lot sooner and then I can go and do something else.
Gradualism
At first I watched every YouTube video on 1.5x for like 6 months.
Then I watched everything on 1.8X for another 6 months. Then 2.2x and so on.
Now I watch everything between 2.8x and 3.6x, Depends on the talking speed of the person in the video. I can understand everything.
Of course I watch some videos in normal 1x speed but those are usually just like artistic videos or movie trailers and stuff like that. If there is just a person talking to the camera, there is no reason for me to watch it in normal speed.
Still can’t set the video speed above 2.25x? Otherwise it’s useless to me.
If somebody doesn’t want kids, they should never let anyone talk them into it.
I don’t want kids and I always get weird looks from family and friends but I don’t care.
Situation in the world is terrible and on top of that I know that I wouldn’t be a good parent.
