    I hate the tendency of leftist youtubers to engage in drama and then pretend they are above it all. You're allowed to engage in whatever you want it's your channel but if you're going to throw a punch in an internet slapfight then you can't pretend like you want to move away from drama.

    If you're wondering why I hate mastodon this is the guy that most mastodon instance admins are convinced is a nazi:

    This is an anti-homestuck account; if I see you use a writing quirk I will mail you a pipe bomb.

    Making a 5+ hour video essay isn't cool or quirky; it's a sign of mental illness. Please seek help.

    >difficult if you make a bunch of 20 minute minutes rather than just one long video where the author doesn't need to re-explain things previously mentioned.

    I suppose, but I've noticed that people don't always re-explain things, they just say 'this is part __ of my series on this topic. If you want to understand what I'm saying I implore you to watch the earlier parts' and that usually works fine.

    The primary appeal of a video essay is the video part, not the essay part. If 99% of video essayists who make 9 hour "My memories of this disney show" slop actually had something to say, they'd just write some shit. All their viewers watch them because they're dazzled by the editing and/or have no internal monologue.

    @McGovern '72! no dude, multi hour video essays are meant to be listened to. The editing is secondary, hell, sometimes tertiary. It's something to look at every now and again. People slap that shit in the background for the most part.

    Actually I think nazis should get what they want: we should deport all of the Indo-Europeans back to Armenia and give Western Europe to the Basque. Not because I think that would be a good policy but because it would be funny.

    > Look for a way to make a navbar appear on every page of a website without copy-pasting the html
    > come up with:

    navbar.html
    HTML: 
    <ul>
  <li><a href="default.asp">Home</a></li>
  <li><a href="news.asp">News</a></li>
  <li><a href="contact.asp">Contact</a></li>
  <li><a href="about.asp">About</a></li>
</ul>
<style>
    ul {
  list-style-type: none;
  margin: 0;
  padding: 0;
}
</style>

    navbar.php
    PHP: 
    echo(fopen("navbar.html", "r"));
fclose("navbar.html");

    website
    HTML: 
    <?php include("navbar.php");?>

    > this can't be the easiest way

    Edit: this code was written as an example I don't actually use asp

    What no scripting skill does to a mf. I just automatically add the navbar to everypage i make with bash.

    only idea i got was using iframe as navbar, but that is still copying the iframe

    If you're using iframes, you would only need the container HTML, the navbar frame HTML, and each page independently. You shouldn't have to copy navbar code in that case, but you would need to have all of your anchor tags point to the right target element. Iframes have been considered gross and bad for years, but they do work. And there could be easier ways to make them fit into a page with modern CSS rules. Could be worth exploring

    I think most conspiracy theories are created because the conspiracy fact that corporations and governments have created a society that runs on autopilot regardless of what you consume or who you vote for is too scary.

    I hate how agora boomers are so narcissitically convinced that all young people are bad, that when zoomers agree with them on the state of the internet they make up an insane conspiracy theory about some ulterior motive that we have for feeling that way.

    I don't mean to be mean or spoil the fun or anything but I feel like a lot of internet mysteries could have been solved with a little bit of common sense/a proper application of occam's razor.

    > Was worldcorp a pedo ring

    It was probably just an honest mistake, that would be a pretty stupid way to run a pedo ring but it would be pretty easy to accidentally mistake evil shit that made its way onto the normie net for a generic spooky video and add it to your arg.

    > Was the original sad satan (video) creator doing a pizzagate

    Probably not. What most likely happened was some dude wanted to create a viral hoax and made the original videos and fake onion link and some loser on 4chan gamejacked his "mysterious darkweb poster" character and used it to show people cp. Also, and I have to moralize for a second, why the fuck would you ruin a man's life over the fakest allegations ever? There is no proof that the anonymous person on 4chan and the uploader of the video are the same person. But what really gets me is that these mystery youtubers will just offhandedly mention that someone was harassed and doxed until they left the internet over the least real allegations ever like it's part of the internet mystery. No, that was bad and you should acknowledge it.

    > Is there an original version of sad satan
    Probably not. All the alternatives presented are less likely than the idea that the dude just made it up for a creepypasta.

    > lostboy.exe
    Not to be disrespectful to the people who lost their computers but you shouldn't download things from an anonymous website filled with trolls.

    I think the problem with the advice that "you should just be the real you on the internet" is that everyone knows you'll be doxed if you say anything even remotely true about yourself on the internet.

    The conlanging community is the optimal community:
    • There's no money to be made so there's barely any drama
    • It's niche enough that it gatekeeps itself but it is not niche in a way that is interesting to outsiders so it gatekeeps influencers
    • the people in it are reasonably mature so it filters out retards
