I created the f7u12 subreddit, so I thought it would be funny if I put the "reddit is down" graphic over the subreddit front page with CSS. It had millions of subscribers. They all kept refreshing.

Lol, that's good. Also le f7u12, haven't thought about that in years .. I guess you brought rageguy over from 4chan then?

It had already spread by then, I just created the subreddit and it took off.

This page seems to have zero text or image content unless I let SquareSpace run Javascript (and ostensibly track me).

Would your quality of life browsing the web not be infinitely better if you just span up a VM and sat behind a vpn on it?

Um, no. No, I don't think so.

Excellent, this explains it. The YouTube video you shared says the trick is to create a resumable upload using YouTube API. The steps involved : 1. create a resumable session (here we specify video length in bytes) 2. YouTube returns a session URI which contains the upload ID 3. create a video with the upload ID baked in (edit video to match length from step 1) 4. upload video to the session URI https://developers.go…

I have not been doing any edits of video for a long time... What are most people editing vids with these days?

DaVinci Resolve.

Also available for GNU/Linux: https://www.blackmagicdesign.com/products/davinciresolve/

The free version of Hit Film is really excellent: https://fxhome.com/hitfilm-express Good to put some VFX.

Aw, I was excited until I realized there's no Linux version :(

I must confess that it was one of the reasons that I left Linux. The other was parental control.

I used shotcut last year, even if it was a little crash-prone on windows 10.

It's apparently even been done before, see here at around the three minute mark: https://youtube.com/watch?v=UMYTSJTU0Vk

Oh hi, creator of the video here! It's just a fun video of me messing around with Windows 8.1 I made a while back, trying out different "apps" and stuff. I thought it'd be a fun easter egg to download the video itself when I was trying out that strange YouTube MP3 downloader app :D I didn't do it with the API (even though I tried to at first), just the normal youtube.com/upload site. I used Fiddler (Burpsuite alterna…

I always see creators popping up when something they made is mentioned. I find it too coincidental that you just happened to be on HN and happened to find the comment mentioning it. Do you use a service that scrapes sites and pings you of keyword mentions?
