This is an amazing concept, so raw. I love it

#122So, how do I press "go" that's mentioned in text in the overlay?
I had to disable PrivacyBadger for it to work

#123wow ... that's surprisingly cool - the videos are not as degenerated as I would have expected

#124I'm stuck in a strange loop: videos change, but the music doesn't. I think it's Debussy, the effect is very strange (and nice too). Bug or not? :)
Oh, and the small button below has disappeared.

#125Earlier quoted context omitted.
As someone who regularly searches IMG_0123 to see things like "mayonnaise man" before astronaut.io existed: you must share the link to the video. There's no excuse for the lack of a link. Also, this service does not work with iOS, which is a shame.
You can't link, since whoever made this site disabled any and all controls on the videos. Even the youtube button in the corner is blocked off. This is one of the most evil implementations of video embedding i've ever seen.
Well, isn't it the whole point, though? :)

What exactly is the point in your opinion? I have no idea which exact point you're referring to, and the point as i understood it is 100% undermined by the implementation.

#127PSA: Watch in an private/incognito tab/window. If you are currently logged into your google account, this WILL pollute your watched history: https://www.youtube.com/feed/history That said, I really do like the concept. It's literal reality TV. Very cool.
Oddly the videos don't end up there for me. Which is somewhat disappointing because I would like to share some of them with others. This tool needs a "link to video" or "share video" button.
The youtube embed normally has all of that by default. They explicitly prohibit the user from accessing any of those.

#128This one's beautiful: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hxX6ZWeK18Q
How are people finding the video ids? Even the developer console doesn't seem to show any URLs with parameters that lead to the videos
If you're logged in, the videos are saved to your YT history (https://www.youtube.com/feed/history)

#129Wonderful. If you like this, you might like these other two pages which exist -- like this page -- to demonstrate the breadth of human experience: https://paperplanes.world/ http://radio.garden/
Paper Planes told me "This experience requires WebGL and a modern browser." I have a MacBook Air, fully updated, with Google Chrome. It redirects me to the Google Chrome download site. Any clue what I'm doing wrong?

#130I got this one (illegal cock fighting, maybe not illegal in the country it was filmed in).. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JZIS_5SyxSg
That is Thailand. It is theoretically illegal but still popular. The birds usually don't die. Here's more: http://www.bangkokpost.com/learning/learning-news/751760/coc...
I was recently in Lao and saw village boys around ten years old training these birds to fight. In context it looked totally normal and reasonable.
