    I think it's everyone that's being forced to go back to work leaving it fullscreened on their computers when not using them. At least that's what I'd do.

    I don't want to sound alarmist... and there are only really a particular amount of ways that you can describe how a Playstation works. However, there are a number of paragraphs in that video that sound a little too close to mine when I talked about how the PSX worked...

    So, it's basically another "copyright is too long" video that avoids discussing things like how YouTube's owner Alphabet has a vested interest in breaking copyright, and (as Tube has discussed here) openly attacks copyright owners for asserting their copyright on new work. Or how our society openly devalues creative labor as a form of labor. Or that there are companies with deep pockets (like Alphabet) that support and fund anti-copyright positions for their own financial benefit.

    If you talk about how YouTube's copyright system is broken without discussing the idea that it's intentionally so to further Alphabet's agenda - then you're not really discussing the matter in my opinion.

    Also, Tom's line about how "creators are driven to create" can kindly go fuck off. This is an argument that is routinely used to devalue creative labor, and it's something that he should know.

    "here" in the general sense of on these forums he has complained about infuriating bureaucratic sloth and stonewalling when non-megacorp copyright holders like PA attempt to protect their copyrights through youtube's systems.

    A few of these threads back, Tube discussed going through the manual copyright claim process for a small creator - YouTube basically makes it as hard as possible for you to assert your claim, and tries to shame you if you do go through with it.

    Until YouTube actually has 100% human reviewers for claims, the process is broken. Until every creator that's made partner has a personal YouTube contact that can actually initiate a manual review...yeah I just don't seem them fronting the cash to actually fix the appeals process for claimed vids

    youtube has financial interest in not allowing the appeal process to work, so it never will barring government intervention, and honestly lol

    The issue is that Alphabet has a vested interest in breaking copyright (when a large part of your business is content distribution while doing little to no content creation, copyright is purely a liability to you,) and as such has every reason to make Content ID as painful as possible to encourage people to oppose copyright. It's the same reason why Grover Norquist is adamantly opposed to allowing the IRS to calculate your tax filing for you - doing so would make taxes less painful for most Americans, and he would lose support and political power.

    Why should babish get tested? He's young, healthy and with no preexisting comorbidities.
    He should stay home until the symptoms wear off, regardless of if its cold or corona.

    There are a lot of places in the United States I can understand not getting tested due to how fucked the situation there has been and how likely it is that you'll be expected to drop like two hundred bones on the test, but as far as I'm aware New York is like one of the only places in the country where you actually can get reliably tested like how a normal country should

    The primary reason to not get tested beyond cost + unavailability is if it is not possible for you to be tested in a safe location, either because places that would do testing are swamped with people or because you would need to for example take public transit and expose people as a result

    I guess I'm just used to the situation over here where:
    a. The situation is that the labs are testing as many kits as they can every day (they're at max capacity) so the testing protocol is to prioritize the elderly, anyone living at an assisted care facility and anyone in a hospital.
    b. The treatment until you begin to develop respiratory problems is the same as if you're sick with the common cold. Self-quarantine and avoid NSAIDs.

    He should get tested because he can then definitively tell people he's had contact with to also self isolate, and also because so much god damn focus is being put on those graphs and numbers of people who are sick/recovered/dead and you need to test people for those numbers to be accurate!

    It's fucking dire that it's even been suggested that people who have symptoms shouldn't seek a test at this point, are you fucking kidding me.

    I'm not surprised considering the American health system, but fuck. We have a hotline and if we get symptoms, we call it and we get tested. End of debate.

    yeah we can't because The US President refused to authorize the WHO tests, probably so that a company owned by Jared Kushner would get a contract to design the worse, different test that didn't work.

    The fuck are you doing with this? Normally I'd think this is a bit, but I know it's not...



    And folks, he contacted his doctor and the CDC (two things he should have done) and both informed him NOT to get tested because there aren't enough tests. If they said "yes, go get tested" then my presumption is that he would have. There are literally not enough tests. He can still tell people he's been in contact with that he's got it and then they should all react and act accordingly. We don't know that he hasn't, nor do we know that he has. So guessing there is pointless.

    Does it suck that we don't have enough tests so that everyone gets tested and therefore we know how bad it actually is? Very very much so. Those numbers would be hugely helpful. But he's also just one guy and is following the advice of his doc and the CDC.
