  • This might not be up your alley, but I really like yt-dlp to save content.

    (Windows instructions since I haven’t fully transitioned yet, but if you have, you can figure this out no problem via the yt-dlp github page.) Open cmd to the yt-dlp directory (go to the folder where you see the exe in file explorer and type cmd into the address window so that you don’t have to fuss with cd commands,) type whatever you have the yt-dlp exe renamed to without the extension (I just renamed it to yt since I rarely have a queue, and I’m lazy AF,) and then start pasting links. Add a space between every link obviously - but you can queue up whatever you want to watch the next day and download the queue while you sleep. Place the yt-dlp exe on a usb-c thumb drive and you can transfer the media files to your phone for listening to at work mid-transit if you need to keep your phone in your pocket.

    ezpz, and an example of two videos in queue:

    I may pay for premium, but I still hella support data archival.


  • Honestly, last time I used DMs was to give someone support during their finals since they were debating streaming during the time or not, and letting them know that their future and mental health are more important was well received.

    I think the issue is that most well adjusted men see that there’s almost never a reason to DM a stranger since you can just reply where anyone can see it, and the depraved see it as a chance to unleash their inner ape behind a safety shield - so friendly folk do the friendly thing and simply don’t use the function until there’s a solid reason, and that almost never happens.

    Anonymity and social things really don’t mix well when we have so many abusive and self-centered people who see it as an opportunity to ape out.



  • Look up the Redragon VATA K580 if you are looking for modular with on-board keyboard LED controls via key combos (no software or system level lighting functionality.) I’ve been using that for a while with AKKO silent penguins, and I really like the thing.

    Only downside I can think of is how narrow the sides of the included switches are, and how I accidentally damaged two of them while pulling the switches out. Might just be skill issue on my part, but it did come with a few spare switches anyways.

    Late edit: other downside is that you can’t adjust the color or brightness of the media keys, lock lights, or macro buttons once you’ve saved a macro. Thankfully those are minor issues, albeit a tiny bit annoying.

    I try to avoid paying them any attention unless someone wants me to look at or touch them thanks to the implication. Most of the time it’s just a place where I shouldn’t look, so it gets a little awkward in my head when someone has on a graphic tee that I want to read or look at.

    Something to work around most of the time, but then can make a partner happy when they are appreciated as themselves when vulnerable enough to bare that much, which adds a little special dynamic that gets the brain chemicals doing their thing.








  • I’ve always had issues with volume levels on Windows, so I stick with Equalizer APO for my solution now. Just set a preamp on the device in question and set it to a negative number that sounds and feels right, plus there’s a handy on/off for every setting you choose. Other people might have better options, but I’m lazy AF, and it works for me.

    Biggest thing I love that program for is setting a lowpass filter for my Bose, so that knocks in videos don’t sound like someone is knocking at my door, then just switch it back off when listening to or working with music. Great tool.

    Edit: you can have individual settings per device this way as well.
