That was amazing. The ducks did have a bit of and advantage, though. The koala looked like it was genuinely puzzled.

I have watched a few cooking vids on Youtube.

But the way this guy cooks salmon is so very, very wrong.
Skin side down first. And, if you have the right temperature, there is no need to flip it. And that amount of fat for cooking a fatty fish? You crazy, dawg.
Salmon should not be cooked until it gets flaky, just pink.

And he has his own products that he snake oils on the channel. Fuck off, ya doss cunt.

Except at the actual ranking of those critters. :lol:

Any Austin became slightly viral with his video about tracking down all rivers in Skyrim to their source. He's doing fun little nerd examinations of video game worlds. Like the unemployment numbers in various cities in Skyrim (an most recently New Vegas), where the birds in Red Dead Redemption 2 travel, whether the power lines in GTA4's Liberty City make sense, whether furniture in Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom or in Skyrim make sense from  a woodworking perspective, or just generally finding unremarkable spots in video game worlds.

Recently he teamed up with Legal Eagle to check if the traffic signs in GTA V are in line with the Californian Law. As someone who lilkes to exmaine clutter, textures and ceilings in games I very much appreciate this kind of content. :D :nerd:

Pretty interesting interview with William Dalyrmple, a British historian specialised in India.
Some really interesting stuff in there that fills some gaps in my knowledge.

Ignore the stupid preview graphic. I can't remember him saying British history is a lie- he just complains a bit about how totally untaught this stuff is and how we put all our focus on Rome with a mention of China to the side and India gets overlooked.

I've been following for a few months now. I like his dry seriousness about the stuff he covers, ridiculous as it is (though it sheds light on little noticed parts of world and environment design in games). :)

Fun video. Not sure if it holds up if you were to nitpick it, but I still found it enjoyable. :)

The graphics card issue of ninroot is actually something really meta and it is a condition that many in universe people have?

Dan Snow has delivered his magnum opus on History Hit. :P

In a 3 and a half hour video he goes chronologically through WW2 with scenes from movies (and Band of Brothers/The Pacific).

Its funny when it happens.
A Gen Z youtuber who usually says basically the right things in an approachable style, did a video about immigration...where a lot of what he says echoes my views, e.g. about how tighter border controls are counter productive.

I've mentioned the Andrée Expedition before, but here's a new documentary on the expedition that's very well made I think.

Women want me. Men want to be with me.

May I offer you a video about Marillenknödel in these trying times?
