id actually love to see the breakdown of channels with content by subscriber count/youtube partnership status. I suspect a very large percentage will be non monetised. speaking from experience it either takes a shitload of work to get the ability to earn literally a few dollars or you somehow get lucky with a “viral” hit. even people in my niche the “big ones” make maybe a couple hundred bucks a year in ad revenue
andre antunes got it to write a song in the style of muse and he added the music. it was half decent
its really not that nuts though, unless you make assumptions about people’s houses being too big or soundproofed or whatever. never had them, never needed them for 3 kids
I just can’t get behind (heh) OF personally. evey video I’ve ever seen has just looked like a tiktok/insta “influencer” having sex and it is just a massive turnoff for me. the lighting is just so off all the time. looks more produced than actual produced stuff. just doesn’t do it for me
couldnt put it down!
exactly. its a crime from a different era, risks far outweigh reward now
yeah, if anything we are more spread out in australia
all those things are risky as fuck with police AI number plate recognition these days. it would take no time at all to track someone down over $50 theft
petrol is about 1.5x the price in Australia compared to America with similar geographies to deal with
helpful I guess. I was excited when Spotify started to sell audiobooks but the pricing was just rediculous
one of those windy radios you crank for a bit would be better for emergencies
my kids dont understand the concept of entertainment that isnt on demand. like at all. even if its one of the rare occasions we will put something on FTA tv they act like why cant i just watch it later, they simply dont comprehend the idea that you have to watch/listen to somethng at specified times otherwise you miss it
oo is this better than the one you have to do every 3 months via powershell?
cool, definitely not a typical network
if its a relatively flat coastal location, its possible. FWIW I work for a water utility in a coastal city and we have a desal plant. Ive seen the figures. the cost of desalinated water compared to the catchment water is an order of magnitude difference. Sounds like LA it would be ideal for the environmental reasons alone though
you are completely missing the point mate.
desalinated water STARTS at the lowest possible point in the catchment. Rain water does not.
the issue with water networks is they work great when you have the source (usually dams) upstream, water essentially is gravity fed throughout the network with only some localised pumping for certain elevated locations. wastewater again gravity fed towards treatment plants at the lowest point (usually the ocean), so usually, its fairly efficient, despite still requiring enormous amounts of energy.
this doesnt solve that. it has the source where the end point is. the desalinated water needs to be pumped up, to then be gravity fed through the network. In some places, it is worth the cost and energy due to water scarcity, and im not knocking the technology. but claiming its cheaper than tap water is patently false because the distribution cost is far higher
but maybe 100k people bought the big ones then, now a AAA title can sell millions or tens of millions of copies
cool, but the real cost of desalination is transporting the desalinated water upstream, which presumably would also need to be done here
please don’t give them ideas
